Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Field of invention) The present invention relates to a commuter pass for automatic ticket gates.

(Summary of the Invention) The present invention is a commuter pass that can be passed through an automatic ticket gate even while stored in a holder (so-called commuter pass).

(Prior art and its problems) Conventional commuter passes have unique data magnetically recorded on them, and when the commuter pass is inserted into the slot of an automatic ticket gate, the recorded magnetic data is transferred to the automatic ticket gate. It is designed to be read.

However, in the case of the conventional example with such a configuration, the user needs to insert the commuter pass into the slot, and if the commuter pass is stored in the holder, it is necessary to insert the commuter pass into the slot every time the user passes through the automatic ticket gate. , the user must take out the commuter pass from the holder and put it into the slot, take it out from the takeout slot of the automatic ticket gate after or just before passing through, and then put the commuter pass back into the holder. This has the disadvantage that it is extremely troublesome to pass through the automatic ticket gate, and as a result, passing through the automatic ticket gate takes time and effort, resulting in stagnation at the entrance of the automatic ticket gate. Especially if you have luggage,
There was a drawback that it required more time and effort to insert and remove the commuter pass.

(Objective of the Invention) The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and allows the commuter pass to be inserted into the slot of an automatic ticket gate.
The purpose is to allow the device to pass through an automatic ticket gate while remaining in the holder.

(Structure and effect of the invention) In order to achieve such an object, the present invention includes a power supply loop coil that generates an induced electromotive force by electromagnetic induction and outputs an alternating current output, and a power supply loop coil that generates an AC output by generating an induced electromotive force by electromagnetic induction. It is configured to include a power supply unit that converts AC output into DC output and uses the DC output as an operating power source, and data transmission means that transmits and outputs a preset unique data signal by code transmission.

According to this configuration, a data signal is transmitted and output from the commuter pass, and the commuter pass can be passed near the receiving section attached to the automatic ticket gate without having to directly act on the reading means of the automatic ticket gate. As long as you do so, you can pass through the automatic ticket gate with it stored in the holder.

Therefore, there is no need to take the trouble of taking the commuter pass in and out of the holder, inserting it into the recessed slot of the automatic ticket gate, and taking it out from the takeout slot, reducing stagnation at the entrance of the automatic ticket gate, and automatically You can now pass through the ticket gate.

In addition, since the power supply for transmitting data signals from the commuter pass is obtained externally through electromagnetic induction, there is no need to build a power supply into the commuter pass itself, and the commuter pass does not lose its lightness. , which is extremely useful in practice.

Furthermore, since the data signal is transmitted by code transmission, for example, when using LC*C direct debit, it is necessary to select a large number of frequencies to identify commuter passes, and the number of frequencies used is large. Although it cannot be practically applied to commuter passes, it is now possible to easily distinguish between multiple commuter passes.

(Description of Examples) Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on examples shown in the drawings. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a commuter pass according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The commuter pass I includes a power supply loop coil 2, a power supply unit 3 that rectifies and smoothes the AC output from the power supply loop coil 2, a data generation unit 4 that transmits and outputs a unique data signal, and a data generator 4 that transmits and outputs a unique data signal. It is provided with a transmitting section 5 that transmits and outputs signals, and a transmitting loop coil 6 that transmits and outputs data signals from the transmitting section 5 by code transmission.

The data generation section 4 includes a clock pulse generation circuit (CLK)
10, a soft register 11, and a timing circuit 12. When power is supplied from the power supply section 3, a clock pulse signal is output from the clock pulse generation circuit 10, and input settings are inputted to the setting section 13 in advance at the time of issuing a commuter pass. The unique data signal thus obtained is sent out from the shift register 11 based on timing control by the timing circuit 12.

The transmitter 5 includes a modulation circuit 14 that receives a signal from the data generator 4, a transmitter circuit 15, and an amplifier circuit 16, and the data signal specific to the commuter pass l is transmitted from the transmitter loop coil 6 as a high frequency signal. It is set to be sent.

This data signal is read by the automatic ticket gate, and based on the reading results, opening/closing control of the gate 29, display control of child commuter pass usage, etc. are performed. 30 is a ticket insertion slot.
