Patent number: 9704325Abstract: A cashbox is provided with a movable latch that is driven by a banknote to a blocking position if an attempt to ‘phish’ a stacked banknote from the cashbox occurs. The latch arrangement is easily pivoted in one direction from a neutral position to a clear position during stacking of a banknote. If an attempt is made to ‘phish’ a stacked banknote, the banknote being “phished” causes rotation of the latch arrangement from the neutral position to a banknote inlet blocking position retaining the banknote in the cashbox.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2014Date of Patent: July 11, 2017Assignee: CRANE CANADA CO.Inventors: Oleksandr Onipchenko, Pavel Rabinovich

Publication number: 20160031664Abstract: A banknote drive arrangement adjacent a banknote inlet repositions and drives a banknote into a banknote processing pathway for validation. The drive arrangement includes two drive rollers preferably spaced either side of a longitudinal axis of the pathway and adjacent to the banknote inlet. Each drive roller is separately controlled to allow different rotational speeds thereof (and forward and rearward movement Of a banknote) to allow shifting of a received end portion of a banknote before receiving the entire length of the banknote. This arrangement is preferably used with a sensing arrangement for sensing misalignment of an inserted banknote and if sensed, using the different rotational speeds to correct misalignment and preferably center a banknote in the processing pathway.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2014Publication date: February 4, 2016Inventors: Oleksandr Onipchenko, Pavel Rabinovich

Patent number: 8181852Abstract: A banknote stack receiving structure is provided in front of a banknote validator for sequentially passing banknotes to the validator in a serial manner. A first drive arrangement engages one side of an exposed banknote and urges the banknote towards the validator. A restrictive drive cooperates with the first drive and a banknote must pass between opposed rollers of the drives to move to the validator. The restrictive drive roller contacts the opposite side of the exposed banknote but may also contact an overlapping banknote. The restrictive drive rotates to feed a banknote to the validator if a single banknote is present and automatically rotates in an opposite direction if overlapping banknotes are present. This automatic direction of rotation is due to slippage between banknotes and overcoming a low torque motor of the restrictive drive when a single banknote is present.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 2006Date of Patent: May 22, 2012Assignee: Crane Canada Co.Inventors: Leon Saltsov, Volodymyr Barchuk, Sergiy Androsyuk, Oleksandr Soyfer, Mykhaylo Bazhenov, Olga Bazhenova, legal representative, Bogdan Mishunin, Oleksandr Onipchenko

Patent number: 8104764Abstract: A banknote cassette advantageously uses injection molded endcaps to capture and secure a connecting sleeve to collectively form a generally rectangular housing of the banknote cassette. A movable access lid cooperates with the endcaps and connecting sleeve for locking of the cassette. Preferably, a banknote slot is formed as part of one of the endcaps to provide precision in the size of position of the banknote slot. The endcaps can be used with different sized connecting sleeves to simplify the manufacture of different capacity banknote cassettes. Preferably, the connecting sleeve is of a metal material.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 2006Date of Patent: January 31, 2012Assignee: Crane Canada Co.Inventors: Leon Saltsov, Mykhaylo Kucherenko, Sergiy Bukhman, Olga Sydorchenko, legal representative, Oleksandr Onipchenko, Andriy Kyselov

Publication number: 20070069444Abstract: A banknote cassette includes a container having a spring biased pressure plate for maintaining a stack of received banknotes. A cable retraction mechanism exerts the bias force on the pressure plate and allows the displacement of the stack of banknotes when a banknote is added to the stack. Preferably, a helically wound spring cooperates with a cable reel to wind and unwind the cable as necessary and to maintain a tension force in said cable.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 18, 2006Publication date: March 29, 2007Inventors: Leon Saltsov, Mykhaylo Kucherenko, Volodimir Shvarts, Oleksandr Onipchenko

Publication number: 20030116400Abstract: A banknote accumulator receives banknotes on a winding drum interior to a housing through a banknote slot. The housing has a number of unique features including its exterior shape. The accumulator is essentially passive as the operation thereof is controlled by an exterior system but it includes various senses and signal processing to provide information to adjust the operation of the accumulator. In a preferred aspect of the invention, the housing includes transparent panels that allow visual inspection of the interior of the housing. A hinged panel is movable between a closed operative position and an open service position and is held in the closed operative position by a latch.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2002Publication date: June 26, 2003Inventors: Leon Saltsov, Oleksandr Onipchenko, Sergiy Bukhman, Sergiy Androsyuk, Mykhaylo Kucherenko

Publication number: 20030062667Abstract: A method of loading banknotes to a banknote validator and dispenser system replaces the existing validator with a combination loader and validator. A stack of banknotes has been preloaded in the loader and are not accessible to the service technician. The loader is inserted into the system in place of the removed validator and forms an electrical connection with the system. Banknotes are fed from the loader and directed by the system to the appropriate accumulator and stored therein for later dispensing. The validator of the loader can be of high speed to reduce the loading time. Access to the stack of banknotes and access to banknotes stored in the accumulators is restricted and secure.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 16, 2002Publication date: April 3, 2003Inventors: Leon Saltsov, Sergiy Bukhman, Sergiy Androsyuk, Mykhaylo Kucherenko, Oleksandr Onipchenko, Boris Gisar
