Can be connected to the transport means 3 and transported again.

  Among the two passbook feeding units 10a and 10b, the passbook feeding unit 10a contains a plurality of new passbooks of A type and a new passbook of B type, and type C of the passbook feeding unit 10b. A plurality of new passbooks of and a new passbook of D type are accommodated respectively.

  The control unit 8 is electrically connected to the transport unit 3, the recording unit 4, the optical sensor 5, the printing unit 6, the page change unit 7, the drive unit 9, and two passbook delivery units 10 a and 10 b. It is electrically connected to the host controller in the system.

(2) Operation of Passbook Handling Device According to Present Embodiment Here, the operation of the passbook handling device 100 according to the present embodiment will be described. First, when the apparatus operator inserts the passbook 1 in an open state and inserts it from the insertion slot 2, the passbook 1 is transported to the upstream side in the transport direction of the transport means 3 and is sandwiched by a pair of upper and lower rollers. In such a state, the control unit 8 starts driving the transport motor of the drive unit 9 and rotates the pair of upper and lower rollers of the transport unit 3 to capture the passbook 1 into the passbook handling apparatus 100 from the insertion port 2 Transport of the passbook 1 is started toward the downstream side in the transport direction.

  When transporting the passbook 1 to the recording unit 4, the control unit 8 reads the transaction information of the device handler from the magnetic stripe of the passbook 1 by the recording unit 4, and based on the read transaction information of the device handler, the financial institution system Exchange various information with the host controller in

  When the passbook 1 is transported to the page changer 7, the control unit 8 stops driving the transport motor of the drive unit 9 to clamp the passbook 1 between the upper and lower rollers of the transport unit 3 and fix them. When the control unit 8 turns the cover page of the passbook 1 by the page change unit 7, the control unit 8 reads the number of printed lines and pages of the passbook 1 based on the detection signal from the optical sensor 5, and can print the page. Page turning is performed by the page changing unit 7 until The control unit 8 causes the printing unit 6 to print the transaction contents of the device handler based on various information exchanged with the host controller in the financial institution system, and when there are no print lines to be printed on the page, the page change unit The page is turned over at 7 and printing of the transaction details of the device operator is continued at the printing unit 6.

  Subsequently, when the printing by the printing unit 6 is completed, the control unit 8 starts driving the conveyance motor of the driving unit 9 to rotate the pair of upper and lower rollers of the conveyance unit 3 to move the passbook 1 toward the upstream side in the conveyance direction. Start conveying.

  When transporting the passbook 1 to the recording unit 4, the control unit 8 writes a record of the transaction information of the device handler on the magnetic stripe of the passbook 1 by the recording unit 4 and carries it out from the upstream side of the transport means 3 to the insertion slot 2 The driving of the conveyance motor of the driving means 9 is stopped. As a result, the passbook 1 unloaded from the insertion slot 2 is returned to the apparatus handler.

  Note that the control unit 8 causes the printing unit 6 to print the transaction contents of the device operator based on various information exchanged with the host controller in the financial institution system, and when there are no print lines printed on the page, page change is performed. In the case where the page is turned by the section 7 and printing of transaction contents of the apparatus handler is continued by the printing section 6, when the passbook 1 becomes full, the driving of the conveying motor of the driving means 9 is started. The pair of upper and lower rollers is rotated to start transporting the passbook 1 toward the downstream side in the transport direction and transport the passbook 1 to the evacuating path 11. The control unit 8 controls an electric drive source (for example, a motor or a solenoid) provided in the connection / disconnection mechanism of the drive unit 9 to separate the passbook 1 transported to the evacuating path 11 from the transport unit 3 via the connection mechanism. Thus, it is in a state of being retracted to the bypass 11.

  When the passbook 1 is saved on the bypass path 11, the control unit 8 corresponds to the passbook 1 transported to the bypass path 11 among the plurality of new passbooks accommodated in the two passbook feeding units 10a and 10b. The two passbook feeding units 10a and 10b are controlled to feed a new passbook of the desired type to the transport means 3 in a closed state. The control unit 8 starts driving the conveyance motor of the drive unit 9 and rotates the pair of upper and lower rollers of the conveyance unit 3 to start conveying the cover page of the new passbook toward the printing unit 6. When the control unit 8 conveys the front cover page of the new passbook to the position where printing starts by the printing unit 6, the drive motor 9 of the drive unit 9 is stopped to be held and fixed by the pair of upper and lower rollers of the transport unit 3 I assume. Based on the transaction information of the device handler read by the recording unit 4, the control unit 8 executes the name of the device handler or the branch name in the printing unit 6, and the page change unit 7 pages the cover page to handle the device. The printing unit 6 continues to print the transaction contents of the buyer.

  Subsequently, when the printing by the printing unit 6 is completed, the control unit 8 starts driving the conveyance motor of the driving unit 9 to rotate the pair of upper and lower rollers of the conveyance unit 3 to newly move toward the upstream side in the conveyance direction. When the passbook is started to be transported and a new passbook is transported to the recording unit 4, the recording unit 4 writes a record of the transaction information of the device handler in the magnetic stripe of the new passbook, and from the upstream side of the transport means 3 to the insertion slot 2 The conveyance motor of the drive means 9 is stopped driving. As a result, a new passbook carried out of the insertion slot 2 is returned to the apparatus handler.

  When a device operator takes out a new passbook from the insertion slot 2, the control unit 8 controls the electric drive source provided in the connection / disconnection mechanism of the drive unit 9 to withdraw the passbook 1 for withdrawal to the evacuating path 11. It is connected to the transport means 3 via the same to be in a state of being transported again. The control unit 8 starts driving the transport motor of the drive unit 9 and rotates the pair of upper and lower rollers of the transport unit 3 to start transporting the passbook 1 toward the upstream side in the transport direction. When transporting the passbook 1 to the recording unit 4, the control unit 8 writes a record of the transaction information of the device handler on the magnetic stripe of the passbook 1 by the recording unit 4 and carries it out from the upstream side of the transport means 3 to the insertion slot 2 . Furthermore, the control unit 8 stops driving the conveyance motor of the driving unit 9. As a result, the passbook 1 unloaded from the insertion slot 2 is returned to the apparatus handler.

The stacker S is configured of a stacker SA accommodating a plurality of new passbooks 20 of A type and a stacker SB accommodating a plurality of new passbooks 21 of B type by the wall surfaces 13a and 13b spaced apart by a predetermined distance dimension. It is done. The wall surfaces 13a and 13b are each formed of a flat rear surface of the thin plate by arranging the thin plates formed by bending in a substantially U shape so as to close the opening end side. In addition, an internal space is formed by arranging thin-walled plates formed by bending into a substantially U-shape so as to close the opening end side.

  The stacker SA accommodating a plurality of A-type new passbooks 20 is oriented such that the stitch side of the A-type new passbook 20 is directed to the bottom plate side of the passbook feeding unit 10a (the opening of the A-type new passbook 20 A new passbook 20 of the A type is arranged in order one by one from the wall surface 13a so that the end side is in the direction opposite to the bottom plate side of the passbook feeding unit 10a). In the stacker SA, the restoring force by the spring is applied via the plate-like pressing plate 12a to the last pass A new passbook 20 farthest from the wall surface 13a, whereby the pressing by the pressing plate 12a is applied to the wall surface 13a. It is in the state of being given toward the head.

  The stacker SB accommodating a plurality of B-type new passbooks 21 is oriented such that the stitch side of the B-type new passbook 21 is directed to the bottom plate side of the passbook feeding unit 10 a (the opening of the A-type new passbook 20 The new passbook 21 of the B type is arranged in order one by one from the wall surface 13b so that the end side is in the direction opposite to the bottom plate side of the passbook feeding unit 10a). In the stacker SB, the restoring force by the spring is applied to the last pass B new passbook 21 farthest from the wall surface 13b through the plate-like pressing plate 12b, whereby the pressing by the pressing plate 12b is applied to the wall surface 13b. It is in the state of being given toward the head.

  In the inner space formed by the wall surfaces 13a and 13b spaced apart by a predetermined distance dimension, a feeding groove formed in the bottom plate of the passbook 20 of a new type A passbook 20 stored in a plurality of stackers SA is formed. It includes an upper roller 14aa and a lower roller 14ab, a delivery motor for the stacker SA, and a stacker SA driving mechanism for transmitting the output of the delivery motor for the stacker SA as the rotation of the upper roller 14aa and the lower roller 14ab. Further, in the internal space, an upper roller 14ba and a lower roller 14bb that are fed out to a delivery groove formed in the bottom plate of the new passbook 21 of B type stored in the stacker SB in plurality, and the delivery for the stacker SB. A motor and a driving mechanism for the stacker SB for transmitting the output of the feeding motor for the stacker SB as the rotation of the upper roller 14ba and the lower roller 14bb are provided.

  In the wall surface 13a, rectangular openings are respectively formed at positions corresponding to the upper roller 14aa and the lower roller 14ab, and a part of the roller surface of the upper roller 14aa and a part of the roller surface of the lower roller 14ab Are exposed from the respective openings. Further, on the wall surface 13a, an upper flat bar 18aa having a rectangular shape is provided above the opening where a part of the roller surface of the upper roller 14aa is exposed. A central flat bar 18 ab having a rectangular shape between an opening where a part of the roller surface of the upper roller 14 aa is exposed and an opening where a part of the roller surface of the lower roller 14 a is exposed on the wall surface 13 a. A lower flat bar 18ac having a rectangular shape is provided below the opening where a part of the roller surface of the lower roller 14ab is exposed. Thus, the upper flat bar 18aa, the center side flat bar 18ab, and the lower flat bar 18ac which can close the gap formed between the new passbook 20 of type A and the wall surface 13a are provided. .

  The surface of the upper flat bar 18 aa on which the novel passbook 20 of type A contacts, the surface of the central flat bar 18 ab on which the novel passbook 20 of type A contacts, and the lower flat on which the novel passbook 20 of type A contacts The thicknesses of the upper flat bar 18aa, the center flat bar 18ab, and the lower flat bar 18ac are formed to be flush with each other on the surface of the bar 18ac. Further, the upper flat surface is lower (for example, several millimeters lower) relative to the wall surface 13a compared to the roller surface of the upper roller 14aa and the roller surface of the lower roller 14ab where these surfaces are partially exposed from each opening The thicknesses of the bar 18 aa, the central flat bar 18 ab, and the lower flat bar 18 ac are formed.

  Thereby, the restoring force by a spring is provided via the plate-like pressing plate 12a to the A type new passbook 20 stored in the stacker SA in plurality. Since the pressure by the pressing plate 12a is applied toward the wall surface 13a by this, the head pass type A new passbook 20 is a surface by the roller surface of the upper roller 14aa and the roller surface of the lower roller 14ab. The pressure can be obtained reliably. The control unit 8 starts driving the feeding motor for stacker SA and rotates the upper roller 14 aa and the lower roller 14 ab so that the bottom plate of the passbook feeding unit 10 a from the stitch side of the leading pass A of new passbook 20. It can be fed out toward the delivery groove formed in the above, and can be reliably delivered to the transport means 3 in a state in which the new passbook 20 of A type is closed from the delivery groove.

  Further, the surface facing the wall surface 13a side of the leading A type new passbook 20 is such that the entire upper side on the opening end side is in contact with the surface of the upper flat bar 18aa and a surface pressure is applied. The surface on the opposite side to the wall surface 13a side of the new passbook 20 of the kind is entirely brought into contact with the subsequent plurality of A type new passbooks 20 to apply a surface pressure. For this reason, it is possible to prevent the shape of both corner portions of the leading A-type new passbook 20 from being deformed with the change of temperature and humidity, and the passage of time, for example, connection of a guide plate (guide) etc. It is possible to suppress the occurrence of corner breakage and jamming of the leading A-type new passbook 20 when it is caught by the eye and fed out or transported.

  Furthermore, the surface facing the wall surface 13a side of the leading type A new passbook 20 has the entire upper part on the open end side in contact with the surface of the upper flat bar 18aa to apply a surface pressure, and the center thereof The whole is in contact with the surface of the central flat bar 18 ab to apply surface pressure, and the entire stitch side is in contact with the surface of the lower flat bar 18 ac to apply surface pressure, and the head type A The surface on the opposite side to the wall surface 13a side of the new passbook 20 is in contact with the entire surface by the plurality of A type new passbooks 20 that follow and a contact pressure is applied. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent warpage of the leading A type new passbook 20.

  Similar to the wall surface 13a, rectangular openings are formed in the wall surface 13b at positions corresponding to the upper roller 14ba and the lower roller 14bb, respectively, and part of the roller surface of the upper roller 14ba and the lower roller 14bb A part of the roller surface is exposed from each opening. Similarly to the wall surface 13a, the wall surface 13b is provided with an upper flat bar 18ba having a rectangular shape above the opening where a part of the roller surface of the upper roller 14ba is exposed, and a part of the roller surface of the upper roller 14ba A central flat bar 18bb having a rectangular shape is provided between an opening through which a portion of the lower roller 14bb is exposed and an opening through which a portion of the roller surface of the lower roller 14bb is exposed. A lower flat bar 18 bc having a rectangular shape is provided below the exposed opening. Thus, the upper flat bar 18 ba, the center side flat bar 18 bb, and the lower flat bar 18 bc are provided, which can close the gap formed between the B type new passbook 21 and the wall surface 13 b. .

  The surface of the upper flat bar 18 ba on which the B type new passbook 21 abuts, the surface of the central flat bar 18 bb on which the B type new passbook 21 contacts, and the lower flat in which the B type new passbook 21 contacts The surface of the bar 18 bc is on the side of the wall surface 13 b in comparison with the roller surface of the upper roller 14 ba and the roller surface of the lower roller 14 bb of which a part is exposed from each opening so that they are on the same plane. The thicknesses of the upper flat bar 18ba, the central flat bar 18bb, and the lower flat bar 18bc are formed to be lower (for example, several millimeters lower).

  As a result, the B type new passbook 21 accommodated in a plurality in the stacker SB is imparted with a restoring force by the spring via the plate-like pressing plate 12b to the last B type new passbook 21. Since the pressure by the pressing plate 12b is applied toward the wall surface 13b by this, the leading passbook B of new B type is a surface by the roller surface of the upper roller 14ba and the roller surface of the lower roller 14bb. The pressure can be obtained reliably. The control unit 8 starts driving the feeding motor for the stacker SB and rotates the upper roller 14ba and the lower roller 14bb to rotate the upper side of the new passbook 21 of B type from the stitch side to the bottom plate of the passbook feeding unit 10a. It can be fed out toward the formed delivery groove, and can be reliably delivered to the transport means 3 in a state in which the new B type passbook 21 is closed from the delivery groove.

  Further, the surface facing the wall surface 13b side of the leading B type new passbook 21 is in contact with the surface of the upper flat bar 18ba when the entire upper side on the opening end side is in contact with the surface and the leading B The surface on the opposite side to the wall surface 13b side of the new passbook 21 of a kind is entirely brought into contact with the subsequent plurality of B type new passbooks 21 to apply a surface pressure. For this reason, it is possible to suppress deformation of the shape of both corner portions of the leading B type new passbook 21 with changes in temperature and humidity, and the passage of time, for example, hooking at a joint such as a guide plate (guide) It is possible to suppress the occurrence of corner breakage and jamming of the leading B type new passbook 21 during feeding and conveyance.

  Furthermore, the surface facing the wall surface 13b side of the leading B type new passbook 21 is in contact with the surface of the upper flat bar 18ba with the entire upper end on the open end side applied with surface pressure, and the center thereof The whole is in contact with the surface of the central flat bar 18bb to apply a surface pressure, and the entire stitch side is in contact with the surface of the lower flat bar 18bc to apply a surface pressure, and the head type B The surface of the new passbook 21 on the opposite side to the wall surface 13a side is in contact with the whole by a plurality of B type new passbooks 21 to be applied with a surface pressure. For this reason, it is possible to prevent the warp of the leading B type new passbook 21 with the change of temperature and humidity and the passage of time.

(4) Shape of Pushing Plate According to this Embodiment Next, the configuration of the pressing plate 12a of the stacker SA and the pressing plate 12b of the stacker SB will be described. Since the stacker SA and the stacker SB have the same configuration, the pressing plate 12a of the stacker SA will be described here. The contents of the stacker SB and the various constituent members of the push plate 12b are indicated in parentheses following the contents of the stacker SA and the reference numerals given to the various constituent members of the push plate 12a. 6 (a) is a left side view of the stacker S of the passbook feeding unit 10a, and FIG. 6 (b) is a right side view of the stacker S of the passbook feeding unit 10a.

  The pressing plate 12a (12b) is a type A new passbook on the upper corners of the rectangular main body 12aa (12ba) which is smaller than the external shape of the type A new passbook 20 (type B new passbook 21). Warpage preventing portions 12ab, 12ab (12bb, 12bb) are provided to cover upper upper corner portions on the opening end side of 20 (new passbook 21 of B type), and the whole is formed in a Y-shaped plate shape as a whole . The center point of the upper side of the main body 12 aa (12 ba) of the pressing plate 12 a (12 b) in a state where the pressing plate 12 a (12 b) applies pressure to the new passbook 20 of A type (new passbook 21 of B type) And the center line passing through the middle point of the lower side are aligned with the central line passing through the middle point of the upper side and the lower side of the new passbook 20 of type A (new type 2 passbook of type B) The lower side of the main body 12aa (12ba) of the pressing plate 12a (12b) is positioned below the lower side of the A type new passbook 20 (B type new passbook 21).

  With such an arrangement, a left space is formed between the left side of the main body 12aa (12ba) of the pressing plate 12a (12b) and the left side of the A type new passbook 20 (type B new passbook 21). An upper space is formed between the upper side of the main body 12aa (12ba) of the plate 12a (12b) and the upper side of the new passbook 20 (new passbook 21 of B type), and the main body of the pressing plate 12a (12b) A right space is formed between the right side of the 12aa (12ba) and the right side of the A type new passbook 20 (the B type new passbook 21). The left side space, the upper side space, and the right side space are formed so that the refiller's finger can enter when the refiller refills the A type new passbook 20 (B type new passbook 21). The left space and the right space have the same size, and the upper space is formed as a space larger than the left space and the right space.

  Further, since the lower side of the main body 12aa (12ba) of the pressing plate 12a (12b) is positioned below the lower side of the A type new passbook 20 (the new type B passbook 21 of B type), the pressing plate 12a It is possible to press the stitch side of the A type new passbook 20 (B type new passbook 21) on the entire lower side of the main body 12aa (12ba) of (12b). The posture of the new passbook 20 (Class B new passbook 21) can thereby be suppressed by the amount of expansion of the new Bankbook 20 (class B new passbook 21) due to the stitches being suppressed. Can be prevented from being excessively inclined to the pressing plate 12a (12b) or the wall surface 13a (13b), so that the new passbook 20 of type A (new passbook 21 of type B) is maintained in the correct posture. Can be aligned.

  In addition, since the warpage preventing portions 12ab and 12ab (12bb and 12bb) can apply pressure to the upper two corners of the A type new passbook 20 (the B type new passbook 21), temperature and humidity can be applied. Change in shape of the new A bankbook 20 (B new bankbook 21) with the passage of time can prevent the shape of both corner portions from being deformed, for example, a guide plate (guide) etc. It is possible to suppress the occurrence of corner breakage, jamming, and the like of the A type new passbook 20 (B type new passbook 21) at the time of being caught and delivered or transported at the seam.

  Further, by forming the warpage preventing portions 12ab, 12ab (12bb, 12bb) in the pressing plate 12a (12b), a notch 12ac (12bc) is formed in the center of the upper side thereof. In this cutout portion 12ac (12bc), when the replenisher replenishes the new passbook 20 of type A (new passbook 21 of type B) to the stacker SA (SB), at least four fingers of the replenisher are It is formed to have a size that can be accommodated. Thereby, when the replenisher replenishes the new passbook 20 of type A (new passbook 21 of type B), at least four fingers of the supplementer interfere with the warp preventing portions 12ab and 12ab (12bb, 12bb). It is not easy to replenish. In addition, it is possible to prevent the finger of the replenisher from being pinched by the push plate 12a (12b) and the new passbook 20 of A type (new passbook 21 of B type), and the finger of the replenisher is pressed. By making the plate 12a (12b) less likely to get caught, injury to the refiller's finger can be prevented.

  The left side space and the right side space are formed to be large enough for the refiller's finger to be inserted when the refiller refills the A type new passbook 20 (B type new passbook 21). Since the space and the right-hand space have the same size, they are used when correcting the posture of the new passbook 20 of type A (new passbook 21 of type B) supplemented to the stacker SA (SB) be able to.

  In the case where the presser plate 12a (12b) expands the space with the wall surface 13a (13b) and the replenisher replenishes the stacker SA (stacker SB) with a new passbook 20 of type A (new passbook 21 of type B). In order to make it easy to pull out the pressing plate 12a (12b) toward the side opposite to the wall surface 13a (13b), the handle 12ad (12bd) having a cylindrical shape is a new passbook 20 (type A) of the pressing plate 12a (12b).
