Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a coupon ticket, and more particularly to a magnetic coupon ticket that can replace the conventional paper-bound coupon ticket.

Conventionally, coupon-type tickets consist of multiple tickets that are continuous through perforations, and are separated into a single ticket each time they are used, or have multiple stamping spaces. , a structure in which a seal is stamped each time it is used to notify the number of times it has been used or the number of degrees has been used.

However, these conventional coupon-type tickets have the drawback that it requires a lot of effort to organize the data after collecting the used tickets.

As a result of research to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, the inventor of the present invention found that a magnetic recording section made of a magnetic layer is provided on one side of the card base material instead of the conventional coupon type ticket, and the card base material A valid number display section is provided on the other side of the ticket, and the number of valid times is displayed by a number of heat-sensitive colored sections corresponding to the number of valid times of the ticket, and the magnetic ticket is used in which the number of valid times of the ticket is magnetically recorded in the magnetic recording section. When the magnetic coupon ticket is set in the magnetic reader, the control circuits of parking lot gates, copy machines, automatic ticket machines, public telephones, etc. are turned on, and after the above equipment is used, the magnetic recording section is activated. The number of times is re-recorded as the number of times subtracted by the number of times of use,
In addition, if the method is such that the magnetic number of times is ignored by the user after the heat-sensitive coloring part of the valid number of times display section is thermally colored for the number of times of use, manual data organization after used items are collected becomes unnecessary. We have discovered that this invention has the outstanding effect of eliminating the need to collect fees such as parking lot usage fees, copy machine usage fees, public telephone usage fees, etc., and based on this knowledge, we have completed the present invention. be.

That is, the gist of the present invention is that a magnetic recording part made of a magnetic layer and a valid number display part made of a heat-sensitive coloring part corresponding to the number of valid times of the coupon ticket are provided on one side of the card base material, and the magnetic recording part The magnetic ticket is characterized in that the number of times the ticket is valid is magnetically recorded.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

Figures 1 to 3 are magnetic coupon tickets according to the present invention.

A magnetic recording section 4 made of a magnetic layer is provided on one side 2 of the card base 1, and a number of heat-sensitive coloring sections 5 ₁ corresponding to the valid number of coupons are provided on the other side 3 of the card base 1. A valid number display unit 6 consisting of 5 ₂ , 5 ₉₉ , 5 ₁₀₀ is provided, and the magnetic recording unit 4 displays a start mark, a ticket issuing company, an ID code, an area code, a ticket issue number, The valid number of times the ticket is valid and the end mark are magnetically recorded.

In the magnetic ticket of the present invention, paper, polyvinyl chloride film, acetate film, polyester film, and laminates thereof can be used as the card base material 1.

Next, as the magnetic recording part 4, γ-Fe ₂ O ₃ , Fe ₃ O ₄
A layer containing a magnetic metal such as an iron oxide magnetic material such as an iron oxide magnetic material, chromium, cobalt, or other metals such as barium or strontium, or a Fe--Co alloy can be applied. This magnetic layer is formed by a printing method such as gravure, flexo, or screen printing, a method of laminating magnetic tape, or a thermal transfer method, and its thickness is usually 1 to 30 μm.

Next, in the above-mentioned magnetic ticket of the present invention, instead of forming the heat-sensitive coloring part as shown in the first figure, a solid heat-sensitive coloring layer 15 is provided as shown in the sixth figure, and a regular printing layer 16 in the form of a grid is provided thereon. It may also be formed by

Next, the usage of the magnetic coupon of the present invention will be explained by giving an example in which the magnetic coupon of the present invention is used as a magnetic coupon for parking fee payment.

FIG. 4 shows a block diagram of the case where a parking lot is used using the magnetic ticket of the present invention.

First, the parking lot user inserts the magnetic coupon ticket 7 into the coupon receiving and discharging device 8 . When the magnetic coupon 7 is inserted into the coupon receiving and discharging device 8, the magnetic reader 9 and the counting circuit 1 are read from the coupon receiving and discharging device 8.
A signal a is sent to 0. The valid number of times is read by the read head of the magnetic reading device 9 to which the signal a is input, and the data signal b of the valid number of times read is sent to the counting circuit 10. When data signal b and signal a are input to counting circuit 10, signal c is sent from counting circuit 10 to line control circuit 11, thereby turning on line control circuit 11. When the gate opening button is pressed in this state, the gate opening/closing device is activated and the gate is opened. When the gate is opened, a signal d indicating this fact is sent from the terminal 12 to the counting circuit 10. In response to the signal d, the counting circuit 10 starts counting, with the valid number of times read from the magnetic ticket as the first number, and a certain period of time (for example, 30 minutes) as one count. After the gate is opened, the gate opening/closing device is activated again and the gate is automatically closed when a sufficient time has elapsed for the vehicle to enter the parking lot. When a parking lot user wants to stop using the parking lot and take the car out of the parking lot, the user presses a gate release button to open the gate.

When the gate is opened, a signal e is sent from the line control circuit 11 to the magnetic writing device 13 and the thermal printing device 14 for counting the number of times 10, and the coupon receiving and discharging device 8
Signal 5 is sent to. Counting circuit 1 receiving signal e
0 ends counting of usage frequency.

Next, the data signal g of the final count number is sent to the magnetic writing device 13 and the thermal printing device 14, and after the valid number of times before the ticket is used is erased from the magnetic recording section, the valid number of times after the ticket is used is updated. The information is written in the magnetic recording section, and at the same time, as shown in FIG. 5, a number of thermosensitive coloring sections corresponding to the number of times of use are colored. When the magnetic recording of the valid number of tickets and the thermal printing are completed, the magnetic ticket is discharged from the receiving and discharging device 6 and returned to the user. The user can carry the returned magnetic ticket with him and use the magnetic ticket on another occasion to use the parking lot in the same way, repeating the process until the valid number of tickets reaches 0. magnetic coupons can be used. In this way, according to the magnetic ticket of the present invention, it is possible to have parking lot users purchase a magnetic ticket in advance and have them use the magnetic ticket to use the parking lot. There is no need to collect usage fees for each parking lot, making management of usage fees extremely easy.

Above, we have explained an example in which the magnetic coupon of the present invention is used for paying parking fees.
It can also be effectively used to pay for taxi fares, public phone charges, etc.

In addition, the number of valid tickets can be displayed by thermal printing, and the number of maintenance required for a thermal printing device is much less than that for a ribbon-type printing device, so the magnetic coupon ticket of the present invention It is suitable for magnetic coupons for paying usage fees for things such as public telephones, which exist in large numbers everywhere.
