Description

本発明は、たとえば交通機関の定期券や銀行等の金融機関のキャッシュカードとして使用される磁気カード、接触式ＩＣカード、非接触式ＩＣカード等の媒体の搬送、発行を行うカード処理装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a card processing apparatus that carries and issues a medium such as a magnetic card, a contact IC card, and a non-contact IC card used as a commuter pass for transportation or a cash card of a financial institution such as a bank.

従来、この種の装置としては、特開２００５−１００１７０（特許文献１）に記載のものがある。特許文献１の図３によれば、カード供給部３２に垂直方向に蓄えられたベースカード１２が水平方向に繰り出されて必要事項が印刷されて新規カードとして発行される。   Conventionally, as this type of apparatus, there is one described in JP-A-2005-100170 (Patent Document 1).

特開２００５−１００１７０号公報JP 2005-100170 A

カード処理装置において搬送路の短縮や装置の小型化等を目的として、カードの搬送路を複数設置し、各搬送路間のカードの受け渡しを行うために、カードを回転させることで搬送方向を変更するカード回転機構を配置することが考えられる。一般的にカードの搬送方法としては、搬送路上にある2つの対向した搬送ローラがカードを挟んで圧接した状態で片側の搬送ローラを回転させ、カードを搬送ローラに追従させることで搬送を行う方法が使用されている。この搬送方法でのカード回転機構の一例を図７を用いて説明する。   In order to shorten the transport path and reduce the size of the card processing device, multiple card transport paths are installed and the transport direction is changed by rotating the card to deliver the cards between the transport paths. It is conceivable to arrange a card rotation mechanism to be used. In general, the card is transported by rotating the transport roller on one side while the two opposing transport rollers on the transport path are pressed against each other with the card in between, so that the card follows the transport roller. Is used. An example of the card rotation mechanism in this transport method will be described with reference to FIG.

まず、搬送ローラ１００を回転軸とした回転部を、回転部の搬送方向が搬送路１１０の方向に合う位置まで回転させて、搬送路１１０上の搬送ローラ対１１１、１１２に挟持されているカード（図示せず）を、回転部の中央までカードを搬送し、搬送ローラ１００、１０１でカードを挟持した状態で保持する。そして、搬送ローラ１００を回転軸として回転部の搬送路方向が搬送路１２０の方向に合う位置まで回転させた後、搬送ローラ１００、１０１を回転させることによって搬送路１２０へカードを搬送する。この一連の動作により、搬送路間のカードの受け渡しを行う。   First, the rotation unit having the conveyance roller 100 as a rotation axis is rotated to a position where the conveyance direction of the rotation unit matches the direction of the conveyance path 110, and the card is sandwiched between the conveyance roller pairs 111 and 112 on the conveyance path 110. (Not shown) conveys the card to the center of the rotating part and holds the card with the conveying rollers 100 and 101 sandwiched. Then, after the conveyance roller 100 is rotated to a position where the conveyance path direction of the rotating portion matches the direction of the conveyance path 120 with the rotation axis as the rotation axis, the cards are conveyed to the conveyance path 120 by rotating the conveyance rollers 100 and 101. Through this series of operations, cards are transferred between the transport paths.

ここで、回転部を回転させたときに、回転軸である搬送ローラ１００が回転部に完全に追従して回るとカードが移動することはないが、搬送ローラ１１０の負荷等により回転量が安定せず、回転中に搬送ローラ１００、１０１にて狭持したカードの位置が変わることがある。また、カードの移動量も一定ではなく回転後のカード位置にバラツキが起きることがある。そのため、移動したカードが受け取り側の搬送路ガイドに接触し、回転部が回転できなくなる場合がある。   Here, when the rotation unit is rotated, the card does not move if the conveyance roller 100 as the rotation axis rotates completely following the rotation unit, but the rotation amount is stabilized by the load of the conveyance roller 110 and the like. Instead, the position of the card held by the transport rollers 100 and 101 during rotation may change. Further, the amount of movement of the card is not constant, and the card position after rotation may vary. For this reason, the moved card may come into contact with the transport path guide on the receiving side, and the rotating unit may not be able to rotate.

このような回転中のカードの移動に基づく不具合を避けるためには、カード受け取り側の搬送路ガイドをカードの移動量分逃がさなければならない。しかし、カード受け渡しの搬送路ガイド間の隙間が広くなると、カードが搬送路ガイドから逃げ、カードが搬送路ガイドに引っ掛り易くなり、カードジャムの要因になる。そのため、カード回転機構側の搬送ガイドを広がった隙間分延長する必要がある。その結果、カード回転機構部の搬送ガイドは「カード長さ＋カードの最大ズレ量」の長さが必要となり、カード回転機構が大きくなり、延いては装置も大きくなるという問題がある。   In order to avoid such a problem due to the movement of the rotating card, it is necessary to escape the card path side conveyance path guide by the amount of movement of the card. However, when the gap between the card path conveying path guides becomes wide, the card escapes from the card path guide, and the card is easily caught by the card path guide, causing a card jam. Therefore, it is necessary to extend the conveyance guide on the card rotation mechanism side by an enlarged gap. As a result, the conveyance guide of the card rotation mechanism section needs to have a length of “card length + maximum card shift amount”, and there is a problem that the card rotation mechanism becomes larger and the apparatus becomes larger.

上記の課題を解決するために、本発明は、カード回転機構内のカード位置を検知するためのセンサを設け、カード回転機構でのカード位置のズレを補正することで、より小型化したカード処理装置を提供する。   In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention provides a sensor for detecting a card position in a card rotation mechanism, and corrects a card position shift in the card rotation mechanism, thereby further reducing the card processing. Providing equipment.

上記の手段により、回転中のカード位置のズレの影響を受けることなく、回転後も安定したカード位置を得られるため、カード回転機構の搬送路を短縮することができ、カード回転機構を小さくし、小型化したカード処理装置とすることができる。   By the above means, a stable card position can be obtained even after rotation without being affected by the deviation of the rotating card position, so the conveyance path of the card rotation mechanism can be shortened, and the card rotation mechanism can be made smaller. Thus, a downsized card processing apparatus can be obtained.

本発明の実施例の基本的な構成を図５〜図６の構成図を例に用いて以下に説明する。図５〜６は２つの搬送路を持つカード処理装置のカード回転機構部周辺を示した図である。本機構は搬送路ａ１、搬送路ｂ２とカード回転機構３の大きく３つの機構から構成される。   The basic configuration of the embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the configuration diagrams of FIGS. 5 to 6 are views showing the periphery of the card rotation mechanism of the card processing apparatus having two transport paths. This mechanism is mainly composed of three mechanisms: a conveyance path a1, a conveyance path b2, and a card rotation mechanism 3.

搬送路ａ１は、搬送路上のカード２２を挟持して搬送するための搬送ローラａ４と、その搬送ローラａ４を駆動するための搬送モータａ５、カード回転機構３から渡されるカード２２の先端位置をガイドするための搬送路ａガイド６から構成される。搬送路ｂ２についても搬送路ａ１と同様に、搬送ローラｂ７、搬送モータｂ８、搬送路ｂガイド９から構成される。   The conveyance path a1 guides the conveyance roller a4 for nipping and conveying the card 22 on the conveyance path, the conveyance motor a5 for driving the conveyance roller a4, and the leading end position of the card 22 passed from the card rotation mechanism 3. It is comprised from the conveyance path a guide 6 for doing. Similarly to the conveyance path a1, the conveyance path b2 includes a conveyance roller b7, a conveyance motor b8, and a conveyance path b guide 9.

カード回転機構３はカード２２を回転させるための回転部１０、回転部１０と一体となったギア１１、ギア１１と連結し回転部１０を回転させるための回転モータ１２、回転部１０の回転軸方向の位置（搬送方向）が搬送路ａ１の向きに合った状態を検知するためのセンサａ１３、回転部１０の回転軸方向の位置（搬送方向）が搬送路ｂ２の向きにあった状態を検知するためのセンサｂ１４から構成される。   The card rotating mechanism 3 includes a rotating unit 10 for rotating the card 22, a gear 11 integrated with the rotating unit 10, a rotating motor 12 for connecting to the gear 11 and rotating the rotating unit 10, and a rotating shaft of the rotating unit 10. A sensor a13 for detecting a state in which the position of the direction (conveyance direction) matches the direction of the conveyance path a1, and a state in which the position (conveyance direction) of the rotating unit 10 in the rotation axis direction is in the direction of the conveyance path b2. Sensor b14.

この中の回転部１０は、搬送路から渡されたカード２２を挟持し、カード２２の保持、搬送を行うための搬送ローラｃ１５、搬送ローラｄ１６、搬送路ａ１、搬送路ｂ２から渡されるカード２２の先端位置をガイドするための搬送ガイド１７から構成される。ここで搬送ローラｃ１５は回転部１０の回転軸を共用しており、その搬送ローラｃ１５を駆動するための搬送モータｃ１８は回転部１０の外のフレームに固定されている。また、搬送モータａ５、搬送モータｂ８、搬送モータｃ１８はカード２２の搬送量を、回転モータ１２は回転部１０の回転量を、制御できるように全てステッピングモータとする。   The rotating unit 10 in this holds the card 22 passed from the transport path, holds the card 22, and transports the card 22 from the transport roller c15, transport roller d16, transport path a1, and transport path b2. It is comprised from the conveyance guide 17 for guiding the front-end | tip position. Here, the conveyance roller c15 shares the rotation axis of the rotation unit 10, and a conveyance motor c18 for driving the conveyance roller c15 is fixed to a frame outside the rotation unit 10. Further, the transport motor a5, the transport motor b8, and the transport motor c18 are all stepping motors so that the transport amount of the card 22 can be controlled and the rotation motor 12 can control the rotation amount of the rotating unit 10.

本構成の場合、搬送ローラｃ１５と搬送ローラｄ１６とでカード２２を狭持した状態で、搬送路ａ１から搬送路ｂ２へ回転部１０を回転させたときは、搬送路ｂ２から離れる方向にカード２２のズレが発生する。また、搬送路ｂ２から搬送路ａ１へ回転部１０を回転させたときは搬送路ａ１に近づく方向にカード２２のズレが発生する。   In the case of this configuration, when the rotating unit 10 is rotated from the conveyance path a1 to the conveyance path b2 with the card 22 held between the conveyance rollers c15 and d16, the card 22 is moved away from the conveyance path b2. Deviation occurs. Further, when the rotating unit 10 is rotated from the transport path b2 to the transport path a1, the card 22 is displaced in the direction approaching the transport path a1.

上記の基本構成に、回転部１０内のカード２２の位置を検知するためのセンサを設置し、カード位置のズレの修正を行う。センサの設置位置とその機構での動作についての具体的な実施例を以下に示す。   A sensor for detecting the position of the card 22 in the rotating unit 10 is installed in the above basic configuration, and the displacement of the card position is corrected. Specific examples of the sensor installation position and the operation of the mechanism will be described below.

本発明の実施例１を図１を用いて説明する。本機構は上記の基本構成にセンサｃ１９を追加した構成である。センサｃ１９は回転部１０に取り付けられており、回転部１０にあるカード２２のカード端を検知するためのセンサである。   A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. This mechanism has a configuration in which a sensor c19 is added to the above basic configuration. The sensor c <b> 19 is attached to the rotating unit 10 and is a sensor for detecting the card end of the card 22 in the rotating unit 10.

まず、搬送路ａ１から搬送路ｂ２にカード２２の受け渡しを行う動作を説明する。回転モータ１２を起動し、センサａ１３が検知するまで回転部１０を回転させ、回転部１０の搬送方向を搬送路ａ１の方向に合わせる。搬送モータａ５、搬送モータｃ１８を起動し、搬送ローラａ４、搬送ローラｃ１５、搬送ローラｄ１６を回転させ搬送路ａ１上のカード２２を回転部１０へ搬送する。センサｃ１９がカード端を検知した（ライトからダークに切り替わった）時点から、搬送モータａ５、搬送モータｃ１８を逆転させ、所定の距離分（例えば１ｍｍ）カードを戻した位置で搬送モータａ５、搬送モータｃ１８を停止する。   First, an operation for delivering the card 22 from the transport path a1 to the transport path b2 will be described. The rotary motor 12 is started and the rotating unit 10 is rotated until the sensor a13 detects it, and the conveying direction of the rotating unit 10 is adjusted to the direction of the conveying path a1. The conveyance motor a5 and the conveyance motor c18 are activated, and the conveyance roller a4, the conveyance roller c15, and the conveyance roller d16 are rotated to convey the card 22 on the conveyance path a1 to the rotating unit 10. From the time when the sensor c19 detects the end of the card (switched from light to dark), the transport motor a5 and the transport motor c18 are reversed, and the transport motor a5 and the transport motor are returned at a position where the card is returned by a predetermined distance (for example, 1 mm). Stop c18.

回転モータ１８を起動し、センサｂ１４が検知するまで回転部１０を回転させ、回転部１０の搬送方向を搬送路ｂ２の方向に合わせる。この回転中にカード２２が搬送路ｂ２から離れる方向へ移動する場合があるため、回転中にセンサｃ１９がカード端を検知した（ライトからダークに切り替わった）場合ごとに、搬送モータｃ１８を起動し、搬送路ｂ２に近づく方向に所定の距離分（例えば１ｍｍ）カード２２を搬送することで、カード位置のズレを修正し、回転部１０からのカード２２の飛び出しを防止する。   The rotation motor 18 is started, the rotation unit 10 is rotated until the sensor b14 detects it, and the conveyance direction of the rotation unit 10 is adjusted to the direction of the conveyance path b2. Since the card 22 may move away from the conveyance path b2 during this rotation, the conveyance motor c18 is activated every time the sensor c19 detects the card end during the rotation (switched from light to dark). The card 22 is transported by a predetermined distance (for example, 1 mm) in a direction approaching the transport path b2, thereby correcting the misalignment of the card position and preventing the card 22 from jumping out of the rotating unit 10.

回転部１０を搬送路ｂ２の方向にあわせた後、搬送モータｂ８、搬送モータｃ１８を起動し、搬送ローラｂ７、搬送ローラｃ１５、搬送ローラｄ１６を回転させ回転部１０のカード２２を搬送路ｂ２に搬送し、カード２２の受け渡しを行う。   After aligning the rotation unit 10 in the direction of the conveyance path b2, the conveyance motor b8 and the conveyance motor c18 are started, the conveyance roller b7, the conveyance roller c15, and the conveyance roller d16 are rotated, and the card 22 of the rotation unit 10 is moved to the conveyance path b2. Then, the card 22 is transferred.

次に、搬送路ｂ２から搬送路ａ１にカード２２の受け渡しを行う動作を説明する。回転モータ１２を起動し、センサｂ１４が検知するまで回転部１０を回転させ、回転部１０の搬送方向を搬送路ｂ２の方向に合わせる。搬送モータｂ８、搬送モータｃ１８を起動し、搬送ローラｂ７、搬送ローラｃ１５、搬送ローラｄ１６を回転させ搬送路ｂ２上のカード２２を回転部１０へ搬送する。センサｃ１９がカード端を検知した（ライトからダークに切り替わった）時点から、所定の距離分（例えば１ｍｍ）カード２２を搬送して搬送モータｂ８、搬送モータｃ１８を停止する。   Next, an operation for transferring the card 22 from the transport path b2 to the transport path a1 will be described. The rotary motor 12 is started and the rotating unit 10 is rotated until the sensor b14 detects it, and the conveying direction of the rotating unit 10 is adjusted to the direction of the conveying path b2. The conveyance motor b8 and the conveyance motor c18 are activated, and the conveyance roller b7, the conveyance roller c15, and the conveyance roller d16 are rotated to convey the card 22 on the conveyance path b2 to the rotating unit 10. From the time when the sensor c19 detects the card edge (switched from light to dark), the card 22 is conveyed by a predetermined distance (for example, 1 mm), and the conveyance motor b8 and the conveyance motor c18 are stopped.

回転モータ１２を起動し、センサａ１３が検知するまで回転部１０を回転させ、回転部１０の搬送方向を搬送路ａ１の方向に合わせる。この回転中にカード２２が搬送路ａ１に近づく方向へ移動する場合があるため、回転中にセンサｃ１９がカード端を検知した（ダークからライトに切り替わった）場合ごとに、搬送モータｃ１８を起動し、搬送路ａ１から離れる方向に所定の距離分（例えば１ｍｍ）カード２２を搬送することで、カード位置のズレを修正し、回転部１０からのカード２２の飛び出しを防止する。   The rotary motor 12 is started and the rotating unit 10 is rotated until the sensor a13 detects it, and the conveying direction of the rotating unit 10 is adjusted to the direction of the conveying path a1. Since the card 22 may move in the direction approaching the transport path a1 during this rotation, the transport motor c18 is activated every time the sensor c19 detects the card end during the rotation (switched from dark to light). The card 22 is conveyed by a predetermined distance (for example, 1 mm) in the direction away from the conveyance path a1, thereby correcting the misalignment of the card position and preventing the card 22 from jumping out of the rotating unit 10.

回転部１０を搬送路ａ１の方向にあわせた後、搬送モータａ５、搬送モータｃ１８を起動し、搬送ローラａ４、搬送ローラｃ１５、搬送ローラｄ１６を回転させ回転部１０のカード２２を搬送路ａ１に搬送し、カード２２の受け渡しを行う。   After aligning the rotation unit 10 in the direction of the conveyance path a1, the conveyance motor a5 and the conveyance motor c18 are activated, the conveyance roller a4, the conveyance roller c15, and the conveyance roller d16 are rotated, and the card 22 of the rotation unit 10 is moved to the conveyance path a1. Then, the card 22 is transferred.

以上の構成、動作とすることにより、回転部１０の搬送ガイド１７の長さは「カードの長さ＋ズレの修正量（本実施例１では、例えば前後１ｍｍずつ）」があれば良いため、カード回転機構３を小型化することができる。   With the above configuration and operation, the length of the conveyance guide 17 of the rotating unit 10 only needs to be “card length + correction amount of deviation (in this embodiment, for example, 1 mm before and after). The card rotation mechanism 3 can be reduced in size.

なお、回転部１０は、前回に回転させた状態の方向を基本位置（ホームポジション）として保持してもよいし、搬送路ａ１もしくは搬送路ｂ２のいずれかの方向をホームポジションとして、受け渡し動作が終了する毎にその位置にセットされるように構成してもよい。これは以下の実施例２でも同様である。   The rotating unit 10 may hold the direction of the state rotated last time as the basic position (home position), or perform the delivery operation with the direction of the transport path a1 or the transport path b2 as the home position. You may comprise so that it may be set to the position whenever it complete | finishes. The same applies to Example 2 below.

本発明の実施例２を図２〜図４を用いて説明する。本機構は上記の基本構成にセンサｄ２０、センサｅ２１を追加した構成である。センサｄ２０、センサｅ２１は回転部１０の外のフレームに取り付けられており、センサｄ２０は回転部１０を搬送路ａ１側に合わせたときの回転部１０にあるカード２２のカード端を検知するためのセンサ、センサｅ２１は回転部１０を搬送路ｂ２側に合わせたときの回転部１０にあるカード２２のカード端を検知するためのセンサである。ここで回転部１０の中心にカード２２がある状態を回転部１０でのカード２２の定位置として、センサｄ２０、センサｅ２１は定位置のカード２２が搬送路から離れる方向に所定の距離（例えば５ｍｍ）移動したときにカード端を検知する位置にそれぞれ取り付けている。   A second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. This mechanism has a configuration in which a sensor d20 and a sensor e21 are added to the above basic configuration. The sensor d20 and the sensor e21 are attached to a frame outside the rotating unit 10, and the sensor d20 detects the card end of the card 22 in the rotating unit 10 when the rotating unit 10 is set to the conveyance path a1 side. The sensor, sensor e21, is a sensor for detecting the card end of the card 22 in the rotating unit 10 when the rotating unit 10 is set to the conveyance path b2 side. Here, the state in which the card 22 is in the center of the rotating unit 10 is defined as a fixed position of the card 22 in the rotating unit 10, and the sensor d20 and the sensor e21 have a predetermined distance (for example, 5 mm) in the direction in which the card 22 at the fixed position is separated from the conveyance path. ) Each card is attached at a position where the card edge is detected when it is moved.

まず、搬送路ａ１から搬送路ｂ２にカード２２の受け渡しを行う動作を説明する。回転モータ１８を起動し、センサａ１３が検知するまで回転部１０を回転させ、回転部１０の搬送方向を搬送路ａ１の方向に合わせる。搬送モータａ５、搬送モータｃ１８を起動し、搬送ローラａ４、搬送ローラｃ１５、搬送ローラｄ１６を回転させ搬送路ａ１上のカード２２を回転部１０へ搬送する。センサｄ２０がカード端を検知した（ライトからダークに切り替わった）時点から、搬送モータａ５、搬送モータｃ１８を逆転させ回転部１０でのカード２２の定位置に戻る分のパルスを加え搬送モータａ５、搬送モータｃ１８を停止する。   First, an operation for delivering the card 22 from the transport path a1 to the transport path b2 will be described. The rotation motor 18 is started, the rotation unit 10 is rotated until the sensor a13 detects it, and the conveyance direction of the rotation unit 10 is adjusted to the direction of the conveyance path a1. The conveyance motor a5 and the conveyance motor c18 are activated, and the conveyance roller a4, the conveyance roller c15, and the conveyance roller d16 are rotated to convey the card 22 on the conveyance path a1 to the rotating unit 10. From the time when the sensor d20 detects the end of the card (switched from light to dark), the transport motor a5 and the transport motor c18 are reversely rotated to apply a pulse for returning to the fixed position of the card 22 in the rotating unit 10, and the transport motor a5, The conveyance motor c18 is stopped.

回転モータ１２に一定パルスを加え、回転部１０のカード２２が搬送路ｂ２側に飛び出した時にカード２２が搬送路ｂガイド９に当る手前の図３に示した位置で回転部１０を一旦停止させる。ここでカード２２のズレが小さくセンサｅ２１までカード端が到達していない場合（センサｅ２１がライト）は、カード２２が搬送路ｂ２から離れる方向に搬送モータｃ１８を起動し、センサｅ２１がカード端を検知した（ライトからダークに切り替わった）時点から、搬送モータｃ１８を逆転させ回転部１０でのカード２２の定位置に戻る分のパルスを加え搬送モータｃ１８を停止する。   A fixed pulse is applied to the rotary motor 12, and when the card 22 of the rotating unit 10 jumps out to the transport path b2, the rotary unit 10 is temporarily stopped at the position shown in FIG. 3 before the card 22 hits the transport path b guide 9. . Here, when the card 22 is small and the card end has not reached the sensor e21 (sensor e21 is write), the conveyance motor c18 is activated in the direction in which the card 22 is away from the conveyance path b2, and the sensor e21 From the time point of detection (switched from light to dark), the transport motor c18 is reversely rotated and a pulse for returning to the fixed position of the card 22 in the rotating unit 10 is applied, and the transport motor c18 is stopped.

逆にカード２２のズレが大きくカード端がセンサｅ２１を通過している場合（センサｅ２１がダーク）は、カード２２が搬送路ｂ２に近づく方向に搬送モータｃ１８を起動し、センサｅ２１がカード端を検知した（ダークからライトに切り替わった）時点から、回転部１０でのカード２２の定位置に戻る分のパルスを加え搬送モータｃ１８を停止する。この動作により、回転中のカード位置のズレを修正する。   Conversely, when the card 22 is largely displaced and the end of the card passes the sensor e21 (the sensor e21 is dark), the transport motor c18 is activated in a direction in which the card 22 approaches the transport path b2, and the sensor e21 From the time of detection (switched from dark to light), a pulse for returning to the fixed position of the card 22 in the rotating unit 10 is applied and the transport motor c18 is stopped. This operation corrects the misalignment of the rotating card position.

回転モータ１２を起動し、センサｂ１４が検知するまで回転部１０を回転させ、回転部１０の搬送方向を搬送路ｂ２の方向に合わせる。搬送モータｂ８、搬送モータｃ１８を起動し、搬送ローラｂ７、搬送ローラｃ１５、搬送ローラｄ１６を回転させ回転部１０のカード２２を搬送路ｂ２に搬送し、カード２２の受け渡しを行う。   The rotary motor 12 is started and the rotating unit 10 is rotated until the sensor b14 detects it, and the conveying direction of the rotating unit 10 is adjusted to the direction of the conveying path b2. The conveyance motor b8 and the conveyance motor c18 are activated, the conveyance roller b7, the conveyance roller c15, and the conveyance roller d16 are rotated to convey the card 22 of the rotating unit 10 to the conveyance path b2, and the card 22 is delivered.

次に、搬送路ｂ２から搬送路ａ１にカード２２の受け渡しを行う動作を説明する。回転モータ１２を起動し、センサｂ１４が検知するまで回転部１０を回転させ、回転部１０の搬送方向を搬送路ｂ２の方向に合わせる。搬送モータｂ８、搬送モータｃ１８を起動し、搬送ローラｂ７、搬送ローラｃ１５、搬送ローラｄ１６を回転させ搬送路ｂ２上のカード２２を回転部１０へ搬送する。センサｄ２０がカード端を検知した（ライトからダークに切り替わった）時点から、搬送モータｂ８、搬送モータｃ１８を逆転させ回転部１０でのカード２２の定位置に戻る分のパルスを加え搬送モータｂ８、搬送モータｃ１８を停止する。   Next, an operation for transferring the card 22 from the transport path b2 to the transport path a1 will be described. The rotary motor 12 is started and the rotating unit 10 is rotated until the sensor b14 detects it, and the conveying direction of the rotating unit 10 is adjusted to the direction of the conveying path b2. The conveyance motor b8 and the conveyance motor c18 are activated, and the conveyance roller b7, the conveyance roller c15, and the conveyance roller d16 are rotated to convey the card 22 on the conveyance path b2 to the rotating unit 10. From the time when the sensor d20 detects the card end (switched from light to dark), the transport motor b8 and the transport motor c18 are reversely rotated to apply a pulse for returning to the fixed position of the card 22 in the rotating unit 10, and the transport motor b8, The conveyance motor c18 is stopped.

回転モータ１２に一定パルスを加え、回転部１０のカード２２が搬送路ａ１側に飛び出した時にカード２２が搬送路ａガイド６に当る手前の図４に示した位置で回転部１０を一旦停止させる。ここでカード２２が搬送路ａ１から離れる方向に搬送モータｃ１８を起動し、センサｄ２０がカード端を検知した（ライトからダークに切り替わった）時点から、搬送モータｃ１８を逆転させ回転部１０でのカード２２の定位置に戻る分のパルスを加え搬送モータｃ１８を停止する。この動作により、回転中のカード位置のズレを修正する。   A constant pulse is applied to the rotary motor 12, and the rotary unit 10 is temporarily stopped at the position shown in FIG. 4 before the card 22 hits the conveyance path a guide 6 when the card 22 of the rotation unit 10 jumps out to the conveyance path a1 side. . Here, the card motor 22 is activated in the direction away from the card path a1, and the card at the rotating unit 10 is reversed by rotating the card motor c18 when the sensor d20 detects the end of the card (switched from light to dark). A pulse for returning to the fixed position 22 is added to stop the transport motor c18. This operation corrects the misalignment of the rotating card position.

回転モータ１２を起動し、センサａ１３が検知するまで回転部１０を回転させ、回転部１０の搬送方向を搬送路ａ１の方向に合わせる。搬送モータａ５、搬送モータｃ１８を起動し、搬送ローラａ４、搬送ローラｃ１５、搬送ローラｄ１６を回転させ回転部１０のカード２２を搬送路ａ１に搬送し、カード２２の受け渡しを行う。   The rotary motor 12 is started and the rotating unit 10 is rotated until the sensor a13 detects it, and the conveying direction of the rotating unit 10 is adjusted to the direction of the conveying path a1. The conveyance motor a5 and the conveyance motor c18 are activated, the conveyance roller a4, the conveyance roller c15, and the conveyance roller d16 are rotated to convey the card 22 of the rotating unit 10 to the conveyance path a1, and the card 22 is delivered.

以上の構成、動作とすることにより、回転部１０の搬送ガイド１７の長さは「カードの長さ＋修正後の少ない回転範囲でのズレ量」があれば良いため、カード回転機構３を小型化することができる。   With the above configuration and operation, the length of the conveyance guide 17 of the rotating unit 10 needs only to be “the length of the card + the amount of deviation in a small rotation range after correction”.
