GAMING CARD PROCESSING DEVICE ENABLING THE FIRST-IN-FIRST-OUT MANAGEMENT OF REWRITABLE CARDS

摘要

The present invention aims to provide: a gaming card processing device which can improve the efficiency of card management and operation management by being configured so as to have an arrangement whereby a card which is collected first is issued first when collecting and issuing cards, namely a first-in-first-out (FIFO) arrangement; and a card issuing and collection device for the card processing device. The present invention is configured such that a card which is collected first is issued first when collecting and issuing cards, and hence has the effect of improving the efficiency of card management and operation management by equalizing the frequency of card use. Also, the present invention can prevent machine errors and enhance the reliability of the product by having only one card, not a plurality of cards, issued (passed through) at the time of card issue. Also, the present invention can maintain the normal state of a machine by eliminating erroneous cards quickly when circumstance such as card jam, data recording error and card recognition failure occur at the time of card issue or collection.
