Patent

CA 2328854

The dispenser (21 ) dispenses tickets (46) such as instant-winner lottery tickets from a strip in which the individual tickets are delineated by perforation lines (47). The dispenser includes a separator (58) to tear the tickets apart before issuing them from the machine. The separator preferably is rotary and has a dull helical blade (92) which rotates to contact the ticket strip adjacent a perforation line, and presses against the strip to tear the tickets apart along the perforation line at a point which progresses across the strip along the perforation line. A detector (l40) is provided to position the front edge of the first ticket in the strip at the proper location before separation is performed. Preferably, a code bar reader is provided for reading information from the tickets to initialize the dispenser control system and in accounting for the sale of tickets, and in the verification of winning tickets being sold.

Le distributeur (21) distribue des billets (46), tels que des billets de loterie à gain instantané, à partir d'une bande dans laquelle les différents billets sont délimités par des lignes perforées (47). Le distributeur comprend un séparateur (58), qui sépare les billets par déchirure avant de les faire sortir de la machine. De préférence, le séparateur est rotatif et comporte une pale hélicoïdale mousse (92), qui tourne de façon à entrer en contact avec la bande de billets adjacente à une ligne de perforation et qui appuie sur ladite bande afin de séparer les billets, le long de la ligne perforée, au niveau d'un point qui progresse à travers la bande le long de ladite ligne. Avant la séparation, un détecteur (140) positionne correctement le bord menant du premier billet de la bande. De préférence, un lecteur de code à barres lit les informations portées par les billets de façon à lancer le système de commande du distributeur, comptabilise la vente des billets et vérifie les billets gagnants vendus.
