Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a device for automatically turning over the printed pages of a bankbook, such as those used in banking.

Transaction data is printed on the print page of the above-mentioned passbook by the +III machine, but if this transaction data extends to the next page,
The passbook must be removed from the bookkeeping machine, page-changed by the staff, and then inserted again.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a passbook self-handling device that can reliably change the printed pages of a passbook by utilizing the paper quality of the passbook.

According to this invention, the entire turn-page side of the bankbook is curved in a convex shape and the roller that feeds the turn-page side toward the seam side releases the edge of the turn-page page, so that the turn-over page and the next page are released. By utilizing the restorability based on the rigidity of the paper, the pages can be reliably separated without bending or damaging the pages to be turned.

Moreover, the rollers allow the page to be turned over the separation plate, and after separating the page to be turned and the next page, the page can be turned smoothly without resistance by transferring the passbook.
Since the roller only needs to be rotated for the time it takes for the page to be turned to pass over the separation plate, the time for turning the page can be shortened.
