no. 2 approach

[0048] In the second embodiment, if there are no coins returned as change, no sale is possible.

[0049] First, as in the above-mentioned first embodiment, in the case of use in Japan, when one 50-yen coin and one 100-yen coin are inserted into the coin slot 24 (S41), the coins are inserted according to the type of currency. It is judged whether the change amount of the currency is insufficient (for example, 1 yen coin, 5 yen coin) (S42). In this case, since it is 50 yen and 100 yen, it is not a denomination in which the amount of change is insufficient (S42, YES), so it progresses to step S43.

[0050] Next, in step S43, through the MDB communication line 2a, a 50-yen coin and a 100-yen coin are sent to the card control unit 3 from the coin identification device 2 (S43).

[0051] In the card control section 3, based on the coins inserted, the total amount of the input amount is calculated. In this case, it is judged that the input is 50 yen+100 yen, and the total is "150 yen...

Abstract

The object of the invention is to provide a vending machine for easily performing communication even when communication protocols (communication specification) are different between a main control part and a coin identifying device in the vending machine, and to provide a card control part used for the machine. The vending machine including the main control part for controlling the whole vending machine; and the coin identifying device by multi-drop bus specification comprises the card control part. Communication is achieved by transmitting the communication specification from the multi-drop bus specification coin identifying device to the main control part via the card control part to the main control part as communication from the card control part.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an automatic vending machine capable of controlling an automatic vending machine and a money recognition device having different communication protocols (communication standards), and a card control unit used in the automatic vending machine. Background technique [0002] Usually, the automatic vending machine uses a serial communication line to connect the main control part and multiple slave control parts to exchange various data. Among the multiple slave control parts, there are currency control parts, delivery control parts, and door control parts. and keyboard controls. [0003] Currently, communication protocols employed in such automatic vending machines differ from country to country, for example, as described below are known. [0004] Sometimes, a currency recognition device from another country or region is installed in the main control unit of a vending machine manufactured in Japan. [0005] In this case, ...
