And means.

[0006]

According to the present invention, the discount rate corresponding to the weight is stored for each type of merchandise instead of the plurality of unit prices. This discount rate is often the same for a plurality of types of products, and can be easily set based on the gross profit of the products, so that the registration work (memory work) becomes easy. Then, the calculation means calculates the discount amount of the product based on the weight of the product and the discount rate stored in the memory, and the display means displays the discount amount of the product. Therefore, the discount amount can be easily calculated and displayed for each weight of the product.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows the structure of a weighing device for sale according to an embodiment of the present invention. This device includes a computing means (CPU) 1
0, a memory (RAM) 4, a weighing machine 6, an input means (numeric keypad) 8, a display means (CRT) 12, and a printer 14. The RAM 4 stores the discount rate corresponding to the weight of each product. The CPU 10 controls the entire device and calculates the discount amount of the product based on the weight of the product and the discount rate stored in the RAM 4. RAM4 and CPU
10 is built in the microcomputer 20. In many cases, the discount rate is the same for a plurality of types of products, and since it can be easily set based on the gross profit of the products, the registration work becomes easier as compared with the conventional device for registering the unit price. FIG. 2 shows an example of the discount rate stored in the RAM 4. It is assumed that the unit price of the product number “1005” and the product name “Gyunik” is 500 yen / 100 g.

FIG. 3 shows a flow chart showing the operation of the measuring device for sale. The operation of this apparatus will be described below using this flowchart. First, the product number and product name are input by the ten-key pad 8 (step S
1). In the example of FIG. 2, the product number “1005” and the product name “Gyunik” are input. CPU10
The discount rate for each weight of the product stored in the RAM 4 is called based on the input "1005" and "GUUNIK". Next, the product is placed on the plate of the weighing device 6 and the weight of the product is measured (step S2).

Next, the CPU 10 determines that the weight of the product is 500.
It is confirmed whether it is less than g (step S3). If the weight is less than 500 g, the CPU (calculation unit) 10 is shown in FIG.
As in 01, no discount calculation is performed (step S4), fixed price unit price × weight is calculated, the amount without discount is displayed on the CRT 12 (step S5), and is printed out on a label or receipt by the printer 14 (step S6). .

If the weight of the product is 500 g or more in step S3, the CPU 10 checks whether the weight is less than 700 g (step S7). CPU less than 700g
(Calculation means) 10 is 10% as shown in FIG.
The discount amount is calculated by the discount rate (step S8). For example, if the weight of the product is 600 g, the discount amount is the unit price × the discount rate × weight = 5 × 0.1 × 600 =
It can be easily calculated at 300 (yen). Also, the amount after discounting is (fixed unit price x weight) -discount amount = 3000-300
= 2700 (yen)

Then, this amount is displayed on the CRT 12 (step S5), and the discount amount "3" is displayed by the printer 14.
"00 yen" and the discounted amount "2700 yen" are printed out on a label or receipt (step S6). An example of the label is shown in FIG.

At step S7, if the weight of the product is 700 g or more, the CPU (calculation means) 10 is shown in FIG.
The discount amount is calculated at a discount rate of 15% like 03 (step S9), and similarly, the discount amount and the amount after discount are displayed (step S5), and the discount amount and the amount after discount are displayed on the label or receipt. It is printed out (step S6).

As described above, in the present invention, since the discount amount is calculated by the discount rate corresponding to the weight of each product, the registration work is easier than the conventional device for registering the unit price. In addition, the discount amount is the unit price × discount rate ×
Depending on the weight, the amount after discount is also ((list price unit price x weight)-
It can be calculated easily by the discount amount.

FIG. 5 shows an example of the RAM 16 stored in the vending machine for sale according to another embodiment. in this case,
The RAM 16 displays “the amount of discount = (weight−3
00g) × list price unit price × 15% ”, only the calculation formula is stored for each product, and the CPU 10 calculates the discount amount based on this calculation formula. For example, if the unit price is 500 yen / 100 g, the discount amount is 525 yen when the weight is 1 kg, and the discount amount is 150 yen when the weight is 500 g. This eliminates the need to register the discount rate corresponding to the weight, and further simplifies the registration work.

In this embodiment, the discount rate corresponding to the weight is provided, but the discount rate may be provided for each purchase price or each purchase quantity.

Although the discount amount is calculated based on the weight in this embodiment, the discount amount may be calculated based on the number by automatically determining the number based on the weight.

[0017]
