Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the issue of tickets, receipts ... forming the printed summary of a particular transaction such as a purchase, an access authorization ..., in the form of an invoice, a ticket entrance ...
  • the recording devices of a payment edit a receipt or an invoice of the transaction carried out.
  • This receipt is given to the user by the cashier or the person in charge.
  • some devices are provided with a command by which the ticket is edited at the request of the user and after printing is ejected.
  • the means implemented to achieve this improvement are a source of increase in the price of the device and add to maintenance needs, especially as any organ whose operation is subject to a user, inevitably undergoes damage .
  • the edition resulting from the expression of a will of the user is made with a certain delay at term of which only the ticket is delivered by an ejector. During this period, the user may have forgotten, having in the meantime attended to other occupations.
  • the installation of an audible or visual alert that starts at the end of printing with, as a corollary, an increase in the complexity of the device.
  • thermal printers The performance of thermal printers is constantly increasing, particularly with regard to the printing speed and the cutting time for tickets from a roll of paper.
  • the invention is intended to propose an alternative solution to the question of the unnecessary edition of tickets or coupons which, by the optimal use of modern performing printers, allows to leave the user no initiative other than that of grab the ticket for him.
  • the device thus no longer fears the damage due to misuse nor the increase in operations of the cost of maintenance.
  • the means of the invention are further minimized with respect to the hardware, the commands of the printer being provided in software form in response to the detection or not of an event because of the user indicating his will to take possession of the ticket.
  • the method of the invention has the advantage of eliminating any unnecessary or unused printing. Indeed, the printing is performed simultaneously with the extraction of the ticket by the user; there is no delay between the expression of the will of the user to obtain a ticket and even obtaining this ticket. Thus, the user can not have forgotten to take what he wished to have.
  • the device For the sake of saving paper, if the device has not detected the receipt of the ticket by the user within a specified time, the ticket is retracted inside the machine so that the unused paper included enter the print head and the gripping area is not lost.
  • the invention mainly relates to tickets detached by cutting a printed section at the end of a continuous ribbon. It can also be applied to pre-cut tickets.
  • the second object of the invention is the printer which makes it possible to implement the above method.
  • This comprises a frame carrying a printing head cooperating with a motorized capstan and defining downstream of these bodies a guide for the movement of the ticket, so that the guide opens out of the frame by an opening equipped with a paper presence detector while the printer comprises a detector of the aforementioned event.
  • the invention comprises a frame 1 represented very schematic to which are connected in a known manner on the one hand a printhead 2 and secondly a capstan 3 driving a support ribbon P for printing under the head 2, this capstan being connected to a drive motor 4.
  • a print controller 5 controls the operation of the print head 2 and the capstan 3 and their synchronism.
  • the apparatus of the invention also comprises cutting members 6 to detach a printed ticket of a carrier tape, in general the thermal paper, these cutting members comprising a fixed part 6a and a movable part 6b, which is connected to an actuator 7.
  • these organs 6 in the figure in the form of a guillotine. There are many other embodiments of cutting members for performing this function.
  • the actuator 7 is also controlled by the controller 5.
  • the frame 1 Downstream of the cutting members 6, the frame 1 defines a guide 8 for the passage of the paper P which opens out of the apparatus through a slot-shaped opening 9.
  • the frame comprises a paper presence detector 10 whose output is connected to the controller 5. It also has a light device 11 which can be activated when the paper has come out of the slot 9 in a state to be entered by a user.
  • the frame comprises a sensor 12 of the tension exerted on the paper, this sensor being also connected to the controller 5.
  • controller 5 is in communication with a microprocessor 13 from which it will process the data to be printed on the paper ribbon by means of the print head 2 and the capstan 3.
  • the free end of the paper ribbon is located at point A in the figure.
  • the controller 5 receives from the microprocessor 13 all the data to be printed on the ribbon to make a ticket. It stores this data in an appropriate memory and at the same time controls the operation of the capstan 3 so that the free edge of the paper ribbon located at point A is led to a point B located outside the apparatus out of the slot 9.
  • the user takes the ticket by the end reached point B, which leads to create a voltage in the ribbon which is recognized by the detector 12, for example by contacting the paper on the latter.
  • the signal emitted by the detector 12 is interpreted by the controller 5 as a print command on the ribbon of the data that it kept in memory.
  • the speed of printing is sufficient for the user to feel that it is he who appropriates the ticket by its action.
  • the controller 5 comprises means for detecting a rotation of the capstan 3 by the engine 4. This detection instantly generates the order of ticket printing and delivery as described previously.
  • the detector 12 is replaced by a detector 14 for the presence of the hand of the user (this detector may be a heat detector, a proximity detector, a photoelectric cell, etc.). Transmitted to the controller 5, the output signal of this detector generates the immediate printing of the ticket.
  • the controller controls the tape cutting section by the knife 6 has becomes a ticket in the hand of the user.
  • the device is ready to edit a next ticket again.
  • the sensor 12 is therefore silent with respect to the controller 5 and the latter counts a delay time at the end of which it erases the data that it had previously placed in memory. At the same time, it controls the motor 4 of the capstan 3 in the opposite direction to that of the printing to retract the ticket in order to pass the free edge of the latter from point B to point A of the figure.
  • the controller 5 will have kept in mind the fact that it has already printed the signs on a ticket and, at the next editing operation, it will not repeat this printing phase simultaneously with the displacement of the front edge of point A to point B.
