Description

本発明は、投入された貨幣を金種毎に振り分けて各々の収納庫に収納するとともに、出金指示により釣銭を演算して各収納庫から貨幣を出金する貨幣処理機に関する。   The present invention relates to a money handling machine that sorts inserted coins for each denomination and stores them in each storage, and calculates change according to a withdrawal instruction to withdraw money from each storage.

スーパーマーケット等のＰＯＳ（Pint Of Sales）レジには、預かり金の入金及び釣銭の出金を行うための貨幣処理機が使用されている。このような貨幣処理機は、通常ＰＯＳ等の上位機からの出金指示（釣銭指示）に対して、出金金額を最小の金種枚数に構成して出金している。また、出金指示に対して収納貨幣に不足金種があった場合には、その不足金種の一つ下の額面の金種で再構成して出金している。   In a POS (Pint Of Sales) cash register such as a supermarket, a money handling machine for depositing deposits and dispensing changes is used. Such a money handling machine is configured to withdraw money with a minimum denomination amount in response to a withdrawal instruction (change instruction) from a host machine such as a normal POS. Further, when there is a shortage denomination in the stored money in response to the withdrawal instruction, the money is deconstructed with the denomination of the face value immediately below the shortage denomination.

一方で、収納庫がフル状態になって預かり金の収納ができなくなった場合には、レジを停止させてしまうことになる。これに対しては、収納庫の上流側（入金側）に収納庫に入りきれない貨幣を待避収納するオーバーフロー庫を備えるか、あるいは収納庫の下流側（出金側）に収納庫に入りきれなくなった貨幣を待避収納するオーバーフロー庫を備えたものが知られている（例えば、特許文献１〜３参照）。このオーバーフロー庫は通常、出金のための繰り出し機構を持たない構成となっている。   On the other hand, if the storage becomes full and the deposit can no longer be stored, the cashier is stopped. On the other hand, an overflow storage is provided on the upstream side (payment side) of the storage to store money that cannot be stored in the storage, or the storage can be stored downstream (withdrawal) of the storage. What is equipped with the overflow storage which saves and stores the lost money is known (for example, refer patent documents 1-3). This overflow warehouse is usually configured not to have a payout mechanism for withdrawal.

本発明では上記課題を解決するために、投入された貨幣を金種毎に振り分けて計数し、前記金種毎に設けられた収納庫もしくは混合金種の収納庫に収納し、上位制御部からの出金指示に基づいて金種及び枚数を決定して前記収納庫から釣銭を出金する貨幣処理機において、前記出金指示金額を前記上位制御部から受け取る受取部と、受け取った前記出金指示金額に応じて金種及び枚数を演算する演算部と、前記各収納庫の貨幣収納状態を検知する検知手段と、を備え、前記演算部は前記検知手段の検知結果に応じて前記出金指示金額の金種及び枚数を演算することを特徴とする貨幣処理機が提供される。   In the present invention, in order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the input money is distributed and counted for each denomination, stored in a storage provided for each denomination or a storage of mixed denominations, and from the upper control unit. In a money processing machine that determines the denomination and number of coins based on the withdrawal instruction of the storage and dispenses change from the storage, a receiving unit that receives the withdrawal instruction amount from the host control unit, and the received withdrawal A calculation unit that calculates a denomination and the number of coins according to an instruction amount; and a detection unit that detects a money storage state of each storage. The calculation unit is configured to detect the withdrawal according to a detection result of the detection unit. There is provided a money handling machine characterized by calculating the denomination and the number of instructions.

このような貨幣処理機によれば、各収納庫の貨幣収納状態に応じて出金指示金額の金種及び枚数を演算するので、オーバーフロー庫等の待避収納部を設けずとも、収納庫がフル状態になった場合でもレジを停止させることなく、また、オーバーフロー庫等の待避収納部に収納して貨幣を出金に関して「死に金」とすることがない。   According to such a money handling machine, since the denomination and the number of withdrawal instruction amounts are calculated according to the money storage state of each storage, the storage is full without providing a retracting storage such as an overflow storage. Even if it becomes a state, the cash register is not stopped, and it is stored in a retreat storage unit such as an overflow store, so that the money is not “dead money” with respect to withdrawal.

本発明の貨幣処理機は、各収納庫の貨幣収納状態に応じて出金指示金額の金種及び枚数を演算するので、オーバーフロー庫等の待避収納部を設けずとも、収納庫がフル状態になった場合でもレジを停止させることなく、また、オーバーフロー庫等の待避収納部に収納して貨幣を出金に関して「死に金」とすることがないという利点がある。   Since the money handling machine according to the present invention calculates the denomination and number of withdrawal instruction amounts according to the money storage state of each storage, the storage can be in a full state without providing a storage unit such as an overflow storage. Even if it becomes, there is an advantage that the cash register is not stopped and the money is not stored as “dead money” with respect to the withdrawal without being stopped and stored in a retreat storage such as an overflow storage.

以下、本発明の実施の形態を図面を参照して説明する。
図１は本発明の実施の形態の貨幣処理機の構成を示すブロック図である。ここでは、硬貨を処理する硬貨処理機の場合を示す。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a money handling machine according to an embodiment of the present invention. Here, a case of a coin processor that processes coins is shown.

この貨幣処理機は、硬貨が投入される投入部１、硬貨を直径により金種毎に振り分けて計数する振分部３、金種毎に振り分けられた硬貨をそれぞれの収納庫に収納するとともに計数払出しを行う収納庫部４、収納庫部４から払出された硬貨を保留し搬送する出金搬送部５、収納庫部４から払出された硬貨を出金するトレー状の出金口６が設けられている。   The money handling machine includes an insertion unit 1 into which coins are inserted, a sorting unit 3 that sorts and counts coins by denomination by diameter, and stores and counts coins sorted by denomination in respective storages. A storage unit 4 for paying out, a withdrawal transport unit 5 for holding and transporting coins paid out from the storage unit 4, and a tray-like withdrawal port 6 for dispensing coins paid out from the storage unit 4 are provided. It has been.

上記収納庫部４は、５００円収納庫４ａ、１０円収納庫４ｂ、１００円収納庫４ｃ、５円収納庫４ｄ、５０円収納庫４ｅ、及び１円収納庫４ｆに分かれている。そして、投入された硬貨は振分部３にて直径の小さい順に各々の収納庫４ａ〜４ｆに収納されていく。   The storage unit 4 is divided into a 500 yen storage 4a, a 10 yen storage 4b, a 100 yen storage 4c, a 5 yen storage 4d, a 50 yen storage 4e, and a 1 yen storage 4f. And the thrown coin is stored in each storage 4a-4f in order with a small diameter in the distribution part 3. As shown in FIG.

また、図示しないＰＯＳレジ（上位制御部）から出金指示金額（釣銭金額）を受け取る受取部１１と、受け取った出金指示金額に応じて金種及び枚数を演算する演算部１２と、各収納庫４ａ〜４ｆの貨幣収納状態を検知するそれぞれの検知手段１３ａ〜１３ｆが設けられている。   Also, a receiving unit 11 that receives a withdrawal instruction amount (change amount) from a POS register (not shown), a calculation unit 12 that calculates the denomination and number of sheets according to the received withdrawal instruction amount, and each storage Each detection means 13a-13f which detects the money storage state of storage 4a-4f is provided.

上記演算部１２は、検知手段１３ａ〜１３ｆの検知結果に応じて出金指示金額に対する最小構成の金種及び枚数を演算する。具体的には、検知手段１３ａ〜１３ｆは各々の収納庫４ａ〜４ｆの収納貨幣のフルもしくはニアフル状態を検知し、演算部１２はそのフルもしくはニアフル状態を検知した収納庫４ａ〜４ｆの金種を優先的に割り当てて演算する。   The computing unit 12 computes the denomination and the number of coins of the minimum configuration for the withdrawal instruction amount according to the detection results of the detection means 13a to 13f. Specifically, the detection means 13a to 13f detect the full or near-full state of the money stored in the respective storages 4a to 4f, and the calculation unit 12 denominations of the storages 4a to 4f that detect the full or near-full state. Is assigned with priority.

上記の貨幣処理機は、投入された貨幣を金種毎に振り分けて計数し、金種毎に設けられた収納庫もしくは混合金種の収納庫に収納し、ＰＯＳレジからの出金指示に基づいて金種及び枚数を決定して収納庫から釣銭を出金するものである。なお図示していないが、本実施の形態の貨幣処理機には、オーバーフロー庫と、このオーバーフロー庫に貨幣を入金側及び出金側から収納するためのオーバーフローゲートが設けられているが、これらのオーバーフロー庫及びオーバーフローゲートはなくてもよい。   The money handling machine distributes and counts the inserted money for each denomination, stores it in a storage provided for each denomination or a storage of mixed denominations, and based on a withdrawal instruction from the POS cash register. Then, the denomination and the number of coins are determined and the change is withdrawn from the storage. Although not shown in the drawings, the money handling machine of the present embodiment is provided with an overflow warehouse and an overflow gate for storing money from the depositing side and the withdrawal side in the overflow warehouse. There is no need for an overflow storage and an overflow gate.

図２は上記構成の貨幣処理機の動作の流れを示す図である。投入部１に投入（Ｓ１）された硬貨は、上記のオーバーフローゲートを経て（Ｓ２）、振分部３により金種別に振り分けられて（Ｓ３）、収納庫部４に収納されるか（Ｓ４）、あるいはオーバーフロー庫に収納される（Ｓ８）。また、出金時には硬貨が収納庫部４から出金搬送部５に払出され（Ｓ５）、オーバーフローゲートを経て（Ｓ６）、出金口６に排出されるか（Ｓ７）、あるいはオーバーフロー庫へ収納される（Ｓ８）。   FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an operation flow of the money handling machine having the above-described configuration. Are the coins inserted into the input unit 1 (S1) passed through the overflow gate (S2), sorted into denominations by the distribution unit 3 (S3), and stored in the storage unit 4 (S4)? Or, it is stored in the overflow box (S8). Further, at the time of withdrawal, coins are paid out from the storage unit 4 to the withdrawal transport unit 5 (S5), passed through the overflow gate (S6), discharged to the withdrawal port 6 (S7), or stored in the overflow store. (S8).

次に、上記のＰＯＳレジに接続された貨幣処理機を釣銭機として使用する場合の具体的な動作について、順を追って説明する。
（１）お客の買い上げ品の登録（スキャン）が終了すると、ＰＯＳレジは合計額を計算し、その金額をＰＯＳレジの表示部に表示する。そして、通常はＰＯＳレジの担当者がその金額を読み上げ、お客は買い上げ額以上の貨幣を預かり金としてＰＯＳレジの担当者に渡す。 Next, a specific operation when the money handling machine connected to the POS cash register is used as a change machine will be described step by step.
(1) When the registration (scanning) of the customer's purchase is completed, the POS register calculates the total amount and displays the amount on the display unit of the POS register. Usually, the person in charge of the POS register reads out the amount, and the customer hands over the money more than the purchase amount to the person in charge of the POS register as a deposit.

（２）ＰＯＳレジの担当者は、預かり金額を読み上げるとともに、ＰＯＳレジにその金額を打刻する。
（３）ＰＯＳレジは、「釣銭金額」＝「預かり金額（打刻額）−買い上げ額」を計算し、貨幣処理機に通知する。 (2) The person in charge at the POS register reads out the deposit amount and stamps the amount in the POS register.
(3) The POS register calculates “change amount” = “cash amount (stamped amount) −purchase amount” and notifies the money handling machine.

（４）貨幣処理機は、受け取った金額に従い、各貨幣の金種及び枚数を演算し、釣銭を出金する。
（５）ＰＯＳレジの担当者は、レシート及び上記貨幣処理機から出金された貨幣をお客に渡す。 (4) The money handling machine calculates the denomination and number of each money according to the amount received, and withdraws change.
(5) The person in charge at the POS register hands over the receipt and money withdrawn from the money handling machine to the customer.

（６）お客が納得し、ＰＯＳレジを離れたら、預かり金を貨幣処理機に入金する。
以上で、貨幣の入金及び釣銭の出金が終了する。その際、上述のように出金に際しては最小構成の金種及び枚数を演算するが、上記の（４）で演算した金種、枚数が収納庫部４に存在しない場合は、その一つ下の額面に変換して出金する。例えば、９９９円の出金であれば、最小構成の金種及び枚数は表１に示すようになる。 (6) When the customer is satisfied and leaves the POS register, deposit the deposit into the money handling machine.
This completes the deposit of money and the withdrawal of change. At that time, as described above, the minimum denomination and the number of coins are calculated when withdrawing money. If the denomination and the number of coins calculated in the above (4) do not exist in the storage unit 4, it is one lower. Convert to the face value of and withdraw. For example, if the withdrawal is 999 yen, the minimum denomination and number are as shown in Table 1.

Figure 2007219828
Figure 2007219828

しかし、例えば収納庫部４の５０円硬貨の収納枚数が０の場合は、１０円硬貨５枚で代替して出金するので、収納庫部４の収納枚数及び実際の払出し（出金）は表２に示すようになる。また、払出し後の収納庫部４の収納枚数は表３に示すようになる。   However, if the number of 50 yen coins stored in the storage unit 4 is 0, for example, 5 10-yen coins are used for withdrawal, so the storage number of the storage unit 4 and the actual payout (withdrawal) are As shown in Table 2. Table 3 shows the number of sheets stored in the storage unit 4 after paying out.

Figure 2007219828

Figure 2007219828

次に、上記の状態から（６）で別の取引きにて１００円硬貨が３枚入金された場合、１００円収納庫４ｃに収納可能なフル枚数が１２０枚であるとすると、１１９枚＋３枚＝１２２枚となるため、１２２枚−１２０枚＝２枚をオーバーフロー庫へ収納する。したがって、収納庫部４の収納枚数は表４に示すようになる。   Next, from the above state, when three 100 yen coins are deposited in another transaction in (6), assuming that the full number that can be stored in the 100 yen storage 4c is 120, 119 + 3 Since 122 sheets = 122 sheets, 122 sheets−120 sheets = 2 sheets are stored in the overflow box. Accordingly, the number of sheets stored in the storage unit 4 is as shown in Table 4.

Figure 2007219828
Figure 2007219828

ここで、本実施の形態の貨幣処理機では、上記のように検知手段１３ａ〜１３ｆにより各々の収納庫４ａ〜４ｆの収納貨幣のフルもしくはニアフル状態を検知しており、例えば１００円収納庫４ｃのニアフル枚数を１０１枚とした場合、上記の９９９円の出金時には収納庫部４の収納枚数及び実際の払出しは表５に示すようになる。また、払出し後の収納庫部４の収納枚数は表６に示すようになる。   Here, in the money handling machine according to the present embodiment, as described above, the detecting means 13a to 13f detect the full or near-full state of the money stored in the respective storages 4a to 4f, for example, a 100 yen storage 4c. When the near-full number is 101, the storage number of the storage unit 4 and the actual payout are as shown in Table 5 when 999 yen is withdrawn. Table 6 shows the number of sheets stored in the storage unit 4 after paying out.

このように、本実施の形態では、各収納庫４ａ〜４ｆの貨幣収納状態に応じて出金指示金額の金種及び枚数を演算するので、オーバーフロー庫等の待避収納部を設けずとも、収納庫がフル状態になった場合でもＰＯＳレジを停止させることなく、また、オーバーフロー庫等の待避収納部に収納して貨幣を出金に関して「死に金」とすることがない。   As described above, in this embodiment, since the denomination and the number of withdrawal instruction amounts are calculated according to the money storage states of the respective storages 4a to 4f, the storage is performed without providing a retracting storage unit such as an overflow storage. Even when the storage becomes full, the POS cash register is not stopped, and the money is not stored as “dead money” with respect to the withdrawal by storing it in a storage unit such as an overflow storage.

また、検知手段１３ａ〜１３ｆにより各々の収納庫４ａ〜４ｆの収納貨幣のフルもしくはニアフル状態を検知し、演算部１２にてそのフルもしくはニアフル状態を検知した収納庫４ａ〜４ｆの金種を優先的に割り当てて演算するが、この優先的に割り当てる金種はあらかじめ個別に設定することができ、優先的に割り当てる金種の枚数の下限もあらかじめ設定することができる。   Further, the detecting means 13a to 13f detect the full or near-full state of the money stored in the respective storages 4a to 4f, and the calculation unit 12 prioritizes the denominations of the storages 4a to 4f that detect the full or near-full state. The denominations to be preferentially assigned can be individually set in advance, and the lower limit of the number of denominations to be preferentially assigned can be set in advance.

表７に上記のフル及びニアフル枚数の設定例を示す。また、表８に優先出金の設定例を示し、表９にその優先出金の下限枚数の設定例（優先出金するとその枚数を下回る場合に優先出金しないための設定例）を示す。   Table 7 shows examples of setting the full and near full numbers. Table 8 shows an example of setting priority withdrawals, and Table 9 shows an example of setting the lower limit number of priority withdrawals (setting example for preferential withdrawal when the number of priority withdrawals falls below that number).

また、検知手段１３ａ〜１３ｆにより検知した各収納庫４ａ〜４ｆのフルもしくはニアフル状態及び上記優先的に割り当てた金種を表示するようにしてもよい。
なお、上述の実施の形態では硬貨を扱う硬貨処理機の場合について説明したが、本発明の貨幣処理機は紙幣を扱う紙幣処理機の場合でもよく、あるいは紙幣と硬貨の両方を扱う貨幣処理機であってもよい。 Moreover, you may make it display the full or near-full state of each storage 4a-4f detected by the detection means 13a-13f, and the said money type allocated preferentially.
In the above-described embodiment, the case of a coin handling machine that handles coins has been described. However, the money handling machine of the present invention may be a banknote handling machine that handles banknotes, or a money handling machine that handles both banknotes and coins. It may be.
