Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a ticket handling system device, for example, at boarding stations and alighting stations.

Conventionally, labor saving in station operations has been put into practical use through automated tickets and automatic ticket gates.

However, in order to achieve complete labor-saving, it will be impossible to make ticket gates unmanned unless the ticket system includes all transfer tickets.

The present invention was developed in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to avoid congestion before entering the bath by paying the fee at the time of exiting the bath instead of paying at the time of admission, and to provide a ticket that can smooth the flow of users. The purpose is to provide a handling system device.

The present invention will be explained below based on an embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 3.

In Fig. 1, 1 is an automatic ticket gate with a boarding station certificate issuing machine, 2 is an exit for boarding station certificates issued by the same device, 3 is a conventional commuter pass automatic ticket gate, and 4.4 ′
5 is a payment certificate collection device, 6 is a payment certificate insertion slot provided in the same device, and 7 is a commuter pass insertion and removal port, or by receiving the boarding station certificate, or This door is operated by the inserted payment certificate.

Note that reference numeral 8 denotes an opening/closing door provided in the vicinity of the commuter pass insertion slot 4 and takeout opening 4'.

Further, reference numeral 9 represents a payment certificate issuing device that issues a payment certificate after payment is made by inserting the boarding station certificate.

FIG. 2 shows a front view of the above-mentioned payment certificate issuing device, in which 10 is a coin input slot, 11 is an input coin display section that displays the amount of coins inserted, and 12 is the boarding station. 13 is a fare display section that calculates and displays the fare based on the inserted boarding station certificate; and 14 is a slot for taking out the payment certificate issued as a result of payment and change.

In addition, in FIG. 3 a1b, 15 is an example of a boarding station certificate with magnetic encoding on the back side, and 16 is an example of a payment certificate with the fare printed on the front side.

Next, the operation of the present invention based on the above configuration will be explained.

Conventionally, passengers have purchased tickets at the boarding station, but in the present invention, this is not necessary; instead, they first go to the ticket inspection device 1 with a boarding station certificate issuing machine and enter in the direction of arrow X.

Then, the ticket inspection device 1 detects the entrance of the passenger and issues one boarding station certificate ticket 15.

The boarding station certificate 15 has, for example, the installation station and issue date printed on the front side and a magnetic code recorded on the back side, as shown in FIG. 3a.

Then, when the passenger receives the boarding station certificate 15 from the exit 2, the opening/closing door 7 is opened, and the passenger directly goes to the platform and gets on the train.

Next, the passenger who gets off at the destination first goes to the payment certificate issuing device 9 installed at the position indicated by arrow Y and inserts the boarding station certificate 15 received at the boarding station into the insertion slot 12.

Then, the issuing device 9 issues the inserted boarding station certificate 15.
The fare is calculated using the magnetic code recorded on the back of the
Alternatively, it is directly read from memory and displayed on the fare display section 13.

Therefore, when the passenger inserts a coin corresponding to the displayed amount into the coin slot 10, the coin is displayed on the inserted coin display section 11, and the issuing device 9 displays the inserted amount on the fare display section 13.
When the amount reaches the same as or more than , the payment certificate 16 and change are automatically discharged to the exit 14.

Next, the passenger inserts the payment certificate 16 received from the exit 14 of the issuing device 9 into the insertion slot 6 of the payment certificate collection device 5 provided in the direction indicated by arrow Z.

Then, the ticket collection device 5 detects the insertion of the payment certificate 16 and opens the door, allowing the passenger to exit through the ticket gate in the direction of arrow Z.

As described above, the present invention installs an admission ticket issuing device at the entrance side in place of the conventional ticket vending machine, and issues a free admission ticket to customers for admission.

A payment certificate issuing device and a ticket collecting device are installed on the outlet side, and the payment certificate issuing device reads the information on the entrance certificate, settles the fee, and issues a payment certificate recording the payment. Then, these payment certificates are collected by a collection device.

Therefore, since the customer does not have to wait to purchase a ticket at the time of admission, it is possible to prevent the customer from missing the service or being delayed in receiving the service, such as by missing the train.

Further, according to the present invention, by paying the fee when exiting the bath instead of paying when entering the bath, it is possible to alleviate congestion before entering the bath and to smooth the flow of customers.

Particularly, when a specific event is held, the adoption of the present invention has excellent effects such as being able to alleviate the conventional large crowding at the entrance.
