DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a transaction processing device that can be operated by a customer while in a motor vehicle.

Background of the Invention In financial institutions, etc., cash dispensers and automated teller machines (hereinafter referred to as ATMs) are installed in the aisles of cars, and transaction areas are set up in which car drivers can operate these devices directly from inside the car. It may happen. Since the installation location of such a transaction processing device is fixed, a customer who wishes to use the transaction processing device must park his/her car at a location where he or she can operate the transaction processing device. If the transaction processing device cannot be operated or if the vehicle is parked in a position that is difficult to operate, it is necessary to pull the vehicle closer to the vehicle in a narrow space, which takes time to complete the transaction, and there are many users. In some cases, there was a problem in that other customers were also inconvenienced.

Purpose of the Invention The present invention solves the conventional problems with such transaction processing devices, and eliminates the need for customers to bring their cars close to the transaction processing device during transactions. It is an object of the present invention to provide a transaction processing device that can automatically set the transaction processing time at regular intervals.

Structure of the Invention The present invention includes a movable cart on which a transaction processing device main body is mounted, a drive means for driving the movable cart back and forth, and a driving means provided on the front of the transaction processing device to connect a vehicle in front to the vehicle. A detection means that operates according to the distance, and a mobile cart is moved in the direction of the vehicle prior to the transaction based on the vehicle detection output of the detection means, and when the transaction processing device body reaches a predetermined distance at which the transaction can be made with the customer in the vehicle. and a control means for stopping the movable cart.

According to the present invention having such features, it is sufficient for the customer to park the car right next to the mobile trolley on which the transaction processing device is mounted. Then, the transaction processing device will automatically approach the position where it can be operated and stop, so you can just start the transaction. Therefore, there is no need for the customer to bring the car close to the transaction processing device, there is no need for the customer to renovate the vehicle himself, and there is an advantage that the risk of coming into contact with the transaction processing device 11 can be eliminated. It will be done.

The movable cart 3 has a motor 4, a deceleration mechanism 5, and tires 6 driven by the motor 4 and a deceleration mechanism 5 at the rear thereof, and can be moved back and forth by a control device to be described later. As shown in the figure, the mobile trolley 3 on which the ATM main body 1 is mounted is embedded in a recess in the wall 7 of the automobile passageway, so that the mobile trolley 3 can move straight back and forth within the recess. Two guide rollers 8 are attached to the left and right side walls of the recess so as to be in contact with the movable cart 3.A detection sensor box 9 is installed in the front of the ATM main body 1, and a car is mounted inside it. An ultrasonic switch IO for detecting the presence of the ATM main body 1 in front, and ultrasonic switches 11 and 12 on both sides thereof for detecting whether the ATM main body 1 is in a position where a car customer can use the machine are provided.

Two ultrasonic switches 11 and 12 are provided in order to widen the detection width, and are electrically connected in parallel.

Here, the object detection distance of the ultrasonic switch 10 is 1.5 m.
and the object detection distance of ultrasonic switch lL12 is 0.3.
m. Further, on the side of the movable carriage 3, there are provided proximity inches 13 and 14 which are operated by the movement of the movable carriage 3. The proximity switches 13 and 14 are each mounted at a position where a detection target 15 fixed to the side wall of the recess can be detected. Here, the moving distance of the moving trolley 3 is 0.5 m, and the proximity switch 13. The interval between '14 is also adjusted to this.

Bumpers 16 for shock absorption are provided on the front and rear of the mobile cart 3.
．． 17 is attached.

Next, the electrical configuration of this embodiment will be explained using the block diagram of FIG. In this figure, ultrasonic switches 10 to 12,
All signals obtained from the proximity switches 13 and 14 are applied to the drive control circuit 20. The drive control circuit 20 may be constituted by a central processing unit (hereinafter referred to as CP), and storage means connected thereto, including a read-only memory (hereinafter referred to as ROM) and a random access memory (hereinafter referred to as RAM). Alternatively, it may be configured by a wired logic circuit. A motor drive circuit 2I is connected to the drive control circuit 2o as an output means, and the movable cart 3 is driven by the motor 4 via the motor drive circuit 21. Drive control ``M path 2o is also connected to a voice guidance device 22 that provides guidance to customers in the car, and a drive circuit 23 for a car gate 24 that prohibits the arrival of the next customer while a customer is using this ATM. .

Next, the operation of this transaction processing device will be explained using a usage state diagram and flowchart 1. Figure 3 (al~(C
1 shows each state of operation of the transaction processing device, and FIG. 4 shows flowchart 1-. The numbers indicated using leader lines in the flowchart are drive control circuit 2.
This shows the operation step of 0. In these figures, it is assumed that the customer's car 25 has stopped at the stop frame line 26 drawn in front of the ATM body 1 as shown in Figure 3 (aj). The ultrasonic switch 10 detects the automobile 25 (step 32).
.

Then, it is determined whether the automobile 25 should stop depending on whether the ultrasonic switch 10 continues to output a signal for a predetermined period of time (step 32). If it is confirmed that the car 25 has stopped, please refer to Figure 3 f.
As shown in step 33, the car gate drive circuit 23 is driven to close the car gate 24, and the next customer's car 26 is placed on standby.

Then, the process proceeds to step 34, where the mobile cart 3 on which the ATM main body 1 is mounted is moved forward. Ultrasonic switch 10 while moving forward
(step 35), the proximity switch 14 checks whether the mobile trolley 3 has moved forward to the maximum distance (step 36), and the ultrasonic switch 11. It is checked whether the vehicle has reached a distance within which the customer can operate (step 37). If the automobile 25 is stopped and has not reached a position where it can be operated within the movement range of the mobile trolley 3, the process returns to step 34 and the mobile trolley (3
Continue to move forward. Then, as shown in FIG. 3 fbl, when the distance within which the customer can operate is reached, the process proceeds to step 38, where the movable trolley 3 is stopped, and in step 39, it continues to stop until the automobile 25 leaves. During this time, the customer can operate the ATM from inside the car and perform various transactions. When the transaction is completed and the car 25 leaves, the process proceeds to step 40.41, where the mobile trolley 3 is moved backward based on the signal from the proximity switch 13 until it reaches the standby position. When the mobile cart 3 reaches the waiting position, the mobile cart 3 is stopped, the car gate 24 is opened, and the next customer is waited for (step 42.4).
3). On the other hand, in step 35, if the car 25 leaves while the movable dolly 3 is moving forward, the process proceeds to step 44, where the movable dolly 3 is immediately stopped, and then the process jumps to step 40, where the movable dolly 3 is moved backward. If the movable trolley 3 has reached its maximum distance by the time the customer reaches the operable distance, the process proceeds to step 45, where the movable trolley 3 is immediately stopped, and the movable trolley 3 is stopped at step 7B 46.47. 3 to its standby position. Then, after stopping the mobile cart 3 (step 48), the voice guidance device 22 tells the customer that the stopping position of the car 25 is too far from the ATM, so after leaving the car, the customer should stop again according to the stop frame line 23. guide (step 49). This voice guidance is repeated until the car 25 leaves (step 4).
8 to 50), when the car 25 leaves, the process proceeds to step 43 and the car gate 24 is opened.

In this way, since the transaction processing device automatically approaches the customer, there is no need to pay attention to the parking position, and the transaction can be carried out quickly.
