Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an automatic continuous ticket issuing device for automatically issuing continuous commuter passes.

A conventional continuous commuter pass automatic issuing machine is shown in Fig. 1. In the figure, 1 is an operation section consisting of a switch for setting the conditions for issuing a continuous commuter pass and a display section that displays the set contents, and 2 is a prostitution mechanism for continuous commuter passes that has a ticket ejection port 2a. , 3 is a commuter pass retrieval mechanism having a ticket retrieval slot 3at, and 4 is a money transfer mechanism having a paper retrieval port 4as, a coin retrieval port 4b, and a change output port 4cf. An automatic ticket issuing machine 5 is formed. 6 is a commuter pass.

Next, the operation of the above device will be explained. In this device, the essential requirement for issuing a continuous commuter pass is that the commuter pass 6 is for automatic ticket gates, and the commuter pass 6 has information for automatic ticket gates on the back, that is, information about the commuter pass. recorded magnetically. .

When a commuter pass user attempts to continue purchasing a commuter pass 6 whose expiry date is approaching, when the purchaser inserts the current commuter pass 6 into the ticket slot 3a, the commuter pass 6Fi is inserted into the pass 6Fi. The magnetic information on the back side can be read. Next, the purchaser sets issuance conditions such as the number of months of validity by operating the operating section 1, and the operating section 1 displays the fare. Then, the purchaser inserts the money that satisfies the freight charge into the paper input slot 4a or the coin intake slot 4b, and through a simple confirmation operation by the purchaser, the magnetic information read as described above and the set issuance conditions are entered. Accordingly, the continuous commuter pass is discharged from the ticket discharge port 2a, and the change is discharged from the change discharge port 4C. In this way, with conventional continuous commuter pass automatic issuing machines, it is essential that the commuter pass is for automatic ticket gates, and in the case of commuter passes for non-automatic ticket gates, it is impossible to automate continuous issuance. there were.

The present invention has been made in order to eliminate all of the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional technology, and by collectively managing the issuance record information and sound of commuter passes, it is possible to make it possible to manage commuter passes regardless of whether they are for automatic ticket gates or non-automatic ticket gates. It is an object of the present invention to provide an automatic continuous ticket issuing device that can automatically issue continuous commuter passes.

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

In FIG. 2, 7 is an automatic commuter pass issuing machine that automatically issues a new commuter pass, 8 is a commuter pass issuance data management unit that stores issuance data sent from the automatic issue machine 7, and 9 is a second 10 is a signal line connecting each automatic issuing machine 9 and the data management section 8. Each automatic issuing machine 9 is the same as or similar to the automatic issuing machine 5, and reads and displays the issuing data stored in the data management section 8, and also changes the issuing data except for the commuter pass number and boarding section. an operating unit 11 that can transfer money, a money transfer mechanism 12 that transfers money, a used commuter pass import mechanism 13 that accepts used commuter passes, and a fully automatic continuous pass transfer system that accepts continuous passes according to issued data. Ticket issuing mechanism department 1 that issues
4 respectively.

Next, the operation of the above device will be explained. First, a new commuter pass (either for an automatic ticket gate or a non-automatic ticket gate is fine) is automatically issued by the automatic issuing machine 7, and the commuter pass number, boarding section, validity period, etc. The issuance data is sent to the data management section 8 and stored therein. If the user of this commuter pass is about to expire and wishes to continue using it, he or she can purchase a continuous commuter pass at any automatic issuing machine 9. The flowchart in Figure 3 shows the entire issuing procedure.
By operating the key, the number of the commuter pass in use (hereinafter referred to as the old ticket) is set, the old ticket issuing data stored in the data management section 8 is read out, and the old ticket issuance data is displayed on the operation section 11 together with the fare. Next, if there is a change in the validity period, etc. of the issued data, all changes are made to the issued data on the operation unit 11, and when the send button is pressed, the changed issued data is stored in the data management unit 8, and the operation unit 11 The updated issued data will be displayed together with the fare.

These operations do not need to be performed if there is no change in the issued data. Next, input the purchase money in the money transfer mechanism 12, set the 4 old tickets to the used commuter pass (ticket import mechanism 13), and press the start button on the operation unit 11 to import the old tickets. A continuous commuter pass is automatically issued based on the issuance data stored in the data management unit 8 from the ticket issuing mechanism unit 14, and the money transfer mechanism 1
In step 2, change is dispensed.

As described above, in the present invention, issuance data of an automatic commuter pass issuing machine that automatically issues a new commuter pass is stored in the commuter pass issuance data management section, and this stored issuance data is stored in the commuter pass issuance data management section. Based on this, continuous commuter passes are issued automatically at the automatic ticket issuing machines, and the commuter passes that are in use only need to be set in the import mechanism, so they can be used for automatic ticket gates and non-automatic ticket gates. Continuous commuter passes can be issued fully automatically in any case for automatic ticket gates.

Claims (1)

[Claims] (1.1 A commuter pass issuance data management unit that stores issuance data from an automatic commuter pass issuing machine that automatically issues new commuter passes, and reads out and displays the issuance data stored in the data management unit. At the same time, there is an operation unit that can change issuing data except for the commuter pass number and travel section, a money transfer mechanism that transfers money, and a commuter pass swallowing mechanism that captures the commuter pass that is in use. A fully equipped continuous commuter pass automatic issuance machine having a ticket issuing mechanism section that automatically issues a continuation commuter pass according to the above-mentioned issuance data, reads and displays the issuance data stored in the data management section, and also reads and displays the issuance data stored in the above-mentioned data management section. On the condition that the issuance data is changed, and the purchase money is input and the commuter pass in use is set to the above-mentioned import mechanism, the issuance of the commuter pass will be automatically issued according to the issuance data. Automatic continuous ticket issuing device that automatically issues continuous commuter passes.
