Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung zur Herstellung einer Berechtigungskarte mit einem Bild des Karteninhabers sowie mit alphanumerischen Zeichen.The invention relates to a device for H creation of an authorization card with a picture of the card holder as well as alphanumeric characters.

Persönliche, nicht übertragbare Berechtigungskarten, die mit dem Bild des Karteninhabers versehen sind, werden insbesondere zur Kontrolle des Zugangs zu geschlossenen Personen-Transporteinrichtungen und Freizeitanlagen verwendet. Handelt es sich dabei um Wintersportanlagen werden sie entsprechend ihrer Gültigkeitsdauer z.B. als Tages-oder Wochenskipässe oder als Saison-Karten bezeichnet.Personal, non-transferable authorization cards with the image of the card holder are used in particular to control access to closed passenger transport facilities and leisure facilities. If these are winter sports facilities, they are e.g. referred to as daily or weekly ski passes or as season tickets.

Um einen Skipaß mit dem Bild des Karteninhabers zu versehen, wurde bisher so vorgegangen, daß mit einer Hochleistungs-Sofortbildkamera eine Aufnahme von dem Karteninhaber gemacht und das nach einer Entwicklungszeit von ca. einer Minute entwickelte Foto ausgestanzt und in die Karte geklebt wurde. Der Arbeits- und Zeitaufwand zur Herstellung eines solchen Skipasses ist also erheblich. Auch ist die Karte, die eine Klebefolie und eine Deckfolie zum Schutz des Fotos aufweist, relativ teuer. Dabei ist zu bedenken, daß allein in den Alpen jedes Jahr mehrere Millionen solcher Skipässe ausgegeben werden.In order to provide a ski pass with the picture of the cardholder, the previous procedure was to take a picture of the cardholder with a high-performance instant camera and the photo developed after a development time of about one minute was punched out and stuck into the card. The work and time required to produce such a ski pass is therefore considerable. The card, which has an adhesive film and a cover film to protect the photo, is also relatively expensive. It should be borne in mind that several million such ski passes are issued every year in the Alps alone.

Die alphanumerischen Zeichen, die auf einen Skipaß aufgebracht werden, stellen beispielsweise weitere Angaben über den Karteninhaber (Erwachsener, Kind, Skilehrer usw.), eine Nummer zur Identifizierung der Karte, deren Preis, Beginn und Dauer von deren Gültigkeit sowie Angaben über die Kasse, an der die Karte gekauft worden ist, dar.The alphanumeric characters that are applied to a ski pass, for example, provide further information about the cardholder (adult, child, ski instructor, etc.), a number to identify the card, its price, start and duration of its validity and information about the cash register, where the card was bought.

Diese Angaben oder Zeichen wurden bisher mittels einer Druckvorrichtung auf die Karte gedruckt, bei der die Drucktypen auf mehreren elektromechanisch in die gewünschte Druckstellung drehbaren Rädern befestigt sind.This information or characters have so far been printed on the card by means of a printing device, in which the printing types are fastened on several wheels which can be rotated electromechanically into the desired printing position.

Einige der Zeichen, z.B. das Verfallsdatum der Karte sollen zur besseren Sichtbarkeit möglichst groß sein. Dies und die aus praktischen Gründen begrenzte Größe und Anzahl der Typenräder erlauben jedoch nur einen relativ geringen Zeichenvorrat der Druckvorrichtung, z.B. sechs Räder mit je zwölf Typen. Wenn Änderungen der Typen z.B. aus sprachlichen Gründen erforderlich oder auch nur erwünscht sind, sind daher entsprechende Änderungen an der Druckvorrichtung unvermeidlich.Some of the characters, such as the expiry date of the card, should be as large as possible for better visibility. This and that for practical reasons, the limited size and number of type wheels only allow a relatively small number of characters in the printing device, for example six wheels with twelve types each. If changes of the types are necessary or even only desired for language reasons, for example, corresponding changes to the printing device are inevitable.

Aus der deutschen Offenlegungsschrift 27 39 857 ist ein Thermodruckkopf bekannt, der von Eingangssignalen gespeist werden kann, die analog zu den Videosignalen einer Videokamera sind.A thermal print head is known from German Offenlegungsschrift 27 39 857, which can be fed by input signals which are analogous to the video signals of a video camera.

Der Erfindung, wie sie in den Ansprüchen gekennzeichnet ist, liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Berechtigungskarte zeit- und kostensparend mit einem Bild des Karteninhabers zu versehen, desgleichen mit gegebenenfalls großen alphanumerischen Zeichen aus einem großen Zeichenvorrat, ohne an der Druckvorrichtung Änderungen vornehmen zu müssen.The invention, as characterized in the claims, is based on the task of providing an authorization card with a picture of the cardholder in a time-saving and cost-saving manner, and likewise with large alphanumeric characters from a large character stock, if necessary, without having to make changes to the printing device.

Nachstehend ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel der erfindungsgemässen Vorrichtung anhand der beigefügten Zeichnung näher erläutert, deren einzige Figur schematisch einen Kassenraum mit Videokamera, ein Blockdiagramm der weiteren Grundeinheiten der Vorrichtung sowie schematisch das Bedrucken eines Skipasses wiedergibt.An exemplary embodiment of the device according to the invention is explained in more detail below with the aid of the attached drawing, the single figure of which schematically represents a cash desk with a video camera, a block diagram of the further basic units of the device and schematically the printing of a ski pass.

In dem Kassenraum 1 beispielsweise einer Gondelbahn einer Wintersportanlage ist eine Videokamera 2 vorgesehen, die durch eine durchsichtige Scheibe 3 auf eine Rückwand 4 gerichtet ist, die in einem solchen Abstand von der Scheibe 3 angeordnet ist, daß eine Person dazwischen bequem hindurchgehen kann.In the checkout room 1, for example a gondola lift of a winter sports facility, a video camera 2 is provided, which is directed through a transparent pane 3 onto a rear wall 4, which is arranged at such a distance from the pane 3 that a person can comfortably walk through it.

Die Wand 4 bildet einen Hintergrund gleichbleibender Helligkeit für die Videoaufnahmen. Eine Beleuchtungseinrichtung 5 sorgt für ausreichende Beleuchtungsverhältnisse. Die Videokamera 2 kann eine herkömmliche Röhren- oder Halbleiterkamera sein.The wall 4 forms a background of constant brightness for the video recordings. A lighting device 5 ensures sufficient lighting conditions. The video camera 2 can be a conventional tube or semiconductor camera.

Die Ausgangssignale der Videokamera 2 werden einer Einrichtung 6 zugeführt, die den Bildinhalt, d.h. die einzelnen Bildpunkte der Videokamera 2 digitalisiert, z.B. in zwölf Grautönen . Der so digitalisierte Bildinhalt wird einer elektronischen Steuereinrichtung 7 zugeführt.The output signals of the video camera 2 are fed to a device 6 which converts the image content, i.e. the individual pixels of the video camera 2 are digitized, e.g. in twelve shades of gray. The image content digitized in this way is fed to an electronic control device 7.

An die Steuereinrichtung 7 ist ferner ein alphanumerischer Zeichenwähler 8 angeschlossen, der entsprechend der Tastatur einer Schreibmaschine ausgebildet sein kann.An alphanumeric character selector 8 is also connected to the control device 7 and can be designed in accordance with the keyboard of a typewriter.

Die elektronische Steuereinrichtung 7 steuert einen Thermodruckkopf 9, der in einem (nicht dargestellten) Kartenausgabegerät angeordnet ist und entsprechend der deutschen Offenlegungsschrift 27 39 857 aufgebaut sein kann.The electronic control device 7 controls a thermal print head 9, which is arranged in a card dispenser (not shown) and can be constructed in accordance with German laid-open specification 27 39 857.

Der Thermodruckkopf 9 zeichnet, gesteuert von der Steuereinrichtung 7, das von der Videokamera 2 aufgenommene Bild der Person zwischen der Scheibe 3 und der Rückwand 4 sowie die durch den Zeichenwähler bzw. die Tastatur 8 eingegebenen Daten auf die thermosensitive Schicht des Kartenrohlings 10 auf, und zwar das Bild 11 auf den Abschnitt A und die alphanumerischen Daten 12 , wie Kartennummer, Kaufdatum der Karte, Kasse, an der die Karte gekauft worden ist, weitere Angaben über die Person (z.B. Erwachsener) und Gültigkeitsdauer der Karte, auf den Abschnitt B, wie dem thermobedruckten SkipaB 13 zu entnehmen. Die thermosensitive Schicht der Karte kann mit einer dünnen Auflage aus einem durchsichtigen Kunststoff versehen sein.The thermal print head 9, controlled by the control device 7, records the image of the person recorded by the video camera 2 between the pane 3 and the rear wall 4 and the data entered by the character selector or the keyboard 8 onto the thermosensitive layer of the card blank 10, and 11 on section A and the alphanumeric data 12, such as card number, date of purchase of the card, cash desk at which the card was bought, further information about the person (eg adult) and period of validity of the card, on section B, as can be seen in the thermal-printed SkipaB 13. The thermosensitive layer of the card can be provided with a thin layer made of a transparent plastic.

Der Zeichenwähler bzw. die Tastatur 8 kann außerdem mit einer (nicht dargestellten) Zentralrechenanlage verbunden sein, die die alphanumerischen Daten registriert bzw. verarbeitet.The character selector or the keyboard 8 can also be connected to a central computer (not shown) which registers or processes the alphanumeric data.

Statt eines Thermodruckkopfs und einer Karte mit thermosensitivem Papier kann auch ein Elektrosensitiv-Druckkopf bzw. eine Karte mit elektrosensitivem Papier vorgesehen werden.Instead of a thermal print head and a card with thermosensitive paper, an electrosensitive print head or a card with electrosensitive paper can also be provided.
