ABSTRACT:
A ticket reader and imprinter particularly suitable for use with previously dispensed parking tickets upon which information such as parking time and date is to be stamped. A limit switch is activated when a parking ticket is inserted by a vehicle operator into a throat of the imprinter, and an optical reader senses correct orientation and positioning of the ticket. The stamping solenoid of a conventional time recorder is then energized so that the desired time and date information is stamped upon the ticket, after which the ticket may be extracted from the imprinter by the vehicle operator. A swing-arm vehicle gate is activated when the ticket is stamped so that the vehicle operator may proceed into a parking zone.
A method of parking a vehicle in a multiple-zone parking facility is also disclosed wherein entrance to and exit from all but one of the parking zones is had through another parking zone rather than from a vehicle highway. At the entrance to and exit from each zone, suitable time and date indicia related to that zone is stamped upon a previously dispensed parking ticket.
