A method (100) for depassivation of a battery (BATT) of a cash and valuables container (10) includes at least one electronically controllable component (14) and an associated control circuit (18) being supplied by the battery (BATT). The control circuit (18) executes at least one control procedure for the at least one electronically controllable component (14). The valuables container can be transportable, e.g. a cash box (10), and includes an invalidation unit, in particular an ink dyeing system (14). The control circuit (18) then also executes the depassivation (120) of the battery (BATT) each time before activating or deactivating the at least one control procedure (130) or a sub-routine thereof, such as the sub-routine for controlling and driving the ink dyeing system. Specifically, the depassivation of the battery (BATT) is performed before each first/initial execution of the least one control procedure (130).

Provided is a money depositing device, comprising: a receiving unit that receives depositing instruction information on a depositing instruction from a portable device by wireless communication, the depositing instruction being accepted by the portable device from a user; a depositing processing unit that performs depositing processing of money placed into an inlet by the user in accordance with the depositing instruction information received by the receiving unit; and a transmitting unit that transmits a depositing result of the depositing processing performed by the depositing processing unit to the portable device by wireless communication.

The present invention comprises: a depositing section; a withdrawal section; a first storage unit which is installed within a storage housing that is lockable, the first storage unit being used in at least one of depositing processing of the sheet and withdrawal processing of the sheet; an attachment section which detachably attaches a second storage unit to an outside of the storage housing, the second storage unit being used in at least one of the depositing processing and the withdrawal processing and storing the sheet in a state of being isolated from an outside of the second storage unit; a transport unit which transports the sheet among the depositing section, the withdrawal section, the first storage unit, and the second storage unit; and a control section which controls the transport unit to perform at least one of the above two processing.

A valuable medium processing apparatus that stores a valuable medium in a storage bag, the valuable medium processing apparatus having: a mounting sections, the storage bag being mounted on the mounting sections; an acquisition section that acquires recognition information attached to the storage bag, and mounting information of the mounting section to which the storage bag has been mounted; and an association section that associates the recognition information with the mounting information, the recognition information and the mounting information being acquired by the acquisition section.

A storage bag which includes an opening is to be suspended from a first holding section and a second holding section of a paper-sheet processing device. The storage bag includes a first attaching portion to be attached to the first holding section, and provided at an opening end of the storage bag, a second attaching portion to be attached to the second holding section, and provided at the opening end of the storage bag, a first sealing portion which is provided at a position below the first attaching portion, a second sealing portion which is provided at a position below the second attaching portion and which seals the opening by being joined with the first sealing portion, and a reinforcing member provided in either one of the first sealing portion and the second sealing portion.

A coin feeding apparatus comprising: a disk that includes a plurality of protrusions on a surface of the disk, is disposed to be inclined and rotatable, and, when rotating, causes a first coin or a second coin to be caught on and carried upward by the plurality of protrusions, the second coin having a diameter greater than that of the first coin; a cover that forms, between the cover and a surface of the disk, a space for storing a coin therein; and a separation unit that separates one coin out of two of the first coins from the plurality of protrusions so as to cause the one coin to fall into the space, the two first coins being caught on the plurality of protrusions side by side.

A paper sheet storage device includes a storage unit, a conveyance mechanism including a carry-in path and a carry-out path, a gate member switched between a storage state and a passing state, a lock mechanism including a lock member which restricts a movement of the gate member, and an unlock member that unlocks a locked state. The unlock member is disposed so as to project from a side of one of the carry-in path and the carry-out path to outside of the paper sheet storage device. The lock member is disposed so as to project from a side of the other of the carry-in path and the carry-out path to the outside of the paper sheet storage device. When the paper sheet storage device is connected to another paper sheet storage device, the lock member is moved by the unlock member of the another paper sheet storage device.

Provided is a small-sized money processing machine that is easy to use in a store. A money processing machine used for settlement of a transaction performed in a store, includes: a banknote processing unit that performs depositing and dispensing of banknotes; a coin processing unit that performs depositing and dispensing of coins; and an accommodation unit that accommodates components to be connected to at least one of the banknote processing unit and the coin processing unit. The banknote processing unit, the coin processing unit, and the accommodation unit are disposed in a housing so as to be vertically aligned.

A valuable medium processing apparatus that includes a mounting section which is set to either a first state in which a storage unit that stores a valuable medium is not mounted or a second state in which the storage unit is mounted, and a control section that performs, based on selection of the mounting section, a switching process between the first state and the second state of the selected mounting section.

A sheet storage apparatus (for example, banknote handling machine includes: a holding unit (for example, each holding member) configured to hold a storage bag in a state where an opening portion of a banknote storage bag is opened or in a state where the opening portion of the banknote storage bag is sealed; a regulation unit configured to selectively regulate access to the banknote storage bag held by the holding unit; and a control unit configured to control the regulation unit so as to allow access to the banknote storage bag held by the holding unit in a state where the opening portion of the banknote storage bag is opened when a predetermined condition is satisfied.
