When an operator inputs a predetermined item (for example, ticketing type, quantity, etc.) from the input unit 5 of the control device 2 in order to issue an electronic pass P from the electronic pass issuing machine 1, the control unit 31
Causes the link mechanism 20 to operate, and causes the electronic path P to be extended from the corresponding case of the hopper section 9. At this time, the control unit 31 controls the display unit 6 to display the ticketing type, quantity, and the like. The actuation of the link mechanism 20 activates the solenoid 26 to move the second link 24 rightward in FIG. 5, so that the first link 23 overcomes the force of the tension spring 25 and is two points from the solid line position (initial position). It turns to the chain line position.

With the rotation of the first link 23, the feed lever 21 projects from the solid line position (initial position) to the two-dot chain line position, so that the hopper 9 is located at the lowest position in the corresponding case. The path P is pushed by the tip of the feeding lever 21,
It is fed out onto the inclined guide 16.

When the feeding of the electronic path is completed, the solenoid 26 is operated to move the second link 24 to the left in FIG. 5, so that the first link 23 returns from the two-dot chain line position to the solid line position (initial position). I do. With the return of the first link 23, the feeding lever 21 retracts from the position indicated by the two-dot chain line to the position indicated by the solid line (initial position), so that the feeding of the electronic path P is stopped.

The electronic path P fed out onto the inclined guide 16
When the controller 31 falls on the inclined guide 16 and reaches above the antenna unit 10, the control unit 31 operates the stopper mechanism 32 to move the electronic path P to the inclined guide 16 above the antenna unit 10.
Lock near. As a result, predetermined information (for example, ticketing type, ticketing date, expiration date, etc.) is written in the electronic path P by the antenna unit 10 in a non-contact manner.

[0035] When the writing of information by the antenna unit 10 for the electronic path P is completed, the control unit 31, for releasing the engagement of the electronic path P to stop the operation of the stopper mechanism 32, the electronic path P is inclined guide 16 It falls down and is paid out to the stacker unit 11. At this time, the control unit 31 stores the issuance data based on the issuance of the electronic pass P in the RAM 34 and activates the printer unit 7 to output a receipt on which the issuance data based on the issuance of the electronic pass P is printed.
Thus, the operator takes out the electronic path P from the stacker unit 11, hand over an electronic path P and issuing receipts to the customer in exchange for cash.

As described above, according to this embodiment, when the operator inputs predetermined information (such as the type of ticket issuance) to be written into the electronic path P from the input unit 5, the control unit 31 operates the link mechanism 20 to operate the hopper. The electronic path P is fed out onto the inclined guide 16 from the corresponding case of the section 9, and the stopper mechanism 32 and the antenna section 10 are operated to write predetermined information to the electronic path P in a non-contact manner. In order to issue a ticket, a large number of electronic paths P can be issued continuously and quickly even if there are many electronic paths P to be issued. As a result, it is possible to solve the problem that the ticketing operation is extremely troublesome, as in the case where the data carrier is manually ticketed as in the related art.

Further, since each of the cases 9a to 9e of the hopper 9 is formed in a cylindrical shape capable of storing a predetermined number of electronic paths P and is detachably attached to the ticket issuing main body 8, the total number of electronic paths in the hopper 9 is increased. The storage quantity can be easily grasped, and the cases 9a to 9e can be easily carried and carried to other places. In addition, since electronic passes P of different ticket types can be stored for each of the cases 9a to 9e, it is suitable for issuing electronic passes P of multiple ticket types.
