Banknote account and arrangement apparatus

Abstract

A banknote account and arrangement apparatus includes a supply portion for supplying a bundle of banknotes in the apparatus one after another, a discrimination circuit for discriminating denomination, face, fitness, authenticity, and the like of the supplied banknotes, temporary stackers in which the banknote is stacked in an account mode, closed cassettes coupled to the temporary stackers, open pockets in which the banknote is stacked in an arrangement mode, a RAM for collecting data of the banknote stacked in the temporary stackers, a CPU for verifying the collected data of the banknote stacked in the temporary stackers with known data of the bundle of the banknotes, pushers and shutters for, only when a verification result is correct, stacking the banknote stacked in the temporary stackers in the closed cassettes, and a display portion for displaying the collected data. Sensors detect if the temporary stackers are full. When the sensors detect that the temporary stackers are full in the account mode, a stacking destination of the paper money is changed to the open pockets while continuously collecting the data. After the temporary stackers are replaced with empty ones, the banknote stacked in the open pockets are stacked in the temporary stackers without collecting the data.
