Abstract: Provided are a medium handling apparatus and method for, by using a temporary storage unit, performing a tallying task in an automated teller machine. The medium handling apparatus includes a deposit/withdrawal unit configured to separate each individual medium and accumulate the medium, a discrimination unit configured to discriminate whether the media are abnormal and types of the media, a medium storage unit including a plurality of recycling cassettes, a temporary storage unit configured to temporarily store media discriminated as normal media, and a conveyance path configured to convey the media. Media in each of the recycling cassettes are temporarily stored in the temporary storage unit to confirm the number of media remaining in the recycling cassette, and the media in the temporary storage unit are conveyed back to and stored in the recycling cassette when the number of remaining media is sensed.

Abstract: The purpose of the present disclosure is to provide a banknote processing device that may separate and process normal banknotes and rejected banknotes during replenishment/collection and easily confirm the number of replenished or collected normal banknotes.

Abstract: Provided is a method of stacking media in a media storage unit, which includes: receiving information about a length of a medium entering a media storage unit; calculating a delay time of a stopper corresponding to the length of the medium; and applying a delay time of the stopper calculated for each medium entering the media storage unit to differentially control activation of the stopper for each medium.

Abstract: A bill storage unit of an automated teller machine according to an embodiment includes: a lower cassette and an upper cassette which have bills stored therein and are vertically stacked; an external control board disposed outside the lower cassette and the upper cassette to perform power supply and communication signal transmission to the lower cassette and the upper cassette; first and second internal control boards electrically connected to the external control board and disposed inside the lower cassette and the upper cassette to perform power supply and communication signal transmission to each of components inside the lower cassette and components inside the upper cassette; a plurality of connectors interconnected to electrically connect the external control board and the first and second internal control boards; and a position alignment means configured to, when the upper cassette is being stacked on the lower cassette, guide the plurality of connectors to be interconnected at correct positions.

Abstract: An automated teller machine includes: a bundle storage unit into which a bundle of paper mediums are input and which separates the bundle of paper mediums into individual sheets and conveys the paper mediums individually; a paper medium alignment unit that aligns and conveys the paper mediums conveyed individually from the bundle storage unit; a discrimination unit that discriminates the aligned paper mediums conveyed individually from the paper medium alignment unit; a normal banknote temporary holding unit that temporarily holds normal banknotes discriminated in the discrimination unit and conveyed individually; and a rejected banknote temporary holding unit that temporarily holds rejected banknotes discriminated in the discrimination unit and conveyed individually.

Abstract: A medium storage device includes: a housing frame having, at a front portion, an entrance for replenishment and recovery to which a transit cassette is connectable, an identification unit serving to identify whether a medium is a normal medium or a rejection medium, a temporary holding unit configured to temporarily accommodate a medium, a recycle cassette configured to store the medium identified as the normal medium, a conveyance path configured to convey the medium between the identification unit, the temporary holding unit, and the recycle cassette, and a control unit configured to control the conveyance path such that the medium replenished from the transit cassette is conveyed to the temporary holding unit, the medium transferred to the temporary holding unit is conveyed to the identification unit, and the medium identified as the normal medium in the identification unit is conveyed to the recycle cassette.

Abstract: Provided is a cassette holder for an automated teller machine. An embodiment of the cassette holder for the automated teller machine includes a first holding part configured to hold a first cassette having a predetermined volume, and a second holding part in which the first holding part is connected to an inner side thereof, and configured to hold a second cassette having a larger volume than the first cassette, wherein the first holding part is moved in a front-rear direction between a first position in which the first holding part is positioned at a front side of the second holding part to hold the first cassette on the first holding part and a second position in which the first holding part is positioned at a rear side of the second holding part to hold the second cassette on the second holding part.

Abstract: A method of communication between a host of an automated teller machine and a device. The process is performed as a result of sensor polling which the host periodically performs to check a state of a device. The process is simplified by employing an interrupt communication scheme in which an interrupt signal for notifying that a change of a sensor value occurs in the device is transmitted from a device to a host. This simplification reduces USB traffic that occurs during a process of communication between the host of the automated teller machine and the device, thereby reducing a load that is applied to a communication hardware chip of the automated teller machine. As a result, the frequency with which a communication failure occurs is decreased, thereby achieving the effect of providing support for seamless communication.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to providing to a bundle module of a medium deposit device capable of not only arranging leading ends of rejected bill media which are returned to the bundle module but also preventing collision between a leading medium and a following medium and a jam occurrence of the media according to the collision.

Abstract: A medium storage device includes a safe having at a front portion a first entrance for replenishment and recovery to which a first transit cassette is selectively connected and at a rear portion a second entrance for replenishment and recovery to which a second transit cassette is selectively connected; an identification unit serving to identify whether the medium is a normal medium or a rejection medium; a recycle cassette configured to accommodate the medium recognized as the normal medium; a conveyance path configured to convey the medium between the first entrance, the second entrance, the identification unit, and the recycle cassette; and a control unit is configured to control the conveyance path such that the medium accommodated in the first transit cassette is conveyed to the identification unit, and the medium identified as the normal medium in the identification unit is conveyed to the recycle cassette.

Abstract: A medium conveyance route switching device includes: a support unit located at a branching point where conveyance directions of a medium converge in three directions; a gate assembly including a plurality of gates to guide at the branching point the medium to different conveyance paths; and a rotation mechanism configured to selectively rotate the plurality of gates.
