Publication number: 20110243422Abstract: A paper-sheet processing apparatus including a reading unit, a risk-level determining unit, and a check processing unit is provided. The reading unit reads, from a check, check information containing drawer information for identifying a drawer of the check. The risk-level determining unit acquires a transaction history associated with a check in the name of the drawer based on the drawer information read by the reading unit, and determines a risk level of the check based on a comparison result between the acquired transaction history and the check information read by the reading unit. The check processing unit processes the check based on a processing content corresponding to the risk level determined by the risk-level determining unit.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 31, 2010Publication date: October 6, 2011Inventors: Kenichi Matsuo, Koichi Nishida

Publication number: 20110137431Abstract: To reduce a burden of a person in charge who uses a valuable media management system including a plurality of valuable media handling machines having the same valuable-media processing function, and control units that correspond to the respective valuable media handling machines. Each of the valuable media handling machine has a state detecting unit for detecting the state of the valuable media handling machine. Each of the control unit has a corresponding machine control function for working the valuable media handling machine that corresponds to the own control unit, as well as a non-corresponding machine control function for working another valuable media handling machine other than the valuable media handling machine that corresponds to the own control unit. The corresponding machine control function and the non-corresponding machine control function can be switched depending on a change of the state of the valuable media handling machine detected by the state detecting unit.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 12, 2008Publication date: June 9, 2011Inventors: Kazuhiro Doi, Koichi Nishida

Publication number: 20110127286Abstract: The change replenishment management system includes a coin roll storage (1), a coin change dispenser (3), and a POS register (5). A control unit (16) of the storage (1) detects the presence and the denomination of a coin roll in a storage section of each drawer (11, 12, 13) in accordance with an output signal generated from a detection system (18), and transmits the result of detection to the coin change dispenser (3). When loose coins obtained by unpacking removed coin rolls, which are removed from the storage (1), are introduced into an inlet (30), a control unit (36 or 50) of the change dispenser (3) or register (5) compares the denomination and the number of the loose coins, which are detected by identification unit (31), with the denomination and the number of the removed coin roll determined on the basis of the detection result transmitted from the storage (1), and judging the correspondence therebetween.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 4, 2011Publication date: June 2, 2011Applicant: GLORY LTD.Inventors: Ryuichi TABATA, Hiroshi TONE, Yoshiro OIE, Takahiro WASHIZU, Mikito IMAI, Koichi NISHIDA, Tsutomu IWATA, Kazuyuki SHIMIZU, Yumiko IMAI
