EXAMPLES Examples of the present invention will be described below. FIG. 1 is a system diagram of a ticket issuing device 11 according to an embodiment of the present invention.
2 (1) and 2 (2) are side views of the ticket issuing device 11 as seen from the arrow Q direction and the arrow P direction in FIG. 1, respectively. The ticket issuing device 11 includes two roll papers 12 and 13. The leading ends of the roll papers 12 and 13 are unwound, and the band-shaped papers 14 and 15 from the roll papers 12 and 13 are sent out by the feed rollers 17 and 18. In the present embodiment, each strip 14 and 15 and each feed roller 17 and 18
As shown in FIG. 2, the positional relationships with and are mutually opposite. Therefore, in the ticket issuing device 11, in each of the side views of FIGS. 2A and 2B when viewed from the same side of the strip-shaped papers 14 and 15 as seen from the Q direction and the P-direction, the strip-shaped paper 14 and the feed roller 17 are shown. 2 are opposite to the left and right positions of the belt-shaped paper 15 and the feed roller 18 in FIG. 2, and the belt-shaped papers 14 and 15 are respectively fed to the feed rollers 17 and
The 18 are rotated in the opposite directions to be delivered in the same delivery direction.

One-way clutches 21 and 22 are connected to the shafts 19 and 20 of the feed rollers 17 and 18, respectively, and the one-way clutches 21 and 22 rotate in the same direction of a motor 23 that can rotate in both directions. The rotary shafts 24 and 25, which are both ends of the shaft, are connected to each other. A cutter 26 for cutting the strip-shaped papers 14 and 15 into a predetermined length is disposed downstream of the feed rollers 17 and 18 in the delivery direction.

The operation of the ticket issuing apparatus 11 of this embodiment will be described below. When the roll paper 12 is used, the motor 23 is rotationally driven in the arrow B1 direction. At this time, the one-way clutch 21 transmits the rotation of the rotation shaft 24 of the motor 23 in the arrow B1 direction to the shaft 19 and rotates the feed roller 17 in the arrow B1 direction. On the other hand, the rotation of the motor 23 causes the rotation shaft 25 to rotate in the arrow B1 direction. At this time, the one-way clutch 22 idles, and the rotation of the motor 23 is not transmitted to the shaft 20.

This mechanism will be described in more detail. The one-way clutch 22 transmits the rotation to the rotary shaft 25 when the shaft 20 rotates in the direction of the arrow B1 when the rotation of the rotary shaft 24 is transferred to the shaft 19.
That is, the rotation axis 25 is relatively indicated by the arrow B2 with respect to the axis 20.
When rotating in the direction, the rotation is transmitted to the shaft 20.
Therefore, as described above, when the motor 23 rotates in the arrow B1 direction, the rotating shaft 25 rotates in the arrow B1 direction relative to the shaft 20, and the one-way clutch 22 idles.

Thus, only the feed roller 17 is rotated by the rotation of the motor 23 in the arrow B1 direction, and the belt-shaped paper 17
Can be sent out.

On the other hand, when the roll paper 13 is used, the motor 23 is rotationally driven in the arrow B2 direction. At this time, the one-way clutch 22 transmits the rotation of the rotation shaft 25 of the motor 23 in the arrow B2 direction to the shaft 20 and rotates the feed roller 18 in the arrow B2 direction. On the other hand, due to the rotation of the motor 23, the rotation shaft 24 also rotates in the arrow B2 direction.
At this time, the one-way clutch 21 idles, and the rotation of the motor 23 is not transmitted to the shaft 19.

This mechanism will be described in more detail. As described above, the one-way clutch 21 has the rotating shaft 24.
When is rotated in the direction of arrow B1, the rotation is transmitted to the shaft 19. That is, when the rotary shaft 24 rotates in the arrow B1 direction relative to the shaft 10, the rotation is transmitted to the shaft 19. Therefore, as described above, the motor 23 moves the arrow B
When rotating in two directions, the rotary shaft 24 rotates in the direction of arrow B2 relative to the shaft 19, and the one-way clutch 21 idles.

As described above, the rotation of the motor 23 in the direction of the arrow B2 causes only the feed roller 18 to rotate, and the belt-shaped paper 18
Can be sent out.

As described above, in this embodiment, the pair of roll papers 12 and 13 can be used independently. Moreover, only one motor needs to be used, the number of parts can be reduced as compared with the prior art, and wiring required for using the motor can be simplified, thereby realizing a simple structure. be able to.

The ticket issuing device of the present embodiment is a ticket vending machine for providing tickets such as tickets for various transportation means, boarding tickets, etc., or when an empty can based on the deposit system is put into an empty can collecting machine. It can be implemented for a wide range of devices that require a ticketing function such as the mechanism provided. In the present invention, the pair of roll bodies are not limited to the roll paper of the above-described embodiment, and other materials may be used.

[0021]

By using the ticket issuing apparatus of the present invention,
The following effects can be achieved.

By rotating the motor in either of the two directions, the rotation is selectively performed by the corresponding one of the first one-way rotating clutch and the second one-way rotating clutch to selectively rotate the first roller and the second roller. It is transmitted to the corresponding one of the second rollers. Accordingly, the first roller and the second roller are respectively rotated in the first direction or the second direction, and either one of the pair of roll bodies can be selectively used. In this way, each of the pair of roll bodies can be independently used with a simple configuration using one motor.
