DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to an improvement in an electronic cash register capable of issuing authentication slips.

[Technical background of the invention and its problems]

Electronic cash registers (hereinafter abbreviated as registers) installed at digital cash registers, specialty stores, etc. are used when registering the sale of many products in succession. There is also a system that allows the subtotal amount of the purchased product to be printed out on the authentication slip. Such a certification document is
For example, this is used when a customer orders products for multiple destinations and creates a shipping slip by subtotaling the slips for each destination group.

In such a register, for example, it is assumed that a receipt as shown in FIG. 1 is issued as a result of successive sales registration of seven products. Women's clothing 9,80.0. -Men's clothing 12,600. -Children's clothing 48
If you register 0- using the registration keys such as the number key or department key provided on the register key, and press the subtotal key at point A in the figure, the subtotal amount for the three points above will be displayed on the authentication slip. ¥27,
200. - is printed.

Next, if you register underwear and socks in succession and press the subtotal key at point B in the diagram, the total price of all sales items (7 items) will be ¥30,000 on the authentication slip. - is printed.

Therefore, as in the example above, each musical piece group is of course /J\
If a certification slip with the total amount printed is required, for example, 2,800. - If you need a subdivision amount, please use the traditional register. However, there were problems that could not be addressed.

[Purpose of the invention]

The present invention has been made based on these circumstances, and its purpose is to divide the total amount and create subtotals corresponding to multiple product groups by providing a subtotal memory dedicated to the slip subtotal key. Our goal is to provide an electronic cash register that can issue authentication slips with printed amounts.
[Summary of the Invention] The present invention provides a slip key that prints out the subtotal value of the sales amount of any number of consecutive products in a plurality of consecutively registered sales products on an authentication slip, and A slip subtotal memory is provided to sequentially and cumulatively store all the sales amounts of sold products inputted manually. Then, when the ``2'' slip subtotal key is pressed manually, the slip subtotal amount cumulatively stored in the slip subtotal memory is printed out on the authentication slip by the printer device, and the contents stored in the slip subtotal memory are printed out. It is something to clear.

[Embodiments of the invention]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An electronic cash register according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

Figure 2 is a master diagram showing an electronic cash register (cash register).On the front of the case #1, there are keys 2, control keys 3, slip insertion slot 4, and receipt issuing slot 5. At the top of the front of the housing 1, there is a dot matrix that displays the department code of the product being sold, the subdivided amount, the subtotal amount of the slip, the total amount, etc.
A display section 6 is also provided.

In addition to the keys 1 and 2, there is a number key 7 for entering the sales amount of the product, the number of sales items, etc., a department key 8 indicating the classification of the product, and a deposit/cash key 9. Accounting -10, slip subtotal key 11, etc. are arranged.

The three control keys are control switches for controlling the power supply on and off, and for instructing the central processing unit to execute various tasks such as "registration" and "accounting". In addition, "registration" means storing sales data such as the price of the product sold in the storage unit, and calculating the total price, etc.
This is the job of printing the results on receipts and recording paper. In addition, "settlement" refers to the process of clearing the contents of the storage unit after printing out the total sales amount, sales amount, etc. accumulated in the storage unit using "registration" at the end of the day's work. It is.

Figure 3 is a block diagram of the register ◎cpU(
It has a built-in arithmetic circuit, command register, etc., and performs arithmetic processing for each scale based on input information from one key, two keys, etc., and also has a data bus (15). A ROM 17 stores fixed data for programs such as "registration" and "payment" via control signals, and a RAM stores variable data such as sales data for each product entered by a key person.
I8.

The operation of the data selector circuit 19 and the like is changed. i, CPU
14 includes a print buffer storage unit 2 that stores print data to be sent to the printer drive circuit 2o via the data selector circuit 19, and a display buffer storage unit 23 that stores display data to be sent to the display drive circuit 22. is connected 1. tfc, the CPU l 4 includes a keyboard circuit 24 into which key signals from the key fob 2 are input, and a printer 25 which prints on receipts and authentication slips.
Printer control circuit 2o r AiJ print buffer storage section 2 - 2 display section drive circuit 22 The display buffer storage section 23 is controlled via each control line 16 .

In the RAM 18, as shown in FIG. 4 1', there is a sales data area 26 that stores sales data such as department codes, department names, and cumulative sales amounts classified by department of sales products.
, a total amount area 27 for cumulatively storing the total amount of items purchased by one customer, and a slip subtotal amount area 28 for cumulatively storing the total amount of items purchased by one customer.

For the front api CPU 14, the control key 3 is the normal “
The system is configured to control each section based on the flowcharts shown in FIGS. 5 to 9, based on human input signals from the various keys from the keyboard 2 in the "registration" mode.

That is, first, in FIG. 5, the glaze of the key signals manually input from the keyboard is examined. If the key signal is from the numeric keys 7 from O to 9, human input from other numeric keys 7, department keys 8, deposit/account keys 9, etc. is waited for.

If the key signal is from the department key 8, it is determined that the amount of the product has already been input by operating the number key 7 and the department code of this product has been designated, and the process moves to PA in FIG. In FA, the input amount is added to the total amount in the total amount area 27 of the RAM 18, the slip subtotal amount in the slip subtotal amount area 28, and the cumulative sales amount of the corresponding department code in the sales data area 26, respectively. Then, the department code entered manually, the department name of the entered department code in the sales data area 26, and the amount entered manually are sent to the print buffer storage section 2 via the data selector circuit 19. Then, a drive command is sent to the printer drive circuit 20, and the department code is sent to the printer 25 as shown in FIG.

Print out the department name and amount on the receipt.

Similarly, the department code is sent to the display buffer storage section 23.

The amount is sent and displayed on the display section 6 via the display section drive circuit 22.

If the key signal in Figure 5 is for the slip subtotal key 1, then
It is determined that the registration of at least one product has already been completed, and the process moves to PB in Figure 7. After confirming that the authentication slip has already been properly set in the slip insertion slot 4 in step m, insert the slip into the slip slot 4. The slip subtotal amount of the subtotal key 1/28 is transferred to the cylinder buffer storage section 21. In the print buffer storage section 21, the slip subtotal amount is compressed into the printing format of the authentication slip shown in FIG. 10(a). Then, the printer 25 prints the serial shop, daily, cash register, "slip total", and slip subtotal amount in a horizontal line on the authentication slip. Note that since the authentication slip is inserted between the receipt and the type in the printer 25, the subtotal amount of the slip will not be printed on the receipt. Further, the slip subtotal amount is transferred to the display buffer storage section 23. Then, as shown in FIG. 10(b), each dot matrix display element of the display section 6 displays, for example, "NINSHOKEI 27200J." Then, when the printing on the authentication slip and the display on the display section 6 are completed, , the slip subtotal amount in the slip subtotal amount area 28 is cleared to zero.

If the key signal in FIG. 5 is that of the subtotal key, move to the PC in FIG. , is printed on the slip and displayed on the display unit 6 in the same procedure as the slip subtotal amount. However, the total amount is not clear. Furthermore, the key signal in Figure 5 is the deposit/cash key 9.
If so, it is determined that the registration of all products for one customer has been completed, and the process moves to the PD shown in FIG. indicate.

When the deposited amount (price) received from the customer is entered from the number key 7 and the deposit/cash key 9 is pressed again, the deposited amount is output on the receipt display section 6 and when change is required. , calculates the change, and outputs the change to the receipt display section 6 again. Thereafter, the total amount and the slip subtotal amount in the total amount area 27 and the slip subtotal amount area 28 are cleared to zero, and the business ends.

In the register configured in this way, when the two department codes for the product amounts are entered sequentially using the number key 7 and the department key 8, the total amount and the amount in the total amount area 27 and the slip subtotal amount area 28 are displayed. The subtotal amount changes as shown in FIG. 11. For example, when registering women's clothing (product code 002) that costs 9,800 yen, enter 9800 using the ``Gasashi'' key 7, and enter 002 (product code 002) using the department key 8.
When DP2) is input, 9800 is stored in the total amount area 22 and the slip subtotal amount area 28, respectively. Then, when the products are registered one after another, the authentication slip is set at point C in the figure, and the slip subtotal key 11 is pressed, the slip subtotal amount 27 is 10% of the three products in the slip subtotal amount area 28.
200 is printed on the authentication slip in the format shown in FIG. 10(,), and is displayed electronically on the display unit 6 in the format shown in FIG. 10(b). Then, when printing and display are completed, the slip subtotal amount is cleared to zero. Next, after registering three other products, press the slip subtotal key 1.
The slip subtotal amount 1900, which is the subtotal amount of the three products mentioned above, is printed on the certified HIE record and displayed on the display section 6.

Further, when the subtotal key 10 is pressed at time D, the total amount 2Q 100 in the total amount area 27 indicating the total amount of all the products (six items) registered in Imaoke can be output to the subtotal slip and the display section 6.

If you press the slip subtotal key 11 in this way, the slip subtotal key 1
From the moment you press 1, the subtotal amount of the registered products can be output to the authentication slip continuously. Therefore, the registration order of all pre-d1 sales items can be set for each product group. Accordingly, it is possible to issue an authentication slip with the subtotal amount printed on it for the product group of the number of sheets obtained by dividing the total amount.

In addition, in this embodiment, since the conventional subdivision key 10 is also provided, it is also possible to check the total price of all the products that have been registered during registration.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, by providing a slip subtotal memory (slip subtotal amount area) exclusively for the slip subtotal key, the total amount is divided and the subtotal amount corresponding to multiple product groups is printed. Can issue slips
