165 METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR FRAUD DETECTION PCT/US0230890 2002-09-26 WO03030111A3 2003-10-16 MATTICE HAROLD E
A method and apparatus for detection of fraudulent money (304) or tokens is disclosed. In one embodiment the method and apparatus operates in a coin path (302), the coin path being configured to accept and direct a coin. Prior to credit being provided for a coin or other item of value, the method and apparatus detects and analyzes objects in the coin path. Various methods may be implemented to perform detection and analysis. In one embodiment, the fraud detection system and method includes a sensor (206) mounted to monitor a coin rake (202) or other gating device. By monitoring the behavior of the coin rake fraudulent money or tokens may be detected. In another embodiment, one or more emitter/detector pairs (218, 220) are located in the coin path. The emitters transmit a form of energy across the coin path for detection by a detector. Use of a fraud perpetration device in the coin path can be detected by the emitter/detector pairs. In still embodiment the emitter/detector pairs utilize complex signal schemes (214), such as signal modulation or random signaling generation, to detect fraud perpetration devices

168 METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TESTING COINS PCT/US1992008783 1992-10-15 WO1993021608A1 1993-10-28 MARS INCORPORATED; FURNEAUX, David, Michael; WAITE, Timothy, Peter; BAILEY, John, William; RALPH, Alan; CHITTLEBOROUGH, Michael; SAGADY, Cary
A method of testing a coin (10) in a coin testing mechanism, comprising subjecting a coin (10) inserted into the mechanism to an oscillating field generated by an inductor (104), measuring the reactance and the loss of the inductor (104) when the coin (10) is in the field, and determining whether the direction in the impedance plane of a displacement line, representing the displacement of a coin-present point (b, c, d) which is defined by the measurements, relative to a coin-absent point (a) representing the inductor reactance and loss in the absence of a coin, corresponds to a reference direction in the impedance plane. The reactance and loss measurements may be taken by a phase discrimination method. Techniques and apparatus are disclosed for compensating for phase error in the phase discrimination, for measuring the direction of the displacement line relative to a different axis, for applying offsets to achieve advantages in signal handling, for making the measurements thickness-sensitive, and for using the change in reactance as an additional coin acceptance criterion. Some of these refinements are usable independantly of the phase discrimination method.

A coin discriminating apparatus includes a magnetic sensor for detecting magnetic properties of a coin being transported and producing magnetic data of the coin, an optical sensor for producing optical data of the coin, a reference optical data memory for storing reference optical data of an obverse surface and a reverse surface of coins of each denomination, a reference magnetic data memory for storing reference magnetic data of an obverse surface and a reverse surface of coins of each denomination to be discriminated, a first coin discriminator for comparing optical data of the coin produced by the optical sensor with reference optical data of an obverse surface and a reverse surface of coins of each denomination and determining whether or not the coin is acceptable and the denomination of the coin, and a second coin discriminator for reading from the reference magnetic data memory magnetic reference data selected depending upon whether reference optical data of the obverse surface of a coin of a certain denomination or those of the reverse surface of the coin of the denomination were used when the first coin discriminator determined the coin to be acceptable and the denomination of the coin based thereon and comparing them with the magnetic data produced by the magnetic sensor, thereby finally discriminating whether or not the coin is acceptable and the denomination of the coin. According to the thus constituted coin discriminating apparatus, it is possible to accurately discriminate a counterfeit coin even when optical data acquired from the counterfeit coin such as diameter data and surface pattern data thereof coincide with those of genuine coins of a certain denomination and when the magnetic data acquired from the counterfeit coin are similar to those of coins of the denomination.

170 COIN VALIDATOR PCT/GB1996002944 1996-11-28 WO1997027567A1 1997-07-31 COIN CONTROLS LTD.
A coin validator (1) is operable in a set up mode prior to normal operation, in which initial window data (W) stored in its memory, is compared with data from a known true coin, and the initial window is progressively dragged and shrunk depending on the outcome of the comparison, to produce an operating window (W'), narrower than the initial window, which can be used during normal operation of the validator, for comparison with coin data (x) from coins under test, in order to determine coin acceptability. The initial window (W) can be the same for all validators of the same design, and the dragging and shrinking configures the operating window (W') to the validators individually, to take account of manufacturing tolerances.
171 Low profile coin analyzer apparatus US303770 1994-09-09 US5566808A 1996-10-22 Donald O. Parker; Keith W. Parker
An electronic coin analyzer having a low profile that is especially useful for applications previously limited to mechanical devices includes a test coin path aligned with a coin-receiving opening in a faceplate and a rejected coin path laterally offset from the test coin path and aligned with a coin reject slot in the faceplate. An opening is defined between the test coin path and the rejected coin path that is larger than an acceptable coin/token. A coin deflecting surface is selectively positioned in the test coin path at the opening by an electromagnetic actuator in order to laterally deflect coins rolling along the test coin path toward the rejected coin path. Coins not deflected continue rolling past the opening, as a result of inertia, to an accepted coin path. An electronic control is provided having a test coin sensor and a circuit which causes the actuator to withdraw the deflecting surface from the test coin path in response to an acceptable coin. Multiple denominations of coins and/or tokens may be accepted by providing the control with the capability of identifying a test coin in the test coin path as a particular one of a group of acceptable coins or tokens. A coin accelerator may be provided in the rejected coin path to intercept forward motion of the coin and convert this motion to motion in the opposite direction. A kicker device may be provided in the test coin path in order to accelerate a coin travelling through the test coin path.

The thus constituted coin wrapping machine can accurately detect whether the number of coins to be wrapped is more than or less than a predetermined number even in the case where new issue coins and past issue circulating coins of the same denomination are wrapped together.
174 Coin confirming device and method JP33689498 1998-11-27 JPH11232517A 1999-08-27 YELLOP ANDREW MICHAEL; MARS FRANK
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To consider reference concerning articles more than those which can be considered within time which can be used for confirming operation by comparing a measured characteristic with reference related to another type of an article. SOLUTION: While a coin 6 passes through along the passage 8 of a confirming device 4, the coin 6 is electromagnetically inspected by an inspection part 9 and the device 4 provides a signal showing whether the coin 6 can be accepted or not and a signal showing the money kind of the coin 6 at the time of being acceptable. Next, an acceptable coin 6 enters a coin separator 10 as the result of the operation of an accepting/rejecting gate 11 according to an accepting result from the device 4. The separator 10 is provided with many gates to allow the coin 6 to turn its direction from a main passage 12 to one of many other passages 14, 16 and 18 or to advance to a passage 20 to a coin box 21 along the passage 12. When the coin 6 can not be accepted, the gate 11 is not operated and led to a rejecting port through a coin passage 30.
