The self-service device can also be a self-service ticket vending machine. The printing device 30 can print train tickets, which are delivered from the ticket outlet 12. The self-service device can also be a locker used in supermarkets, shopping malls, and other places. After the user deposits the item, the printing device 30 prints a deposit receipt, which is delivered from the ticket outlet 12. The self-service device can also be other devices that require ticket output, which will not be detailed here.

[0058] Alternatively, see Figure 1 The sheet media processing device includes a paper roll support device 20, a printing device 30, and a paper cutting device 40. The paper roll support device 20 is used to support the paper roll; the printing device 30 includes a print head 301 and a rubber roller 302 that tangentially cooperate with each other. The print head 301 is used to print on the paper drawn from the paper roll, and the rubber roller 302 is used to drive the paper between the print head 301 and the rubber roller 302 to move. The paper cutting device 40 is used to cut the printed paper into individual tickets 50. The individual tickets 50 are output from the ticket outlet 12 of the ticket dispensing device 10.

[0059] Optionally, the self-service device also includes a cabinet (not shown in the drawings), and the sheet media processing device and the ticket issuing device 10 are both installed inside the cabinet. The shell 1 of the ticket issuing device 10 is embedded in the cabinet or integrally formed with the cabinet, so that the ticket outlet 12 is connected to the outside world.

[0060] Please refer to Figures 2 to 5 The ticket dispensing device 10 includes a housing 1 and a ticket clamping roller assembly 2. The housing 1 includes a front panel 11 and a ticket dispensing port 12. The front panel 11 includes a base 111 and a recessed portion 112 arranged side by side along a first direction. The ticket dispensing port 12 is used to output the ticket paper 50, and the ticket dispensing port 12 passes through the base 111 and the recessed portion 112 along the front-to-back direction. The recessed portion 112 is recessed rearward relative to the base 111, and the recessed portion 112 forms a ticket taking space 113 for holding the ticket paper 50. The ticket clamping roller assembly 2 is located at the rear side of the base 111. The ticket clamping roller assembly 2 and the recessed portion 112 are arranged along the first direction (such as Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 The ticket roller group 2 is used to clamp the ticket paper 50 output from the ticket outlet 12, and the first direction and the front-to-back direction (such as Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5In the ticket dispensing device 10 provided in this embodiment, the ticket clamping roller assembly 2 and the recessed portion 112 are arranged side by side along a first direction. When a ticket 50 is conveyed from the back to the front to the ticket dispensing outlet 12, a portion of the ticket 50 is exposed to the outside of the ticket dispensing device 10 by the recessed portion 112 along the first direction, while another portion of the ticket 50 remains inside the ticket dispensing device 10 and is clamped by the ticket clamping roller assembly 2. Therefore, regardless of the size of the ticket 50, the ticket 50 clamped by the ticket clamping roller assembly 2 can remain stably within the ticket dispensing outlet 12 along the direction in which the ticket 50 is discharged from the ticket dispensing outlet 12 (i.e., the direction in which the ticket 50 is discharged), preventing the ticket 50 from freely falling. Therefore, even if the ticket 50 is small (e.g., a 25 mm postage stamp), the user can still grasp and remove the ticket 50 within the ticket removal space 113 formed by the recessed portion 112, facilitating operation and improving user experience.

[0061] Alternatively, see Figure 8 and Figure 9 Along the front-to-back direction, the maximum recessed depth of the recessed portion 112 relative to the base 111 is L, L≥25mm. This arrangement allows the user to take a ticket, and the size of the ticket paper 50 in the ticket taking space 113 that can be held by the user is not less than 25mm, meeting the requirements of barrier-free design regulations.

[0062] Optionally, the distance between the position where the ticket roller assembly 2 holds the ticket 50 and the ticket outlet 12 in the front-to-back direction is less than 25 mm. With this arrangement, even if the ticket 50 is only 25 mm in the ticket outlet direction, the ticket roller assembly 2 can still hold the ticket 50 as it is conveyed from back to front to the ticket outlet 12, allowing it to remain stably in the ticket outlet 12 and prevent it from falling freely, making it easier for users to retrieve tickets.

[0063] Alternatively, see Figure 2 、 Figures 4 to 7 The housing 1 also includes a second direction (such as Figure 2 The first wall 114 and the second wall 115 are spaced apart from each other (in the direction indicated by the arrow ef in the middle). The two ends of the recessed portion 112 along the second direction are connected to the first wall 114 and the second wall 115 respectively. The second direction, the first direction, and the front-to-back direction are perpendicular to each other. The ticket dispensing device 10 also includes a photoelectric sensor 4 for detecting whether a ticket 50 is present at the ticket outlet 12. The photoelectric sensor 4 is mounted on the first wall 114 and / or the second wall 115. With this arrangement, the photoelectric sensor 4 can detect whether the ticket 50 has been conveyed to the ticket outlet 12. When the ticket 50 is at the ticket outlet 12, the conveyance of the ticket 50 is promptly stopped to ensure that the ticket 50 accurately stops at the ticket outlet 12. At the same time, the photoelectric sensor 4 can also detect whether the ticket 50 at the ticket outlet 12 has been removed by the user.

[0064] Alternatively, see Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, the first direction is the left-right direction, and the second direction is the up-down direction. In other embodiments, the first direction and the second direction can also be set according to actual needs, for example, the first direction is the up-down direction, and the second direction is the left-right direction.

[0065] Alternatively, see Figures 4 to 7 Along the second direction, the ticket outlet 12 is located between the first wall 114 and the second wall 115, and is spaced apart from both the first wall 114 and the second wall 115. When two fingers are inserted into the ticket removal space 113, they can grasp the ticket 50 by the upper and lower sides, respectively. Preferably, the distance between the ticket outlet 12 and the first wall 114 is equal to the distance between the ticket outlet 12 and the second wall 115.

[0066] Optionally, in this embodiment, the photoelectric sensor 4 is a transmission sensor, and the photoelectric sensor 4 includes a first light emitter 41 and a first receiver 42. One of the first light emitter 41 and the first receiver 42 is installed on the first wall 114, and the other of the first light emitter 41 and the first receiver 42 is installed on the second wall 115. The first wall 114 and the second wall 115 are both provided with a light-transmitting hole 122 connected to the ticket-taking space 113, and the light emitted by the first light emitter 41 can be received by the first receiver 42 after passing through the light-transmitting hole 122 on the first wall 114, the ticket-taking space 113 and the light-transmitting hole 122 on the second wall 115. When there is a ticket 50 at the ticket outlet 12, the part of the ticket 50 located in the ticket collection space 113 can block the propagation of light, so that the first receiver 42 cannot receive the light emitted by the first light emitter 41, and the photoelectric sensor 4 outputs a first signal; when there is no ticket 50 at the ticket outlet 12, the first receiver 42 can receive the light emitted by the first light emitter 41, and the photoelectric sensor 4 outputs a second signal, so that it can be determined whether there is a ticket 50 at the ticket outlet 12 based on the signal output by the photoelectric sensor 4.

[0067] As one of the alternative solutions, the photoelectric sensor 4 is a reflective sensor, which includes a second light emitter and a second receiver. The second light emitter and the second receiver are both installed on one of the first wall 114 and the second wall 115. When there is no ticket paper 50 at the ticket outlet 12, the light emitted by the second light emitter shines on the part of the ticket paper 50 located in the ticket collection space 113 and then reflects to the second receiver, and the photoelectric sensor 4 outputs a first signal; when there is no ticket paper 50 at the ticket outlet 12, the light emitted by the second light emitter shines on the other of the first wall 114 and the second wall 115 and then reflects to the second receiver, and the photoelectric sensor 4 outputs a second signal. Similarly, it is possible to determine whether there is a ticket paper 50 at the ticket outlet 12 based on the signal output by the photoelectric sensor 4.

[0068] Optionally, the base portion 111 and the recessed portion 112 of the front panel 11 are connected to each other and formed as one piece. Preferably, the front panel 11 is injection molded from a plastic material.

[0069] Alternatively, see Figures 4 to 7 The first wall 114 and the second wall 115 are vertically opposed, with their front edges flush with the front surface of the base 111. The ticket removal space 113 is located between the front side of the recessed portion 112, the first wall 114, and the second wall 115. This arrangement makes the ticket removal space 113 enclosed on three sides, enhancing ticket dispensing security.

[0070] Alternatively, see Figure 5 The first wall 114 , the second wall 115 , and the rear surface of the base 111 located at the rear side of the recessed portion 112 together form a storage space for the ticket clamping roller set 2 .

[0071] Alternatively, see Figure 2 、 Figures 4 to 9 The front panel 11 includes two bases 111. Along a first direction, a recessed portion 112 is located between the two bases 111. The ticket outlet 12 passes through both the recessed portion 112 and the two bases 111. The ticket outlet 10 includes two ticket clamping roller assemblies 2. The two ticket clamping roller assemblies 2 are located on the rear sides of the two bases 111 in a one-to-one correspondence. Both ticket clamping roller assemblies 2 are arranged side by side with the recessed portions 112 along the first direction. The two ticket clamping roller assemblies 2 are respectively used to clamp the two ends of the ticket 50 output from the ticket outlet 12 along the first direction. With this arrangement, when the ticket 50 is at the ticket withdrawal port, the two ticket clamping roller assemblies 2 respectively clamp the two ends of the ticket 50, making the state of the ticket 50 more stable while waiting for the user to remove it. When the ticket 50 is removed, pinching the middle of the ticket 50 balances the force on the ticket 50, allowing the ticket 50 to be more smoothly removed from the ticket clamping roller assemblies 2.

[0072] Alternatively, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The ticket dispensing device 10 further includes a frame 3, the ticket clamping roller set 2 is supported by the frame 3, and the housing 1 is connected to the frame 3. Preferably, the frame 3 includes a first bracket 31 and a second bracket 32 ​​spaced apart along the first direction, the two ticket clamping roller sets 2 are supported by the first bracket 31 and the second bracket 32, respectively, and the housing 1 is connected to the first bracket 31 and the second bracket 32, respectively.

[0073] Optionally, the cross section of the recessed portion 112 is arc-shaped, U-shaped, V-shaped, hemispherical, etc.

Along the first direction, the first flat plate 116 and the second flat plate 117 are respectively located on both sides of the arc-shaped plate 121 and connected to the arc-shaped plate 121. This arrangement can form a recessed portion 112 with an arc-shaped cross-section.

[0075] As an alternative, please refer to Figure 9 The two bases 111 are respectively a first flat plate 116 and a second flat plate 117. The recessed portion 112 includes a third flat plate 118, a fourth flat plate 119, and a fifth flat plate 120, which are connected in sequence at an angle. The first flat plate 116 is connected to the third flat plate 118, and the second flat plate 117 is connected to the fifth flat plate 120. This arrangement forms a recessed portion 112 with a U-shaped cross-section. Preferably, the third flat plate 118, the fourth flat plate 119, and the fifth flat plate 120 are connected in sequence at a 90-degree angle.

[0076] As an alternative, the two bases 111 are respectively composed of a first flat plate 116 and a second flat plate 117, and the recessed portion 112 includes a sixth flat plate and a seventh flat plate connected at an angle, with the first flat plate 116 connected to the sixth flat plate and the second flat plate 117 connected to the seventh flat plate.

[0077] As an alternative, the two bases 111 are respectively a first flat plate 116 and a second flat plate 117, and the recessed portion 112 comprises a hemispherical plate. Along a first direction, the first flat plate 116 and the second flat plate 117 are located on either side of the hemispherical plate and connected to the hemispherical plate. This arrangement forms a recessed portion 112 having a semicircular cross-section.

[0078] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the base 111 is not limited to a flat plate shape, and may also be configured as a forward-convex arc plate as required.

[0079] Alternatively, see Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 10 The ticket clamping roller group 2 includes a first roller 21 and a second roller 22 that are tangentially matched. The axes of the first roller 21 and the second roller 22 extend along the first direction, and the first roller 21 and the second roller 22 can rotate around their own axes. The tangent line between the first roller 21 and the second roller 22 (such as Figure 10The ticket 50 is shown as a center line S and passes through the ticket removal space 113. This arrangement ensures that when the ticket 50 is ejected from the ticket outlet 12, when a portion of the leading edge of the ticket 50 enters the ticket removal space 113 in the left-right direction, a portion of the trailing edge of the ticket 50 still does not cross the tangent line between the first roller 21 and the second roller 22. In other words, the ticket 50 is still partially clamped between the first roller 21 and the second roller 22. When the user takes the ticket, the ticket 50 drives the first roller 21 and the second roller 22 to rotate about their respective axes, allowing the ticket 50 to be smoothly removed. In other embodiments, the ticket clamping roller assembly 2 includes a pressure plate and a pressure roller that cooperate with each other in the second direction. One of the pressure plate and the pressure roller elastically presses against the other of the pressure plate and the pressure roller. The pressure roller and the pressure plate clamp the ticket 50, and the pressure roller can rotate about its own axis to eject the ticket 50.

[0080] Alternatively, see Figures 1 to 3 The ticket dispensing device 10 further includes a motor 61 and a conveying mechanism 5, which includes a drive shaft 51, rollers 52, and a belt 53. The drive shaft 51 is located behind the first roller 21 and is spaced apart from and parallel to the first roller 21. The roller 52 is fixedly mounted on the drive shaft 51. The motor 61 is in transmission connection with the drive shaft 51 and is used to drive the drive shaft 51 to rotate. The belt 53 is respectively mounted on the first roller 21 and the roller 52, and is used to support the ticket paper 50 and convey the ticket paper 50 to the ticket dispensing port 12. With this arrangement, the motor 61 drives the drive shaft 51 to rotate, and the roller 52 on the drive shaft 51 drives the belt 53 to move. The ticket paper 50 on the belt 53 is transported from back to front to the ticket outlet 12 and clamped between the first roller 21 and the second roller 22. This allows the ticket paper 50 to be transported to the ticket outlet 12 from a distance. During the transport process, the ticket paper 50 is continuously supported by the belt 53, ensuring that the ticket paper 50 is reliably and smoothly delivered to the ticket outlet 12. Preferably, the first roller 21 includes a core shaft 211 and a pulley 212. The pulley 212 is mounted on the core shaft 211, and the belt 53 is mounted on the pulley 212. Further preferably, the ticket dispensing device 10 also includes a transmission assembly 62 and a transmission pulley 63 fixedly mounted on the drive shaft 51. The output shaft of the motor 61 is connected to the transmission pulley 63 through the transmission assembly 62. The transmission assembly 62 can be a gear set.

[0081] Optionally, when a user takes a ticket, the first roller 21 rotates under the drive of the motor 61, and the first roller 21 drives the ticket paper 50 to be output, so that the user can easily take the ticket paper 50 away.

[0082] Alternatively, please continue to refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The belt 53 includes a conveying section located above and between the first roller 21 and the drive shaft 51. The ticket dispensing device 10 also includes an upper channel plate 7, located above and opposite the conveying section. The upper channel plate 7 and the conveying section are used to clamp the ticket paper 50. This arrangement allows the upper channel plate 7 and the conveying section to jointly clamp the ticket paper 50 as the conveying section drives the ticket paper 50 toward the ticket outlet 12, ensuring that the ticket paper 50 remains stable during movement and preventing paper jams.

[0083] Alternatively, see Figure 3 The lower surface of the upper channel plate 7 is provided with a plurality of strip-shaped protrusions 71, which extend in the front-to-back direction. The plurality of strip-shaped protrusions 71 are arranged in parallel and spaced apart along the first direction. When no ticket paper 50 is conveyed between the upper channel plate 7 and the conveying section, the upper surface of the belt 53 elastically presses on the lower surface of the upper channel plate 7; when a ticket paper 50 is conveyed between the upper channel plate 7 and the conveying section, the belt 53 presses the ticket paper 50 against the plurality of strip-shaped protrusions 71 to reduce the resistance to the movement of the ticket paper 50.

[0084] Alternatively, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The conveying mechanism 5 further includes a pressure wheel 54 provided on the upper channel plate 7, which presses on the roller 52. The pressure wheel 54 and the roller 52 cooperate to allow the ticket paper 50 to stably enter the space between the upper channel plate 7 and the conveying section from the outside of the ticket dispensing device 10.

[0085] Alternatively, see Figure 3 The ticket dispensing device 10 also includes a lower channel plate 8. The lower channel plate 8 is located between the drive shaft 51 and the first roller 21 in the front-to-back direction, with the upper surface of the conveying section higher than the upper surface of the lower channel plate 8. The upper channel plate 7 is mounted on the core shaft (not shown) of the second roller 22. The upper channel plate 7 can rotate about the core shaft of the second roller 22 to have an open position and a closed position. When the upper channel plate 7 is in the closed position, the upper channel plate 7 and the lower channel plate 8 are spaced relative to each other. When the upper channel plate 7 is in the open position, the upper channel plate 7 and the lower channel plate 8 are arranged at an angle. This arrangement allows the lower channel plate 8 to block the gap to the side of the belt 53, preventing the ticket paper 50 from getting stuck on the side of the belt 53. Furthermore, the upper channel plate 7 can be rotatably mounted on the core shaft of the second roller 22, making the structure compact and facilitating maintenance of the ticket dispensing device 10.

[0086] Alternatively, see Figure 3 The lower channel plate 8 is located between the first bracket 31 and the second bracket 32, and the lower channel plate 8 is supported by the first bracket 31 and the second bracket 32; when the upper channel plate 7 is in the closed position, the upper channel plate 7 is located between the first bracket 31 and the second bracket 32, which can enhance the structural strength of the ticket dispensing device 10.

[0087] Alternatively, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The ticket dispensing device 10 further includes a locking assembly 9, which is used to lock the upper channel plate 7 in a closed position to ensure that the position of the upper channel plate 7 is stable, thereby ensuring that the ticket paper 50 is reliably transported in the ticket dispensing device 10. Specifically, in this embodiment, the locking assembly 9 includes a locking shaft 91, an elastic member 92 and a hook 93, wherein the locking shaft 91 is movably arranged on the upper channel plate 7, and the locking shaft 91 can move relative to the upper channel plate 7 to have a locking position and an unlocking position, the elastic member 92 is connected between the locking shaft 91 and the upper channel plate 7, and the elastic force of the elastic member 92 makes the locking shaft 91 always have a tendency to move toward the locking position, and the hook 93 is arranged on at least one of the first bracket 31 and the second bracket 32. When the upper channel plate 7 is in the closed position, under the elastic force of the elastic member 92, the locking shaft 91 is engaged with the hook 93. When the upper channel plate 7 is to be opened, the locking shaft 91 is pulled to overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 92 and move to the unlocking position. The locking shaft 91 is separated from the hook 93 to open the upper channel plate 7.

[0088] Alternatively, please continue to refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The ticket dispensing device 10 includes two conveying mechanisms 5, which are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the two ticket clamping roller groups 2. The motor 61 can be drivingly connected to the transmission shafts 51 of the two conveying mechanisms 5 respectively; or the transmission shafts 51 of the two conveying mechanisms 5 are integrally configured as a long shaft, and the motor 61 is drivingly connected to the long shaft.
