A pair of visors. By virtue of the visor (L) 2 and the visor (R) 3, a person in the vicinity of the operator of the financial terminal apparatus blocks the view of the space above the table-shaped or sloped surface and the space in front of it. .

  Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the visor (L) 2 and the visor (R) 3 have a structure in which front end portions 21 and 31 on the near side are bent outward. Furthermore, the shape of the visor (L) 2 and the visor (R) 3 is plate-like, but as shown in FIG. 4 (1), one side of the rectangle (front end side in front) is curved. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 4 (2), the upper and lower corners of the tip side are provided with a sufficient R (roundness).

  FIG. 3 is a top view of the financial terminal device according to the present embodiment, in which the tip portion 21 of the visor (L) 2 and the tip portion 31 of the visor (R) 3 are in the a direction and the b direction from a straight state indicated by dotted lines, respectively. Shown in a folded state. That is, it shows a state of being bent outward so as to secure the operator's area. As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the folding axis is a vertical axis (an axis from about 60 degrees to 90 degrees with respect to the horizontal), and the position in the depth (front-rear) direction is about the maximum of the financial terminal device 1. The position is adjusted to the front surface 9.

  In order to make it bendable, the rectangular portion of the visor (L) 2 and the tip 21 are connected by upper and lower hinges 22-U, 22-L as shown in FIG. Alternatively, slight unevenness as shown in FIG. 4 (2) is provided, and the upper and lower hinges 22A-U and 22A-L are connected. If there is a gap, it should be covered with a highly elastic tape.

  Although not shown, the rectangular portion of the visor (R) 3 and the tip 31 are connected by upper and lower hinges 32-U and 32-L. Alternatively, the upper and lower hinges 32A-U and 32A-L are connected.

  Next, the operation of the first embodiment of the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. As shown by a solid line in FIG. 3, the visor (L) 2 and the visor (R) 3 of the financial terminal device are normally bent slightly outward. As shown in FIG. 7, the operator 10 stands in front of the financial terminal device 1 and starts the operation by the input means 5 (touch panel) added to the display means 4. That is, with respect to a menu screen displaying a plurality of handling items, the input means 5 (touch panel) is used to instruct withdrawal or transfer by card.

  The financial terminal device 1 receives an operation input and requests reading of the card. When the operator inserts the card into the card insertion slot 6, the financial terminal device 1 reads the card and requests input of a personal identification number or password through the screen. The operator 10 inputs a personal identification number etc. through the input means 5 (touch panel. Thereafter, an input screen for processing the selected item is displayed, and the transaction is processed by inputting the amount, the bank account number of the transfer destination, etc. finish.

  As shown in FIG. 7, from the start of the operation to the end of the transaction, the visor (L) 2 and the visor (R) 3 block the lines of sight e and f from the side persons 11 and 12, and the screen and operation input (hand movement Peeping) is prevented. Further, the tip portions of the visor (L) 2 and the visor (R) 3 are bent, and an operation area for the ATM operator 10 is secured.

  In the time zone when the financial terminal device 1 is not used and the time zone when the financial terminal device 1 is unattended, as shown in FIG. 5, the tip of the visor (L) 2 and visor (R) 3 are further bent and folded. For example, there is no hindrance for passers-by who pass through the in-store passage in front of the financial terminal device 1. There is plenty of space for work by the store clerk.

  FIG. 8 shows an external view of a certificate issuing terminal device 1A according to the second embodiment of the present invention. In the certificate issuing terminal device of the present invention, the height range portion including the display means 4 and the input means 5 (touch panel) added to the display means 4 is sandwiched from the left and right side surfaces of the housing, and from the left and right side surfaces. A visor (L) 2 and a visor (R) 3 projecting toward the left are attached to the left and right side surfaces.

  The visor (L) 2 and the visor (R) 3 have a structure in which the tip portions 21 and 31 can be bent outward as described above, and can be folded by half rotation.

  The certificate issuing terminal device 1A includes a money insertion slot 8A, a card insertion slot 6, and a certificate extraction slot 10.

  The certificate issuing terminal device is required not to look into the resident number as personal information or the password for issuing the certificate.

  Next, the operation of the second embodiment of the present invention will be described. The certificate issuing terminal device 1A selects the desired document name by the input means 5 on the menu screen on which the handling certificate class name (seal certificate, resident's card, family register abstract, etc.) is displayed.

  Next, since the certificate issuing terminal device 1 </ b> A requests reading of the card through the screen of the display unit 4, the operator inserts the ID card into the card insertion slot 6. Next, the certificate issuing terminal device requests a personal identification number or a password or a resident number and displays a software keyboard.

  When authenticated, a screen for issuing the selected certificate is displayed, and the number of copies is entered. The bill and money of the expected amount of money charged through the screen are read into the money slot 8A and loaded. Finally, a desired certificate is extracted from the certificate extraction port 10 and the operation is terminated.

  From the start of the operation to the end of the transaction, the visor (L) 2 and the visor (R) 3 block the line of sight from a person lying on the side and prevent the screen and operation input (including hand movement) from being looked into. Further, the tip portions of the visor (L) 2 and the visor (R) 3 are bent, and an operation area for the operator of the certificate issuing terminal device 1A is secured.

  In the time zone when the certificate issuing terminal device 1A is not used or the time zone when the periphery of the certificate issuing terminal device is unattended, the tips of the visor (L) 2 and visor (R) 3 are further folded and folded, for example, The space around the issuing terminal device can be prevented from being affected.

  The present invention includes a display device and input means, and can be used for a terminal device used by many users. In particular, an ATM (automatic teller machine) or a CD machine installed on a book shelf near a window of a convenience store or the like. The present invention can be applied to (automatic payment machines) and financial terminal devices such as automatic machines placed in ATM corners of financial institutions, certificate issuing terminals placed in convenience store stores or in corners of public offices and public buildings.
