DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 2 shows an appearance of a commuter ticket issuing machine for issuing the commuter ticket of the present invention. That is, the commuter ticket issuing machine 1 includes an operation panel 2 as an input means including operation buttons, a memory button, and a key mat described later, a ticket issuing device 3 as an issuing means for issuing a commuter ticket, an input procedure or an operation. The display device 4 is composed of a CRT display or the like for displaying set information.

FIG. 1 shows a schematic configuration of the control system in FIG. That is, the CPU 5, which controls the entire commuter pass issuing machine 1, has a read-only memory, that is, a ROM 6, in which predetermined numerical data or control data for operating the commuter pass issuing machine is stored.
Random access memory, that is, R, in which issuance condition data and the like input via the operation panel 2 is temporarily stored
An AM (storage means) 7, a transmission device 8 connected to an external device (not shown), the operation panel 2, the ticket issuing device 3, and the display device 4 are connected.

The RAM 7 is provided with a ticket issuing information table 7a for storing ticket issuing information corresponding to a storage button described later. FIG. 3 shows a schematic configuration of the operation panel 2. A storage button 1 used for storing ticketing information and calling it.
1. Storage mode switching button 12 as switching means used when switching to a state in which ticketing information is stored in storage button 11 (hereinafter referred to as storage mode), operation button 13 for operating issuance of commuter ticket, and departure station , A key mat 14 capable of inputting various issuing conditions such as arrival station and transit.

When the memory mode switching button 12 is pressed to enter the memory mode, the memory button 11 corresponds to the unique search information of the button in which one of the buttons a to g is pressed, and the ticket is issued at that time. The information is stored in the ticket issuing information table 7a of the RAM 7. Further, in the normal state, the memory button 11 has buttons a to g.
It is possible to read the ticket issuing information stored in the ticket issuing information table 7a of the RAM 7 corresponding to the unique search information possessed by one of the pressed buttons. In this embodiment, seven memory buttons 11 are provided, which are buttons a to g, but there is no particular limitation, and about ten memory buttons 11 are normally provided.

Next, in such a structure, the memory button 1
The operation of storing ticketing information using 1 will be described. First,
The CPU 5 temporarily stores in the RAM 7 ticket issuing information such as the departure station, the arrival station, the transit, the discount, and the valid period, which are input from the operation buttons 11 and the key mat 14 of the operation panel 2. At this time, operation button 1
When issuing the commuter pass is instructed by the operation of 1, the CPU
5 displays the ticket issuing conditions on the display device 4 and issues a commuter pass by using the ticket issuing device 3.

Further, when the frequency of use of the ticket issuing information is high, the ticket issuing information is stored in the ticket issuing information table 7a of the RAM 7 in order to simplify the repeated operation of the operation button 11 and the key mat 14.

That is, a staff member selects a storage mode switching button 1
When 2 is pressed, the memory mode is set, and when the memory button 11, for example, the button a is pressed, the CPU 5 stores the ticket issuing information in the RAM corresponding to the unique search information of the button a.
7 in the ticketing information table 7a.

FIG. 4 shows an example of the construction of the ticket issuing information table 7a. The button identification "a", "issuing station, arriving station", "passing", which is unique retrieval information possessed by the button a of the memory button 11. Data such as “condition”, “date (including expiration date)”, “amount”, etc. are stored.

The storage mode switching button 12 is pressed once again.
The memory mode is released by being pressed by the staff. For example, the departure station is Tokyo station, the arrival station is Yokohama station, commuting discount,
March 22, YY start date, validity period 1 month, amount 1
If a commuter pass of 8,000 yen is issued and many commuter passes are issued, it is stored as follows.

First, the clerk presses the storage mode switching button 12 to enter the storage mode. Subsequently, a button for storing this ticketing information, for example, the button c, is selected and pressed from the storage buttons 11. When the button c of the memory button 11 is pressed in the memory mode, the CPU 5 stores the above-mentioned "Tokyo station, destination station is Yokohama station, commuting discount, start date on March 22, YY, effective period" stored in the RAM 7. RAM for ticketing information for 1 month, 18,000 yen
The button identification “c” of the button c is stored in the ticket issuing information table 7a of No. 7 as search information.

Next, the operation of reading the ticket issuing information and issuing the commuter ticket will be described. First, when the clerk presses the memory button 11 to be read, for example, the button a, the CPU 5 uses the button identification “a” of the button a as search information to read the ticket issuing information from the ticket issuing information table 7a and displays it on the display device 4.

If the contents displayed on the display device 4 are changed, for example, if there is a discount, expiration date, etc., the clerk inputs by using the operation button 11 and the key mat 14 as changing means. C
The PU 5 issues a commuter pass by using the ticket issuing device 3 when the input is changed by the operation button 11 and the key mat 14 and the issuing of the commuter pass is instructed. In this way, the commuter pass can be issued simply by changing a part of the ticket issuing information, so that the operation amount can be reduced.

For example, in the case of issuing a commuter pass with the departure station being Tokyo station, the arrival station being Yokohama station, a commuting discount, and a validity period of one month, the clerk first presses the button c of the memory button 11. CPU5
When the button c of the memory button 11 is pressed, the ticket issuing information stored in the ticket issuing information table 7a of the RAM 7 is read out using the button identification "c" of the button c as search information and displayed on the display device 4.

[0026] The clerk is informed of the ticket information displayed, "The departure station is Tokyo station, the arrival station is Yokohama station, commuting discount, the start date on March 22, YY, validity period 1 month, amount 18,000 yen". Check and change any changes. When the clerk changes the start date, the start button change “May 11, YY” is input using the operation button 11 to instruct the issuance of the commuter pass.
The CPU 5 uses the ticket issuing device 3 to issue ticket information of "departure station is Tokyo station, arrival station is Yokohama station, commuting discount, start date May 11, YY, validity period 1 month, amount 18,000 yen" Issue a commuter pass based on. Therefore, in this case, the commuter ticket can be issued only by pressing the button c of the memory button 11 and changing the start date.

As described above, according to the above embodiment,
By reading the input of the ticket issuing information for issuing the commuter pass from the storage button, it is possible to reduce the number of times the input operation button is operated. Further, since the ticket issuing information read out from the memory button can be freely re-read out, even if the ticket issuing information is not completely the same, it is possible to input it by only reading out and changing a part.

[0028]

As described above in detail, according to the present invention,
It is possible to provide a commuter ticket issuing machine that can reduce the amount of input operation in issuing the commuter ticket and reduce the burden on the staff.
