Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of banknote and bill identification technology, specifically a multispectral banknote and bill identification instrument. Background Technology

[0002] Current banknote authentication instruments suffer from significant shortcomings in terms of functional integration and comprehensive detection capabilities. Traditional equipment often employs single technologies such as ultraviolet fluorescence detection and magnetic detection, resulting in fragmented detection dimensions and an inability to systematically cover the complex anti-counterfeiting features of banknotes. For example, the ultraviolet light source in existing equipment can only verify the fluorescence reaction of the paper substrate, while the identification of colorless fluorescent ink in banknotes requires more sensitive spectral analysis. Although the red light penetration detection module can operate independently, its transmittance data cannot be synchronized with the white light imaging system, resulting in a lack of cross-verification of key parameters such as ink density distribution and infrared absorption characteristics. Furthermore, the light source configuration of most devices is limited to a single wavelength such as natural light or infrared light, which cannot simultaneously acquire the three-dimensional effect of intaglio ink under natural light, lacks the ability to detect fluorescent marks excited by ultraviolet light, and makes it difficult to enhance the detailed identification of special anti-counterfeiting areas through laser modules. This fragmented technical approach results in the inability to fuse multispectral data, affecting the accuracy of identifying highly realistic counterfeit banknotes and making it difficult to meet the identification needs of new composite anti-counterfeiting marks. Meanwhile, existing equipment suffers from inherent flaws in its mechanical structure and detection logic. For example, fixed light source layouts are difficult to adapt to the texture features of banknotes of different denominations, and rigid banknote feeding channels can easily cause folding at the edges of large banknotes, leading to missed detections of critical areas such as security threads and registration marks. The inefficiency of technology integration has become a core bottleneck restricting the upgrading of banknote authentication equipment. Utility Model Content

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0025] Example 1:

[0026] Figures 1-4 This invention provides a multispectral banknote identification device, comprising a base plate 1, side plates 2, and a top plate 3. The side plates 2 include two side plates on the left and right and a rear side plate 2. The lower end of the top plate 3 is provided with a camera 6 and a light assembly 5. The camera 6 is used to photograph banknotes placed on the base plate 1. The light assembly 5 includes a violet light module 51, a red light module 52, and a white light module 53. A display screen 4 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the top plate 3. The front end of the base plate 1 is provided with a control panel 7, which has control buttons 71. The control panel 7 is electrically connected to the light assembly 5.

[0027] The control panel 7 is equipped with a corresponding control system. After pressing the control button 71 on the control panel 7, the control system controls the purple light module 51, red light module 52, and white light module 53 to emit purple light, red light, and white light respectively. Among them, purple light can be used to assist in the identification of colorless ink anti-counterfeiting labels, infrared light can be used to assist in the identification of transmittance anti-counterfeiting labels, and white light is used to assist in the identification of embossed anti-counterfeiting labels. The camera 6 is always on during use, and the images it captures are transmitted to the display screen 4 through the control system. The control system is specifically mounted on the circuit board built into the base plate 1. The control system is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0028] The display screen 4 can be manually rotated to a suitable angle for the user. The display screen 4 is connected to the top plate 3 through a damping structure, which allows the display screen 4 to be fixed at a certain rotation angle for easy viewing by the user. Specifically, the display screen 4 is rotatably connected to the top plate 3 through a rotating shaft. Both ends of the rotating shaft extend into the interior of the top plate 3, and both ends of the rotating shaft are provided with multiple elastic protrusions 41. The elastic protrusions 41 are arranged circumferentially along the central axis of the rotating shaft. The top plate 3 is provided with a rotating shaft seat 31 that cooperates with the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft seat 31 is provided with a stop groove 32. Specifically, the stop groove 32 cooperates with the elastic protrusions 41. The elastic protrusions 41 can be engaged in any recessed stop groove 32. When the user rotates the display screen 4 by hand, they need to overcome the cooperating force between the elastic protrusions 41 and the stop groove 32 to rotate the shaft. After the display screen 4 is released, the elastic protrusions 41 cooperate with the stop groove 32 to fix the display screen 4 at a certain set angle.

[0029] In addition to the red light module 52, the purple light module 51, and the white light module 53, this embodiment has a laser component 33 mounted on the lower end face of the top plate 3. The laser component 33 is located between the camera 6 and the front end of the top plate 3. The laser component 33 is electrically connected to the control panel 7 through the control system. The control panel 7 is equipped with a control button 71 for controlling the switch of the laser component 33. The laser component 33 can identify some banknotes and notes that use the laser penetration principle as an anti-counterfeiting mark. When the laser shines on such anti-counterfeiting mark, it will form obvious light spots, thereby identifying the authenticity of the banknotes and notes.

[0030] In this embodiment, a magnetic induction device 72 is also installed on the control panel 7 to detect and identify whether the banknote has a magnetic anti-counterfeiting mark.

[0031] In this embodiment, the purple light module 51, the red light module 52, and the white light module 53 are arranged sequentially in a direction that gradually moves away from the camera 6.

[0032] Some banknotes are too large and long. Since the camera 6 is fixed, the anti-counterfeiting mark that is set off to the side on the banknote needs to be moved below the camera 6 during authentication. At this time, the other end of the banknote will be pressed against the inner wall of the side plate 2 and cannot be moved. Forcing it to move will cause the banknote to curl or even be damaged. Therefore, the lower part of the side plate 2 is separated from the base plate 1 to form a side seam 21, which allows the banknote to pass through. In this way, longer banknotes can extend to the outside of the base plate 1 through the side seam 21, and the camera 6 can accurately capture the anti-counterfeiting mark that is set off to the side.

[0033] The lower end of the side panel 2 is also equipped with a light component 5, which also has a purple light module 51, a red light module 52, and a white light module 53 to meet the side lighting requirements of some special banknotes and notes.

[0034] How to use:

[0035] Press the power button to start the device. Select the corresponding function according to the type of banknote to be identified. Press the corresponding control button 71. The corresponding ultraviolet light module 51 / red light module 52 / white light module 53 will be activated to illuminate the banknote on the base plate 1. Flip the display screen 4 to a suitable angle and obtain the partial features of the banknote captured by the camera 6 through the display screen 4 to identify the authenticity of the banknote or bill.

[0036] Example 2:

[0037] Figure 5 , Figure 6 This embodiment illustrates a multispectral banknote and bill authentication device. The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that this embodiment is further equipped with an auxiliary authentication device 8. The auxiliary authentication device 8 is connected to the data interface via a data cable. The auxiliary authentication device 8 is equipped with a camera 6 and a light component 5. The middle of the auxiliary authentication device 8 is hollowed out to allow the light component 5 to emit light and the camera 6 to take pictures. The camera 6 has a 50x magnification function and is mainly used to identify the fine anti-counterfeiting marks on some banknotes.

[0038] The above description is only an optional embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
