As shown in Figure 3A, the amount of prepaid money is printed on the front surface of the card 11, and a magnetic stripe lla is formed on the back surface of the card 11 to magnetically record the remaining amount of money therein. As shown in Figure 3B. the contents of the fare adjustment are printed on ty her 12.
10 Hereinafter, the function of the card processor will be described more specifically with reference to the flow chart shown in Figure 4. In operation, the controller 33 determines at step S1 as to whether or not a fare information has been input, and if not, it determines at step 52 as to whether or not the prepaid card 11 has been intruduced into the inlet slit 23 of machine 20. If the answer is "Yes" at step S2, the card drive motor is energized in response to an electric signal from the first card detector 31 under control of the controller 33 to drive the b&.t conveyor 36 towards the magnetic reading head 32. At step S3, the controller 33 reads out the recorded informabion of card 11 and causes the program to proceed to step S4 where the controller 33 is applied with an input signal indicative of the fare adjustment information. At the following step S5, the controller 33 executes processing of the fare adjustment and causes the program to proceed to step S6 where the controller 33 rewrites the recorded information of card 11 to verify the rewritten information at step S7. Thereafter, the prepaid car 11 is transferred by movement of the belt conveyor 36 toward the outlet slit 24, and the card drive motor is temporarily dcenergized under control of the controller 33 to retain the prepaid card 11 at the outlet slit 24.
11 When the program proceeds to step S8, the printing module 42 is activated under control of the controller 33 to print the contents of fare adjustment on the paper strip, and subsequently the cutter 43 is activated under control of the controller 33 to shear the printed paper into the predetermined length for making out a fare adjustment voucher 12. In this instance, the voucher drive motors are energized under control of the controller 33 to transfer the fare adjustment voucher 12 toward the outlet slit 25 by means of the belt conveyors 410, 430 and the turnover mechanism 420 and to deliver it from the outlet slit 25. When the program proceeds to step S9, the card drive motor is energized in response to an electric signal from the voucher detector 44 under control of the controller 33 to deliver the prepaid card I from the outlet slit 24 at the same time when the voucher 12 is delivered from the outlet slit When the fare has been paid in cash, the controiler 33 determines a "Yes" answer at step S1 and ii 20 causes the program to proceed to .tep SO10 where the :i printing module 42 is activated under control of the controller 33 to print the contents of fare adjustment on the paper strip drawn out of supply reel 41, and subsequently the cutter 43 is activated under control of the controller 33 to shear the printed paper in the predetermined length for making out a fare adjustment 12 i ~--rr voucher 12. As the following step Sil, the voucher drive motors are energized under control of the controller 33 to transfer the fare adjustment voucher 12 toward the outlet slit 25 by means of the belt conveyors 410, 430 and the turnover mechanism 420 and to deliver it from the outlet slit Although in the embodiment of Figure 2, the paper strip drawn out of supply reel 41 is printed by the Sprinting module 42 and is subsequently sheared by the cutter 43, the supply reel 41 may be replaced with a conventional paper supplier 41A as shown in Figure 5.
