Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a currency transaction device such as a cash deposit device, for example, in which a magnetic recording section provided in a passbook is
This invention relates to a form handling method for reading six reports and including one.

In recent years, for example, with the automation of bank teller operations, magnetic cards have been issued for each bank account and are used as transaction media in currency transaction devices such as automatic deposit disbursement machines or JIB deposit machines. However, since the account user uses both the magnetic card and the conventional savings passbook, the account user must always carry both the magnetic card and the savings passbook.

In addition, when using a currency transaction device dedicated to magnetic cards, there were inconveniences such as not being able to know the latest balance because the balance in the bankbook was not updated.Therefore, recently, the promotion of automation of banking operations and In order to eliminate the inconvenience for users of Rozao U, a magnetic card and a bank passbook are integrated, in other words, a magnetic recording section (for example, Magnetic IX Live) is pasted on the back cover of the bank passbook. , T-magnetic recording of account number, deposit balance, printed information, etc. So-called magnetic passbooks are being put into practical use.

In line with this, in the above-mentioned passbook handling device, for example, a passbook handling device is installed, which is a conventional passbook printing device incorporating a magnetic information reading/writing device, to remove and print magnetic information on the passbook. By carrying out printing as well as depositing information, transactions can now be carried out using just a bankbook without using a magnetic card, and furthermore, transaction records can be automatically printed on all bankbooks.

Specifically, the processing function of the passbook handling device described above is as follows. Next, the transaction record based on the read information is printed on the printing surface of the passbook, and after the printing is finished, the magnetic information stored in the magnetic recording part of the passbook is updated. 1 for new 1N news. It is something to be replaced. Therefore, the passbook inserted into the device is not only transported to the printing position, but also accurately transported from the insertion part to the magnetic information reading/writing position, and when printing is completed, from the printing position to the reading/writing position. must be transported accurately. In addition, in order to incorporate one reader into the conventional passbook printing device, we will prevent the overall size of the passbook handling device from increasing as much as possible.
It is necessary to fully satisfy the functions within the range of conventional passbook printing devices.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to precisely convey the received form having a magnetic recording section to a predetermined position where magnetic information is read and/or folded, and to accurately stop the document. It is an object of the present invention to provide a form handling method that enables accurate reading and/or imprinting of information on a magnetic recording part of a form.

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

A□ 1 (at * (bt) indicates the magnetic passbook according to the present invention, and this passbook l has mJ between the front cover 2 and back cover 3.
A plurality of pages 4 are bound into a booklet, and these pages 4
A plurality of lines of printing fields 5 (mJ) are printed on each printing surface.

For example, in a predetermined part of the back cover 30,
A strip-shaped magnetic recording section (for example, a magnetic stripe) 7 is pasted in parallel to the binding section 6 of. In this magnetic recording section 7,
For example, account numbers, bank balances, printed information, etc. are written magnetically. The passbook handling device that handles this passbook 1f reads and records magnetic information in the magnetic recording section 7, and also prints information 8 such as transaction records in the printing field 5.

Figure 2 shows the entirety of a currency transaction device (for example, an automatic deposit/withdrawal device) according to the present invention, in which an abbreviated operating section I2 is formed on the front surface of a casing 11; The horizontal part of the operation unit 12 is provided with a keyboard 13, a deposit slot 14, an operation guide display part 15, etc., and the vertical part is provided with a bankbook insertion slot 16, a withdrawal slot 17, a bank note return slot 18, etc. are provided for each.

In the case 11, a deposit machine, a u1 money machine, their control devices, etc. are respectively housed. A 1-mining spring handling device such as a passbook handling device 1j 20 as shown in FIG. 3 is housed, and is configured as follows. That is, one bankbook I is inserted from the bankbook insertion slot 16 with the printed page Ii4 covering the entire printing surface, and the inserted bankbook I is taken in and conveyed by a conveyance path 22 driven by a pulse motor 21. The motor 21 is driven and controlled by a conveyance control section 23, the details of which will be explained later. On the starting end side of the conveyance path 22,
Reading magnetic information 1. A loading device 24 is provided, and the read output of this reading/writing device 24 is supplied to the conveyance control section 23. The reading/writing device 24 reads and writes magnetic information to the magnetic recording section 7 of the passbook 1 set at a predetermined position.
, and a head drive section 26 that slides a magnetic head (not shown) fi: on the surface of the magnetic recording section 7 and moves it in a direction perpendicular to the conveying direction of the through 4'M'l. . Further, a printing section 27 is provided on the terminal end side of the conveyance path 22. This printing unit 27 prints predetermined information (transaction records) on the printing surface of the bankbook I set at a predetermined position. A detector 28 is provided at a predetermined location on the reading device 24 side between the reading/writing device 24 and the printing section 27 of the conveyance path 22, and this detector 2H
◎The detector 28 optically detects, for example, the rear end of the bankbook l being conveyed, and the light source 29 and the light receiving element 3
0.

Next, the method of the present invention using the above configuration will be explained in detail. For example, when a bankbook l is inserted into the insertion slot 16 by a user who is about to conduct a transaction, the conveyance control unit 23 operates the motor 21 in response to a signal from a detector (not shown) that detects the tip of the bankbook l. ◎By driving the conveyance path 22, the inserted passbook l is conveyed in the receiving direction, that is, in the predetermined direction a of the wallet l.
When the rear end of the passbook 1 passes through the detector 28, the passbook 1 passes through the detector 28 as shown in Figure 4(a), is conveyed by a predetermined portion, is stopped, and is then moved in the ejection direction, ie, the detector 28. The spear 20Dr is conveyed again in a fixed direction opposite to the predetermined direction of the spear 1, and passes through the detector 28 again. That is, when the rear end detection signal is output from the detector 28, the transport control section 23
After rotating the motor 2I forward for a predetermined number of pulses, that is, in the take-in direction, the motor 21f is temporarily stopped, and then the conveyance control unit 23 rotates the motor 21f in the reverse direction, that is, in the ejection direction, thereby moving the passbook 1 in the reverse direction. It is intended to be transported to When the rear end (the leading edge when taking in) of the passbook 1 conveyed in this discharge direction passes the detector 28 again, the passbook l is transferred to the detector 2.
Based on the output signal of 8, the tooth 4 is conveyed to a reading/writing position in the reading/folding device 24, that is, a predetermined position of the spear 2, as shown in FIG. 8(b). That is, when the rear end detection signal is output from the detector 28, the conveyance control unit 23 controls the motor 2 by a predetermined number of pulses.
1 is driven and then stopped.

In other words, the reason why the rear end of the passbook l is detected by the detector 28 is that after the rear end of the passbook l is reliably taken into the device, a reference signal for conveying the passbook l is obtained. This is because they are doing so.

As a result, all detectors are installed to obtain a reference signal 'f' for conveying the bankbook l from the bankbook insertion slot 16 to a position closer than the length of the bankbook 1 in the conveying direction, for example, in order to downsize the bank. When a passbook L is inserted and the user detects that the tip reaches the detector in a state where the user can touch the passbook L, and this is used as a reference for transport, the transport state of the passbook L is detected. It is expected that this will be disturbed by the vu user, but as mentioned above, the reference signal for transport is obtained after the rear end of the passbook 1 is reliably taken into the device, so the user cannot transport it. The state is not disturbed. In addition, in order to convey the passbook l to the reading device t24, the trailing end detection signal from the detector 28 when the passbook i<fetching, passing through the detector 28, conveying it by a predetermined amount, and conveying it in the yield discharge direction. Since the reference signal is used as the reference signal, it is also possible to prevent uneven conveyance due to the pack 2 tension of the pack when the motor 21 is reversed from the take-in direction to the discharge direction. therefore,
The inserted bankbook 1'fcfr1i can be easily conveyed to a predetermined position and stopped accurately.

When the bankbook I is set in a predetermined position in the reading/writing device 24, the bankbook holding section 25 operates to hold down the magnetic recording section 7 of the bankbook I, and the head drive section 26 operates. By moving the magnetic head in sliding contact with the magnetic recording section 7, the magnetic head reads printed information from the magnetic recording section 7, such as the account number, bank balance, and the number of pages and lines of the passbook to be printed. . When this reading is completed, the conveyance control unit 23 rotates the motor 21 forward again, that is, in the receiving direction, so that the passbook 1 is again conveyed in the receiving direction and passes the detector 28. Detect the rear end of I. The passbook 1 is further conveyed in the receiving direction, and the passbook 4
The paper is conveyed to the printing position in the printing section 27 as shown in FIG. 2(C). At this time, the rear end detection signal from the detector 28 and the reading I4
By setting the number of pulses to be conveyed based on the printed ↑H signal read by the y and honokomi device 24, the isthmus l is transferred to the printing section 27.
It is possible to accurately convey the paper to the printing position within the paper and stop it. That is, the read/write device 24 read the text [4]
The character information is input to the conveyance control II5; When the rear end detection signal (m) is received from 28, the motor 21 is driven by the number of pulses determined above, and the bankbook I is conveyed to the printing position.

In this way, when the bankbook I is set in the printing position in the printing unit 22, the printing unit 27 operates and the deposited amount or payment amount is printed on the printing surface of the bankbook I.

Print out all transaction records such as balance and balance. When this printing is completed, the conveyance control unit 2s rotates the motor 21 in the reverse direction, that is, in the ejecting direction again, so that the passbook l is again conveyed in the ejecting direction and passes the detector 28. The entire rear end is detected. When this trailing edge detection signal is input, the conveyance control unit 23 further drives the motor 21 by a predetermined number of pulses based on the signal, thereby conveying the passbook l further in the ejection direction and again. ) in the predetermined position in the reading/writing device 24. Then, when the bankbook l is set in the reading/writing device 24 again, the k cash collecting device 24 performs the same operation as the reading operation, and this time the magnetic 1N information stored in the magnetic recording section 7 is read. (deposit balance, printed information). Namely.

The new magnetic information is loaded and the rewritten magnetic information is read to check that the rewriting has been completed correctly. In this way, when the magnetic information is rewritten,
The conveyance control unit 23 rotates the motor 21 in the reverse direction again to convey the bankbook 1'i in the ejection direction, and ejects the bankbook l't from the insertion opening 16, thereby completing all processing.

In this way, when transporting the passbook l inserted from the passbook insertion slot 16 to the reading and writing device 24, and when transporting the printed passbook l from the printing unit 27 to the reading and writing device @;14, Since the paper always passes the detector 28 from the same direction and is further transported in the same direction to the reading/writing device Mz4, it is possible to prevent uneven transport due to back racks of the gears of the transport mechanism, etc. . As a result, the passbook l
It is very convenient to convey the information to a predetermined position within the reading/swearing device [24] with high accuracy and stopping it, so that information can always be accurately read and sworn into the passbook IcD magnetic recording section 7.

In addition, in the above-mentioned embodiment, the case where the magnetic recording part fr: south is provided on the good cover in parallel with the binding section is dealt with is handled.
For example, the passbook may have a magnetic recording section perpendicular to the spelling, and the magnetic recording section may be located on the front cover instead of the back cover. In addition, the detector used to detect 9M after the passbook as a reference for conveyance, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, it may be used as a reference for conveyance by detecting the entire leading edge, or by detecting both the leading edge and the trailing edge. It may also be used as a reference for conveyance by using a signal together.

Further, in the above embodiments, the case is described in which the application is applied to a passbook handling device that handles magnetic passbooks in a currency transaction device, but the present invention is not limited to this. The present invention can be similarly applied to card handling devices that perform .

To simulate this, a form such as a passbook or card that has a magnetic recording section on one surface is accepted by the original user, is transported to a predetermined position where magnetic information is read and/or written, and the magnetic information is read. The present invention can be applied to any form handling device that performs and/or credit card processing.

As described in detail above, according to the present invention, a received form having a magnetic recording part can be transported without disturbing the conveyance state by a user, or with
It is not affected by dust, etc., and can be conveyed to the predetermined position where magnetic information is taken and/or written, and stopped accurately, so that the reading and/or writing of information on the magnetic recording part of the form is always accurate. We can provide a method of handling the book festival that can be carried out.
