Problems solved by technology

[0010] Therefore, in the configuration proposed in Patent Document 1, there is a problem that the amount of light received by the light receiving part for detecting the fluorescent light emitting pattern of the paper sheet decreases due to the contamination of the optical filter, and the detection accuracy of the fluorescent light emitting pattern decreases.
[0011] In addition, in Patent Document 2, as described above, since the fluorescence emission pattern of paper sheets is not detected, no optical filter is arranged in front of the light receiving unit.

Abstract

The present invention provides an optical sensor and a recognizing unit, which restrains detection precision reduction of a fluorescent light-emitting pattern that is caused by muddiness of an optical wave filter that is provided in front of a light receiving part for detecting the fluorescent light emitting pattern of the paper. A paper money recognizing unit (20) is characterized in that: a detection part (24) causes a second light emitter (22B) of a light emitting part (22) to emit light and irradiates the light with a second wavelength (S11). A detection part (24) regulates the power supplied to the second light emitter (22B) and detects the powers (P1) which are output from a light receiving part (23) and becomes the reference value stored by a storage part (26) (S12). The detection part (24) calculates a supply power (P2) to a correction value based on the power (P1) detected in (S12) and a related function (F) that is stored in the storage part (26) when the light emitting amount of a first light emitter (22A) becomes the light emitting amount which is suitable for fluorescent light emitting pattern detection (S13). The paper money recognizing unit (20) controls the power that is supplied to the first light emitter (22A) based on the correction value stored in the storage part (26).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an optical sensor that detects a fluorescent light emission pattern of a fluorescent substance included in paper sheets, and an identification unit that uses the optical sensor to determine the authenticity of a detected fluorescent pattern. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, there are automatic machines that process paper sheets such as banknotes, checks, and securities. Such an automatic machine includes an identification unit for identifying authenticity of paper sheets to be handled. As such an automatic machine, there are, for example, cash automatic teller machines (hereinafter referred to as ATMs) installed in stores by financial institutions such as banks. [0003] Banknotes are printed with anti-counterfeiting patterns using ink (ink containing fluorescent substances) that emits light (hereinafter referred to as fluorescence) when irradiated with light of a specific wavelength (hereinafter referred ...
