Description

Self-service film return system and self-service film return method

technical field

The invention relates to a film returning system and a film returning method, in particular to a self-service film returning system and a self-service film returning method that can provide unmanned film returning services.

Background technique

In the current optical disc return service, mainly the optical disc rental store employs clerks to accept the returned optical discs from consumers at the store's counter, so as to provide consumer return service.

The following briefly describes the process of the above-mentioned return service. When the consumer wants to return the optical disc, the clerk first obtains the rental information (such as rental time or payment status) of the optical disc that the consumer rents. Then, the clerk checks whether the appearance of the optical disc is intact. If the appearance is intact, then collect and store the optical disc returned by the consumer. Then, according to the lease information, confirm whether there is an overtime fee and proceed to checkout.

However, the above-mentioned manual return method makes the store need to spend additional personnel costs on the film return service. Moreover, the consumer can only return the optical disc during the store's business hours, which causes great inconvenience.

In order to solve the above problems, some CD rental stores have set up self-service return boxes at the door of the store. The consumer can directly put the rented optical disc into the self-service return box during non-business hours. During business hours, the clerk collects all the optical discs in the self-service return box together, and returns each optical disc separately.
