2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, an automatic ticket gate apparatus for a ticket having a magnetic recording unit has been put into practical use, but if the ticket can be entered and exited only by the ticket gate, the ticket can be used only within a fixed section. If you overcame, you had to go through the payment procedure (by an automatic payment machine or station staff) when you entered.

Further, when boarding from a station before the regular section, a ticket from the boarding station to the regular section must be purchased at a ticket vending machine. In addition, if you are passing over in the front of the section, you will need to purchase the ticket and settle with a checkout machine.

As a result, the flow of customers inside and outside the station premises is complicated and causes congestion. That is, for example, outside the station premises, using an automatic ticket vending machine by boarding outside the section, inside the station premises,
There are various customer flows, such as the use of the automatic checkout machine consciously by the transit checkout customers, and the customers who go back to the automatic checkout machine after receiving the overtime checkout decision due to unconscious passing through the automatic ticket gate.

Further, it goes without saying that a purchase of a ticket is required when using the train only outside the section.

On the other hand, the prepayment function (prepaid function) has been conventionally adopted as a so-called stored fair card. However, in this case, a customer who uses a ticket can use both the ticket and the stored fair card. Carry around, depending on the boarding / alighting pattern of each station as described above,
You must be able to use the automatic ticket gate, ticket vending machine, and payment machine properly.

Regarding the prepaid function, it is necessary to display the prepaid amount, the remaining amount, etc. on the face of the ticket in consideration of the convenience for the user, but conventionally, there is a limitation on the size of the heat-sensitive surface for printing. , The number of prints is limited depending on the size of characters.

In this case, if the character size is too small, there is a problem that the character cannot be read.

If the character information such as the prepaid amount, the remaining amount, and the usage status displayed on the ticket surface of the ticket having such a prepaid function can be rewritten, the convenience of the user is expanded.

Further, in recent years, a wireless ticket that has been put into the automatic ticket gate and simply presented in the vicinity of the automatic ticket gate has been put into practical use.

In this case, the owner of the wireless ticket without the prepaid function searches for an automatic ticket gate device that can use the ticket, searches for a checkout machine that can use the wireless ticket, and uses the prepaid function. It is extremely inconvenient because you have to have your own ticket.

Further, the ticket issuing device that has been put into practical use in the past has only a normal ticket issuing function. Therefore, the user purchases the ticket with the ticket issuing device, and the prepaid card is exclusive. It was extremely inconvenient, such as having to purchase with a card issuing device.

[0013]

As described above, there is a problem in that the conventional ticket and ticket issuing device in the conventional ticket processing system cannot be used for various uses.

Therefore, the present invention enables the passengers to get on and off only by entering and exiting the automatic ticket gate in various types of mobile phones, and can make the flow of regular passengers unidirectional, thereby contributing to the elimination of congestion. An object of the present invention is to provide a ticket to be obtained and a ticket issuing device that can issue such a ticket.
