PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent the illegal put-out of game medals and coins and the robbery of banknotes by detecting the operation state of a hopper through the use of a money reception signal, so as to detect an illegal action by the simultaneous use of sensor and a photographing apparatus. SOLUTION: A hopper motor current detecting sensor 3 for detecting a current A flowing in a hopper motor 5 is attached to a hopper motor power source line 50. The proximal end is connected to an illegality detection control part 6. In the case of a state where the money reception signal P to be outputted to an outer part when the hoper 51 is normally operated based on the money reception signal P of the thrown-in banknote is freely transmittable to the illegality detection control part 6 and also the hopper motor 5 is operated even when the money reception signal P is not transmitted to the illegality detection control part 6, the hopper motor current detecting sensor 3 senses the state as the illegal put-out, so as to issue alarm. a door opening/closing detecting sensor 12 is arranged in front of a banknote storage cashbox 11. A state where a front door 14 is opened is sensed as an illegal state so that alarm is issued. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
