Thus, the exchange from the foreign currency or the exchange from the foreign currency to the foreign currency can be executed.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to an automatic currency exchange device, and particularly to an offline foreign currency exchange device that performs foreign currency exchange, which is exchange between foreign currencies. [Prior Art] Conventional currency exchange devices can only exchange currency in one's own country, so exchange into or out of foreign currency can only be done at limited locations such as financial institution counters, hotels, airports, etc. , which was performed manually in a limited amount of time. [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] The above-mentioned conventional automatic currency exchange device has the disadvantage that it is only possible to exchange the domestic currency, and cannot exchange foreign currency, from foreign currency, or from foreign currency to foreign currency. Ta. [Means for Solving the Problems] The offline currency exchange device of the present invention includes an exchange rate table storing exchange rates corresponding to handled currencies, an exchange rate input section for manually inputting exchange rates from the outside, and an input exchange rate. an exchange rate table rewriting unit that rewrites the exchange rate table into the exchange rate table, an exchange information register that stores information for exchange, an exchange rate conversion table search unit that searches the exchange rate table according to currency name information, and information for exchange an input section for inputting the currency to be converted into cash, a cash input/output for inputting the currency to be exchanged and discharging the paid currency after conversion, and a cash input/output for checking input information from the input section and information on the currency input from the cash input/output. Check section and
a payment amount calculation unit that calculates the payment amount according to the input conversion amount information and the exchange rate information from the searched exchange rate table; a currency box that stores currencies by type; and a conversion unit that calculates the payment amount from the input unit. a currency box selection unit that selects the currency box based on the currency name information and the calculated payment amount; and a cash payment processing unit that releases currency corresponding to the payment amount from the selected currency box to the cash input/outlet. has. [Example] Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings. Figure 3 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of the present invention. The input unit 10 is where information such as the currency name and amount to be exchanged is input. The cash inlet/outlet 20 is where the currency to be converted into cash is inserted and the converted currency 17 is paid. The currency box group 50 includes a plurality of boxes corresponding to the types of currencies handled. PA, 5
0a is "yen", 50b is "dollar J", 50C is "bond"
This is the part that stores each specified currency, such as. The deposit check section 3l is a section that reads the money inserted from the cash input/output port 20 according to the currency name and exchange amount information inputted from the input section 10, and checks whether the designated amount and the inserted amount match. . Cash payment processing section 32
According to the input data confirmed by the deposit check/7 check unit 31, the currency corresponding to the payment amount calculated by the exchange amount calculation unit 40 is sent to the currency box group 5 via the currency box selection unit 33.
This is the part that processes the sending from the corresponding currency box of 0 to the cash input/output port 20. The exchange rate table 60 is a section that stores exchange rates input from the exchange rate input section 80 as a table. The exchange rate table rewriting section 70 is a section that rewrites the exchange rate table 60 with the exchange rate input by the exchange rate input section 80. The cash exchange information register 41 is the cash payment processing section 3
This is the part that temporarily stores the currency name and exchange amount information from 2. The exchange rate conversion table search unit 42 receives the currency name from the exchange information register 41 and searches the exchange rate table 60.
This section specifies the exchange rate storage address corresponding to the corresponding currency name, searches for conversion rate information, and provides it to the payment amount calculation section 43. Payment amount calculation section 4
Reference numeral 3 denotes a section that calculates the payment amount by inputting the exchange amount information given by the exchange rate conversion table search section 42 and provides the calculated amount to the cash payment processing section 32. Next, we will explain the operation. First, in order to input the exchange rate that is the exchange rate for exchanging money between foreign currencies into this device, the exchange rate is input from the exchange rate input section 80, and the exchange rate is input through the exchange rate table rewriting section 70. The contents of the table 60 are rewritten. This allows the device to be used by the user. The user of this device sets the currency to be exchanged into the cash inlet/outlet 20, and inputs the name of the exchanged currency and the exchanged amount from the input section 10. Receiving this information, the deposit check section 31 checks whether the amount deposited from the cash input/output port 20 and the amount specified from the input section 10 are the same, and if it is confirmed that they are the same, the deposit check section 31 receives this information. is provided to the cash payment processing unit 32. The cash payment processing section 32 transfers this information to the exchange information register 4l of the exchange amount calculation section 40 for calculating the exchange amount. Among the information set in the exchange information register 41, currency name information is transferred to the exchange rate conversion table search section 42. The exchange rate conversion table search section 42 determines the address on the exchange rate table 60 corresponding to the currency name, reads out exchange rate information corresponding to the currency name, and transfers it to the payment amount calculation section 43. On the other hand, the payment amount calculation unit 43 calculates the payment amount from the exchange amount information in the exchange information register 4l and the exchange rate information. The payment amount that is the result of this calculation is transferred to the cash payment processing section 32. The cash payment processing section 32 selects a currency box group 50 using the currency box selection section 33 according to the currency name of the exchange amount information provided from the deposit checking section 31, and cashes the currency equivalent to the payment amount from the currency box. The operation is completed by discharging it to the outside from the inlet/outlet 20.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention has the effect of expanding opportunities for foreign currency exchange by adding a foreign currency exchange function to an automatic currency exchange device.
