Patent number: 7309019Abstract: A method of checking a sheet as to forgery thereof, the sheet being provided with an electronic circuit chip from or in which information can be read out or written and having visible information. The method includes a step of encrypting the visible information of the sheet and storing the encrypted visible information in the electronic circuit chip, and a step of determining discriminatively the authenticity of the sheet by comparing the visible information of the sheet with the information stored in the electronic circuit chip.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 2006Date of Patent: December 18, 2007Assignees: Hitachi, Ltd., Hitachi Research InstituteInventors: Chikashi Okamoto, Kazuo Takaragi, Kazutaka Tsuji, Mitsuo Usami, Chizuko Yasunobu, Asahiko Isobe, Yasuhiro Tsunemi, Hiroyuki Yagi

Patent number: 5563394Abstract: Cash transaction machine and method for receiving and/or dispensing money by user's manipulation to transact the money comprise a bill receptacle, a bill dispense port, a bill storage and a transport unit for transporting the bill between the receptacle and/or the dispense port, a disinfection unit, and the storage. The bills received and/or to be dispensed are disinfected by the disinfection unit arranged in the transport unit by heating the bills by a heated roller, irradiating the bills by an ultraviolet ray from an ultraviolet ray lamp or applying disinfecting liquid to the bills. Alternatively, the bills are disinfected by a disinfection unit arranged in the storage by heating the bills by a heater or irradiating an electromagnetic wave to the bills.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 1995Date of Patent: October 8, 1996Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Yutaka Kako, Asahiko Isobe, Masataka Kawauchi, Tomomi Mizuno, Teruaki Mitsuya
