Definitions

  • the invention relates to a document input module for inputting documents having at least one MICR section and for reading out information of the MICR section.
  • MICR Magnetic Ink Character Recognition
  • Such magnetic processing of documents with MICR sections requires a certain orientation of the documents, for example on an abutment edge. Furthermore, it is necessary that the document is entered in a certain position.
  • a basic idea of the invention is that the document input module is equipped with at least one further reading head. As a result, it is advantageously achieved that different formats can be read in the random entry position of entered documents.
  • the possible positional variance of the MICR sections is easily absorbed by covering a corresponding range of variance with one or more fixed read heads.
  • an arrangement of further read heads corresponds to different formats and input positions of entered documents.
  • the arrangement of the further read heads can be offset next to one another in a line transversely to a transport direction of entered documents or, particularly advantageously, also among one another. Both are possible, covering a large number of different document formats.
  • the arrangement of the read heads in staggered arrangement in different rows leads to a particularly advantageous reading, since the noise behavior of the read heads is minimized in this arrangement.
  • the relative arrangement of the read heads is therefore designed to ensure that the MICR section is always in a readable and secure position under an associated read head when transporting an input document into the document input module.
  • a pressure roller can also be assigned to each read head.
  • each read head is assigned a bias, which can consist of one or more permanent magnets or premagnetization heads, which can also be part of the read heads, for example.
  • a further invention also provides the subordinate subject matter of claim 8.
  • This claim provides a document input module for inputting documents having at least one MICR section and having at least one read head for reading the at least one MICR section, the document input module being suitable both for reading MICR sections. Sections formed on top as well as for reading MICR sections arranged on the bottom of input documents.
  • This independent invention which is also fundamentally suitable as a development of the subject matter of claim 1, also makes it possible to read out or evaluate checks with MICR sections when they are "upside down", that is to say with the MICR sections on the reading head the opposite side of the paper.
  • the reading can also be done by arranging other read heads, which lie opposite the first read heads on the other side of the paper.
  • FIG. 1 shows a schematic representation of a first exemplary embodiment of a document input module according to the invention in connection with different document formats
  • Fig. 2 is a perspective view of a second embodiment of the document input module according to the invention.
  • FIG. 1 shows a first exemplary embodiment of a document input module 2 according to the invention in connection with documents 9, 91, 92, 93 having different formats.
  • the documents 9, 91, 92, 93 are, for example, checks with applied MICR sections 10.
  • the MICR sections 10 have characters which consist of magnetizable ink and carry specifiable information.
  • the document input module 2 is equipped for processing the MICR sections 10 of the documents 9, 91, 92, 93 with read heads 3, 4, 5, 6, which read out the magnetically applied information of the MICR sections 10 in the manner of a magnetic tape reading head.
  • a document 9, 91, 92, 93 in a transport direction 7 in the document input module 2 enter, the MICR sections 10 are above, and transported in this so that the MICR section 10 during the transport of the document 9, 91 , 92, 93 passes under one of the read heads 3, 4, 5, 6 and the information of the MICR section is read out.
  • the system 8 is pulled through in Fig. 1 downwards to make it clear that all documents to be entered 9, 91, 92, 93 are to create this Appendix 8.
  • the system 8 runs parallel to the transport direction 7.
  • the MICR sections 10 are arranged parallel to the transport direction 7 on the documents 9, 91, 92, 93 in this example. They remain during the transport of the documents 9, 91, 92, 93 parallel to the transport direction 7 along a reading line 31, 41, 51, 61, which corresponds to a reading direction of a reading head 3, 4, 5, 6 respectively.
  • the first document 9 has an MICR section 10 which is located on the left and is read by the first read head 3. Now, it is possible that the first document 9 as the second document 91 has the MICR section 10 on the right side, which may be the case when the first document 9 is input rotated by 180 ° about the vertical axis shown in the drawing becomes. Then, the MICR section 10 lies on the read line 41 of the second read head 4.
  • a third document 92 has a longer format than the first and rotated second document 9, 91.
  • the further right MICR section 10 lies on the reading line 51 of the third reading head 5.
  • the MICR section of a fourth document 93 with an even longer format acts on the read line 61 with the fourth read head 6 for reading the MICR information together.
  • read heads 3, 4, 5, 6 are shown in an arrangement 1.
  • the reading heads 3, 4, 5, 6 are arranged in a line transversely to the transport direction 7 and placed with each other and each to the system 8 at a certain distance, which corresponds to the different document formats and input options.
  • the third and fourth documents 92, 93 may also be entered so that the MICR section 10 lies on the reading line 31 of the first reading head 3.
