Abstract

PURPOSE:To position a voucher quickly and appropriately by installing on a reading stand a means for positioning the voucher so that its seal impression of the voucher can expose through the window hole of a retaining plate. CONSTITUTION:The voucher 21 is placed on the reading stand 11, and the window hole 13 of the retaining plate 12 is equalized to the seal impression of the voucher 21, thereby setting the position of the voucher 21. Then guide members 15 and 16 are positioned by matching to the edge part of the voucher 21 through the operations of knobs 17 and 18, and the seal impression is read out by an image pickup device. When the seal impression on the voucher of the same form is continuously read, the guide members 15 and 16 are held in said state, and the edge part of the voucher abuts on the guide members 15 and 16, thereby reading continuously the voucher.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to an image reading device that reads a seal imprinted on a slip or the like.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, in financial institutions such as banks, a huge number of seal registration slips bearing contract seals are generally filed in the form of paper slips. In order to compare the seal imprint on the slip presented by the customer with the registered seal imprint, search and extract the relevant seal from the seal registration form, and compare the registered seal imprint with the verified seal imprint using an image reading device. are doing.

By the way, the predetermined paper r on which the registered seal impression is affixed usually has various border lines, guides, etc. printed thereon, and also the name and address of the registrant.

Therefore, it is common for these unnecessary images to exist around the affixed seal imprint. In order to image such a registered seal stamp original and obtain good seal impression data, it is necessary to remove unnecessary image information existing around the seal impression. Otherwise, it will interfere with the seal verification process. Therefore, conventionally,
When taking an image of a slip with a seal stamped on it, techniques are used such as covering the slip with masking paper or the like with a window hole that exposes only the stamped portion of the slip.

As such an image reading device, there is a device shown in FIG. On the reading stand 1 on which the slip is placed, a cover pressing plate 3 is provided via a hinge on the side wall 2 of the main body. A rectangular window hole 4 is formed in this slip valve plate 3. In this image reading device, a slip is placed on a reading table 1, and the slip is fixed with a slip holding plate 3 so that the stamp of the slip is exposed through a window hole 4. In this state, the seal impression is read by an imaging device provided at the top.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, in this type of image reading device, the slip is placed on the reading stand 1, and the slip is positioned while comparing the window hole of the slip holding plate and the seal imprint on the slip. was adjusting. For this reason, it was necessary to pay sufficient attention to the position adjustment of the slip, which was time-consuming, and the positioning was likely to be inappropriate.

In particular, even when reading a large number of seal impressions of the same format, it is necessary to align each slip one by one, which is extremely troublesome.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides an image reading device that is provided with a positioning means that can easily set the position of the slip, and that can quickly and appropriately position the slip using this positioning means. purpose.

(Means for Solving the Problems) According to the present invention, the reading stand is provided with means for positioning the slip so that the seal imprint on the slip is exposed through the window hole of the holding plate.

(Operation) The slip positioning means is set in advance at a predetermined position depending on the form or shape of the slip. The slip is placed on the reading table in contact with this positioning means. Next, the presser plate is lowered and the seal impression exposed in the window hole of the presser plate is read.

(Embodiment) FIG. 1 shows an image reading device according to an embodiment of the present invention. This image reading device includes a reading stand 11 and a slip holding plate 12 which is attached to the main body side wall 14 via a hinge, has a sponge on the lower surface, and has a window hole 13 formed in the center.
and a pair of id members 15 and 16 provided on the reading stand 11 and constituting slip positioning means.

The guide member 15 has an L-shape, and the reading table 110
It comes into contact with the corner of one side edge. A magnet 19 is provided at the abutting portion of the guide member 15, and a magnetic plate 20 is fixed to the side edge of the reading platform 11. Further, the guide member 16 is similarly L-shaped and comes into contact with a corner of the front edge of the reading table 11. A magnet 19 is provided at the abutting portion of the side member 16, and a magnetic plate 20 is fixed to the front edge of the mounting table 11. These guide members 15, 16, magnet 19, and magnetic plate 20 constitute a slip positioning means.

In this image reading device, first, the slip 21 is placed on the reading stand 11, and the window hole 13 of the pressing plate 12 and the seal imprint on the slip 21 are matched to set the position of the slip 21. Next, there are knobs 17., each provided with a guide member 15.16.
The seal is positioned according to the edge of the slip 21 by the operation 18, and the seal imprint is read by an imaging device (not shown). When the seal impression of a slip of the same style is to be read continuously, the guide member 15.16 is held in this state and the edge of the slip is brought into contact with the guide member 15.16, so that the slip can be read continuously. Implemented.

Note that a sponge is provided on the lower surface of the holding plate 12, and this sponge allows the slip 21 to be attached to the ID member 15.1.
Even if there is a difference in level on the 6th floor, the slip can be held securely.

In addition, as a method of fixing the guide members 15 and 16, a configuration in which a magnet and a magnetic plate are provided and fixation is performed using the attraction force of these has been explained, but the method is not necessarily limited to this method, and screws can be tightened using a knob. The guide member may be fixed by tightening or the like. Furthermore, a scale may be provided on the reading stand or a magnetic plate, and the guide member may be adjusted according to the dimensions for each type of slip.

(Effects of the Invention) According to the present invention, the reading stand is provided with a slip positioning means, and the positioning means can quickly and appropriately position the slip, so that a large number of seal impressions of the same style of slip can be printed in succession. Can be read.
