Description
本発明は、金融機関の店舗等に設置される現金自動預払機等の自動取引装置に組み込まれる紙幣入出金機等の現金処理装置およびそれを備えた自動取引装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a cash processing apparatus such as a banknote depositing / dispensing machine incorporated in an automatic transaction apparatus such as an automatic teller machine installed in a store or the like of a financial institution, and an automatic transaction apparatus including the same.
一般に、現金自動預払機に設けられた紙幣入出金機においては、搬送路に設けられた紙幣検知センサが、所定の搬送時間で現金としての紙幣の通過を検出しないことにより紙幣のジャムの検出を行っている。
また、紙幣のジャムが検出された場合には、現金自動預払機はその運用を中止し、係員によるジャム紙幣の除去作業後に、運用を再開している。
Generally, in a banknote depositing / dispensing machine provided in an automatic teller machine, a banknote detection sensor provided in a transport path detects a jam of a banknote by not detecting the passage of a banknote as cash in a predetermined transport time. Is going.
Moreover, when the jam of a banknote is detected, the automatic teller machine stops the operation, and resumes the operation after the staff removes the jammed banknote.
一方、紙幣のジャムの検出を、紙幣検知センサによる紙幣の搬送時間で行っている場合には、何らかの要因、例えば搬送路における滑りや、軽度のジャムの発生による紙幣の一時的な滞留により紙幣の通過が遅れたときにも、紙幣のジャムが検出されてしまうことがある。
この場合に、紙幣のジャムが検出される度に現金自動預払機の運用を中止し、係員によるジャム紙幣の除去作業を行うと、現金自動預払機の稼動効率を低下させると共に、係員の負担を増大させるという問題が生ずる。
On the other hand, when the banknote jam is detected by the banknote detection time by the banknote detection sensor, for example, slipping in the transport path or temporary retention of the banknote due to the occurrence of a slight jam, Even when the passage is delayed, a paper jam may be detected.
In this case, the operation of the automatic teller machine is stopped every time a jam of the banknote is detected, and the removal of the jammed banknote by the attendant reduces the operating efficiency of the automatic teller machine and reduces the burden on the attendant. The problem of increasing arises.
このような、問題点を解決するために、従来の現金自動預払機は、顧客が投入した紙幣を１枚ずつ分離して繰出すと共に顧客に引渡す紙幣を集積する接客部と、搬送された紙幣の真偽や正損、金種等を鑑別する鑑別部と、顧客が投入した紙幣を一時保留する金種別一時保留板と、出金に用いる紙幣や入金された紙幣を収納する紙幣収納部と、出金には適さない紙幣と鑑別された紙幣を収納する出金リジェクト紙幣収納部と、前記の各部の間を接続して紙幣を搬送する複数の搬送路とを有する紙幣入出金機を備え、紙幣入出金機の出金処理における紙幣収納部から接客部の集積部に至る出金紙幣の搬送路において、紙幣が紙幣検知センサ間を所定の搬送時間以内で通過しないことにより紙幣収納部から繰出された紙幣のジャムを検出し、ジャムが検出された場合に紙幣の搬送を一旦停止させ、出金紙幣の搬送路を逆方向に回転させて除去動作を行い、搬送路上に残留する残留紙幣を金種別一時保留板上に集積し、全ての残留紙幣が集積されたときに、これらの残留紙幣を各紙幣収納部の近傍に設けたジャム紙幣収納ボックスへ収納し、除去動作の終了後に再び出金処理を続行させて、出金処理におけるジャム復旧処理の自動化を図っている。 In order to solve such problems, the conventional automatic teller machine separates and feeds banknotes inserted by a customer one by one, and at the same time collects banknotes to be delivered to customers, and conveyed banknotes. Discriminating part for discriminating the authenticity, correctness, denomination, denomination, etc., denomination temporary holding plate for temporarily holding banknotes inserted by customers, banknote storage part for storing banknotes used for withdrawals and banknotes deposited A banknote depositing / dispensing machine having a withdrawal banknote storage part for storing banknotes identified as banknotes not suitable for withdrawal, and a plurality of transport paths for transporting banknotes by connecting the above-mentioned parts. The banknote does not pass between the banknote detection sensors within a predetermined transport time in the delivery path of the withdrawal banknote from the banknote storage part to the stacking part of the customer service part in the withdrawal process of the banknote depositing and dispensing machine. Detects jammed banknotes, and jams When it is detected, the conveyance of the banknotes is temporarily stopped, the conveyance path of the withdrawal banknotes is rotated in the reverse direction, the removal operation is performed, and the remaining banknotes remaining on the conveyance path are accumulated on the temporary detention plate, When the remaining banknotes are accumulated, the remaining banknotes are stored in a jam banknote storage box provided in the vicinity of each banknote storage unit, and the withdrawal process is continued again after the removal operation is completed. We are trying to automate the jam recovery process.
また、除去動作を所定の回数繰り返しても、残留紙幣の全てを集積できない場合には、現金自動預払機の運用を中止して係員によるジャム紙幣の除去作業を行っている（例えば、特許文献１参照。）。
しかしながら、上述した従来の技術においては、紙幣のジャムを検出した場合に、出金紙幣の搬送路を逆方向に回転させて、全ての残留紙幣が金種別一時保留板上に集積されたときに、除去動作の終了を判定しているため、ジャムが発生した搬送路を紙幣が順方向に正常に通過するか否かの判定が困難であり、ジャム検出時の自動復旧後に再び出金処理を続行させたときに、再度ジャムが発生する場合があり、紙幣入出金機の稼動効率を低下させるという問題がある。 However, in the above-described conventional technology, when a jam of a banknote is detected, the transport path of the withdrawal banknote is rotated in the reverse direction, and all remaining banknotes are accumulated on the denomination temporary holding plate. Since the end of the removal operation is determined, it is difficult to determine whether or not the banknote normally passes through the conveyance path where the jam has occurred, and the withdrawal process is performed again after automatic recovery at the time of jam detection. When it is continued, a jam may occur again, which causes a problem that the operating efficiency of the banknote depositing / dispensing machine is lowered.
また、残留紙幣の全てを集積できない場合には、現金自動預払機の運用を中止して係員によるジャム紙幣の除去作業を行っているため、係員はジャム紙幣の除去作業において全ての搬送路を点検して除去作業を行わなければならず、ジャム紙幣の点検範囲が広範囲になって、係員の負担が増大すると共に、除去作業に時間を要し、紙幣入出金機の稼動効率を著しく低下させるという問題がある。 In addition, when all the remaining banknotes cannot be collected, the operation of the automatic teller machine is stopped and the clerk removes the jammed banknotes. Therefore, the clerk inspects all the conveyance paths during the removal of the jammed banknotes. The removal work must be performed, the inspection range of the jam bill becomes wide, the burden on the staff increases, the removal work takes time, and the operation efficiency of the bill depositing and dispensing machine is remarkably lowered. There's a problem.
更に、ジャム紙幣の除去作業において、除去もれが生ずると、装置内に残った紙幣により紙幣の有高が変化してしまうという問題がある。
本発明は、上記の問題点を解決するためになされたもので、現金の搬送中にジャムが検出された場合に、その発生箇所おける搬送路の順方向の搬送状態を確実に判定する手段を提供することを目的とする。
Furthermore, in the removal operation of the jam bill, there is a problem in that the height of the bill changes due to the bill remaining in the apparatus when the removal is lost.
The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems. In the case where a jam is detected during the transport of cash, a means for reliably determining the transport state in the forward direction of the transport path at the occurrence location is provided. The purpose is to provide.
上記課題を解決するために、本発明は、現金の受入れあるいは現金の出金を行う接客部と、現金を集積して一時保留する一時保留部と、これら各部の間で現金を搬送する搬送路とを備えた現金処理装置において、前記接客部から前記一時保留部への現金の搬送中に、ジャムを検出した場合に、搬送路上に残留する現金を、前記ジャムの発生箇所を順方向に通過させて、前記一時保留部および接客部へ搬送して集積することを特徴とする。 In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a customer service unit that accepts cash or withdraws cash, a temporary storage unit that accumulates and temporarily holds cash, and a transport path that transports cash between these units. When a jam is detected during the transfer of cash from the customer service unit to the temporary storage unit, the cash remaining on the transfer path passes through the occurrence point of the jam in the forward direction. Then, it is transported to the temporary holding unit and the customer service unit and accumulated.
また、現金の受入れあるいは現金の出金を行う接客部と、現金を集積して一時保留する一時保留部と、現金を収納する現金収納部と、これら各部の間で現金を搬送する搬送路とを備えた現金処理装置において、前記一時保留部から前記現金収納部への現金の搬送中に、ジャムを検出した場合に、搬送路上に残留する現金を、前記一時保留部に搬送して集積した後に、該一時保留部に集積されている現金を、前記ジャムの発生箇所を順方向に通過させて、前記現金収納部に搬送して収納することを特徴とする。 In addition, a customer service unit that accepts or withdraws cash, a temporary storage unit that accumulates and temporarily holds cash, a cash storage unit that stores cash, and a conveyance path that transports cash between these units When the jam is detected during the transfer of the cash from the temporary holding unit to the cash storage unit, the cash remaining on the transfer path is transferred to the temporary holding unit and accumulated. Later, the cash accumulated in the temporary storage unit is transported and stored in the cash storage unit through the jam occurrence point in the forward direction.
これにより、本発明は、ジャム発生箇所おける搬送路の順方向の搬送状態を確実に判定することができ、ジャム検出時の自動復旧後の処理の再実行時のジャムの再発を確実に防止することができると共に、係員の介在機会を低減させて紙幣入出金機の稼動効率の向上を図ることができるという効果が得られる。 As a result, the present invention can reliably determine the transport state in the forward direction of the transport path at the jam occurrence location, and reliably prevent the reoccurrence of the jam at the time of re-execution of the processing after the automatic recovery at the time of jam detection. In addition, it is possible to obtain an effect that the operation efficiency of the banknote depositing / dispensing machine can be improved by reducing the opportunity for the attendant to intervene.

The operation of the above configuration will be described.
First, the deposit transaction processing of the automatic teller machine 1 will be described.
When a customer (user) selects a deposit transaction on the transaction selection screen displayed on the screen of the customer operation unit 5 of the automatic teller machine 1 and inserts a transaction card into the card handling unit 6, the automatic teller machine 1 The main control unit 2 reads the card information by the card handling unit 6 and transmits it to the host computer 3 via the communication line.
そして、ホストコンピュータ３から現金自動預払機１に取引を許可する情報が送られてくると、主制御部２は紙幣の取込指令を紙幣入出金機７の制御部１９に送信し、これを受信した制御部１９は、接客部１１のシャッタを開き、顧客が入金室１１ａへ紙幣を一括して投入するとシャッタを閉じて、搬送路１７に設けられた各紙幣検知センサ１８により紙幣の通過を監視しながら紙幣の入金処理における取込処理を実行する。 And when the information which permits transaction is sent to the automatic teller machine 1 from the host computer 3, the main control part 2 will transmit the taking-in instruction | indication of a banknote to the control part 19 of the banknote depositing / withdrawing machine 7, and this will be transmitted. The received control unit 19 opens the shutter of the customer service unit 11, closes the shutter when the customer puts banknotes into the depositing chamber 11 a at once, and passes the banknotes by the banknote detection sensors 18 provided in the conveyance path 17. While monitoring, the take-in process in the banknote deposit process is executed.
すなわち、制御部１９は、記憶部２０の各紙幣検知センサ１８の通過枚数を「０」にリセットし、図８に示すように、図示しない分離機構により入金室１１ａから紙幣を１枚ずつ分離して搬送路１７ａ、１７ｂにより鑑別部１２に搬送し、鑑別部１２により紙幣の正損、金種等の鑑別、および連鎖、斜行等の搬送異常の検出を行う。
鑑別部１２による鑑別の結果、金種が確定した入金可能な真券と鑑別された紙幣は計数された後、搬送路１７ｄにより一時保留部１３に搬送されて集積され、一時保留される。
That is, the control unit 19 resets the number of passing bills of each bill detection sensor 18 in the storage unit 20 to “0”, and separates bills one by one from the depositing chamber 11a by a separation mechanism (not shown) as shown in FIG. Then, the paper is conveyed to the discrimination unit 12 by the conveyance paths 17a and 17b, and the discrimination unit 12 performs the discrimination of banknotes, discrimination of denominations, and detection of conveyance abnormalities such as chaining and skewing.
As a result of discrimination by the discrimination unit 12, banknotes discriminated from depositable genuine bills whose denominations have been determined are counted, then transported to the temporary storage unit 13 by the transport path 17d, accumulated, and temporarily stored.
また、金種不明と鑑別された紙幣や、搬送異常が検出された紙幣は、入金リジェクト紙幣として搬送路１７ｄ、１７ｅ、１７ｃにより接客部１１の集積室１１ｂに搬送されて集積される。
このとき、制御部１９は、各紙幣検知センサ１８を紙幣が通過する度にその通過枚数をカウントして記憶部２０に紙幣検知センサ１８別の通過枚数を記憶する。
Moreover, the banknote discriminated as unknown denomination and the banknote in which conveyance abnormality was detected are conveyed by the conveyance paths 17d, 17e, and 17c to the accumulation | storage room 11b of the customer service part 11 as a payment rejection banknote.
At this time, the control unit 19 counts the number of passages each time a bill passes through each bill detection sensor 18 and stores the number of passages for each bill detection sensor 18 in the storage unit 20.
入金室１１ａに投入された紙幣が全て繰出されて鑑別および集積が終了すると、制御部１９は、集積室１１ｂに入金リジェクト紙幣が集積されている場合は、シャッタを開いて顧客に紙幣を返却する。
そして、制御部１９は、一時保留部１３に集積されている紙幣の金額を主制御部２へ送信し、主制御部２は顧客操作部５の画面にその金額を表示する。この金額を見て顧客が確認ボタンを押下すると、主制御部２は制御部１９へ紙幣の収納指令を送信し、これを受信した制御部１９は、搬送路１７に設けられた各紙幣検知センサ１８により紙幣の通過を監視しながら紙幣の入金処理における収納処理を実行する。
When all the banknotes thrown into the depositing chamber 11a are drawn out and the discrimination and stacking are completed, the control unit 19 opens the shutter and returns the banknotes to the customer when the depositing reject banknotes are stacked in the stacking chamber 11b. .
Then, the control unit 19 transmits the amount of banknotes accumulated in the temporary storage unit 13 to the main control unit 2, and the main control unit 2 displays the amount on the screen of the customer operation unit 5. When the customer presses the confirmation button after seeing this amount of money, the main control unit 2 transmits a banknote storage command to the control unit 19, and the control unit 19 that has received this command receives each banknote detection sensor provided in the transport path 17. While the passage of the banknote is monitored by 18, the storing process in the banknote depositing process is executed.
すなわち、制御部１９は、図９に示すように、一時保留部１３に集積されている紙幣を、図示しない分離機構により繰出して搬送路１７ｄにより鑑別部１２に搬送し、この鑑別部１２で正損、金種等の鑑別を行う。
その鑑別の結果、正券と鑑別された紙幣は、搬送路１７ｂ、１７ｊ、１７ｆにより該当する金種の紙幣収納部１４に搬送されて金種別に収納され、損券と鑑別された紙幣は、搬送路１７ｂ、１７ｊ、１７ｆにより紙幣収納部１４ｅに搬送されて収納される。

Every time the banknote detection sensors 18f to 18j provided on the banknote detect passage of banknotes, "1" is added to the number of stored banknote storage sections 14 in the storage section 20, and the number of stored banknote storage sections 14 is updated. To do.
現金自動預払機１の出金取引処理の場合は、現金自動預払機１の顧客操作部５の画面に表示された取引選択画面で、顧客が出金取引を選択し、カード取扱部６に取引カードを挿入すると、現金自動預払機１の主制御部２は、カード取扱部６によってカード情報を読取る。
続いて、顧客が顧客操作部５に表示される暗証番号入力画面に従って暗証番号を入力し、更に顧客操作部５に表示される金額入力画面に従って出金金額を入力すると、主制御部２は、これらの情報を通信回線を介してホストコンピュータ３に送信する。
In the case of the withdrawal transaction processing of the automated teller machine 1, the customer selects the withdrawal transaction on the transaction selection screen displayed on the screen of the customer operation unit 5 of the automated teller machine 1, and the transaction is made to the card handling unit 6. When the card is inserted, the main control unit 2 of the automatic teller machine 1 reads the card information by the card handling unit 6.
Subsequently, when the customer inputs the password according to the password input screen displayed on the customer operation unit 5 and further inputs the withdrawal amount according to the amount input screen displayed on the customer operation unit 5, the main control unit 2 These pieces of information are transmitted to the host computer 3 via the communication line.
そして、ホストコンピュータ３から現金自動預払機１に取引を許可する情報が送られてくると、主制御部２は紙幣の出金指令を紙幣入出金機７の制御部１９に送信し、これを受信した制御部１９は、搬送路１７に設けられた各紙幣検知センサ１８により紙幣の通過を監視しながら紙幣の出金処理を実行する。
すなわち、制御部１９は、記憶部２０の各紙幣検知センサ１８の通過枚数を「０」にリセットし、図１０に示すように、顧客が入力した出金金額に対応する紙幣を該当する紙幣収納部１４から図示しない分離機構により繰出して搬送路１７ｆ、１７ｊ、１７ｂにより鑑別部１２に搬送し、鑑別部１２により紙幣の正損、金種等の鑑別、および連鎖、斜行等の搬送異常の検出を行う。
And when the information which permits a transaction is sent from the host computer 3 to the automatic teller machine 1, the main control part 2 will transmit the payment instruction | indication of a banknote to the control part 19 of the banknote depositing / withdrawing machine 7, and this will be transmitted. The received control unit 19 executes a banknote withdrawal process while monitoring the passage of banknotes by each banknote detection sensor 18 provided in the transport path 17.
That is, the control unit 19 resets the passing number of each banknote detection sensor 18 in the storage unit 20 to “0”, and as shown in FIG. 10, the banknote corresponding to the withdrawal amount input by the customer is stored in the corresponding banknote. It is fed out from the section 14 by a separation mechanism (not shown) and transported to the discrimination section 12 through the transport paths 17f, 17j, 17b. The discrimination section 12 discriminates banknotes, denominations of denominations, etc., and abnormal transport such as chaining and skewing. Perform detection.
鑑別部１２による鑑別の結果、金種不明と鑑別された紙幣や、搬送異常が検出された紙幣は、出金リジェクト紙幣として搬送路１７ｄ、１７ｇ、１７ｆ、１７ｈにより、リジェクト紙幣収納部１６に搬送されて収納される。
また、鑑別部１２で金種が確定した出金可能な紙幣は、搬送路１７ｄ、１７ｅ、１７ｃにより集積室１１ｂに搬送されて集積される。
As a result of discrimination by the discrimination unit 12, banknotes identified as having an unknown denomination or banknotes in which conveyance abnormality is detected are conveyed to the reject banknote storage unit 16 through the transport paths 17 d, 17 g, 17 f, and 17 h as withdrawal reject banknotes. And stored.
Also, the banknotes that can be withdrawn whose denomination is determined by the discrimination unit 12 are transported to the stacking chamber 11b by the transport paths 17d, 17e, and 17c and stacked.
このとき、制御部１９は、各紙幣検知センサ１８を紙幣が通過する度にその通過枚数をカウントして記憶部２０に紙幣検知センサ１８別の通過枚数を記憶すると共に、紙幣収納部１４ａ〜１４ｄに設けられた紙幣検知センサ１８ｆ〜１８ｉにより紙幣の通過を検知する度に記憶部２０の当該紙幣収納部１４の収納枚数から「１」を減じて、各紙幣収納部１４の収納枚数を更新する。 At this time, the control unit 19 counts the number of passages each time a bill passes through each bill detection sensor 18, stores the number of passages for each bill detection sensor 18 in the storage unit 20, and bill storage units 14 a to 14 d. Each time the passage of banknotes is detected by the banknote detection sensors 18f to 18i provided in the storage section 20, "1" is subtracted from the number of stored banknote storage sections 14 in the storage section 20, and the number of stored banknote storage sections 14 is updated. .
そして、出金金額分の紙幣が接客部１１の集積室１１ｂに集積されると制御部１９は、接客部１１のシャッタを開き、集積室１１ｂに集積されている出金紙幣を顧客が取出すとシャッタを閉じる。

A jam recovery process in the case where a jam occurs in the conveyance path 17 during the conveyance of banknotes when the deposit process and the withdrawal process are performed by the banknote depositing and dispensing machine 7 will be described below.
まず、図４に示すフローチャートを用い、Ｓで示すステップに従って、本実施例の紙幣入出金機７の入金処理の取込処理におけるジャム復旧処理について説明する。
なお、以下の説明においては、説明を判りやすくするため、紙幣の搬送中に、搬送路１７ｄの鑑別部１２の一時保留部１３側の出入口の近傍に設けられた紙幣検知センサ１８ｃを通過しようとする紙幣において、ジャムが検出された場合を例に説明する。
First, the jam recovery process in the taking-in process of the depositing process of the banknote depositing / dispensing machine 7 according to the present embodiment will be described using the flowchart shown in FIG.
In the following description, in order to make the description easy to understand, an attempt is made to pass the banknote detection sensor 18c provided in the vicinity of the entrance / exit on the temporary storage section 13 side of the discrimination section 12 of the transport path 17d during transport of the banknote. A case where a jam is detected in a banknote to be performed will be described as an example.
本説明は、取込処理であるので、搬送路１７ｂを搬送される紙幣が、紙幣検知センサ１８ｂを正常に通過した後に、紙幣検知センサ１８ｃを通過するまでの搬送時間が、記憶部２０のジャム判定時間テーブルの当該ジャム判定時間を超えたときに、ジャムの発生が検出される。
Ｓ１、紙幣入出金機７の制御部１９は、現金自動預払機１の主制御部２からの取込指令によって、紙幣入出金処理プログラムにより、記憶部２０の各紙幣検知センサ１８の通過枚数を「０」にリセットした後に、紙幣の取込処理を実行している。
Since this description is a take-in process, the conveyance time until the banknote conveyed by the conveyance path 17b passes the banknote detection sensor 18c normally after passing the banknote detection sensor 18b is a jam of the memory | storage part 20. The occurrence of a jam is detected when the jam determination time in the determination time table is exceeded.
S1, the control part 19 of the banknote depositing / withdrawing machine 7 determines the passage number of each banknote detection sensor 18 of the storage part 20 by the banknote depositing / withdrawing processing program according to the take-in command from the main control part 2 of the automatic teller machine 1. After resetting to “0”, the bill taking process is executed.
Ｓ２、これと並行して、制御部１９は、搬送路１７に設けられた各紙幣検知センサ１８の紙幣の通過枚数をカウントすると共に、時計機能により搬送方向に隣合う各紙幣検知センサ１８間の搬送時間を計測し、その搬送時間と記憶部２０から読出したジャム判定時間テーブルの当該ジャム判定時間とを比較しながらジャムの発生を監視しており、いずれかの紙幣検知センサ１８間の搬送時間が、ジャム判定時間テーブルの当該紙幣検知センサ１８間のジャム判定時間以上である場合に、ジャムの発生を判定してステップＳ３へ移行する。 In parallel with S2, the control unit 19 counts the number of banknotes passed by each banknote detection sensor 18 provided in the transport path 17, and between each banknote detection sensor 18 adjacent in the transport direction by a clock function. The conveyance time is measured, and the occurrence of the jam is monitored while comparing the conveyance time with the jam determination time in the jam determination time table read from the storage unit 20, and the conveyance time between any banknote detection sensors 18 is monitored. However, when it is more than the jam determination time between the said banknote detection sensors 18 of a jam determination time table, generation | occurrence | production of jam is determined and it transfers to step S3.
取込処理の終了までの間、つまり繰出元である接客部１１の入金室１１ａに投入された紙幣の繰出しが開始され、入金室１１ａの図示しない残留検知センサが紙幣を検知しなくなったときに繰出された紙幣が、集積先である一時保留部１３、または接客部１１の集積室１１ｂに搬送されて集積されるまで（図８参照）の間に、ジャムの発生を検出しない場合は、取込処理を正常に終了させ、主制御部２からの次の指令を待って待機する。 Until the end of the take-in process, that is, when the feeding of banknotes inserted into the depositing chamber 11a of the customer service section 11 that is the feeding source is started, and a residual detection sensor (not shown) of the depositing chamber 11a no longer detects the banknotes. If the occurrence of a jam is not detected until the fed banknotes are transported and accumulated in the stacking chamber 11b of the customer receiving unit 11 or the temporary storage unit 13 serving as a stacking destination (see FIG. 8), The process ends normally, and waits for the next command from the main control unit 2.
Ｓ３、取込処理における紙幣の搬送中にジャムを検出した制御部１９は、記憶部２０の紙幣通過箇所記録テーブルの各記録欄をクリアして、搬送路１７による紙幣の搬送を一旦停止させ、ジャムの発生箇所（本実施例では、紙幣検知センサ１８ｃ）を記憶部２０に記憶すると共に、取込処理中に各紙幣検知センサ１８がカウントした通過枚数を搬送前枚数として記憶部２０に一時保存する。 S3, the control unit 19 that has detected a jam during the conveyance of the banknote in the take-in process clears each recording column of the banknote passage location recording table of the storage unit 20, and temporarily stops the conveyance of the banknote by the conveyance path 17, The location where the jam occurs (in this embodiment, the banknote detection sensor 18c) is stored in the storage unit 20, and the number of passages counted by each banknote detection sensor 18 during the take-in process is temporarily stored in the storage unit 20 as the pre-conveyance number. To do.
Ｓ４、ジャムの発生箇所を記憶した制御部１９は、搬送路１７上に残留する紙幣（残留紙幣という。）を接客部１１の入金室１１ａ、集積室１１ｂ、および一時保留部１３へ搬送して除去する（第１の搬送動作）。
すなわち、制御部１９は、図１１に示すように、搬送路１７ａを逆方向に空転させて、搬送路１７ａ上の残留紙幣を入金室１１ａに集積すると共に、搬送路１７ｂ、１７ｄを順方向に空転させて、これらの搬送路１７上の残留紙幣を一時保留部１３へ集積し、搬送路１７ｅ、１７ｃを順方向に空転させて、これらの搬送路１７上の残留紙幣を集積室１１ｂへ集積して除去する。
S4, the control unit 19 that stores the jam occurrence location conveys the banknotes (referred to as residual banknotes) remaining on the transport path 17 to the depositing chamber 11a, the stacking chamber 11b, and the temporary storage unit 13 of the customer service unit 11. Remove (first transfer operation).
That is, as shown in FIG. 11, the control unit 19 idles the conveyance path 17a in the reverse direction, accumulates the remaining banknotes on the conveyance path 17a in the depositing chamber 11a, and moves the conveyance paths 17b and 17d in the forward direction. The remaining banknotes on these conveyance paths 17 are accumulated in the temporary storage unit 13 by idle, the conveyance paths 17e and 17c are idled in the forward direction, and the remaining banknotes on these conveyance paths 17 are accumulated in the accumulation chamber 11b. And remove.
このとき、制御部１９は、取込処理中に入金室１１ａの紙幣検知センサ１８ａがカウントした通過枚数から、除去動作中に紙幣検知センサ１８ａが紙幣の通過を検知する度に、記憶部２０の紙幣検知センサ１８ａの通過枚数から「１」を減じてその通過枚数を更新すると共に、取込処理中に一時保留部１３の紙幣検知センサ１８ｄがカウントした通過枚数に、除去動作中に紙幣検知センサ１８ｄが紙幣の通過を検知する度に、紙幣検知センサ１８ｄの通過枚数に「１」を加えてその通過枚数を更新し、取込処理中に集積室１１ｂの紙幣検知センサ１８ｅがカウントした通過枚数に、除去動作中に紙幣検知センサ１８ｅが紙幣の通過を検知する度に、紙幣検知センサ１８ｅの通過枚数に「１」を加えてその通過枚数を更新し、全ての紙幣検知センサ１８が紙幣の通過を検知しなくなったときにステップＳ５へ移行する。 At this time, whenever the banknote detection sensor 18a detects passage of a banknote during removal operation from the passage number counted by the banknote detection sensor 18a of the depositing room 11a during the take-in process, the control unit 19 The number of passages of the bill detection sensor 18a is subtracted from "1" to update the number of passages, and the number of passages counted by the bill detection sensor 18d of the temporary storage unit 13 during the take-in process is updated to the bill detection sensor during the removal operation. Each time 18d detects the passage of a bill, the number of passage of the bill detection sensor 18d is incremented by “1” to update the passage number, and the number of passages counted by the bill detection sensor 18e of the stacking chamber 11b during the taking-in process. In addition, every time the banknote detection sensor 18e detects the passage of the banknote during the removing operation, the banknote detection sensor 18e is incremented by adding “1” to the number of the banknote detection sensor 18e. The process proceeds to step S5 when the support 18 does not detect the passage of bills.
Ｓ５、そして、制御部１９は、更新された入金室１１ａの紙幣検知センサ１８ａの通過枚数と、一時保留部１３の紙幣検知センサ１８ｄおよび集積室１１ｂの紙幣検知センサ１８ｅのそれぞれの更新された通過枚数の合計枚数とを比較し、これらが一致している場合は、除去動作における搬送の完了を判定してステップＳ６へ移行する。これらが不一致の場合は、搬送路１７に重度のジャム紙幣が残留していると判定してステップＳ２３へ移行する。 In S5, the control unit 19 updates the number of passages of the updated banknote detection sensor 18a of the depositing chamber 11a, and the updated passages of the banknote detection sensor 18d of the temporary storage unit 13 and the banknote detection sensor 18e of the stacking chamber 11b. The total number of sheets is compared, and if they match, the completion of the conveyance in the removal operation is determined, and the process proceeds to step S6. If they do not match, it is determined that a heavy jam banknote remains in the transport path 17, and the process proceeds to step S23.
Ｓ６、除去動作（第１の搬送動作）における搬送完了を判定した制御部１９は、記憶部２０に一時保存した各紙幣検知センサ１８の搬送前枚数を読出し、それぞれの紙幣検知センサ１８の搬送前枚数と、記憶部２０の当該紙幣検知センサ１８の現在の通過枚数とを比較し、搬送前枚数に対して現在の通過枚数が変動していることにより、ジャム検出後に紙幣が通過した紙幣検知センサ１８を特定し、特定した紙幣検知センサ１８（本説明では１８ａ、１８ｂ、１８ｃ、１８ｄ、１８ｅ）を記憶部２０の図７に示す紙幣通過箇所記録テーブルの第１の搬送動作の欄に記録する。 S <b> 6, the control unit 19 that determines the completion of conveyance in the removal operation (first conveyance operation) reads out the number before conveyance of each banknote detection sensor 18 temporarily stored in the storage unit 20, and before conveyance of each banknote detection sensor 18. The banknote detection sensor in which the banknote has passed after the jam detection is made by comparing the number of sheets and the current number of passages of the banknote detection sensor 18 of the storage unit 20 and the current number of passages fluctuates with respect to the number before conveyance. 18 is specified, and the specified banknote detection sensor 18 (18a, 18b, 18c, 18d, 18e in this description) is recorded in the column of the first transport operation of the banknote passage location recording table shown in FIG. .
Ｓ７、紙幣の通過箇所を記録した制御部１９は、一時保留部１３の図示しない残留検知センサにより一時保留部１３の紙幣の有無を判定し、残留検知センサが紙幣を検知している場合は、一時保留部１３に紙幣が存在することを判定してステップＳ８へ移行する。残留検知センサが紙幣を検知していない場合は、一時保留部１３に紙幣が存在していないことを判定してステップＳ１１へ移行する。 The control part 19 which recorded the passage location of S7 and a banknote determines the presence or absence of the banknote of the temporary storage part 13 with the non-illustrated residual detection sensor of the temporary storage part 13, and when the residual detection sensor has detected the banknote, It determines with a banknote existing in the temporary storage part 13, and transfers to step S8. When the residual detection sensor has not detected a banknote, it determines with the banknote not existing in the temporary storage part 13, and transfers to step S11.
Ｓ８、一時保留部１３に紙幣が存在することを認識した制御部１９は、一時保留部１３に集積されている紙幣を、接客部１１の集積室１１ｂへ搬送して集積する（第２の搬送動作）。
すなわち、制御部１９は、記憶部２０の各紙幣検知センサ１８の通過枚数を搬送前枚数として記憶部２０に一時保存し、図１２に示すように、一時保留部１３から紙幣を１枚ずつ分離して繰出し、搬送路１７ｄ、１７ｂ、１７ｃにより集積室１１ｂへ搬送して集積する。この場合に紙幣は、本実施例のジャム検出箇所である紙幣検知センサ１８ｃを逆方向に通過する。
In S8, the control unit 19 that recognizes that the banknote is present in the temporary storage unit 13 conveys and accumulates the banknotes accumulated in the temporary storage unit 13 to the accumulation chamber 11b of the customer service unit 11 (second conveyance). Operation).
That is, the control unit 19 temporarily stores the number of passages of each banknote detection sensor 18 of the storage unit 20 in the storage unit 20 as the number before conveyance, and separates the banknotes one by one from the temporary storage unit 13 as shown in FIG. Then, it is fed and conveyed to the accumulation chamber 11b through the conveyance paths 17d, 17b, and 17c and accumulated. In this case, the banknote passes in the reverse direction through the banknote detection sensor 18c, which is the jam detection location of this embodiment.
このとき、制御部１９は、一時保留部１３の紙幣検知センサ１８ｄが紙幣の通過を検知する度に、記憶部２０の紙幣検知センサ１８ｄ通過枚数から「１」を減じてその通過枚数を更新すると共に、集積室１１ｂの紙幣検知センサ１８ｅが紙幣の通過を検知する度に、紙幣検知センサ１８ｅの通過枚数に「１」を加えて紙幣検知センサ１８ｅの通過枚数を更新し、全ての紙幣検知センサ１８が紙幣の通過を検知しなくなったときにステップＳ９へ移行する。 At this time, whenever the banknote detection sensor 18d of the temporary storage part 13 detects passage of a banknote, the control part 19 subtracts "1" from the banknote detection sensor 18d passage number of the memory | storage part 20, and updates the passage number. At the same time, every time the banknote detection sensor 18e of the stacking chamber 11b detects the passage of banknotes, "1" is added to the number of banknote detection sensors 18e to update the number of banknote detection sensors 18e, and all banknote detection sensors are updated. When 18 stops detecting the passage of banknotes, the process proceeds to step S9.
Ｓ９、そして制御部１９は、集積室１１ｂの紙幣検知センサ１８ｅの更新された通過枚数から記憶部２０に一時保存した当該搬送前枚数を減じた枚数と、一時保留部１３の紙幣検知センサ１８ｄの搬送前枚数とを比較し、これらが一致している場合は、第２の搬送動作における搬送の完了を判定してステップＳ１０へ移行する。これらが不一致の場合は、搬送路１７に重度のジャム紙幣が残留していると判定してステップＳ２３へ移行する。 In step S9, the control unit 19 subtracts the number of pre-conveyance sheets temporarily stored in the storage unit 20 from the updated number of passages of the banknote detection sensor 18e of the stacking chamber 11b, and the banknote detection sensor 18d of the temporary storage unit 13. When the number of sheets before conveyance is compared and they match, the completion of conveyance in the second conveyance operation is determined, and the process proceeds to step S10. If they do not match, it is determined that a heavy jam banknote remains in the transport path 17, and the process proceeds to step S23.
Ｓ１０、第２の搬送動作における搬送完了を判定した制御部１９は、記憶部２０に一時保存した各紙幣検知センサ１８の搬送前枚数を読出し、上記ステップＳ６と同様にして、ジャム検出後に紙幣が通過した紙幣検知センサ１８を特定し、特定した紙幣検知センサ１８（本説明では１８ｂ、１８ｃ、１８ｄ、１８ｅ）を記憶部２０の紙幣通過箇所記録テーブルの第２の搬送動作の欄に記録する。 In S10, the control unit 19 that has determined the completion of conveyance in the second conveyance operation reads the number before conveyance of each banknote detection sensor 18 temporarily stored in the storage unit 20, and the banknote is detected after jam detection in the same manner as in step S6. The banknote detection sensor 18 that has passed is specified, and the specified banknote detection sensor 18 (18b, 18c, 18d, and 18e in this description) is recorded in the column of the second transport operation of the banknote passage location recording table of the storage unit 20.
Ｓ１１、第１および／もしくは第２の搬送動作における紙幣通過箇所を記録した制御部１９は、記憶部２０に記憶したジャムの発生箇所（本実施例では、紙幣検知センサ１８ｃ）を読出し、これを基に記憶部２０の紙幣通過箇所記録テーブルを参照して、ジャム発生箇所の紙幣検知センサ１８が、紙幣通過箇所記録テーブルの第１および／もしくは第２の搬送動作の欄に記録されている場合は、ジャム発生箇所が復旧したと判定してステップＳ１２へ移行する。 The control part 19 which recorded the banknote passage location in S11 and 1st and / or 2nd conveyance operation reads the generation | occurrence | production location (banknote detection sensor 18c in a present Example) memorize | stored in the memory | storage part 20, This is read. When the banknote detection part 18 of a jam generation location is recorded in the column of the 1st and / or 2nd conveyance operation of a banknote passage location recording table with reference to the banknote passage location recording table of the memory | storage part 20 based on Determines that the jammed portion has been recovered and proceeds to step S12.
ジャム発生箇所の紙幣検知センサ１８が、紙幣通過箇所記録テーブルに記録されていない場合は、ジャム発生箇所の復旧を確認できなかったと判定し、記憶部２０の取忘れ紙幣収納部１５の紙幣検知センサ１８ｋの通過枚数を「０」にリセットしてステップＳ１３へ移行する。
Ｓ１２、ジャム発生箇所が復旧したと判定した制御部１９は、接客部１１のシャッタを開き、集積室１１ｂに集積されている入金紙幣を顧客が取出すとシャッタを閉じる。
When the banknote detection sensor 18 at the jam occurrence location is not recorded in the banknote passage location recording table, it is determined that the recovery of the jam occurrence location has not been confirmed, and the banknote detection sensor of the forgotten banknote storage unit 15 in the storage unit 20. The 18k passing number is reset to “0”, and the process proceeds to step S13.
In S12, the control unit 19 that determines that the jam occurrence location has been restored opens the shutter of the customer service unit 11, and closes the shutter when the customer takes out the deposited banknotes accumulated in the accumulation chamber 11b.
顧客に入金紙幣を返却した制御部１９は、入金処理の取込処理におけるジャム復旧処理を正常に終了させて、主制御部２からの次の指令を待って待機する。
その後に、顧客は返却された紙幣を再投入する等により入金取引を再開する。
Ｓ１３、ジャム発生箇所の復旧を確認できなかったと判定した制御部１９は、接客部１１の入金室１１ａおよび集積室１１ｂにそれぞれ設けられた図示しない残留検知センサにより接客部１１の紙幣の有無を判定し、残留検知センサの少なくとも一方が紙幣を検知している場合は、接客部１１に紙幣が存在することを判定してステップＳ１４へ移行する。
The control unit 19 that has returned the deposited banknote to the customer normally ends the jam recovery process in the capture process of the deposit process, and waits for the next command from the main control unit 2.
After that, the customer resumes the deposit transaction by re-inserting the returned banknote.
S13, the control unit 19 that has determined that the recovery of the jam occurrence location has not been confirmed, determines the presence or absence of banknotes in the customer service unit 11 by using residual detection sensors (not shown) provided in the depositing chamber 11a and the stacking chamber 11b of the customer service unit 11, respectively. And when at least one of the residual detection sensors is detecting a banknote, it determines with a banknote existing in the customer service part 11, and transfers to step S14.
両方の残留検知センサが紙幣を検知していない場合は、接客部１１に紙幣が存在していないことを判定してステップＳ１７へ移行する。
Ｓ１４、接客部１１に紙幣が存在することを認識した制御部１９は、集積室１１ｂの残留検知センサが紙幣を検知している場合は、集積室１１ｂの紙幣を入金室１１ａへ移し、入金室１１ａに集積されている紙幣を、現金保管部である取忘れ紙幣収納部１５へ搬送して集積する（第３の搬送動作）。
When both the remaining detection sensors are not detecting a banknote, it determines with the banknote not existing in the customer service part 11, and transfers to step S17.
The control part 19 which recognized that the banknote exists in S14 and the customer service part 11 moves the banknote of the stacking chamber 11b to the depositing room 11a, when the residual detection sensor of the stacking room 11b has detected the banknote, and the depositing room The banknotes accumulated in 11a are conveyed and accumulated in the forgotten banknote storage part 15 which is a cash storage part (third conveyance operation).
すなわち、制御部１９は、記憶部２０の各紙幣検知センサ１８の通過枚数を搬送前枚数として記憶部２０に一時保存し、図１３に示すように、入金室１１ａから紙幣を１枚ずつ分離して繰出し、搬送路１７ａ、１７ｂ、１７ｄ、１７ｇ、１７ｆ、１７ｈ、１７ｉにより取忘れ紙幣収納部１５へ搬送して集積する。この場合に紙幣は、本実施例のジャム検出箇所である紙幣検知センサ１８ｃを順方向に通過する。 That is, the control unit 19 temporarily stores the number of passages of each banknote detection sensor 18 in the storage unit 20 in the storage unit 20 as the number before conveyance, and separates the banknotes one by one from the depositing chamber 11a as shown in FIG. Then, it is conveyed to the forgotten banknote storage unit 15 through the conveyance paths 17a, 17b, 17d, 17g, 17f, 17h, and 17i and accumulated. In this case, the banknote passes in the forward direction through the banknote detection sensor 18c, which is the jam detection location of this embodiment.

このようにして、本実施例の紙幣の取込処理のジャム検出時におけるジャム復旧処理が行われる。
次に、図５に示すフローチャートを用い、ＳＡで示すステップに従って、本実施例の紙幣入出金機７の入金処理の取込処理の正常終了後の収納処理におけるジャム復旧処理について説明する。
In this way, the jam recovery process at the time of jam detection in the banknote take-in process of the present embodiment is performed.
Next, the jam recovery process in the storing process after normal completion of the taking-in process of the depositing process of the banknote depositing / dispensing machine 7 according to the present embodiment will be described using the flowchart shown in FIG.
本説明は、収納処理における紙幣の搬送中に、紙幣検知センサ１８ｃがジャムを検出した場合であるので、搬送路１７ｄを搬送される紙幣が、紙幣検知センサ１８ｄを正常に通過した後に、紙幣検知センサ１８ｃを通過するまでの搬送時間が、記憶部２０のジャム判定時間テーブルの当該ジャム判定時間を超えたときに、ジャムの発生が検出される。
ＳＡ１、紙幣入出金機７の制御部１９は、現金自動預払機１の主制御部２からの収納指令によって、紙幣入出金処理プログラムにより、記憶部２０の一時保留部１３の紙幣検知センサ１８ｄの通過枚数は取込処理が正常終了した状態で保持し、他の各紙幣検知センサ１８の通過枚数を「０」にリセットした後に、紙幣の収納処理を実行している。
Since this description is a case where the banknote detection sensor 18c detects a jam during the conveyance of the banknote in the storing process, the banknote detected after the banknote transported through the transport path 17d has successfully passed the banknote detection sensor 18d. The occurrence of a jam is detected when the transport time until the sensor 18c passes exceeds the jam determination time in the jam determination time table of the storage unit 20.
SA1, the control unit 19 of the banknote depositing / dispensing machine 7 uses the banknote depositing / withdrawing processing program according to the storage command from the main control unit 2 of the automatic teller machine 1, and the banknote detection sensor 18d of the temporary storage unit 13 of the storage unit 20 is used. The number of passing sheets is held in a state where the taking-in process is normally completed, and after the number of passing sheets of the other banknote detection sensors 18 is reset to “0”, the banknote storing process is executed.
ＳＡ２、これと並行して、制御部１９は、上記ステップＳ２と同様にして、各紙幣検知センサ１８の通過枚数をカウントすると共に、各紙幣検知センサ１８間の搬送時間と当該ジャム判定時間とを比較しながら搬送路１７におけるジャムの発生を監視しており、ジャムの発生を判定したときにステップＳＡ３へ移行する。
収納処理の終了までの間、つまり繰出元である一時保留部１３に集積された紙幣の繰出しが開始され、最後の紙幣が、集積先である各紙幣収納部１４のいずれかに搬送されて集積されるまで（図９参照）の間に、ジャムの発生を検出しない場合は、収納処理を正常に終了させ、主制御部２からの次の指令を待って待機する。
In parallel with SA2, the control unit 19 counts the number of passages of each banknote detection sensor 18 in the same manner as in step S2, and calculates the conveyance time between each banknote detection sensor 18 and the jam determination time. While comparing, the occurrence of a jam in the conveyance path 17 is monitored, and when the occurrence of a jam is determined, the process proceeds to step SA3.
Until the end of the storing process, that is, the feeding of the banknotes accumulated in the temporary holding unit 13 that is a feeding source is started, and the last banknote is conveyed and accumulated in one of the banknote storing units 14 that is a stacking destination. If the occurrence of a jam is not detected until it is done (see FIG. 9), the storing process is terminated normally, and the next command from the main control unit 2 is waited for.
ＳＡ３、収納処理における紙幣の搬送中にジャムを検出した制御部１９は、記憶部２０の紙幣通過箇所記録テーブルの各記録欄をクリアして、搬送路１７による紙幣の搬送を一旦停止させ、ジャムの発生箇所（本実施例では、紙幣検知センサ１８ｃ）を記憶部２０に記憶すると共に、収納処理中に各紙幣検知センサ１８がカウントした通過枚数を搬送前枚数として記憶部２０に一時保存する。 SA3, the control unit 19 that has detected the jam during the conveyance of the banknote in the storing process clears each recording column of the banknote passage location recording table of the storage unit 20, temporarily stops the conveyance of the banknote by the conveyance path 17, and jams. Is stored in the storage unit 20 and the number of passages counted by each banknote detection sensor 18 during the storing process is temporarily stored in the storage unit 20 as the pre-conveyance number.
ＳＡ４、ジャムの発生箇所を記憶した制御部１９は、搬送路１７上に残留する残留紙幣を一時保留部１３へ搬送して除去する（第１の搬送動作）。
すなわち、制御部１９は、図９に太い実線で示す各搬送路１７、つまり搬送路１７ｆ、１７ｊ、１７ｂ、１７ｄを逆方向に空転させて、これらの搬送路１７上の残留紙幣を一時保留部１３へ集積して除去する。
The control part 19 which memorize | stored SA4 and the generation | occurrence | production location of jam conveys the residual banknote which remains on the conveyance path 17 to the temporary storage part 13, and removes it (1st conveyance operation).
That is, the control unit 19 idles the transport paths 17 indicated by thick solid lines in FIG. 9, that is, the transport paths 17f, 17j, 17b, and 17d in the reverse direction, and temporarily stores the remaining banknotes on these transport paths 17 13 is accumulated and removed.
このとき、制御部１９は、収納処理中に、上記ステップＳ８と同様に減算されて更新された一時保留部１３の紙幣検知センサ１８ｄの通過枚数に、除去動作中に紙幣検知センサ１８ｄが紙幣の通過を検知する度に「１」を加えて、記憶部２０の紙幣検知センサ１８ｄの通過枚数を更新すると共に、収納処理中に各紙幣収納部１４の紙幣検知センサ１８ｆ〜１８ｊがカウントした通過枚数から、除去動作中に紙幣検知センサ１８ｆ〜１８ｊのいずれかが紙幣の通過を検知する度に、当該紙幣検知センサ１８の通過枚数から「１」を減じてその通過枚数を更新し、全ての紙幣検知センサ１８が紙幣の通過を検知しなくなったときにステップＳＡ５へ移行する。 At this time, the control unit 19 determines that the banknote detection sensor 18d is updated to the number of passages of the banknote detection sensor 18d of the temporary storage unit 13 that is subtracted and updated in the same manner as in step S8 during the storing process. Each time a passage is detected, "1" is added to update the number of passages of the bill detection sensor 18d of the storage unit 20, and the number of passages counted by the bill detection sensors 18f to 18j of each bill storage unit 14 during the storage process. Therefore, every time any of the banknote detection sensors 18f to 18j detects the passage of the banknote during the removal operation, the number of passages of the banknote detection sensor 18 is subtracted from "1" and the number of passages is updated. When the detection sensor 18 no longer detects the passage of banknotes, the process proceeds to step SA5.
ＳＡ５、そして、制御部１９は、更新された一時保留部１３の紙幣検知センサ１８ｄの通過枚数および各紙幣収納部１４の紙幣検知センサ１８ｆ〜１８ｊのそれぞれの通過枚数の合計枚数と、記憶部２０に一時保存した紙幣検知センサ１８ｄの搬送前枚数とを比較し、これらが一致している場合は、除去動作における搬送の完了を判定してステップＳＡ６へ移行する。これらが不一致の場合は、搬送路１７に重度のジャム紙幣が残留していると判定してステップＳＡ１２へ移行する。 SA5, and the control unit 19 stores the updated number of passages of the banknote detection sensor 18d of the temporary storage unit 13 and the total number of passages of the banknote detection sensors 18f to 18j of each bill storage unit 14, and the storage unit 20. Are compared with the pre-conveyance number of the banknote detection sensor 18d temporarily stored, and if they match, the completion of the conveyance in the removal operation is determined, and the process proceeds to step SA6. If they do not match, it is determined that a heavy jam banknote remains in the transport path 17, and the process proceeds to step SA12.
ＳＡ６、除去動作（第１の搬送動作）における搬送完了を判定した制御部１９は、記憶部２０に一時保存した各紙幣検知センサ１８の搬送前枚数を読出し、上記ステップＳ６と同様にして、ジャム検出後に紙幣が通過した紙幣検知センサ１８を特定し、特定した紙幣検知センサ１８（本説明では１８ｂ、１８ｃ、１８ｄ、および１８ｆ〜１８ｊの該当する紙幣検知センサ１８）を記憶部２０の紙幣通過箇所記録テーブルの第１の搬送動作の欄に記録する。 SA6, the control unit 19 that has determined the completion of conveyance in the removal operation (first conveyance operation) reads out the number before conveyance of each banknote detection sensor 18 temporarily stored in the storage unit 20, and jams in the same manner as in step S6. The banknote detection sensor 18 through which the banknote passed after detection is specified, and the specified banknote detection sensor 18 (the banknote detection sensor 18 corresponding to 18b, 18c, 18d, and 18f-18j in this description) is stored in the banknote passage location of the storage unit 20. Recording is performed in the first transport operation column of the recording table.
ＳＡ７、紙幣の通過箇所を記録した制御部１９は、上記ステップＳ７と同様にして一時保留部１３の紙幣の有無を判定し、一時保留部１３に紙幣が存在することを判定した場合はステップＳＡ８へ移行する。一時保留部１３に紙幣が存在していないことを判定した場合はステップＳＡ１１へ移行する。
ＳＡ８、一時保留部１３に紙幣が存在することを認識した制御部１９は、一時保留部１３に集積されている紙幣を、紙幣収納部１４ａ〜１４ｅのいずれかに搬送して集積する（第２の搬送動作）。
SA7, the control part 19 which recorded the passage part of a banknote determines the presence or absence of the banknote of the temporary storage part 13 similarly to said step S7, and when it determines with the banknote existing in the temporary storage part 13, step SA8 Migrate to When it is determined that no banknote is present in the temporary storage unit 13, the process proceeds to step SA11.
The control part 19 which recognized that the banknote exists in SA8 and the temporary storage part 13 conveys and accumulate | stores the banknote integrated | stacked on the temporary storage part 13 in any one of the banknote storage parts 14a-14e (2nd). Transport operation).
すなわち、制御部１９は、記憶部２０の各紙幣検知センサ１８の通過枚数を搬送前枚数として記憶部２０に一時保存し、上記紙幣の入金処理における収納処理と同様にして、鑑別結果に基づいて、紙幣収納部１４ａ〜１４ｅのいずれかに搬送して集積する（図９参照）。この場合に紙幣は、本実施例のジャム検出箇所である紙幣検知センサ１８ｃを順方向に通過する。 That is, the control unit 19 temporarily stores the number of passages of each banknote detection sensor 18 in the storage unit 20 in the storage unit 20 as the pre-conveyance number, and based on the discrimination result in the same manner as the storing process in the banknote depositing process. Then, it is conveyed and accumulated in any of the banknote storage units 14a to 14e (see FIG. 9). In this case, the banknote passes in the forward direction through the banknote detection sensor 18c, which is the jam detection location of this embodiment.
このとき、制御部１９は、一時保留部１３の紙幣検知センサ１８ｄが紙幣の通過を検知する度に、記憶部２０の紙幣検知センサ１８ｄ通過枚数から「１」を減じてその通過枚数を更新すると共に、各紙幣収納部１４の紙幣検知センサ１８ｆ〜１８ｊいずれかが紙幣の通過を検知する度に、当該紙幣検知センサ１８の通過枚数に「１」を加えてその通過枚数を更新し、全ての紙幣検知センサ１８が紙幣の通過を検知しなくなったときにステップＳＡ９へ移行する。 At this time, whenever the banknote detection sensor 18d of the temporary storage part 13 detects passage of a banknote, the control part 19 subtracts "1" from the banknote detection sensor 18d passage number of the memory | storage part 20, and updates the passage number. At the same time, whenever one of the banknote detection sensors 18f to 18j of the banknote storage unit 14 detects the passage of a banknote, the number of passages of the banknote detection sensor 18 is incremented by “1”, and the number of passages is updated. When the banknote detection sensor 18 no longer detects the passage of banknotes, the process proceeds to step SA9.
ＳＡ９、そして制御部１９は、各紙幣収納部１４の紙幣検知センサ１８ｆ〜１８ｊの更新されたそれぞれの通過枚数から記憶部２０に一時保存したそれぞれの搬送前枚数を減じた枚数の合計枚数と、一時保留部１３の紙幣検知センサ１８ｄの搬送前枚数とを比較し、これらが一致している場合は、第２の搬送動作における搬送の完了を判定してステップＳＡ１０へ移行する。これらが不一致の場合は、搬送路１７に重度のジャム紙幣が残留していると判定してステップＳＡ１２へ移行する。 SA9, and the control unit 19, a total number of sheets obtained by subtracting the respective number of pre-conveyances temporarily stored in the storage unit 20 from the updated number of passages of the banknote detection sensors 18f to 18j of each banknote storage unit 14, and The number of sheets before conveyance of the banknote detection sensor 18d of the temporary holding unit 13 is compared. If they match, the completion of conveyance in the second conveyance operation is determined, and the process proceeds to step SA10. If they do not match, it is determined that a heavy jam banknote remains in the transport path 17, and the process proceeds to step SA12.
ＳＡ１０、第２の搬送動作における搬送完了を判定した制御部１９は、記憶部２０に一時保存した各紙幣検知センサ１８の搬送前枚数を読出し、上記ステップＳ６と同様にして、ジャム検出後に紙幣が通過した紙幣検知センサ１８を特定し、特定した紙幣検知センサ１８（本説明では１８ｂ、１８ｃ、１８ｄ、および１８ｆ〜１８ｊの該当する紙幣検知センサ１８）を記憶部２０の紙幣通過箇所記録テーブルの第２の搬送動作の欄に記録する。 SA10, the control unit 19 that has determined the completion of conveyance in the second conveyance operation reads out the number before conveyance of each banknote detection sensor 18 temporarily stored in the storage unit 20, and in the same manner as in step S6, the banknote is detected after jam detection. The passed banknote detection sensor 18 is specified, and the specified banknote detection sensor 18 (the banknote detection sensor 18 corresponding to 18b, 18c, 18d, and 18f to 18j in this description) is stored in the banknote passage location recording table of the storage unit 20. 2 is recorded in the column of the transport operation.
ＳＡ１１、第１および／もしくは第２の搬送動作における紙幣通過箇所を記録した制御部１９は、記憶部２０に記憶したジャムの発生箇所（本実施例では、紙幣検知センサ１８ｃ）を読出し、これを基に記憶部２０の紙幣通過箇所記録テーブルを参照して、ジャム発生箇所の紙幣検知センサ１８が、紙幣通過箇所記録テーブルの第１および／もしくは第２の搬送動作の欄に記録されている場合は、ジャム発生箇所が復旧したと判定し、入金処理の収納処理におけるジャム復旧処理を正常に終了させて、主制御部２からの次の指令を待って待機する。 The control part 19 which recorded the banknote passage location in SA11 and 1st and / or 2nd conveyance operation reads the generation | occurrence | production location (banknote detection sensor 18c in a present Example) memorize | stored in the memory | storage part 20, This is read. When the banknote detection part 18 of a jam generation location is recorded in the column of the 1st and / or 2nd conveyance operation of a banknote passage location recording table with reference to the banknote passage location recording table of the memory | storage part 20 based on Determines that the jam occurrence location has been recovered, normally ends the jam recovery processing in the deposit processing storage processing, and waits for the next command from the main control unit 2.
ジャム発生箇所の紙幣検知センサ１８が、紙幣通過箇所記録テーブルに記録されていない場合は、ジャム発生箇所の復旧を確認できなかったと判定してステップＳＡ１２へ移行する。
ＳＡ１２、ジャム発生箇所の復旧を確認できなかったと判定した、または重度のジャム紙幣の残留を判定した制御部１９は、ジャム復旧処理が正常に終了しなかったことを認識し、上記ステップＳ２３と同様にして、復旧未了通知を主制御部２へ送信し、これを受信した主制御部２は係員操作部９の画面に、ジャム紙幣除去依頼画面を表示すると共に、顧客操作部５の画面に、復旧エラー画面を表示し、係員によるジャム紙幣の除去作業を待って待機する。
If the banknote detection sensor 18 at the jam occurrence location is not recorded in the banknote passage location recording table, it is determined that recovery of the jam occurrence location has not been confirmed, and the process proceeds to step SA12.
SA12, having determined that the recovery of the jam occurrence location has not been confirmed, or having determined the remaining of the severely jammed banknote, recognizes that the jam recovery processing has not ended normally, and is similar to step S23 above. In response to this, the main control unit 2 that has received the notification of incomplete restoration displays the jam bill removal request screen on the screen of the clerk operation unit 9 and the screen of the customer operation unit 5. Then, display the recovery error screen and wait for the staff to remove the jammed banknote.
その後の、制御部１９および主制御部２の作動は、上記と同様であるので、その説明を省略する。
このようにして、本実施例の紙幣の収納処理のジャム検出時におけるジャム復旧処理が行われる。
以下に、図６に示すフローチャートを用い、ＳＢで示すステップに従って、本実施例の紙幣入出金機７の出金処理におけるジャム復旧処理について説明する。
Subsequent operations of the control unit 19 and the main control unit 2 are the same as described above, and thus description thereof is omitted.
In this way, the jam recovery process at the time of jam detection in the bill storage process of the present embodiment is performed.
Below, the jam recovery process in the withdrawal process of the banknote depositing and dispensing machine 7 of the present embodiment will be described according to the steps indicated by SB, using the flowchart shown in FIG.
本説明は、出金処理における紙幣の搬送中に、紙幣検知センサ１８ｃがジャムを検出した場合であるので、搬送路１７ｂを搬送される紙幣が、紙幣検知センサ１８ｂを正常に通過した後に、紙幣検知センサ１８ｃを通過するまでの搬送時間が、記憶部２０のジャム判定時間テーブルの当該ジャム判定時間を超えたときに、ジャムの発生が検出される。
ＳＢ１、紙幣入出金機７の制御部１９は、現金自動預払機１の主制御部２からの出金指令によって、紙幣入出金処理プログラムにより、記憶部２０の各紙幣検知センサ１８の通過枚数を「０」にリセットした後に、紙幣の出金処理を実行している。
Since this description is a case where the banknote detection sensor 18c detects a jam during the conveyance of the banknote in the dispensing process, the banknote transported through the transport path 17b normally passes through the banknote detection sensor 18b. When the transport time until the detection sensor 18c passes exceeds the jam determination time in the jam determination time table of the storage unit 20, the occurrence of a jam is detected.
The control part 19 of SB1 and the banknote depositing / withdrawing machine 7 determines the passage number of each banknote detection sensor 18 of the memory | storage part 20 by a banknote depositing / withdrawing process program by the withdrawal instruction | command from the main control part 2 of the automatic teller machine 1. After resetting to “0”, the banknote withdrawal process is executed.
ＳＢ２、これと並行して、制御部１９は、上記ステップＳ２と同様にして、各紙幣検知センサ１８の通過枚数をカウントすると共に、各紙幣検知センサ１８間の搬送時間と当該ジャム判定時間とを比較しながら搬送路１７におけるジャムの発生を監視しており、ジャムの発生を判定したときにステップＳＢ３へ移行する。
出金処理の終了までの間、つまり繰出元である各紙幣収納部１４に収納された紙幣の繰出しが開始され、最後の紙幣が、集積先である接客部１１の集積室１１ｂ搬送されて集積されるまで（図１０参照）の間に、ジャムの発生を検出しない場合は、出金処理を正常に終了させ、主制御部２からの次の指令を待って待機する。
In parallel with SB2, the control unit 19 counts the number of passages of each banknote detection sensor 18 in the same manner as in step S2, and calculates the conveyance time between each banknote detection sensor 18 and the jam determination time. While comparing, the occurrence of a jam in the conveyance path 17 is monitored, and when the occurrence of a jam is determined, the process proceeds to step SB3.
Until the withdrawal process is completed, that is, feeding of the banknotes stored in each banknote storage unit 14 that is a feeding source is started, and the last banknote is conveyed and stacked in the stacking chamber 11b of the customer service unit 11 that is a stacking destination. Until the occurrence of the jam (see FIG. 10), if the occurrence of a jam is not detected, the withdrawal process is terminated normally, and the next command from the main control unit 2 is waited for.
ＳＢ３、出金処理における紙幣の搬送中にジャムを検出した制御部１９は、記憶部２０の紙幣通過箇所記録テーブルの各記録欄をクリアして、搬送路１７による紙幣の搬送を一旦停止させ、ジャムの発生箇所（本実施例では、紙幣検知センサ１８ｃ）を記憶部２０に記憶すると共に、出金処理中に各紙幣検知センサ１８がカウントした通過枚数を搬送前枚数として記憶部２０に一時保存する。 The control part 19 which detected jam during conveyance of the banknote in SB3 and payment processing clears each recording column of the banknote passage location recording table of the memory | storage part 20, and stops conveyance of the banknote by the conveyance path 17, once. The jam occurrence location (in the present embodiment, banknote detection sensor 18c) is stored in the storage unit 20, and the number of passages counted by each banknote detection sensor 18 during the withdrawal process is temporarily stored in the storage unit 20 as the pre-conveyance number. To do.
ＳＢ４、ジャムの発生箇所を記憶した制御部１９は、搬送路１７上に残留する残留紙幣を接客部１１に集積室１１ｂおよびリジェクト紙幣収納部１６へ搬送して除去する（第１の搬送動作）。
すなわち、制御部１９は、図１５に示すように、搬送路１７ｆ、１７ｉ、１７ｂ、１７ｄ、１７ｅ、１７ｃを順方向に空転させて、これらの搬送路１７上の残留紙幣を集積室１１ｂへ集積し、搬送路１７ｇ、１７ｆ、１７ｈを順方向に空転させて、これらの搬送路１７上のリジェクト紙幣収納部１６へ集積して除去する。
The control part 19 which memorize | stored SB4 and the generation | occurrence | production location of jam conveys and removes the remaining banknote which remains on the conveyance path 17 to the customer service part 11 to the stacking chamber 11b and the reject banknote storage part 16 (1st conveyance operation). .
That is, as shown in FIG. 15, the control unit 19 idles the transport paths 17f, 17i, 17b, 17d, 17e, and 17c in the forward direction, and accumulates the remaining banknotes on these transport paths 17 in the stacking chamber 11b. Then, the conveyance paths 17g, 17f, and 17h are idled in the forward direction, and accumulated in the reject banknote storage unit 16 on these conveyance paths 17 to be removed.
このとき、制御部１９は、出金処理中に集積室１１ｂの紙幣検知センサ１８ｅがカウントした通過枚数に、除去動作中に紙幣検知センサ１８ｅが紙幣の通過を検知する度に、紙幣検知センサ１８ｅの通過枚数に「１」を加えてその通過枚数を更新すると共に、出金処理中に各紙幣収納部１４の紙幣検知センサ１８ｆ〜１８ｉがカウントした通過枚数に、除去動作中に紙幣検知センサ１８ｆ〜１８ｉのいずれかが紙幣の通過を検知する度に、当該紙幣検知センサ１８の通過枚数に「１」を加えてその通過枚数を更新し、出金処理中にリジェクト紙幣収納部１６の紙幣検知センサ１８ｌがカウントした通過枚数に、除去動作中に紙幣検知センサ１８ｌが紙幣の通過を検知する度に、紙幣検知センサ１８ｌの通過枚数に「１」を加えてその通過枚数を更新し、全ての紙幣検知センサ１８が紙幣の通過を検知しなくなったときにステップＳＢ５へ移行する。 At this time, every time the banknote detection sensor 18e detects the passage of the banknote during the removal operation, the control unit 19 checks the banknote detection sensor 18e for the number of passages counted by the banknote detection sensor 18e of the stacking chamber 11b during the withdrawal process. The number of passing sheets is updated by adding “1” to the number of passing sheets, and the number of passing sheets counted by the banknote detecting sensors 18f to 18i of each banknote storage unit 14 during the withdrawal process is added to the banknote detecting sensor 18f during the removing operation. Each time one of ˜18i detects the passage of a banknote, “1” is added to the number of passages of the banknote detection sensor 18 to update the number of passages, and the banknote detection of the reject banknote storage unit 16 is performed during the withdrawal process. Each time the banknote detection sensor 181 detects the passage of the banknote during the removal operation, the number of passages counted by the sensor 181 is incremented by adding “1” to the number of passages. Update, all of the bill detecting sensor 18 proceeds to step SB5 when no longer detects the passage of the bill.
ＳＢ５、そして、制御部１９は、更新された集積室１１ｂの紙幣検知センサ１８ｅの通過枚数および更新されたリジェクト紙幣収納部１６の紙幣検知センサ１８ｌの通過枚数の合計枚数と、各紙幣収納部１４の紙幣検知センサ１８ｆ〜１８ｉのそれぞれの通過枚数の合計枚数とを比較し、これらが一致している場合は、除去動作における搬送の完了を判定してステップＳＢ６へ移行する。これらが不一致の場合は、搬送路１７に重度のジャム紙幣が残留していると判定してステップＳＢ１２へ移行する。 SB5 and the control part 19 are the total number of the passage number of the updated banknote detection sensor 18e of the stacking chamber 11b and the updated number of passages of the banknote detection sensor 18l of the reject banknote storage part 16, and each banknote storage part 14. Are compared with the total number of passages of the banknote detection sensors 18f to 18i, and if they match, the completion of conveyance in the removal operation is determined and the process proceeds to step SB6. If they do not match, it is determined that a heavy jam banknote remains in the transport path 17, and the process proceeds to step SB12.
ＳＢ６、除去動作（第１の搬送動作）における搬送完了を判定した制御部１９は、記憶部２０に一時保存した各紙幣検知センサ１８の搬送前枚数を読出し、上記ステップＳ６と同様にして、ジャム検出後に紙幣が通過した紙幣検知センサ１８を特定し、特定した紙幣検知センサ１８（本説明では１８ｂ、１８ｃ、１８ｅ、および１８ｆ〜１８ｉの該当する紙幣検知センサ１８）を記憶部２０の紙幣通過箇所記録テーブルの第１の搬送動作の欄に記録する。 SB6, the control unit 19 that has determined the completion of conveyance in the removal operation (first conveyance operation) reads the number before conveyance of each banknote detection sensor 18 temporarily stored in the storage unit 20, and jams in the same manner as in step S6. The banknote detection sensor 18 through which the banknote passed after detection is specified, and the specified banknote detection sensor 18 (the banknote detection sensor 18 corresponding to 18b, 18c, 18e, and 18f to 18i in this description) is stored in the banknote passage location of the storage unit 20. Recording is performed in the first transport operation column of the recording table.
ＳＢ７、紙幣の通過箇所を記録した制御部１９は、上記ステップＳ１３と同様にして、接客部１１の紙幣の有無を判定し、接客部１１に紙幣が存在することを判定した場合はステップＳＢ８へ移行する。接客部１１に紙幣が存在していないことを判定した場合はステップＳＢ１１へ移行する。
ＳＢ８、接客部１１に紙幣が存在することを認識した制御部１９は、集積室１１ｂの紙幣を入金室１１ａへ移し、入金室１１ａに集積されている紙幣を、現金保管部である取忘れ紙幣収納部１５へ搬送して集積する（第２の搬送動作）。
The control part 19 which recorded the passage location of SB7 and a banknote determines the presence or absence of the banknote of the customer service part 11 like said step S13, and when it determines that the banknote exists in the customer service part 11, it progresses to step SB8. Transition. If it is determined that no banknote is present in the customer service section 11, the process proceeds to step SB11.
SB8, the control part 19 which recognized that the banknote exists in the customer service part 11 moves the banknote of the stacking room 11b to the depositing room 11a, and forgets the banknote accumulated in the depositing room 11a as a cash storage part. It is transported to the storage unit 15 and accumulated (second transport operation).
すなわち、制御部１９は、記憶部２０の各紙幣検知センサ１８の通過枚数を搬送前枚数として記憶部２０に一時保存し、上記ステップＳ１４と同様にして、入金室１１ａに集積された紙幣取忘れ紙幣収納部１５へ搬送して集積する（図１３参照）。この場合に紙幣は、本実施例のジャム検出箇所である紙幣検知センサ１８ｃを順方向に通過する。
このとき、制御部１９は、上記ステップＳ１４と同様にして、入金室１１ａの紙幣検知センサ１８ａの通過枚数を更新すると共に、取忘れ紙幣収納部１５の紙幣検知センサ１８ｋの通過枚数を更新し、全ての紙幣検知センサ１８が紙幣の通過を検知しなくなったときにステップＳＢ９へ移行する。
That is, the control unit 19 temporarily stores the number of passages of each banknote detection sensor 18 in the storage unit 20 in the storage unit 20 as the number before conveyance, and forgets to remove the banknotes accumulated in the depositing chamber 11a as in step S14. It is conveyed to the banknote storage part 15 and accumulated (see FIG. 13). In this case, the banknote passes in the forward direction through the banknote detection sensor 18c, which is the jam detection location of this embodiment.
At this time, the control unit 19 updates the number of passages of the banknote detection sensor 18a of the depositing chamber 11a and the number of passages of the bill detection sensor 18k of the forgotten banknote storage unit 15 in the same manner as in step S14. When all the banknote detection sensors 18 no longer detect the passage of banknotes, the process proceeds to step SB9.
ＳＢ９、そして、制御部１９は、入金室１１ａの紙幣検知センサ１８ａの更新された通過枚数と、取忘れ紙幣収納部１５の紙幣検知センサ１８ｋの更新された通過枚数から記憶部２０に一時保存した当該搬送前枚数（本説明では、取忘れが発生していないので、搬送前枚数は「０」）を減じた枚数とを比較し、これらが一致している場合は、第２の搬送動作における搬送の完了を判定してステップＳＢ１０へ移行する。これらが不一致の場合は、搬送路１７に重度のジャム紙幣が残留していると判定してステップＳＢ１２へ移行する。 SB9 and the control part 19 were temporarily preserve | saved in the memory | storage part 20 from the updated passage number of the banknote detection sensor 18a of the deposit chamber 11a, and the updated passage number of the banknote detection sensor 18k of the banknote storage part 15 forgot to take. Compared with the number obtained by subtracting the number before the conveyance (in this description, since the forgetting has not occurred, the number before conveyance is “0”). After completion of conveyance is determined, the process proceeds to step SB10. If they do not match, it is determined that a heavy jam banknote remains in the transport path 17, and the process proceeds to step SB12.
ＳＢ１０、第２の搬送動作における搬送完了を判定した制御部１９は、記憶部２０に一時保存した各紙幣検知センサ１８の搬送前枚数を読出し、上記ステップＳ６と同様にして、ジャム検出後に紙幣が通過した紙幣検知センサ１８を特定し、特定した紙幣検知センサ１８（本説明では１８ａ、１８ｂ、１８ｃ、１８ｋ）を記憶部２０の紙幣通過箇所記録テーブルの第２の搬送動作の欄に記録する。 SB10, the control part 19 which determined the completion of conveyance in 2nd conveyance operation reads the number before conveyance of each banknote detection sensor 18 temporarily preserve | saved in the memory | storage part 20, and a banknote is detected after jam detection similarly to said step S6. The banknote detection sensor 18 that has passed is specified, and the specified banknote detection sensor 18 (18a, 18b, 18c, and 18k in this description) is recorded in the second transport operation column of the banknote passage location recording table of the storage unit 20.
ＳＢ１１、第１および／もしくは第２の搬送動作における紙幣通過箇所を記録した制御部１９は、記憶部２０に記憶したジャムの発生箇所（本実施例では、紙幣検知センサ１８ｃ）を読出し、これを基に記憶部２０の紙幣通過箇所記録テーブルを参照して、ジャム発生箇所の紙幣検知センサ１８が、紙幣通過箇所記録テーブルの第１および／もしくは第２の搬送動作の欄に記録されている場合は、ジャム発生箇所が復旧したと判定し、出金処理におけるジャム復旧処理を正常に終了させて、ステップＳＢ１へ戻り、出金処理を再実行する。 The control part 19 which recorded the banknote passage location in SB11, 1st and / or 2nd conveyance operation reads the generation | occurrence | production location (banknote detection sensor 18c in a present Example) memorize | stored in the memory | storage part 20, This is read. When the banknote detection part 18 of a jam generation location is recorded in the column of the 1st and / or 2nd conveyance operation of a banknote passage location recording table with reference to the banknote passage location recording table of the memory | storage part 20 based on Determines that the jammed portion has been recovered, normally ends the jam recovery processing in the withdrawal process, returns to step SB1, and re-executes the withdrawal process.
ジャム発生箇所の紙幣検知センサ１８が、紙幣通過箇所記録テーブルに記録されていない場合は、ジャム発生箇所の復旧を確認できなかったと判定してステップＳＢ１２へ移行する。
ＳＢ１２、ジャム発生箇所の復旧を確認できなかったと判定した、または重度のジャム紙幣の残留を判定した制御部１９は、ジャム復旧処理が正常に終了しなかったことを認識し、上記ステップＳ２３と同様にして、復旧未了通知を主制御部２へ送信し、これを受信した主制御部２は係員操作部９の画面に、ジャム紙幣除去依頼画面を表示すると共に、顧客操作部５の画面に、復旧エラー画面を表示し、係員によるジャム紙幣の除去作業を待って待機する。
If the banknote detection sensor 18 at the jam occurrence location is not recorded in the banknote passage location recording table, it is determined that recovery of the jam occurrence location has not been confirmed, and the process proceeds to step SB12.
SB12, the control unit 19 that has determined that the recovery of the jam occurrence location has not been confirmed, or has determined the remaining of the severely jammed banknote, recognizes that the jam recovery process has not ended normally, and is similar to step S23 above. In response to this, the main control unit 2 that has received the notification of incomplete restoration displays the jam bill removal request screen on the screen of the clerk operation unit 9 and the screen of the customer operation unit 5. Then, display the recovery error screen and wait for the staff to remove the jammed banknote.
その後の、制御部１９および主制御部２の作動は、上記と同様であるので、その説明を省略する。
このようにして、本実施例の紙幣の出金処理のジャム検出時におけるジャム復旧処理が行われる。
上記のように、本実施例の入金処理および出金処理のジャム検出時におけるジャム復旧処理においては、ジャム発生箇所を順方向に一度は紙幣を通過させ、その正常通過を確認することにより、自動復旧の正常終了を判定するので、ジャム検出時の自動復旧後に再び入金処理や出金処理を続行させたときに、再度ジャムが発生することはなく、係員の介在機会を低減させて紙幣入出金機７の稼動効率を向上させることができる。
Subsequent operations of the control unit 19 and the main control unit 2 are the same as described above, and thus description thereof is omitted.
In this way, the jam recovery process at the time of jam detection in the banknote withdrawal process of the present embodiment is performed.
As described above, in the jam recovery process at the time of jam detection of the deposit process and the withdrawal process of the present embodiment, the banknote is passed once in the forward direction in the forward direction, and the normal passage is confirmed, thereby automatically Since normal completion of recovery is determined, when deposit processing and withdrawal processing are continued again after automatic recovery at the time of jam detection, jams will not occur again, reducing the opportunity for clerk intervention and banknote deposit and withdrawal The operating efficiency of the machine 7 can be improved.
また、ジャム復旧処理が正常に終了しなかった場合には、そのジャム発生箇所および処理名を表示して係員にジャム発生箇所およびジャム発生時の搬送方向を報知するので、係員はジャム発生箇所を容易に特定することができ、ジャム紙幣の除去作業における点検範囲を最少にして、係員の負担を軽減することができると共に、除去作業に要する時間を短縮して、紙幣入出金機の稼動効率の向上を図ることができる他、ジャム紙幣の除去作業において、除去もれが生ずることはなく、紙幣の有高の変化を防止することができる。 If the jam recovery process does not end normally, the location and name of the jam are displayed and the attendant is notified of the jam occurrence location and the transport direction at the time of the jam occurrence. It can be easily identified, the inspection range in the removal of jammed banknotes can be minimized, the burden on the staff can be reduced, the time required for the removal work can be shortened, and the operating efficiency of the banknote depositing and dispensing machine can be reduced. In addition to being able to improve, the removal of jammed banknotes does not cause removal of the banknotes and can prevent the banknotes from changing in height.
なお、上記ステップＳ４（図４）、ＳＢ４（図６）においては、除去動作のときに搬送路１７を順方向に空転させるとして説明したが、逆方向に１枚分程度空転させた後に順方向に空転させるようにしてもよい。このようにすれば、重度のジャム紙幣の場合においても、その皺を伸ばして順方向への搬送が可能になる場合があり、紙幣入出金機７の運用中止の回数を低減して、その稼動効率を更に向上させることができると共に、係員の負担を更に軽減させることができる。 In the above steps S4 (FIG. 4) and SB4 (FIG. 6), it has been described that the conveyance path 17 is idled in the forward direction during the removal operation. You may make it idle. In this way, even in the case of a severely jammed banknote, it may be possible to convey the paper in the forward direction by extending its heel, reducing the number of times the banknote depositing and dispensing machine 7 is stopped, and operating it. The efficiency can be further improved, and the burden on the staff can be further reduced.
以上説明したように、本実施例では、入金処理の取込処理、および出金処理における紙幣の搬送中に、ジャムを検出した場合に、搬送路上に残留する紙幣を、ジャム発生箇所を順方向に通過させて除去するようにしたことによって、ジャム発生箇所おける搬送路の順方向の搬送状態を確実に判定することができ、ジャム検出時の自動復旧後の入金処理や出金処理の再実行時のジャムの再発を確実に防止することができると共に、係員の介在機会を低減させて紙幣入出金機の稼動効率の向上を図ることができる。 As described above, in the present embodiment, when a jam is detected during the banknote transport in the deposit process and the withdrawal process, the banknote remaining on the transport path is moved in the forward direction. By passing it through and removing it, it is possible to reliably determine the conveyance state in the forward direction of the conveyance path at the jam occurrence location, and re-execution of deposit processing and withdrawal processing after automatic recovery at the time of jam detection It is possible to reliably prevent the occurrence of jamming at the same time, and to reduce the opportunity for intermediary staff to improve the operating efficiency of the banknote depositing and dispensing machine.
また、入金処理の収納処理における紙幣の搬送中に、ジャムを検出した場合に、搬送路上に残留する現金を、一時保留部に搬送して一旦集積した後に、ジャムの発生箇所を順方向に通過させて現金収納部に搬送して収納するようにしたことによって、ジャム発生箇所おける搬送路の順方向の搬送状態を確実に判定することができ、ジャム検出時の自動復旧後の入金処理の再実行時のジャムの再発を確実に防止することができると共に、係員の介在機会を低減させて紙幣入出金機の稼動効率の向上を図ることができる。 Also, when a jam is detected during the banknote transport in the deposit processing, the cash remaining on the transport path is transported to the temporary storage unit and once accumulated, and then passed forward through the jam occurrence location. By transporting it to the cash storage unit and storing it, it is possible to reliably determine the forward conveyance state of the conveyance path at the jam occurrence location, and to re-pay the deposit process after automatic recovery at the time of jam detection. It is possible to reliably prevent the occurrence of a jam at the time of execution, and to reduce the opportunity for intermediary personnel to improve the operation efficiency of the banknote depositing and dispensing machine.
更に、ジャムの検出後の紙幣の搬送が正常に終了しなかった場合に、ジャムの発生箇所を表示するようにしたことによって、係員はジャム発生箇所を容易に特定することができ、ジャム紙幣の除去作業における点検範囲を最少にして、係員の負担を軽減することができると共に、除去作業に要する時間を短縮して、紙幣入出金機の稼動効率の向上を図ることができる。 Furthermore, when the conveyance of the banknote after the detection of the jam is not normally completed, the staff can easily identify the jam occurrence location by displaying the jam occurrence location. It is possible to minimize the inspection range in the removal work, reduce the burden on the staff, reduce the time required for the removal work, and improve the operation efficiency of the banknote depositing and dispensing machine.
なお、上記実施例においては、紙幣入出金機に制御部を設けるとして説明したが、現金自動預払機の主記憶部に、紙幣入出金機の記憶部のプログラム等を格納して、現金自動預払機の主制御部により、紙幣入出金機を制御するようにしても本発明と同様の効果を得ることができる。
また、上記実施例においては、自動取引装置は現金自動預払機であるとして説明したが、自動取引装置は前記に限らず、発券機や自動販売機等であってもよい。要は紙幣を取扱う自動取引装置であればどのような自動取引装置に適用しても本発明と同様の効果を得ることができる。
