After the driving direction of No. 3 is once reversed, the recording means 34 is made to erase the data and the writing is performed again.

Next, the operation will be described.

When the recording medium handling device 10 is used, for example, in a ball lending machine 1 provided in parallel with a pachinko machine, when the player finishes the game and operates the clearing switch, the first to third
The rollers 31a, 32a of the roller portions 31, 32, 33,
33a and the reversing roller 35 are rotated by the driving means M2. The thin plate-shaped recording medium stored in the storage portion 20 is pulled out by the roller 31 a of the first roller portion 31.

The thin plate recording medium R is conveyed, and the roller 32
When it is sandwiched by a and 32b, the read head 34a of the recording means 34 senses it, and the roller 31a is driven by the driving means M1.
Is displaced to a position where it does not contact the thin plate recording medium R. This prevents the thin recording medium from being newly conveyed from the storage section 20. With the displacement of the roller 31a, the movable guide means 22 is also rotated about the support shaft G by the drive means M1. The rotated direction is a direction in which the stored thin plate-shaped recording medium is pushed so that the thin plate-shaped recording medium housed in the housing portion does not contact the drawn thin plate-shaped recording medium R. As a result, the thin plate recording medium R is smoothly transported.

The thin plate recording medium R is further provided with a third roller portion 33.
It is conveyed to the recording medium entrance / exit port O by being sandwiched between the pair of rollers 33a and 33b.

The thin plate recording medium R has rollers 33a and 33b.
The recording medium detection sensors S1 and S that are sandwiched by
When 1 is detected, the writing / erasing head 34b writes the data on the thin plate recording medium R in response to a command from the control means 40. The read head 34a reads the written data, and the control means 40 confirms the content. When there is an error in the content of the data or when it is difficult to read the data, the control means 40 drives the driving means so as to rotate the rollers 31a, 32a, 33a of the first to third roller portions in the opposite directions. Operate M2. As a result, the thin plate recording medium R is returned in the reverse direction. During this time, the recorded data is erased by the writing / erasing head 34b.

When the end of the thin plate-shaped recording medium R facing the recording medium inlet / outlet O side is returned to the position sandwiched by the rollers 32a and 32b, the read head 34a of the recording means 34 detects it and outputs a signal. Call the control means 40. Upon receiving the signal, the control means 40 operates the drive means M2 so that the rollers 31a, 32a, 33a of the first to third roller units rotate in the direction in which the thin plate recording medium R is conveyed to the recording medium inlet / outlet port O.

At the same time, the control means 40 causes the write / erase head 34b to write the data to the thin plate recording medium R again. As described above, the read head 34a reads the rewritten data, and the control means 40 confirms the content. As a result, if there is no error in the data and the readability is good, the thin plate-shaped recording medium R has the roller portion 3
It is conveyed as it is to the position deviating from 3. When the thin plate recording medium R reaches that position, the control means 40 stops the operation of the drive means M2 in order to stop the rotation of the rollers 31a, 32a, 33a and the reversing roller 35. At that position, a part of the thin plate recording medium R is out of the recording medium entrance O, so that the player can easily receive the thin plate recording medium R.

When a plurality of thin plate recording media are pulled out when the roller 31a of the first roller unit 31 pulls out the thin plate recording medium stored in the storing unit 20, the rollers of the second roller unit 32 are pulled out. 32b is displaced by the thickness of the thin plate recording medium. The roller 32 on the side opposite to the roller 32a
Since a reversing roller 35 is arranged at a high speed in the same direction as the rotation direction of the roller 32a at the time of normal conveyance, the reversing roller 35 is provided at a distance of about one and a half thin plate recording medium from b.
When the roller 32a comes into contact with the roller 5, the roller 32a is forced to reverse its rotation direction. As a result, all the thin plate recording media that have been pulled out at the same time are once returned to the storage unit 20.

The roller 31a moves the thin plate-shaped recording medium 1
After the sheet is drawn out, it is as described above.

The case where the thin plate-shaped recording medium stored in the storage section 20 is pulled out, data is written, and then issued is described above.

Next, the handling of the thin plate recording medium in which the data has already been recorded, which is taken in from the recording medium inlet / outlet O, will be described. In such a case, for example, when a game is being played on a pachinko machine, the game on that pachinko machine is ended and the game is played on another pachinko machine.

When the recording medium detection sensors S1, S1 detect the thin plate recording medium R inserted from the recording medium entrance O, the recording medium detection sensors S1, S1 control the control means 40.
The control means 40 which has transmitted the signal to and has received the signal operates the drive means M2 to operate the rollers 31 of the first to third roller units.
The a, 32a, and 33a are rotated in a direction in which the thin plate recording medium R is taken into the storage portion 20 side. At this time, the roller 31a of the first roller portion is displaced by the driving means M1 to a position where it does not come into contact with the thin plate recording medium. The guide means 22 is displaced by the driving means M1 so as to move the thin plate recording medium already stored in the storage portion 20 to a position where it does not come into contact with the transported thin plate recording medium R.

The thin plate-shaped recording medium R is conveyed, and the leading end portion (the end portion on the side previously inserted into the recording medium inlet / outlet port O) is the second.
When sandwiched between the rollers 32a and 32b of the roller portion, the read head 34a reads the data recorded on the thin plate recording medium R and stores it in the memory of the control means 40. Next, the data recorded on the thin plate recording medium R is erased by the writing / erasing head 34b.

The thin plate-shaped recording medium R is further conveyed, and the rear end (the end opposite to the front end) is read by the read head 34.
A signal is transmitted from the read head 34a to the control means 40 when it is separated from a, and the drive means M2 returns the roller 31a to the position where it comes into contact with the thin plate recording medium R in accordance with the command of the control means 40. At the same time, the guide means 22 is also returned to the position for holding the thin plate recording medium R. The thin plate-shaped recording medium R is stored in the storage portion 20 while the side opposite to the contact side of the roller 31a is pressed by the elastic force of the pressing means 21.

When the recording medium storage sensor S2 detects that the thin plate recording medium R is stored in the storage portion 20, it sends a signal to the control means 40. Upon receiving the signal, the control means 40 stops the operation of the driving means M2 and stops the rotation of the rollers 31a, 32a, 33a of the first to third roller parts.

When the game ends, the control means 40 writes the updated data to the thin plate recording medium and checks the written data as described above, and the thin plate recording medium is returned to the player.

In the present embodiment, the guide means for preventing the thin plate recording medium stored in the internal storage portion of the apparatus from coming into contact with the newly conveyed thin plate recording medium, and the thin plate recording medium stored in the storage portion. Further, the roller for storing the inserted thin plate recording medium in the storage portion can be displaced to a position where it does not come into contact with the thin plate recording medium, so that the space of the entire device can be efficiently used. In addition, the recording medium can be smoothly transported.

In the above embodiment, the read head 34a reads the data recorded on the thin plate recording medium R inserted from the recording medium inlet / outlet O and stores it in the memory of the control means 40, and then the thin plate recording medium R is recorded on the thin plate recording medium R. Although the recorded / erased head 34b erases the recorded data, the thin plate-shaped recording medium has data that is not updated in the recorded data, such as a member card, for example, a member number and a name. In this case, the non-updated data portion may not be erased.

Further, the thin plate recording medium R is the read head 3
A separate sensor may be provided to detect the separation from 4a.

If the thin plate recording medium is a magnetic card, a magnetic head may be added.
