Abstract

PURPOSE:To generate necessary totalization data at fixed time with a small error by providing a setting part for setting the date and time of reporting together with an inspection and a reckoning report to be outputted in advance. CONSTITUTION:A data totalization part 22 totalizes data on prices, etc., in order and a unit price setting part 18 sets the date and time of reporting together with the inspection and reckoning reports to be outputted in advance. A comparison part 21 compares the contents of the set date and time with a timer LSI 13 in a main body. Consequently, when the date and time of the LSI 13 reach the date and time set by the setting part 18, the data of the totalization part 22 are outputted from a report output part 17 automatically without operator's intervention. Thus, a receipt or journal is issued to obtain the necessary totalization data at the fixed time and the contents of the totalization data are set by the setting part 18, so the error is small.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to an electronic fare scale capable of issuing receipts, journals, etc.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In conventional electronic fare scales of this type, an operator separately performs operations for data aggregation.

Problems that the invention aims to solve In stores that use electronic fare scales, the content of the report for data aggregation is almost fixed, and the time is also almost fixed, such as at a certain time while the store is open, or after closing. ing. In such a situation, it is difficult for an operator to obtain a certain amount of data by operating the report because there may be a time lag or there may be errors in the content of the tally.

Means to solve the problem The price of the product is calculated by setting the unit price of the product and measuring the weight of the product. Data such as unit price, weight, price, etc. is displayed on the display, and data such as receipts, journals, etc. In an electronic price scale equipped with a printer that issues prices, there is an aggregation unit that sequentially aggregates data such as prices, a setting unit that sets the inspection/accounting report that you want to output in advance, as well as the date and time that you want to output the report. a comparison section that compares the contents of the date and time set in the setting section with the clock LSI built into the main body; and a report output section that outputs the data of the aggregation section when the date and time in the comparison section match. Configure.

When the date and time of the built-in clock LSI match the date and time set in the setting section, the data in the totaling section is automatically output from the report output section, without any operation by the operator. Or, by publishing in the form of a journal, necessary aggregated data can be obtained on time, and since the contents of the aggregated data are also set by the setting section, there is no error.

Example An embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

First, the electronic price scale 1 is provided with a tray 3 on which the product to be weighed is placed on the body case 2, and a front keyboard 4 with various keys arranged on the front of the body case 2. It is being Further, a printer 5 is provided on one side of the main body case 2. Next, a column 6 is erected from the back of the main body case 2, and a display section 7 is attached to the upper end of this column 6.

Next, a CPU 9 to which a memory 8 is connected is provided inside the main body case 2, and a weight detecting section 11 using a load cell is connected to the CPU 9 via an analog-to-digital converter 10.

Further, an I10 block 12 is connected to the CPU 9, and to this I10 block 12 are connected the printer 5 including a thermal printer, a clock LsI 13, a date switch 14, and a display block 15. A front keyboard 4, a remote keyboard 16, and the display section 7 are connected.

Next, a report output mechanism including a report output section 17 that sends print data to the printer 5 to issue a report in the form of a receipt or a journal is constructed as shown in FIG. First, a setting section 18 is provided, and this setting section 18 includes a date setting section 19 and an output report setting section 20.
It becomes more.

As shown in FIG. 2, the contents of the setting section 18 are divided into "year, month, day, day of the week, hour, minute" in the date setting section 19
The date and time are set for each. Here, r-
The portion labeled 3 is treated as unspecified data. Further, the contents of the output report setting section 20 are divided into "report number, memory type, code type, first code, and last code." Here, report No.

There are WRAPJ, etc. For the code type, rPLU

etc.

The setting section 18 formed in this way is similar to the clock LS11.
3 and is connected to the comparison section 21.

This comparing section 21 compares the date and time of the clock LS113 and the date and time of the setting section 18, and generates an output when they match.

The comparison section 21 is connected to a data aggregation section 22.

A calculation section 23 is connected to this data aggregation section 22, and the weight detection section 11 and unit price setting section 24 are connected to this calculation section 23.

Further, the data aggregation unit 22 is configured to include the report output unit 17.
It is connected to the.

The operation of such a configuration will be explained based on FIG. First, check the mode and then check the front switch to see if any keys are being operated while the registered mode switch is not off. If a key has been operated, a check is made to see if it is a key on the front keyboard 4 or a key on the remote keyboard 16, and the status is displayed.

In addition, if the key is not operated, the scale data is read, scale data processing, auto zero processing is performed, and the clock LS11
Read data from 3. Next, the time in the setting section 18 and the clock LS113 are sequentially compared to check whether they match. If they do not match, it is normal operation, and if net calculation is necessary, it is processed, if price calculation is necessary, it is processed and displayed, and it is printed on a label and a receipt or journal is issued. .

When the times match in the above operation, the setting section 18
The output report set in is output and the data aggregation unit 22
The aggregated data is outputted from the report output unit 17, and the predetermined aggregated data is output as a receipt or a journal.

Effects of the Invention As described above, the present invention calculates the price of the product by setting the unit price of the product and measuring the weight of the product, displays data such as the unit price, weight, price, etc. on the display, and displays the receipt. In electronic price scales equipped with printers that issue journals, etc., there is an aggregation unit that sequentially aggregates data such as prices, and a setting unit that sets the inspection and settlement report that you want to output in advance, as well as the date and time that you want to output the report. and a comparison section that compares the date and time set in this setting section with the clock LSI built into the main unit, and
Since the configuration includes a report output section that outputs data from the aggregation section when the times match, the date and time of the built-in clock LSI in the main body can match the date and time set in the setting section without any operation by the operator. Then, the data in the tabulation section is automatically output from the report output section, which allows you to issue the required tabulation data in the form of a receipt or journal on time, and also to set the contents of the tabulation data. Since this is set by the department, it has the effect of being error-free.
