Some devices have a gold mechanism. In the case of a dispensing mechanism, a paper sheet discriminating unit for discriminating whether paper sheets are suitable for withdrawal based on a predetermined standard, a reject storage for storing rejected paper sheets that do not meet the predetermined standard, and withdrawal paper A storage room for storing leaves is required. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a dispensing mechanism that discharges paper sheets horizontally from a dispensing port. With this method, when the rejected paper sheet is detected by the paper sheet discriminating unit, it is necessary to store the normal paper sheet that has already been transported to the withdrawal port in the reject box, and then withdraw the money again. ineffective. Further, when a withdrawal port is provided in the safe to discharge horizontally, access to the safe from the outside becomes easy, and security cannot be ensured.
　一方、入出金機は、利用者に投入された紙葉類を取扱うことができるため需要が非常に高いが、搬送機構が複雑であること、入金された紙幣を出金する場合には、より高性能な紙葉類判別部が必要となることから、価格が高い。例えば、特開２００３－３４６２２１には、設定により入金機能を縮退し、出金のみを行うように変更可能とする装置が開示されている。 On the other hand, the demand for the deposit / withdrawal machine is very high because it can handle the paper sheets that have been thrown into the user. The price is high because a high-performance paper sheet discrimination unit is required. For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2003-346221 discloses an apparatus that can be changed so that the deposit function is reduced by setting and only withdrawal is performed.

　このように、紙葉類を出金する出金口を含む出金口部と、紙葉類の出金適否を判別する第１判別部と、紙葉類を収納する複数の収納庫と、複数の収納庫を内に保有する金庫と、金庫の上面かつ前面側に設けられた穴を通って、出金口部、第１判別部、収納庫を接続する搬送路と、紙葉類を搬送路上で双方向に搬送する制御部と、を有し、出金口部及び第１判別部は金庫外に設けられ、制御部は、出金時に、収納庫から繰出された紙葉類を出金口部へ搬送する構成により、金庫の小型化及びセキュリティを高めることが可能となる。 In this way, a dispensing port portion including a dispensing port for dispensing paper sheets, a first determining unit for determining whether paper sheets are dispensed, a plurality of storages for storing paper sheets, A safe having a plurality of storages therein, a withdrawal port, a first determination unit, a transport path connecting the storages, and paper sheets through a hole provided on the upper surface and the front side of the safe A control unit that transports bidirectionally on the transport path, the withdrawal port unit and the first determination unit are provided outside the safe, and the control unit is configured to remove the paper sheet fed from the storage at the time of withdrawal. With the configuration of transporting to the withdrawal port, it is possible to reduce the size and security of the safe.
　次に、紙幣出金機構１の出金処理について図６を用いて説明する。紙幣出金機構１は本体制御部１０６から出金指示を受信すると、本体制御部１０６から指示された枚数分、出金庫７０から紙幣を繰出す。例えば、最下段の出金庫７０から紙幣を繰出す場合、出金庫７０からは１枚ずつ紙幣を繰出し、通過センサ７０１ｆで枚数をカウントする。繰出された紙幣は、紙幣搬送路９０１ｈから９０１ｇ、９０１ｆ、９０１ｅ、５０１ｈの順に搬送され、紙幣判別部３０で枚数を判別し、紙幣搬送路５０１ｇを通って出金口２０まで搬送される。最下段の出金庫７０の出口付近に実装される通過センサ７０１ｆでカウントした枚数が本体制御部１０６から指示された枚数に達したら、出金庫７０からの繰出しを停止する。紙幣判別部３０で判別した枚数が本体制御部１０６から指示された枚数に達し、出金紙幣が全て出金口２０にスタックされたら、全ての紙幣搬送路５０１ｇ、５０１ｈ、９０１ｅ、９０１ｆ、９０１ｇ、９０１ｈを停止する。出金口２０は上部に開口部とシャッタ２０ａを有しており、出金処理が終了したら、シャッタ２０ａを開いて、利用者に紙幣を放出する。 Next, the dispensing process of the banknote dispensing mechanism 1 will be described with reference to FIG. When the banknote dispensing mechanism 1 receives a withdrawal instruction from the main body control unit 106, the banknote dispensing mechanism 1 feeds out banknotes from the dispensing safe 70 by the number instructed by the main body control unit 106. For example, when paying out banknotes from the lowermost safe box 70, the banknotes are fed one by one from the safe box 70, and the number of sheets is counted by the passage sensor 701f. The fed banknotes are transported in the order of the banknote transport paths 901h to 901g, 901f, 901e, and 501h, the number of sheets is determined by the banknote determination unit 30, and transported to the dispensing port 20 through the banknote transport path 501g. When the number of sheets counted by the passage sensor 701f mounted near the exit of the bottom safe box 70 reaches the number instructed from the main body control unit 106, the feeding from the safe box 70 is stopped. When the number of sheets discriminated by the bill discriminating unit 30 reaches the number instructed from the main body control unit 106 and all the withdrawal bills are stacked in the withdrawal port 20, all the bill transport paths 501g, 501h, 901e, 901f, 901g, Stop 901h. The dispensing port 20 has an opening and a shutter 20a at the top, and when the dispensing process is completed, the shutter 20a is opened to release a bill to the user.
　次に、紙幣出金機構１のリジェクト回収処理について図７を用いて説明する。出金庫から紙幣を繰出したら、それぞれの出金庫の出口に最も近い通過センサ７０１ｄ～７０１ｆのいずれかで紙幣の繰出し枚数をカウントするが、通過センサ７０１ｄ～７０１ｆは、通過した紙幣の枚数は正確にはわからない。例えば、２枚の紙幣が重なって出金庫から繰出された場合、通過センサ７０１ｄ～７０１ｆでは１枚とカウントする。最下段の出金庫７０から紙幣を繰出した場合、繰出された紙幣は紙幣搬送路９０１ｈから９０１ｇ、９０１ｆ、９０１ｅ、５０１ｈの順に搬送され、紙幣判別部３０が通過した紙幣を２枚と判別したら、全ての搬送路５０１ｇ、５０１ｈおよび９０１ｅ～９０１ｈの搬送路を停止する。搬送路停止後、図示せぬモータを逆転させて、搬送路を出金時とは反対の方向に動作させ、２枚と判別された紙幣はリジェクト庫６０に搬送し、後続紙幣は繰出し元の出金庫７０に搬送する。このように、収納庫の少なくとも一つは、第１判別部により出金に適さないと判断された紙葉類を収納するリジェクト庫であり、制御部は、出金に適さないと判断された紙葉類を、出金方向とは逆方向に搬送路を駆動させてリジェクト庫へ搬送する構成、また、出金に適さない紙葉類の後続の紙葉類を、後続の紙葉類が繰出された収納庫へ搬送する構成により、搬送路上にある紙葉類を全てリジェクト扱いにすることなく、効率の良い現金運用が可能となる。 Next, reject collection processing of the banknote dispensing mechanism 1 will be described with reference to FIG. When the banknotes are fed out from the safe, the number of banknotes fed out is counted by one of the passage sensors 701d to 701f closest to the exit of each bank, and the passage sensors 701d to 701f accurately count the number of passed banknotes. I do n’t know. For example, when two banknotes are overlapped and fed out from the safe, the passage sensors 701d to 701f count as one. When the banknotes are fed out from the bottom safe 70, the fed banknotes are transported in the order of the banknote transport paths 901h to 901g, 901f, 901e, and 501h, and the banknote determination unit 30 determines that two banknotes have passed. All the conveyance paths 501g, 501h and 901e to 901h are stopped. After the conveyance path is stopped, the motor (not shown) is rotated in the reverse direction so that the conveyance path is operated in the opposite direction to the time of withdrawal, the banknote determined to be two is conveyed to the reject box 60, and the subsequent banknotes are Transport to safe 70. As described above, at least one of the storages is a reject storage for storing paper sheets that are determined to be unsuitable for withdrawal by the first determination unit, and the control unit is determined to be unsuitable for withdrawals. A configuration in which a paper sheet is transported to a reject container by driving a conveyance path in a direction opposite to the withdrawal direction, and a subsequent paper sheet that is not suitable for withdrawal is designated as a subsequent paper sheet. With the configuration of transporting to the fed storage, efficient cash operation is possible without rejecting all the paper sheets on the transport path.
　次に、紙幣出金機構１の取忘れ回収処理について図８を用いて説明する。紙幣出金機構１は本体制御部１０６から取り忘れ回収指示を受信すると、出金口２０のシャッタ２０ａを閉める。ここで、取り忘れ発生有無については、出金口２０内に設けられた紙葉類検知センサにて所定時間以上紙葉類が検知される場合に取り忘れ有りと判断する。出金口２０から１枚ずつ紙幣を繰出す。出金口２０から繰出された紙幣は、紙幣搬送路５０１ｇ、５０１ｈ、９０１ｅを通ってリジェクト庫に収納される。このように、出金口部は、集積された紙葉類を一枚ずつ分離する分離機構を有し、出金口部において紙葉類の取り忘れを検出した場合には、制御部は、分離機構により、出金口部に集積された紙葉類を分離して繰出し、第１判別部により、繰出された紙葉類の枚数を計数し、搬送路を、出金方向とは逆方向に駆動させてリジェクト庫へ紙葉類を搬送することにより、利用者が取り忘れた紙葉類を確実に回収することが可能となる。 Next, the forgotten collection process of the banknote dispensing mechanism 1 will be described with reference to FIG. The banknote dispensing mechanism 1 closes the shutter 20a of the dispensing port 20 when receiving a forgetting collection instruction from the main body control unit 106. Here, regarding the presence or absence of forgetting to remove, it is determined that there is forgetting to take when a sheet detection sensor provided in the withdrawal port 20 detects a sheet for a predetermined time or more. One bill is fed out from the withdrawal port 20 one by one. The banknotes fed out from the withdrawal port 20 are stored in the reject box through the banknote transport paths 501g, 501h, and 901e. In this way, the withdrawal port portion has a separation mechanism that separates the accumulated paper sheets one by one, and when the forgetting to remove the paper sheets is detected at the withdrawal port portion, the control unit The separation mechanism separates and feeds out the paper sheets accumulated in the withdrawal port, and the first discrimination unit counts the number of fed paper sheets, and the transport path is in the direction opposite to the withdrawal direction. The paper sheets that are forgotten by the user can be reliably collected by driving the paper sheets to the reject box.
　次に、紙幣出金機構１のジャム発生時の処理について図９を用いて説明する。出金処理、リジェクト回収処理、取り忘れ回収処理のいずれかの処理では、通過センサ７０１ａ～７０１ｆのいずれかで紙幣の通過を監視するが、通過センサ７０１ａ～７０１ｆの状態が一定時間変化しない場合は、ジャムが発生したと判断し、５０１ｇ、５０１ｈおよび９０１ｅ～９０１ｈの搬送路を停止する。その後、ジャムが発生したことを本体制御部１０６に送信する。 Next, processing when a jam occurs in the banknote dispensing mechanism 1 will be described with reference to FIG. In any of the withdrawal process, the reject collection process, and the forgotten collection process, the passage of banknotes is monitored by any of the passage sensors 701a to 701f, but the state of the passage sensors 701a to 701f does not change for a certain period of time. Then, it is determined that a jam has occurred, and the conveyance paths 501g, 501h, and 901e to 901h are stopped. Thereafter, the fact that the jam has occurred is transmitted to the main body control unit 106.
　次に、搬送路５０１ｇの詳細について図１０を用いて説明する。搬送路５０１ｇは、出金口２０と一口で接続されているため、出金口２０を出入する紙葉類は、搬送路５０１ｇを双方向に駆動することにより双方向に搬送される。また、後述するが、リジェクト紙葉類が発生した場合を考慮した制御方法を採用する為、５０１ｇは途中で搬送路を分岐させる必要がなく1本の搬送路となっている。紙幣判別部３０にて紙幣枚数が２枚と判別された紙幣は出金口２０に搬送される前に、搬送路５０１ｇの駆動部を停止して紙幣の搬送を中止し、図示せぬ搬送路５０１ｇの駆動部を出金時とは逆方向に駆動し、紙幣を出金時と逆方向に搬送する。このとき２枚と判別された紙幣はリジェクト庫６０に搬送し、後続紙幣は出金庫７０へ搬送する。ここで、２枚と判別された紙幣が出金口２０に到達してから搬送を中止した場合は前紙幣との区別がつかなくなり、一旦全ての紙幣をリジェクト庫に搬送する必要があるため、２枚と判断された紙幣が出金口２０に到達する前に搬送を中止する必要がある。そのため、搬送路５０１ｇは２枚と判別された紙幣が出金口２０に到達するまでに停止できる距離が必要となる。しかし、搬送路を長くするために屈曲が大きくなると紙幣ジャムが発生しやすくなるため、搬送路はなるべく直線となるように構成することが望ましい。また、出金口２０の高さは、後述する紙幣入出金機構２と同じ高さにする必要があるため、搬送路を構成する空間は限られている。そこで、搬送路５０１ｇは、ローラ部までは直線とし、ローラ部に屈曲を設けることで紙幣ジャムを抑制し、かつ、搬送距離を稼ぐように構成する。即ち、搬送路の屈曲点にローラ部を設けて、複数のローラ部の間の搬送路は直線構成とする。ここで、ローラ部とは、２つの搬送ローラが対になった搬送ローラ対であり、この搬送ローラ対にて紙葉類を挟持することにより紙葉類を判定して搬送する。さらに、紙幣判別部３０で紙幣を判別してから、出金口２０に到達するまでの時間を稼ぐため、紙幣判別部３０を、搬送路５０１ｇの下端に設ける。このように、第１判別部が、出金口部の下方であって、穴の近傍に設置されることにより、出金口部にリジェクトすべき紙葉類が混在してしまうことを防ぐことができる。また、搬送路が、紙葉類を挟持して搬送する複数の搬送ローラ対を有し、搬送路のうち金庫外に設けられた搬送路が、搬送ローラ対の挟持点で屈曲する構成により、ジャム発生率を低減することが可能となる。 Next, details of the conveyance path 501g will be described with reference to FIG. Since the conveyance path 501g is connected to the withdrawal port 20 with a single mouth, the paper sheets entering and exiting the withdrawal port 20 are conveyed in both directions by driving the conveyance path 501g in both directions. Further, as will be described later, since a control method that takes into account the occurrence of reject paper sheets is employed, 501g does not need to be branched on the way, and is a single conveyance path. Before the banknote discriminating unit 30 discriminates that the number of banknotes is two, the transport unit 501g stops the driving unit of the transport path 501g before it is transported to the dispensing port 20, and the transport path (not shown) is stopped. The 501g drive unit is driven in the opposite direction to the time of withdrawal, and the banknote is conveyed in the opposite direction to the time of withdrawal. At this time, the banknote determined to be two is transported to the reject box 60, and the subsequent banknote is transported to the safe box 70. Here, when conveyance is stopped after the banknote determined to be two arrives at the withdrawal port 20, it becomes impossible to distinguish from the previous banknote, and it is necessary to once transport all banknotes to the reject box. It is necessary to stop the conveyance before the banknote determined to be two arrives at the withdrawal port 20. Therefore, the conveyance path 501g needs a distance that can be stopped before the banknote determined to be two reaches the dispensing port 20. However, if the bend is increased in order to lengthen the conveyance path, banknote jam is likely to occur. Therefore, it is desirable to configure the conveyance path as straight as possible. Moreover, since it is necessary to make the height of the withdrawal port 20 the same height as the banknote depositing / withdrawing mechanism 2 mentioned later, the space which comprises a conveyance path is limited. Therefore, the conveyance path 501g is configured to be a straight line up to the roller portion, and bend the roller portion to suppress bill jamming and increase the conveyance distance. That is, a roller part is provided at the bending point of the transport path, and the transport path between the plurality of roller parts has a linear configuration. Here, the roller section is a pair of transport rollers in which two transport rollers are paired, and the paper sheet is determined and transported by sandwiching the paper sheet with the transport roller pair. Furthermore, in order to earn time until the banknote discrimination | determination part 30 discriminate | determines a banknote and arrives at the payment | withdrawal port 20, the banknote discrimination | determination part 30 is provided in the lower end of the conveyance path 501g. In this way, the first discriminating unit is installed below the dispensing port portion and in the vicinity of the hole, thereby preventing the paper sheets to be rejected from being mixed in the dispensing port portion. Can do. In addition, the conveyance path has a plurality of conveyance roller pairs for nipping and conveying paper sheets, and the conveyance path provided outside the safe among the conveyance paths is bent at the nipping point of the conveyance roller pair. It is possible to reduce the jam occurrence rate.
　さらに、２枚の紙幣が前後にずれて一部だけ重なって一塊となった状態で搬送された場合、或いは紙幣が大きくスキューした場合、紙幣の搬送方向の長さが、紙幣１枚が正常に搬送されたときと比べて長くなるため、紙幣判別部３０を通過し終わるまでの時間が、紙幣１枚が正常に搬送されたときと比べて長くなる。このような場合、紙幣判別部３０で判別し終わってから、前述のように搬送路５０１ｇを停止しても、一塊となった紙幣のうち、先行する紙幣が出金口２０に入ってしまう場合や、大きくスキューした紙幣の一部が出金口２０に入ってしまう場合が生じる。そこで、紙幣が紙幣判別部３０を通過し終わる前に、出金口２０の手前に実装する通過センサ７０１ａで紙幣を検知した場合は、紙幣の搬送状態が悪いと判断し、紙幣が紙幣判別部３０を通過中であっても、搬送路５０１ｇを停止させる構成とする。そして、搬送路５０１ｇを駆動させる図示せぬ駆動部を停止させてから、出金口２０の入口に備える搬送ローラ３０１と、搬送路５０１ｇを駆動させる図示せぬ駆動部を、出金時とは逆方向に回転させて、搬送状態が悪い紙幣をリジェクト庫６０に搬送し、紙幣判別部３０の手前で停止していた紙幣は出金庫７０に搬送する。このように、紙幣判別部３０および通過センサ７０１ａで異常紙幣を検知することを契機に搬送路５０１ｇを停止させることにより、出金口２０に異常紙幣を収納しないようにできるので、本実施例では搬送路５０１ｇには搬送路を切替えるゲート機構は必要がない。また、出金口部と第１判別部を接続する搬送路上に紙葉類の通過を検知する検知センサを設けて、出金時に、第１判別部による判別処理が完了する前にセンサが紙葉類を検知した場合に、搬送路の駆動を停止するように制御することにより、リジェクトすべき紙葉類が出金口部に入ってしまうことを防ぐことが可能となる。 Furthermore, when the two banknotes are moved forward and backward and partially overlapped and conveyed in a lump, or when the banknotes are greatly skewed, the length of the banknotes in the conveying direction is normal. Since it becomes long compared with the time of being conveyed, the time until it finishes passing the banknote discrimination | determination part 30 becomes long compared with the time when one banknote is normally conveyed. In such a case, even if the conveyance path 501g is stopped as described above after the banknote discriminating unit 30 discriminates, the preceding banknote enters the dispensing port 20 among the banknotes in a lump. In other cases, a part of the banknote skewed greatly enters the dispensing slot 20. Therefore, when the banknote is detected by the passage sensor 701a mounted in front of the dispensing port 20 before the banknote passes through the banknote determination unit 30, it is determined that the conveyance state of the banknote is bad, and the banknote is the banknote determination unit. Even when passing 30, the conveyance path 501 g is stopped. Then, after stopping a drive unit (not shown) that drives the conveyance path 501g, a conveyance roller 301 provided at the entrance of the dispensing port 20 and a drive unit (not shown) that drives the conveyance path 501g are set at the time of withdrawal. By rotating in the reverse direction, the banknote in a bad transport state is transported to the reject box 60, and the banknote stopped before the banknote determination unit 30 is transported to the safe deposit box 70. As described above, since the banknote discriminating unit 30 and the passage sensor 701a detect the abnormal banknote, the conveyance path 501g is stopped, so that the abnormal banknote can be prevented from being stored in the withdrawal port 20. The transport path 501g does not need a gate mechanism for switching the transport path. In addition, a detection sensor that detects the passage of the paper sheet is provided on the conveyance path that connects the withdrawal port portion and the first discrimination portion, and the sensor is used before the discrimination processing by the first discrimination portion is completed at the time of withdrawal. By controlling to stop the driving of the conveyance path when the leaf is detected, it is possible to prevent the paper sheet to be rejected from entering the dispensing port.
　以下、実施例の一つである出金機から入出金機へ改造した場合の紙幣入出金機構２について図面を用いて説明する。紙幣入出金機構２は、前述した図１の現金自動取引装置に搭載される。搭載位置は、紙幣出金機１と同じ位置で、紙幣出金機構１を紙幣入出金機構２に置き換えたものと同じであり、他の機構については図１に記載の機構と同じであるため、これらについての説明は省略する。次に、図１１は本実施例の機能ブロック図である。図１１については、前述の図２の紙幣出金機構１を紙幣入出金機構２に置き換えただけであるため説明を省略する。 Hereinafter, the banknote depositing / dispensing mechanism 2 in the case of remodeling from a dispensing machine to a depositing / dispensing machine, which is one of the embodiments, will be described with reference to the drawings.

　ここで、本実施例の分別収納庫６１、装填・回収庫８１および前述の出金庫７０は、リサイクル庫８０と同じ外形で、それぞれ同じ位置に紙幣の出入口があるため、リサイクル庫８０の代わりに置換、装着することができるようになっており、例えば、図１２の下部紙幣機構１ｂにリジェクト庫６０を１つと分別収納庫６１を１つと、装填・回収庫８１を１つと、リサイクル庫８０を１つ備えるように構成することができる。なお、紙幣入出金機構２は、図１２に示すように、入出金口２１、紙幣判別部３１、一時保管庫４０と、偽券回収庫６２と、紙幣搬送路５０から構成される入出金機上部紙幣機構２ａと、リジェクト庫６０、リサイクル庫８０および、前述した下部紙幣機構１ｂから構成される。下部紙幣機構１ｂは、前述した紙幣出金機構１の場合と同様に金庫筐体１０８の中に実装されており、出金機上部紙幣機構１ａと下部紙幣機構１ｂとの搬送路は、連結搬送路５０１ｈで接続されている。連結搬送路５０１ｈは、紙幣出金機１と同様に、下部紙幣機構１ｂを囲う金庫筐体１０８の上面鉄板の入出金機上部紙幣機構２ａの搬送路５０１ｉと下部紙幣機構１ｂの搬送路９０１ｅの連結する位置に設けられる。下部紙幣機構１ｂおよび金庫筐体１０８は前述した通りである。また、紙幣搬送路５０は、紙幣判別部３１を双方向に通過し、５０１ｉ、５０１ｈおよび９０１ｅ～９０１ｈに示す搬送路を経由して、入出金口２１、リジェクト庫６０、出金庫７０を接続する。 Here, since the separation storage 61, the loading / recovery storage 81, and the aforementioned safe deposit box 70 according to the present embodiment have the same external shape as the recycling storage 80 and each have a banknote entrance at the same position, instead of the recycling storage 80. For example, the lower banknote mechanism 1b in FIG. 12 includes one reject storage 60, one sorting storage 61, one loading / recovery storage 81, and a recycling storage 80. It can comprise so that one may be provided. As shown in FIG. 12, the banknote depositing / withdrawing mechanism 2 includes a depositing / dispensing port 21, a banknote discriminating unit 31, a temporary storage 40, a counterfeit bill collection box 62, and a banknote transport path 50.

They are connected by a path 501h. Similarly to the banknote dispenser 1, the connection transport path 501h is formed between the transport path 501i of the upper bill mechanism 2a and the transport path 901e of the lower bill mechanism 1b on the upper surface iron plate of the safe casing 108 surrounding the lower bill mechanism 1b. It is provided at the position to connect. The lower bill mechanism 1b and the safe housing 108 are as described above. Further, the banknote transport path 50 bidirectionally passes through the banknote discriminating unit 31 and connects the deposit / withdrawal port 21, the reject storage 60, and the safe deposit box 70 via the transport paths indicated by 501i, 501h and 901e to 901h. .
　次に、紙幣入出金機構２の入金処理について図１４を用いて説明する。紙幣入出金機構２は本体制御部１０６から入金指示を受信すると、入出金口２１のシャッタ２１ａを開けて、利用者が入出金口２１に紙幣を投入する。入出金口２１には仕切板２１ｂが設けられており、利用者は仕切板２１ｂの手前側（利用者に近い側）に紙幣を投入する。紙幣入出金機構２は、紙幣の投入完了を検知したら、自動的にシャッタ２１ａを閉める。その後、入出金口２１から１枚ずつ紙幣を繰出す。入出金口２１から繰出された紙幣は、搬送路５０１ｉを通って、紙幣判別部３１で枚数、金種、真偽、正損、記番号等の紙幣の固有情報を判別される。紙幣判別部３１により、正常な紙幣と判別された紙幣は、紙幣搬送路５０１ｉ、５０１ｋ、５０１ｌを通って一時保管庫４０まで搬送される。紙幣判別部３１により、異常な紙幣と判別された紙幣は、紙幣搬送路５０１ｉ、５０１ｋ、５０１ｍを通って、入出金口２１内の仕切板２１ｂの後ろ側（利用者から遠い側、奥側）に収納される。
紙幣判別部３１で異常な紙幣が検出された場合は、入出金口２１のシャッタ２１ａを開けて、利用者へ返却する。利用者がすべての紙幣を入金後、取引を確定させたら、一時保管庫４０から紙幣を繰出し、搬送路５０１ｌ、５０１ｋを通って、紙幣判別部３１で再度、紙幣の枚数、金種、真偽、正損、記番号等の紙幣の固有情報を判別し、搬送路５０１ｉ、５０１ｈを通って、正常な紙幣は金種毎に設けられたリサイクル庫８０に金種別に分けて収納され、異常な紙幣はリジェクト庫に収納される。 Next, the depositing process of the banknote depositing / dispensing mechanism 2 will be described with reference to FIG. When the banknote deposit / withdrawal mechanism 2 receives a deposit instruction from the main body control unit 106, the shutter 21 a of the deposit / withdrawal slot 21 is opened and the user inserts the banknote into the deposit / withdrawal slot 21. A partition plate 21b is provided at the deposit / withdrawal port 21, and the user inserts banknotes into the front side (side closer to the user) of the partition plate 21b. The banknote deposit / withdrawal mechanism 2 automatically closes the shutter 21a when detecting the completion of the banknote insertion. Thereafter, banknotes are fed out from the deposit / withdrawal port 21 one by one. The banknotes drawn out from the deposit / withdrawal port 21 pass through the conveyance path 501i, and the banknote discrimination unit 31 discriminates the unique information of the banknotes such as the number, denomination, authenticity, correctness, serial number, and the like. The banknote discriminated as a normal banknote by the banknote discriminating unit 31 is transported to the temporary storage 40 through the banknote transport paths 501i, 501k, and 501l. The banknote discriminated as an abnormal banknote by the banknote discriminating unit 31 passes through the banknote transport paths 501i, 501k, and 501m, and is behind the partition plate 21b in the deposit / withdrawal port 21 (the far side and the far side from the user). It is stored in.
When an abnormal banknote is detected by the banknote discriminating unit 31, the shutter 21a of the deposit / withdrawal port 21 is opened and returned to the user. When the user confirms the transaction after depositing all the banknotes, the banknotes are paid out from the temporary storage 40, passed through the conveyance paths 501l and 501k, and again in the banknote discriminating unit 31 to determine the number of banknotes, denomination, and authenticity. The banknotes, such as the correctness, serial number, etc., are identified and the normal banknotes are stored in the recycle box 80 provided for each denomination by denomination through the transport paths 501i and 501h. Banknotes are stored in a reject box.
　次に、紙幣入出金機構２の出金処理について図１５を用いて説明する。紙幣入出金機構２は本体制御部１０６から出金指示を受信すると、本体制御部１０６から指示された枚数分、リサイクル庫８０から紙幣を繰出す。例えば、最下段のリサイクル庫８０から紙幣を繰出す場合、リサイクル庫８０からは１枚ずつ紙幣を繰出し、通過センサ７０１ｆで枚数をカウントする。繰出された紙幣は、紙幣搬送路９０１ｈから９０１ｇ、９０１ｆ、９０１ｅ、５０１ｈの順に搬送され、紙幣判別部３１で枚数、金種、真偽、正損、記番号等の紙幣の固有情報を判別する。紙幣判別部３１により、正常な紙幣と判別された紙幣は、紙幣搬送路５０１ｉ、５０１ｋ、５０１ｍを通って入出金口２１まで搬送される。
最下段のリサイクル庫８０の出口付近に実装される通過センサ７０１ｆでカウントした枚数が本体制御部１０６から指示された枚数に達したら、リサイクル庫８０からの繰出しを停止する。紙幣判別部３１で判別した枚数が本体制御部１０６から指示された枚数に達し、出金紙幣が全て入出金口２１にスタックされたら、全ての紙幣搬送路５０１ｈ、５０１ｉ、５０１ｊ、５０１ｋ、５０１ｌ、５０１ｍ、９０１ｅ、９０１ｆ、９０１ｇ、９０１ｈを停止する。 Next, the withdrawal process of the banknote depositing / withdrawing mechanism 2 will be described with reference to FIG. When the banknote deposit / withdrawal mechanism 2 receives a withdrawal instruction from the main body control unit 106, the banknote deposit / withdrawal mechanism 2 feeds out banknotes from the recycle box 80 by the number instructed by the main body control unit 106. For example, when paying out banknotes from the lowermost recycling box 80, the banknotes are fed out one by one from the recycling box 80, and the number of sheets is counted by the passage sensor 701f. The fed banknotes are transported in the order of the banknote transport paths 901h to 901g, 901f, 901e, and 501h, and the banknote discriminating unit 31 discriminates the unique information of the banknotes such as the number of sheets, denomination, authenticity, correctness, serial number, etc. . The banknote discriminated as a normal banknote by the banknote discriminating unit 31 is transported to the deposit / withdrawal port 21 through the banknote transport paths 501i, 501k, and 501m.
When the number of sheets counted by the passage sensor 701f mounted near the exit of the lowermost recycling store 80 reaches the number specified by the main body control unit 106, the feeding from the recycle store 80 is stopped. When the number of bills discriminated by the bill discriminating unit 31 reaches the number instructed from the main body control unit 106 and all the withdrawal bills are stacked in the deposit / withdrawal port 21, all the bill transport paths 501h, 501i, 501j, 501k, 501l, Stop 501m, 901e, 901f, 901g, 901h.
　なお、紙幣判別部３１により、異常な紙幣と判別された紙幣は、紙幣搬送路５０１ｉ、５０１ｋ、５０１ｌを通って、一旦、一時保管庫４０に搬送され、本体制御部１０６から指示された枚数分、入出金口２１に紙幣が搬送された後、一時保管庫４０から紙幣を繰出し、搬送路５０１ｌ、５０１ｋ、５０１ｉ、５０１ｈ、９０１ｅを通って、リジェクト庫６０に搬送される。入出金口２１は上部に開口部とシャッタを有しており、出金処理が終了したら、シャッタを開いて、利用者に紙幣を放出する。 Note that the banknotes determined to be abnormal by the banknote determination unit 31 are temporarily transported to the temporary storage 40 through the banknote transport paths 501i, 501k, 501l, and the number of sheets instructed by the main body control unit 106. After the banknotes are transported to the deposit / withdrawal port 21, the banknotes are fed out from the temporary storage 40 and transported to the reject store 60 through the transport paths 501l, 501k, 501i, 501h, and 901e. The deposit / withdrawal port 21 has an opening and a shutter in the upper part, and when the dispensing process is completed, the shutter is opened to release the banknote to the user.
　次に、図１６を用いて紙幣出金機構１から紙幣入出金機構２へ上部紙幣機構をアップグレードする場合について説明する。ハード構成としては、紙葉類取引装置は、紙幣出金機構１の出金機上部紙幣機構１ａと紙幣入出金機構２の入出金機上部紙幣機構２ａはそれぞれ連結部５１０および５１１を有し、連結部５１０および５１１は、共通の下部紙幣機構１ｂと連結できるような構造になっている。このように、出金口部と、第１判別部と、出金口部と第１判別部を接続し下方に延びる第１搬送路を搭載した上部紙葉類機構を、紙葉類を入出金する入出金口部と、紙葉類の金種、真偽及び出金適否を判別する第２判別部と、紙葉類を一時的に保管する一時保管庫と、入出金口部、第２判別部及び一時保管庫を接続し下方に延びる第２搬送路と、を搭載した上部紙幣機構に、置換可能である、或いは、紙葉類を出金する出金機構又は紙葉類を入出金する入出金機構を搭載した紙葉類取扱装置であって、出金機構は、紙葉類を出金する出金口部と、紙葉類の出金適否を判別する第１判別部と、出金口部と判別部を接続し下方に延びる第１搬送路と、を上部紙葉類機構として有し、入出金機構は、紙葉類を入出金する入出金口部と、紙葉類の金種、真偽及び出金適否を判別する第２判別部と、紙葉類を一時的に保管する一時保管庫と、入出金口部、第２判別部、一時保管庫を接続し下方に延びる第２搬送路と、を上部紙幣機構として有し、出金機構及び入出金機構は、共通の下部紙葉類機構であって、紙葉類を収納する複数の収納庫と、収納庫から搬送される紙葉類を上部紙葉類機構へ搬送する第３搬送路と、収納庫と第３搬送路を覆う金庫と、を有し、第３搬送路は、金庫の上面に設けられた穴を貫通して、第1搬送路又は第２搬送路に接続される、という構成であり、この構成により、下部機構を流用することが可能となり、入出金機構へ低コストでアップグレードすることが可能となる。さらに、出金機構と入出金機構のソフトウェアを共通にすることで、アップグレード時のソフトの入れ替えも不要となり、設定変更のみで紙葉類出金機と紙葉類入出金機のいずれにも対応することが可能となる。また、出金機構と入出金機構で共通の下部機構であるため、紙幣カセットも共通となり、アップグレードしたことによる現金運用の変更を防ぐことが可能になり、紙幣カセットの取扱いや保守方法も維持できるため効率が良い。 Next, the case where the upper bill mechanism is upgraded from the bill dispensing mechanism 1 to the bill depositing / dispensing mechanism 2 will be described with reference to FIG. As a hardware configuration, the paper sheet transaction apparatus includes a dispensing machine upper banknote mechanism 1a of the banknote dispensing mechanism 1 and a depositing / dispensing machine upper banknote mechanism 2a of the banknote depositing / dispensing mechanism 2 respectively, and includes connecting portions 510 and 511, respectively. The connection parts 510 and 511 have a structure that can be connected to the common lower bill mechanism 1b. In this manner, the upper paper sheet mechanism equipped with the first delivery path that connects the withdrawal port part, the first determination part, and the withdrawal port part to the first determination part and that extends downward is loaded and unloaded. Deposit / withdrawal port for depositing money, second discriminating unit for discriminating paper money denomination, authenticity and withdrawal suitability, temporary storage for temporarily storing paper sheets, deposit / withdrawal port, 2 The upper bill mechanism, which is connected to the discriminating unit and the second storage path connected to the temporary storage, and can be replaced, or the withdrawal mechanism or the paper sheet for dispensing the paper sheet is loaded and unloaded. A sheet handling apparatus equipped with a depositing / withdrawing mechanism for depositing, wherein the dispensing mechanism includes a dispensing port for dispensing the sheet and a first determining unit for determining whether the sheet is dispensed. And a first conveyance path that connects the dispensing port portion and the discriminating portion and extends downward as an upper paper sheet mechanism, and the deposit / withdrawal mechanism includes a deposit / withdrawal port portion for depositing / withdrawing paper sheets, and a paper sheet Kind of denomination A second discriminating unit that discriminates the authenticity and the suitability of withdrawal, a temporary storage unit that temporarily stores paper sheets, a deposit / withdrawal port unit, a second determination unit, and a temporary storage unit that are connected to each other and extend downward. And a dispensing path and a deposit / withdrawal mechanism, which are common lower paper sheet mechanisms, and are transported from a plurality of storage boxes for storing paper sheets and the storage boxes. A third transport path for transporting paper sheets to the upper paper sheet mechanism; and a safe that covers the storage and the third transport path. The third transport path passes through a hole provided on the upper surface of the safe. Then, it is configured to be connected to the first conveyance path or the second conveyance path. With this configuration, the lower mechanism can be diverted, and the deposit / withdrawal mechanism can be upgraded at a low cost. . In addition, by sharing the software of the withdrawal mechanism and the deposit / withdrawal mechanism, it is not necessary to replace the software during the upgrade, and it can be used for both paper sheet dispensing machines and paper sheet dispensing machines with only setting changes. It becomes possible to do. In addition, since it is a lower mechanism common to the withdrawal mechanism and the withdrawal / payment mechanism, the banknote cassette is also shared, it becomes possible to prevent changes in cash operation due to the upgrade, and the handling and maintenance method of the banknote cassette can be maintained. Therefore, efficiency is good.
　また、下部紙幣機構１ｂの制御部３５は、出金機上部紙幣機構１ａと入出金機上部紙幣機構２ａの搭載状態を自動で判別する。例えば、紙幣判別部３０は出金機上部紙幣機構１ａにのみ実装される機構であり、一時保管庫４０や紙幣識別部３１は入出金機上部紙幣機構２ａにのみ実装される機構である。紙幣判別部３０と制御部３５は両端にコネクタが付いたケーブルでお互い接続されており、制御部３５は、コネクタの特定のポートの信号を読み取ることで紙幣判別部３０が実装されているかどうかを判定する。制御部３５は、紙幣判別部３０が実装されていることを示す信号を受信した場合は、出金機上部紙幣機構１ａが搭載されていると判断する。同様に、一時保管庫４０や紙幣識別部３１も、それぞれ、制御部３５と両端にコネクタが付いたケーブルでお互い接続されており、制御部３５は、コネクタの特定のポートの信号を読み取ることで、一時保管庫４０や紙幣識別部３１が実装されているかどうかを判定する。制御部３５は、一時保管庫４０や紙幣識別部３１が実装されていることを示す信号を受信した場合は入出金機上部紙幣機構２ａが搭載されていると判断する。また、紙幣判別部３０、一時保管庫４０、紙幣識別部３１がいずれも未実装なら、出金機上部紙幣機構１ａと入出金機上部紙幣機構２ａがいずれも未搭載と判断することになる。このように、制御部が、上部紙葉類機構の構成情報に基づき、出金機構或いは入出金機構か判別することにより、置換後の設定作業量が低減し、アップグレード作業を迅速に完了させることが可能となる。 Moreover, the control part 35 of the lower banknote mechanism 1b automatically discriminates the mounting state of the dispensing machine upper banknote mechanism 1a and the depositing / dispensing machine upper banknote mechanism 2a. For example, the banknote discriminating unit 30 is a mechanism mounted only on the dispensing machine upper banknote mechanism 1a, and the temporary storage 40 and the banknote identification unit 31 are mechanisms mounted only on the depositing / dispensing machine upper banknote mechanism 2a. The bill discriminating unit 30 and the control unit 35 are connected to each other by a cable with connectors at both ends, and the control unit 35 reads whether a bill discriminating unit 30 is mounted by reading a signal of a specific port of the connector. judge. When the control unit 35 receives a signal indicating that the banknote discriminating unit 30 is mounted, the control unit 35 determines that the dispensing machine upper banknote mechanism 1a is mounted. Similarly, the temporary storage 40 and the banknote recognition unit 31 are also connected to the control unit 35 with cables having connectors at both ends, and the control unit 35 reads a signal from a specific port of the connector. Then, it is determined whether or not the temporary storage 40 or the bill recognition unit 31 is mounted. When the control unit 35 receives a signal indicating that the temporary storage 40 or the bill identifying unit 31 is mounted, the control unit 35 determines that the depositing / dispensing machine upper bill mechanism 2a is mounted. Moreover, if all the banknote discrimination | determination part 30, the temporary storage 40, and the banknote identification part 31 are not mounted, it will judge that all of the payment machine upper banknote mechanism 1a and the depositing / withdrawing machine upper banknote mechanism 2a are not mounted. In this way, the control unit determines whether it is a withdrawal mechanism or a deposit / withdrawal mechanism based on the configuration information of the upper paper sheet mechanism, so that the amount of setting work after replacement is reduced and the upgrade operation can be completed quickly. Is possible.
