Abstract
Provided are an imaging unit capable of imaging a banknote processing device and a periphery of a transaction operation clerk who is operating the banknote processing device and a recording unit that records imaging data of the imaging unit, an identification number that is visually identifiable is inscribed on at least one surface of a partition card, the imaging unit is capable of imaging the identification number, and the recording unit records imaging data of the imaging.
Claims5
A banknote processing system comprising:
- a banknote processing device, the banknote processing device comprising
- a loading unit in which a banknote block is set together with a partition card, the banknote block including banknotes stacked in a stacking direction, the partition card being arranged on one of outer sides of the banknote block in the stacking direction, an identification number that is visually identifiable being inscribed on at least one surface of the partition card,
- an identification unit that identifies the banknotes and the partition card taken in from the loading unit,
- a stacking unit in which banknotes identified as normal banknotes by the identification unit are stacked, and
- a reject unit in which reject banknotes identified as other than the normal banknotes by the identification unit and the partition card are stacked;
- an imaging unit that images the banknote processing device, a periphery of a transaction operation clerk who is operating the banknote processing device, and the identification number to obtain image data showing the banknote processing device, the periphery of the transaction operation clerk, and the identification number;
- a recording unit that records the imaging data;
- a detection unit that detects that the banknote processing device has started a counting operation of the banknote block in a state in which the imaging unit has not imaged the identification number;
- and
- a notification unit that issues an alarm when the detection unit detects that the banknote processing device has started the counting operation.
A banknote processing method for when performing banknote processing using a banknote processing system, the banknote processing system comprising:
- a banknote processing device, the banknote processing device comprising
- a loading unit in which a banknote block is set together with a partition card, the banknote block including banknotes stacked in a stacking direction, the partition card being arranged on one of outer sides of the banknote block in the stacking direction,
- an identification unit that identifies the banknotes and the partition card taken in from the loading unit,
- a stacking unit in which banknotes identified as normal banknotes by the identification unit are stacked, and
- a reject unit in which reject banknotes identified as other than the normal banknotes by the identification unit and the partition card are stacked;
- an imaging unit;
- a recording unit;
- a detection unit;
- and
- a notification unit,
- the banknote processing method comprising:
- using, as the partition card, a partition card on at least one surface of which an identification number that is visually identifiable is inscribed;
- and
- when the banknote block is set in the loading unit, causing the imaging unit to image the identification number of the partition card arranged on the one outer side of the banknote block in the stacking direction and causing the recording unit to record therein imaging data showing the identification number;
- detecting, by the detection unit, that the banknote processing device has started a counting operation of the banknote block in a state in which the imaging unit has not imaged the identification number;
- and
- issuing, by the notification unit, an alarm when the detection unit detects that the banknote processing device has started the counting operation.
