Based on the program and initial data, display control of the display unit 22 and drive control of the banknote transport mechanism 18 are performed.

  The deposit / withdrawal control unit 41 performs the deposit process of the banknote according to the deposit permission instruction when the banknote is inserted after the deposit permission instruction is given from the POS register apparatus 2, and the withdrawal instruction is given from the POS register apparatus 2 When issued, the banknote withdrawal process is performed in accordance with the withdrawal instruction. In addition, the deposit / withdrawal control unit 41 sequentially stores the contents of the deposited process and the withdrawal process performed as the deposit / withdrawal information 31 in the storage unit 30 while executing the deposit process and the withdrawal process. Do. In addition, the deposit / withdrawal control unit 41 performs cash management.

  The banknote exchange mode selection units 23a and 53a store the deposited banknotes in the collection box 13 that only collects the collected banknotes as change, and then stores the banknotes of the same amount as the deposited banknotes from the banknote storage box 17. It is a button for selecting a banknote exchange mode for exchanging a deposited banknote and an unstained banknote by withdrawing money.

  The deposited banknote collection mode selection units 23b and 53b are buttons for selecting a deposited banknote collection mode that is stored in the collection box 13 where only the collected banknotes are collected without being collected as change.

  When the banknote exchange mode is selected and the deposited banknote is a genuine coin, the mode control unit 42 stores the deposited banknote in the collection box 13 that only collects the collected banknote as a change, Thereafter, the banknote storage mechanism 10 is controlled so that a banknote having the same amount as the deposited banknote is withdrawn from the banknote storage 17, and the deposited banknote is exchanged. Further, when the deposited banknote collection mode is selected and the deposited banknote is a genuine coin, the mode control unit 42 does not withdraw the deposited banknote as change, and only collects the collected banknote. The bill storage mechanism 10 is controlled so as to be stored.

(Bill exchange mode processing)
Next, the banknote exchange mode process by the control unit 40 will be described. FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the banknote exchange mode processing procedure by the control unit 40. As shown in FIG. 4, the mode control unit 42 first determines whether or not the bill exchange mode is selected by pressing the bill exchange mode selection unit 23a or the bill exchange mode selection unit 53a (step S101). . When the banknote exchange mode is selected (step S101, Yes), the mode control unit 42 further determines whether or not the discriminating unit 16 determines that the deposited banknote is a genuine coin (step). S102).

  When it is determined that the deposited banknote is a genuine coin (Yes in step S102), the mode control unit 42 controls the banknote transport mechanism 18 to transport the deposited banknote to the collection box 13. Store (step S103).

  Thereafter, the mode control unit 42 controls the banknote transport mechanism 18 based on the denomination determined by the discrimination unit 16, transports a banknote having the same amount as the deposited banknote from the banknote storage 17, and withdraws the money. Withdrawing money from the banknote payout exit 12 via the unit 15 (step S104). As a result, the deposited banknotes are exchanged.

  Thereafter, the deposit / withdrawal control unit 41 updates the deposit / withdrawal information 31 (step S105), ends the processing, and repeats the above-described processing.

  On the other hand, when the banknote exchange mode is not selected (step S101, No), this process is terminated and the above-described process is repeated. When it is determined that the deposited banknote is not a genuine coin (No at Step S102), the deposited banknote is returned from the banknote insertion slot 11 via the depositing unit 14 (Step S106), and this processing is performed. And the above-described processing is repeated.

  For example, when the deposited banknote is a thousand-yen banknote, as shown in FIG. 5 (a), first, the authenticity and denomination of the damaged banknote are detected at the discrimination section 16 via the banknote insertion slot 11 and the depositing section 14. Is determined. When the contaminated banknote is a genuine coin, the mode control unit 42 conveys the dirty banknote from the main conveyance path L1 to the branch conveyance path L2 via the switching unit 18a, and further conveys the dirty banknote to the collection box 13 via the switching unit 18d. And store. Then, as shown in FIG.5 (b), the mode control part 42 took out the thousand yen banknote from the thousand yen banknote storage 17a which has accommodated the banknote of the money type which the discrimination part 16 discriminate | determined, and took out. The banknote is transported from the main transport path L1 to the branch transport path L2 through the switching unit 18a, further transported to the withdrawal unit 15 through the switching unit 18d, and withdrawn from the banknote dispensing outlet 12. As a result, the soiled banknote (thousand-yen banknote) that the store clerk has determined to be soiled is replaced with a thousand-yen banknote in the thousand-yen banknote storage 17a. Moreover, since the damaged banknotes are stored in the collection box 13, they are not withdrawn as change.

(Deposit bill collection mode processing)
Next, the deposited banknote collection mode process by the control unit 40 will be described. FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the deposit banknote recovery mode processing procedure by the control unit 40. As shown in FIG. 6, the mode control unit 42 first determines whether the deposited banknote collection mode is selected by pressing the deposited banknote collection mode selection unit 23 b or the deposited banknote collection mode selection unit 53 b ( Step S201). When the deposited banknote collection mode is selected (step S201, Yes), the mode control unit 42 further determines whether or not the discriminating unit 16 determines that the deposited banknote is a genuine coin ( Step S202).

  If it is determined that the deposited banknote is a genuine coin (step S202, Yes), the mode control unit 42 controls the banknote transport mechanism 18 to transport the deposited soiled banknote to the collection box 13. Store (step S203). As a result, the deposited banknotes are stored in the collection box 13 without being withdrawn.

  Thereafter, the deposit / withdrawal control unit 41 updates the deposit / withdrawal information 31 (step S204), ends the processing, and repeats the above-described processing.

  On the other hand, when the deposited banknote collection mode is not selected (No at Step S201), this process is terminated and the above-described process is repeated. If it is determined that the deposited banknote is not a genuine coin (No at Step S202), the deposited banknote is returned from the banknote insertion slot 11 via the depositing unit 14 (Step S205), and this processing is performed. And the above-described processing is repeated.

  This deposited banknote collection mode process is completed by the process shown in FIG. In this case, the authentication result determined by the discrimination unit 16 is a condition as to whether or not the damaged banknote is stored in the collection box 13. Further, the denomination determined by the discrimination unit 16 is used as deposit / withdrawal information 31.

  The selection state of the banknote exchange mode or the deposited banknote collection mode may be maintained for a predetermined time after the banknote exchange mode selection section 23a, 53a or the deposited banknote collection mode selection section 23b, 53b is pressed. The selected state may be extinguished by pressing the mode selection units 23a and 53a or the deposited banknote collection mode selection units 23b and 53b. Moreover, you may make it eliminate this maintenance of a selection state by completion | finish of a banknote exchange mode process or a banknote collection mode process. In order to maintain such a selection state, it is preferable to display that the selection state is maintained on the display unit 22 or the operation display unit 53 by, for example, LED display.

(Modification of mode control processing)
Here, when the distance between the discrimination unit 16 and the switching unit 18a is short, or when it takes time for the transfer path switching process of the switching unit 18a, the deposited banknotes are not directly transferred to the collection box 13. Alternatively, the contaminated banknote may be temporarily stored in the banknote storage box 17 and then the temporarily stored dirty banknote may be stored in the collection box 13.

  FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing a modification of the banknote exchange mode processing procedure by the control unit 40. As shown in FIG. 7, the mode control unit 42 first determines whether or not the bill exchange mode is selected by pressing the bill exchange mode selection unit 23a or the bill exchange mode selection unit 53a (step S301). . When the banknote exchange mode is selected (step S301, Yes), the mode control unit 42 further determines whether or not the discriminating unit 16 determines that the deposited banknote is a genuine coin (step). S302).

  When it is determined that the deposited banknote is a genuine coin (Yes in step S302), the mode control unit 42 controls the banknote transport mechanism 18, and based on the denomination determined by the discrimination unit 16, The deposited banknotes are temporarily stored in the banknote storage 17 other than the banknote storage 17 that stores the same amount of banknotes as the deposited banknotes (step S303). For example, when the damaged banknote is a thousand yen banknote, the damaged banknote is temporarily stored in a 5,000 yen banknote storage 17b or a 10,000 yen banknote storage 17c other than the thousand yen banknote storage 17a. This is because in the banknote exchange mode, it is necessary to take out the thousand yen banknote to be exchanged from the thousand yen banknote storage 17a.

  Thereafter, the mode control unit 42 controls the banknote transport mechanism 18 to transport a banknote having the same amount as the deposited banknote from the banknote storage 17 and withdraws it from the banknote outlet 12 through the withdrawal unit 15. (Step S304). As a result, the deposited banknotes are exchanged.

  Thereafter, the mode control unit 42 controls the banknote transport mechanism 18 to transport and store the temporarily stored soiled banknotes to the collection box 13 (step S305).

  Thereafter, the deposit / withdrawal control unit 41 updates the deposit / withdrawal information 31 (step S306), ends the process, and repeats the above-described process.

  On the other hand, when the banknote exchange mode is not selected (step S301, No), this process is terminated and the above-described process is repeated. If it is determined that the deposited banknote is not a genuine coin (No at Step S302), the deposited banknote is returned from the banknote insertion slot 11 via the depositing unit 14 (Step S307), and this processing is performed. And the above-described processing is repeated.

  For example, when the deposited banknote is a thousand-yen banknote, as shown in FIG. 8 (a), first, the authenticity and denomination of the damaged banknote at the discrimination unit 16 via the banknote insertion slot 11 and the depositing unit 14. Is determined. When the contaminated banknote is a genuine coin, the mode control unit 42 conveys the contaminated banknote as it is on the main conveyance path L1 via the switching unit 18a, and the five thousand yen banknote storage 17b other than the thousand yen banknote storage 17a. Temporary storage.

  After that, as shown in FIG. 8B, the mode control unit 42 takes out the thousand yen banknote from the thousand yen banknote storage 17a that stores the denomination banknote determined by the discrimination unit 16, and takes out the thousand yen. The banknote is transported from the main transport path L1 to the branch transport path L2 through the switching unit 18a, further transported to the withdrawal unit 15 through the switching unit 18d, and withdrawn from the banknote dispensing outlet 12.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 8 (c), the mode control unit 42 takes out the dirty banknote temporarily stored in the 5,000 yen banknote storage 17b, and converts the taken out banknote (thousand yen banknote) into the switching section 18a. Then, it is conveyed from the main conveyance path L1 to the branch conveyance path L2, and further conveyed to the collection box 13 via the switching unit 18d for storage.

  In this modified example, even when the distance between the discrimination unit 16 and the switching unit 18a is short, or even when it takes time for the conveyance path switching process of the switching unit 18a, the switching unit 18a is reliably switched. be able to. Moreover, since the banknote to be exchanged is withdrawn in preference to storing the defaced banknote, the banknote exchange process for the operator can be performed smoothly.

  In addition, the modification mentioned above is applicable also to deposit banknote collection mode processing. Specifically, the banknote exchange mode in step S301 in FIG. 7 is the deposited banknote collection mode, and the withdrawal process in step S304 is not performed. Moreover, in the specific example of the deposit banknote collection mode process shown in FIG. 8, the withdrawal process of FIG. 8B is not performed. However, in the deposited banknote collection mode process, the banknote storage 17 that is temporarily stored in step S303 of FIG. 7 or FIG. 8A may be any banknote storage 17.

  Moreover, in the embodiment and the modification described above, the damaged banknote is stored in the collection box 13, but one of the banknote storage boxes 17 may be a collection area for storing the dirty banknote. For example, the 5,000-yen banknote storage 17b shown in FIG. 2 is used as a mixed storage for storing 5,000-yen banknotes and 10,000-yen banknotes, and the 10,000-yen banknote storage 17c is used to store dirty banknotes. It is good also as a collection warehouse to do. Separately, a dedicated collection box for storing the corrupted banknotes may be newly provided.

  In the embodiment and the modification described above, the banknote exchange mode process and the deposited banknote collection mode process prevent the operator from paying out the damaged banknote recognized as the damaged banknote as change to the customer. Impression deterioration can be suppressed.

  Moreover, by applying the banknote exchange mode process, the exchanged change (banknote) can be smoothly delivered to the customer without repeating the deposit and withdrawal of the banknote.

  Furthermore, in embodiment and the modification which were mentioned above, since the sensor which discriminate | determines whether a banknote processing apparatus is a dirty banknote is not required, since the discrimination part 16 which discriminate | determines the authenticity and denomination of a banknote is used, it is easy. With the configuration, it is possible to perform processing that does not withdraw the dirty banknote as change.
