このような紙幣入出金機においては、業務途中において、紙幣入出金機内の一部の金種の収納量が少なくなることがあり、そのような場合においては、当該一部の金種の紙幣を、入金口を通じて、装置に補充することがある。通常の多くの場合においては、流通券が補充紙幣として補充されることになり、入金処理と収納処理の二つの処理動作と同様の入金口補充処理を行うことによって、入金口にセットされた紙幣を金種別の金種カセットに補充する。 In such a bill deposit / withdrawal machine, the storage capacity of some denominations in the bill deposit / withdrawal machine may be reduced during the business, and in such a case, the bills of some denominations may be stored. , The device may be replenished through the deposit slot. In many cases, the distribution ticket is usually replenished as a replenishment bill, and the bill set in the deposit slot is performed by performing the deposit replenishment process similar to the two processing operations of the deposit process and the storage process. To the denomination cassette of each denomination.

このとき、流通紙幣に代わって、官封券と呼ばれる、一度も市場で使用されていない新券紙幣の束から紙幣を補充することがある。ここで、官封券は、100枚の新券紙幣がその表裏および紙幣上下の向きが一致した状態で帯封により結束されているため、帯封を解いて、そのまま入金口に投入すると、すべての紙幣が、その表裏および紙幣上下の向きが一致した状態で投入されることになる。このような官封券からの紙幣の補充は、1束の場合は問題を生じることはないが、例えば、同一金種で3束(300枚)あるいは4束(400枚)と言ったように、多量になると、表裏および紙幣上下の向きが一致した状態で積み重ねられた場合には、インクにより厚さの厚い部分が集積されるとともに、厚さの薄い部分が集積されて、金種によっては、その最上面の紙幣が、紙幣の表裏および上下の4方向の特定の方向において、わずかに傾斜することがある。金種カセット内において、このように最上面の紙幣が傾斜した状態になると、最上面の紙幣から紙幣を繰り出す際に繰り出し不良を生じる可能性がある。 At this time, instead of the circulating banknotes, the banknotes may be replenished from a bundle of new banknotes called government-sealed banknotes that have never been used in the market. Here, since 100 new banknotes are bound by a strap with the front and back sides and the top and bottom directions of the banknotes matching, when the strap is unwrapped and inserted into the deposit slot as it is, all the banknotes are sealed. However, it will be inserted in a state where the front and back sides and the top and bottom directions of the bills match. Replenishment of banknotes from such officially sealed tickets does not cause any problem in the case of one bundle, but as mentioned, for example, three bundles (300 sheets) or four bundles (400 sheets) of the same denomination. When the amount is large, when the front and back and the top and bottom of the bills are stacked in the same direction, the thick part is accumulated by the ink and the thin part is accumulated, depending on the denomination. , The top surface of the bill may be slightly tilted in four specific directions, the front and back of the bill and the top and bottom. In the denomination cassette, if the banknotes on the top surface are tilted in this way, there is a possibility that a banknote failure may occur when the banknotes are fed out from the banknotes on the top surface.

[通常入金処理]
図3の太線は、機外から入出金部21に投入されたバラ紙幣を搬送しつつ識別計数して一時貯留する通常入金処理のルートを示している。つまり、操作表示部15に通常入金処理の選択操作がなされると、制御部16は、シャッタ20を開き、その後、入出金部21の載置板22上にバラ紙幣が載置されたことを紙幣検知センサ19で検知して、操作表示部15に通常入金処理の実行操作がなされると、シャッタ20を閉じ、載置板22を上昇させて、入出金繰出部24の蹴出ローラ24aに最上面の紙幣を当接させることになる。その後、入出金繰出部24が載置板22上の紙幣を最上面の紙幣から順に、蹴出ローラ24aで蹴り出し繰出ローラ24bおよび分離ローラ24cで一枚ずつに分離しつつ所定の間隔をあけて繰り出すことになり、繰り出した紙幣を、搬送路41Aで搬送することになる。搬送路41Aでの搬送中に識別部28が紙幣を識別計数することになり、識別部28で受け入れ可能と判定した紙幣(取り扱い可能な金種の紙幣)を、図3に太実線で示すように、搬送路41A,41Cで最も前側に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(E)に搬送する一方、識別部28で受け入れ不可と判定した紙幣を、図3に太破線で示すように、搬送路41Aから搬送路41N,41L,41Pで入金リジェクト部26に搬送する。これにより、受け入れ可能な紙幣を最も前側に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留し、受け入れ不可な紙幣を入金リジェクト部26に放出する。
[Normal deposit processing]
The thick line in FIG. 3 shows the route of the normal deposit processing in which the loose bills inserted into the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 from outside the machine are transported, identified and counted, and temporarily stored. That is, when the operation display unit 15 performs a normal deposit processing selection operation, the control unit 16 opens the shutter 20, and then the loose bills are placed on the mounting plate 22 of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21. When the bill detection sensor 19 detects and the operation display unit 15 performs a normal deposit processing execution operation, the shutter 20 is closed, the mounting plate 22 is raised, and the kicking roller 24a of the deposit / withdrawal feeding unit 24 is used. The banknotes on the top surface will be brought into contact with each other. After that, the deposit / withdrawal feeding unit 24 separates the banknotes on the mounting plate 22 into one sheet by the kicking roller 24a and the separating roller 24c in order from the banknote on the uppermost surface at a predetermined interval. The banknotes that have been paid out will be transported through the transport path 41A. The identification unit 28 identifies and counts banknotes during transportation in the transport path 41A, and the banknotes (banknotes of denominations that can be handled) determined to be acceptable by the identification unit 28 are shown by a thick solid line in FIG. The banknotes that are conveyed to the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) arranged on the front side of the transfer paths 41A and 41C, while the identification unit 28 determines that the banknotes are unacceptable, are conveyed by the transfer path as shown by the thick broken line in FIG. It is transported from 41A to the deposit rejecting unit 26 through the transport paths 41N, 41L, 41P. As a result, acceptable banknotes are temporarily stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) arranged on the frontmost side, and unacceptable banknotes are discharged to the deposit reject unit 26.

そして、入出金部21の紙幣がなくなったことが紙幣検知センサ19で検知され、入出金部21から繰り出されたすべての紙幣が、紙幣収納カセット35(E)および入金リジェクト部26のいずれかに搬送されると、制御部16は、識別部28で受け入れ可能と判定して紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留した紙幣の金種別の枚数および総額等を操作表示部15に表示させて、操作表示部15への承認操作およびキャンセル操作の入力を待機する。 Then, the banknote detection sensor 19 detects that the banknotes in the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 have run out, and all the banknotes drawn out from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 are placed in either the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) or the deposit / withdrawal unit 26. When the banknotes are transported, the control unit 16 determines that the banknotes can be accepted by the identification unit 28, and displays the number of denominations and the total amount of banknotes temporarily stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) on the operation display unit 15. Waits for input of approval operation and cancel operation to the operation display unit 15.

図4の太線は、通常入金処理にて最も前側に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留した紙幣を、操作表示部15への承認操作が入力されたことを条件に、確定して、奥から1番目〜4番目に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)の対応するものに収納する通常収納処理のルートを示している。つまり、最も前側に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(E)の紙幣を最上面の紙幣からその繰出部36が、蹴出ローラ36aで蹴り出し繰出ローラ36bおよび分離ローラ36cで一枚ずつに分離しつつ所定の間隔をあけて繰り出すことになり、繰り出した紙幣を、図4に太実線で示すように、搬送路41C,41A,41L,41Aで識別部28に搬送し、識別部28の識別結果に基づいて、搬送路41A,41D〜41Kの対応するものによって、奥から1番目〜4番目に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)の対応するものに搬送する。これにより、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留した紙幣を、紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)の対応するものに収納する。なお、通常収納処理にて識別部28で重送等と識別した紙幣については、図4に太破線で示すように、搬送路41A,41N,41L,41P,41Rによって出金リジェクト部27に搬送し、出金リジェクト部27に収納する。ここで、搬送路41Lにおいて、紙幣収納カセット35(E)から識別部28に向かう紙幣と、識別部28から出金リジェクト部27に向かう紙幣とが重なるタイミングのときは、紙幣収納カセット35(E)からの紙幣を繰り出しを一時停止させて、出金リジェクト部27に向かう紙幣を優先して搬送する。
[Normal storage processing]
The thick line in FIG. 4 is determined on the condition that the approval operation is input to the operation display unit 15 for the banknotes temporarily stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) arranged on the front side in the normal deposit processing. The route of the normal storage process of storing the banknotes in the corresponding items of the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D) arranged first to fourth from the back is shown. That is, the banknotes of the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) arranged on the front side are separated from the banknotes on the uppermost surface by the kicking roller 36a and the separating roller 36b and the separating roller 36c. At the same time, the banknotes are fed out at predetermined intervals, and as shown by the thick solid line in FIG. 4, the banknotes are fed to the identification unit 28 by the transport paths 41C, 41A, 41L, 41A, and the identification result of the identification unit 28. Based on the above, the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D) arranged first to fourth from the back are transported by the corresponding ones of the transport paths 41A, 41D to 41K. As a result, the bills temporarily stored in the bill storage cassette 35 (E) are stored in the corresponding bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D). Note that the banknotes identified as double-feed by the identification unit 28 in the normal storage process are transported to the withdrawal reject unit 27 by the transport paths 41A, 41N, 41L, 41P, 41R as shown by the thick broken line in FIG. Then, it is stored in the withdrawal reject section 27. Here, in the transport path 41L, when the bills from the bill storage cassette 35 (E) toward the identification unit 28 and the bills from the identification unit 28 toward the withdrawal reject unit 27 overlap, the bill storage cassette 35 (E) ) Is temporarily suspended, and the banknotes heading for the withdrawal reject unit 27 are preferentially transported.

[通常返却処理]
図5の太線は、通常入金処理にて最も前側に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留した紙幣を、操作表示部15へのキャンセル操作が入力されたことを条件に、入出金部21に繰り出す通常返却処理のルートを示している。つまり、最も前側に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(E)の紙幣を最上面の紙幣から繰出部36が、蹴出ローラ36aで蹴り出し繰出ローラ36bおよび分離ローラ36cで一枚ずつに分離しつつ所定の間隔をあけて繰り出すことになり、繰り出した紙幣を、搬送路41C,41Aによって入出金部21に搬送する。これにより、入出金部21に紙幣を返却する。
[Normal return processing]
The thick line in FIG. 5 shows the deposit and withdrawal of the bills temporarily stored in the bill storage cassette 35 (E) arranged at the frontmost side in the normal deposit processing on the condition that the cancel operation is input to the operation display unit 15. The route of the normal return processing to be sent to the part 21 is shown. That is, the banknotes of the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) arranged on the front side are separated from the banknotes on the uppermost surface by the kicking roller 36a by the kicking roller 36b and the separating roller 36c. The banknotes are fed out at predetermined intervals, and the banknotes that have been paid out are conveyed to the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 through the transport paths 41C and 41A. As a result, the banknotes are returned to the deposit / withdrawal section 21.

[バラ紙幣出金処理]
図6の太線は、操作表示部15へ入力されたバラ出金操作に基づいて、最も奥側に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(A)、奥から2番目に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(B)および奥から3番目に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(C)の指定された金種のものから紙幣を出金するバラ紙幣出金処理のルートを示している。つまり、バラ出金処理では、図6に太実線で示すように、奥から1番目〜3番目に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(C)の指定された金種のものに収納されている紙幣を最上面の紙幣から繰出部36が、蹴出ローラ36aで蹴り出し繰出ローラ36bおよび分離ローラ36cで一枚ずつに分離しつつ所定の間隔をあけて繰り出すことになり、繰り出した紙幣を、搬送路41D〜41Iの対応するものと、搬送路41Aとで識別部28に搬送し、識別部28の識別結果に基づいて、表裏反転が必要でないものは紙幣向き変更部44の並列区間部41Uを含む搬送路41Aで入出金部21に、表裏反転が必要なものは紙幣向き変更部44の搬送路41Sを介して表裏反転部43で表裏反転させた後、搬送路41Aで入出金部21に、それぞれ搬送する。これにより、出金操作に基づくバラ紙幣を入出金部21に表裏を取り揃えながら繰り出す。なお、出金処理にて識別部28で重送等と識別した紙幣については、図6に太破線で示すように、搬送路41Aから、搬送路41Q,41P,41Rによって出金リジェクト部27に搬送し、出金リジェクト部27に収納する。
[Rose banknote withdrawal processing]
The thick line in FIG. 6 shows the bill storage cassette 35 (A) arranged on the innermost side and the bill storage cassette 35 (A) arranged second from the back based on the loose withdrawal operation input to the operation display unit 15. B) and the bill storage cassette 35 (C) arranged third from the back show the route of the withdrawal processing of loose bills for withdrawing bills from the designated denomination. That is, in the bulk withdrawal process, as shown by the thick solid line in FIG. 6, the designated denominations of the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (C) arranged first to third from the back are used. The banknotes to be stored are fed out from the banknotes on the uppermost surface at a predetermined interval while being kicked out by the kicking roller 36a and separated by the feeding roller 36b and the separating roller 36c. The bills that correspond to the transport paths 41D to 41I and the transport paths 41A are transported to the identification unit 28, and based on the identification result of the identification unit 28, those that do not need to be turned upside down are those of the bill orientation changing unit 44. In the transport path 41A including the parallel section section 41U, if the deposit / withdrawal section 21 needs to be flipped, the front and back flip section 43 passes through the transport path 41S of the bill orientation changing section 44, and then the transport path 41A. Each is transported to the deposit / withdrawal section 21. As a result, the loose bills based on the withdrawal operation are sent out to the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 while aligning the front and back sides. For banknotes identified as double-feed by the identification unit 28 in the withdrawal process, as shown by the thick broken line in FIG. 6, from the transport path 41A to the withdrawal reject section 27 by the transport paths 41Q, 41P, 41R. It is transported and stored in the withdrawal reject section 27.

[束出金処理]
図7の太線は、操作表示部15へ入力された束出金操作に基づいて、奥から1番目〜3番目に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(C)の指定された金種のものからの紙幣を結束して出金する束出金処理のルートを示している。つまり、束出金処理では、図7に太実線で示すように、奥から1番目〜3番目に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(C)のうち指定された金種のものに収納されている紙幣を最上面の紙幣から繰出部36が、蹴出ローラ36aで蹴り出し繰出ローラ36bおよび分離ローラ36cで一枚ずつに分離しつつ所定の間隔をあけて繰り出すことになり、繰り出した紙幣を、搬送路41D〜41Iの対応するものと、搬送路41Aとで識別部28に搬送し、識別部28の識別結果に基づいて、表裏反転が必要でないものは紙幣向き変更部44の並列区間部41Uを含む搬送路41Aと搬送路41Tとで整列部30に、表裏反転が必要なものは紙幣向き変更部44の搬送路41Sを介して表裏反転部43で表裏反転させた後、搬送路41A,41Tで整列部30に、それぞれ搬送する。これにより、指定された単一金種の紙幣を結束単位枚数だけ整列部30に繰り出す。そして、結束部31で結束を行い、束出金部32に繰り出す。このような処理を指定された金種毎に指定された束数分行うことになる。なお、束出金処理にて識別部28で重送等と識別した紙幣については、図7に太破線で示すように、搬送路41Aから、搬送路41Q,41P,41Rによって出金リジェクト部27に搬送し、出金リジェクト部27に収納する。
[Bundle withdrawal processing]
The thick line in FIG. 7 is the designated gold of the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (C) arranged first to third from the back based on the bundle withdrawal operation input to the operation display unit 15. It shows the route of bundle withdrawal processing that bundles and withdraws banknotes from seeds. That is, in the bundle withdrawal process, as shown by the thick solid line in FIG. 7, the designated denomination of the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (C) arranged first to third from the back is used. The banknotes stored in the banknotes are fed out from the banknotes on the uppermost surface at predetermined intervals while being separated by the kicking roller 36a by the kicking roller 36b and the separating roller 36c. The delivered banknotes are transported to the identification unit 28 by the corresponding ones of the transport paths 41D to 41I and the transport paths 41A, and based on the identification result of the identification unit 28, those that do not need to be turned upside down are the bill orientation changing units 44. In the transport path 41A including the parallel section portion 41U and the transport path 41T, if the alignment portion 30 needs to be flipped, the front and back flipped portions 43 pass through the transport path 41S of the bill orientation changing section 44. , Each of the transport paths 41A and 41T is transported to the alignment unit 30. As a result, the designated single denomination banknotes are paid out to the alignment unit 30 by the number of binding units. Then, the binding portion 31 binds the binding portion 31 and the binding portion 32 pays out the binding portion 32. Such processing will be performed for the specified number of bundles for each specified denomination. For banknotes identified as double-feed or the like by the identification unit 28 in the bundle withdrawal process, as shown by the thick broken line in FIG. 7, the withdrawal reject unit 27 is used from the transfer path 41A to the transfer paths 41Q, 41P, 41R. And store it in the withdrawal reject section 27.

[補充入金処理]
ここで、通常入金処理後の通常収納処理で紙幣を収納し、バラ紙幣出金処理および束出金処理で収納している紙幣を繰り出す、奥から1番目〜3番目に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(C)においては、紙幣の収納量が所定のニアエンド値よりも少なくなることがある。そのような場合に、紙幣処理機11は、入出金部補充モードが選択設定されることによって補充入金処理を行う。すなわち、紙幣処理機11は、操作表示部15に入出金部補充モードが選択設定されることによって、補充用として入出金部21に投入された対応金種の紙幣を通常入金処理と一部異なる補充入金処理と、通常収納処理と同様の補充収納処理または通常返却処理と一部異なる補充返却処理とを行って、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留後、紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)に補充し、または入出金部21に返却することになる。
[Replenishment deposit processing]
Here, the banknote storage cassettes arranged in the first to third positions from the back, which store the banknotes in the normal storage process after the normal deposit process and pay out the banknotes stored in the loose banknote withdrawal process and the bundle withdrawal process. In 35 (A) to 35 (C), the amount of banknotes stored may be smaller than the predetermined near-end value. In such a case, the bill processing machine 11 performs the replenishment deposit processing by selectively setting the deposit / withdrawal unit replenishment mode. That is, the bill processing machine 11 partially differs from the normal deposit processing in the bills of the corresponding denominations inserted into the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 for replenishment by selecting and setting the deposit / withdrawal unit replenishment mode on the operation display unit 15. After performing the replenishment deposit process, the replenishment storage process similar to the normal storage process, or the replenishment return process partially different from the normal return process, the banknotes are temporarily stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E), and then the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to It will be replenished to 35 (D) or returned to the deposit / withdrawal section 21.

補充入金処理は、図3に太線で示す通常入金処理ルートと同様の補充入金処理ルートで紙幣を移動させることになる。ここで、入出金部補充モードでの補充入金処理において、補充用紙幣として官封券の帯封が解かれた状態の新券紙幣が使用される場合がある。この場合に、新券紙幣が、同一金種で例えば3束(300枚)、4束(400枚)と言ったように多量に補充されると、紙幣表裏および紙幣上下の向きが一致した状態で、紙幣収納カセット35(E)のエレベータ38上に積み重ねられたり、紙幣収納カセット35(E)から繰り出されて紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)のエレベータ38上に積み重ねられたりすることがある。すると、各紙幣のインクにより厚さの厚い部分が集積され、厚さの薄い部分が集積されて、積み重ねられた状態の紙幣の最上面の紙幣に傾斜を生じてしまうことがある。 In the replenishment deposit processing, the banknotes are moved by the same replenishment deposit processing route as the normal deposit processing route shown by the thick line in FIG. Here, in the replenishment deposit processing in the deposit / withdrawal section replenishment mode, a new banknote in a state in which the officially sealed ticket is unwrapped may be used as the replenishment banknote. In this case, when a large amount of new banknotes are replenished with the same denomination, for example, 3 bundles (300 sheets) and 4 bundles (400 sheets), the front and back sides of the banknotes and the top and bottom of the banknotes are in the same direction. Then, they may be stacked on the elevator 38 of the bill storage cassette 35 (E), or may be unwound from the bill storage cassette 35 (E) and stacked on the elevator 38 of the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D). Sometimes. Then, the thick portions are accumulated by the ink of each banknote, and the thin portions are accumulated, which may cause an inclination of the banknotes on the uppermost surface of the stacked banknotes.

例えば、特定金種の新券紙幣においては、紙幣上側と紙幣下側とにおいて、その積み上げ高さに違いが出て、積み上げられた紙幣のうちの最上面の紙幣の紙幣上側と紙幣下側、すなわち、紙幣の短手方向において、一側が高く逆側が低くなるように傾斜することがある。このような傾斜を生じる特定金種をAタイプ金種とする。Aタイプ金種としては、万円券および千円券があり、万円券の場合、紙幣上側の方が紙幣下側よりも高くなり、千円券の場合、紙幣下側の方が紙幣上側よりも高くなる。 For example, in a new banknote of a specific denomination, there is a difference in the stacking height between the upper side of the banknote and the lower side of the banknote. That is, in the lateral direction of the bill, it may be inclined so that one side is high and the other side is low. A specific denomination that causes such an inclination is referred to as an A type denomination. There are 10,000-yen bills and 1000-yen bills as A-type denominations. In the case of 10,000-yen bills, the upper side of the bill is higher than the lower side of the bill, and in the case of 1000-yen bills, the lower side of the bill is the upper side of the bill. Will be higher than.

また、例えば、他の特定金種の新券紙幣においては、紙幣左側と紙幣右側において、その積み上げ高さに違いが出て、積み上げられた紙幣のうちの最上面の紙幣の紙幣左側と紙幣右側、すなわち、紙幣の長手方向において、一側が高く逆側が低くなるように傾斜することがある。このような傾斜を生じる特定金種をBタイプ金種とする。Bタイプ金種としては、5千円券があり、5千円券の場合、人物像側の方が反対側よりも高くなる。 Further, for example, in the case of new banknotes of other specific denominations, there is a difference in the stacking height between the left side of the banknote and the right side of the banknote, and the left side of the banknote and the right side of the banknote on the top surface of the stacked banknotes are different. That is, in the longitudinal direction of the bill, it may be inclined so that one side is high and the other side is low. A specific denomination that causes such an inclination is referred to as a B type denomination. As a B type denomination, there is a 5,000 yen ticket, and in the case of a 5,000 yen ticket, the person image side is higher than the opposite side.

これらAタイプ金種およびBタイプ金種のように、積み上げられた状態で最上面の紙幣が傾斜した状態になると、最上面の紙幣から順に紙幣を繰り出す繰出部36において、繰り出し不良を生じる可能性がある。すなわち、繰出部36は、鉛直方向に積み上げられた紙幣を最上面の紙幣から繰り出す機構であり、積み重ねられた状態の紙幣は、最上面の紙幣の短手方向の中央部分が蹴出ローラ36aに当接し、蹴出ローラ36aによって蹴り出された後、蹴り出し方向前方にある繰出ローラ36bと分離ローラ36cとによって構成された分離繰出機構によって一枚ずつに分離して繰り出されることになる。このような構成の繰出部36に対して、最上面の紙幣が傾斜していると、繰出ローラ36bと分離ローラ36cとからなる分離繰出機構に向けた正しい集積状態とならずに、あるいは、蹴出ローラ36aに正しく接触できなかったりして、正常な分離繰り出しができないと言った繰り出し不良を発生する可能性がある。 Like these A-type denominations and B-type denominations, if the top-faced banknotes are tilted in a stacked state, there is a possibility that a feeding failure may occur in the feeding section 36 that feeds out the banknotes in order from the top-sided banknote. There is. That is, the payout unit 36 is a mechanism for feeding out the bills stacked in the vertical direction from the topmost bill, and in the stacked bills, the central portion of the topmost bill in the lateral direction is on the kicking roller 36a. After abutting and being kicked out by the kicking roller 36a, they are separated and fed one by one by a separation feeding mechanism composed of a feeding roller 36b and a separating roller 36c located in front of the kicking direction. If the banknote on the uppermost surface is tilted with respect to the feeding portion 36 having such a configuration, the correct stacking state for the separating feeding mechanism including the feeding roller 36b and the separating roller 36c may not be obtained, or kicking may occur. There is a possibility that the feeding roller 36a cannot be contacted correctly, resulting in a feeding failure such that normal separation feeding cannot be performed.

例えば、紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(E)において、図8(a)の3面図に示すように、Aタイプ金種である万円券の紙幣を鉛直上側に表面Hを向け、紙幣下側を繰出ローラ36bおよび分離ローラ36c側に向けた状態で集積させると、最上面の紙幣S1が、蹴出ローラ36a側が高く繰出ローラ36bおよび分離ローラ36c側が低くなる。このような状態になると、蹴出ローラ36aで蹴り出された紙幣S1は、繰出ローラ36bおよび分離ローラ36cに先端が向かわず、繰出ローラ36bおよび分離ローラ36cで繰り出せなかったり、繰り出せても斜行等の搬送不良を生じてしまう可能性がある。 For example, in the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (E), as shown in the three views of FIG. When the banknotes are accumulated with the lower side of the banknotes facing the feeding roller 36b and the separating roller 36c side, the banknote S1 on the uppermost surface is higher on the kicking roller 36a side and lower on the feeding roller 36b and the separating roller 36c side. In such a state, the bill S1 kicked out by the kicking roller 36a cannot be fed by the feeding roller 36b and the separating roller 36c because the tip of the bill S1 does not face the feeding roller 36b and the separating roller 36c, or even if it can be fed, it is skewed. There is a possibility of causing poor transportation such as.

また、図8(b)の3面図に示すように、Bタイプ金種の紙幣である五千円券の紙幣を鉛直上側に表面Hを向け、紙幣下側を繰出ローラ36bおよび分離ローラ36c側に向けた状態で集積させると、最上面の紙幣S1が、紙幣左右方向において人物像J側が反対側よりも高くなる。このような状態になると、蹴出ローラ36aで蹴り出された紙幣S1は、繰出ローラ36bおよび分離ローラ36cに先端が部分的に向かわず、繰出ローラ36bおよび分離ローラ36cで繰り出せなかったり、繰り出せても斜行等の搬送不良を生じてしまう可能性がある。 Further, as shown in the three views of FIG. 8B, the surface H of the 5000-yen banknote, which is a B-type denomination banknote, is directed vertically upward, and the lower side of the banknote is the feeding roller 36b and the separating roller 36c. When the banknotes S1 on the uppermost surface are accumulated in a state of facing the side, the person image J side is higher than the opposite side in the left-right direction of the banknotes. In such a state, the banknote S1 kicked out by the kicking roller 36a cannot or can be fed out by the feeding roller 36b and the separating roller 36c because the tip of the bill S1 does not partially face the feeding roller 36b and the separating roller 36c. However, there is a possibility that transportation defects such as skewing may occur.

また、図8(c)の3面図に示すように、Aタイプ金種である千円券の紙幣を鉛直上側に表面Hを向け、紙幣下側を繰出ローラ36bおよび分離ローラ36c側に向けた状態で集積させると、最上面の紙幣S1が、蹴出ローラ36a側が低く繰出ローラ36bおよび分離ローラ36c側が高くなる。このような状態になると、蹴出ローラ36aが空回りして紙幣S1を良好に蹴り出すことができず、繰出ローラ36bおよび分離ローラ36cで紙幣S1を繰り出せなかったり、繰り出せても斜行等の搬送不良を生じてしまう可能性がある。 Further, as shown in the three views of FIG. 8C, the surface H of the 1000-yen bill of the A type denomination is directed to the vertically upper side, and the lower side of the bill is directed to the feeding roller 36b and the separating roller 36c side. When the bills S1 on the uppermost surface are collected in the state of being piled up, the kicking roller 36a side is low and the feeding roller 36b and the separating roller 36c side are high. In such a state, the kicking roller 36a idles and the banknote S1 cannot be kicked out satisfactorily, and the banknote S1 cannot be fed out by the feeding roller 36b and the separating roller 36c. It may cause defects.

このため、第1実施形態の紙幣処理機11では、制御部16が、入出金部補充モードで行われる補充入金処理中に、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24から、同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたか否かを所定の基準で判定し、該判定の結果に基づいて入出金繰出部24の停止を制御して、紙幣の向きを変えさせることにより、紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(E)において、最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制する傾斜抑制案内制御を行う。 Therefore, in the banknote processing machine 11 of the first embodiment, the control unit 16 makes a new denomination of the same denomination from the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 during the replenishment / deposit process performed in the deposit / withdrawal unit replenishment mode. It is determined based on a predetermined standard whether or not a predetermined number of bills have been continuously paid out in the same direction on the front and back and the top and bottom of the bill, and based on the result of the determination, the stop of the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 is controlled to control the payment of the bill. By changing the orientation, the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (E) perform tilt suppression guide control for suppressing the tilt of the banknote S1 on the uppermost surface.

制御部16は、識別部28が、Aタイプ金種およびBタイプ金種のうちの一方の同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの所定枚数連続する紙幣群(以下、これを便宜上、判定用紙幣と称す。)を検出すると、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24から、Aタイプ金種およびBタイプ金種のうちの一方の同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたと判定する。すると、制御部16は、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24を停止させるとともに、入出金部21の紙幣の向きの確認または変更を促すガイダンスを含む報知を操作表示部15に行わせる。 In the control unit 16, the identification unit 28 determines a predetermined number of consecutive banknotes in the same denomination of one of the A type denomination and the B type denomination, with the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the banknotes in the same direction (hereinafter, this is determined for convenience). When a banknote is detected, the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the banknotes of the same denomination of one of the A type denomination and the B type denomination are the same from the deposit / withdrawal delivery section 24 of the deposit / withdrawal section 21. It is determined that a predetermined number of sheets have been continuously delivered in the orientation. Then, the control unit 16 stops the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21, and causes the operation display unit 15 to perform a notification including guidance for confirming or changing the direction of the banknote of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21.

ここで、制御部16は、入出金部21の直後に設けられた繰出検知センサ25と識別部28で検知された紙幣との対応関係、すなわち識別部28で検知された紙幣が繰出検知センサ25で検知されたどの紙幣であるかを把握している。そして、制御部16は、より具体的には、識別部28が、Aタイプ金種およびBタイプ金種のうちの一方の同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの第1の所定枚数である80枚連続する判定用紙幣を検出すると、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24からAタイプ金種およびBタイプ金種のうちの一方の同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで第1の所定枚数である80枚連続して繰り出されたと判定する。すると、その後、入出金部21の直後に設けられた繰出検知センサ25で、上記判定用紙幣の1枚目から数えて、第2の所定枚数である100枚の紙幣を計数すると、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24を停止させる。勿論、識別部28で、同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの第1の所定枚数である80枚連続する判定用紙幣を検出しなければ、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24を停止させることはなく、紙幣の金種や向きが変わる度に、判定用紙幣を1枚目から計数し直しながら、繰り出しを継続させる。なお、同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの紙幣を第1の所定枚数である80枚連続して検出することで、これらの紙幣群を新券紙幣であると判断するようにしたが、これに限るものではなく、第1の所定枚数は80枚未満であっても、また、80枚超であっても良い。加えて、第2の所定枚数である100枚の紙幣を計数すると、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24を停止させるようにしたが、これに限るものではなく、第2の所定枚数は100枚未満であっても、また、100枚超であっても良く、少なくとも、第1の所定枚数よりも第2の所定枚数の方が多い枚数であれば良い。 Here, the control unit 16 has a correspondence relationship between the payout detection sensor 25 provided immediately after the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 and the banknotes detected by the identification unit 28, that is, the banknotes detected by the identification unit 28 are payout detection sensors 25. We know which banknote was detected in. Then, more specifically, in the control unit 16, the identification unit 28 is a first predetermined number of the same denomination of one of the A type denomination and the B type denomination, and the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the bill are in the same direction. When a certain 80 consecutive judgment banknotes are detected, the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the banknotes of the same denomination of one of the A type denomination and the B type denomination are displayed from the deposit / withdrawal delivery section 24 of the deposit / withdrawal section 21. It is determined that 80 sheets, which is the first predetermined number of sheets, have been continuously delivered in the same direction. Then, when the payout detection sensor 25 provided immediately after the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 counts 100 banknotes, which is the second predetermined number, counting from the first of the determination banknotes, the deposit / withdrawal unit is used. The deposit / withdrawal delivery unit 24 of 21 is stopped. Of course, if the identification unit 28 does not detect 80 consecutive determination bills of the same denomination, which are the first predetermined number of bills in the same direction on the front and back and the top and bottom of the bills, the deposit / withdrawal payout section 24 of the deposit / withdrawal section 21 is used. It is not stopped, and every time the denomination or direction of the bill changes, the judgment bill is recounted from the first bill and the feeding is continued. By continuously detecting 80 banknotes of the same denomination with the same front and back and the same direction on the top and bottom of the banknote, which is the first predetermined number, it is determined that these banknotes are new banknotes. The first predetermined number of sheets is not limited to this, and may be less than 80 sheets or more than 80 sheets. In addition, when the second predetermined number of 100 banknotes is counted, the deposit / withdrawal delivery section 24 of the deposit / withdrawal section 21 is stopped, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the second predetermined number is 100. The number of sheets may be less than 100, or may be more than 100, and at least the number of the second predetermined number may be larger than that of the first predetermined number.

上記のように繰出検知センサ25で第2の所定枚数である100枚の紙幣を計数する間、および計数した上での入出金繰出部24の停止後において、それまでに入出金部21から繰り出された紙幣のうち、識別部28で受け入れ可能と判定した紙幣を、図3に太実線で示すように紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納する一方、識別部28で受け入れ不可と判定した紙幣を、図3に太破線で示すように入金リジェクト部26に放出する。識別部28で受け入れ不可と判定した紙幣については、第2の所定枚数である100枚の紙幣に含めずに除外し、その分の紙幣だけを入出金部21から入出金繰出部24で追加で繰り出させる。これにより、80枚の判定用紙幣を含むこの判定用紙幣の1枚目から数えて100枚目までの受け入れ可能な紙幣を紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納し、それ以降の紙幣を入出金部21に残すことになる。 As described above, while the second predetermined number of 100 banknotes are counted by the payout detection sensor 25, and after the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 is stopped after counting, the banknotes are paid out from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 by then. Among the banknotes, the banknotes determined to be acceptable by the identification unit 28 are stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) as shown by the thick solid line in FIG. 3, while the banknotes determined to be unacceptable by the identification unit 28 are stored. , As shown by the thick broken line in FIG. 3, it is discharged to the deposit rejecting unit 26. Banknotes that are determined to be unacceptable by the identification unit 28 are excluded without being included in the second predetermined number of 100 banknotes, and only that amount of banknotes is additionally added from the deposit / withdrawal section 21 to the deposit / withdrawal delivery section 24. Let it pay out. As a result, the acceptable banknotes from the first to the 100th of the judgment banknotes including 80 judgment banknotes are stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E), and the subsequent banknotes are deposited and withdrawn. It will be left in the part 21.

そして、制御部16は、上記80枚の判定用紙幣を含むこの判定用紙幣の1枚目から数えて100枚目までの受け入れ可能な紙幣を識別部28で確認すると、その時点では、入出金繰出部24が停止させられている入出金繰出部24について、シャッタ20を開きつつ載置板22を下げて、入出金部21の最上位置の紙幣を、蹴出ローラ24aから離し、紙幣を再セットしやすい状態とする。それとともに、制御部16は、官封券の帯封を解いた新券の補充と判断したので入出金部21の紙幣の向きの確認または変更を促すガイダンスを含む報知を操作表示部15に行わせる。具体的には、操作表示部15に、上記80枚の判定用紙幣が入出金部21にあったときの状態の表裏および紙幣上下がわかるイラスト表示を表示させ、このイラスト表示に対して、入出金部21にある最上位置の紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの場合には、紙幣の向きの変更を促すガイダンスを含む報知を操作表示部15に行わせる。併せて警報音を発しても良い。 Then, when the control unit 16 confirms with the identification unit 28 the acceptable banknotes from the first to the 100th of the determination banknotes including the 80 determination banknotes, the deposit / withdrawal at that time. With respect to the deposit / withdrawal payout portion 24 in which the payout portion 24 is stopped, the mounting plate 22 is lowered while opening the shutter 20, the banknote at the uppermost position of the deposit / withdrawal section 21 is separated from the kicking roller 24a, and the banknote is regenerated. Make it easy to set. At the same time, the control unit 16 determines that the new ticket that has been unstrapped from the government-sealed ticket is to be replenished. .. Specifically, the operation display unit 15 is displayed with an illustration display that shows the front and back of the state when the above 80 judgment bills are on the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 and the top and bottom of the bills, and deposit / withdrawal is performed with respect to this illustration display. When the banknote at the highest position on the gold unit 21 has the same orientation on the front and back and the top and bottom of the banknote, the operation display unit 15 is made to perform a notification including guidance for urging the direction of the banknote to be changed. At the same time, an alarm sound may be emitted.

その際に、判定用紙幣がAタイプ金種の紙幣である場合には、操作表示部15に、例えば、紙幣左右の向きはそのままで表裏を反転させるように、変更後の表裏および紙幣上下がわかるイラスト表示を表示させて案内する。紙幣左右の向きはそのままで表裏を反転させると紙幣上下が反転する。あるいは、表裏の向きはそのままで紙幣上下を反転させるように、変更後の表裏および紙幣上下がわかるイラスト表示を表示させて案内する。表裏の向きはそのままで紙幣上下を反転させても紙幣上下が反転する。 At that time, when the judgment bill is an A type denomination bill, the changed front and back and the top and bottom of the bill are displayed on the operation display unit 15, for example, so that the front and back are reversed while keeping the left and right orientation of the bill. We will guide you by displaying an easy-to-understand illustration display. If you flip the front and back while keeping the left and right orientation of the bill, the top and bottom of the bill will be flipped. Alternatively, an illustration display showing the changed front and back and the top and bottom of the bill is displayed so that the front and back orientation remains the same and the bill is turned upside down. Even if the front and back directions are the same and the banknotes are turned upside down, the banknotes are turned upside down.

具体的に、判定用紙幣が、例えば、操作者から見て、図2(a)に示すように、紙幣Sの表面Hを鉛直方向上側にし、紙幣上を奥側として入出金部21に装填されたものと判断したときは、残りの紙幣が、図2(b)に示すように、操作者から見て、紙幣Sの裏面Rを鉛直方向上側にし、紙幣下を奥側とするように、長手方向に沿う軸を中心に半回転させて、入出金部21に装填するよう、操作表示部15に、その具体例の図を表示させる。あるいは、残りの紙幣が、図2(c)に示すように、操作者から見て、紙幣Sの表面Hを鉛直方向上側にし、紙幣下を奥側とするように、表裏は反転させずに半回転させて、入出金部21に装填するよう、操作表示部15に、その具体例の図を表示させる。 Specifically, the determination banknote is loaded into the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 with the surface H of the banknote S on the upper side in the vertical direction and the banknote on the back side, as shown in FIG. 2A, for example, when viewed from the operator. When it is determined that the banknotes have been printed, the remaining banknotes have the back surface R of the banknote S on the upper side in the vertical direction and the bottom side of the banknote on the back side when viewed from the operator, as shown in FIG. 2 (b). The operation display unit 15 displays a diagram of a specific example so that the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 is loaded with the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 rotated half a turn around the axis along the longitudinal direction. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 2C, the front and back sides of the remaining banknotes are not inverted so that the surface H of the banknote S is on the upper side in the vertical direction and the bottom side of the banknote is on the back side when viewed from the operator. The operation display unit 15 is made to display a diagram of a specific example so that the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 is loaded by rotating it half a turn.

また、判定用紙幣がBタイプ金種の紙幣である場合には、操作表示部15に、例えば、表裏の向きはそのままで紙幣上下を反転させるように、変更後の表裏および紙幣上下がわかるイラスト表示を表示させて案内する。表裏の向きはそのままで紙幣上下を反転させると紙幣左右が反転する。あるいは、紙幣上下方向の向きはそのままで表裏の向きを反転させるように、変更後の表裏および紙幣上下がわかるイラスト表示を表示させて案内する。紙幣上下をそのままで表裏の向きを反転させても紙幣左右が反転する。 Further, when the judgment bill is a B-type denomination bill, an illustration showing the changed front and back and the top and bottom of the bill on the operation display unit 15, for example, so that the front and back orientation remains the same and the bill is turned upside down. Display the display to guide you. If you flip the bill upside down while keeping the front and back orientation, the bill left and right will be flipped. Alternatively, an illustration display showing the changed front and back and the top and bottom of the bill is displayed so that the front and back directions are reversed while keeping the vertical orientation of the bill. Even if the front and back directions are reversed while the top and bottom of the bill are left unchanged, the left and right sides of the bill are reversed.

具体的に、判定用紙幣が、例えば、操作者から見て、図2(a)に示すように、紙幣Sの表面Hを鉛直方向上側にし、紙幣上を奥側として入出金部21に装填されたものと判断したときは、残りの紙幣が、図2(c)に示すように、操作者から見て、紙幣の表面Hを鉛直方向上側にしたまま、紙幣下を奥側にするように水平面内で半回転させて、入出金部21に装填するよう、操作表示部15に、その具体例の図を表示させる。あるいは、残りの紙幣が、図2(d)に示すように、紙幣の裏面Rを鉛直方向上側にし、紙幣上を奥側にするように短手方向に沿う軸を中心に半回転させて、入出金部21に装填するよう、操作表示部15に、その具体例の図を表示させる。 Specifically, the determination banknote is loaded into the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 with the surface H of the banknote S on the upper side in the vertical direction and the banknote on the back side, as shown in FIG. 2A, for example, when viewed from the operator. When it is determined that the banknotes have been printed, the remaining banknotes should be placed with the bottom of the banknote on the back side while the surface H of the banknote is on the upper side in the vertical direction when viewed from the operator, as shown in FIG. 2 (c). The operation display unit 15 displays a diagram of a specific example so that the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 is loaded with the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 by making a half turn in the horizontal plane. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 2D, the remaining banknotes are rotated half a turn around the axis along the lateral direction so that the back surface R of the banknote is on the upper side in the vertical direction and the top of the banknote is on the back side. The operation display unit 15 is made to display a diagram of a specific example so that the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 is loaded.

その後、補充入金処理の再スタート操作が入力されると、制御部16は、シャッタ20を閉じながら載置板22を上昇させて、入出金部補充モードでの補充入金処理を再開する。この再開後に、制御部16は、識別部28の検出結果から、最初の所定の確認枚数(3枚等の複数枚)の紙幣が、判定用紙幣と同じ金種の紙幣である場合、判定用紙幣に対して、紙幣収納カセット35(E)における最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を解消する向きであるか否かを判定し、判定用紙幣に対して、紙幣収納カセット35(E)における最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を解消する向きである場合、これらの確認枚数の紙幣を、次の第1の所定枚数である80枚連続する判定用紙幣に含めて、上記と同様の制御を行う。 After that, when the restart operation of the replenishment deposit processing is input, the control unit 16 raises the mounting plate 22 while closing the shutter 20 to restart the replenishment deposit processing in the deposit / withdrawal unit replenishment mode. After this restart, the control unit 16 determines from the detection result of the identification unit 28 that the first predetermined number of confirmed numbers (multiple sheets such as three) is the same denomination as the determination banknote. It is determined whether or not the direction is such that the inclination of the banknote S1 on the uppermost surface of the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) is eliminated with respect to the banknote, and the uppermost surface of the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) is determined with respect to the determination banknote. When the direction is such that the inclination of the banknote S1 is eliminated, the confirmed number of banknotes is included in the next first predetermined number of 80 consecutive determination banknotes, and the same control as described above is performed.

他方、再開後、所定の確認枚数の紙幣が、判定用紙幣に対して、紙幣収納カセット35(E)における最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を解消する向きでない場合、制御部16は、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24を停止させる。入出金繰出部24を停止後も、入出金部21から繰り出された紙幣のうち、識別部28で受け入れ可能と判定した紙幣を紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納する一方、識別部28で受け入れ不可と判定した紙幣を入金リジェクト部26に放出する。そして、制御部16は、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24を停止させた後、入出金部21から既に繰り出されている紙幣の搬送と並行して、シャッタ20を開きつつ載置板22を下げて、入出金部21の最上位置の紙幣を、蹴出ローラ24aから離し、再セットしやすい状態とするとともに、上記と同様に、入出金部21の紙幣の向きの確認または変更を促すガイダンスを含む報知を操作表示部15に行わせる。 On the other hand, if the predetermined number of confirmed banknotes is not in the direction to eliminate the inclination of the banknote S1 on the uppermost surface of the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) with respect to the determination banknote after restarting, the control unit 16 is the deposit / withdrawal unit. The deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 of 21 is stopped. Even after the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 is stopped, among the banknotes drawn out from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21, the banknotes determined to be acceptable by the identification unit 28 are stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E), while being accepted by the identification unit 28. The banknote determined to be unacceptable is discharged to the deposit reject unit 26. Then, the control unit 16 stops the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21, and then opens the shutter 20 in parallel with the transfer of the banknotes already paid out from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 while opening the mounting plate 22. Is lowered to separate the banknote at the highest position of the deposit / withdrawal section 21 from the kicking roller 24a so that it can be easily reset, and in the same manner as above, the direction of the banknote of the deposit / withdrawal section 21 is confirmed or changed. The operation display unit 15 is made to perform the notification including the guidance.

以上を適宜繰り返すことで、入出金部21の紙幣がなくなったことが紙幣検知センサ19で検知され、入出金部21から繰り出されたすべての紙幣が、紙幣収納カセット35(E)および入金リジェクト部26のいずれかに搬送されると、制御部16は、識別部28で受け入れ可能と判定して紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留した紙幣の金種別の枚数および総額等を操作表示部15に表示させて、操作表示部15への承認操作およびキャンセル操作の入力を待機する。よって、例えば、同一金種の複数束の官封券の帯封を解いた新券が、表裏および紙幣上下を同じ向きにして纏めて入出金部21に投入されたとしても、これらの紙幣は、100枚毎に繰り出しが停止されて作業者により向きが傾斜を抑制するように変えられて、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留されることになる。 By repeating the above as appropriate, the banknote detection sensor 19 detects that the banknotes in the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 have run out, and all the banknotes drawn out from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 are the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) and the deposit reject unit. When transported to any of the 26, the control unit 16 determines that the identification unit 28 is acceptable, and displays the number and total amount of banknotes temporarily stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) by the operation display unit 15. Is displayed, and the input of the approval operation and the cancel operation to the operation display unit 15 is awaited. Therefore, for example, even if a new ticket with a plurality of bundles of the same denomination unsealed is put into the deposit / withdrawal section 21 with the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the banknotes facing the same direction, these banknotes will be inserted. The feeding is stopped every 100 sheets, the orientation is changed by the operator so as to suppress the inclination, and the banknotes are temporarily stored in the bill storage cassette 35 (E).

なお、官封券の帯封を解いた新券での補充の場合、入金リジェクト部26にリジェクトされる紙幣がなければ、100枚単位での繰り出し後の一時停止時に、そのまま、入出金部21の紙幣がなくなる場合がある。100枚単位での繰り出し後の一時停止時に、入出金部21の紙幣がなくなったことが紙幣検知センサ19で検知されるとそのまま入出金部補充モードでの補充入金処理を終了する。または、官封券の帯封を解いた新券であっても、二重繰り出し現象によるリジェクトが発生することがあり、その場合には、入金リジェクト部26のリジェクト紙幣の入出金部21への追加入金(補充)処理を行わせることによって、入出金部21に投入されたすべての紙幣を紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留する。 In the case of replenishment with a new ticket that has been unstrapped, if there are no banknotes to be rejected by the deposit / withdrawal unit 26, the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 will be used as it is when the banknotes are paused after being paid out in units of 100. Banknotes may run out. When the banknote detection sensor 19 detects that the banknotes in the deposit / withdrawal section 21 have run out at the time of pausing after paying out in units of 100 sheets, the replenishment / deposit process in the deposit / withdrawal section replenishment mode is terminated as it is. Alternatively, even if the new ticket is unwrapped, the reject due to the double payout phenomenon may occur. In that case, the reject banknote of the deposit reject section 26 is added to the deposit / withdrawal section 21. By performing the deposit (replenishment) process, all the bills inserted into the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 are temporarily stored in the bill storage cassette 35 (E).

ここで、第1実施形態において、第1の所定枚数である80枚の判定用紙幣を識別部28で検出した後、入出金部21の直後に設けられた繰出検知センサ25で、80枚の判定用紙幣の1枚目から数えて第2の所定枚数である100枚の紙幣を計数するまでの間に、80枚の判定用紙幣に対して、同一金種で、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納される際に最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制するように向きが変えられているものを識別部28で検出した場合、制御部16は、入出金繰出部24を停止させることなく、この紙幣を次の80枚の判定用紙幣の1枚目として制御をやり直す。 Here, in the first embodiment, after the identification unit 28 detects 80 determination bills, which is the first predetermined number, the payout detection sensor 25 provided immediately after the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 detects 80 banknotes. Between the first and the second predetermined number of 100 banknotes counted from the first judgment banknote, the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) of the same denomination for 80 judgment banknotes. ), When the identification unit 28 detects that the direction of the banknote S1 on the uppermost surface is changed so as to suppress the inclination of the banknote S1, the control unit 16 does not stop the deposit / withdrawal delivery unit 24. , This banknote is used as the first of the next 80 determination banknotes, and the control is redone.

なお、第1実施形態において、所定枚数である100枚の判定用紙幣を識別部28で検出した後、識別部28で101枚目の紙幣を検出するまで、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24を停止させずに紙幣の繰り出しを継続させ、この101枚目の紙幣が、判定用紙幣に対し、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納される際に最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制するように向きが変えられていない場合に、入出金繰出部24を停止させる一方、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納される際に最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制するように向きが変えられている場合には、入出金繰出部24を停止させることなく、この101枚目の紙幣を、次の100枚の判定用紙幣の1枚目として制御をやり直すようにしても良い。その際に、入出金繰出部24を停止させる場合、それまでの間に繰り出された紙幣を紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納するため、101枚以上の枚数の紙幣が紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納されることになるが、最上面の紙幣S1を傾斜させるほどの枚数にはならない。 In the first embodiment, after the identification unit 28 detects 100 determination bills, which is a predetermined number, the deposit / withdrawal unit of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 until the identification unit 28 detects the 101st banknote. The feeding of banknotes is continued without stopping 24, and when the 101st banknote is stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) with respect to the determination banknote, the inclination of the banknote S1 on the uppermost surface is suppressed. When the orientation is not changed as described above, the deposit / withdrawal payout portion 24 is stopped, while the orientation is changed so as to suppress the inclination of the banknote S1 on the uppermost surface when being stored in the bill storage cassette 35 (E). If this is the case, the 101st banknote may be used as the first of the next 100 determination banknotes and the control may be repeated without stopping the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24. At that time, when the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 is stopped, the banknotes that have been paid out up to that point are stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E), so that 101 or more banknotes are stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E). ), But the number of bills S1 on the top surface is not large enough to tilt.

[補充収納処理]
補充収納処理は、図4に太線で示す通常収納処理ルートと同様の補充収納処理ルートで紙幣を移動させることになる。入出金部補充モードでの補充入金処理後、操作表示部15への承認操作が入力されると、上記通常収納処理と同様に、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留した紙幣を、確定して、奥から1番目〜4番目に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)の対応するものに収納する。なお、補充収納処理においても、識別部28で重送等と識別した紙幣については、出金リジェクト部27に収納する。一金種の補充のときは、オーバーフロー紙幣が発生しなければ、紙幣収納カセット35(E)から紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(C)の一つへの紙幣の転送となり、二金種以上の補充のときは、オーバーフロー紙幣が発生しなければ、紙幣収納カセット35(E)から紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(C)の二つ以上への紙幣の分配となる。
[Replenishment storage process]
In the replenishment storage process, the banknotes are moved by the same replenishment storage process route as the normal storage process route shown by the thick line in FIG. After the replenishment deposit process in the deposit / withdrawal unit replenishment mode, when an approval operation is input to the operation display unit 15, the banknotes temporarily stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) are confirmed in the same manner as in the above normal storage process. Then, the banknotes are stored in the corresponding items of the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D) arranged first to fourth from the back. Even in the replenishment storage process, the banknotes identified as double-feeding by the identification unit 28 are stored in the withdrawal reject unit 27. When replenishing one denomination, if overflow bills do not occur, the bills will be transferred from the bill storage cassette 35 (E) to one of the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (C), and the two denominations will be replenished. At the time of the above replenishment, if no overflow bills are generated, the bills are distributed from the bill storage cassette 35 (E) to two or more of the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (C).

紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)では、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留した紙幣を、紙幣左右方向の向きはそのままで、鉛直方向上側が表面Hであった紙幣を鉛直方向上側が裏面Rとなる向きで収納し、鉛直方向上側が裏面Rであった紙幣を鉛直方向上側が表面Hとなる向きで収納することになる。よって、例えば、同一金種の複数束の官封券の帯封を解いた新券が、表裏および紙幣上下を同じ向きにして纏めて入出金部21に投入されたとしても、これらの紙幣は、紙幣収納カセット35(E)と同様、最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制するように適宜向きが変えられて紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)の対応するものに収納されることになる。 In the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D), the bills temporarily stored in the bill storage cassette 35 (E) are kept in the same direction in the left-right direction, and the bills whose upper side in the vertical direction is the surface H are in the vertical direction. The bills whose upper side is the back surface R and whose upper side is the back surface R in the vertical direction are stored in the direction in which the upper side in the vertical direction is the front surface H. Therefore, for example, even if new tickets that have been unwrapped from a plurality of bundles of officially sealed tickets of the same denomination are put together in the deposit / withdrawal section 21 with the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the banknotes facing the same direction, these banknotes will still be inserted. Similar to the bill storage cassette 35 (E), the orientation is appropriately changed so as to suppress the inclination of the bill S1 on the uppermost surface, and the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D) are stored in the corresponding ones. Become.

[補充返却処理]
補充返却処理は、図5に太線で示す通常返却処理ルートと一部異なる図9に太線で示す補充返却処理ルートで紙幣を移動させることになる。入出金部補充モードでの補充入金処理後、操作表示部15へのキャンセル操作が入力されると、上記通常返却処理と同様に、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留した紙幣を、確定せず、入出金部21に出金する。その際に、通常返却処理とは異なり、紙幣収納カセット35(E)からの紙幣を、識別部28で識別し、その結果に基づいて、表裏反転が必要でないものは紙幣向き変更部44の並列区間部41Uを含む搬送路41Aで入出金部21に、表裏反転が必要なものは紙幣向き変更部44の搬送路41Sを介して表裏反転部43で表裏反転させた後、搬送路41Aで入出金部21に、それぞれ搬送する。その結果、入出金部21に繰り出された紙幣は、表裏が一定の向きに取り揃えられる。すなわち、紙幣収納カセット35(E)からの紙幣を、紙幣向き変更部44が表裏を取りそろえて入出金部21に出金する。
[Replenishment return processing]
In the replenishment return processing, the banknotes are moved by the replenishment return processing route shown by the thick line in FIG. 9, which is partially different from the normal return processing route shown by the thick line in FIG. When a cancel operation is input to the operation display unit 15 after the replenishment deposit process in the deposit / withdrawal unit replenishment mode, the banknotes temporarily stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) are confirmed in the same manner as in the normal return process. Instead, withdraw money to the deposit / withdrawal section 21. At that time, unlike the normal return processing, the bills from the bill storage cassette 35 (E) are identified by the identification unit 28, and based on the result, those that do not require front-back reversal are arranged in parallel with the bill orientation changing unit 44. In the transport path 41A including the section section 41U, if the deposit / withdrawal section 21 needs to be flipped, the banknote orientation changing section 44 passes through the transport path 41S, and the front / back flip section 43 flips the front / back, and then the transfer path 41A enters / exits. Each is conveyed to the gold part 21. As a result, the front and back sides of the banknotes paid out to the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 are arranged in a certain direction. That is, the banknotes from the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) are withdrawn to the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 by the banknote orientation changing unit 44 aligning the front and back sides.

なお、以上では、入出金部補充モードが選択された場合に、通常入金処理および通常収納処理と同じように、入出金部21に投入された補充紙幣をプールカセットである紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一旦収納してから、金種カセットである紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(C)およびオーバーフローカセットである紙幣収納カセット35(D)に収納し直す場合を説明した。しかし、これに限るのではなく、入出金部補充モードに限って、入出金部21からの紙幣を、識別部28の識別結果に応じて上記のように傾斜抑制案内制御を行いつつ、プールカセットである紙幣収納カセット35(E)ではなく、直接、金種カセットである紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(C)およびオーバーフローカセットである紙幣収納カセット35(D)に収納するようにしても良い。 In the above, when the deposit / withdrawal unit replenishment mode is selected, the replenishment banknotes inserted into the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 are stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E), which is a pool cassette, in the same manner as in the normal deposit processing and the normal storage processing. ), And then re-stored in the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (C), which are denomination cassettes, and the bill storage cassette 35 (D), which is an overflow cassette. However, the pool cassette is not limited to this, and only in the deposit / withdrawal unit replenishment mode, the banknotes from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 are subjected to tilt suppression guidance control as described above according to the identification result of the identification unit 28. Even if the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (C), which are denomination cassettes, and the banknote storage cassettes 35 (D), which are overflow cassettes, are directly stored instead of the banknote storage cassette 35 (E). good.

ここで、紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)には、紙幣収納カセット35(E)への収納時に上記した傾斜抑制案内制御が行われることで、官封券の帯封を解いた新券が100枚毎に向きが交互に変えられて収納されることがあるが、バラ紙幣出金処理において、識別部28の識別結果に基づいて、表裏反転が必要でないものは紙幣向き変更部44の並列区間部41Uを含む搬送路41Aで入出金部21に、表裏反転が必要なものは紙幣向き変更部44の搬送路41Sを介して表裏反転部43で表裏反転させた後、搬送路41Aで入出金部21に、それぞれ搬送するため、入出金部21に繰り出された紙幣は、表裏が一定の向きに取り揃えられる。 Here, in the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D), the above-mentioned tilt suppression guidance control is performed when the bill storage cassettes 35 (D) are stored in the bill storage cassette 35 (E), so that the straps of the official sealed tickets are released. The orientation of the bills may be changed alternately every 100, and the bills may be stored. In the transport path 41A including the parallel section portion 41U of the above, if the deposit / withdrawal section 21 needs to be flipped, the transport path 41A is flipped by the front / back flip section 43 via the transport path 41S of the bill orientation changing section 44. Since the banknotes are transported to the deposit / withdrawal section 21 in the above manner, the front and back sides of the banknotes paid out to the deposit / withdrawal section 21 are arranged in a certain direction.

以上に述べた第1実施形態の紙幣処理機11によれば、制御部16は、入出金繰出部24から同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたか否かを判定し、該判定の結果に基づいて入出金繰出部24の停止を制御するため、入出金繰出部24を停止させることで入出金部21の残りの紙幣の向きの変更が可能となり、紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(E)での繰り出し不良の発生を抑制することが可能となる。 According to the banknote processing machine 11 of the first embodiment described above, the control unit 16 continuously pays out a predetermined number of new banknotes of the same denomination from the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 with the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the banknotes in the same direction. In order to determine whether or not the banknotes have been sent and to control the stop of the deposit / withdrawal payout section 24 based on the result of the determination, the direction of the remaining banknotes of the deposit / withdrawal section 21 can be changed by stopping the deposit / withdrawal payout section 24. This makes it possible to suppress the occurrence of feeding defects in the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (E).

具体的に、制御部16は、識別部28が、同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの所定枚数連続する判定用紙幣を検出すると、官封券の帯封を解いた新券の補充であって、入出金繰出部24から同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたと判定して、入出金繰出部24を停止させるとともに、入出金部21の紙幣の向きの確認または変更を促すガイダンスを含む報知を操作表示部15に行わせる。しかも、所定枚数毎に、紙幣の入出金部21からの繰り出しを停止させて、入出金部21に残った新券の向きを金種に適した向きとなるように指示する。よって、複雑な制御を要することなく、官封券の帯封を解いた新券を、所定枚数毎に、適切な向きに変更して紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一旦収納することができ、また、官封券の帯封を解いた新券を、所定枚数毎に、適切な向きに変更して紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)に収納することができる。よって、紙幣収納カセット35(E)および紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)からの繰り出し不良の発生を抑制することが可能となり、正常な繰り出しを行うことができる。 Specifically, when the identification unit 28 detects a predetermined number of consecutive determination bills of the same denomination and in the same direction on the front and back and the top and bottom of the bills, the control unit 16 replenishes the new bills that have been unstrapped. Therefore, it is determined that a predetermined number of new banknotes of the same denomination have been continuously delivered from the deposit / withdrawal delivery section 24 with the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the banknotes facing the same direction, and the deposit / withdrawal delivery section 24 is stopped and the deposit / withdrawal section is stopped. The operation display unit 15 is made to perform a notification including guidance for confirming or changing the orientation of the bills of 21. Moreover, the payout of banknotes from the deposit / withdrawal section 21 is stopped for each predetermined number of sheets, and the direction of the new ticket remaining in the deposit / withdrawal section 21 is instructed to be the direction suitable for the denomination. Therefore, the new ticket that has been unstrapped from the government-sealed ticket can be changed to an appropriate orientation for each predetermined number and temporarily stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) without requiring complicated control. , The new ticket that has been unwrapped from the government-sealed ticket can be stored in the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D) by changing the orientation to an appropriate position for each predetermined number of sheets. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of feeding defects from the bill storage cassettes 35 (E) and the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D), and normal feeding can be performed.

また、制御部16は、識別部28が、同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの第1の所定枚数である80枚連続する判定用紙幣を検出すると、入出金繰出部24から同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数である80枚連続して繰り出されたと判定し、その後、繰出検知センサ25が、これら80枚の判定用紙幣を含んで第2の所定枚数である100枚の紙幣を計数すると、入出金繰出部24を停止させる。これにより、入出金繰出部24の繰り出し停止までの繰り出し枚数を、100枚とすることができ、より正確に制御できる。 Further, when the identification unit 28 detects 80 consecutive determination bills of the same denomination and the same direction on the front and back and the top and bottom of the bills, which is the first predetermined number, the control unit 16 receives the same money from the deposit / withdrawal delivery unit 24. It is determined that 80 new banknotes of the kind have been continuously paid out in the same direction on the front and back and the top and bottom of the banknote, which is a predetermined number, and then the payout detection sensor 25 includes the 80 determination banknotes and the second When 100 bills, which is a predetermined number of bills, are counted, the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 is stopped. As a result, the number of payouts until the payout stop of the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 can be set to 100, and more accurate control can be performed.

また、補充入金処理において、入出金部21で人手により向きが変えられて、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納された紙幣を、補充返却処理において、紙幣向き変更部44で表裏の向きを揃えて入出金部21に繰り出すことができる。加えて、入出金部21で人手により向きが変えられて、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納後、紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(C)に収納された紙幣を、バラ紙幣出金処理において、紙幣向き変更部44で表裏の向きを揃えて入出金部21に繰り出すことができる。 Further, in the replenishment / payment process, the direction of the banknotes that have been manually changed by the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 and stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) is aligned by the banknote direction change unit 44 in the replenishment / return process. Can be paid out to the deposit / withdrawal section 21. In addition, the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 manually changes the direction, stores the banknotes in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E), and then withdraws the banknotes stored in the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (C) in bulk. In the processing, the bill orientation changing unit 44 can align the front and back directions and pay out to the deposit / withdrawal unit 21.

<第2実施形態>
本発明に係る第2実施形態の紙幣処理機を、第1実施形態との相違部分を中心に説明する。
<Second Embodiment>
The banknote processing machine of the second embodiment according to the present invention will be described focusing on the differences from the first embodiment.

第2実施形態では、補充入金処理として、上記した入出金部補充モードでの補充入金処理と、これとは別の、操作者に新券補充を選択設定させる入出金部新券補充モードでの補充入金処理とが選択可能となっている。入出金部新券補充モードでは、上記のように操作者が新券を補充紙幣として補充入金処理を行うことを選択設定することから、紙幣処理機11は、入出金部21に装填された補充用の紙幣がすべて官封券の帯封を解いた新券であるものとみなして動作する。 In the second embodiment, as the replenishment deposit process, the replenishment deposit process in the deposit / withdrawal section replenishment mode described above and another deposit / withdrawal section new ticket replenishment mode in which the operator is made to select and set the new ticket replenishment. Replenishment deposit processing can be selected. In the deposit / withdrawal section new ticket replenishment mode, since the operator selects and sets the replenishment deposit process using the new ticket as the replenishment bill as described above, the bill processing machine 11 replenishes the deposit / withdrawal unit 21. It operates assuming that all the banknotes for the purpose are new tickets that have been unsealed.

[補充入金処理]
操作表示部15(モード選択設定手段)で、モードの選択設定が行われ、入出金部新券補充モードが選択された状態となって金種が指定されると、補充用として入出金部21に投入された紙幣に対し、通常入金処理と一部異なる補充入金処理と、通常収納処理と同様の補充収納処理または通常返却処理と一部異なる補充返却処理とを行って、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留後、紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)に補充し、または入出金部21に返却することになる。
[Replenishment deposit processing]
When the mode is selected and set on the operation display unit 15 (mode selection setting means) and the new ticket replenishment mode is selected and the denomination is specified, the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 is used for replenishment. A bill storage cassette 35 ( After temporarily storing in E), the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D) will be replenished or returned to the deposit / withdrawal section 21.

入出金部新券補充モードでの補充入金処理においては、制御部16が、補充入金処理中に、繰出検知センサ25の検知結果に基づいて、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24から所定枚数紙幣が繰り出されると、同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたと判定して、入出金繰出部24の停止を制御して、紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(E)において最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制する傾斜抑制案内制御を行う点が、通常入金処理と相違する。 Deposit / Withdrawal Department In the replenishment deposit processing in the new ticket replenishment mode, the control unit 16 receives a predetermined number of sheets from the deposit / withdrawal withdrawal unit 24 of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 based on the detection result of the withdrawal detection sensor 25 during the replenishment / deposit processing. When the banknotes are paid out, it is determined that a predetermined number of new banknotes of the same denomination have been continuously paid out in the same direction on the front and back and the top and bottom of the banknotes, and the stop of the deposit / withdrawal feeding section 24 is controlled to control the banknote storage cassette 35. (A) to 35 (E) are different from the normal deposit processing in that the inclination suppression guide control for suppressing the inclination of the banknote S1 on the uppermost surface is performed.

制御部16は、操作表示部15で指定された金種がAタイプ金種およびBタイプ金種のうちの一方で、繰出検知センサ25の検知結果から所定枚数連続する判定用紙幣を検出すると、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24から、Aタイプ金種およびBタイプ金種のうちの一方の同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたと判定する。すると、制御部16は、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24を停止させるとともに、入出金部21の紙幣の向きの確認または変更を促すガイダンスを含む報知を操作表示部15に行わせる。 When the control unit 16 detects a predetermined number of consecutive determination bills from the detection result of the payout detection sensor 25 while the denomination designated by the operation display unit 15 is one of the A type denomination and the B type denomination, It is said that a predetermined number of new bills of the same denomination, one of the A type denomination and the B type denomination, are continuously withdrawn from the deposit / withdrawal delivery unit 24 of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 with the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the bill facing the same direction. judge. Then, the control unit 16 stops the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21, and causes the operation display unit 15 to perform a notification including guidance for confirming or changing the direction of the banknote of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21.

制御部16は、より具体的には、入出金部新券補充モードでの補充入金処理開始後、繰出検知センサ25が所定枚数である100枚連続する判定用紙幣を検出すると、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24からAタイプ金種およびBタイプ金種のうちの指定された一方の同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数である100枚連続して繰り出されたと判定し、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24を停止させる。 More specifically, when the payout detection sensor 25 detects 100 consecutive determination bills, which is a predetermined number, after the start of the replenishment deposit process in the deposit / withdrawal unit new ticket replenishment mode, the control unit 16 makes a deposit / withdrawal unit 21. From the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24, 100 new banknotes of the same designated denomination of A type denomination and B type denomination are continuously withdrawn in the same direction on the front and back and the top and bottom of the banknote. It is determined that the payment has been made, and the deposit / withdrawal delivery unit 24 of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 is stopped.

なお、上記のように繰出検知センサ25で所定枚数である100枚の判定用紙幣を計数する間および入出金繰出部24の停止後において、それまでに入出金部21から繰り出された紙幣のうち、識別部28で受け入れ可能と判定した紙幣を、図3に太実線で示すように紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納する一方、識別部28で受け入れ不可と判定した紙幣を、図3に太破線で示すように入金リジェクト部26に放出する。識別部28で受け入れ不可と判定した紙幣については、所定枚数である100枚の判定用紙幣に含めずに除外し、その分の紙幣だけを入出金部21から入出金繰出部24で追加で繰り出させる。これにより、所定枚数である100枚の判定用紙幣を紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納し、それ以降の紙幣を入出金部21に残すことになる。 Of the banknotes that have been paid out from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 during the counting of 100 determination bills, which is a predetermined number, by the payout detection sensor 25 and after the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 is stopped as described above. The banknotes determined to be acceptable by the identification unit 28 are stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) as shown by the thick solid line in FIG. 3, while the banknotes determined to be unacceptable by the identification unit 28 are shown in FIG. As shown by the broken line, it is discharged to the deposit rejecting unit 26. The banknotes determined to be unacceptable by the identification unit 28 are excluded without being included in the predetermined number of 100 determination banknotes, and only the banknotes corresponding to the banknotes are additionally paid out from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 by the deposit / withdrawal delivery unit 24. Let me. As a result, 100 determination bills, which is a predetermined number, are stored in the bill storage cassette 35 (E), and the subsequent bills are left in the deposit / withdrawal section 21.

Aタイプ金種およびBタイプ金種のうちの指定された一方の同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの所定枚数である100枚の判定用紙幣を識別部28で識別すると、制御部16は、入出金部21から既に繰り出されている紙幣の搬送と並行して、シャッタ20を開きつつ載置板22を下げて、入出金部21の最上位置の紙幣を、蹴出ローラ24aから離し、再セットしやすい状態とするとともに、官封券の帯封を解いた新券の補充と判断したので入出金部21の紙幣の向きの確認または変更を促す第1実施形態と同様の報知を操作表示部15に行わせる。 When the identification unit 28 identifies 100 determination bills of the same designated denomination of the A type denomination and the B type denomination and the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the bills are in the same direction, the control unit 16 In parallel with the transfer of the banknotes already delivered from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21, lowers the mounting plate 22 while opening the shutter 20 to separate the banknote at the highest position of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 from the kicking roller 24a. , Make it easy to reset, and since it is judged that the new ticket is replenished after unwrapping the officially sealed ticket, the same notification as in the first embodiment for confirming or changing the direction of the banknote of the deposit / withdrawal section 21 is operated. Let the display unit 15 do this.

その後、入出金部新券補充モードでの補充入金処理の再スタート操作が入力されると、シャッタ20を閉じながら載置板22を上昇させて、入出金部新券補充モードでの補充入金処理を再開する。この再開後に、制御部16は、識別部28の検出結果から、再開後、所定の確認枚数(複数枚)の紙幣が、判定用紙幣と同金種の紙幣である場合、判定用紙幣に対して、最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を解消する向きであるか否かを判定し、判定用紙幣に対して、最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を解消する向きである場合、これらの紙幣を、次の所定枚数である100枚連続する判定用紙幣に含めて上記と同様の処理を行う。 After that, when the restart operation of the replenishment deposit process in the deposit / withdrawal section new ticket replenishment mode is input, the mounting plate 22 is raised while closing the shutter 20, and the replenishment deposit process in the deposit / withdrawal section new ticket replenishment mode is input. To resume. After this resumption, the control unit 16 determines from the detection result of the identification unit 28 that when the predetermined number of confirmed number (plurality of banknotes) is a banknote of the same denomination as the determination banknote, the determination banknote is used. Then, it is determined whether or not the direction is such that the inclination of the banknote S1 on the uppermost surface is eliminated. The same processing as described above is performed by including the banknotes for determination, which is a predetermined number of 100 consecutive judgment banknotes.

他方、再開後、所定の確認枚数の紙幣が、判定用紙幣に対して、最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を解消する向きでない場合、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24を停止させる。入出金繰出部24を停止後も、入出金部21から繰り出された紙幣のうち、識別部28で受け入れ可能と判定した紙幣を紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納する一方、識別部28で受け入れ不可と判定した紙幣を入金リジェクト部26に放出する。そして、制御部16は、入出金繰出部24を停止させた後、入出金部21から既に繰り出されている紙幣の搬送と並行して、シャッタ20を開きつつ載置板22を下げて、入出金部21の最上位置の紙幣を、蹴出ローラ24aから離し、再セットしやすい状態とするとともに、上記と同様に、入出金部21の紙幣の向きの確認または変更を促すガイダンスを含む報知を操作表示部15に行わせる。 On the other hand, after resuming, if the predetermined number of confirmed banknotes is not in the direction to eliminate the inclination of the banknote S1 on the uppermost surface with respect to the determination banknote, the deposit / withdrawal payout section 24 of the deposit / withdrawal section 21 is stopped. Even after the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 is stopped, among the banknotes drawn out from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21, the banknotes determined to be acceptable by the identification unit 28 are stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E), while being accepted by the identification unit 28. The banknote determined to be unacceptable is discharged to the deposit reject unit 26. Then, after stopping the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24, the control unit 16 lowers the mounting plate 22 while opening the shutter 20 in parallel with the transfer of the banknotes that have already been paid out from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 to enter / exit. The banknote at the highest position of the money section 21 is separated from the kick-out roller 24a to make it easy to reset, and similarly to the above, a notification including guidance for confirming or changing the direction of the banknote of the deposit / withdrawal part 21 is sent. Let the operation display unit 15 perform the operation.

以上を適宜繰り返すことで、入出金部21の紙幣がなくなったことが紙幣検知センサ19で検知され、入出金部21から繰り出されたすべての紙幣が、紙幣収納カセット35(E)および入金リジェクト部26のいずれかに搬送されると、制御部16は、識別部28で受け入れ可能と判定して紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留した紙幣の金種別の枚数および総額等を操作表示部15に表示させて、操作表示部15への承認操作およびキャンセル操作の入力を待機する。よって、例えば、同一金種の複数束の官封券の帯封を解いた新券が、表裏および紙幣上下を同じ向きにして纏めて入出金部21に投入されたとしても、これらの紙幣は、向きが傾斜を抑制するように変えられて紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留されることになる。 By repeating the above as appropriate, the banknote detection sensor 19 detects that the banknotes in the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 have run out, and all the banknotes drawn out from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 are the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) and the deposit reject unit. When transported to any of the 26, the control unit 16 determines that the identification unit 28 is acceptable, and displays the number and total amount of banknotes temporarily stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) by the operation display unit 15. Is displayed, and the input of the approval operation and the cancel operation to the operation display unit 15 is awaited. Therefore, for example, even if a new ticket with a plurality of bundles of the same denomination unsealed is put into the deposit / withdrawal section 21 with the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the banknotes facing the same direction, these banknotes will be inserted. The orientation is changed so as to suppress the inclination, and the banknotes are temporarily stored in the bill storage cassette 35 (E).

[補充収納処理]
入出金部新券補充モードでの補充入金処理後、操作表示部15への承認操作が入力されると、第1実施形態と同様の補充収納処理を行う。
[Replenishment storage process]
Deposit / Withdrawal Section After the replenishment / deposit process in the new ticket replenishment mode, when an approval operation is input to the operation display unit 15, the replenishment / storage process similar to that of the first embodiment is performed.

[補充返却処理]
入出金部新券補充モードでの補充入金処理後、操作表示部15へのキャンセル操作が入力されると、第1実施形態と同様の補充返却処理を行う。
[Replenishment return processing]
Deposit / Withdrawal Section After the replenishment / deposit process in the new ticket replenishment mode, when a cancel operation is input to the operation display unit 15, the replenishment / return process similar to that of the first embodiment is performed.

以上の第2実施形態によれば、操作表示部15によって入出金部新券補充モードが設定された状態で、繰出検知センサ25が所定枚数の判定用紙幣を検出すると、入出金繰出部24から同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたと判定して、入出金繰出部24を停止させるとともに、入出金部21の紙幣の向きの確認または変更を促すガイダンスを含む報知を操作表示部15に行わせる。よって、操作者の選択設定に基づいて、入出金繰出部24から同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたことを判定することができる。 According to the second embodiment described above, when the payout detection sensor 25 detects a predetermined number of determination bills in a state where the deposit / withdrawal section new ticket replenishment mode is set by the operation display unit 15, the deposit / withdrawal payout section 24 It is determined that a predetermined number of new banknotes of the same denomination have been continuously delivered in the same direction on the front and back and the top and bottom of the banknote, the deposit / withdrawal transfer section 24 is stopped, and the direction of the banknotes in the deposit / withdrawal section 21 is confirmed or changed. The operation display unit 15 is made to perform a notification including guidance for prompting. Therefore, based on the operator's selection setting, it can be determined that a predetermined number of new banknotes of the same denomination have been continuously delivered from the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 with the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the banknotes in the same direction.

ここで、第2実施形態において、入出金繰出部24を停止させることなく、所定枚数である100枚の判定用紙幣よりも1枚多い101枚目の紙幣すなわち判定用紙幣の後の紙幣を識別部28で確認後に紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留するように制御し、この101枚目の紙幣の識別部28による識別結果が、100枚目までの判定用紙幣のうち、1枚目から所定枚数である例えば80枚目を構成する紙幣に対して、同一金種で、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納される際に最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制するように向きが変えられている場合、制御部16は、この101目の紙幣を判定用紙幣の1枚目として次の100枚の判定用紙幣を継続して入出金部21から入出金繰出部24によって繰り出させ、このような処理を連続して行わせるようにしても良い。これにより、同一金種の複数束の官封券の帯封を解いた新券が、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納される際に最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制するように、束毎に向きが変えられて、入出金部21にセットされている場合、不必要に補充入金処理を停止させてしまうことがなくなる。 Here, in the second embodiment, the 101st bill, that is, the bill after the judgment bill, which is one more than the predetermined number of 100 judgment bills, is identified without stopping the deposit / withdrawal feeding unit 24. After confirmation by unit 28, control is performed so that the banknotes are temporarily stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E), and the identification result of the 101st banknote by the identification unit 28 is the first of the 100th determination banknotes. The orientation of the banknotes constituting the 80th banknote, for example, which is a predetermined number of banknotes, is changed so as to suppress the inclination of the banknote S1 on the uppermost surface when the banknotes are stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) with the same denomination. If this is the case, the control unit 16 uses the 101st bill as the first judgment bill to continuously pay out the next 100 judgment bills from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 by the deposit / withdrawal delivery unit 24. Such processing may be continuously performed. As a result, when the unsealed new ticket of a plurality of bundles of the same denomination is stored in the bill storage cassette 35 (E), each bundle is suppressed so as to suppress the inclination of the topmost bill S1. When the direction is changed to and set in the deposit / withdrawal unit 21, the supplementary deposit process will not be stopped unnecessarily.

この場合、101枚目の紙幣が、100枚目までの判定用紙幣のうち、1枚目から所定枚数である例えば80枚目の紙幣に対して、同一金種で、表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きである等、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納される際に最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制するように向きが変えられていない場合、101枚目の紙幣を識別部28の検出結果に基づき判定した時点で、入出金繰出部24を停止させるとともに、入出金部21から既に繰り出されている紙幣の搬送と並行して、シャッタ20を開きつつ載置板22を下げて、入出金部21の最上位置の紙幣を、蹴出ローラ24aから離し、再セットしやすい状態とするとともに、入出金部21の紙幣の向きの確認または変更を促す第1実施形態と同様の報知を操作表示部15に行わせる。その際に、101枚を超える枚数の紙幣が紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納されることになるが、最上面の紙幣S1を傾斜させるほどの枚数にはならない。 In this case, the 101st banknote has the same denomination as the 80th banknote, for example, which is a predetermined number from the first banknote among the 100th determination banknotes, and the front and back and the top and bottom of the banknote are the same. If the orientation is not changed so as to suppress the inclination of the uppermost bill S1 when stored in the bill storage cassette 35 (E), such as the orientation, the detection result of the identification unit 28 is the 101st bill. At the time of determination based on the above, the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 is stopped, and in parallel with the transport of the banknotes that have already been paid out from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21, the loading plate 22 is lowered while opening the shutter 20 to deposit and withdraw. The banknote at the highest position of the unit 21 is separated from the kicking roller 24a to make it easy to reset, and the same notification as in the first embodiment for confirming or changing the direction of the banknote of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 is operated and displayed. Let part 15 do it. At that time, the number of banknotes exceeding 101 is stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E), but the number is not enough to tilt the banknote S1 on the uppermost surface.

このように構成すれば、制御部16は、操作表示部15によって入出金部新券補充モードが設定された状態で、識別部28が、同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの所定枚数連続する判定用紙幣を検出すると、入出金繰出部24から同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたと判定することになり、識別部28が識別する判定用紙幣の後の紙幣が判定用紙幣と同一金種で向きが異なる紙幣である場合は、入出金繰出部24による紙幣の繰り出しを継続させる。よって、不要に入出金繰出部24を停止させて報知を行ってしまうことを抑制できる。 With this configuration, the control unit 16 has the identification unit 28 in the state where the deposit / withdrawal unit new ticket replenishment mode is set by the operation display unit 15, and the identification unit 28 has a predetermined number of sheets of the same denomination with the same front and back and the same top and bottom of the bill. When a continuous determination banknote is detected, it is determined that a predetermined number of new banknotes of the same denomination have been continuously delivered from the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 with the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the banknote in the same direction, and the identification unit 28 identifies. If the banknote after the determination banknote is the same denomination as the determination banknote but has a different direction, the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 continues to pay out the banknote. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 from being unnecessarily stopped to perform the notification.

なお、101枚目を、1枚目からの100枚よりも少ない80枚と比較するのは、入金リジェクト部26へ繰り出されるリジェクト紙幣の影響を排除するためである。すなわち、101枚目を、1枚目から100枚と比較すると、1枚目から100枚目までの間にリジェクト紙幣が生じた場合、100枚目の前で紙幣の向きが変わって判定に影響を及ぼす可能性があるためである。 The reason why the 101st sheet is compared with 80 sheets, which is less than 100 sheets from the first sheet, is to eliminate the influence of the rejected banknotes sent out to the deposit reject unit 26. That is, when the 101st sheet is compared with the 1st to 100th sheets, if a rejected banknote is generated between the 1st sheet and the 100th sheet, the direction of the banknote changes in front of the 100th sheet, which affects the judgment. This is because there is a possibility of exerting.

このように、100枚の判定用紙幣を検出する前に、識別部28で受け入れ不可な紙幣を検出した場合には、識別部28において100枚目の前で紙幣の向きが変わることがある。このような場合に、向きが変わった紙幣が、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納される際に最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制するように向きが変わっていれば、入出金繰出部24を停止させることなく、向きが変わった紙幣を、判定用紙幣の1枚目として判定用紙幣の計数をやり直すようにし、その間、継続して入出金部21から入出金繰出部24によって紙幣を繰り出させるようにしても良い。 In this way, if the identification unit 28 detects an unacceptable banknote before detecting 100 determination banknotes, the direction of the banknote may change in front of the 100th banknote in the identification unit 28. In such a case, if the direction of the changed banknote is changed so as to suppress the inclination of the uppermost banknote S1 when stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E), the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 The banknotes whose orientation has changed are used as the first banknotes for judgment, and the banknotes for judgment are recounted. You may let it.

ここで、第1,第2実施形態において、制御部16は、識別部28が、同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで記番号が連続する所定枚数の判定用紙幣を検出すると、入出金繰出部24から同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたと判定して、入出金繰出部24を停止させるとともに、入出金部21の紙幣の向きの確認または変更を促すガイダンスを含む報知を操作表示部15に行わせるようにしても良い。 Here, in the first and second embodiments, when the identification unit 28 detects a predetermined number of determination bills of the same denomination, the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the bills are in the same direction and the serial numbers are continuous, the control unit 16 enters and exits. It is determined that a predetermined number of new banknotes of the same denomination have been continuously paid out from the money feeding section 24 with the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the banknotes facing the same direction. The operation display unit 15 may be made to perform a notification including guidance for confirming or changing the orientation.

すなわち、官封券の帯封を解いた新券を補充する場合、記番号として、一般的には、「・・・01」〜「・・・00(百の位の桁上がり)」のデータが検出されるか、「・・・00」、「(百の位の桁下がり後の)・・・99」〜「・・・01」のデータが検出されるので、これらの検出データの検出過程で、官封券の帯封を解いた新券の補充であると判断する。なお、これに加えて、紙幣の表裏および紙幣上下の識別結果をさらに確認しても良い。 That is, when replenishing a new ticket that has been unwrapped from a government-sealed ticket, data of "... 01" to "... 00 (carrying up to the hundreds digit)" is generally used as the serial number. Since the data of "... 00", "(after the digit of the hundreds digit) ... 99" to "... 01" is detected, the detection process of these detected data Therefore, it is judged that the new ticket is replenished after the strap of the officially sealed ticket is released. In addition to this, the identification results of the front and back of the bill and the top and bottom of the bill may be further confirmed.

このように構成すれば、官封券の帯封を解いた新券において可能性が高い連続する記番号の検出で、向きが一定の新券であることを判定するため、入出金繰出部24から同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたことを、より正確に判定することができる。 With this configuration, in order to determine that the new ticket has a fixed orientation by detecting consecutive serial numbers that are likely to be in the new ticket that has been unstrapped, the deposit / withdrawal delivery unit 24 It is possible to more accurately determine that a predetermined number of new banknotes of the same denomination have been continuously delivered in the same direction on the front and back and the top and bottom of the banknote.

<第3実施形態>
本発明に係る第3実施形態の紙幣処理機を、主に図10〜図12を参照して第1実施形態との相違部分を中心に説明する。
<Third Embodiment>
The banknote processing machine of the third embodiment according to the present invention will be described mainly with reference to FIGS. 10 to 12 and focusing on differences from the first embodiment.

図10に示すように、第3実施形態においては、搬送路41Aにおける搬送路41Tの分岐位置と搬送路41Sの合流位置との間から分岐して搬送路41Aの識別部28と搬送路41Dの分岐位置との間に合流する搬送路41Vと、搬送路41Sの表裏反転部43よりも識別部28とは反対側から分岐して搬送路41Aの並列区間部41Uに合流する搬送路41Wと、並列区間部41Uの搬送路41Wの合流位置と搬送路41Lの合流位置との間から分岐して搬送路41Aの搬送路41Vの合流位置と搬送路41Dの分岐位置との間に合流する搬送路41Xとを有している。 As shown in FIG. 10, in the third embodiment, the identification unit 28 of the transport path 41A and the transport path 41D are branched from between the branch position of the transport path 41T in the transport path 41A and the confluence position of the transport path 41S. A transport path 41V that merges with the branch position, and a transport path 41W that branches from the side opposite to the identification unit 28 from the front-back reversal portion 43 of the transport path 41S and merges with the parallel section portion 41U of the transport path 41A. A transport path that branches from between the confluence position of the transport path 41W of the parallel section 41U and the confluence position of the transport path 41L and merges between the confluence position of the transport path 41V of the transport path 41A and the branch position of the transport path 41D. It has 41X.

そして、第3実施形態においては、紙幣向き変更部44が、第1実施形態と同様のバラ紙幣出金処理および補充返却処理に加えて、補充入金処理においても、識別部28で識別された紙幣の表裏の向きを変更可能となっている。なお、第3実施形態において、通常入金処理は、第1実施形態と同様に作動する。 Then, in the third embodiment, the bill orientation changing unit 44 performs the bills identified by the identification unit 28 in the supplementary deposit processing in addition to the loose bill withdrawal processing and the replenishment / return processing similar to those in the first embodiment. It is possible to change the direction of the front and back of the. In the third embodiment, the normal deposit process operates in the same manner as in the first embodiment.

[入出金部補充入金処理]
図11の太線は、機外から装填部としての入出金部21に投入されたバラ紙幣を搬送しつつ識別計数し適宜表裏を反転させる第3実施形態の入出金部補充入金処理のルートを示している。つまり、第3実施形態において、操作表示部15に入出金部補充モードでの補充入金処理の選択操作がなされると、制御部16は、シャッタ20を開き、その後、入出金部21の載置板22上にバラ紙幣が載置されたことを紙幣検知センサ19で検知して、操作表示部15に補充入金処理の実行操作がなされると、シャッタ20を閉じ、載置板22を上昇させて、入出金繰出部24の蹴出ローラ24aに最上位置の紙幣を当接させることになる。この状態で、入出金繰出部24が、入出金部21の載置板22上の紙幣を最上部の紙幣から順に、蹴出ローラ24aで蹴り出し繰出ローラ24bおよび分離ローラ24cで一枚ずつに分離しつつ所定の間隔をあけて繰り出すことになり、繰り出した紙幣を、搬送路41Aから搬送路41Vで搬送し、搬送路41A,41S,41W,41L,41C等で搬送することになる。
[Deposit / Withdrawal Department Replenishment Deposit Processing]
The thick line in FIG. 11 shows the route of the deposit / withdrawal unit replenishment / deposit processing of the third embodiment in which the loose bills inserted into the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 as the loading unit are identified and counted from outside the machine and the front and back sides are appropriately reversed. ing. That is, in the third embodiment, when the operation display unit 15 selects the replenishment / deposit processing in the deposit / withdrawal unit replenishment mode, the control unit 16 opens the shutter 20 and then places the deposit / withdrawal unit 21. When the bill detection sensor 19 detects that the loose bills have been placed on the plate 22, and the operation display unit 15 performs a replenishment deposit process, the shutter 20 is closed and the mounting plate 22 is raised. Therefore, the banknote at the highest position is brought into contact with the kicking roller 24a of the deposit / withdrawal feeding section 24. In this state, the deposit / withdrawal feeding unit 24 kicks out the banknotes on the mounting plate 22 of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 in order from the topmost banknote with the kicking roller 24a and with the separating roller 24b and the separating roller 24c one by one. The banknotes are fed out at predetermined intervals while being separated, and the drawn banknotes are transported from the transport path 41A through the transport path 41V and then through the transport paths 41A, 41S, 41W, 41L, 41C and the like.

その際に、搬送路41Aでの搬送中に識別部28が紙幣を識別計数することになり、識別部28で受け入れ可能と判定した紙幣を、図11に太実線で示すように、搬送路41Aあるいは搬送路41A,41S,41Wで搬送し、搬送路41L,41Cで最も前側に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(E)に搬送する。その一方で、識別部28で受け入れ不可と判定した紙幣を、図11に太破線で示すように、搬送路41Aから、搬送路41Q,41Pで入金リジェクト部26に搬送する。これにより、受け入れ可能な紙幣を最も前側に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留し、受け入れ不可な紙幣を入金リジェクト部26に放出する。 At that time, the identification unit 28 identifies and counts the banknotes during the transportation in the transportation path 41A, and the banknotes determined to be acceptable by the identification unit 28 are shown by the thick solid line in FIG. 11 in the transportation path 41A. Alternatively, the banknotes are transported in the transport paths 41A, 41S, 41W, and are transported to the bill storage cassette 35 (E) arranged on the frontmost side in the transport paths 41L, 41C. On the other hand, the banknotes determined to be unacceptable by the identification unit 28 are transported from the transport path 41A to the deposit reject section 26 through the transport paths 41Q and 41P, as shown by the thick broken line in FIG. As a result, acceptable banknotes are temporarily stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) arranged on the frontmost side, and unacceptable banknotes are discharged to the deposit reject unit 26.

そして、入出金部21の紙幣がなくなったことが紙幣検知センサ19で検知され、入出金部21から繰り出されたすべての紙幣が、紙幣収納カセット35(E)および入金リジェクト部26のいずれかに搬送されると、制御部16は、識別部28で受け入れ可能と判定して紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留した紙幣の金種別の枚数および総額等を操作表示部15に表示させて、操作表示部15への承認操作およびキャンセル操作の入力を待機する。 Then, the banknote detection sensor 19 detects that the banknotes in the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 have run out, and all the banknotes drawn out from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 are placed in either the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) or the deposit / withdrawal unit 26. When the banknotes are transported, the control unit 16 determines that the banknotes can be accepted by the identification unit 28, and displays the number of denominations and the total amount of banknotes temporarily stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) on the operation display unit 15. Waits for input of approval operation and cancel operation to the operation display unit 15.

第3実施形態では、制御部16が、上記した入出金部補充モードでの入出金部補充入金処理中に、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24から、同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたか否かを判定し、該判定の結果に基づいて、紙幣向き変更部44を制御して、紙幣向き変更部44を通過後の紙幣が収納される紙幣収納カセット35(E)、および、その後に紙幣収納カセット35(E)から紙幣が搬送される紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)において、最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制する、以下の傾斜抑制向き制御を行う。 In the third embodiment, during the deposit / withdrawal unit replenishment / deposit process in the deposit / withdrawal unit replenishment mode described above, the control unit 16 displays new banknotes of the same denomination from the deposit / withdrawal withdrawal unit 24 of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21. And, it is determined whether or not a predetermined number of banknotes have been continuously fed out in the same direction, and based on the result of the determination, the banknote orientation changing unit 44 is controlled so that the banknotes after passing through the banknote orientation changing unit 44 In the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) to be stored and the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D) in which the banknotes are subsequently transported from the banknote storage cassette 35 (E), the inclination of the banknote S1 on the uppermost surface is set. The following tilt suppression direction control is performed.

制御部16は、識別部28が、Aタイプ金種の同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの所定枚数である100枚連続する判定用紙幣を検出すると、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24から、Aタイプ金種の同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数である100枚連続して繰り出されたと判定する。そして、制御部16は、識別部28が識別する100枚の判定用紙幣の後の101枚目の紙幣が、判定用紙幣と同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの紙幣であると、紙幣向き変更部44で当該紙幣の表裏の向きを変更し、この紙幣を次の判定用紙幣の1枚目として、次の100枚に向けて同様の制御を行うことになり、その際、この1枚目と同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの紙幣が続く限り、紙幣向き変更部44で表裏の向きを変更する状態を続ける。 When the identification unit 28 detects 100 consecutive determination bills of the same denomination of the A type denomination and the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the bills in the same direction, the control unit 16 pays out the deposits and withdrawals of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21. From section 24, it is determined that 100 new banknotes of the same denomination of the A type denomination have been continuously paid out in the same direction on the front and back and the top and bottom of the banknote, which is a predetermined number. Then, the control unit 16 determines that the 101st banknote after the 100 determination banknotes identified by the identification unit 28 is a banknote of the same denomination as the determination banknote and with the front and back and the top and bottom of the banknote in the same direction. The bill orientation changing unit 44 changes the orientation of the front and back of the bill, and this bill is used as the first of the next judgment bills, and the same control is performed toward the next 100 bills. As long as the banknotes of the same denomination as the first sheet and having the same direction on the front and back and the top and bottom of the banknote continue, the state of changing the direction of the front and back by the bill orientation changing unit 44 is continued.

その一方、識別部28で、Aタイプ金種の100枚の判定用紙幣が検出され、その後の101枚目の紙幣が判定用紙幣と同一金種で紙幣収納カセット35(E)における最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を解消する向きの紙幣である場合と、100枚の判定用紙幣が検出される以前に、それまでの判定用紙幣と同一金種で紙幣収納カセット35(E)における最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を解消する向きの紙幣が検出された場合とについては、紙幣向き変更部44で当該紙幣の表裏の向きを変更せず、この紙幣を次の判定用紙幣の1枚目として、次の100枚に向けて同様の制御を行うことになり、その際、この1枚目と同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの紙幣が続く限り、紙幣向き変更部44で表裏の向きを変更しない状態を続ける。 On the other hand, the identification unit 28 detects 100 judgment bills of the A type denomination, and the 101st bill after that is the same denomination as the judgment bill and is the top surface of the bill storage cassette 35 (E). In the case where the banknote S1 is oriented to eliminate the inclination, and before 100 judgment banknotes are detected, the top surface of the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) with the same denomination as the previous judgment banknotes. When a banknote in a direction that eliminates the inclination of the banknote S1 is detected, the banknote orientation changing unit 44 does not change the front and back directions of the banknote, and this banknote is used as the first sheet of the next determination banknote. The same control will be performed for the next 100 banknotes, and at that time, as long as the banknotes of the same denomination as the first banknote and the front and back and the top and bottom of the banknote are in the same direction continue, the direction of the front and back of the banknote orientation changing unit 44 Continue to be unchanged.

なお、制御部16は、識別部28が、Bタイプ金種の同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの所定枚数である100枚連続する判定用紙幣を検出すると、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24から、Bタイプ金種の同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数である100枚連続して繰り出されたと判定する。そして、制御部16は、識別部28が識別する100枚の判定用紙幣の後の101枚目の紙幣が、判定用紙幣と同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの紙幣であると、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24を停止させて、第1実施形態と同様に、紙幣の向きの変更を促すガイダンスを含む報知を操作表示部15に行わせる。 When the identification unit 28 detects 100 consecutive determination bills of the same denomination of the B type denomination and the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the bills are in the same direction, the control unit 16 deposits / withdraws the deposit / withdrawal unit 21. From the money feeding unit 24, it is determined that 100 new banknotes of the same denomination of the B type denomination have been continuously paid out in the same direction on the front and back and the top and bottom of the banknote, which is a predetermined number. Then, the control unit 16 determines that the 101st banknote after the 100 determination banknotes identified by the identification unit 28 is a banknote of the same denomination as the determination banknote and with the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the banknote in the same direction. The deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 is stopped, and the operation display unit 15 is made to perform the notification including the guidance for prompting the change of the direction of the banknote, as in the first embodiment.

その一方、識別部28で、Bタイプ金種の100枚の判定用紙幣が検出され、その後の101枚目の紙幣が判定用紙幣と同一金種で紙幣収納カセット35(E)における最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を解消する向きの紙幣である場合と、100枚の判定用紙幣が検出される以前に、それまでの判定用紙幣と同一金種で紙幣収納カセット35(E)における最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を解消する向きの紙幣が検出された場合とについては、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24を停止させることなく、この紙幣を次の判定用紙幣の1枚目として、次の100枚に向けて同様の制御を行うことになる。 On the other hand, the identification unit 28 detects 100 judgment bills of the B type denomination, and the 101st bill after that is the same denomination as the judgment bill and is the top surface of the bill storage cassette 35 (E). In the case where the banknote S1 is oriented to eliminate the inclination, and before 100 judgment banknotes are detected, the top surface of the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) with the same denomination as the previous judgment banknotes. In the case where a banknote in a direction for eliminating the inclination of the banknote S1 is detected, this banknote is used as the first of the next determination banknotes without stopping the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21. The same control will be performed toward 100 sheets of.

ここで、上記のように識別部28で所定枚数である100枚の紙幣を計数する間において、それまでに入出金部21から繰り出された紙幣のうち、識別部28で受け入れ可能と判定した紙幣を、図11に太実線で示すように紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納する一方、識別部28で受け入れ不可と判定した紙幣を、図11に太破線で示すように入金リジェクト部26に放出する。識別部28で受け入れ不可と判定した紙幣については、所定枚数である100枚の紙幣に含めずに除外し、その分の紙幣だけを入出金部21の入出金繰出部24で追加で繰り出させる。これにより、判定用紙幣の1枚目から100枚目までの受け入れ可能な紙幣を紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納し、判定用紙幣の101枚目から200枚目までの受け入れ可能な紙幣を、最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を解消する向きで紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納し、以後、201枚目以降についても同様に収納することができる。 Here, while the identification unit 28 counts 100 banknotes, which is a predetermined number as described above, among the banknotes that have been paid out from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21, the banknotes that the identification unit 28 determines to be acceptable. Is stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) as shown by the thick solid line in FIG. 11, while the banknotes determined to be unacceptable by the identification unit 28 are discharged to the deposit reject unit 26 as shown by the thick broken line in FIG. do. The banknotes determined to be unacceptable by the identification unit 28 are excluded without being included in the predetermined number of 100 banknotes, and only the banknotes corresponding to the banknotes are additionally paid out by the deposit / withdrawal / withdrawal unit 24 of the deposit / withdrawal unit 21. As a result, the acceptable banknotes from the first to the 100th judgment banknotes are stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E), and the 101st to 200th acceptable banknotes of the judgment banknotes are stored. , The banknotes S1 on the uppermost surface can be stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) in a direction for eliminating the inclination, and thereafter, the 201st and subsequent banknotes can be stored in the same manner.

以上を適宜繰り返すことで、入出金部21の紙幣がなくなったことが紙幣検知センサ19で検知され、入出金部21から繰り出されたすべての紙幣が、紙幣収納カセット35(E)および入金リジェクト部26のいずれかに搬送されると、制御部16は、識別部28で受け入れ可能と判定して紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留した紙幣の金種別の枚数および総額等を操作表示部15に表示させて、操作表示部15への承認操作およびキャンセル操作の入力を待機する。よって、例えば、同一金種の複数束の官封券の帯封を解いた新券が、表裏および紙幣上下を同じ向きにして纏めて入出金部21に投入されたとしても、これらの紙幣は、100数毎に向きが傾斜を抑制するように変えられて紙幣収納カセット35(E)に一時貯留されることになる。 By repeating the above as appropriate, the banknote detection sensor 19 detects that the banknotes in the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 have run out, and all the banknotes drawn out from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 are the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) and the deposit reject unit. When transported to any of the 26, the control unit 16 determines that the identification unit 28 is acceptable, and displays the number and total amount of banknotes temporarily stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) by the operation display unit 15. Is displayed, and the input of the approval operation and the cancel operation to the operation display unit 15 is awaited. Therefore, for example, even if new tickets that have been unwrapped from a plurality of bundles of officially sealed tickets of the same denomination are put together in the deposit / withdrawal section 21 with the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the banknotes facing the same direction, these banknotes will be inserted. The orientation is changed every 100 or more so as to suppress the inclination, and the banknotes are temporarily stored in the bill storage cassette 35 (E).

図12の太線は、機外で装填部としての紙幣収納カセット35(E)に補充用の紙幣が装填され、この紙幣収納カセット35(E)が紙幣処理機11にセットされて、この紙幣収納カセット35(E)からバラ紙幣を搬送しつつ識別計数し適宜表裏を反転させて紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)の対応するものに収納する第3実施形態のカセット補充処理のルートを示している。
[Cassette replenishment process]
The thick line in FIG. 12 shows that a bill storage cassette 35 (E) as a loading unit is loaded with replenishment bills outside the machine, and the bill storage cassette 35 (E) is set in the bill processing machine 11 to store the bills. Route of cassette replenishment processing of the third embodiment, in which loose bills are identified and counted while being transported from the cassette 35 (E), and the front and back sides are appropriately reversed and stored in the corresponding bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D). Is shown.

操作表示部15に、カセット補充モードで実行されるカセット補充処理の選択操作が入力されると、紙幣収納カセット35(E)からその繰出部36で繰り出した紙幣を、図12に太実線で示すように、搬送路41C,41A,41L,41A,41V,41Aで識別部28に搬送し、識別部28の識別結果に基づいて、搬送路41Aあるいは搬送路41A,41S,41Wで搬送し、その後、搬送路41X,搬送路41A,41D〜41Kの対応するものによって、奥から1番目〜4番目に配置された紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)の対応するものに搬送する。これにより、紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)の対応するものに紙幣を収納する。なお、識別部28で重送等と識別した紙幣については、図12に太破線で示すように、搬送路41A,41Q,41P,41Rによって出金リジェクト部27に搬送し、出金リジェクト部27に収納する。ここで、搬送路41Aにおいて、紙幣収納カセット35(E)から搬送路41Vに向かう紙幣と、識別部28から出金リジェクト部27に向かう紙幣とが重なるタイミングのときは、紙幣収納カセット35(E)からの紙幣を繰り出しを一時停止させて、識別部28から出金リジェクト部27に向かう紙幣を優先して搬送する。 When the selection operation of the cassette replenishment process executed in the cassette replenishment mode is input to the operation display unit 15, the bills drawn from the bill storage cassette 35 (E) by the payout unit 36 are shown by thick solid lines in FIG. As described above, the transport paths 41C, 41A, 41L, 41A, 41V, 41A are transported to the identification unit 28, and based on the identification result of the identification unit 28, the transport paths 41A or the transport paths 41A, 41S, 41W are used. , The transport paths 41X, the transport paths 41A, 41D to 41K correspond to the corresponding ones of the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D) arranged first to fourth from the back. As a result, the banknotes are stored in the corresponding items of the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D). Note that the banknotes identified as double-feed by the identification unit 28 are transported to the withdrawal reject unit 27 by the transport paths 41A, 41Q, 41P, 41R as shown by the thick broken line in FIG. 12, and the withdrawal reject unit 27. Store in. Here, in the transport path 41A, when the bills from the bill storage cassette 35 (E) toward the transport path 41V and the bills from the identification unit 28 toward the withdrawal reject unit 27 overlap, the bill storage cassette 35 (E) ) Is temporarily suspended, and the banknotes heading from the identification unit 28 to the withdrawal reject unit 27 are preferentially transported.

このカセット補充処理においても、上記入出金部補充入金処理において装填部としての入出金部21から収納繰出部としての紙幣収納カセット35(E)に紙幣を搬送する際に、紙幣向き変更部44で行った、最上部の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制する上記した傾斜抑制向き制御を、装填部としての紙幣収納カセット35(E)から繰り出した紙幣を、紙幣向き変更部44を通過後に、収納繰出部としての紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)に収納する際に行う。すなわち、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に、補充用紙幣として官封券の帯封が解かれた状態の新券紙幣が複数束分装填されることがあるが、この場合に、紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)に収納する際の最上部の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制する。 Also in this cassette replenishment process, when the banknotes are conveyed from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 as the loading unit to the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) as the storage feeding unit in the replenishment / deposit processing of the deposit / withdrawal unit, the bill orientation changing unit 44 The above-mentioned tilt suppression direction control for suppressing the inclination of the uppermost banknote S1 performed in This is performed when the banknotes are stored in the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D) as a unit. That is, the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) may be loaded with a plurality of bundles of new banknotes in a state in which the government-sealed banknotes are unwrapped as replenishment banknotes. In this case, the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) The inclination of the uppermost bill S1 when stored in A) to 35 (D) is suppressed.

以上の第3実施形態によれば、制御部16は、入出金部補充モードで、入出金繰出部24から同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたか否かを判定し、該判定の結果に基づいて、紙幣向き変更部44を制御して、紙幣を紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納し、紙幣収納カセット35(E)から紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)に収納するため、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納する紙幣および紙幣収納カセット35(E)から紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)に収納する紙幣の向きの変更が可能となり、紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(E)での繰り出し不良の発生を抑制することが可能となる。 According to the third embodiment described above, in the deposit / withdrawal section replenishment mode, the control unit 16 continuously pays out a predetermined number of new banknotes of the same denomination from the deposit / withdrawal payout section 24 with the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the banknotes facing the same direction. It is determined whether or not the banknotes have been sent, and based on the result of the determination, the bill orientation changing unit 44 is controlled to store the bills in the bill storage cassette 35 (E), and the bill storage cassette 35 (E) to the bill storage cassette. Banknotes to be stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) and banknotes to be stored in the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D) from the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) to be stored in the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D). It is possible to change the direction of the banknotes, and it is possible to suppress the occurrence of feeding defects in the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (E).

具体的に、制御部16は、識別部28が、同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの所定枚数連続する判定用紙幣を検出すると、入出金繰出部24から同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたと判定することになり、識別部28が識別する判定用紙幣の後の紙幣が判定用紙幣と同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの紙幣であると、紙幣向き変更部44で当該紙幣の向きを変更する一方、後の紙幣が判定用紙幣と同一金種で向きが異なる紙幣である場合は、紙幣向き変更部44で当該紙幣の向きを変更しない。よって、自動的かつ適正に、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納する紙幣、および紙幣収納カセット35(E)から繰り出して紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)に収納する紙幣の向きを、最上部の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制するように変更でき、紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(E)での繰り出し不良の発生を抑制することができる。 Specifically, when the identification unit 28 detects a predetermined number of consecutive determination bills of the same denomination with the same direction on the front and back and the top and bottom of the bill, the control unit 16 receives new bills of the same denomination from the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24. Is determined that the front and back and the top and bottom of the bill are continuously delivered in a predetermined number of sheets, and the bill after the judgment bill identified by the identification unit 28 is of the same denomination as the judgment bill, and the front and back and the top and bottom of the bill are If the bills have the same orientation, the bill orientation changing section 44 changes the orientation of the bill, while the bill orientation changing section 44 changes the orientation of the bills, while the subsequent bills have the same denomination as the judgment bill but have different orientations. Do not change the orientation of the bill. Therefore, the orientation of the bills to be stored in the bill storage cassette 35 (E) and the bills to be fed out from the bill storage cassette 35 (E) and stored in the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D) is automatically and appropriately determined. , The inclination of the uppermost bill S1 can be suppressed, and the occurrence of feeding defects in the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (E) can be suppressed.

また、制御部16は、カセット補充モードで、紙幣収納カセット35(E)から同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたか否かを判定し、該判定の結果に基づいて、紙幣向き変更部44を制御するため、紙幣収納カセット35(E)から繰り出し紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)に収納する紙幣の向きの変更が可能となり、紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)での繰り出し不良の発生を抑制することが可能となる。 Further, the control unit 16 determines in the cassette replenishment mode whether or not a predetermined number of new banknotes of the same denomination are continuously delivered from the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) with the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the banknotes facing the same direction. Since the bill orientation changing unit 44 is controlled based on the result of the determination, the orientation of the bills to be stored in the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D) can be changed from the bill storage cassette 35 (E). , It is possible to suppress the occurrence of feeding defects in the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D).

具体的に、制御部16は、識別部28が、同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの所定枚数連続する判定用紙幣を検出すると、紙幣収納カセット35(E)から同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたと判定することになり、識別部28が識別する判定用紙幣の後の紙幣が判定用紙幣と同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの紙幣であると、紙幣向き変更部44で当該紙幣の向きを変更する一方、後の紙幣が判定用紙幣と同一金種で向きが異なる紙幣である場合は、紙幣向き変更部44で当該紙幣の向きを変更しない。よって、自動的かつ適正に、紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)に収納する紙幣の向きを、最上部の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制するように変更でき、紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)での繰り出し不良の発生を抑制することができる。 Specifically, when the identification unit 28 detects a predetermined number of consecutive determination bills of the same denomination with the same direction on the front and back and the top and bottom of the bill, the control unit 16 is new to the same denomination from the bill storage cassette 35 (E). It is determined that the front and back and the top and bottom of the bill are continuously delivered in a predetermined number of bills, and the bill after the judgment bill identified by the identification unit 28 is the same denomination as the judgment bill and the front and back and the bill. If the bills have the same orientation up and down, the bill orientation changing unit 44 changes the orientation of the bills, while the bill orientation changing unit 44 changes the orientation of the bills, while the later bills have the same denomination as the judgment bill but have different orientations. At 44, the direction of the bill is not changed. Therefore, the orientation of the banknotes to be stored in the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D) can be automatically and appropriately changed so as to suppress the inclination of the uppermost banknote S1. It is possible to suppress the occurrence of feeding defects at ~ 35 (D).

また、入出金部21から、紙幣向き変更部44で向きを変えて紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納された紙幣を、補充返却処理において、紙幣向き変更部44で表裏の向きを揃えて入出金部21に繰り出すことができる。加えて、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納後、紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)に収納された紙幣を、バラ紙幣出金処理において、紙幣向き変更部44で表裏の向きを揃えて入出金部21に繰り出すことができる。 Further, the bills stored in the bill storage cassette 35 (E) from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 after being changed in the direction by the bill orientation changing unit 44 are put in and out by aligning the front and back directions at the bill orientation changing unit 44 in the replenishment / return processing. It can be delivered to the money section 21. In addition, after storing in the bill storage cassette 35 (E), the bills stored in the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D) are turned in the front and back directions by the bill orientation changing unit 44 in the loose bill withdrawal process. They can be aligned and paid out to the deposit / withdrawal section 21.

また、入出金部21から紙幣向き変更部44で向きを変えて紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納された紙幣、その後、紙幣収納カセット35(E)から紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)に収納された紙幣、および、紙幣収納カセット35(E)から紙幣向き変更部44で向きを変えて紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)に収納された紙幣に対し、同じ紙幣向き変更部44が、表裏の向きを揃えて入出金部21に繰り出す。すなわち、紙幣向き変更部44が、入金時紙幣向き変更部と出金時向き変更部とを兼用しているため、部品点数およびコストを抑制することができる。 Further, the banknotes stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) by changing the direction from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 to the banknote direction changing unit 44, and then from the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) to the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (A) to 35 ( The same banknotes are used for the banknotes stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (D) and the banknotes stored in the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D) by changing the direction from the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) by the banknote orientation changing unit 44. The orientation changing unit 44 aligns the front and back directions and pays out to the deposit / withdrawal unit 21. That is, since the bill orientation changing unit 44 also serves as the bill orientation changing portion at the time of deposit and the orientation changing portion at the time of withdrawal, the number of parts and the cost can be suppressed.

ここで、第3実施形態においても、制御部16は、識別部28が、同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで記番号が連続する所定枚数の判定用紙幣を検出すると、入出金繰出部24から同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたと判定して、識別部28が識別する判定用紙幣の後の紙幣が判定用紙幣と同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの紙幣であると、紙幣向き変更部44で当該紙幣の向きを変更する一方、識別部28が識別する判定用紙幣の後の紙幣が判定用紙幣と同一金種で向きが異なる紙幣である場合は、紙幣向き変更部44で当該紙幣の向きを変更しないように制御しても良い。 Here, also in the third embodiment, when the identification unit 28 detects a predetermined number of determination bills of the same denomination, the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the bills are in the same direction and the serial numbers are continuous, the deposit / withdrawal is paid out. It is determined that a predetermined number of new banknotes of the same denomination have been continuously delivered from the unit 24 in the same direction on the front and back and the top and bottom of the banknote, and the banknote after the determination banknote identified by the identification unit 28 is the same as the determination banknote. If the front and back and the top and bottom of the bill are the same orientation in the denomination, the bill orientation changing unit 44 changes the orientation of the bill, while the bill after the judgment bill identified by the identification unit 28 is the same as the judgment bill. When the bills have different orientations depending on the denomination, the bill orientation changing unit 44 may control so that the orientation of the bills is not changed.

このように構成すれば、官封券の帯封を解いた新券において可能性が高い連続する記番号の検出で、向きが一定の新券であることを判定するため、入出金部補充モードでの入出金繰出部24、および、カセット補充モードでの紙幣収納カセット35(E)から同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたことを、より正確に判定することができる。 With this configuration, in order to determine that the new ticket has a fixed orientation by detecting consecutive serial numbers that are likely to be in the new ticket that has been unstrapped, the deposit / withdrawal section replenishment mode is used. From the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 and the bill storage cassette 35 (E) in the cassette replenishment mode, a predetermined number of new bills of the same denomination were continuously fed out in the same direction on the front and back and the top and bottom of the bills. It can be judged accurately.

第3実施形態において、第2実施形態と同様に、入出金部新券補充モードを選択可能としても良い。この場合、入出金部新券補充モードでは、官封券の帯封を解いた新券を全て表裏および紙幣上下を揃えた状態で入出金部21に装填するように操作表示部15で案内する。 In the third embodiment, as in the second embodiment, the deposit / withdrawal section new ticket replenishment mode may be selectable. In this case, in the deposit / withdrawal section new ticket replenishment mode, the operation display unit 15 guides the deposit / withdrawal section 21 to load all the new tickets that have been unwrapped from the government-sealed ticket with the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the banknotes aligned.

操作表示部15で、モードの選択設定が行われ、入出金部新券補充モードが選択された状態となって金種が指定されると、制御部16は、指定された金種がAタイプ金種である場合、補充入金処理中に、繰出検知センサ25の検知結果に基づいて、入出金部21の入出金繰出部24から所定枚数である100枚の紙幣が繰り出されるまで、入出金部21から紙幣収納カセット35(E)に紙幣向き変更部44で表裏反転させることなく紙幣を収納する。繰出検知センサ25の検知結果に基づいて、入出金繰出部24から所定枚数である100枚の紙幣が繰り出されたことを検知すると、同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたと判定して、引き続き、101枚目から200枚目までの紙幣を、すべて紙幣向き変更部44で表裏反転させて、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納し、さらに続けて、201枚目から300枚目までの紙幣を、すべて紙幣向き変更部44で表裏反転させずに紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納するという、最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制する傾斜抑制制御を適宜行う。 When the mode selection setting is made on the operation display unit 15 and the denomination is specified in the state where the deposit / withdrawal unit new ticket replenishment mode is selected, the specified denomination is A type in the control unit 16. In the case of a denomination, the deposit / withdrawal section is used until a predetermined number of 100 banknotes are paid out from the deposit / withdrawal delivery section 24 of the deposit / withdrawal section 21 based on the detection result of the payout detection sensor 25 during the replenishment deposit process. From 21 to the banknote storage cassette 35 (E), the banknote orientation changing unit 44 stores the banknotes without turning them upside down. Based on the detection result of the payout detection sensor 25, when it is detected that 100 bills, which is a predetermined number of bills, have been paid out from the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24, the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the bills of the same denomination are in the same direction. After determining that the predetermined number of banknotes have been continuously delivered, all the 101st to 200th banknotes are turned upside down by the banknote orientation changing unit 44 and stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E). Subsequently, all the 201st to 300th banknotes are stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E) without being turned upside down by the banknote orientation changing unit 44, which is an inclination that suppresses the inclination of the banknote S1 on the uppermost surface. Suppression control is performed as appropriate.

このように構成すれば、制御部16は、操作表示部15によって入出金部新券補充モードが設定された状態で、繰出検知センサ25が所定枚数の判定用紙幣を検出すると、入出金繰出部24から同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたと判定し、繰出検知センサ25が計数する判定用紙幣の後の紙幣の向きを紙幣向き変更部44で変更する。よって、操作者の選択設定に基づいて、自動的に、紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納し、その後、紙幣収納カセット35(E)から紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)に収納する紙幣の向きを、最上部の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制するように変更でき、繰り出し不良の発生を抑制することができる。 With this configuration, when the payout detection sensor 25 detects a predetermined number of determination bills in a state where the deposit / withdrawal unit new ticket replenishment mode is set by the operation display unit 15, the control unit 16 pays out the deposit / withdrawal unit. From 24, it is determined that a predetermined number of new banknotes of the same denomination have been continuously delivered in the same direction on the front and back and the top and bottom of the banknote, and the direction of the banknote after the determination banknote counted by the payout detection sensor 25 is changed. Change at 44. Therefore, it is automatically stored in the bill storage cassette 35 (E) based on the selection setting of the operator, and then stored in the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D) from the bill storage cassette 35 (E). The orientation of the bills to be played can be changed so as to suppress the inclination of the top bill S1, and the occurrence of feeding defects can be suppressed.

第3実施形態においては、紙幣向き変更部44が、紙幣左右の向きはそのままで、表裏および紙幣上下を反転するものを例にとり説明したが、紙幣向き変更部44として、捻り搬送部を有して紙幣の表裏、紙幣上下および紙幣左右の4方向を揃えるものを用いれば、Aタイプ金種は勿論、Bタイプ金種の紙幣についても、入出金部補充モードにおいて、入出金部21から所定枚数の判定用紙幣を繰り出した後に、入出金繰出部24を一旦停止させることなく、所定枚数の後の紙幣を連続して送り出させ、この所定枚数の後の紙幣の向きを、紙幣収納カセット35(E)への収納時に最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制するように、例えば、その表裏状態を変えることなく、左右を入れ替えて、これらを紙幣収納カセット35(E)に収納し、その後、紙幣収納カセット35(E)から紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)に収納することができる。このように、捻り搬送部を加えた紙幣向き変更部44を用いることよって紙幣の4方向を変更制御することができる。 In the third embodiment, the bill orientation changing unit 44 has been described by taking as an example the one in which the front and back sides and the bills are turned upside down while keeping the left and right orientations of the bills as they are. If the front and back of the banknote, the top and bottom of the banknote, and the left and right of the banknote are aligned, not only the A type denomination but also the B type denomination of the banknote can have a predetermined number of banknotes from the deposit / withdrawal section 21 in the deposit / withdrawal section replenishment mode. After paying out the banknotes for determination of, the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 is not temporarily stopped, and the banknotes after the predetermined number of banknotes are continuously sent out, and the direction of the banknotes after the predetermined number of banknotes is set to the banknote storage cassette 35 ( In order to suppress the inclination of the banknote S1 on the uppermost surface when stored in E), for example, the left and right sides are exchanged without changing the front and back states, and these are stored in the banknote storage cassette 35 (E), and then the banknotes are stored. It can be stored in the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D) from the storage cassette 35 (E). In this way, it is possible to change and control the four directions of the banknote by using the banknote orientation changing unit 44 to which the twisting and transporting unit is added.

同様に、カセット補充モードにおいても、紙幣収納カセット35(E)から所定枚数の判定用紙幣を繰り出した後に、繰出部36を一旦停止させることなく、所定枚数の後の紙幣を連続して送り出させ、この所定枚数の後の紙幣の向きを、紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)への収納時に最上面の紙幣S1の傾斜を抑制するように、例えば、その表裏状態を変えることなく、左右を入れ替えて、これらを紙幣収納カセット35(A)〜35(D)に収納することができる。 Similarly, in the cassette replenishment mode, after the predetermined number of determination bills are fed out from the bill storage cassette 35 (E), the bills after the predetermined number are continuously sent out without temporarily stopping the feeding unit 36. , For example, without changing the front and back states of the banknotes after the predetermined number of banknotes so as to suppress the inclination of the banknote S1 on the uppermost surface when the banknotes are stored in the banknote storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D). , The left and right can be exchanged, and these can be stored in the bill storage cassettes 35 (A) to 35 (D).

第1〜第3実施形態においては、入出金繰出部24が入出金部21から繰り出す紙幣を繰出検知センサ25で計数する場合を例にとり説明したが、識別部28を入出金繰出部24の近くに配置すれば、入出金部21から入出金繰出部24が繰り出す紙幣を識別部28で計数することも可能である。 In the first to third embodiments, the case where the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24 counts the bills to be paid out from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21 by the payout detection sensor 25 has been described as an example, but the identification unit 28 is located near the deposit / withdrawal payout unit 24. If it is arranged in, it is also possible for the identification unit 28 to count the banknotes paid out by the deposit / withdrawal delivery unit 24 from the deposit / withdrawal unit 21.

実施形態の第1の態様は、機外から紙幣が投入される入金部と、該入金部から紙幣を繰り出す繰出部と、該繰出部で繰り出された紙幣を搬送する搬送部と、該搬送部によって搬送される紙幣を識別する識別部と、該識別部によって識別された紙幣を繰り出し可能に収納する繰出収納部と、前記繰出部から同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたか否かを判定し、該判定の結果に基づいて前記繰出部の停止を制御する制御手段と、を備えることを特徴とする。 In the first aspect of the embodiment, a deposit section into which banknotes are inserted from outside the machine, a payout section for feeding banknotes from the deposit section, a transport section for transporting the banknotes delivered by the payout section, and the transport section. The identification unit that identifies the banknotes carried by the identification unit, the payout storage unit that stores the banknotes identified by the identification unit so that the banknotes can be paid out, and the new banknotes of the same denomination from the payout unit are oriented in the same direction. It is characterized in that it is provided with a control means for determining whether or not a predetermined number of sheets have been continuously delivered and controlling the stop of the feeding unit based on the result of the determination.

上記第1の態様によれば、制御手段は、繰出部から同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたか否かを判定し、該判定の結果に基づいて繰出部の停止を制御するため、繰出部を停止させることで入金部の残りの紙幣の向きの変更が可能となり、繰り出し不良の発生を抑制することが可能となる。 According to the first aspect, the control means determines whether or not a predetermined number of new banknotes of the same denomination have been continuously delivered from the payout unit with the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the banknotes in the same direction, and the result of the determination. Since the stop of the payout section is controlled based on the above, the direction of the remaining banknotes in the deposit section can be changed by stopping the payout section, and it is possible to suppress the occurrence of payout defects.

実施形態の第2の態様は、上記第1の態様において、報知を行う報知手段を備え、前記制御手段は、前記識別部が、同一金種で表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きの所定枚数連続する紙幣群を検出すると、前記繰出部から同一金種の新券紙幣が表裏および紙幣上下が同じ向きで所定枚数連続して繰り出されたと判定して、前記繰出部を停止させるとともに、前記入金部の紙幣の向きの確認または変更を促す報知を前記報知手段に行わせることを特徴とする。 The second aspect of the embodiment includes the notification means for performing the notification in the first aspect, and the control means has the identification unit having the same denomination and the front and back sides and the top and bottom of the bill continuously in the same direction.
