Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a recording device suitable for use in, for example, ticket vending machines.

A ticket vending machine (hereinafter referred to as a ticket vending machine) is equipped with a recording device having a non-volatile memory.
Release data and maintenance data are sequentially recorded in this recording device. Furthermore, what is maintenance data?

For example, it is data regarding the number of times an abnormality has occurred, the location where an abnormality has occurred, variables used in each part, etc. Then, it is recorded on the recording device.
Each data output is read out each time a data output command is supplied, and output to an output device such as a printer. Well, the recording device is cleared at time t when data output to the output device is finished, and after 1, sequentially generated data is written again n.

By the way, in the above-mentioned recording device, when data is read out irregularly, it becomes unclear from when to when the data is being read, and data management becomes difficult. be. Even when data in the t7t% record I11@ is read out periodically, if the data is read out at a time other than when it should be read out due to an erroneous operation, problems similar to those described above and in the next case will occur.

Therefore, the present invention provides a recording device that can output the date data related to the opening period of the 9th period of f'L recorded data together with the recorded rtfI-data. date or current time) Ci
The corresponding date data is stored in the date storage section, and when the next data is output, the data in the date storage section and the date data at that time are outputted together with the current data.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of a red vending machine to which the brass device according to the present invention is applied. According to this diagram, 1 is 4M

) and via pass line 2! ! l @ Connected to each part. Reference numeral 3 denotes an input slot into which money (banknotes or coins) is inserted. ′
The Lt coins are sent to the fishing inspection device 4. The inspection device #4 has the function of determining the authenticity and relative of the fL drawn coins inserted from the input slot 3, and outputting the currency data corresponding to the type of coin to the pass line 2, and the change data supplied from the CPU 1. The zero ticket dispenser 6, which is a device having the function of discharging change to the discharge port 5 based on the ticket data supplied from the CPU 1, prints the boarding section t or the amount on the ticket based on the ticket data supplied from the CPU 1.
The printed ticket is discharged to the discharge port 5. Printer 7 is a CP
This is to print out various aggregated data supplied from U1. The operation s8 consists of a button for nine lines, a button to dissipate, etc. provided on the customer service surface, and an rtx print command button provided on the staff operation section.The output of each operation button is encoded and interfaced as button data. The date setter 10, which is output to the pass line 2 via the circuit 9, is the ninth device for setting the date of the day, and consists of a digital switch, and its output (date data) is sent to the interface circuit 9. The signal is output to pass line 2 via the signal line. Programmer 11 is used in cpty 1.
This is a memory in which programs are stored. 1-The data memo 912 is a non-volatile memory in which various data supplied from the CPU 1 are stored. As shown in Figure 2, the data memo 912 is configured in areas E1 to E1. .

and.

Area E1 stores the sales data such as the number of tickets sold and the sales price. Areas E and K store the aforementioned maintenance data. The date data to be output is stored.

Next, the operation of the apparatus based on the above #h configuration will be explained.

First, before the device starts moving, the staff member uses the date setter 10 to set the date of the day. and,
The interfaith circuit 9 outputs a CPU 1 head command. When the CPU 1 presses this print command button, the data marked with H' is displayed in area E3 of the data memory 12.
data in area E of data memory 12.

Output the data in E2 to the printer 7. This YL
Accordingly, each data is printed out by the following printer. Next, the CPU 1 clears the data memory 12 when the printing of all data is incorrect← when it is finished, and then 1 records the date data output from the date setter 10 in area E of 13. Write.

The above is the processing before operation. Note that the purpose of this processing is not to print out, but to clear the data memory lz and write to area 'E3.

Next, the passenger inserts money from the input slot 3, and when the inserted money f' is sent to the inspection scissors 114, the inspection device 4 determines the authenticity and type of this currency, and transfers the currency data to the pass line. Output to CPU 1 via .

The CPU 1 temporarily stores this money data internally.Next, when the passenger presses the destination button in operation s8, the button data corresponding to the pressed destination button is set to the interface times.
It is supplied to the CPUI via the CPU.

Based on this button data and the above-mentioned t-money data, the CPU 1 detects whether the amount of inserted money is greater than the amount of the t-ticket specified by the destination button, and if it is large, the Calculate the amount of money. Then, the change data corresponding to the calculated 5 p sen is output to the change checking device 4, and the 11 upper button distribution data is output to the ticket issuing device 6. As a result, the coins and the printed ticket are discharged to the exit slot.Then, the CPLT1 issues a friend ticket and writes the price and number of tickets to the area E1 of the data memory 12. The above-described operations are repeated each time a ticket is purchased. In this case, the price and number of tickets are stored in the area E1 of the data memory 12, respectively.

Cumulative totals are added for each destination. When the maintenance data is generated, the next maintenance data is written to the area E2 by the CPU 1. The date setting device 10 is set by a staff member each time the date changes.

Next, when performing data aggregation, the staff member presses a print command button on the operation section 8. When the print command button is pressed, a print command is output from the inter-7 circuit 9 to the CPU 1. The CPU receives this print command, and as in the case described above, prints the date data output from the date setter 10, the data in area E3, and the area E1. E
, are sequentially output to the printer 7 and printed out.

When all the data has been printed without errors, the data memory 12t is cleared and the date data is stored in area E of the date setter 100.

write to.

In this way, in the device shown in Fig. 1, when the print command button is pressed during data aggregation, the date of that day is first printed out, and then the date of the previous aggregation is printed out.
The data in AE) is printed out, and then #
From the j times 0 tally to the current tally W! The release data and maintenance data recorded in the trench during the 0th period are printed out.

As a result, the staff member can print out the data and clearly know when the data was recorded between the time and date.

In the above example, use the date setter 1.
Although the date of the day is set by 0, a clock circuit that outputs the real time may be used instead.

The e* example described above is a case where the recording device according to the present invention is applied to a ticket vending machine, but the present invention also applies to other devices, 91
Vending machine for ege juice etc., various data recording 11@
Of course, it can be applied to

As explained above, according to the present invention, each time data output (in the above embodiment, output to the printer 7) by the sickle device is completed, the output data corresponding to the date of the day or the current time is displayed. The date data is stored in the date storage section (area E, in the vl operation above), and when the next data is output,
Along with the recorded data, it is configured to output the data in the date & 11 section and the date data of that day (C or that time), so the output data is recorded. The advantage is that the period is clearly known to the operator.
