The new Information reading device has the advantage that the input data are stored in a memory can as they are just recorded in a used invoice, with each detailed information group is always read out in the form in which you receive the common rubric information precedes all is represented by a heading designation so as to constitute a record information unit. Several serially arranged recording information units each of which is preceded by the common rubric information are processed by the data processing device processed, thereby reducing the required capacity of the memory and the input operation is simplified.

Further refinements relating to the special design of the new information readout device of the invention are specified in the subclaims. .

The invention is based on one in the drawing illustrated embodiment explained in more detail. In detail shows

se establishment.
An input device 12, for example input numbers, uuii, and the detailed information that is read out in this way are passed on simultaneously via AND gates 14, 15, 16. A code detector 17 detects the positioning code of the category information WI, W2 and the special positioning code of the detailed information Dl. An output signal from the AND element 14 is given to a processing device 19 via an OR element 18. The output signals of AND gates 15, 16 are written into buffer memories 20, 21.

The signals which designate the positioning code of the category information W1, W2 and which are sent by the code editor 17 are detected, or the rubric information command signal Λ1, Λ2 are used as a reset command to flip-flops 22, 23 and also as a set command to a flip-flop 24 each given. A set output signal from the flip-flop 22 is sent as a drive signal to the AND gate 15 given together with a reset output signal from flip-flop 23, the set output signal is given as a drive signal to the AND gate It. The set output signal from the Flip-flops 22, 23 are given to an OR gate 2i. An inverter 26, which with the output de: OR gate 25 is connected, outputs a control signal to the AND gate 14.

In the set state, the flip-flop 24 gives a signal to the OR gates 25, 27 and the AND gate 28 to also a delay circuit 29. This Delay circuit 29 causes a delay time required to read out the information from the buffer memory 20 and gives an output gnal during a period of time during which the information from a further buffer memory 2

will continue to be read. An output from the delay circuit 29 is used as a reset command to the flip-flop 24 and also to the OR gates 25, 27 and an AND gate 30. The information read out from the buffer memories 20, 21 is given to the AND gates 28, 30, whose output signal from the inverter 31, which is connected to the OR gate 27, controls as a drive signal the AND element »3.

In this circuit arrangement, the input device 12 gives the information memory 11 data which are shown in of a used bill are recorded as shown in Fig. 2 (A). In the initial state the flip-flops 22, 23 and 24 are in their set state and do not give an output signal the OR gates 25,27. As a result, the inverters 26, 31 generate an output signal with a logical one Level of »1«.

If a readout command is given under this condition, an output signal from the inverter 31 switches the AND gate 13 through. The information stored in the information memory 11 is therefore sequentially read out.

The readout command causes a heading information command signal Λ1 which precedes the heading information / 71 to be read out first from the information shown in Fig. 2 (A), which is stored in the information memory U. The position code is detected by the code detector 17 and then the category information command signal hi causes the flip-flop 22 to be set.

The set output signal from the flip-flop 22 is given via the OR gate 25 to the inverter 26, whereby the AND gate 14 is blocked and the AND gate 15 is switched through. Because about this Time the flip-flop 23 is reset, the AND gate 15 is switched through, whereby the rubric information // 1 is read out from the information memory 11 and stored in the buffer memory 20 will.

After the rubric information Hl is read out, the positioning code for the rubric information / 72 read out. When the code detector 17 detects this positioning code, the flip-flop 23 of the rubric information command signal /? 2 is set, whereby the AND gate 15 is blocked and the AND gate 16 is switched through. The assigned Column information / 72 following the positioning code is stored in the buffer memory 21.

The rubric information / 71, / 72 read out from the information memory 11 is written into the buffer memories 20, 21, respectively. When the positioning code of the detailed information labeled Di is read from the information memory U, it is detected by the code detector 17 and the flip-flops 22, 23 are set by the detailed information command signal /, the AND gates 15, 16 are blocked and the flip-flop 24 set. A set output signal from the flip-flop 24 is given to the OR gates 25, 27, whereby the AND gate 28 is durehgesehallet. At this point in time, the AND element 13 connected to the OR element 27 via the inverter 21 is blocked, as a result of which the reading out of information from the information memory 11 is terminated. The iiuhi ikmiY '! Previously stored in the oem buffer memory 21 in.iiiuii H \ is read out via the AND element 28 and uln-i:; \ n ODI .R ■ (lliftl IS and sent to a ¹ - ·.: !!!: ·! ', huini.' Ι ¹ * If information is completely read out from the buffer memory 20, an output signal from the delay circuit 29 rises in order to echo through the AND element 30, whereby rubric information / 72 stored in the buffer memory 21 is given to the processing device 19 and in addition, the flip-flop 24 is reset to its original switching state.

If the positioning code of the detailed information D \ is read out, the reading out of information from ίο the information memory 11 is ended and the category information / 71, / 72, which is stored in the buffer memories 20, 21, is read out one after the other to the processing device 19. If the rubric information / 72 is completely read from the buffer memory 21, the output signal of the delay circuit 29 falls and the output signals of the inverters 26, 31 rise. The AND gates 13, 14 are switched through in order to read the detailed information DX from the information memory 11. This detailed information Dt is then given to the data processing device 19 via the AND element 14 and the OR element 18. The processing device 19 thus obtains a record information unit which consists of each information expression preceded by the heading information / 71, / 72.

If the detailed information DI is completely read from the information memory 11, the the following detailed information D2 is read out from this. In this case the positioning codc the detail information D2 detected by the code detector 17, whereby the flip-flop 24 by the detail information command signal / are set and the AND gates 13, 14 are blocked while the AND gate 28 is switched through. At this point that is also AND gate 30 switched through by an output signal from the delay circuit 29 As before was mentioned, the rubric information / 71, / 72. which is read from the buffer memories 20, 21 in each case. and the detail information D2, which is from the information memory 11 is read out one after the other to the data processing device 19. This data processing device 19 processes a record information unit extracted from the Detailir.for mation D2, which contains the common rubric information / 71. / 72 precedes.

Although the z. B. by the heading names Hi. / 72 designated rubric information and the following multiple detailed information, z. B. is denoted by the designations Dl, D2, D3, is stored serially in the information memory 11, each printout of the detailed information is now always read out and given to the data processing unit 19 in which the common rubric information // 1, / 72 precedes which from the buffers 20, 2! is read out in each case.

If in the information memory 11 also the ii F i g. Information shown in FIG. 2 (B) is stored in addition to that shown in FIG. 11 shown in FIG. 2 (B) read out after the last z. B. with D labeled detailed information of the previous, i F 1 g. ? - (A) is read out. and dt positioning codc is detected by the code detector t and then a rubric information command signal; '' 5 generated. In the case of FIG. 2 (B) has the rubric information; tion / 71 has the same content as that of the 1 · 'ig. 2 (A) ui is therefore not stored anew in the information memory 11. Only the rubric information A

FIG. 2 (B) showing a more different content than the heading information H2 of FIG. 2 (A) is stored in the information memory 11. If the aforementioned positioning code is detected by the code detector 17, the flip-flop 23 is set to pass through the AND gate 16, and the OR gate 25 receives a signal, whereby the AND gate 14 is blocked. The rubric information H2 of FIG. 2 (B), which is read out from the information memory 11, replaces the category information Hl of FIG. 2 (A) which was previously stored in the buffer memory 21. At this point in time, therefore, the rubric information HX of FIG. 2 (A) and A / 2 of FIG. 2 are in the buffer memories 20, 21. 2 (B) each saved. The z. For example , detailed information labeled DX, Dl. Di and Di , which is shown in FIG. 2 (B), is read out and always given to the data processing device 19 in the form in which the common rubric information Hl of FIG. 2 ( A) and the new rubric information Hl of Fig. 2 (B) precedes.

The data processing device 19 is z. B. formed from a memory in the respective Records information units collects specified values and required arithmetic operations executes, and has z. B. a printer and a card punch.

In the above-described example, the rubric information is divided into two groups, z. B. are denoted by category designations HX, Hl . However, it is also possible to divide the rubric information into a larger number of groups. Or this category information can be found in the information

, o tion memory 11 in the form of a single group get saved. A number of buffer memories is preferably provided which corresponds to the number of subdivided groups of the rubric information. So it is B. possible a certain number of

To provide _r> buffers and associated units in series, and selectively use one of the buffer memory corresponding to the way in which the category information is divided, is modified whereby the total capacity of the buffer memory according to the respective requirements. Of course, the new information readout device can be modified and changed in the most varied of ways without departing from the teaching according to the invention.
