Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Summary] A paper sheet processing device is configured so that when taking in banknotes left behind at the time of withdrawal, receipts are taken in at the same time and arranged and stored so as to form a partition, To facilitate the confirmation of captured banknotes and the classification of multiple captured banknotes.

[Industrial application field]

The present invention relates to a paper sheet processing device such as an automatic teller machine (ATM), and more particularly to a mechanism for taking in banknotes left behind when withdrawing money.

This type of device is mainly a dispensing device, in which the banknotes are not actually taken out by the customer even if there is a withdrawal transaction.
It may be left alone. Therefore, in order to prevent theft in such cases, a mechanism for capturing forgotten banknotes is adopted.

Generally, if a banknote is not taken out within a certain period of time after being withdrawn from a payout port, this mechanism stops the device when the banknote is taken in. Bank employees then take out the forgotten banknotes, check them, and then store them. Therefore, this method has problems such as poor device availability and unsuitability for unmanned operation. For this reason, there is an improved device that allows the next customer to make a transaction even if a customer forgets to retrieve the item without stopping the device.

[Conventional technology]

Therefore, a conventional paper sheet processing apparatus of this type has a mechanism for taking in forgotten banknotes, as shown in FIG. 2.

That is, in the dispensing device main body 1, a bill dispensing section 2 and a receipt dispensing section 3 are provided separately. In the bill dispensing section 2, cassettes 4, 5, and 6 of 10,000 yen, 1,000 yen, and 5,000 yen are connected to a payout port 8 via a conveyance path 7, and in the middle of this conveyance path 7, primary dispensing sections 9, - Next and second discrimination sections 10, 11, etc. are provided. A take-in conveyance path 12 branches off from the conveyance path 7, and this conveyance path 12 communicates with a take-in box 13. The receipt feeding section 3 issues a receipt and takes it out or takes it in from the register 14.

As a result, when making withdrawal transactions, cassette 4.5 or 6
The banknotes are sent along a conveying path 7 like a solid line thread path and are dispensed to a dispensing port 8. On the other hand, if the dispensed banknotes are not taken out, they are fed into the box 13 after a certain period of time by being fed through the feeding path 7.12 as per the broken line thread path. Further, during the above-mentioned withdrawal, the lost money, banknotes, etc. that do not match the transaction amount, which are removed by the discrimination section 11, are also stored in the box 13.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

By the way, in the case of the above-mentioned conventional structure, since the banknotes that have been forgotten to be taken into the box 13 are simply taken in,
It is necessary to classify each bill that has been taken in multiple times based on the data on withdrawals and imports. In addition, since losses, etc. are also stored together, it is necessary to separate them from these, and there is a problem in that post-processing is complicated.

The present invention was created in view of the above points, and an object of the present invention is to provide a paper sheet processing device that can easily sort banknotes that have been taken in due to failure or damage, etc. The purpose is

[Means for solving problems]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1 corresponding to an embodiment, dispenses the receipt B from the receipt dispensing section 3 along with the bill A from the dispensing port 8 of the bill dispensing section 2.

On the other hand, the receiving box 13 is configured to separate banknotes that were forgotten to be taken in from lost money, etc., and to store them in a line with the receipts B acting as a partition.

[Effect]

Based on the above configuration, the banknotes A that have been forgotten to be taken in are stored in the take-in box 13 in a state where the banknotes A are partitioned into one batch each by the receipt B.

In this way, in the present invention, in the case of multiple intakes, each batch of banknotes is separated and stored with a receipt.
Post-processing can be greatly facilitated.

〔Example〕

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

In FIG. 1, the device main body 1, bill dispensing section 2, receipt dispensing section 3, each cassette 4.5.6, conveyance path 7.12
, the withdrawal port 8, the next payout section 9, the discrimination section 10.11, and the intake box 13 are arranged in the same manner as in FIG.

Therefore, the receipt conveying path 15 from the receipt feeding section 3
is led to withdrawal port 8. Further, a conveyance path 16 for waste money and the like branches off from the intake conveyance path 12, and a gate 17 is provided at the branch portion to switch to either one. Intake box 13
has a storage section 13a for lost money, etc. and a storage section 13b for forgotten items, and the storage section 13b stores banknotes A and receipts B.
An alignment means 18 is provided for sequentially arranging the images one batch at a time.

With the above configuration, when banknotes A are fed out to the payout port 8 at the time of withdrawal, the receipt B issued by the receipt payout unit 3 is guided to the payout port 8 via the conveyance path 15, and placed on top of the banknote A at the cash register. −
1-B is attached and delivered together. Then, the customer takes out these banknotes A and receipt B together, and the transaction is completed.

On the other hand, if you forget to withdraw money as described above, after a certain period of time, banknotes A and receipt B will be transported through the transport path 7.12 and
7 into the storage section 13b of the take-in box 13. Then, with the receipt B attached to one side of the banknotes A, the banknotes A are sequentially lined up and stored from one side of the storage section 13b by the alignment means 18. For this reason, in the case of taking in multiple times, the current receipt B is stacked on top of the previous banknote A and partitioned, and the banknotes are stacked and stored one at a time.

Also, unfit notes etc. when withdrawing money should be placed in Box 1 at Gate 17.
3 and taken into the other storage section 13a.

One embodiment of the present invention has been described above, but the storage section 13
The alignment method in b is not limited to this.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, according to the present invention, when a plurality of forgotten banknotes are sequentially retrieved in the dispensing device, the banknotes A are stored in the receptacle box 13 separated into one batch by the receipt H. There is no need to separate banknotes, making the work easier.

Receipt B will be attached to banknote A at the time of withdrawal, which is convenient for confirming the transaction.
