Automatic transaction devices such as TellerMachine (hereinafter referred to as ATM).

and teller-operated book-keeping machines at counters are widely used.

Many of these devices have a page-turning function, which makes operation easier for customers or tellers, but folds and jams are likely to occur due to poor page-turning, so a method to prevent this is desired. ing.

[Conventional technology]

The conventional method will be explained below with reference to FIGS. 6 to 8.

The same reference numerals indicate the same objects throughout the figures.

As shown in FIG. 6, the bookkeeping machine includes a device main body 2 equipped with an insertion slot 1 into which a passbook 5a is inserted horizontally, a keyboard 3 for inputting the customer's account number, transaction details, etc., and an operation process. It consists of a display 4 on which contents etc. are displayed. The device main body 2 is connected to a computer center (not shown) via a line.

Fig. 7 is an internal side view of the bookkeeping mechanism, and in the figure, 6
A indicates a conveyance path, 7 indicates a printer section, and 8 indicates a page turning section.

Therefore, when the teller inserts the bankbook 5a through the insertion slot 1, the bankbook 5a is conveyed along the conveyance path 6a by the rollers R+ and lb and sent to the printer section 7. When input is made by operating the keyboard 3, the data is displayed on the display 4. When the user confirms this and presses a confirmation button, communication with the computer center is performed, and the transaction data is printed on the passbook 5a by the printer section 7.

If the transaction data is printed over multiple lines and the last line of the page is printed during printing, the passbook 5a is sent to the page turning unit 8, the page is turned over, and the printer unit 7 prints the data again. will continue.

Upon completion of printing, the passbook 5a is ejected to the insertion slot 1.

Next, to explain the details of page turning, the page turning unit 8 is a roller 81 that holds the passbook 5a on the conveyance path 6a from above and below.
The rollers 81a and 82a are connected to motors 81a and 82a, respectively.

First, when the passbook 5a is sent to the position shown in FIG. 5a, and rollers 81a and 82a transfer the passbook 5a.
It stops at the turning position while holding the paper. Next, roller 81
When a is rotated in the forward direction and roller 82a is rotated in the opposite direction, the pages of the passbook 5a loosen and curve due to friction with the roller 81a, as shown in FIG.
As the rotation of 1a and 82a progresses, the curved edge of the page becomes
As shown in FIG. 8 fe), the roller 81a is flipped upward.

Therefore, when the rollers 81a and 82a are rotated in opposite directions and the passbook 5a is sent in the direction of the printer section 7, that is, in the direction of arrow B, the page above the roller 81a is transferred to the roller 81a.
The page is turned by pressing the button.

Printing continues on the passbook 5a whose pages have been turned over in this manner.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

According to the above-mentioned conventional method, since page turning depends only on the frictional force between the roller and the passbook caused by simple forward and reverse rotation of the roller, in the state shown in Fig. 8 (bl), multiple pages can be turned at once. There is a problem in that the paper may be transferred in the state shown in FIG. 8 (C1 (bl) due to slipping or the like, resulting in folding or jamming due to poor turning.

[Means for solving problems]

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of the principle of the present invention. In the figure,
5 is a passbook, 6 is a conveyance path, 81 and 82 are rollers, 9 is a counting means for counting a predetermined number of rotations of a plurality of rollers rotating in mutually opposite directions, and 10 is a roller opposite to the printing surface of the passbook 5 among the plurality of rollers. This is a retraction means for retracting the roller that is in contact with the surface from the conveyance path 6.

Therefore, when the predetermined number of revolutions is counted by the counting means 9,
It is configured to activate the evacuation means 10.

[Effect]

When a plurality of rollers start turning over 50 pages of the passbook by rotating in mutually opposite directions, and a predetermined number of rotations is counted by the counting means 9, the evacuation means 10 is activated and the rollers in contact with the surface opposite to the printed surface are moved to the conveyance path 6. By retracting the paper from the paper, it is possible to prevent multiple pages from being turned over, and from folding or jamming due to poor turning.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 2 to 5. The same reference numerals indicate the same objects throughout the figures. In FIG. 3, parts corresponding to those in FIG. 1 are shown surrounded by a dashed line.

FIG. 2 is a side view of the bookkeeping mechanism. As shown in the figure, the page turning section 8a is provided with a plunger magnet 10a for retracting the roller 82b from the conveyance path 6, and a lever 1).

Further, a coil spring 84 having straight portions 85 and 86 at both ends is rotatably wound around the shaft 83 of the roller 81b. The straight part 85 is positioned so as to be pressed in contact with the pages of the passbook 5a that are turned over, and the tip of the straight part 86 is located away from above the face of the passbook 58 and faces the contact 12 of the microswitch Sv4 at a predetermined distance. are doing.

The straight sections 85, 86 thus have a lever function.

In FIG. 3, the rotation counter 9a is the roller 81b.

This is a counting means for counting the rotations of the motors 82b in mutually opposite directions up to a set rotational speed N set in the setting section 9b (for example, the number of rotational steps of the motor gate). Further, 13 is a magnet driver, 14 is a motor driver, and 15 is a main control section.

Since it has such a configuration and function, the operation will be explained with reference to the flowchart in FIG. 4 and the operation process chart in FIG. 5. First, as shown in FIG.
Rollers 2b rotate in the directions of the arrows to transport the bankbook 5a, and rollers 81b and 82b stop at the turning position while holding the bankbook 5a between them.

Next, when the roller 81b is rotated in the forward direction and the roller 82b is rotated in the reverse direction, the rotation counter 9a is activated and the pages of the bankbook 5a are loosened and curved as shown in FIG.

■When the rotation counter 9a counts the set value N, the fifth
As shown in Figure (C1), the plunger magnet 10a
is excited, and the roller 82b is retracted below the lower surface of the conveyance path 6. At this time, the rotation of the roller 82b in the reverse direction is stopped.

(2) If a plurality of pages are turned over, the pressing force of the roller 82b is released, and the lower page returns to its original position due to the elasticity of the paper, leaving only one page curved.

(2) Turning is progressed by the rotation of the roller 81b.

(2) Then, the plunger magnet loa is de-energized and the roller 82b is returned to hold the passbook 5a.

(As the rotation of the roller 81b further progresses, the curved edge of the page is
bounce upwards.

■At this time, the straight part 85 of the spring 84 is pushed by the flipped up page as shown in the figure, and as a result, the straight part 86
The tip of the microsinch actuates the contact 12 of the microsinch to detect that the page has flipped up.

■If this flip-up operation is detected by the microswitch Sn, the roller 8T is activated as shown in FIG. 5 (el).

Rotate in the opposite direction to eliminate slack on the next page.

[Phase] If there is no detection by the microswitch Sw because the page does not flip up due to slipping or the like, the plunger magnet 10a is energized again and the roller 82
Evacuate b.

(2) Then, the roller 81b is rotated to flip it up.

(2) If the microswitch Sw is detected here, the roller 81b is rotated in the opposite direction to eliminate the slack in the next page.

■If there is no detection, the flow of ■ is repeated.

(2) De-energize the plunger magnet 10a, return the roller 82b, and press the passbook 5a.

(2) Then, when the rollers 81b and 82b are rotated in the opposite direction and the bankbook 5a is sent toward the printer section 7, the page turning of the page above the roller 81b is completed.

In this way, page turning is performed and printing of the passbook 5a is continued.

Although the case of a bookkeeping machine has been described above, it is of course applicable to other transaction devices 1 such as CDs and ATMs equipped with a bookkeeping mechanism with a page-turning function.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, it is possible to solve the problem of turning over a plurality of pages of a passbook, slipping, and other poor turning, and to prevent folding and jamming.
