When the reading of the image is detected, the automatic ticket gate 200 outputs information as a result of decoding the image by the image processing unit 254 to the ticket processing unit 256.

  The ticket processing unit 256 determines whether the validity information of the ticket 100A or 100B has been read based on the information decoded by the image processing unit 254 (step S302). When the validity information is read, the ticket processing unit 256 determines whether the validity of the ticket 100A or 100B is valid based on the validity information (step S304). If the effect is valid, the ticket processing unit 256 permits the user to enter and exit (step S306). On the other hand, if the effect is not valid, the ticket processing unit 256 prohibits the user from entering and exiting (step S308).

  If the information output by the image processing unit 254 is not validity information, the ticket processing unit 256 is information (back surface information) indicating that the information output by the image processing unit 254 is the back surface of the ticket. It is determined whether or not (step S310). If it is information indicating that it is the back surface of the ticket, the ticket processing unit 256 notifies that it is the back surface of the ticket 100A or 100B (step S312). On the other hand, if it is not information indicating that it is the back side of the ticket, the ticket processing unit 256 performs error processing (step S314). For example, the error process is a process of notifying the display unit 230 or the speaker unit 240 that information cannot be read. Further, the error process may be a process of closing the door so as to prohibit the passage of the user.

  As described above, according to the automatic ticket gate 200 of the embodiment, when the back surface 110B of the ticket 100A or 100B is trapped by the optical reading unit 220 and reads the one-dimensional code 52, it is the back surface of the ticket.

  The operation / display unit 12 is a touch panel display device in which a contact detection mechanism is superimposed on a display device such as an LCD or an organic EL (Electroluminescence) display device. A purchaser of a ticket can purchase a ticket having desired efficacy information by operating the operation / display unit 12. Instead of the touch panel type operation / display unit, an operation / display unit including a mechanical switch may be provided. The money receiving unit 14 is provided to collect a fee for a ticket from a user. The money receiving unit 14 counts banknotes and coins inserted by the user and returns them to the user as change when the price of the boarding ticket is exceeded.

  The control unit 16 includes a processor such as a CPU, and controls each unit of the ticket issuing machine 1. The accommodating portion 18 accommodates a roll-shaped ticket issuing sheet 50. The accommodation unit 18 sends out a ticket issuing sheet 50 having a length corresponding to one of the tickets 100A or 100B under the control of the control unit 16. The cutting unit 30 includes a cutter 32 (see FIG. 3) that cuts the ticket issuing sheet 50. The cutting unit 30 uses the cutter 32 to cut the ticket issuing sheet 50 sent out by the storage unit 18 under the control of the control unit 16. As a result, the ticket issuing sheet 50 is cut into dimensions set according to the type of the ticket purchased by the user.

  The cut ticket-issuing paper 50 is transported by the transport unit 20 as a paper substrate 110 (one on which the two-dimensional code is not yet printed) for one boarding ticket 100A or 100B. The transport unit 20 transports the paper substrate 110 using the back surface 110B on which the one-dimensional code 52 is printed as the back surface with respect to the print surface by the two-dimensional code printing unit 35. The two-dimensional code printing unit 35 prints the two-dimensional code 112 on the paper substrate 110 conveyed by the conveying unit 20. The boarding ticket created in this way is carried out of the housing of the apparatus by the boarding ticket carrying-out unit 40 and delivered to the user.

FIG. 17 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a flow of processing executed by the ticket issuing machine 1 according to the embodiment.
First, the ticket issuing machine 1 waits until the contents of the ticket purchased by the user are confirmed (step S400). When the contents of the boarding ticket are confirmed, it is determined whether or not to issue a large ticket based on the contents of the confirmed boarding ticket (step S402). When issuing a large ticket, the storage unit 18 transports the ticket issuing sheet 50 by the longitudinal distance of the large ticket, and causes the cutting unit 30 to cut the transported ticket issuing sheet 50 (step S404). When issuing a small ticket, the storage unit 18 conveys the ticket issuing sheet 50 by the short distance of the small ticket, and causes the cutting unit 30 to cut the conveyed ticket issuing sheet 50 (step S406). In both step S404 and step S406, the cutting unit 30 performs cutting in the short direction (direction orthogonal to the code 52a) of the ticket issuing sheet 50. The cut paper substrate 110 is sent to the transport unit 20 and transport is started (step S408).

  Next, the control part 16 produces | generates the two-dimensional code 112 which encoded the efficacy information corresponding to the content of the confirmed boarding ticket (step S410). Then, the two-dimensional code printing unit 35 prints the two-dimensional code 112 generated in step S410 on the paper base 110 (step S412), and a boarding ticket is created. The created boarding ticket is unloaded by the boarding ticket unloading unit 40 (step S414).

  According to the ticket issuing machine 1 of the embodiment described above, the second printing which is the surface opposite to the boarding ticket 100A or 100B by cutting the ticket issuing sheet 50 on which the striped code 52a is printed in the longitudinal direction. The cutting part 30 which forms a surface (110B), and the two-dimensional code printing part 35 which prints the two-dimensional code 112 on the surface 110A of the boarding ticket 100A or 100B are provided. According to the ticket issuing machine 1 of the embodiment, since the ticket issuing sheet 50 having the one-dimensional code 52 printed on the back surface 110B in advance is used, it is not necessary to print the one-dimensional code 52 every time the ticket 100A or 100B is issued. . Therefore, according to the ticket issuing machine 1 of the embodiment, it is possible to issue the ticket 100A or 100B on which the one-dimensional code 52 is printed on the back surface 110B without adding a new configuration and a new operation.
