[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to an electronic cash register detachably mounted on a separate drawer.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 In recent years, electronic cash registers have been used to perform various financial operations with high efficiency. Such an electronic cash register is used to input various business information such as a keyboard and a bar code scanner, and to register various sales business according to the business information input by this information input device. An information processing means to be executed, a display device for appropriately displaying various business information related to sales business executed by the information processing means, a drawer for storing cash to be taken in and out according to the business information to be executed, and an information processing means It has a structure such as a printer device that sequentially prints a plurality of business information of the sales business executed on the continuous paper.

Now, an electronic cash register or the like having a drawer as a separate body and improved in the degree of freedom of layout has been put into practical use. Therefore, a conventional example of such an electronic cash register will be described with reference to FIGS. First, in this electronic cash register 1, as shown in FIG. 3 (a), a keyboard 3 is integrally formed on the front side of the upper surface of the main body housing 2, and a display for cashier and customer is provided on the rear side of the upper surface. 5 is erected, and various connection cords 6 to 9 are attached to the lower edge of the rear surface of the main body housing 2.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 4, the drawer 10 formed separately from the electronic cash register 1 has a main body case in which a drawer (not shown) slidable in the front-rear direction is stored in the front portion. A through hole 12 is formed in the rear portion of the through hole 11 so as to communicate with each other in the vertical direction, and a connection cord 13 that is freely drawn in the vertical direction from the through hole 12 is provided.

As shown in FIG. 3B, the electronic cash register 1 is detachably mounted on the drawer 10 as desired. In this case, one connection cord is used. 6 is connected to the connection cord 13 of the drawer 10.

In such a configuration, the electronic cash register 1 can be used alone as shown in FIG. 3A, and is combined with the drawer 10 as shown in FIG. 3B. It can be used even in the state. In any usage state, the connection cords 6 to 9 of the electronic cash register 1 are connected to a drawer 10, a commercial power source, a host computer (both not shown) and the like.

[0007]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The electronic cash register 1 described above can be used alone or in combination with the drawer 10 according to the user's request.

Here, when the electronic cash register 1 is used in combination with the drawer 10, as shown in FIG. 3B, the connection cords 6 to 9 protruding from the lower rear surface of the main body housing 2 are It is arranged on the rear surface of the main body case 11 of the drawer 10.

However, the rear surface of such an electronic cash register 1 is arranged to face the customer, and when the connection cords 6 to 9 are exposed as described above, the external appearance is hindered and the connection cords 6 to 9 are attached. There is a concern that operation errors may occur due to contact with customers.

[0010]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 A drawer with a vertical through hole formed in the rear is provided at the rear of the main body case that houses the drawer so that it can slide in the front-rear direction. In an electronic cash register equipped with a connection cord for connecting to a commercial power supply or a drawer on the outer surface, the connection cord is opened at the boundary between the rear surface and the lower surface of the body housing, the rear and the lower part communicating with the through hole of the drawer are open. A wiring cover was attached to the wiring cover, and a cord cover was attached to the wiring portion so as to be detachably attached from the rear side to shield the connection cord.

[0011]

[Action]

 At the boundary between the rear surface and the lower surface of the main body housing, a rear part and a lower part communicating with the through hole of the drawer are opened to form a wiring part to which a connection cord is attached, and this wiring part is detachably mounted from the rear side. By installing a cord cover that shields the connection cord, it is possible to pull out the connection cord guided downward from the wiring part from the through hole of the drawer when installing this electronic cash register on the drawer. It is possible to prevent the connection cord from being exposed on the rear surface by attaching the cord cover to the wiring part in this state.

[0012]

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. First, in the electronic cash register 14, as illustrated in FIG. 2, the keyboard 3 and the displays 4 and 5 are inclined at a 45 degree angle at the boundary between the rear surface and the lower surface of the main body housing 15 provided at the front and back of the upper portion. A wiring portion 16 having an opening at the bottom is formed, and the connection cords 6 to 9 are attached to the wiring portion 16. Here, the main body housing 15 located on both sides of the wiring portion 16 is formed with engagement grooves 17 which are open to the rear and the lower side, and engages with the engagement grooves 17 in a disengageable manner. Engaging claws 18 project from both ends of a flat plate-shaped code cover 19. Therefore, in the electronic cash register 14, the cord cover 19 is detachably attached from the rear and the lower side at a position facing the wiring portion 16, and in these states, the cord cover 19 and the cord cover 19 are detachably attached. The outer surface of the main body housing 15 is integrally continuous.

In such a configuration, the electronic cash register 14 can be used either alone or in combination with the drawer 10 as desired by the user, as illustrated in FIG. When the electronic cash register 14 is used in combination with the drawer 10, the connection cords 6 to 9 projecting from the wiring section 16 are guided downward as shown in FIG. The cord cover 19 is attached to the wiring portion 16 from the rear side by being pulled out from the through hole 12. By doing so, in this electronic cash register 14, the connection cords 6 to 9 are not exposed on the rear surface facing the customer, so that the appearance is kept good, and further, the connection cords 6 to 9 are protected by the customer. Since there is no contact, operation errors are prevented.

In the electronic cash register 14, the connection cords 6 and 13 are connected in the through hole 12 of the drawer 10. When the electronic cash register 14 is used alone, as shown in FIG. 1 (a), the connection cords 6 to 9 projecting from the wiring portion 16 are guided rearward to the conventional electronic cash register 1. It is used in the same manner, but in this case, the cord cover 19 can be prevented from being lost by mounting it below the wiring portion 16.

[0015]

[Effect of the device]

 As described above, according to the present invention, a drawer having through holes for communicating in the up-down direction is provided at the rear of the main body case in which the drawer is slidably stored in the front-rear direction, and the drawer is attached and detached on the main body case of the drawer. In an electronic cash register in which a connection cord for connecting to a commercial power source or a drawer is attached to the outer surface of the main body housing that can be freely installed, a lower part that communicates with the through hole of the drawer at the boundary between the rear surface and the lower surface of the main body housing. This electronic cash register is equipped with a cord cover that opens to the side and has a connection cord attached to it, and that has a cord cover that is detachably attached from the rear side to shield the connection cord. It can be used alone by guiding the connection cord backward from the wiring part with the cord cover removed, or when installed on a drawer. The connection cord guided downward from the wiring part can be used by pulling it out from the through hole of the drawer, and by attaching the cord cover to the wiring part in this state, the connection cord can be attached to the rear surface facing the customer. Since it is not exposed, the external appearance is maintained in good condition, and since the customer does not touch the connection cord, operation errors can be prevented.
