| 20090014277 | Bill Discriminating and Counting Apparatus - According to the present invention, pieces of data of states of sensors and actuators in a bill discriminating and counting apparatus are stored in a ring memory at constant time intervals, among these stored data, both the data involved in an error are associated with the error events and stored in a non-volatile memory or a hard disk when the error is occurred in the bill discriminating and counting apparatus, and then the data is read from the non-volatile memory or hard disk to analyze the error. Specifically, digital port input and output information (states of sensors and actuators), analog sensor voltage, and analog motor current value are stored in a memory at constant time intervals since the power is turned on or the counting is started, and the stored port information and voltage are stored in the non-volatile memory or the like along with contents of abnormality when the abnormality is occurred. | 01-15-2009 |
| 20090004959 | COIN DEPOSITING AND DISPENSING MACHINE - A coin depositing and dispensing machine includes a partition frame arranged in front of a denomination-specific coin accumulating and ejecting portion. A pooling hopper portion and a coin identifying and sorting passage are provided on the front face of the partition frame. The partition frame can be moved between a position at which the denomination-specific coin accumulating and ejecting portion is partitioned from the outside of the machine body | 01-01-2009 |
| 20080281588 | SPEECH PROCESSING METHOD AND APPARATUS, STORAGE MEDIUM, AND SPEECH SYSTEM - A speech processing apparatus includes a spectrum envelope extracting unit which extracts the spectrum envelope of an input speech signal, a spectrum envelope deforming unit which applies deformation to the spectrum envelope to generate a deformed spectrum envelope, a spectrum fine structure extracting unit which extracts the spectrum fine structure of the input speech signal, a deformed spectrum generating unit which generates a deformed spectrum by combining the deformed spectrum envelope with the spectrum fine structure, and a speech generating unit which generates an output speech signal on the basis of the deformed spectrum. This apparatus emits a disrupting sound based on the output speech signal to prevent a third party from eavesdropping on a conversation. | 11-13-2008 |
| 20080230981 | Paper-Sheet Storing and Feeding Device - A sheet storing/feeding device includes a receptacle for holding standing sheets, a stacking and feeding mechanism to successively carry the sheets into the receptacle and to feed a forefront sheet out of the receptacle. A pushing member configured to be optionally advanced and retracted is provided on the side of the forefront sheet in the receptacle, and a holding member is provided to be in contact with a backmost sheet in the receptacle. A retaining member is provided to be optionally advanced and retracted relative to a storage space defined between the stacking and feeding mechanism and the holding member. The retaining member, when advanced, can hold the sheets in the receptacle between the retaining member and the holding member so as to bring them into a temporary holding state, while, when retracted, can release the paper-sheets in the temporary holding state. | 09-25-2008 |
