請求項１に係る発明によれば、選択手段で選別計数モードが選択されているとき、制御手段は、分離供給手段に投入された硬貨の中から真の硬貨を、振分手段で金種別に振り分けて複数の一時貯留手段に金種別で一時貯留させた後に複数の収納出金手段に金種別で収納させることになるため、硬貨を金種別に分けて収納出金手段に収納でき、出金用として使用することができる。また、例えば収納出金手段への補充が不要である場合には、複数の一時貯留手段に金種別で一時貯留させた硬貨を複数の収納手段に収納させることになって、オーバーフローに起因した動作停止を抑制できる。一方、選択手段で混合計数モードが選択されているとき、制御手段は、分離供給手段に投入された硬貨の中から真の硬貨を、振分手段で複数の一時貯留手段に分けてそれぞれ金種混合で一時貯留させた後に複数の収納手段にそれぞれ金種混合で収納させることが可能であるため、それまでの収納手段の収納状況等に応じて、硬貨を複数の一時貯留手段に分けて一時貯留させて複数の収納手段に分けて収納させることができる。したがって、硬貨を複数の収納手段の残容量を平均的に減らすように収納すること等が可能となり、効率的に収納することが可能となる。また、混合計数モードが選択されていて、硬貨を大量に受け入れる場合に、複数の一時貯留手段にこれらが満杯になるまで硬貨を一時貯留させることが可能となり、一時貯留手段から収納手段への受け渡しの回数を最小限にできて処理を短時間で行うことができる。しかも、混合計数モードが選択されているとき、上記したように硬貨を複数の収納手段の残容量を平均的に減らすように収納することが可能となることから、一つの収納手段の残容量が原因で、複数の一時貯留手段に最大限に硬貨を一時貯留させることができないという状況の発生を防止できる。   According to the first aspect of the present invention, when the selection counting mode is selected by the selection means, the control means converts the true coin from the coins input to the separation supply means into a denomination by the sorting means. Since it is distributed and temporarily stored in multiple temporary storage means by denomination, it is stored in multiple storage and withdrawal means by denomination, so that coins can be divided into denominations and stored in the storage and withdrawal means. Can be used for Also, for example, when replenishment to the storage / dispensing means is unnecessary, the coins temporarily stored in the plurality of temporary storage means by money type are stored in the plurality of storage means, and the operation caused by the overflow Stop can be suppressed. On the other hand, when the mixing counting mode is selected by the selection means, the control means divides the true coins from the coins put into the separation supply means into a plurality of temporary storage means by the sorting means, and denominated each denomination. After being temporarily stored by mixing, it can be stored by denomination mixing in a plurality of storage means, respectively, so that coins are temporarily divided into a plurality of temporary storage means according to the storage status of the storage means so far. It can be stored and divided into a plurality of storage means. Accordingly, it is possible to store coins so as to reduce the remaining capacity of the plurality of storage means on average, and it is possible to store them efficiently. In addition, when the mixed counting mode is selected and a large amount of coins is received, it becomes possible to temporarily store coins until they are full in a plurality of temporary storage means, and transfer from the temporary storage means to the storage means The number of times can be minimized and processing can be performed in a short time. Moreover, when the mixed counting mode is selected, it is possible to store coins so as to reduce the remaining capacity of the plurality of storage means on average, as described above, so that the remaining capacity of one storage means is reduced. For this reason, it is possible to prevent a situation in which coins cannot be temporarily stored in a plurality of temporary storage means to the maximum extent.

また、制御手段は、選択手段で混合計数モードが選択されているとき、分離供給手段に投入された硬貨の中から真の硬貨を、複数の収納手段のそれぞれの収納可能な残容量に応じて、最も残容量が多いものから順に金種混合で収納させるように複数の一時貯留手段に金種混合で一時貯留させるため、複数の収納手段の残容量を平均的に減らすように硬貨を収納できることになる。 In addition , when the mixing counting mode is selected by the selection unit, the control unit selects a true coin from the coins input to the separation supply unit according to the remaining capacity that can be stored in the plurality of storage units. , Coins can be stored so that the remaining capacity of the plurality of storage means can be reduced on average in order to temporarily store the plurality of temporary storage means by denomination mixing so that the remaining capacity is stored in order from the largest remaining capacity. become.

請求項２に係る発明によれば、制御手段は、選択手段で選別計数モードが選択されているとき、各一時貯留手段に金種別で一時貯留された各金種別の硬貨枚数および各収納出金手段に収納されている各金種別の出金用収納硬貨枚数から各金種別の合計値を求め、各合計値がすべて、それぞれに対応する収納出金手段の収納判定値以下の場合には、各一時貯留手段に金種別で一時貯留された硬貨を各収納出金手段に金種別に受け渡す一方、選択手段で選別計数モードが選択されていたとしても、各合計値のいずれかが対応する収納出金手段の収納判定値を超えている場合には、各一時貯留手段に金種別で一時貯留された硬貨を各収納手段に金種別に受け渡すことになる。よって、収納出金手段に良好に硬貨を補充できるとともに、収納出金手段のオーバーフローを避けるために処理を停止させる必要がなくなる。しかも、複数の一時貯留手段を一体に移動させる構造に適した処理であるため、装置構成を簡素化可能となる。 According to the second aspect of the present invention, when the selection counting mode is selected by the selection means, the control means stores the number of coins of each denomination temporarily stored in each temporary storage means by denomination and each stored withdrawal. The total value of each denomination is obtained from the number of stored coins for withdrawal of each denomination stored in the means, and when each total value is less than or equal to the storage judgment value of the corresponding storage and withdrawal means, While coins temporarily stored in each temporary storage means by denomination are delivered to each storing and withdrawal means by denomination, even if the selection counting mode is selected by the selection means, any of the total values will correspond When the storage determination value of the storage / dispensing means is exceeded, the coins temporarily stored in the money type in each temporary storage means are transferred to each storage means in the money type. Therefore, coins can be replenished satisfactorily to the storage / withdrawal means, and it is not necessary to stop the processing to avoid overflow of the storage / withdrawal means. And since it is a process suitable for the structure which moves several temporary storage means integrally, an apparatus structure can be simplified.

請求項３に係る発明によれば、制御手段は、選択手段で選別計数モードが選択されているとき、各一時貯留手段に金種別で一時貯留された各金種別の硬貨枚数および各収納出金手段に収納されている各金種別の出金用収納硬貨枚数から各金種別の合計値を求め、合計値が、対応する収納出金手段の収納判定値以下の金種については、一時貯留手段に一時貯留された硬貨を対応する収納出金手段に受け渡す一方、合計値が、対応する収納出金手段の収納判定値を超える金種については、一時貯留手段に一時貯留された硬貨を対応する収納手段に受け渡すことになる。よって、収納出金手段にさらに良好に硬貨を補充できる。 According to the invention of claim 3 , when the selection counting mode is selected by the selection means, the control means counts the number of coins of each denomination and each stored withdrawal in each temporary storage means by denomination. The total value of each denomination is calculated from the number of stored coins for withdrawal of each denomination stored in the means, and for denominations whose total value is less than or equal to the storage judgment value of the corresponding storage and withdrawal means, temporary storage means The coins temporarily stored in the temporary storage means are transferred for denominations whose total value exceeds the storage judgment value of the corresponding storage withdrawal means. It will be delivered to the storage means. Therefore, coins can be further replenished to the storage / dispensing means.

請求項４に係る発明によれば、制御手段は、選択手段で混合計数モードおよび選別計数モードのいずれも選択されていないとき、操作手段により入金処理のスタート操作がなされた時点で、各収納出金手段に収納されている各金種別の出金用収納硬貨枚数がすべて、それぞれに対応する上側モード判定値を超えていると判断した場合、つまり、すべての収納出金手段に十分に出金用収納硬貨が収納されている場合には、自動的に混合計数モードを選択する。これにより、モード選択を行わなくても自動的に最適なモードに設定されるため、操作者の負担を減らすことができる。 According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, when the selection means does not select either the mixing counting mode or the selection counting mode, the control means performs each storing / dispensing operation when the depositing process is started by the operating means. When it is determined that all the stored coins for withdrawal of each type of money stored in the gold means exceed the corresponding upper mode judgment value, that is, withdrawing money to all the storage means When the storage coin is stored, the mixed counting mode is automatically selected. As a result, the optimum mode is automatically set without selecting the mode, so that the burden on the operator can be reduced.

請求項５に係る発明によれば、制御手段は、選択手段で混合計数モードおよび選別計数モードのいずれも選択されていないとき、操作手段により入金処理のスタート操作がなされた時点で、各収納出金手段に収納されている各金種別の出金用収納硬貨枚数のうちのいずれかが、対応する下側モード判定値未満であると判断した場合、つまり、いずれかの収納出金手段で十分な量の出金用収納硬貨が収納されていない場合には、自動的に選別計数モードを選択する。これにより、モード選択を行わなくても自動的に最適なモードに設定されるため、操作者の負担を減らすことができる。 According to the fifth aspect of the present invention, when the selection means does not select either the mixing counting mode or the selection counting mode, the control means performs each storing / dispensing operation when the depositing process is started by the operating means. When it is determined that any of the number of stored coins for withdrawal of each money type stored in the gold means is less than the corresponding lower mode judgment value, that is, any of the stored and withdrawing means is sufficient. When a large amount of storage coins for withdrawal is not stored, the selection counting mode is automatically selected. As a result, the optimum mode is automatically set without selecting the mode, so that the burden on the operator can be reduced.

It is possible to select and set the mixing counting mode stored in .about.24f.

次に、本実施形態の制御部２８の制御内容を説明する。
ここで、硬貨入出金機１は、業務の開始時には、すべての収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆが空の状態にされるとともに制御部２８に記憶された各金種別の硬貨の入金データも０にリセットされることになり、その後に行われる入金処理における識別部１１の計数結果から、制御部２８は各金種別の入金量を記憶するようになっている。また、制御部２８は、識別部１１の計数結果と振分部１３ａ〜１３ｆの振分結果とから各収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆのそれぞれの硬貨の収納量と収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆのそれぞれの硬貨の収納量とを記憶する。 Next, the control content of the control part 28 of this embodiment is demonstrated.
Here, in the coin depositing and dispensing machine 1, all the storage boxes 24a to 24f are emptied at the start of business, and the deposit data of coins of each denomination stored in the control unit 28 are also reset to zero. Therefore, the control unit 28 stores the deposit amount of each money type from the counting result of the identification unit 11 in the deposit process performed thereafter. Moreover, the control part 28 is based on the count result of the identification part 11, and the distribution result of the distribution part 13a-13f, respectively, and the storage amount of each coin of each storage box 24a-24f and each of the storage payment part 27a-27f. The amount of coins stored is stored.

「選別計数モード」
まず、表示操作部２９への適宜の入力で選別計数モードが選択設定された状態にある場合を説明する。このモードは、入金させる硬貨が比較的少量のときに選択される。 "Selection counting mode"
First, a case where the selection counting mode is selected and set by appropriate input to the display operation unit 29 will be described. This mode is selected when the amount of coins to be deposited is relatively small.

硬貨入出金機１で一の入金処理が表示操作部２９へのスタート操作で開始されるにあたり、選別計数モードが選択設定された状態にあると、制御部２８は、この一の入金処理で分離供給部５のホッパ６に金種混合で投入された硬貨のうち、識別部１１の識別結果に基づいて受け入れ不可と識別されたリジェクト硬貨を、すべてリジェクト部１２でリジェクトボックス２０に返却する一方、受け入れ可能と識別された真の硬貨を、金種別に選別して振り分けるように振分部１３ａ〜１３ｆを制御する。つまり、識別部１１で１円硬貨と識別された硬貨を、振分部１３ａのシャッタ１５ａを開いて選別孔１４ａから一時貯留部２１ａに一時貯留させる。また、識別部１１で５円硬貨と識別された硬貨を、シャッタ１５ａを閉状態として振分部１３ａを通過させ、振分部１３ｂのシャッタ１５ｂを開いて選別孔１４ｂから一時貯留部２１ｂに一時貯留させる。さらに、識別部１１で１０円硬貨と識別された硬貨を、シャッタ１５ａ，１５ｂを閉状態として振分部１３ａ，１３ｂを通過させ、振分部１３ｃのシャッタ１５ｃを開いて選別孔１４ｃから一時貯留部２１ｃに一時貯留させる。加えて、識別部１１で５０円硬貨と識別された硬貨を、シャッタ１５ａ〜１５ｃを閉状態として振分部１３ａ〜１３ｃを通過させ、振分部１３ｄのシャッタ１５ｄを開いて選別孔１４ｄから一時貯留部２１ｄに一時貯留させる。また、識別部１１で１００円硬貨と識別された硬貨を、シャッタ１５ａ〜１５ｄを閉状態として振分部１３ａ〜１３ｄを通過させ、振分部１３ｅのシャッタ１５ｅを開いて選別孔１４ｅから一時貯留部２１ｅに一時貯留させる。さらに、識別部１１で５００円硬貨と識別された硬貨を、シャッタ１５ａ〜１５ｅを閉状態として振分部１３ａ〜１３ｅを通過させ、振分部１３ｆの選別孔１４ｆから一時貯留部２１ｆに一時貯留させる。なお、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆへの各金種の振り分けのパターンは常に一定であれば上記に限らず他の設定としても良い。   When the first depositing process is started by the start operation to the display operation unit 29 in the coin depositing and dispensing machine 1, the control unit 28 separates by this one depositing process when the sorting counting mode is selected and set. While rejected coins that are identified as unacceptable based on the identification result of the identification unit 11 among the coins put into the hopper 6 of the supply unit 5 by denomination mixing are all returned to the reject box 20 by the rejection unit 12, The sorting units 13a to 13f are controlled so as to sort and sort the true coins identified as acceptable. That is, the coins identified as one-yen coins by the identification unit 11 are temporarily stored in the temporary storage unit 21a from the sorting hole 14a by opening the shutter 15a of the distribution unit 13a. Further, the coins identified as 5-yen coins by the identification unit 11 are allowed to pass through the sorting unit 13a with the shutter 15a closed, and the shutter 15b of the sorting unit 13b is opened to temporarily store the coins from the sorting hole 14b to the temporary storage unit 21b. Store. Further, the coins identified as 10-yen coins by the identifying unit 11 are passed through the sorting units 13a and 13b with the shutters 15a and 15b closed, and the shutter 15c of the sorting unit 13c is opened and temporarily stored from the sorting hole 14c. The part 21c is temporarily stored. In addition, the coins identified as 50-yen coins by the identification unit 11 are allowed to pass through the sorting units 13a to 13c with the shutters 15a to 15c closed, and the shutter 15d of the sorting unit 13d is opened to temporarily pass through the sorting hole 14d. The reservoir 21d is temporarily stored. Further, the coins identified as 100-yen coins by the identification unit 11 are allowed to pass through the sorting units 13a to 13d with the shutters 15a to 15d closed, and the shutter 15e of the sorting unit 13e is opened to temporarily store the coins from the sorting hole 14e. The part 21e is temporarily stored. Furthermore, the coins identified as 500 yen coins by the identification unit 11 are passed through the sorting units 13a to 13e with the shutters 15a to 15e closed, and temporarily stored in the temporary storage unit 21f from the sorting holes 14f of the sorting unit 13f. Let In addition, as long as the pattern of distribution of each denomination to the temporary storage units 21a to 21f is always constant, the setting is not limited to the above and may be other settings.

そして、この一の入金処理でホッパ６に投入された硬貨のうち識別部１１の識別結果に基づいて受け入れ可能と識別された真の硬貨がすべて、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに金種別に一時貯留されると、その後、金種別の計数結果および合計金額を表示操作部２９へ表示させ、操作者により表示操作部２９へキャンセル操作が入力されると、制御部２８は、側壁部形成体２２を移動させることで、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに金種別に一時貯留させていた硬貨を金種別のまま返却ボックス２６の返却収容部２５ａ〜２５ｆの対応するものに返却させる。すると、操作者は、返却ボックス２６を取り出して返却硬貨を受け取る。他方、操作者により表示操作部２９へ承認操作が入力されると、制御部２８は、各一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに金種別で一時貯留させた硬貨を、収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆおよび収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆのいずれか一方に選択的に、つまり、収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆか、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆかに金種別に受け渡すことになるが、いずれに受け渡すかを次のように判断する。   And all the true coins identified as acceptable based on the identification result of the identification unit 11 among the coins inserted into the hopper 6 in this one deposit process are temporarily stored in the temporary storage units 21a to 21f in denominations. Then, the counting result of the money type and the total amount are displayed on the display operation unit 29, and when a cancel operation is input to the display operation unit 29 by the operator, the control unit 28 causes the side wall portion forming body 22 to be displayed. By moving, the coins temporarily stored in the denominations in the temporary storage units 21a to 21f are returned to the corresponding ones in the return accommodation units 25a to 25f of the return box 26 in the denomination. Then, the operator takes out the return box 26 and receives a return coin. On the other hand, when an approval operation is input to the display operation unit 29 by the operator, the control unit 28 stores the coins temporarily stored in the temporary storage units 21a to 21f according to the denominations and the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f and the storage. The money is transferred selectively to any one of the boxes 24a to 24f, that is, to the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f or the storage boxes 24a to 24f. Judgment.

制御部２８は、各一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに金種別で一時貯留された各金種別の硬貨枚数および各収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆにすでに収納されている各金種別の出金用収納硬貨枚数から各金種別の合計値を求め、当該各合計値がすべて、収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆのうちのそれぞれに対応するものの予め設定された収納判定値以下の場合には、各一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに金種別で一時貯留された硬貨を各収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆに金種別に受け渡す一方、前記各合計値のいずれかが、収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆのうちの対応するものの収納判定値を超えている場合には、各一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに金種別で一時貯留された硬貨を各収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆに金種別に受け渡す。つまり、一時貯留部２１ａに一時貯留された１円硬貨の枚数と収納出金部２７ａにすでに収納されている１円硬貨の枚数とを加算して１円硬貨の合計値を求めて、この合計値が収納出金部２７ａに対し設定された収納判定値を超えているか否かの判断と、一時貯留部２１ｂに一時貯留された５円硬貨の枚数と収納出金部２７ｂにすでに収納されている５円硬貨の枚数とを加算して５円硬貨の合計値を求めて、この合計値が収納出金部２７ｂに対し設定された収納判定値を超えているか否かの判断と、一時貯留部２１ｃに一時貯留された１０円硬貨の枚数と収納出金部２７ｃにすでに収納されている１０円硬貨の枚数とを加算して１０円硬貨の合計値を求めて、この合計値が収納出金部２７ｃに対し設定された収納判定値を超えているか否かの判断と、一時貯留部２１ｄに一時貯留された５０円硬貨の枚数と収納出金部２７ｄにすでに収納されている５０円硬貨の枚数とを加算して５０円硬貨の合計値を求めて、この合計値が収納出金部２７ｄに対し設定された収納判定値を超えているか否かの判断と、一時貯留部２１ｅに一時貯留された１００円硬貨の枚数と収納出金部２７ｅにすでに収納されている１００円硬貨の枚数とを加算して１００円硬貨の合計値を求めて、この合計値が収納出金部２７ｅに対し設定された収納判定値を超えているか否かの判断と、一時貯留部２１ｆに一時貯留された５００円硬貨の枚数と収納出金部２７ｆにすでに収納されている５００円硬貨の枚数とを加算して５００円硬貨の合計値を求めて、この合計値が収納出金部２７ｆに対し設定された収納判定値を超えているか否かの判断とを行う。ここで、上記した収納判定値は、各収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆが満杯になる所定値手前の収納量、いわゆるニアフルの収納量であって、一回程度の収納が行われても満杯にはならない収納量に設定されている。   The control unit 28 includes the number of coins of each denomination temporarily stored in each temporary storage unit 21a to 21f and the storage coins for withdrawal of each denomination already stored in each of the storage and withdrawal units 27a to 27f. The total value of each money type is obtained from the number of sheets, and when each of the total values corresponds to each of the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f but is equal to or less than a preset storage determination value, each temporary storage unit While coins temporarily stored in 21a to 21f by denomination are transferred to each storing and dispensing unit 27a to 27f, each of the total values corresponds to one of the storing and dispensing units 27a to 27f. If the storage determination value of the object is exceeded, the coins temporarily stored in the temporary storage units 21a to 21f by denomination are transferred to the storage boxes 24a to 24f by denomination. That is, the total value of 1-yen coins is obtained by adding the number of 1-yen coins temporarily stored in the temporary storage unit 21a and the number of 1-yen coins already stored in the storage / withdrawal unit 27a. Judgment whether or not the value exceeds the storage determination value set for the storage / withdrawal unit 27a, the number of 5-yen coins temporarily stored in the temporary storage unit 21b, and the storage / withdrawal unit 27b. The total number of 5-yen coins is obtained by adding the number of 5-yen coins that are present, and a determination is made as to whether or not this total value exceeds the storage determination value set for the storage / withdrawal unit 27b, and temporary storage The total number of 10 yen coins is obtained by adding the number of 10 yen coins temporarily stored in the part 21c and the number of 10 yen coins already stored in the storage and withdrawal part 27c. Whether or not the storage judgment value set for the gold part 27c is exceeded And adding the number of 50 yen coins temporarily stored in the temporary storage unit 21d and the number of 50 yen coins already stored in the storage withdrawal unit 27d to obtain the total value of the 50 yen coins. Judgment whether or not the total value exceeds the storage determination value set for the storage / withdrawal unit 27d, the number of 100-yen coins temporarily stored in the temporary storage unit 21e, and the storage / withdrawal unit 27e are already stored. The total number of 100-yen coins is added to obtain a total value of 100-yen coins, and a determination is made as to whether or not this total value exceeds a storage determination value set for the storage / withdrawal unit 27e; The total value of 500 yen coins is obtained by adding the number of 500 yen coins temporarily stored in the storage part 21f and the number of 500 yen coins already stored in the storage and withdrawal part 27f, and this total value is stored. Storage size set for withdrawal part 27f Performing the determination of whether or not exceed the value. Here, the above-mentioned storage determination value is a storage amount before a predetermined value at which each of the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f is full, that is, a so-called near-full storage amount, and is filled even if storage is performed once. It is set to the storage amount that must not be.

そして、上記した判断がすべてＮＯ、つまり各合計値がすべて、それぞれに対応する収納判定値以下の場合には、側壁部形成体２２および底部形成体２３を適宜移動させることで、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに金種別に一時貯留させていた硬貨を金種別のまま収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆの対応するものに受け渡す。他方、上記した判断のいずれかがＹＥＳ、つまり各合計値のいずれかが、対応する収納判定値を超えている場合には、底部形成体２３のみを適宜移動させることで、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに金種別に一時貯留させていた硬貨を金種別のまま収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆの対応するものに受け渡す。なお、収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆに収納された硬貨は、入金処理とは別に行われる出金処理によって出金されることになるため、収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆの硬貨収納量は出金処理によって減ることになる。   When all the above determinations are NO, that is, when each total value is equal to or less than the corresponding storage determination value, the side wall portion forming body 22 and the bottom portion forming body 23 are appropriately moved to move the temporary storage portion 21a. The coins that have been temporarily stored in the money type at 21f are delivered to the corresponding ones of the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f in the money type. On the other hand, if any of the above-described determinations is YES, that is, if any of the total values exceeds the corresponding storage determination value, only the bottom forming body 23 is moved as appropriate so that the temporary storage units 21a to 21a. The coin temporarily stored in the money type in 21f is transferred to the corresponding one of the storage boxes 24a to 24f in the money type. Since the coins stored in the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f are withdrawn by a withdrawal process performed separately from the depositing process, the amount of coins stored in the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f is the withdrawal amount. It will be reduced by processing.

ここで、一の入金処理で、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆのうちのいずれか一つで一時貯留が不可な量の真の硬貨が識別部１１で検出された場合、制御部２８は、それ以後検出されたこの硬貨と同金種の硬貨をすべてリジェクト部１２のシャッタ１５ｇを開いてリジェクト孔１４ｇからリジェクトボックス２０に案内し、リジェクトボックス２０を介して操作者に返却する。他方、上記以外の金種の硬貨については、そのまま振り分けを続ける。このようにして、一の入金処理が終了すると、その時点で一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆで金種別に一時貯留された硬貨についてのみ、金種別の計数結果および合計金額を表示操作部２９へ表示させ、操作者により表示操作部２９へ承認操作が入力されると、上記と同様にして、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆおよび収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆのうちのいずれか一方に金種別に受け渡すことになり、その後、操作者は、リジェクトボックス２０に返却された硬貨を再びホッパ６に投入して別の入金処理として処理する。   Here, when the amount of true coins that cannot be temporarily stored in any one of the temporary storage units 21a to 21f is detected by the identification unit 11 in one depositing process, the control unit 28 thereafter All the detected coins of the same denomination are guided to the reject box 20 from the reject hole 14g by opening the shutter 15g of the reject unit 12, and returned to the operator via the reject box 20. On the other hand, for coins of other denominations, the distribution continues. In this way, when one deposit process is completed, the counting operation result and the total amount of money type are displayed on the display operation unit 29 only for the coins temporarily stored in the money type by the temporary storage units 21a to 21f at that time. When an approval operation is input to the display operation unit 29 by the operator, it is transferred to one of the storage boxes 24a to 24f and the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f in the same manner as described above. After that, the operator inserts the coins returned to the reject box 20 into the hopper 6 again and processes it as another deposit process.

「混合計数モード」
次に、表示操作部２９への適宜の入力で混合計数モードが選択設定された状態にある場合を説明する。このモードは、入金させる硬貨が大量のときに選択される。 `` Mixed counting mode ''
Next, a case where the mixture counting mode is selected and set by appropriate input to the display operation unit 29 will be described. This mode is selected when a large amount of coins are deposited.

硬貨入出金機１で一の入金処理が表示操作部２９へのスタート操作で開始されるにあたり、混合計数モードが選択設定された状態にあると、制御部２８は、この一の入金処理で分離供給部５のホッパ６に金種混合で投入された硬貨のうち、識別部１１の識別結果に基づいて受け入れ不可と識別されたリジェクト硬貨を、すべてリジェクト部１２でリジェクトボックス２０に返却する一方、受け入れ可能と識別された真の硬貨を、金種混合のまま、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆのうちの複数のものに必要に応じて分け、それぞれ順に金種混合で可能な限り一時貯留させた後に、それぞれ収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆの対応するものに金種混合で収納するように振分部１３ａ〜１３ｆおよび一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆを制御する。しかも、制御部２８は、受け入れ可能と識別された真の硬貨を、複数の収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆのそれぞれの収納可能な残容量に応じて、最も残容量が多いものから順に金種混合で収納させるように複数の一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆのうちの複数のものに分けて金種混合で一時貯留させる。   When the one depositing process is started by the start operation to the display operation unit 29 in the coin depositing and dispensing machine 1, the control unit 28 separates by this one depositing process when the mixed counting mode is selected and set. While rejected coins that are identified as unacceptable based on the identification result of the identification unit 11 among the coins put into the hopper 6 of the supply unit 5 by denomination mixing are all returned to the reject box 20 by the rejection unit 12, After the true coins that are identified as being acceptable are mixed in denominations as needed and divided into a plurality of temporary storage units 21a to 21f as needed, and after each is temporarily stored as much as possible by denomination mixing. The distribution units 13a to 13f and the temporary storage units 21a to 21f are controlled so as to be stored by denomination mixing in the corresponding ones of the storage boxes 24a to 24f. In addition, the control unit 28 stores the true coins that are identified as being acceptable, in accordance with the remaining capacity that can be stored in each of the plurality of storage boxes 24a to 24f, in order from the largest remaining capacity by denomination mixing. It is made to divide into a plurality of temporary storage parts 21a-21f so that it may carry out, and it is made to temporarily store by denomination mixing.

例えば、前回までの入金処理の結果、一の入金処理の開始時点で、硬貨を収納可能な残容量の多い順番が、収納ボックス２４ａ、収納ボックス２４ｂ、収納ボックス２４ｃ、収納ボックス２４ｄ、収納ボックス２４ｅ、収納ボックス２４ｆの順であった場合に、制御部２８は、この一の入金処理で分離供給部５のホッパ６に投入された硬貨のうち識別部１１の識別結果に基づいて受け入れ可能と識別された真の硬貨を、まず最初に、金種混合のまま、振分部１３ａのシャッタ１５ａを開いて選別孔１４ａから収納ボックス２４ａに対応する一時貯留部２１ａに可能な限り一時貯留させる。そして、一時貯留部２１ａを満杯にすると判断される量の硬貨を一時貯留部２１ａに一時貯留させると、次に制御部２８は、次に残容量が多い収納ボックス２４ｂに対応する一時貯留部２１ｂに可能な限りの硬貨を金種混合で一時貯留させる。さらに、一時貯留部２１ｂを満杯にすると判断される量の硬貨を一時貯留部２１ｂに一時貯留させると、次に制御部２８は、次に残容量が少ない収納ボックス２４ｃに対応する一時貯留部２１ｃに可能な限りの硬貨を金種混合で一時貯留させる。さらに、一時貯留部２１ｃを満杯にすると判断される量の硬貨を一時貯留部２１ｃに一時貯留させると、次に制御部２８は、次に残容量が少ない収納ボックス２４ｄに対応する一時貯留部２１ｄに可能な限りの硬貨を金種混合で一時貯留させる。さらに、一時貯留部２１ｄを満杯にすると判断される量の硬貨を一時貯留部２１ｄに一時貯留させると、次に制御部２８は、次に残容量が少ない収納ボックス２４ｅに対応する一時貯留部２１ｅに可能な限りの硬貨を金種混合で一時貯留させる。さらに、一時貯留部２１ｅを満杯にすると判断される量の硬貨を一時貯留部２１ｅに一時貯留させると、次に制御部２８は、最も残容量が少ない収納ボックス２４ｆに対応する一時貯留部２１ｆに可能な限りの硬貨を金種混合で一時貯留させる。   For example, as a result of the deposit process up to the previous time, at the start of one deposit process, the order of the remaining capacity that can store coins is the storage box 24a, storage box 24b, storage box 24c, storage box 24d, storage box 24e. In the case of the storage box 24f in this order, the control unit 28 identifies that it is acceptable based on the identification result of the identification unit 11 among the coins put into the hopper 6 of the separation supply unit 5 in this one depositing process. First of all, the true coins are temporarily stored as much as possible in the temporary storage unit 21a corresponding to the storage box 24a from the sorting hole 14a by opening the shutter 15a of the distribution unit 13a while keeping the denomination mixed. When the amount of coins determined to fill the temporary storage unit 21a is temporarily stored in the temporary storage unit 21a, the control unit 28 next stores the temporary storage unit 21b corresponding to the storage box 24b having the next largest remaining capacity. And temporarily store all possible coins by denomination mixing. Furthermore, when the amount of coins determined to fill up the temporary storage unit 21b is temporarily stored in the temporary storage unit 21b, the control unit 28 next stores the temporary storage unit 21c corresponding to the storage box 24c with the next smallest remaining capacity. And temporarily store all possible coins by denomination mixing. Furthermore, when the amount of coins determined to fill up the temporary storage unit 21c is temporarily stored in the temporary storage unit 21c, the control unit 28 next stores the temporary storage unit 21d corresponding to the storage box 24d having the next smallest remaining capacity. And temporarily store all possible coins by denomination mixing. Further, when the temporary storage unit 21d temporarily stores an amount of coins determined to fill the temporary storage unit 21d, the control unit 28 next stores the temporary storage unit 21e corresponding to the storage box 24e with the next smallest remaining capacity. And temporarily store all possible coins by denomination mixing. Furthermore, when the amount of coins determined to fill up the temporary storage unit 21e is temporarily stored in the temporary storage unit 21e, the control unit 28 next stores the temporary storage unit 21f corresponding to the storage box 24f with the smallest remaining capacity. Temporarily store as many coins as possible by denomination mixing.

そして、この一の入金処理でホッパ６に投入された硬貨のうち識別部１１の識別結果に基づいて受け入れ可能と識別された真の硬貨がすべて一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆのいずれかに一時貯留されると、金種別の計数結果および合計金額を表示操作部２９へ表示させ、操作者により表示操作部２９へ承認操作が入力されると、制御部２８は、底部形成体２３を移動させることで、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆのいずれかに一時貯留させていた硬貨を金種混合のまま収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆのいずれか対応するものに収納させる。他方、操作者により表示操作部２９へキャンセル操作が入力されると、制御部２８は、側壁部形成体２２を移動させることで、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆのいずれかに一時貯留させていた硬貨を金種混合のまま返却ボックス２６の返却収容部２５ａ〜２５ｆのいずれか対応するものに返却させる。すると、操作者は、返却ボックス２６を取り出して返却硬貨を受け取る。   And all the true coins identified as acceptable based on the identification result of the identification unit 11 among the coins inserted into the hopper 6 by this one depositing process are temporarily stored in any of the temporary storage units 21a to 21f. Then, the counting result of the money type and the total amount are displayed on the display operation unit 29, and when an approval operation is input to the display operation unit 29 by the operator, the control unit 28 moves the bottom forming body 23. The coins temporarily stored in any of the temporary storage units 21a to 21f are stored in the corresponding ones of the storage boxes 24a to 24f with the denomination mixed. On the other hand, when a cancel operation is input to the display operation unit 29 by the operator, the control unit 28 moves the side wall part forming body 22 to temporarily store the coins temporarily stored in any of the temporary storage units 21a to 21f. Is returned to the corresponding one of the return accommodating portions 25a to 25f of the return box 26 with the denomination mixed. Then, the operator takes out the return box 26 and receives a return coin.

ここで、一の入金処理で分離供給部５のホッパ６に投入され、受け入れ可能と識別された真の硬貨がすべて一時貯留部２１ａのみに金種混合で一時貯留可能な量であった場合には、一時貯留部２１ａからその満杯量以下の硬貨が残容量の最も多い収納ボックス２４ａに収納されることになる。また、一の入金処理で分離供給部５のホッパ６に投入され、受け入れ可能と識別された真の硬貨がすべて一時貯留部２１ａ，２１ｂのみに金種混合で一時貯留可能な量であった場合には、一時貯留部２１ａからその満杯量の硬貨が残容量の最も多い収納ボックス２４ａに収納され、一時貯留部２１ｂからその満杯量以下の量の硬貨が残容量の次に多い収納ボックス２４ｂに収納されることになる。さらに、一の入金処理で分離供給部５のホッパ６に投入され、受け入れ可能と識別された真の硬貨が一時貯留部２１ａ，２１ｂ，２１ｃのみに金種混合で一時貯留可能な量であった場合には、一時貯留部２１ａからその満杯量の硬貨が残容量の最も多い収納ボックス２４ａに収納され、一時貯留部２１ｂからその満杯量の硬貨が残容量の次に多い収納ボックス２４ｂに収納され、一時貯留部２１ｃからその満杯量以下の量の硬貨が残容量の次に多い収納ボックス２４ｃに収納されることになる。同様の真の硬貨が一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｄのみに金種混合で一時貯留可能な量であった場合には、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｃのそれぞれからそれぞれの満杯量の硬貨が収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｃに収納され、一時貯留部２１ｄからその満杯量以下の量の硬貨が収納ボックス２４ｄに収納されることになり、同様の真の硬貨が一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｅのみに金種混合で一時貯留可能な量であった場合には、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｄのそれぞれからそれぞれの満杯量の硬貨が収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｄに収納され、一時貯留部２１ｅからその満杯量以下の量の硬貨が収納ボックス２４ｅに収納されることになり、同様の真の硬貨が一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに金種混合で一時貯留可能な量であった場合には、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｅのそれぞれからそれぞれの満杯量の硬貨が収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｅに収納され、一時貯留部２１ｆからその満杯量以下の量の硬貨が収納ボックス２４ｆに収納されることになる。   Here, when all the true coins that have been inserted into the hopper 6 of the separation supply unit 5 in one deposit process and identified as being acceptable are amounts that can be temporarily stored in the temporary storage unit 21a only by denomination mixing. Is stored in the storage box 24a having the largest remaining capacity from the temporary storage unit 21a. In addition, when all the true coins that have been inserted into the hopper 6 of the separation supply unit 5 and identified as being acceptable in one depositing process can be temporarily stored in the temporary storage units 21a and 21b only by denomination mixing. Are stored in the storage box 24a having the largest remaining capacity from the temporary storage unit 21a and stored in the storage box 24b having the second largest remaining coin from the temporary storage unit 21b. Will be stored. Furthermore, the amount of true coins that were put into the hopper 6 of the separation supply unit 5 in one depositing process and identified as being acceptable could be temporarily stored only in the temporary storage units 21a, 21b, 21c by denomination mixing. In this case, the full amount of coins is stored in the storage box 24a having the largest remaining capacity from the temporary storage unit 21a, and the full amount of coins is stored in the storage box 24b having the second largest remaining capacity from the temporary storage unit 21b. The amount of coins less than the full amount from the temporary storage unit 21c is stored in the storage box 24c having the second largest remaining capacity. When the same true coin is an amount that can be temporarily stored by denomination mixing only in the temporary storage units 21a to 21d, the full amount of coins from each of the temporary storage units 21a to 21c is stored in the storage boxes 24a to 24a. The amount of coins stored in the storage box 24d is stored in the storage box 24d, and similar true coins are temporarily stored only in the temporary storage sections 21a to 21e by denomination mixing. When the amount is possible, the full amount of coins is stored in the storage boxes 24a to 24d from each of the temporary storage units 21a to 21d, and the amount of coins less than the full amount is stored from the temporary storage unit 21e. When the same true coin is stored in the box 24e and is in an amount that can be temporarily stored in the temporary storage portions 21a to 21f by denomination mixing, the temporary storage portions 21a to 21e. Each of fullness of the coin stored in the storage box 24a~24e from each coin of fullness following amounts is to be housed in the housing box 24f from the temporary storage portion 21f.

なお、以上においては、一の入金処理の開始時点で、硬貨を収納可能な残容量の多い順番が、収納ボックス２４ａ、収納ボックス２４ｂ、収納ボックス２４ｃ、収納ボックス２４ｄ、収納ボックス２４ｅ、収納ボックス２４ｆの順であった場合を一例として説明したが、残容量の多い順番は、勿論、時点時点で異なることになり、いずれの場合も、残容量の多い順番に応じて、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆへの一時貯留の順番を上記例に対し入れ替えるのみである。   In the above, at the start of one depositing process, the order of the remaining capacity in which coins can be stored is the storage box 24a, storage box 24b, storage box 24c, storage box 24d, storage box 24e, storage box 24f. However, the order in which the remaining capacity is large will of course differ at the time point, and in either case, the temporary storage units 21a to 21f are in accordance with the order in which the remaining capacity is large. The order of temporary storage is simply changed with respect to the above example.

以上のようにして、混合計数モードの入金処理の場合は、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆに、常に残容量が最も多いものから順に硬貨を収納させるように、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆにこの残容量の順と同じ順番で可能な限りの硬貨を一時貯留させることになるため、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆは、平均的に残容量が減ることになって、平均的に残容量を残すことができる。このため、大量の硬貨を一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆの全部を使って収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆに収納させる場合に、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆのうちの一つの残容量が足りないため収納できる硬貨量が減ってしまうという状況を極力回避できることになる。   As described above, in the case of the deposit processing in the mixed counting mode, the temporary storage units 21a to 21f store the remaining capacity so that coins are always stored in the storage boxes 24a to 24f in order from the largest remaining capacity. Since coins as much as possible are temporarily stored in the same order as the order, the storage boxes 24a to 24f can reduce the remaining capacity on average and leave the remaining capacity on average. For this reason, when a large amount of coins are stored in the storage boxes 24a to 24f using all of the temporary storage portions 21a to 21f, the remaining capacity of one of the storage boxes 24a to 24f is insufficient, so that the amount of coins that can be stored is large. The situation of decreasing will be avoided as much as possible.

つまり、収納ボックス２４ａが満杯に近い場合には、硬貨を一時貯留部２１ａに一時貯留可能であるにもかかわらず、一時貯留部２１ａに一時貯留させることができず、残りの一時貯留部２１ｂ〜２１ｆのみに一時貯留させることになるため、残りの一時貯留部２１ｂ〜２１ｆに対応する収納ボックス２４ｂ〜２４ｆの残容量に余裕があっても、一の入金処理では一時貯留部２１ｂ〜２１ｆの一時貯留分しか硬貨を収納できないことになる。このような状況を抑制するように、混合計数モードが選択された場合には全部の収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆの残容量を常に平均的に残すように収納を振り分けるのである。   That is, when the storage box 24a is almost full, coins can be temporarily stored in the temporary storage unit 21a, but cannot be temporarily stored in the temporary storage unit 21a. Since the temporary storage is performed only in 21f, even if there is a surplus capacity in the storage boxes 24b to 24f corresponding to the remaining temporary storage units 21b to 21f, the temporary storage units 21b to 21f are temporarily stored in one deposit process. Coins can be stored only for the amount stored. In order to suppress such a situation, when the mixed counting mode is selected, the storage is distributed so that the remaining capacity of all the storage boxes 24a to 24f is always left on average.

ここで、一の入金処理で、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆの全部での一時貯留が不可な量の真の硬貨が識別部１１で検出された場合、制御部２８は、それ以後の硬貨をすべてリジェクト部１２のシャッタ１５ｇを開いてリジェクト孔１４ｇからリジェクトボックス２０に案内し、リジェクトボックス２０を介して操作者に返却する。そして、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆで一時貯留された硬貨についてのみ、金種別の計数結果および合計金額を表示操作部２９へ表示させ、操作者により表示操作部２９へ承認操作が入力されると、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆに収納させることになり、その後、操作者は、リジェクトボックス２０に返却された硬貨を再びホッパ６に投入して別の入金処理として処理する。   Here, when the amount of true coins that cannot be temporarily stored in all of the temporary storage units 21a to 21f is detected by the identification unit 11 in one depositing process, the control unit 28 removes all the subsequent coins. The shutter 15g of the reject unit 12 is opened, guided to the reject box 20 through the reject hole 14g, and returned to the operator via the reject box 20. Then, only the coins temporarily stored in the temporary storage units 21a to 21f are displayed on the display operation unit 29 with the denomination counting result and the total amount, and when an approval operation is input to the display operation unit 29 by the operator, Then, the operator stores the coins returned to the reject box 20 into the hopper 6 again and processes it as another deposit process.

また、一の入金処理で、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆのうちの最も収納可能な残容量が多いものから順に硬貨を収納させるように一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆの対応するものに硬貨を一時貯留させている最中に、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆのうちの最も収納可能な残容量が多いものの残容量を超える量の硬貨が識別部１１で検出された場合には、制御部２８は、残容量に相当する収納可能な量の硬貨のみを一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆの対応する最初の一つに一時貯留させ、残容量を超える硬貨を、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆのうちの次に収納可能な残容量が多いものに収納させるように一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆの対応する次の一つに一時貯留させる。さらに、この最中に、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆのうちの前記次に収納可能な残容量が多いものの残容量を超える量の硬貨が識別部１１で検出された場合には、制御部２８は、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆのうちの前記次に収納可能な残容量が多いものの残容量に相当する収納可能な量の硬貨のみを一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆの対応する前記次の一つに一時貯留させ、残容量を超える硬貨を、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆのうちのさらに次に収納可能な残容量が少ないものに収納させるように一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆの対応するさらに次の一つに一時貯留させる。同様にして、順次、残容量の多い順に残容量に対応する量を収納させるように硬貨を振り分け、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆのうちの最も収納可能な残容量が少ないものの残容量を超える量の硬貨が識別部１１で検出された場合には、制御部２８は、その後の硬貨をすべてリジェクト部１２からリジェクトボックス２０に案内し、リジェクトボックス２０を介して操作者に返却する。なお、この場合、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆから収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆに硬貨を収納させると、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆのいずれかが満杯になるが、このとき、制御部２８は満杯であることを表示操作部２９に表示させて収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆの回収を促すことになる。   Further, in one depositing process, the coins are temporarily stored in the corresponding ones of the temporary storage units 21a to 21f so that the coins are stored in order from the storage box 24a to 24f with the largest remaining capacity that can be stored. When the identifying unit 11 detects a coin exceeding the remaining capacity of the storage boxes 24a to 24f that has the largest capacity that can be stored, the control unit 28 corresponds to the remaining capacity. Only the amount of coins that can be stored is temporarily stored in the corresponding first one of the temporary storage units 21a to 21f, and the remaining capacity that can be stored next to the coins exceeding the remaining capacity among the storage boxes 24a to 24f is Temporary storage is performed in the next corresponding one of the temporary storage units 21a to 21f so as to be stored in many items. Further, during this time, when the discriminating unit 11 detects an amount of coins that exceeds the remaining capacity of the storage boxes 24a to 24f, but the remaining capacity can be stored next, the control unit 28 Of the storage boxes 24a to 24f, only the amount of coins that can be stored corresponding to the remaining capacity of the storage box 24a to 24f that has a large remaining capacity can be temporarily stored in the corresponding one of the temporary storage units 21a to 21f. The coins that exceed the remaining capacity are temporarily stored in the next corresponding one of the temporary storage units 21a to 21f so as to be stored in the storage box 24a to 24f that has the smaller remaining capacity that can be stored next. . Similarly, coins are sorted so as to store the amount corresponding to the remaining capacity in order of increasing remaining capacity, and the amount of coins exceeding the remaining capacity of the storage boxes 24a to 24f, although the remaining capacity is the smallest. Is detected by the identification unit 11, the control unit 28 guides all subsequent coins from the reject unit 12 to the reject box 20 and returns them to the operator via the reject box 20. In this case, when coins are stored in the storage boxes 24a to 24f from the temporary storage units 21a to 21f, one of the storage boxes 24a to 24f becomes full. At this time, the control unit 28 is determined to be full. Display on the display / operation unit 29 prompts collection of the storage boxes 24a to 24f.

「モード設定なし」
次に、表示操作部２９への設定入力がなく、混合計数モードおよび選別計数モードのいずれも選択設定されてない状態にある場合を説明する。 "No mode setting"
Next, a case where there is no setting input to the display operation unit 29 and neither the mixed counting mode nor the selection counting mode is selected and set will be described.

硬貨入出金機１で一の入金処理が表示操作部２９へのスタート操作で開始された時点で、混合計数モードおよび選別計数モードのいずれも選択設定されてない状態にあると、制御部２６は、各収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆに収納されている各金種別の出金用収納硬貨枚数がすべて、それぞれに対応する上側モード判定値を超えていると判断した場合には、上記した混合計数モードを自動的に選択し、混合計数モードで入金処理を行う。つまり、収納出金部２７ａに収納されている１円硬貨の出金用収納硬貨枚数が収納出金部２７ａ用の上側モード判定値を超えているか否かの判断と、収納出金部２７ｂに収納されている５円硬貨の出金用収納硬貨枚数が収納出金部２７ｂ用の上側モード判定値を超えているか否かの判断と、収納出金部２７ｃに収納されている１０円硬貨の出金用収納硬貨枚数が収納出金部２７ｃ用の上側モード判定値を超えているか否かの判断と、収納出金部２７ｄに収納されている５０円硬貨の出金用収納硬貨枚数が収納出金部２７ｄ用の上側モード判定値を超えているか否かの判断と、収納出金部２７ｅに収納されている１００円硬貨の出金用収納硬貨枚数が収納出金部２７ｅ用の上側モード判定値を超えているか否かの判断と、収納出金部２７ｆに収納されている５００円硬貨の出金用収納硬貨枚数が収納出金部２７ｆ用の上側モード判定値を超えているか否かの判断とをそれぞれ行う。   When one depositing process in the coin depositing / dispensing machine 1 is started by a start operation to the display operation unit 29, if neither the mixed counting mode nor the sorting counting mode is selected and set, the control unit 26 When it is determined that the number of stored coins for withdrawal of each money type stored in each of the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f exceeds the corresponding upper mode determination value, the above mixed count The mode is automatically selected and deposit processing is performed in the mixed counting mode. That is, it is determined whether or not the number of stored coins for withdrawal of 1-yen coins stored in the storage / withdrawal unit 27a exceeds the upper mode determination value for the storage / withdrawal unit 27a, and the storage / withdrawal unit 27b Judgment whether or not the number of stored coins for withdrawal of the 5-yen coins stored exceeds the upper mode determination value for the stored withdrawal unit 27b, and the 10-yen coins stored in the storage withdrawal unit 27c Judgment whether or not the number of stored coins for withdrawal exceeds the upper mode determination value for the stored / withdrawal unit 27c, and the number of stored coins for withdrawal of 50 yen coins stored in the stored / withdrawal unit 27d are stored. Judgment whether or not the upper mode determination value for the withdrawal unit 27d is exceeded, and the number of stored coins for withdrawal of 100 yen coins stored in the stored withdrawal unit 27e is the upper mode for the stored withdrawal unit 27e. Judgment as to whether or not the judgment value is exceeded and it is stored in the storage / withdrawal unit 27f Performed by dispensing for accommodating coins the number of 500-yen coins are whether exceeds the upper mode determination value for accommodating dispensing unit 27f determines and respectively.

そして、上記判断がすべてＹＥＳ、つまり各金種別の出金用収納硬貨枚数がすべて対応する上側モード判定値を超えている場合に、制御部２８は、上記した混合計数モードを自動的に選択し、混合計数モードで入金処理を行う。なお、上記した上側モード判定値は、予め設定されるもので、出金処理が行われた場合に十分に対応可能な硬貨量に設定される。つまり、出金処理に十分対応可能な硬貨量がすべての収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆに収納されている場合には、収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆへの硬貨の補充は不要であると判断して、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに金種混合のまま一時貯留した硬貨を自動的に収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆに受け渡すのである。   When all the above determinations are YES, that is, when the number of stored coins for withdrawal of each money type exceeds the corresponding upper mode determination value, the control unit 28 automatically selects the above-described mixed counting mode. Then, deposit processing is performed in the mixed counting mode. Note that the above-described upper mode determination value is set in advance, and is set to a coin quantity that can be sufficiently handled when the withdrawal process is performed. That is, when the amount of coins that can sufficiently handle the withdrawal process is stored in all the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f, it is determined that it is not necessary to replenish the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f. Thus, the coins temporarily stored in the temporary storage units 21a to 21f while being denominated are automatically transferred to the storage boxes 24a to 24f.

他方、制御部２８は、上記判断のいずれかがＮＯ、つまり各金種別の出金用収納硬貨枚数のいずれかが対応する上側モード判定値未満である場合には、上記した選別計数モードを自動的に選択し、選別計数モードで入金処理を行う。つまり、出金処理に十分対応可能な硬貨量が収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆのいずれかに収納されていない場合には、収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆへの硬貨の補充が必要であると判断して、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに金種別に一時貯留した硬貨を自動的に収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆに金種別に受け渡すのである。   On the other hand, if any of the above determinations is NO, that is, if any of the number of stored coins for withdrawal of each denomination is less than the corresponding upper mode determination value, the control unit 28 automatically selects the above-described selection counting mode. The deposit processing is performed in the sorting counting mode. That is, when the amount of coins that can sufficiently cope with the withdrawal process is not stored in any of the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f, it is determined that the coins need to be replenished to the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f. The coins temporarily stored in the denominations in the temporary storage units 21a to 21f are automatically transferred to the denominations 27a to 27f in the denomination.

ここで、上記にかえて、以下のようにモードを自動設定することも可能となっている。
硬貨入出金機１で一の入金処理が表示操作部２９へのスタート操作で開始された時点で、混合計数モードおよび選別計数モードのいずれも選択設定されてない状態にあると、制御部２６は、各収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆに収納されている各金種別の出金用収納硬貨枚数のいずれかが、対応する下側モード判定値未満と判断した場合には、上記した選別計数モードを自動的に選択し、選別計数モードで入金処理を行う。つまり、収納出金部２７ａに収納されている１円硬貨の出金用収納硬貨枚数が収納出金部２７ａ用の下側モード判定値未満であるか否かの判断と、収納出金部２７ｂに収納されている５円硬貨の出金用収納硬貨枚数が収納出金部２７ｂ用の下側モード判定値未満であるか否かの判断と、収納出金部２７ｃに収納されている１０円硬貨の出金用収納硬貨枚数が収納出金部２７ｃ用の下側モード判定値未満であるか否かの判断と、収納出金部２７ｄに収納されている５０円硬貨の出金用収納硬貨枚数が収納出金部２７ｄ用の下側モード判定値未満であるか否かの判断と、収納出金部２７ｅに収納されている１００円硬貨の出金用収納硬貨枚数が収納出金部２７ｅ用の下側モード判定値未満であるか否かの判断と、収納出金部２７ｆに収納されている５００円硬貨の出金用収納硬貨枚数が収納出金部２７ｆ用の下側モード判定値未満であるか否かの判断とをそれぞれ行う。 Here, in place of the above, the mode can be automatically set as follows.
When one depositing process in the coin depositing / dispensing machine 1 is started by a start operation to the display operation unit 29, if neither the mixed counting mode nor the sorting counting mode is selected and set, the control unit 26 When any one of the stored coins for withdrawal of each type of money stored in each of the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f is determined to be less than the corresponding lower mode determination value, the above-described sorting counting mode is set. Automatically select and perform deposit process in sorting counting mode. That is, it is determined whether or not the number of stored coins for withdrawal of 1-yen coins stored in the storage / withdrawal unit 27a is less than the lower mode determination value for the storage / withdrawal unit 27a, and the storage / withdrawal unit 27b. 10 coins stored in the storage / withdrawal unit 27c and whether or not the number of stored coins for withdrawal of the 5-yen coins stored in the storage unit is less than the lower mode determination value for the storage / withdrawal unit 27b. Determination of whether or not the number of stored coins for withdrawal of coins is less than the lower mode determination value for the stored / withdrawal unit 27c, and storage coins for withdrawal of 50-yen coins stored in the stored / withdrawal unit 27d Judgment whether or not the number of sheets is less than the lower mode determination value for the storage / withdrawal unit 27d, and the number of stored coins for withdrawal of 100 yen coins stored in the storage / withdrawal unit 27e. And whether it is less than the lower mode determination value for use and stored in the storage / withdrawal unit 27f. Performing payment for accommodating coins the number of 500-yen coins is less than the lower mode determination value for accommodating dispensing unit 27f determines whether the respectively.

そして、上記判断のいずれかがＹＥＳ、つまり各金種別の出金用収納硬貨枚数のうちのいずれかが対応する下側モード判定値未満である場合に、制御部２８は、上記した選別計数モードを自動的に選択し、選別計数モードで入金処理を行う。なお、下側モード判定値は、予め設定されるもので、上記した上側モード判定値よりも低く、出金処理が行われた場合に十分にこの出金処理に対応できないと判断される硬貨量が設定される。つまり、収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆのいずれかの硬貨量が出金処理に対応できない硬貨量である場合には、収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆへの硬貨の補充が必要であると判断して、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに金種別に一時貯留した硬貨を自動的に収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆに金種別に受け渡すのである。   If any of the above determinations is YES, that is, if any of the number of stored coins for withdrawal of each denomination is less than the corresponding lower mode determination value, the control unit 28 selects the above-described sorting counting mode. Is automatically selected and deposit processing is performed in the sorting counting mode. The lower mode determination value is set in advance and is lower than the upper mode determination value described above, and the amount of coins that is determined to be insufficient for the withdrawal process when the withdrawal process is performed. Is set. That is, when the amount of coins in any of the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f is the amount of coins that cannot be applied to the withdrawal process, it is determined that the coins need to be replenished to the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f. The coins temporarily stored in the denominations in the temporary storage units 21a to 21f are automatically transferred to the denominations 27a to 27f in the denomination.

他方、制御部２８は、上記判断のすべてがＮＯ、つまり各金種別の出金用収納硬貨枚数のすべてが、それぞれ対応する下側モード判定値以上である場合には、上記した混合計数モードを自動的に選択し、混合計数モードで入金処理を行う。つまり、出金処理に対応可能な最小限以上の硬貨量が収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆのすべてに収納されている場合には、収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆへの硬貨の補充が不要であると判断して、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに金種混合のまま一時貯留した硬貨を自動的に収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆに受け渡すのである。なお、上記した上側モード判定値での判断を使用するか下側モード判定値での判断を使用するかは、顧客が状況に応じて設定する。   On the other hand, when all of the above determinations are NO, that is, when all of the number of stored coins for withdrawal of each money type are equal to or higher than the corresponding lower mode determination value, the control unit 28 sets the above-described mixed counting mode. Select automatically and deposit in mixed counting mode. That is, when coins more than the minimum that can be withdrawn are stored in all of the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f, it is not necessary to replenish the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f. Therefore, the coins temporarily stored in the temporary storage units 21a to 21f while being denominated are automatically transferred to the storage boxes 24a to 24f. Whether to use the determination based on the upper mode determination value or the determination based on the lower mode determination value is set by the customer according to the situation.

以上に述べた本実施形態の硬貨入出金機１によれば、表示操作部２９で選別計数モードが選択されているとき、制御部２８は、分離供給部５に投入された硬貨の中から真の硬貨を、振分部１３ａ〜１３ｆで金種別に振り分けて複数の一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに金種別で一時貯留させた後に複数の収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆに金種別で収納させることになるため、硬貨を金種別に分けて収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆに収納でき、入金硬貨を出金用として使用することができる。また、収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆへの硬貨の補充が不要である場合には、複数の一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに金種別で一時貯留させた硬貨を複数の収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆに収納させることになって、オーバーフローに起因した動作停止を抑制できる。一方、表示操作部２９で混合計数モードが選択されているとき、制御部２８は、分離供給部５に投入された硬貨の中から真の硬貨を、振分部１３ａ〜１３ｆで一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆのうちの複数のものに分けてそれぞれ金種混合で一時貯留させた後に、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆのうちの対応するものにそれぞれ金種混合で収納させることになるため、それまでの収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆの収納状況等に応じて、硬貨を複数の一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに分けて一時貯留させて複数の収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆに分けて収納させることができる。したがって、硬貨を複数の収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆの残容量を平均的に減らすように収納すること等が可能となり、効率的に収納することが可能となる。また、混合計数モードが選択されていて、硬貨を大量に受け入れる場合に、複数の一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆにこれらが満杯になるまで硬貨を一時貯留させることが可能となり、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆから収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆへの受け渡しの回数を最小限にできて入金処理を短時間で行うことができる。しかも、混合計数モードが選択されているとき、上記したように硬貨を複数の収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆの残容量を平均的に減らすように収納することが可能となることから、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆのうちの一つの残容量が原因で、複数の一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに最大限に硬貨を一時貯留させることができないという状況の発生を防止できる。   According to the coin depositing and dispensing machine 1 of the present embodiment described above, when the selection counting mode is selected by the display operation unit 29, the control unit 28 is true from the coins input to the separation supply unit 5. The coins are sorted into denominations by the sorting units 13a to 13f and temporarily stored in the plurality of temporary storage units 21a to 21f by denomination, and then stored in the plurality of storage and withdrawal units 27a to 27f by denomination. Therefore, the coins can be divided into denominations and stored in the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f, and the deposited coins can be used for withdrawal. Moreover, when it is not necessary to replenish coins in the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f, the coins temporarily stored in the plurality of temporary storage units 21a to 21f by denomination are stored in the storage boxes 24a to 24f. As a result, it is possible to suppress the operation stop caused by the overflow. On the other hand, when the mixing / counting mode is selected in the display operation unit 29, the control unit 28 uses the sorting units 13a to 13f to store the true coins from the coins input into the separation supply unit 5 and the temporary storage unit 21a. After being divided into a plurality of items of ~ 21f and temporarily stored by denomination mixing, each corresponding one of the storage boxes 24a to 24f is stored by denomination mixing. Depending on the storage status of the boxes 24a to 24f, the coins can be temporarily stored by being divided into a plurality of temporary storage portions 21a to 21f and stored in the plurality of storage boxes 24a to 24f. Therefore, it is possible to store coins so that the remaining capacity of the plurality of storage boxes 24a to 24f is reduced on average, and the coins can be stored efficiently. In addition, when the mixed counting mode is selected and a large amount of coins are received, the plurality of temporary storage units 21a to 21f can temporarily store coins until they are full, and the temporary storage units 21a to 21f. The number of transfers to the storage boxes 24a to 24f can be minimized, and the deposit process can be performed in a short time. Moreover, when the mixed counting mode is selected, as described above, coins can be stored so as to reduce the remaining capacity of the plurality of storage boxes 24a to 24f on average, so that the storage boxes 24a to 24f are stored. Due to one of the remaining capacities, it is possible to prevent a situation in which coins cannot be temporarily stored in the plurality of temporary storage units 21a to 21f to the maximum extent.

また、表示操作部２９で、混合計数モードが選択されていて、硬貨を大量に受け入れる場合に、制御部２８は、分離供給部５に投入された硬貨の中から真の硬貨を、複数の収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆのそれぞれの収納可能な残容量に応じて、最も残容量が多いものから順に金種混合で収納させるように複数の一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆのいずれかにそれぞれ満杯となるまで金種混合で一時貯留させて収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆの対応するものに金種混合で収納させることができる。したがって、複数の収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆの残容量を平均的に減らすように硬貨を収納できることになる。加えて、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆの収納容量が同じ場合には、回収の際に、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆに平均的に硬貨が収納されていることになるため、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆの個々の持ち運びが容易となる。   In addition, when the mixed counting mode is selected in the display operation unit 29 and a large amount of coins is received, the control unit 28 stores a plurality of true coins from among the coins input to the separation supply unit 5. Depending on the remaining capacity that can be stored in each of the boxes 24a to 24f, gold is stored in any of the plurality of temporary storage units 21a to 21f so as to be stored by denomination mixing in order from the largest remaining capacity. It can be temporarily stored by seed mixing and stored in the corresponding ones of the storage boxes 24a to 24f by denomination mixing. Therefore, coins can be stored so that the remaining capacity of the plurality of storage boxes 24a to 24f is reduced on average. In addition, when the storage capacity of the storage boxes 24a to 24f is the same, since coins are stored in the storage boxes 24a to 24f on average at the time of collection, the individual storage boxes 24a to 24f Easy to carry.

加えて、表示操作部２９で、選別計数モードが選択されているとき、制御部２８は、各一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに金種別で一時貯留された各金種別の硬貨枚数および各収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆに収納されている各金種別の出金用収納硬貨枚数から各金種別の合計値を求め、当該各合計値がすべて、収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆのうちのそれぞれに対応するものの収納判定値以下の場合には、各一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに金種別で一時貯留された硬貨を各収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆに金種別に受け渡す一方、各合計値のいずれかが、収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆのうちの対応するものの収納判定値を超えている場合には、各一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに金種別で一時貯留された硬貨を各収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆに金種別に受け渡すことになる。よって、収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆに良好に硬貨を補充できるとともに、収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆのオーバーフローを避けるために処理を停止させる必要がなくなる。しかも、複数の一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆを上記のように一体に移動させる構造に適した処理であるため、装置構成を簡素化可能となる。   In addition, when the sorting / counting mode is selected on the display / operation unit 29, the control unit 28 counts the number of coins of each denomination and each stored withdrawal in the temporary storage units 21a to 21f. The total value of each denomination is obtained from the number of stored coins for withdrawal of each denomination stored in the sections 27a to 27f, and each of the total values corresponds to each of the stored withdrawal sections 27a to 27f. If the value is less than or equal to the storage determination value, the coins temporarily stored by denomination in each temporary storage unit 21a to 21f are transferred to each storage and withdrawal unit 27a to 27f by denomination, while any of the total values is When the storage determination value of the corresponding one of the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f is exceeded, the coins temporarily stored in the temporary storage units 21a to 21f by denomination are stored in the storage boxes 24a to 24f. To pass to the type That. Therefore, coins can be satisfactorily replenished in the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f, and it is not necessary to stop the processing to avoid overflow of the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f. And since it is a process suitable for the structure which moves several temporary storage parts 21a-21f integrally as mentioned above, it becomes possible to simplify an apparatus structure.

さらに、制御部２８は、表示操作部２９で、混合計数モードおよび選別計数モードのいずれも選択されていないとき、表示操作部２９により入金処理のスタート操作がなされた時点で、各収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆに収納されている各金種別の出金用収納硬貨枚数がすべて、それぞれに対応する上側モード判定値を超えていると判断した場合、つまり、すべての収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆに十分に出金用収納硬貨が収納されている場合には、自動的に混合計数モードを選択する。あるいは、表示操作部２９で、入金処理のスタート操作がなされた時点で、各収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆに収納されている各金種別の出金用収納硬貨枚数のうちのいずれかが、対応する下側モード判定値未満であると判断した場合、つまり、収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆのいずれかで十分な量の出金用収納硬貨が収納されていない場合には、自動的に選別計数モードを選択する。いずれにおいても、モード選択を行わなくても自動的に最適なモードに設定されるため、操作者の負担を減らすことができる。   Furthermore, when neither the mixed counting mode nor the sorting counting mode is selected by the display operation unit 29, the control unit 28, when the deposit operation is started by the display operation unit 29, each storage / withdrawal unit When it is determined that the number of stored coins for withdrawal of each money type stored in 27a to 27f exceeds the corresponding upper mode determination value, that is, to all the stored withdrawal units 27a to 27f. When the storage coins for withdrawal are sufficiently stored, the mixed counting mode is automatically selected. Alternatively, at the time when the deposit operation is started on the display operation unit 29, any one of the stored coins for withdrawal of each money type stored in each of the storage / withdrawal units 27a to 27f is supported. When it is determined that the value is less than the lower mode determination value, that is, when a sufficient amount of storage coins is not stored in any of the storage / dispensing units 27a to 27f, the sorting count is automatically performed. Select a mode. In any case, since the optimum mode is automatically set without selecting the mode, the burden on the operator can be reduced.

なお、上記した混合計数モードにおいて、例えば、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆのそれぞれの全収納容量が同じ場合に、硬貨を一枚ずつ複数の一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに順次一時貯留させることを繰り返すようにしても良い。つまり、例えば、一時貯留部２１ａ、一時貯留部２１ｂ、一時貯留部２１ｃ、一時貯留部２１ｄ、一時貯留部２１ｅ、一時貯留部２１ｆ、一時貯留部２１ａ、…のように、入金処理の度に、すべての一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに平均的に硬貨を一時貯留させ、すべての収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆに平均的に硬貨を収納させるのである。他方、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆのそれぞれの全収納容量が異なる場合に、収納容量に応じた割合で振り分けるようにしても良い。例えば、全収納容量の割合が、収納ボックス２４ａ：他の収納ボックス２４ｂ〜２４ｆ＝２：１である場合、一時貯留部２１ａ、一時貯留部２１ａ、一時貯留部２１ｂ、一時貯留部２１ｃ、一時貯留部２１ｄ、一時貯留部２１ｅ、一時貯留部２１ｆ、一時貯留部２１ａ、一時貯留部２１ａ、一時貯留部２１ｂ、…のように振り分けるのである。この場合、処理する硬貨が多いと、一時貯留部２１ａが最初に満杯になってしまうことになるが、一時貯留部２１ａが満杯になった後は、当然ながら一時貯留部２１ａには入れずに、残りの一時貯留部２１ｂ〜一時貯留部２１ｆに均等に振り分けて可能な限り一時貯留させることになる。   In the above-described mixed counting mode, for example, when the storage boxes 24a to 24f have the same total storage capacity, the coins are repeatedly temporarily stored one by one in the plurality of temporary storage units 21a to 21f one by one. May be. That is, for example, every time the depositing process is performed, such as the temporary storage unit 21a, the temporary storage unit 21b, the temporary storage unit 21c, the temporary storage unit 21d, the temporary storage unit 21e, the temporary storage unit 21f, the temporary storage unit 21a,. Coins are temporarily stored on average in all temporary storage units 21a to 21f, and coins are stored on average in all storage boxes 24a to 24f. On the other hand, when the total storage capacities of the storage boxes 24a to 24f are different, the storage boxes 24a to 24f may be distributed at a rate corresponding to the storage capacity. For example, when the ratio of the total storage capacity is storage box 24a: other storage boxes 24b to 24f = 2: 1, temporary storage unit 21a, temporary storage unit 21a, temporary storage unit 21b, temporary storage unit 21c, and temporary storage unit .., 21d, temporary storage unit 21e, temporary storage unit 21f, temporary storage unit 21a, temporary storage unit 21a, temporary storage unit 21b, and so on. In this case, if there are a lot of coins to be processed, the temporary storage unit 21a will be filled up first, but after the temporary storage unit 21a is full, of course, the temporary storage unit 21a is not inserted. The remaining temporary storage unit 21b to the temporary storage unit 21f are equally distributed and temporarily stored as much as possible.

ここで、収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆの硬貨の収納量および収納可能な残容量を算出するときに、単に硬貨の枚数だけで算出するのではなく、大きさの違いによる補正を行っても良い（例えば、５００円硬貨一枚に対し１円硬貨二枚を相当させる等）。さらには、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆに振り分ける際にも、このような補正を行いつつ収納させるようにしても良い。加えて、一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆの満杯検知および収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆの満杯検知のうちの少なくともいずれか一方を識別部１１の計数ではなく、硬貨の満杯状態を光学的に検出する満杯検知センサを設けて行っても良く、さらには、計数値および満杯検知センサの両方に基づいて検出するようにしても良い。   Here, when calculating the amount of coins stored and the remaining capacity that can be stored in the storage boxes 24a to 24f, correction based on the difference in size may be performed instead of merely calculating the number of coins (for example, , Equivalent to two 1-yen coins for one 500-yen coin). Furthermore, when distributing to temporary storage part 21a-21f, you may make it accommodate, performing such correction | amendment. In addition, at least one of full detection of the temporary storage units 21a to 21f and full detection of the storage boxes 24a to 24f is not a count of the identification unit 11, but a full detection sensor that optically detects the full state of coins Further, the detection may be performed based on both the count value and the fullness detection sensor.

また、図示は略すが、各一時貯留部２１ａ〜２１ｆを、それぞれ個別に移動可能として、収納出金部２７ａ〜２７ｆの対応するものおよび収納ボックス２４ａ〜２４ｆの対応するのうちのいずれか一方に選択的な硬貨の受け渡しを可能としても良い。つまり、一時貯留部２１ａを、個別に移動可能として、収納出金部２７ａおよび収納ボックス２４ａのうちのいずれか一方への選択的な硬貨の受け渡しを可能とし、一時貯留部２１ｂを、個別に移動可能として、収納出金部２７ｂおよび収納ボックス２４ｂのうちのいずれか一方への選択的な硬貨の受け渡しを可能とし、一時貯留部２１ｃを、個別に移動可能として、収納出金部２７ｃおよび収納ボックス２４ｃのうちのいずれか一方への選択的な硬貨の受け渡しを可能とし、一時貯留部２１ｄを、個別に移動可能として、収納出金部２７ｄおよび収納ボックス２４ｄのうちのいずれか一方への選択的な硬貨の受け渡しを可能とし、一時貯留部２１ｅを、個別に移動可能として、収納出金部２７ｅおよび収納ボックス２４ｅのうちのいずれか一方への選択的な硬貨の受け渡しを可能とし、一時貯留部２１ｆを、個別に移動可能として、収納出金部２７ｆおよび収納ボックス２４ｆのうちのいずれか一方への選択的な硬貨の受け渡しを可能としても良い。   Although illustration is omitted, each temporary storage part 21a-21f can be moved individually, and it corresponds to either one corresponding to storage and withdrawal part 27a-27f and corresponding one of storage boxes 24a-24f. It may be possible to selectively deliver coins. In other words, the temporary storage unit 21a can be moved individually, the coins can be selectively delivered to either the storage / withdrawal unit 27a or the storage box 24a, and the temporary storage unit 21b can be moved individually. It is possible to selectively transfer coins to any one of the storage / withdrawal unit 27b and the storage box 24b, and the temporary storage unit 21c can be moved individually to store the storage / withdrawal unit 27c and the storage box. It is possible to selectively transfer coins to any one of 24c, and the temporary storage unit 21d can be individually moved so that it can be selectively transferred to either the storage / withdrawal unit 27d or the storage box 24d. Any one of the storage / withdrawal unit 27e and the storage box 24e, allowing the temporary storage unit 21e to be moved individually.
