Abstract: A banknote handling apparatus 100 includes: a taking-in unit 10 which takes banknotes in one by one; a transport unit 70 which transports each banknote from the taking-in unit 10; a recognition sensor 20 which obtains information related to the fitness of the banknote transported by the transport unit 70; and a memory unit 55 which stores a threshold value for an unfit note factor for determining the fitness of a banknote. A control unit 50 of apparatus 100 determines the fitness of the banknote by comparing the threshold value and a detected value of the unfit note factor based on the information obtained by the recognition sensor 20, and counts the number of times the unfit note factor has been used to determine the banknote as an unfit note. An output unit 35 outputs the unfit note factor and the number of times of reason.

Abstract: A banknote handling apparatus 100 is configured to perform a sorting process of banknotes. The banknote handling apparatus includes: a taking-in unit 10 configured to take in a banknote one by one; a transport unit 70 configured to transport the banknote having been taken in from the taking-in unit 10; a recognition unit 20 configured to recognize the banknote transported by the transport unit 70; a control unit 50 configured to control the transport unit 70, such that the banknote having been recognized by the recognition unit 20 is transported to any one of a plurality of stacking units 60a to 60h, based on a sorting pattern; and a sorting-category receiving unit 40 configured to receive at least one sorting category. The control unit 50 is configured to create the sorting pattern by deciding types of banknotes to be stacked in the respective stacking units 60a to 60h, based on the number of the stacking units 60a to 60h and the sorting category.

Abstract: A money handling apparatus includes an inlet to receive money of a plurality of different currencies, a plurality of outlets, and a control unit to control a transport unit, such that the money is sorted and delivered from the transport unit to respective outlets based on a money recognition result of a recognition unit. As such, the control unit determines whether the currencies that have been recognized by the recognition unit are assigned to any of the outlets. Thus, when the recognized currency is assigned to an outlet, the transport unit is controlled to transport the money of the associated currency to the assigned outlet. In addition, when the recognized currency is not assigned to an outlet, and if there is an outlet to which no currency is assigned, the control unit assigns the currency to such outlet and the associated money is transported to the assigned outlet.

Abstract: In a money handling apparatus 10, an inlet 21 receives money of a plurality of different currencies. A control unit 40 controls a transport unit 31 such that the money is sorted and delivered from the transport unit 31 to the outlets 23, 24 and 25 based on a money recognition result by a recognition unit 32. The control unit 40 judges whether the currency having been recognized by the recognition unit 32 is assigned to any of the outlet 23, 24 and 25. When this happens, the control unit 40 transports the money to the assigned outlet. When the currency of the money having been recognized by the recognition unit 32 is not assigned to any of the outlet 23, 24 and 25, if there is an outlet to which no currency is assigned, the control unit 40 assigns and transports the money to that outlet.

Abstract: A sort pattern creating method, for a banknote handling apparatus, comprises a step of selecting a denomination of banknote (S501), a step of selecting a print version of banknote (S502), a step of selecting a direction of banknote (S503), a step of selecting a fitness of banknote (S504), a step of creating the sort pattern by combining the contents selected in the step of selecting a denomination of banknote, a print version of banknote, a direction of banknote and a fitness of banknote (S505). The sort pattern creating method comprises a step of checking a validity of the combination of the contents, wherein the combination is valid when a type of banknote is defined to be sorted into one stacking unit, and the combination is not valid when the type of banknote is not defined to be sorted into one stacking unit.

Abstract: A banknote sorting and bundling apparatus (1) includes a stacker (16) for sorting and stacking a banknote being transported, a bundling-side stacking unit (21) for sorting and stacking a banknote of a specific banknote-kind as a bundling-object-banknote, a category setting unit (191) that sets a category of a banknote to be stacked in the stacker (16) and the bundling-side stacking unit (21), and an assignment setting unit (193) that assigns, if there is no stacking unit for which a banknote-kind of the banknote being transported is set among the stackers (16) or the bundling-side stacking units (21) for which the category of the banknote being transported has been set, the banknote-kind of the banknote being transported as the stacking banknote for a stacking unit for which no stacking banknote has been set. Therefore, the work burden for setting the stacking category and the banknote-kind for the bundling-side stacking units (21) or the stackers (16) one by one is greatly reduced.

Abstract: A received banknote processing apparatus having no temporary reserving section has a failure recovery processing unit. The failure recovery processing unit securely recovers the number of banknotes of an accepted transaction together with the determination of the fitness of the banknotes of the accepted transaction in failure recovery processing that is performed when a failure, such as a jam, occurs.
