- the invention relates to a method for controlling a device for storing and dispensing banknotes with a plurality of each receiving a banknote chambers and an electronic control system, wherein banknotes of particular significance, which are provided for an output, stored in the chambers and output therefrom and banknotes of other valence are stored in a cash register.
- DE 100 33 374 A1 discloses a device for storing and dispensing banknotes, in particular for coin-operated entertainment devices, which comprises a banknote input and output, a conveying path with a transport device and a banknote storage device which can be moved transversely to the conveying path.
- the banknote storage device consists of a multiplicity of chambers accommodating one banknote each, which are formed by tension-loaded adjacent plates, to which at least one plate-spreading device is assigned.
- two plates are movable away from each other. The banknote is moved into or out of the chamber and the adjacent plates move back into their original position in the banknote storage.
- DE 100 51 224 A1 shows an apparatus for storing and dispensing banknotes, which comprises a banknote checking device for banknotes entered and to be dispensed, a banknotes input and output, a conveying path with a transporting device and a banknote store movable transversely to a conveying path opening.
- the banknote storage consists of a plurality of each receiving a banknote, closed on one side chambers. These are formed by dividing walls which are mechanically adjustable linearly to the conveying path opening. For receiving or dispensing a banknote one of these associated partition is movable out of the banknote memory, the banknote from or to the transport device can be transferred and the partition again moved to its original position in the banknote memory.
- banknote storage devices described above are frequently used in vending machines and money-operated entertainment devices and are coupled with banknote validators.
- coin validators and coin storage devices are installed in these devices to give users ggfls. to repay any surplus funds or to pay out profits. Due to the limited space available in these devices, the banknote storage devices have a relatively small number of chambers for receiving banknotes.
- a vending machine manufacturer or manufacturer defines the valences of the banknotes to be stored in the banknote storage, which are used for Payout are determined and populates the empty banknote memory with appropriate banknotes to ensure a payout of the same.
- banknotes of the banknote storage are filled up with banknotes entered by users whose valency corresponds to the valency stored in an electronic control unit. Since usually only two weights of banknotes are provided for storage in the banknote memory, there is a problem with regard to the capacity of the banknote memory and thus with regard to the payout capability of the device.
- banknotes of low value are provided for direct payout and thus for storage in the banknote store, and banknotes of high value are transported directly into the cash register.
- the banknote store is set in such a way that, for example, banknotes with the values 5, - EUR and 10, - EUR are stored in the chambers, then the device is only partially disbursable, if frequently banknotes of great value, namely for example 20, - or 50, - EUR banknotes, to be used for payment on the device. If the banknote store is set up to store high-value banknotes, for example 20, and 50, EUR banknotes, the problem arises that payment of banknotes only takes place at relatively high repayment amounts and smaller amounts are repaid in coins become. However, this repayment or payout behavior is not accepted by the users of the devices who want to receive the smallest possible amount of coins when repaying.
- the object is achieved in that, depending on a minimum value stored in the control electronics and a maximum value for the number of banknotes of particular significance, the banknotes are either stored in the chambers for output or directed into the cash register.
- banknotes weighted by their value in the banknote store for payout whereby a plurality of weights can be provided, which are determined after usual deposits or withdrawals, in order both to refill the banknote store by entering banknotes also to ensure its payout ability.
- banknotes of low value often come to payoff, for example, the banknote with the value 5 EUR is assigned a relatively high minimum value and also a high maximum value, while a banknote with a high value of 50 EUR, for example, which is neither frequent is deposited yet paid, both a small minimum value and small maximum value is assigned, so that a banknote of this value is usually directed to the cashier.
- the sum of all maximum values is preferably greater than the number of chambers.
- the sum of all minimum values is less than or equal to the number of chambers.
- the banknotes are preferably directed into any chamber of the apparatus, the control electronics both detecting free chambers and storing the valency of the bins occupying the chambers together with associated characteristics of the chamber ,
- the banknote memory in an incoming bill in such a way that the bill passes into a specific chamber for storage. Rather, the bill is promoted to the next available chamber.
- the banknote store is brought into the position in which the nearest chamber with the banknote of corresponding significance is located.
- a target value for Number of banknotes of particular significance stored, with notes of the lowest significance, the number of which is greater than the target value, are issued with priority from the chambers.
- the target value is carried out a regulation of the occupancy of the chambers of the banknote memory and a control of the banknote output.
- banknotes of a specific valency prefferably be output during an output process until it reaches its minimum value. This ensures that in a subsequent issue process banknotes of this value up to their minimum value for disbursement are available.
- banknotes of the next highest significance are issued.
- the maximum value and / or the minimum value are adapted by the control electronics as a function of the valencies of the banknotes passing through a bill validator upstream of the device. For example, if the banknote store is housed in a device where high value banknotes are frequently deposited and relatively large amounts are paid out, higher minimum or maximum banknotes are stored for medium value banknotes, while for frequent banknotes of low value banknotes the minimum - and maximum values for banknotes of medium or higher value reduced and which are increased for banknotes of low value.
- the minimum value and the maximum value of a banknote of particular significance are set to zero. Accordingly, the banknote of this value does not reach the banknote store but is deposited directly in the cash register.
- the operator of the banknote storage has the easy way to determine which weights of banknotes on the banknote storage come to pay and which valences are promoted directly into the box office.
- a control electronics of a bank note storage are for banknotes of certain weights, namely 5, - EUR, 10, - EUR, 20, - EUR and 50, - EUR, respectively defined a minimum value, a maximum value and a target value, the sum the maximum value is greater than the number of banknote receiving chambers of the banknote memory.
- the control electronics checks the occupancy of the chambers of the banknote memory with regard to the valency of the banknotes received therein and whether a number of banknotes of this significance corresponding to the minimum value is present in the banknote store. If this is not the case, the deposit of the banknote entered takes place in a free chamber of the banknote store and is thus intended for payment.
- banknotes of the lowest value are always first output in the banknote store, and then the banknotes having the next highest priority are taken into account.
- Minimum, maximum and target values are not fixed values but may be changed by the control electronics depending on the number of entered and / or dispensed banknotes of particular significance to ensure both the dispensability of the banknote storage and the preferred conveyance of high quality banknotes to ensure the cash register.
Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren zur Steuerung einer Vorrichtung zum Speichern und Ausgeben von Banknoten mit einer Vielzahl von jeweils eine Banknote aufnehmenden Kammern und einer Steuerungselektronik, wobei Banknoten bestimmter Wertigkeit, die zu einer Ausgabe vorgesehen sind, in den Kammern gespeichert sowie aus diesen ausgegeben und Banknoten anderer Wertigkeit in einer Kasse abgelegt werden.The invention relates to a method for controlling a device for storing and dispensing banknotes with a plurality of each receiving a banknote chambers and an electronic control system, wherein banknotes of particular significance, which are provided for an output, stored in the chambers and output therefrom and banknotes of other valence are stored in a cash register.
Die DE 100 33 374 A1 offenbart eine Vorrichtung zum Speichern und Ausgeben von Banknoten, insbesondere für geldbetätigte Unterhaltungsgeräte, die eine Banknotenein- und - ausgabe, einen Förderweg mit einer Transporteinrichtung und ein quer zum Förderweg verfahrbaren Banknotenspeicher umfasst. Der Banknotenspeicher besteht aus einer Vielzahl von jeweils eine Banknote aufnehmenden Kammern, die durch zugfederbelastete, benachbarte Platten gebildet sind, denen mindestens eine Plattenspreizeinrichtung zugeordnet ist. Zur Aufnahme oder Ausgabe einer Banknote mittels der Plattenspreizeinrichtung sind zwei Platten voneinander weg bewegbar. Die Banknote wird in die Kammer hinein oder aus dieser herausbewegt und die benachbarten Platten verfahren wieder in ihre Ausgangsstellung im Banknotenspeicher.DE 100 33 374 A1 discloses a device for storing and dispensing banknotes, in particular for coin-operated entertainment devices, which comprises a banknote input and output, a conveying path with a transport device and a banknote storage device which can be moved transversely to the conveying path. The banknote storage device consists of a multiplicity of chambers accommodating one banknote each, which are formed by tension-loaded adjacent plates, to which at least one plate-spreading device is assigned. For receiving or dispensing a banknote by means of the plate spreader, two plates are movable away from each other. The banknote is moved into or out of the chamber and the adjacent plates move back into their original position in the banknote storage.
Des Weiteren zeigt die DE 100 51 224 A1 eine Vorrichtung zum Speichern und Ausgeben von Banknoten, die eine Banknotenprüfeinrichtung für eingegebene und auszugebende Banknoten, eine Banknotenein- und -ausgabe, einen Förderweg mit einer Transporteinrichtung und einen quer zu einer Förderwegöffnung verfahrbaren Banknotenspeicher umfasst. Der Banknotenspeicher besteht aus einer Vielzahl von jeweils eine Banknote aufnehmenden, einseitig verschlossenen Kammern. Diese werden durch linear zur Förderwegöffnung mechanisch verstellbare Trennwände gebildet. Zur Aufnahme oder Ausgabe einer Banknote ist eine dieser zugeordnete Trennwand aus dem Banknotenspeicher heraus bewegbar, die Banknote von der bzw. zur Transporteinrichtung überführbar und die Trennwand wieder in ihre Ausgangsstellung im Banknotenspeicher verfahrbar.Furthermore, DE 100 51 224 A1 shows an apparatus for storing and dispensing banknotes, which comprises a banknote checking device for banknotes entered and to be dispensed, a banknotes input and output, a conveying path with a transporting device and a banknote store movable transversely to a conveying path opening. The banknote storage consists of a plurality of each receiving a banknote, closed on one side chambers. These are formed by dividing walls which are mechanically adjustable linearly to the conveying path opening. For receiving or dispensing a banknote one of these associated partition is movable out of the banknote memory, the banknote from or to the transport device can be transferred and the partition again moved to its original position in the banknote memory.
Die zuvor beschriebenen Banknotenspeicher finden häufig Verwendung in Verkaufsautomaten bzw. geldbetätigten Unterhaltungsgeräten und sind mit Banknotenprüfern gekoppelt. Ferner sind Münzprüfer sowie Münzspeichereinrichtungen in diesen Geräten installiert, um Benutzern ggfls. überschüssige Geldbeträge zurückzuzahlen oder Gewinne auszuzahlen. Aufgrund der beengten Platzverhältnisse in diesen Geräten weisen die Banknotenspeicher eine relativ geringe Anzahl Kammern zur Aufnahme von Banknoten auf. Ein Automatenhersteller oder Aufsteller definiert die Wertigkeiten der in dem Banknotenspeicher zu speichernden Banknoten, die zur Auszahlung bestimmt sind und bestückt den leeren Banknotenspeicher mit entsprechenden Banknoten, um eine Auszahlung derselben zu gewährleisten. Im Betrieb des Gerätes werden leere Kammern des Banknotenspeichers mit von Benutzern eingegebenen Banknoten aufgefüllt, deren Wertigkeit der in einer Steuerungselektronik gespeicherten Wertigkeit entspricht. Da in der Regel lediglich zwei Wertigkeiten von Banknoten zur Speicherung in dem Banknotenspeicher vorgesehen sind, besteht ein Problem hinsichtlich der Kapazität des Banknotenspeichers und damit bezüglich der Auszahlfähigkeit des Gerätes. Vorzugsweise werden Banknoten geringer Wertigkeit zur direkten Auszahlung und damit zur Lagerung in dem Banknotenspeicher vorgesehen und Banknoten mit großer Wertigkeit werden direkt in die Kasse transportiert. Ist der Banknotenspeicher derart eingestellt, dass beispielsweise Banknoten mit den Wertigkeiten 5,-- EUR und 10,-- EUR in den Kammern gelagert werden, dann ist das Gerät nur bedingt auszahlfähig, falls häufig Banknoten mit großer Wertigkeit, nämlich beispielsweise 20,-- oder 50,--EUR-Banknoten, zur Bezahlung an dem Gerät verwendet werden. Ist der Banknotenspeicher so eingestellt, dass er Banknoten hoher Wertigkeit, nämlich beispielsweise 20,-- und 50,--EUR-Banknoten lagert, ergibt sich das Problem, dass eine Auszahlung von Banknoten erst bei relativ hohen Rückzahlbeträgen erfolgt und geringere Beträge in Münzen zurückgezahlt werden. Dieses Rückzahl- bzw. Auszahlverhalten findet aber keine Akzeptanz bei den Benutzern der Geräte, die bei einer Rückzahlung eine möglichst geringe Menge Münzgeld erhalten möchten.The banknote storage devices described above are frequently used in vending machines and money-operated entertainment devices and are coupled with banknote validators. In addition, coin validators and coin storage devices are installed in these devices to give users ggfls. to repay any surplus funds or to pay out profits. Due to the limited space available in these devices, the banknote storage devices have a relatively small number of chambers for receiving banknotes. A vending machine manufacturer or manufacturer defines the valences of the banknotes to be stored in the banknote storage, which are used for Payout are determined and populates the empty banknote memory with appropriate banknotes to ensure a payout of the same. During operation of the device, empty chambers of the banknote storage are filled up with banknotes entered by users whose valency corresponds to the valency stored in an electronic control unit. Since usually only two weights of banknotes are provided for storage in the banknote memory, there is a problem with regard to the capacity of the banknote memory and thus with regard to the payout capability of the device. Preferably, banknotes of low value are provided for direct payout and thus for storage in the banknote store, and banknotes of high value are transported directly into the cash register. If the banknote store is set in such a way that, for example, banknotes with the
Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, ein Verfahren der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, das eine flexible Belegung der Kammern des Banknotenspeichers mit Banknoten unterschiedlicher Wertigkeiten sicherstellt.It is an object of the invention to provide a method of the type mentioned, which ensures flexible allocation of the chambers of the banknote storage with banknotes of different weights.
Erfindungsgemäß wird die Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, dass in Abhängigkeit von einem in der Steuerungselektronik gespeicherten Minimalwert sowie Maximalwert für die Anzahl von Banknoten bestimmter Wertigkeit die Banknoten entweder in den Kammern zur Ausgabe gespeichert oder in die Kasse geleitet werden.According to the invention, the object is achieved in that, depending on a minimum value stored in the control electronics and a maximum value for the number of banknotes of particular significance, the banknotes are either stored in the chambers for output or directed into the cash register.
Aufgrund dieser Maßnahmen ist es möglich, Banknoten gewichtet nach ihrer Wertigkeit in dem Banknotenspeicher zur Auszahlung zu speichern, wobei eine Vielzahl von Wertigkeiten vorgesehen werden kann, die nach üblichen Einzahlungen bzw. Auszahlungen bestimmt werden, um sowohl das Nachfüllen des Banknotenspeichers durch Eingabe von Banknoten als auch dessen Auszahlfähigkeit zu gewährleisten. Da häufig Banknoten geringer Wertigkeit zur Auszahlung kommen, wird beispielsweise der Banknote mit der Wertigkeit 5,-- EUR ein relativ hoher Minimalwert und ein ebenfalls hoher Maximalwert zugeordnet, während einer Banknote mit einer hohen Wertigkeit von beispielsweise 50,-- EUR, die weder häufig eingezahlt noch ausgezahlt wird, sowohl ein geringer Minimalwert als auch kleiner Maximalwert zugeordnet wird, so dass eine Banknote dieser Wertigkeit in der Regel zur Kasse geleitet wird. Damit ergibt sich ein weiterer Vorteil der Erfindung, nämlich die Beeinflussung des Inhalts der Kasse über die Definition der Minimal- und Maximalwerte der Banknoten der Wertigkeiten, die zur Auszahlung gelangen. Ein Betreiber des Banknotenspeichers steuert mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren den Inhalt der dem Banknotenprüfer nachgeschalteten Kasse, wobei es ihm möglich ist, bevorzugt Banknoten mit einer hohen Wertigkeit in die Kasse zu befördern und Banknoten mit einer geringen Wertigkeit zur Auszahlung vorzusehen.Due to these measures, it is possible to store banknotes weighted by their value in the banknote store for payout, whereby a plurality of weights can be provided, which are determined after usual deposits or withdrawals, in order both to refill the banknote store by entering banknotes also to ensure its payout ability. Since banknotes of low value often come to payoff, for example, the banknote with the
Um eine Befüllung des Banknotenspeichers mittels eingegebener Banknoten sicherzustellen, ist bevorzugt die Summe aller Maximalwerte größer als die Anzahl der Kammern. Zweckmäßigerweise ist die Summe aller Minimalwerte kleiner oder gleich der Anzahl der Kammern.In order to ensure filling of the banknote memory by means of banknotes entered, the sum of all maximum values is preferably greater than the number of chambers. Conveniently, the sum of all minimum values is less than or equal to the number of chambers.
Zur Erzielung einer relativ schnellen sowie einfachen Ablage bzw. Ausgabe von Banknoten bestimmter Wertigkeit werden vorzugsweise die Banknoten in eine beliebige Kammer der Vorrichtung geleitet, wobei die Steuerungselektronik sowohl freie Kammern erfasst als auch die Wertigkeit der die Banknoten belegenden Kammern gemeinsam mit zugeordneten Kenndaten der Kammer speichert. Damit ist es nicht erforderlich, die Vorrichtung, also den Banknotenspeicher, bei einer eingehenden Banknote derart zu belegen, dass die Banknote zur Speicherung in eine bestimmte Kammer gelangt. Vielmehr wird die Banknote in die nächst freie Kammer gefördert. Ebenso wird bei einer Auszahlung einer Banknote bestimmter Wertigkeit der Banknotenspeicher in die Position gebracht, in der sich die nächstgelegene Kammer mit der Banknote entsprechender Wertigkeit befindet.To achieve a relatively fast and easy storage or dispensing of banknotes of particular significance, the banknotes are preferably directed into any chamber of the apparatus, the control electronics both detecting free chambers and storing the valency of the bins occupying the chambers together with associated characteristics of the chamber , Thus, it is not necessary to occupy the device, so the banknote memory, in an incoming bill in such a way that the bill passes into a specific chamber for storage. Rather, the bill is promoted to the next available chamber. Likewise, when a banknote of particular significance is paid out, the banknote store is brought into the position in which the nearest chamber with the banknote of corresponding significance is located.
Nach einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung des Erfindungsgedankens ist in der Steuerungselektronik ein Zielwert für die Anzahl von Banknoten bestimmter Wertigkeit gespeichert, wobei Banknoten mit der geringsten Wertigkeit, deren Anzahl größer als der Zielwert ist, vorrangig aus den Kammern ausgegeben werden. Mittels des Zielwertes erfolgt eine Regelung der Belegung der Kammern des Banknotenspeichers und eine Steuerung der Banknotenausgabe.According to an advantageous development of the inventive idea is in the control electronics, a target value for Number of banknotes of particular significance stored, with notes of the lowest significance, the number of which is greater than the target value, are issued with priority from the chambers. By means of the target value is carried out a regulation of the occupancy of the chambers of the banknote memory and a control of the banknote output.
Zweckmäßigerweise werden Banknoten bestimmter Wertigkeit bei einem Ausgabevorgang bis zum Erreichen ihres Minimalwertes ausgegeben. Damit ist sichergestellt, dass bei einem darauf folgenden Ausgabevorgang Banknoten dieser Wertigkeit im Umfang bis zu ihrem Minimalwert zur Auszahlung zur Verfügung stehen. Vorzugsweise werden nach dem Erreichen des Minimalwertes von Banknoten bestimmter Wertigkeit während eines Ausgabevorganges Banknoten mit nächst höherer Wertigkeit ausgegeben.It is expedient for banknotes of a specific valency to be output during an output process until it reaches its minimum value. This ensures that in a subsequent issue process banknotes of this value up to their minimum value for disbursement are available. Preferably, after reaching the minimum value of banknotes of particular significance during a dispensing operation, banknotes of the next highest significance are issued.
Zur fortlaufend flexiblen Anpassung des Speicherverhaltens des Banknotenspeichers werden in Ausgestaltung der Erfindung der Maximalwert und/oder der Minimalwert in Abhängigkeit von den Wertigkeiten der Banknoten, die einen der Vorrichtung vorgeschalteten Banknotenprüfer durchlaufen, von der Steuerungselektronik angepasst. Ist der Banknotenspeicher beispielsweise in einem Gerät untergebracht, an dem häufig Banknoten mit hoher Wertigkeit eingezahlt werden und relativ hohe Beträge zur Auszahlung kommen, werden höhere Minimal- bzw. Maximalwerte für Banknoten mittlerer Wertigkeit gespeichert, während bei einer oftmaligen Bezahlung mit Banknoten geringer Wertigkeit die Minimal- und Maximalwerte für Banknoten mittlerer bzw. höherer Wertigkeit reduziert und die für Banknoten geringer Wertigkeit erhöht werden.For continuous flexible adaptation of the memory behavior of the banknote memory, in an embodiment of the invention, the maximum value and / or the minimum value are adapted by the control electronics as a function of the valencies of the banknotes passing through a bill validator upstream of the device. For example, if the banknote store is housed in a device where high value banknotes are frequently deposited and relatively large amounts are paid out, higher minimum or maximum banknotes are stored for medium value banknotes, while for frequent banknotes of low value banknotes the minimum - and maximum values for banknotes of medium or higher value reduced and which are increased for banknotes of low value.
Vorteilhafterweise wird durch Beaufschlagung eines mit der Steuerungselektronik gekoppelten Schalters der Minimalwert und der Maximalwert einer Banknote bestimmter Wertigkeit auf Null gesetzt. Die Banknote dieser Wertigkeit gelangt demnach nicht in den Banknotenspeicher sondern wird direkt in der Kasse abgelegt. Damit hat der Betreiber des Banknotenspeichers die einfache Möglichkeit zu bestimmen, welche Wertigkeiten von Banknoten über den Banknotenspeicher zur Auszahlung kommen und welche Wertigkeiten direkt in die Kasse gefördert werden.Advantageously, by applying a switch coupled to the control electronics, the minimum value and the maximum value of a banknote of particular significance are set to zero. Accordingly, the banknote of this value does not reach the banknote store but is deposited directly in the cash register. Thus, the operator of the banknote storage has the easy way to determine which weights of banknotes on the banknote storage come to pay and which valences are promoted directly into the box office.
Es versteht sich, dass die vorstehend genannten und nachstehend noch zu erläuternden Merkmale nicht nur in der jeweils angegebenen Kombination, sondern auch in anderen Kombinationen verwendbar sind. Der Rahmen der vorliegenden Erfindung ist nur durch die Ansprüche definiert.It goes without saying that the features mentioned above and those yet to be explained below can be used not only in the respectively specified combination but also in other combinations. The scope of the present invention is defined only by the claims.

In einer Steuerungselektronik eines Banknotenspeichers sind für Banknoten bestimmter Wertigkeiten, nämlich 5,-- EUR, 10,-- EUR, 20,-- EUR und 50,-- EUR, jeweils ein Minimalwert, ein Maximalwert sowie ein Zielwert definiert, wobei die Summe der Maximalwerte größer ist als die Anzahl von Banknoten aufnehmenden Kammern des Banknotenspeichers. Bei der Eingabe einer Banknote bestimmter Wertigkeit überprüft die Steuerungselektronik die Belegung der Kammern des Banknotenspeichers hinsichtlich der Wertigkeit der darin aufgenommenen Banknoten und ob eine dem Minimalwert entsprechende Anzahl von Banknoten dieser Wertigkeit im Banknotenspeicher vorhanden ist. Ist dies nicht der Fall, erfolgt die Ablage der eingegebenen Banknote in einer freien Kammer des Banknotenspeichers und ist damit zur Auszahlung bestimmt. Ist der Minimalwert der Banknoten dieser Wertigkeit erreicht, wird festgestellt, ob eine Kammer des Banknotenspeichers zur Aufnahme der eingegebenen Banknote frei ist. Ist keine freie Kammer vorhanden, wird die Banknote zu einer Kasse gefördert. Sollten noch freie Kammern vorhanden sein, die aber zur Aufnahme von Banknoten anderer Wertigkeit zur Erreichung von deren Minimalwerten benötigt werden, wird die eingegebene Banknote ebenfalls in die Kasse gefördert. Der Transport zur Kasse erfolgt auch nachdem eine einem Maximalwert entsprechende Anzahl von Banknoten dieser Wertigkeit im Banknotenspeicher vorhanden ist. Sollte der Maximalwert noch nicht erreicht sein, erfolgt die Ablage der eingegebenen Banknote in einer freien Kammer des Banknotenspeichers.In a control electronics of a bank note storage are for banknotes of certain weights, namely 5, - EUR, 10, - EUR, 20, - EUR and 50, - EUR, respectively defined a minimum value, a maximum value and a target value, the sum the maximum value is greater than the number of banknote receiving chambers of the banknote memory. When entering a banknote of particular significance, the control electronics checks the occupancy of the chambers of the banknote memory with regard to the valency of the banknotes received therein and whether a number of banknotes of this significance corresponding to the minimum value is present in the banknote store. If this is not the case, the deposit of the banknote entered takes place in a free chamber of the banknote store and is thus intended for payment. When the minimum value of the banknotes of this denomination has been reached, it is determined whether a compartment of the banknote store is free to receive the entered banknote. If there is no free chamber, the bill is conveyed to a cash register. Should there still be free chambers, but they are needed to hold banknotes of a different value in order to reach their minimum values, The entered banknote is also promoted to the cashier. The transport to the cash register also takes place after a number of banknotes of this value corresponding to a maximum value is present in the banknote store. If the maximum value has not yet been reached, the deposit of the entered banknote takes place in a free chamber of the banknote store.
Im vorliegenden Fall wird bei Eingabe einer Banknote mit der Wertigkeit von 5,-- EUR und einer vorhandenen freien Kammer des Banknotenspeichers überprüft, ob sich bereits zwölf Banknoten dieser Wertigkeit innerhalb des Banknotenspeichers befinden. Ist dies der Fall, erfolgt der Transport der eingegebenen 5,-- EUR-Banknote zur Kasse, anderenfalls wird die 5,--EUR-Banknote in der freien Kammer abgelegt.In the present case, when entering a banknote with the value of EUR 5.00 and an available free chamber of the banknote store, it is checked whether there are already twelve banknotes of this value within the banknote store. If this is the case, the entered 5, - EUR banknote is transported to the cash register, otherwise the 5, - EUR banknote is deposited in the free chamber.
Bei der Ausgabe von Banknoten aus dem Banknotenspeicher werden stets zunächst im Banknotenspeicher vorhandene Banknoten mit der geringsten Wertigkeit ausgegeben und anschließend die Banknoten mit der jeweils nächst höheren Wertigkeit berücksichtigt.When issuing banknotes from the banknote store, banknotes of the lowest value are always first output in the banknote store, and then the banknotes having the next highest priority are taken into account.
Bei der nachfolgenden Erläuterung der Ausgabe von Banknoten aus dem Banknotenspeicher wird ein Ausgabebetrag von EUR 40,-- angenommen. Die Steuerungselektronik überprüft nun zunächst die Belegung der Kammer mit Banknoten der geringsten Wertigkeit, also der Wertigkeit von 5,-- EUR, für die ein Zielwert von fünf Stück gespeichert ist. Befinden sich sechs Banknoten zu 5,-- EUR innerhalb der Kammern, erfolgt deren Auszahlung bis zum Erreichen des Minimalwertes, nämlich vier Stück, so dass zwei Banknoten a 5,-- EUR ausgezahlt werden. Sonach befinden sich vier Banknoten mit einer Wertigkeit von 5,-- EUR in dem Banknotenspeicher und der hinterlegte Minimalwert ist erreicht. Zur Auszahlung der Restsumme von EUR 30,-- überprüft die Steuerungselektronik die Belegung der Kammern mit Banknoten der nächst höheren Wertigkeit, also 10,-- EUR-Banknoten. Befinden sich sechs Banknoten a 10,-- EUR in dem Banknotenspeicher und der entsprechende Zielwert ist mit fünf Stück definiert, dann erfolgt die Auszahlung einer Banknote dieser Wertigkeit. Der Restbetrag von 20,-- EUR wird entweder mit einer Banknote mit der Wertigkeit von 20,-- EUR entrichtet oder es erfolgt die Ausgabe einer Banknote mit der Wertigkeit 10,-- EUR, für die dann der Minimalwert von drei Stück erreicht ist und die Ausgabe von zwei Banknoten mit der Wertigkeit 5,--EUR, deren Minimalwert unterschritten ist. Die Unterschreitung des Minimalwertes erfolgt nur in den Fällen, in denen es zur Ausgabe einer bestimmten Betrages zwingend erforderlich ist, da der Minimalwert sonst einen gewissen Vorrat von Banknoten bestimmter Wertigkeit für weitere Auszahlvorgänge sicherstellen soll.In the following explanation of the issue of banknotes from the banknote storage, an issue amount of EUR 40, - accepted. The control electronics now first checks the occupancy of the chamber with banknotes of the lowest value, that is the value of 5, - EUR, for which a target value of five pieces is stored. If there are six banknotes at 5, - EUR within the chambers, their payment is made until the minimum value is reached, namely four pieces, so that two banknotes a 5, - EUR are paid. Accordingly, there are four banknotes with a value of 5, - EUR in the banknote storage and the deposited minimum value is reached. For payment of the balance of EUR 30, - checks the control electronics, the occupancy of the chambers with banknotes of the next higher value, so 10, - EUR banknotes. If there are six banknotes a 10, - EUR in the banknote storage and the corresponding target value is defined with five pieces, then the payment of a banknote of this priority takes place. The balance of 20, - EUR is either paid with a banknote with the value of 20, - EUR or there is the issue of a banknote with the
Minimal-, Maximal- und Zielwerte sind keine festen Werte, sondern können von der Steuerungselektronik in Abhängigkeit von der Anzahl eingegebener und/oder ausgegebener Banknoten bestimmter Wertigkeit verändert werden, um sowohl die Auszahlfähigkeit des Banknotenspeichers sicherzustellen als auch die bevorzugte Beförderung von Banknoten hoher Wertigkeit in die Kasse zu gewährleisten.Minimum, maximum and target values are not fixed values but may be changed by the control electronics depending on the number of entered and / or dispensed banknotes of particular significance to ensure both the dispensability of the banknote storage and the preferred conveyance of high quality banknotes to ensure the cash register.
