KR-102961413-B1 - A PASSBOOK PRINTER THAT ENHANCES PASSBOOK SHEET FEEDING PERFORMANCE THROUGH MULTI PAGE TURNING DETECTION AND PAGE PRESSURE COMPENSATION

Abstract

The present invention relates to a passbook printer that improves passbook page turning performance through multi-page turning detection and page pressure correction of the passbook, comprising: a plurality of transfer roller sections for introducing and extracting an unfolded passbook; a base section having a curved surface formed thereon to bend the pages of the passbook introduced through the transfer roller sections; a turning roller section located in the middle section of the plurality of transfer roller sections, including a roller dedicated to turning the pages of the passbook, and rotated by the rotational force of a connected drive motor to turn the pages of the passbook; an irradiation section disposed at a front-rear symmetrical position of the turning roller section to irradiate laser light toward the turning pages of the passbook; a light receiving section receiving the intensity of the laser light transmitted through the turning pages of the passbook; and a plurality of gate sections configured to be openable and closeable between the transfer roller section and the turning roller section. With technical features including the use of a laser sensor to measure the transmittance of the passbook pages, it is possible to accurately detect the number of pages being turned. In the event of a failure in the passbook page turning operation, the support assembly unit automatically adjusts the height to correct the pressure applied to the passbook by the turning roller during the page turning operation, and the corrected pressure is configured to be applied consistently to the passbook, thereby improving the passbook page turning performance and fundamentally preventing malfunctions, which not only provides convenience in operation but also has the effect of improving reliability in operation.

1. Multiple transfer roller sections for moving unfolded passbooks in and out of the interior; A base part having a curved surface formed to bend the inner paper of the passbook fed through the above-mentioned transfer roller part; A turning roller section located in the middle section of a plurality of the above-mentioned transfer roller sections, including a roller dedicated to turning the inner pages of the passbook, and rotated by the rotational force of a connected drive motor to turn the inner pages of the passbook; An irradiation unit positioned at a front-rear symmetrical position to the above-mentioned turning roller unit and irradiating laser light toward the turning pages of the above-mentioned passbook; A light receiving unit that receives the intensity of laser light transmitted through the turning pages of the above-mentioned passbook; and It comprises a plurality of gate sections configured to be openable and closeable between the transfer roller section and the passing roller section; When multiple flip pages of the passbook are detected through the transmittance of the laser light received by the light receiving unit, it is notified by outputting sound or video. When multiple pages of the passbook are detected through the transmittance of the laser light received by the light receiving unit, the user attempts to turn the pages of the passbook in the opposite direction or ejects the passbook to attempt to turn them. The transmittance of the inner pages of the passbook passed by the above-mentioned turning roller is compared with a set threshold value to determine whether it is a single page or multiple page turn, and It further includes a support assembly located at the lower part of the turning roller portion adjacent to the base portion and contacting the passbook together with the turning roller portion through a lifting operation by a lifting means; A passbook printer with improved passbook page turning performance through multi-page turning detection and page pressure correction of a passbook, characterized in that when the passbook page turning operation fails, the support assembly part corrects the pressure applied to the passbook by the turning roller part during the passbook page turning operation through an automatic height adjustment operation, and the corrected pressure is applied consistently to the passbook.

Description

A passbook printer that enhances passbook sheet feeding performance through multi-page turning detection and page pressure compensation. The present invention relates to a passbook printer that improves passbook page turning performance through multi-page turning detection and page pressure correction. More specifically, it utilizes a laser sensor to measure the transmittance of the page turning insert to accurately detect the number of pages being turned. In the event of a failure in the page turning operation, the support assembly automatically adjusts the height to correct the pressure applied to the passbook by the turning roller during the page turning operation. The corrected pressure is configured to be applied consistently to the passbook, thereby improving page turning performance and fundamentally preventing malfunctions, which not only provides operational convenience but also enhances operational reliability. Generally, many commercial banks are installing and operating various types of automated financial devices, such as automated deposit and withdrawal machines and passbook updaters, thereby improving operational efficiency as well as providing convenience to users. As banking functions diversify, banking operations are no longer conducted solely within the bank but are instead taking place through various channels, and consequently, the number of transaction details recorded in bank accounts is also increasing. Bank branch terminals, automated teller machines (ATMs), passbook readers, and passbook issuers are equipped with a page-turning mechanism inside. However, conventional page-turning mechanisms make it more difficult to turn individual pages reliably because the rigidity and thickness of the pages vary from passbook to passbook. Situations where pages cannot be turned include, for example, when pages cannot be turned or pages are turned too far (turning two pages at a time, etc.). These issues can be resolved by retrying, but in the case of incomplete flipping, as shown in the schematic diagram of the passbook and flipping roller in the case of flipping two sheets at a time, there is a problem where, in the worst case, even if the sheets are flipped, they get caught in the return path and folded during return.
