The bill insertion slot 104 and the wrapping coin outlet 107 are positioned as openings on the front face of the change machine 101 so that the user can conveniently insert the bill and receive the wrapping coin.

FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a configuration example of the wrapping coin processing machine 106 built in the change machine 101.
The wrapping coin processor 106 includes a feeding unit 204 and a wagon unit 209, and the feeding unit 204 and the wagon unit 209 are arranged in front and rear as viewed from the user side. The wrapping coin processor 106 includes a control unit (not shown) that operates each part of the feeding unit 204 and the wagon unit 209.

  The wagon part 209 is arranged by stacking two or more trays 212 having the same structure in the vertical direction, and the tray 212 is used for storing the wrapping coins 207 packaged by denomination and facing the feeding part 204. Includes a medium information unit 211 for indicating the denomination of the loaded wrapping coin 207. On the tray 212, there are a horizontal line of wrapping coins 207 which are stacked in the form of a bar by overlapping the same denomination coins of 500 yen coins, 100 yen coins, 50 yen coins, 10 yen coins, 5 yen coins and 1 yen coins. It is loaded side by side. In addition, a fullness detection sensor 222 that detects that the wrapping coins 207 are fully loaded in each tray 212 is provided on the side of each tray 212 farthest from the feeding unit 204.

  The medium information unit 211 is a recording medium on which information indicating the type of the wrapping coins 207 set on the tray 212 is recorded, and is provided at the tip of each tray 212. Further, each tray 212 has a structure of the same shape that can be disposed at any position in the wagon 209.

  The feeding unit 204 is a mechanism unit that conveys the wrapping coins 207 stored in the tray 212 to the wrapping coin outlet 107, and includes a bucket 206 and a bucket lifting / lowering motor 208. The bucket 206 stores the wrapping coins 207 stored in the tray 212 and transports them to the wrapping coin outlet 107 from which the user takes out the wrapping coins 207. The bucket 206 is arranged at a position that closes a space formed between the inside of the feeding unit 204 and the outlet shutter 205 when the wrapping coin 207 is not being conveyed. The bucket 206 has a rectangular parallelepiped shape with an open top surface, and moves up and down in the feeding portion 204 along the guide rail 214 in the up-and-down motion direction 202 of the bucket portion. The bucket 206 is raised in the feeding unit 204 by the bucket lifting / lowering motor 208 and the driving belt 219, and is lowered by gravity.

  The bucket 206 is fixed at a predetermined stop position by a lock mechanism 218 including a lock portion that is driven via a rod 223 by a solenoid 220 or a lever 221.

  A slit rail 216 indicating the reading position of the medium information unit 211 and the feeding stop position of the bucket 206 is attached to the wagon unit 209 side of the feeding unit 204. The feeding unit 204 includes an encoder 215 having a rotatable roller shape. The encoder 215 is in contact with the bucket lifting / lowering motor 208 and rotates while synchronizing with the vertical movement of the bucket 206. The feeding arm 210 is provided inside the bucket 206, has a T-shape, and has a structure that can rotate in an arc shape like the feeding arm movable direction 203. The wrapping coins 207 loaded in the tray 212 are transferred to the bucket 206. Feed out.

  The take-out shutter 205 is a take-out shutter from which the user takes out the wrapping coins 207 conveyed by the bucket 206. The take-out shutter 205 is provided at the uppermost position of the bucket movable range on the upper surface of the feeding unit 204, and the shutter opening / closing direction is set so that the user can take out the wrapping coins 207 fed from each tray 212 from the bucket 206. As shown by 201, it opens and closes in the horizontal direction. The extraction detection sensor 217 is provided in the vicinity of the outlet shutter 205 and detects the presence / absence of the wrapping coin 207 in the bucket 206 and manual insertion into the outlet. A tray denomination barcode detection sensor 213 is provided on the side of the bucket 206 on the side of the wagon 209, reads information in the medium information unit 211 provided in each tray 212, and stops the bucket 206 that moves up and down in the extended position. The empty state of the wrapping coin 207 is detected.

  The reject collection box 224 stores the packaging coin 207 when the packaging coin 207 fed to the bucket 206 is abnormal. If it is determined that the wrapping coins 207 fed to the bucket 206 are abnormal based on the reject recovery conditions stored in the storage unit (not shown), the wrapping coins 207 are rejected from the bucket 206 by the reject recovery means (not shown). It is conveyed to.

  The wrapping coin processing machine 106 moves the bucket 206 whose initial position is at the upper end position of the feeding unit 204 to the lower end position as a pre-feeding preparatory operation at the time of dispensing. During the downward movement of the bucket 206, the tray denomination barcode detection sensor 213 reads information in the medium information unit 211 provided in the tray 212, and a storage unit (not shown) is read by the tray denomination barcode detection sensor 213. Based on the stored information, the type of the wrapping coin 207 loaded in each tray 212 is stored. In order to pay out the wrapping coin 207 from the tray 212 loaded with the wrapping coin 207 of the denomination to be withdrawn based on the information stored in the storage unit (not shown) in accordance with the withdrawal instruction from the change machine 101. The bucket lifting / lowering motor 208 is driven, the bucket 206 is raised, and the tray 212 loaded with the denomination to be fed is aligned and stopped.

Here, the feeding means will be described with reference to a side view and a plan view of the bucket 206 in FIG.
FIG. 3 shows a state in which the tray 212 is pulled out to the feeding position of the bucket portion 206 after the bucket 206 is stopped. After the tray 212 stops at the feeding position of the bucket 206, the storage state discriminating means determines whether the wrapping coin 207 is in accordance with the detection results of the tray tip posture detection sensor A305, the tray tip posture detection sensor B306, and the tray tip posture detection sensor C307. Determine the storage state. The determination of the storage state is to determine whether or not the wrapping coin 207 is in a normal posture. The tray 212 has sensor detection holes at positions corresponding to the tip posture detection sensors A305, B306, and C307. When the storage state determination unit determines that the wrapping coin 207 in the tray 212 is in a normal posture (can be fed out), the wrapping coin 207 is fed out by the feeding arm 210. The case where it is determined that feeding is possible is a case where all of the tip posture detection sensors A305, B306, and C307 are detected. That is, when the posture of the wrapping coin 207 is inclined with respect to the storing direction and at least one of the tip posture detection sensors is not detected, it is not determined that the wrapping coin 207 can be paid out.

  After the wrapping coins 207 are fed out to the bucket 206, the residue detection means is based on the detection results of the residue detection sensor A311, the residue detection sensor B312, the residue detection sensor C313, and the residue detection sensor D314, and the presence or absence of the package coins 207. A state is discriminate | determined and it is discriminate | determined whether the packaging coin 207 in the bucket 206 is a normal attitude | position. When it is determined that the wrapping coin 207 in the bucket 206 is in a normal posture by the residual detection means, the storage state determination means determines the posture of the wrapping coin 207 in the tray 212 again. Then, the next wrapping coin 207 is fed out by the feeding arm 210. When it is determined by the residual detection means that the wrapping coin 207 in the bucket 206 is inclined with respect to the storing direction, the wrapping coin feeding means automatically reduces the feeding speed of the next wrapping coin 207. When the wrapping coins 207 are discharged to the bucket 206, the wrapping coins 207 in an inclined state with respect to the storing direction are corrected to a normal posture by rolling them out from just below the discharge port 315.

  The bucket 206 is provided with a feeding arm lower position detection sensor 302, a feeding arm cam position detection sensor 303, and a feeding arm upper position detection sensor 304 for detecting the position of the feeding arm 210. Based on the detection result, the feeding arm 210 is operated.

  The wrapping coin processor 106 puts the loaded wrapping coin 207 on the upper end of the feeding arm 210, and feeds the wrapping coin 207 by starting the feeding motor 301. However, in the initial feeding operation, the wrapping coin processing machine 106 erroneously puts on the feeding arm 210. When two wrapping coins 207 are placed, the two pick-up detection sensor 308 detects it and conveys both of the wrapping coins 207 to the reject recovery box 224 by a reject recovery means (not shown). . In addition, a wrapping coin outer diameter detection sensor 309 that detects the outer diameter of the wrapping coin 207 and a wrapping coin hole detection sensor 310 that detects the presence or absence of the hole in the wrapping coin 207 are disposed in the conveyance path of the wrapping coin 207. In response to detection by the sensor, a transport state determination unit that determines the transport state of the wrapping coin 207 determines whether or not the wrapping coin 207 is a designated denomination.

  In this embodiment, in order to detect the storage state of the wrapping coin 207, the residual detection sensors A311, B312, C313, and D314 are arranged as shown in FIG. 3, but depending on the detection target and the state to be detected, these The number and arrangement of sensors may be changed.

  FIG. 4 is a processing table showing the four pairs of sensor states and the storage state of the wrapping coins 207 in the bucket 206. As shown in the processing table, when the sensor states of all four pairs of sensors are light-transmitting, or when the sensor state of only the residual detection sensor D314 is light-shielded, it is stored in advance in a storage unit (not shown) in FIG. Based on the processing table, the residual detection means determines that the wrapping coin 207 is in an inclined state with respect to the storage direction. Based on the determination result, the control unit (not shown) switches the feeding motor 301 to the low speed rotation, and feeds the next feeding wrapping coin 207 with the feeding arm 210 to make a determination again. In addition, when it is determined that the wrapping coin 207 is in an inclined state, the bucket 206 is controlled to generate vibration by the vibration generating means.

  When the wrapping coin 207 fed to the bucket 206 is in a normal posture, it is loaded and stored in the bucket 206 as indicated by the dotted line X in FIG. 3, so at least any of the residual detection sensors A311, B312 and C313 Such a sensor is shielded from light. Therefore, in such a state, it can be considered that the wrapping coin 207 fed to the bucket 206 is in a normal posture. On the other hand, when the wrapping coin 207 fed to the bucket 206 is not in a normal posture (for example, when the wrapping coin 207 fed is in a standing state), as indicated by a two-dot chain line X ′ in FIG. Even though none of the residual detection sensors A311, B312 and C313 is shielded from light, only the residual detection sensor D314 is shielded from light. Therefore, in such a state, the wrapping coins 207 fed to the bucket 206 cannot be said to be normally stored. Therefore, the speed of the feeding motor 301 is switched, vibration is applied to the bucket 206, and the packaging is started. The coin 207 is brought into a normal posture. Even when all of the residual detection sensor A 311, the residual detection sensor B 312, the residual detection sensor C 313, and the residual detection sensor D 314 are light-transmitting, it can be considered in the same manner as when only the residual detection sensor D 314 is shielded from light.

  In other words, the wrapping coin 207 fed to the bucket 206 is in a posture that none of these sensors detect (for example, a posture in which the fed wrapping coin 207 is in a standing state) and is normally stored. Therefore, the speed of the feeding motor 301 is switched, the bucket 206 is vibrated, and the wrapping coin 207 is brought into a normal posture.

  The vibration generating operation of the vibration generating means will be described with reference to FIG. The wrapping coin processor 106 moves the bucket 206 up and down like the bucket unit up-and-down operation direction 202 by the bucket lifting motor 208 and the drive belt 219. By this operation, vibration is applied to the bucket 206. Since the bucket 206 is vibrated by the existing bucket lifting motor 208 and the drive belt 219, it is not necessary to provide a new mechanism for imparting vibration, which contributes to the compactness of the apparatus. In this operation, when the slanting posture is not collapsed, the wrapping coins 207 stored in the bucket 206 are conveyed to the reject collection box 224 by a reject collection unit (not shown), and the dispensing operation is repeated from the beginning.

  In the description of the present embodiment, the description has been given of determining the storage state of the packaged coin 207 fed to the bucket 206 using the residual detection sensors 311 to 314 which are four pairs of transmission sensors. The invention is not limited to the transmission sensor, and can be applied to, for example, a device using a contact sensor provided on the inner surface side of the bucket 206. In addition, although a low-cost vibration generation method in which the bucket 206 is moved up and down as the vibration generation means has been shown, a separate vibration generation means or vibration application means is provided to adjust the magnitude of vibration. May be.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating the entire transaction flow of the change machine 101 and the wrapping coin processor 106 by dividing the flow into the change machine operation flow (501) and the wrapping coin processor operation flow (502). The change machine 101 displays a guidance and allows the user to select a currency exchange transaction content that is a content such as the amount of money, denomination, etc. that the user wants to exchange (505). In addition, the change machine 101 issues an operation instruction 1 (503) to the wrapping coin processing machine 106 so as to prepare for withdrawal in advance. The wrapping coin processor 106 receives the operation instruction 1 (503) and prepares for the dispensing operation (510).

  The change machine 101 causes the user to insert a principal for exchange according to the selected content (506). After allowing the user to input a money exchange fee (507), the change machine 101 performs a withdrawal / release operation on the wrapping coin processing machine 106 in order to dispense / release the packaged coin (508). The operation instruction 2 (504) is issued. The wrapping coin processor 106 dispenses and releases the wrapping coin 207 to the user (511), and the user receives the wrapping coin 207 from the change machine (509).

  6 shows the withdrawal of the wrapping coin processor 106 when receiving the operation instruction 2 (504 in FIG. 5) including information on the denomination and number of the wrapping coins 207 to be released to the user from the change machine 101. It is a figure for demonstrating discharge operation | movement (511) further in detail.

  When receiving the operation instruction 2 (504), the wrapping coin processor 106 moves the bucket 206 to the lower end position, and stores the information stored in the medium information unit 211 in the storage unit (not shown) in the storage unit (not shown). Based on the information stored in the storage unit (information on the denomination of the wrapping coin 207 loaded in each tray 212), the tray 212 from which the wrapping coin 207 is fed is determined (601). The wrapping coin processor 106 moves the bucket 206 to the tray 212 determined in 601 (602). The packaging coin processor 106 determines the length of the packaging coin 207 in the tray 212 (603).

  When the wrapping coin processor 106 determines that the length of the wrapping coin 207 is abnormal as a result of the determination in step 603 (the length different from the length of the wrapping coin 207 that should be loaded in the tray 212 determined in 601). ), The feeding process is stopped and the tray 213 moves to another tray 212 stored in 601. When it is determined that the length of the wrapping coin 207 to be taken out is normal (the wrapping coin 207 having the same length as the length of the wrapping coin 207 that should have been loaded in the tray 212 determined in 601 is loaded, If so, the posture of the wrapping coin 207 in the tray 212 is determined (604). The length of the wrapping coin 207 is stored in advance in a storage unit (not shown) for each denomination. If the length of the wrapping coin 207 matches the length of the extracted wrapping coin 207, it is determined to be normal.

  If the wrapping coin 207 is tilted as a result of the determination in step 604, the bucket 206 is moved up and down to perform a vibration generating operation (605). Again, the wrapping coin processor 106 determines the posture of the wrapping coin 207 (606). When the inclined posture of the wrapping coin 207 is not lost, the wrapping coin processor 106 moves to the position of another tray 212 loaded with the wrapping coin 207 of the same denomination based on the information stored in the storage unit 601. (602). If it is determined in step 604 that the posture of the wrapping coin 207 to be taken out is normal, the wrapping coin processor 106 feeds the necessary number of wrapping coins 207 by the feeding arm 210 (607). The number of the wrapping coins 207 that can be fed out from the tray 212 by one feeding operation is one. The wrapping coin processing machine 106 stores the denomination and position information of the tray 212 from which the wrapping coins 207 are drawn out in 607 in a storage unit (not shown) (608), and performs withdrawal with reference to the stored position information from the next time.

  Each time the wrapping coin processor 106 feeds one wrapping coin 207 from the tray 212 in 607, it determines whether or not the feeding of the number of wrapping coins 207 instructed by the change vending machine 101 has been completed (609). If not completed, it is further determined whether or not the tray 212 is empty (610). If the result of determination in step 610 is that there is no empty state, the process returns to step 603 to continue the feeding operation. On the other hand, in the case of an empty state, the process returns to 601 to determine the feeding position. As a result of the determination in step 609, when the feeding from the tray 212 is completed, it is determined whether or not the feeding has been completed for all the number of wrapping coins 207 requested from the change machine 101 (611). If the result of determination in step 611 is that the feeding process has not been completed, the process returns to 601 to determine the feeding position. When the feeding is completed from all trays 212, the bucket 206 from which the wrapping coins 207 are taken out moves to the upper end position, and the bucket 206 is locked by the lock mechanism 218 (612). Finally, the wrapping coin 207 is discharged (613).

  FIG. 7 illustrates the wrapping coin feeding operation (607) of the wrapping coin processor 106 that feeds the wrapping coin 207 from the tray 212 to the bucket 206 by the feeding arm 210. FIG.

  When receiving the instruction for the wrapping coin feeding operation (607), the wrapping coin processor 106 feeds one wrapping coin 207 from the tray 212 to the bucket 206 (701). The wrapping coin processing machine 106 determines the posture of the wrapping coin 207 drawn out in 701 based on the processing table of FIG. 4 and the detection results of the residual detection sensor A311, the residual detection sensor B312, the residual detection sensor C313, and the residual detection sensor D314. A determination is made (702). If the result of the determination in step 702 is that the wrapping coin 207 is inclined with respect to the storing direction, the wrapping coin processing machine 106 determines that 2 based on the required wrapping coin denomination and number stored in the storage unit (not shown). It is determined whether or not the main wrapping coin 207 is fed out (703). If the posture of the wrapping coin 207 is normal as a result of the determination in step 702, the wrapping coin feeding operation (607) is completed. If the second wrapping coin 207 is paid out as a result of the determination in step 703, the wrapping coin processing machine 106 switches the feeding speed of the wrapping coin feeding means to a low speed (704) by the control unit (not shown). One wrapping coin 207 is fed from the tray 212 to the bucket 206 (705). By feeding the wrapping coin 207 at a low speed, when the wrapping coin 207 is fed to the bucket 206, the wrapping coin 207 is fed so as to roll from directly under the discharge port 315 and is stored in the bucket 206. You can correct your posture.

  The wrapping coin processing machine 106 determines the posture of the wrapping coin 207 fed out in 705 based on the processing table of FIG. 4 and the detection results of the residual detection sensor A311, the residual detection sensor B312, the residual detection sensor C313, and the residual detection sensor D314. The determination is made again (706). As a result of the determination in step 706, if the wrapping coins are slanted with respect to the storing direction even at low speed feeding, or if the second wrapping coin 207 is not fed out as a result of the determination in step 703, the bucket 206 is The bucket is moved up and down to perform a bucket vibration operation (708). Again, the packaging coin processor 106 discriminates the attitude of the packaging coin 207 as in step 706 (709). As a result of the determination in step 709, if the wrapping coin 207 is inclined with respect to the storing direction, the wrapping coin 207 stored in the bucket 206 is conveyed to the reject recovery box 224 by a reject recovery means (not shown) ( 710), the dispensing operation is redone from the beginning based on the required wrapping coin denomination / number stored in the storage unit (not shown) (711). As a result of the determination in step 706 or 709, when the posture of the fed out wrapping coin 207 is normal, the wrapping coin processing machine 106 returns the feeding speed of the wrapping coin feeding means to a high speed (707) by a control unit (not shown). ), And completes the packaging coin feeding operation (607).

  As described above, the storage state of the wrapping coin 207 can be determined by providing a plurality of transmission sensors in the bucket 206 and detecting the wrapping coin 207 stored in the bucket 206.

  Further, when it is determined that the wrapping coin 207 stored in the bucket 206 is inclined with respect to the storing direction as a result of the determination by the storage state determining means, the feeding speed of the wrapping coin 207 is reduced. The posture of the wrapping coin 207 is corrected by feeding out the wrapping coin 207. The storage state of the wrapping coin 207 is determined again. If it is determined that the wrapping coin 207 is in an oblique state, the bucket 206 is vibrated, and the storage state of the wrapping coin 207 is determined again. If it is determined that the wrapping coin 207 is in an oblique state, the posture of the wrapping coin 207 in the oblique state is automatically corrected by rejecting and re-starting the withdrawal operation and stored in the bucket 206. The remaining detection of the wrapping coin 207 can be correctly detected, so that the end user forgets to remove the wrapping coin correctly, and the number of withdrawals of the bucket 206 is satisfied.

  As described above, the storage state of the wrapping coin 207 stored in the bucket 206 is determined, and the orientation of the wrapping coin 207 is automatically aligned, so that the wrapping coin 207 stored in the bucket 206 is correctly detected as a residue. This makes it possible to correctly detect the end user forgetting to remove the wrapping coins, and to satisfy the capacity of the withdrawal amount of the bucket 206. In the description of the present embodiment, the wrapping coin processing machine 106 incorporated in the change machine 101 is described as an example. However, the present invention is not limited to the wrapping coin processing machine 106. The present invention can also be applied to an apparatus configured to feed media one by one to the bucket 206.
