Abstract

SE PROPORCIONA UN PROCEDIMIENTO PARA PROBAR MONEDAS, EN EL QUE UN RAYO LASER (13) SE DIRIGE SOBRE UNA CARA DE UNA MONEDA (4) Y SE USA UN DETECTOR DE LASER (3) PARA COMPROBAR EL LUGAR EN QUE LA MONEDA INTERCEPTA EL RAYO LASER, Y EL LUGAR EN QUE LA MONEDA NO LO INTERCEPTA, A FIN DE OBTENER UNA INDICACION DE UNA CARACTERISTICA DE LA CARA DE LA MONEDA. LA CARACTERISTICA DE LA MONEDA SE USA PARA IDENTIFICARLA. LA INVENCION SE REFIERE IGUALMENTE A UN APARATO PARA PROBAR MONEDAS, QUE COMPRENDE UNA FUENTE DE LASER (11) PARA DIRIGIR UN RAYO LASER (13) SOBRE UNA CARA DE UNA MONEDA (4), UN DETECTOR LASER (3) PARA DETECTAR EL LUGAR EN QUE EL LASER ES INTERCEPTADO POR LA MONEDA Y EN EL QUE EL RAYO NO ES INTERCEPTADO POR LA MISMA, Y UN PROCESADOR DE SEÑALES (14), QUE OBTIENE UNA INDICACION, PROCEDENTE DE UNA SALIDA DEL DETECTOR DE LASER (3), DE UNA CARACTERISTICA DE LA CARA DE LA MONEDA QUE SE USA PARA IDENTIFICAR DICHA MONEDA.A PROCEDURE FOR TESTING COINS IS PROVIDED, IN WHICH A LASER BEAM (13) IS TARGETED ON ONE SIDE OF A COIN (4) AND A LASER DETECTOR (3) IS USED TO CHECK THE PLACE IN WHICH THE COIN INTERCEPTS THE LASER RAY. , AND THE PLACE IN WHICH THE CURRENCY DOES NOT INTERCEPT IT, IN ORDER TO OBTAIN AN INDICATION OF A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE FACE OF THE CURRENCY. THE CHARACTERISTIC OF THE CURRENCY IS USED TO IDENTIFY IT. THE INVENTION ALSO REFERS TO A COIN TESTING APPARATUS, WHICH INCLUDES A LASER SOURCE (11) TO DIRECT A LASER BEAM (13) ON A COIN SIDE (4), A LASER DETECTOR (3) TO DETECT THE PLACE IN THAT THE LASER IS INTERCEPTED BY THE CURRENCY AND IN WHICH THE LIGHTNING IS NOT INTERCEPTED BY THE CURRENCY, AND A SIGNAL PROCESSOR (14), THAT OBTAINS AN INDICATION, FROM A DEPARTURE OF THE LASER DETECTOR (3), OF A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE FACE OF THE COIN THAT IS USED TO IDENTIFY SUCH COIN.
