Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a data input/output device installed adjacent to a refueling device at a refueling station, for example.

[Prior Art] For example, at a gas station, a data input/output device is provided relatively close to the refueling device, such as on an island, to input and output refueling and other data to control the refueling machine and issue refueling slips. This data input/output device may be installed in the office, but in order to reduce the amount of labor required by the workers, it is installed adjacent to the refueling device, so it is installed outdoors and in a location that is easily exposed to wind and rain. It is installed in

The slips used for this data input/output device are two continuous sheets of perforated paper, one of which is given to the customer and the other is kept at the gas station. .

However, according to the prior art, the printed slips were directly exposed to the outside of the device, so there was an inconvenience that the slips could be twisted or torn by the wind and blown away.

[Object of the Invention] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a data input/output device that prevents slips from being blown away by the wind even when installed outdoors, and that can simultaneously replenish printed slips and take out printed slips.

[Configuration of the Invention] According to the present invention, a storage room for printed slips and a storage room for printed slips are provided, and a common lid that can be opened and closed is provided for these compartments.

[Operations and Effects of the Invention] Therefore, since the lid is always closed, the slips will not be blown away by the wind, and at the end of the day, for example, all you have to do is open the lid and take out the printed slips from the storage room.

Furthermore, even when all the printing slips have been printed, the lid can be opened and new printing slips can be added to the storage chamber. Therefore, slip management can be easily performed.

[Example] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

FIGS. 1 and 2 show a data input/output device embodying the present invention, designated as a whole by reference numeral A, and this data input/output device A is composed of a box-shaped casing C.
For example, it is provided adjacent to a refueling device at a gas station. Therefore, in the illustrated example, the accessory compartments 1a and 1b are located at the bottom.
An ashtray cleaner 2 is provided, and a cash box 3 is provided above the ashtray cleaner 2. A shutter 4 is designed to be lowered on the front side to prevent the store from being tampered with after the store is closed. On this front, a front cover 8 is provided which can be opened and closed with a hinge 5.5 and locked with a lock 7, which can be pivotally opened and closed with a hinge 5.5. Display device 9 that displays the amount of oil or its price, etc.
A keyboard 10 for operation is provided, and a card reader 11 is also provided. A part of the front face fI8 is cut out as indicated by the reference numeral 12, and this cutout 12 is provided with an opening/closing lid having a sliding lid 13, which will be described later, so that the slip receiving recess, that is, the retention chamber 14 can be opened and closed. ing. At the rear of this notch 12 is a printer 15.
In addition, a storage chamber 16 for printing slips and a storage chamber 17 for printed slips are provided.As shown in the figure, the storage chamber 16 is formed directly below the printer 15, and the storage chamber 17 is provided at the lower front side of the storage chamber 16. A document outlet 18 of this printer 15, which is preferably provided, is located at the retention chamber 14. 19 in the diagram
is the rail of the shutter 4.

Next, a more detailed explanation will be given with reference to enlarged views of FIGS. 3 to 7.

As shown in FIG. 4, the slip M1 for printing is stacked in two sheets and folded into the storage chamber 16, and this slip IM1 is sent to the printer 15, where it is printed. Both the printed slips M2 and M3 are sent out from the exit 18 to the retention chamber 14, and the slip M2 to be handed to the customer is sent to the retention chamber 14.
The management slip M3 is then folded in the storage room 17.

slide! 213 is preferably made of a transparent material, and as shown in FIG. In FIG. 4, it slides up and down to close the retention chamber 14. Slide for that! ! 13 is provided with a hole 21 for inserting a hand and lifting it. As shown in FIG. 4, a bent part 23 that is bent inward is formed at the tip of the opening/closing part 11D, and when the slide lid 13 is in the closed position, the tip of the slip M2 gets caught in the bent part 23, and It constitutes a separator that is separated from M3. In other words, when slide N13 is closed,
When the slip M1 is printed and printed out, even if the slip 3M2 to be given to the customer hits the slide W13 and slides down in the retention chamber 14, it gets caught in the bent portion 23 at its tip and hangs down toward the storage room 17 together with the slip M3. It seems like it never happens. And guide rail 2 of slide 11B
0 is provided with a lock groove 24, and a slide lid lock 25 is provided on the front face 128 at a position where the lock groove 24 engages when the slide M13 is closed.

As shown in FIG. 6, this slide lid lock 25 is preferably constructed by bending a leaf spring, for example, but any other suitable known means may be used. The opening/closing lid can be opened on a hinge 26 to the position shown by the dotted line D- in Fig. 4.
Therefore, the opening/closing lid lock 27 for holding the opening/closing 11D in the closed position is located on the front 1.
It is set at 18. This lock 27 is preferably formed by engaging a protrusion 30 with an enlarged head by a ball 32 actuated by a spring 31, as shown for example in FIG. 7, but other means may be used. Third
In the figure, SWl indicates a switch that detects opening/closing of the opening/closing 11D, and SW2 is a paper feed switch for causing the printer to insert the slip when the slip is inserted.

When the wind and rain are strong, the slide lid 13 is in the position shown by the chain line 13- in FIG. Therefore, the casing C is substantially closed, and the slip M2 will not fly away or get wet, and rainwater will not flow into the casing.

After printing the slip, the worker inserts his finger into the hole 21 and moves the slide lid 13 downward to release the lock 25 and take out the slip M2.

Further, when taking out the slip M3 in the storage chamber 17, or when inserting a new slip after the slip WM1 in the storage chamber 16 is used up, the opening/closing KID is opened to the position 11)- shown by the chain line in FIG. At this time, lower the slide lid 13 and open/close it by hand.
) can be corrected beforehand. Then, there is a storage room 16 and a storage room 17 behind it, so you can replenish slip M1 or replenish slip M3.
It is easy to take out. After replenishing the slip M1, it is sufficient to insert the switch SW2 and insert it into the printer 15.

Also includes a printer 15, a display 9, and a keyboard 10.
When inspecting and servicing the card reader 11, it is sufficient to unlock the lock 7 and open the front cover 8 forward using the hinge 5.

[Summary] As described above, according to the present invention, an opening/closing lid is provided for the storage chamber for printed slips and the storage chamber for printed slips, so even if the data input/output device is installed outdoors, the slips will not be exposed to wind. There is no possibility of the slip being skipped, and the processing of the slip can be done easily.
