20080283451 | Device and Method for Checking Banknotes - The invention relates to an apparatus and a method for checking bank notes wherein measuring values of the bank note to be checked are obtained and a classification of the bank note is carried out by evaluation of the measuring values in a plurality of checking steps, whereby the classification distinguishes in particular at least the classification categories, counterfeit, suspect and genuine bank notes, or acceptable or redispensable, and a linkage of a plurality of measuring values is formed at least in one checking step for deciding whether the checked bank note corresponds to a given classification category and this linkage term is compared with a corresponding tolerance range during evaluation. | 11-20-2008 |
20080283589 | Method for Identifying Banknotes Origin - The invention relates to a method for verifying the origin of bank notes from an automatic teller. | 11-20-2008 |
20090001157 | Method and Device for Processing Banknotes - The present invention concerns a method and an apparatus for processing bank notes. | 01-01-2009 |
20090028415 | Apparatus for Checking the Authenticity of Banknotes - The present invention relates to an apparatus for checking the authenticity of bank notes in unprotected areas. | 01-29-2009 |
20090095663 | Method And Device For Accepting Banknotes - The present invention concerns a method and an apparatus for accepting bank notes. | 04-16-2009 |
20100065639 | SECURITY ELEMENT FOR PROTECTING DOCUMENTS OF VALUE - The invention relates to a security element for protecting documents of value, which has magnetic material. A portion of a magnetic coding is arranged on the security element, which coding consists of several magnetic areas and several gap areas. The portion of the magnetic coding is arranged in a predetermined direction along the security element, for example perpendicularly to a transport direction of the security element or document of value through a magnet sensor. Concerning the length of the magnetic areas and of the gap areas of the magnetic coding, certain length conditions are predetermined, which are chosen in dependence on the magnet sensor employed. | 03-18-2010 |
20100128934 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR TESTING VALUE DOCUMENTS - The invention relates to a method and apparatus for recognizing forged value documents, for example composed forgeries which are assembled from parts of different value documents. In the inventive method, the signal intensity of a measuring signal is determined at a plurality of measuring points on a value document. For one or more selected groups of measuring points which are disposed in particular along certain directions on the value document there are determined gradient values of the signal intensities. The gradient values of a group are subsequently linked to form a connection strength of the group which provides a quantitative statement about the extent to which a large gradient value exists consistently within the particular group. From a relatively great connection strength there can be inferred the presence of a separating line in the area of the selected group of measuring points. | 05-27-2010 |
20100219245 | SECURITY ELEMENT FOR SECURING DOCUMENTS OF VALUE - The invention relates to a security element for securing documents of value. Along the security element a portion of a magnetic coding with first and second coding elements is arranged. The coding elements are arranged along a predetermined direction, wherein the first coding element continuously has along the predetermined direction a first magnetic region with a first coercive field strength and the second coding element has at least one first gap region and one second magnetic region with a second coercive field strength. At least one of the first magnetic regions is directly adjacent to at least one of the second magnetic regions. The sum of the lengths of the directly adjacent first and second magnetic regions amounts to a maximum of 8 mm. | 09-02-2010 |
20130317960 | METHOD FOR THE PROCESSING OF BANKNOTES - A method for the processing of bank notes wherein serial numbers of the bank notes to be processed are ascertained and compared with stored serial numbers in order to control the processing of the bank notes, having a specification of several classes which respectively characterize at least one property of bank notes, an association of at least one of the classes with one or several serial numbers in order to associate at least one property with the bank note provided with the respective serial number, a storage of the respective serial number as well as of the associated class or classes, and a control of the processing of the bank notes by means of the stored classes associated with the respective serial numbers. | 11-28-2013 |
