Description

[Detailed description of the device] "Industrial application field" This device uses a readable / writable card type ticket to settle the fare when boarding a transportation facility such as a bus, and also prints out the fare settlement details. The present invention relates to a card type ticket settlement device with a receipt for issuing a receipt.

“Conventional technology” Card carriers have been introduced to transportation systems such as route buses in order to simplify fare settlement when getting on and off.
This system is a method in which a deposit ticket of a predetermined amount is purchased, and thereafter, the deposit ticket can be used any number of times up to the purchase amount within the valid period or within the valid amount. To settle the boarding fare, a magnetic stripe is provided in the case of a card type ticket, and the boarding fare is subtracted from the effective amount magnetically recorded on the magnetic stripe.

Although the passengers are informed of the payment details of the card-type ticket by the display means of the card processing device, they will be erased when the next card-type ticket is processed or after a certain period of time.

Conventionally, for customers who pay the fare in cash when boarding,
Sometimes a receipt was issued instead of a ticket.
In this case, a receipt ticket issuing machine is provided. If there are passengers who use card-type tickets and passengers who use cash, it is necessary to install a card processing device and a receipt ticket issuing machine for fare settlement, and space is required in transportation vehicles such as buses. Because of the small space, when installing both of these, it was difficult for the installation location.

It is conceivable to integrally configure the card type ticket settlement device and the cash fare settlement device. Since cash can be easily inserted and the amount of money inserted can be easily checked by the driver, a cash slot is provided on the top of the device at the entrance side. It is expected that a card slot will be provided.

When a receipt is issued with such a card-type ticket settlement device, when a card-type ticket and cash are continuously inserted into the card-type ticket insertion slot and cash slot when boarding, the receipt exit If the receipts are the same, it is difficult to know which receipt was ejected first when the receipt ejection state is disturbed.

If the passenger's entry of fare information is time-consuming (delayed) when the card-type ticket is inserted before cash is inserted, the card-type ticket is entered if the driver's fare information entry is earlier than the passenger's fare information entry. Fares will be settled with cash that was inserted later than the ticket, and cash settlement receipts will be discharged to the outlet first, which may cause confusion such as mistakes in taking the tickets.

The purpose of this device is to print the payment details of the card-type ticket on the receipt when you board the vehicle, and discharge it at the same time as the card-type ticket.
In the case of cash settlement, it is an object of the present invention to provide a card-type ticket settlement device with a receipt, which enables the receipt to be printed by printing the settlement contents and discharging the receipts to passengers.

[Means for Solving the Problem] In the card type ticket settlement device with receipt of the present invention, when the card type ticket is inserted, it is detected by the card insertion detecting means, and the card type ticket whose insertion is detected is The card is conveyed to the reading / rewriting section by the card conveying means. The reading / rewriting unit reads the recorded information on the card type ticket and rewrites it. The fare is settled by the controller from the read record information and the fare information input from the fare information input means.

The contents of the fare payment and the input fare information are printed on, for example, roll paper, and a receipt obtained by cutting this into a receipt is discharged to the first discharge port by the card transporting means at the same time as the adjusted card type ticket.

Further, when the fare information is input by the fare information input means in a state in which the card insertion detecting means does not detect the insertion of the card type ticket, the printed receipt is discharged to the second discharge port by the receipt discharging means.

[Embodiment] An embodiment of a card type ticket settlement apparatus with a receipt according to the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings.

When a passenger inserts a deposit ticket (card-type ticket) 11 into the card processing device 21, when the passenger inserts it from the amount recorded in the card-type ticket 11, the controller 28 charges a fare for the card-type ticket 11. Perform the settlement process. That is, the boarding fare entered by the fare information input means 13 is subtracted from the amount of money recorded on the card type ticket 11. After the subtraction processing, the remaining amount of the card type ticket 11 is displayed by the notification means 22.
At this time, the card processing device 21 prints the settlement contents such as the date and time, the remaining amount, and the system number and the boarding fare on the receipt 12, and the card type ticket 11 and the receipt 12 are discharged to the same exit.

Next, details of the card processing device 21 will be described with reference to FIG. The card processing device 21 detects the card type ticket 11 inserted from the card insertion port 23 by the card insertion detecting means 24. When the card insertion is detected, the card transport means 25 is driven, and the inserted card type ticket 11 is transferred to the magnetic head 26. The recording information read by the magnetic head 26 is reproduced by the reproducing circuit 27.

The controller 28 is composed of a microcomputer, and temporarily stores the record information read out from the card type ticket 11 in a memory, and the amount of the stored record information and the fare entered by the fare information input means 13. Compare with the information (fare)
The latter is subtracted from the former and the remaining amount is used to rewrite the amount of the card type ticket 11 via the writing circuit 36 and the magnetic head 26.
In this way, the fare settlement process is performed on the card type ticket 11, and the card type ticket 11 is reserved near the exit of the card conveying means 25. The fare information input means 13 is, for example, a keyboard, is provided at the position of the card processing device 21 or away from it, and is operated and input by a crew member or a passenger.

The fare settlement contents (including the entered fare information) are printed by the printing unit 32 on the printing paper supplied from the roll paper 31. The printing is controlled by the controller 28. The printed paper is cut into a predetermined length by the cutting means 33. The cut receipt 12 is transferred to the card discharge port by the receipt conveying means 34.
29 The card is conveyed to the intersection with the conveyance path by the card conveying means 25 inside. At this time, the receipt 12 is in a state where the passenger cannot take it out.

When the rewriting of the recorded information of the card type ticket 11 and the transportation of the receipt 12 to the intersection are completed, the card transportation means 25
