Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention is installed in a financial institution,
The present invention relates to a card and statement discharging method in an automatic transaction device that performs transactions such as deposit and withdrawal using a customer's card.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art The outline of an automatic transaction device will be described below.
FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram. In the figure, 1 indicates insertion / insertion of a card.
Discharge port, 2 is a card recognition unit, 3 is a card emboss reading unit, 4 is a card loading unit, 5 is a switching blade, 6 is a bill storage unit, 7 is a bill storage unit for replenishment, 8
Is a statement slip capturing unit, 9 is a printing unit, 10 is a cutting unit, 1
Reference numeral 1 is a control unit.

According to the above configuration, the customer inserts
When the card is inserted into the outlet 1 and the data required for the transaction is input by the operation unit (not shown), the card recognition unit 2 reads the magnetic stripe of the card, and then the emboss reading unit 3 reads the embossed character of the card. When the transaction is completed, the statement sheet passes through the transport path, the transaction data is printed by the printing unit 9, and then cut by the cutting unit 10 to be discharged from the insertion / discharge port 1. If the customer forgets to take out the detailed slips discharged from the insertion / discharge port 1, the switching blade 5 changes direction in the direction of the arrow by attraction of the plunger magnet (not shown), and The transport means is rotated in the opposite direction and the statement slip is stored in the statement slip storage unit 6. The card is also taken into the card taking section 4 by rotating the carrying roller in the reverse direction.

The insert / eject port 1 for ejecting the detailed slips and the card cut by the cutting section 10 will be described in more detail with reference to FIG. The drawing is an enlarged view of the main part. In the drawing, 12 is a card, 13 is a statement slip,
14 is a sensor for detecting the insertion and removal of the card, 1
5 is a card ejection position stop sensor, 16 is a statement slip removal detection sensor, 17 is a statement slip ejection position stop sensor, 18 is a card feed roller, 19 is a statement slip feed roller, and records the card 12 and transaction details. When the detailed slip 13 is discharged from the insertion / discharge port 1, the card discharge position stop sensor 15 first sets the card 12 to O.
The sheet is conveyed by the feed roller 18 until it becomes FF. Therefore, the statement slip 13 is immediately sent to the statement slip discharge position stop sensor 1
The sheet is conveyed by the feed roller 18 until 7 is turned off, and the customer pulls out the overlapping card 12 and statement slip 13 from the insertion / discharge port 1 to finish.

[0005]

According to the conventional technique described above, the statement slip 13 comes out as if the card 12 is chasing after the card 12 comes out. Therefore, the emboss 1 of the card 12
The tip of the statement slip 13 is caught by the protrusion of 2a and the statement slip 13 is bent as shown in FIG. 4, and when the customer pulls out the card 12 and the statement slip 13, the statement slip 13 is handed over in the folded state. And insert the statement slip 13
There is a problem that it may not come out from the discharge port 1 and it is difficult to pull it out, and in the worst case, there is a problem that the statement slip 13 is clogged in the discharge path.

[0006]

According to the present invention, when a card used for a transaction and a statement sheet recording the transaction content are ejected from an insertion / ejection port after the transaction in an automatic transaction device is completed,
A feature is that the card is temporarily stopped near the inside of the insertion / ejection slot, the statement slip is ejected to the insertion / ejection slot, and immediately after that, the suspended card is ejected and overlapped with the statement slip. And

[0007]

With the above configuration, the statement slips are first ejected to the insertion / ejection port, and then the cards are immediately ejected so that the cards overlap each other with the cards down, so that the statement slips are ejected. The tip of the card does not hit the protrusion of the emboss of the card and is not bent, so that the state in which it is reliably overlapped with the card at the insertion / ejection port can be obtained.

[0008]

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a flow chart showing an embodiment in an operating state,
FIG. 2 is an enlarged view of an essential part in a state where the statement slip is ejected to the insertion / ejecting port, and FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of an essential part in a state where the card and the statement slip are ejected, and the configuration of the apparatus is the same as above. Therefore, detailed description will be omitted, and the following description will be given using the same reference numerals. In the figure, 12 is a card, 13 is a statement slip,
14 is a sensor for detecting the insertion and removal of the card, 1
5 is a card ejection position stop sensor, 16 is a statement slip removal detection sensor, 17 is a statement slip ejection position stop sensor,
Reference numeral 18 is a card feed roller, and 19 is a statement slip feed roller. It is determined whether or not the front end of the S1 card 12 is detected by the card ejection position stop sensor 15, and if detected, a signal for stopping the feed roller 18 is transmitted. S2 The feed roller 18 is temporarily stopped by stopping a card carrying motor (not shown). S3 It is determined whether or not the statement slip 13 on which the transaction content is printed has passed the discharge position stop sensor 17, and when it has passed, the discharge position stop sensor 17 is turned on. S4 It is determined whether or not the rear end of the conveyed detailed slip 13 has passed the discharge position stop sensor 17, and if it has passed, the discharge position stop sensor 17 is turned off and a signal for stopping the feed roller 19 is transmitted. . S5: The feed motor for the statement slip (not shown) is stopped to stop the feed roller 19 (FIG. 2). S6 Subsequently, the card carrying motor is rotated. S7 card 12 is conveyed and detection sensor 15 is off
If you decide that you have advanced, feed roller 18
Send a stop signal. The S8 card 12 is located below the statement slip 13, and stops the card carrying motor to stop the feed roller 18 (FIG. 3). S9 The customer detects that the card 12 and the statement slip 13 are the detection sensors 14 and 16
It becomes FF. S10 It is determined whether or not the detection sensor 14 and the detailed slip sampling detection sensor 16 are turned off after waiting for a certain period of time. It will not turn off if the customer forgets to take it. S11 When the customer has not taken out the card 12 and the statement slip 13 and a certain time has elapsed, S12 The feed rollers 18 and 19 are rotated in the reverse direction to take the card 12 and the statement slip 13 into their respective loading sections in the apparatus. In the above description, the card comes out immediately after the statement slip is discharged, but it is not always possible that the customer will only remove the statement slip and forget the card, so there is a display screen and voice guidance not shown. It is good to instruct by saying, "Because the statement and the card will be ejected, please take them together."

[0009]

According to the present invention described in detail above, when the card used for the transaction and the statement sheet recording the transaction content are ejected from the insertion / ejection port after the transaction in the automatic transaction device is completed, the insertion / ejection port is used. By suspending the card near the inside of the card, ejecting the statement slip to the insertion / ejecting port, and immediately after that, ejecting the suspended card and overlapping it with the statement slip, The tip of the statement slip hits the unevenness, the statement slip is bent and discharged, and the bent statement slip is not passed on to the customer. Further, by bending the statement slip, it is possible to eliminate an accident such as the statement slip being difficult to extract or the statement slip being clogged in the traveling path.
