Abstract

A cash processing device includes a cash inlet, a temporary reserving unit, storage units, a transport unit, and a control unit that controls a display of a deposit information screen, including a counting result obtained by the recognition unit, after the transport of the cash input to the cash inlet to the temporary reserving unit ends, and further configured to not instruct to open the opening and closing member when the first deposit method is selected and to instruct to open the opening and closing member when the second deposit method is selected, after receipt by the device of a confirmation that the counting result is correct, and before transport of the cash stored in the temporary reserving unit to the storage units ends.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A cash processing device comprising:
a cash inlet having an opening and closing member;
a temporary reserving unit configured to temporarily store cash;
a storage unit configured to store cash;
a recognition unit configured to discriminate cash;
a transport unit configured to, in a deposit process, transport cash input into the cash inlet to the temporary reserving unit in a state in which the opening and closing member is closed, and transport cash stored in the temporary reserving unit to the storage unit; and
a control unit configured to control a display of (1) a selection screen for selecting a first deposit method of performing an input of cash at one time in one transaction or a second deposit method ofserforming in one transaction repeated inputs of cash over a plurality of times, and (2) a deposit information screen, including a counting result obtained by the recognition unit, after the transport of the cash input to the cash inlet to the temporary reserving unit ends, and further configured to not instruct to open the opening and closing member when the first deposit method is selected and to instruct to open the opening and closing member when the second deposit method is selected, after receipt by the device of a confirmation that the counting result is correct, and before the transport of the cash stored in the temporary reserving unit to the storage unit ends.

2. The cash processing device according to claim 1 , wherein the control unit controls a display of the selection screen before a first input of cash into the cash inlet in one transaction.

3. The cash processing device according to claim 1 , wherein the control unit controls a display of the selection screen after cash input into the cash inlet first in one transaction is transported to the temporary reserving unit.

4. The cash processing device according to claim 1 , wherein, in the second deposit method, the control unit instructs to open the opening and closing member before an instruction to transport cash stored in the temporary reserving unit to the storage unit is issued.

5. The cash processing device according to claim 1 , wherein, in the second deposit method, the control unit instructs to close the opening and closing member after transport of cash stored in the temporary reserving unit to the storage unit ends.

6. The cash processing device according to claim 1 , wherein, in second and succeeding inputs of cash in the second deposit method, when an input of cash into the cash inlet is sensed after an instruction to open the opening and closing member is issued, the control unit instructs to close the opening and closing member based on the sensing.

7. The cash processing device according to claim 1 , wherein, when a jam occurs during transport of cash from the cash inlet to the temporary reserving unit in the deposit process and cash remains in the cash inlet, the control unit instructs to open the opening and closing member.

8. The cash processing device according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a cash outlet through which a client receives cash,
wherein, in a withdrawal process, the transport unit transports cash to the cash outlet from the storage unit and updates balance-in-hand of the storage unit at a timing at which the cash is ejected from the storage unit.

9. The cash processing device according to claim 8 , wherein the control unit controls a display of a screen for selecting a timing at which the balance-in-hand of the storage unit is updated from a plurality of timings including a timing at which cash is ejected from the storage unit.

10. The cash processing device according to claim 8 , wherein, when a jam occurs in the withdrawal process, the control unit controls a display of a screen indicating cash that has been transported to the cash outlet and cash remaining in the transport unit.

11. The cash processing device according to claim 10 , wherein the control unit controls a display of a screen for selecting a timing at which the balance-in-hand of the storage unit is updated from a plurality of timings including a timing at which cash is ejected from the storage unit.

12. The cash processing device according to claim 10 , wherein, when a jam occurs during transport of cash from the cash inlet to the temporary reserving unit in the deposit process, the control unit controls a display of a screen indicating cash remaining in the transport unit.

13. The cash processing device according to claim 12 , wherein the screen indicating the cash remaining in the transport unit further indicates whether or not cash remains in the cash inlet.

14. A cash processing method executed by a cash processing device which has a cash inlet having an opening and closing member, a temporary reserving unit configured to temporarily store cash, a storage unit configured to store cash, a recognition unit configured to discriminate cash and a transport unit configured to, in a deposit process, transport cash input into the cash inlet to the temporary reserving unit in a state in which the opening and closing member is closed and transport cash stored in the temporary reserving unit to the storage unit, the cash processing method comprising:
controlling a display of a selection screen for selecting
a first deposit method of performing an input of cash at one time in one transaction, or
a second deposit method of performing in one transaction repeated inputs of cash over plurality of times;

displaying a deposit information screen including a counting result obtained by the recognition unit, after the transport of the cash input to the cash inlet to the temporary reserving unit ends; and
issuing no instruction to open the opening and closing member when the first deposit method is selected, and instructing to open the opening and closing member when the second deposit method is selected, after receipt by the device of a confirmation that the counting result is correct, and before the transport of the cash stored in the temporary reserving unit to the storage unit ends.
