MEDIUM PROCESSING DEVICE AND METHOD OF CONNECTING UNITS IN MEDIUM PROCESSING DEVICE
A medium processing device includes: a first unit; and a plurality of second units connected to the first unit. Each of the plurality of second units includes: a conveying mechanism that conveys a medium; and a medium detection portion that detects the medium being conveyed by the conveying mechanism and transmits a signal indicating detection of the medium to the first unit. The first unit determines connection order of the plurality of second units with respect to the first unit, based on the signal transmitted from each medium detection portion of the plurality of second units.
Paper sheet accumulating device and control method of paper sheet accumulating device
A paper sheet accumulating device includes an accumulating part in which paper sheets are accumulated, an impeller that sends the paper sheets to the accumulating part, and a support mechanism that supports the impeller. The support mechanism includes a first rotation shaft that supports the impeller rotatable, a support member provided with the first rotation shaft, a second rotation shaft that supports the support member rotatable in a direction of the support member moving toward and away from the accumulating part, and a biasing member that biases the support member in a direction of the impeller moving toward the paper sheets accumulated in the accumulating part.

PAPER SHEET PROCESSING DEVICE AND PAPER SHEET PROCESSING METHOD
A paper sheet processing device, which counts a plurality of paper sheets set in a deposit portion into groups of a predetermined batch number and dispenses them to a dispensing portion, includes a temporary holding portion configured to hold the paper sheets set in the deposit portion and feed the held paper sheets, and a control portion configured to perform feed control of the paper sheets in the temporary holding portion and transport control of the paper sheets set in the deposit portion, in which the control portion performs control to feed the paper sheets held in the temporary holding portion divided into groups of the batch number and dispense the paper sheets to the dispensing portion.
PAPER SHEET DETECTION DEVICE, PAPER SHEET DETECTION METHOD, AND PAPER SHEET PROCESSING DEVICE
A paper sheet detection device includes: an optical sensor that includes a light-emitting portion that emits light, and a light-receiving portion that receives the emitted light; a storage portion that stores a first threshold value used for determining whether or not a paper sheet is present in a path of the emitted light, a target light-receiving level set as a target value of a level of the light received by the light-receiving portion in a state where the paper sheet is not present, and a second threshold value that is set to a value that is greater than the first threshold value and less than the target light-receiving level; an estimating portion that determines whether the level of the light received by the light-receiving portion is equal to or greater than the first threshold value and less than the second threshold value, and that estimates whether or not the paper sheet is present; and a light amount adjusting portion that adjusts an amount of the light emitted by the light-emitting portion so that the level of the light received by the light-receiving portion becomes the target light-receiving level in the state where the paper sheet is not present when the estimating portion estimates that the paper sheet is not present after the estimating portion determines that the level of the light received by the light-receiving portion is equal to or greater than the first threshold value and less than the second threshold value.
Universal built-in cassette array with cash rebalancing
A cassette housing for rebalancing bills among storage cassettes is disclosed. The cassette housing is fixedly and operably coupled to a transaction device and includes docking apparatus structured to receive a first storage cassette and a second storage cassette, a transport apparatus operatively coupled to the docking apparatuses and a housing computing system. The transport apparatus is structured to facilitate transferring the bills among the storage cassettes. The housing computing system is structured to generate a first storage data packet and a second storage data packet associated with the first storage cassette and the second storage cassette, respectively. A rebalancing instruction may be generated by a remote computing system based on the first storage data packet and the second storage data packet. The cassette housing is structured to cause the transport apparatus to transport bills based on a rebalancing instruction.
Bezel assembly with close range communication abilities for use with an automated transaction device
The bezel assembly for data reception, for use with a bill validator in a financial transactional device, includes a bezel housing and a data reception assembly. The bezel housing includes a customer-facing front portion and a back plate connectable to the bill validator that is mounted within the transactional device cabinet. The front portion includes an insertion/dispensing slot for receiving currency and a projecting protrusion forward of the casing. The forward-extending protrusion accommodates at least a portion of the data reception assembly. The bezel assembly can include a wireless communication function that is communicably connectable with a mobile device via a wireless communication method, a manual entry function, a biometric reader, one or more cameras for scanning and decrypting 2D barcodes and the like, thus enhancing the overall functionality of the financial transactional device.
