On the other hand, many insert-type readers cannot read ID cards with a large number of characters.
Even if reading is possible, there is a problem in that the operability is poor. In addition, if you want to continue validly retaining the details of exceptional work entered on your ID card, you must display the contents of the ID card, that is, the details of exceptional work, using another display means, etc. As a result, the structure became more complicated and the handling became more complicated. Furthermore, even if you wanted to keep the details of your exceptional work, if you mistakenly inserted another ID card, the details of your exceptional work would be changed and an incorrect record would be output.

On the other hand, the hand scan type reader has a simple and compact overall structure, so it is economical in terms of cost reduction and space saving.
ID cards with a large number of characters can be read and have excellent operability, but in order for the details of exceptional work to continue effectively, the details must be displayed in a different location, and As with the above-mentioned insertion method, if the ID card is incorrectly inserted, the contents will be changed.

In addition, the details of exceptional work will be printed and displayed on the ID card so that the person can understand the content by looking at this display, eliminating the display in the above-mentioned separate location, and also helping to prevent incorrect insertion. was considered, but the ID
Since the card is removed from the reader once input is completed, visibility is poor, making it unsuitable for continuously understanding the contents, and there are other problems that do not provide fundamental measures to prevent incorrect insertion. It was hot.

Therefore, the technical problem of the present invention is to accurately display the details of the exceptional work being entered on the ID card itself without providing a display section in a separate location, and to
The purpose is to prevent incorrect insertion of ID cards.

[Means for solving problems]

The measures taken in the present invention to solve the above technical problems are as follows.

(1) The type of exceptional work must be indicated on the ID card.

(2) A pocket should be provided at the entrance of the ID card running groove provided in the hand-scan type reader, in which the ID card can be stored in a position that displays the indication of exceptional work and is perpendicular to the running groove. .

However, the types of exceptional work displayed on the ID card here refer to items other than normal work such as "overtime,""leavingearly,""arrivinglate,""earlydeparture," and "business trips."

[Effect]

Each of the above means operates as follows.

The means (1) above makes it possible to confirm the details of the exceptional work that has been recorded by looking at the display on the ID card.

With the method (2) above, by inserting the ID card after input into the card pocket, you can check the details of the exceptional work you are currently inputting by looking at the display on the ID card. This prevents incorrect card insertion by preventing the ID card from being inserted.

As described above, the above-mentioned technical problem can be solved by the above-mentioned means, and the problems of the conventional technology can be solved.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of the above-mentioned exceptional work input device for a time recorder according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In Fig. 1, 1 is a time recorder for recording work data, and there is an insertion port 1a opened on the top surface.
When a time card (not shown) is inserted, work data is printed in a predetermined printing field. Further, 2 is a hand scan type reader connected to the time recorder 1 using a cable 10,
There is a running groove 3 on the front for inserting the ID card T.
is installed vertically. In Figures 2 and 3, 4
is a transmissive card sensor installed in the middle of the traveling groove 3, which detects the ID card T while traveling. 5 is a reading device (reader) also installed in the middle of the running groove 3
Then, the vehicle runs from the entrance 3a toward the exit 3b.
The ID card T is structured such that the details of the exceptional work recorded while the vehicle is running are read by the reading device 5 and input into the time recorder 1 side.

Tb is a display showing the contents of the above-mentioned ID card T. Therefore, the ID card T shown in the figure is a card for "overtime", and when this ID card T is scanned, the exception work code for "overtime" is displayed in time recorder 1. is input.

Next, reference numeral 6 denotes a pocket for the ID card T provided on the upper front side of the hand scan type reader 2, specifically near the entrance 3a of the running groove 3. As shown in the figure, it can be inserted so that the display Tb can be seen from the front, and it can also be inserted perpendicularly to the running groove 3, so that the ID card T can be inserted into the pocket 6. When inserted, this ID card T is in the running groove 3.
The system is designed to prevent users from inserting another ID card. In addition, 7 in the figure is a transparent sensor that detects the lower end of the ID card T inserted into the pocket 6. As long as this sensor 7 detects the ID card T, that is, the ID card T is inserted into the pocket 6.
As long as the ID card T is inserted, the exception work for the ID card T will continue to be valid, and changes to the exception work will be prevented. Furthermore, in FIG. 2, 8 is a lamp that indicates whether the scanned ID card T and the ID card T inserted into the pocket 6 are valid or invalid.

As described above, for example, a person who has worked exceptional work for "overtime" inserts the ID card T for "overtime" into the running groove 3 of the reader 2, scans it, and then scans the ID card T. When the T is inserted into the pocket 6 and the time card is inserted into the time recorder 1, the details of the exceptional work, that is, the overtime work data are printed on the time card.

Furthermore, since the contents of the ID card T inserted into the pocket 6 remain valid as long as the ID card T is inserted into the pocket 6, a person who has performed exceptional work (overtime) with the same contents is If you continue to insert the time card into time recorder 1 and print it, a new
You can print the same type of exceptional work on the time card without scanning the ID card T, and the type of exceptional work that is validly continuing can be printed on the time card if it is inserted into Pocket 6. It can be clearly recognized by the display Tb of the ID card T.
