  • Daily newspapers are often used for advertising purposes or magazines with vouchers that a customer, for example in a supermarket can redeem the advertised To be able to buy items at a reduced price.
  • vouchers or vouchers are machine-readable designed, i.e. they are with a bar code or the like provided of the value, the date of issue, the expiry date etc. of the voucher.
  • This object is achieved by a device solved which one the voucher inserted in a feeder for scanning on the reading unit in a first Direction of transport passing transport device and a cancellation unit or a - in the first transport direction seen - arranged after the reading unit Shredder unit that the voucher through Transport device can be fed and which of the Reading unit invalidated voucher.
  • the voucher is inserted into the feeder and for scanning from the transport device passed the reading unit. After being removed from the reader has been read in, it is directly by a cancellation device arranged in the device devalued, preferably by a shredder crushed for devaluation. Because the voucher removed from access before reading and then is devalued or destroyed, prevents the invention Device an abuse in an elegant way of the voucher by redeeming it again.
  • the device promotes the transport facility the voucher in one of the first transport direction opposite second transport direction and returns it from the feeder when the reading unit does not properly value the voucher can determine. This is to prevent that a possibly still valid voucher from the reading unit cannot be evaluated, is destroyed and the customer loses their voucher.
  • a flatbed scanner is particularly suitable as a reading unit, on the scanning surface the voucher for scanning is led past by the transport device, because flatbed scanners are characterized by a particularly high level of operational reliability and distinguish evaluation accuracy.
  • a flatbed scanner as a reading unit if a conveyor belt is proposed as the transport device, that running across the direction of transport Transport rollers is stretched and between the Transport rollers more tensioned, facing the flatbed scanner Band section at least partially on the scanning surface of the flatbed scanner.
  • the shredder unit in the first transport direction seen arranged after the second transport roller.
  • a reading pen as a reading unit, the on a carrier that can be moved transversely to the transport direction is attached.
  • the reading pen is used to scan the voucher moved over the voucher with the help of the carrier and evaluated the voucher in this way.
  • the device compared to a device that has a Flatbed scanner used, be small, because the reading pen is less compared to a flatbed scanner Takes up construction volume.
  • the device in an electronic cash register to arrange.
  • the document is used the cash register as a feeder for the device and the transport device arranged after the document feed the cash register promotes the voucher at the arranged in a printing device of the cash register Reading unit over.
  • the shredder facility is at seen this embodiment in the first transport direction arranged after the printing device. With one like that trained cash register can the cashier first record and settle the regular goods. If the customer presents a voucher, the cashier can the voucher in the cash register of the cash register introduce the transport device the Promotes voucher in the printing device.
  • Value of the voucher sent to the control of the cash register can be forwarded using the value the registered amount.
  • the transport facility promotes the correct determination of the voucher the cash register the voucher in the Shredder facility, which then to the voucher Devalue crushed. Instead of crushing, the Voucher can also be validated by printing applied by the existing printing device becomes.
  • the imprint preferably makes the machine-readable Part of the voucher illegible.
  • a reading unit in particular a reading pen that is attached to a cross to the direction of transport of the voucher movable print head carrier the printing device is attached.
  • FIG. 1 shows one Device according to the invention for evaluating and devaluing machine-readable vouchers.
  • the Device 10 has a housing 14, on which in the figure Front 16 shown on the left, a feeder 18 for the Voucher 12 is trained.
  • a transport device 20 is arranged in the housing, which consist of a first pair of transport rollers 22a and 22b and a second pair of transport rollers 24a and 24b consists.
  • the first pair of transport rollers 22a and 22b is arranged and extends immediately behind the feeder 18 along a predetermined transport route 26, along the voucher 12 into the housing 14 of the device 10 is promoted.
  • the transport rollers 24a and 24b of the second A pair also run across transport route 26 and are along this distance from the first pair Transport rollers 22a and 22b arranged.
  • Both the transport rollers 22a and 22b of the first pair as well Transport rollers 24a and 24b of the second pair have one roller surface made of an elastic material, lie against each other under tension and define a transport gap into which the voucher 12 can be inserted is.
  • a drive not shown, drives this first pair of transport rollers 22a and 22b and the second Pair of transport rollers 24a and 24b synchronized with each other in a first transport direction in which the voucher 12 is promoted in the housing 14, and in one to this opposite second transport direction in the voucher 12 through the feed 18 from the housing 14 is transported.
  • a flat bed scanner 28 is arranged, with which the machine-readable printed on the voucher 12 Code can be scanned.
  • the flatbed scanner 28 stands over lines 30 with a controller 32 connected below the flatbed scanner 28 and the transport device 20 is arranged.
  • the controller 32 evaluates that from the flatbed scanner 28 data, controls the drive (not shown) of the transport device 20 and actuates one along the transport path 26 in the first transport direction seen after the second pair of transport rollers 24a and 24b arranged switch 33 and one arranged behind it Shredder unit 34.
  • the shredder unit 34 has two transverse to the transport direction running, parallel shredder rollers 36a and 36b.
  • the shredder roller 36a has on her Shell surface several, spaced, circumferential Knife cutting edges 38a, with corresponding ones on the second shredder roller 36b formed knife edges 36b are engaged. Seen in the first direction of transport after the pair of shredder rollers 36a and 36b is a container 40 arranged in the of the shredder unit 34 shredded voucher 12 is funded.
  • the controller 32 To evaluate the machine-readable voucher 12 becomes the voucher 12 in the feeder 18 of the housing 14 introduced. As soon as the front edge of the voucher 12 in protrudes the feeder 18, detects one below the transport route 26 first sensor 42 arranged near the feed 18 the front edge of the voucher 12 and gives to the controller 32 a start signal. Activated by this start signal the controller 32 the drive (not shown) the transport device 20 through which the first pair Transport rollers 22a and 22b and the second pair of transport rollers 24a and 24b driven in the first transport direction becomes. The moment the leading edge of the voucher 12 in the transport gap of the first pair Transport rollers 22a and 22b arrives, capture them the voucher 12 and pull it along the transport route 26 into the housing 14.
  • the flatbed scanner 28 capable of being on the voucher To read 12 given information, he gives the evaluated Data to the controller 32. The control 32 then determines whether it is a valid, too accepting voucher 12 is or not. Will the Voucher 12 not accepted by controller 32, activated the drive (not shown) of the transport device 20 such that the transport rollers 22a and 22b and the transport rollers 24a and 24b the voucher 12 in the opposite second transport direction promote the housing 14.
  • the controller 32 accepts those from the flatbed scanner 28 acquired data, it sets the course 33 towards the shredder unit 34 and activates it again the drive (not shown) of the transport device 20 in the first transport direction so that this promotes the voucher 12 further into the housing 14. At the same time, it operates the shredder unit 34, the Shredder rollers 36a and 36b by a second drive (not shown) are rotated. The evaluated Voucher 12 is then issued by the transportation facility 20 fed to the shredder unit 34, the the voucher 12 by means of their shredder rollers 36a and 36b crushed and conveyed into the container 40. To this A properly read voucher 12, after the controller 32 stores the acquired data has devalued.
