  • vending machines are to be understood as machines which, for example, dispense drinks, such as coffee, tea, etc. in portions, or which dispense beverage bottles, beverage cans, dishes, etc. after payment.
  • machines are to be understood that provide a service after payment, for example, open access to a telecommunications network, offer video and / or audio demonstrations or also perform activities such as. B. cleaning shoes, washing clothes, etc.
  • vending machines of this type the transaction is usually started by inserting coins into a coin switching device or by entering banknotes into a banknote validator.
  • vending machines have recently been used which have a chip card reader and can debit from an account stored on the chip card in order to carry out the transaction.
  • a fingerprint input with a print sensor connected to the control unit is provided, the control unit contains a fingerprint recognition and is set up to at least one amount determined after actuation of the money input via the print sensor assign scanned fingerprint as credit and later Transactions after re-entering a fingerprint and entering commands via the entry without cash, to be carried out by debiting the credit, if the newly entered fingerprint is recognized as matching the one entered when the credit was opened
  • the invention it is sufficient if the account of the vending machine opened by a first fingerprint is filled. For later transactions, it is sufficient to place a finger ball on the fingerprint input, which releases the account, and after the choice of the desired article, enables the sales process
  • control unit is set up to assign the scanned fingerprint in addition to the credit to the selected goods after actuation of the money input and a selection of goods via the input, with a newly entered fingerprint including a transaction relating to the selected goods including debiting of the credit without further explicit command input
  • This configuration has the advantage that in subsequent transactions, placing a ball of finger on the fingerprint input is sufficient to trigger the sales process without further input in the sense of a selection of goods.
  • the user of such a vending machine can also use the different fingerprints of his fingers to assign different goods to his fingers , so that, for example, a coffee dispenser is triggered with the index finger, whereas the dispensing of mineral water is triggered with the middle finger. In this case, it can be provided that more than a single fingerprint is assigned to the credit when the credit is set up
  • the entry of money can advantageously have a coin switching device, a bill validator or a chip card reader
  • a vending machine has an actual, generally electromechanical, machine part MAT, which is set up, for example, to dispense beverages. Via a bus system, this machine part MAT is connected to a control unit STE, which has at least one processor CPU and at least one contains a memory SPE.

  • a user of the vending machine according to the invention will first build up a credit by inserting money or inserting a chip card and then the vending machine will prompt him to put the ball of his finger on the fingerprint input FAD or its print sensor PSE. Now the fingerprint is scanned and this or its features are stored in the control unit and at the same time the amount built up is assigned to the fingerprint features as credit.
  • the control unit is now set up to carry out a cashless transaction by debiting the opened account when a new fingerprint is entered and, if necessary, a command by entering TAS, provided that the fingerprint now entered or scanned is correct in a certain minimum number of characteristics with the stored one Match.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un distributeur automatique servant à délivrer des marchandises et/ou à fournir des services, comportant une unité de commande (STE), qui contient au moins un processeur (CPU) et au moins une mémoire (SPE), au moins un dispositif d'introduction d'argent (GSP, MSG, CKL) servant à générer un avoir, et un dispositif d'entrée (TAS) servant à commander le distributeur, en particulier à sélectionner les marchandises. Ce distributeur comporte également un dispositif d'entrée d'empreintes digitales (FAD) pourvu d'un capteur d'empreintes (PSE) qui est raccordé à ladite unité de commande (STE). Cette unité de commande contient un dispositif de reconnaissance d'empreintes digitales (FAE) et sert à affecter comme avoir, à au moins une empreinte digitale examinée par l'intermédiaire du capteur d'empreintes (PSE), une somme déterminée après actionnement du dispositif d'introduction d'argent (GSP, MSC, CKL), et à réaliser des transactions ultérieures, après une entrée récente d'une empreinte digitale et une entrée de commande par l'intermédiaire du dispositif d'introduction, cela sans argent liquide, par déduction sur l'avoir, si l'empreinte digitale récemment introduite est reconnue comme correspondant à celle introduite lors de l'ouverture de l'avoir.
