Patent number: 6574058Abstract: A technique for detecting a magnetic recording medium such as a strip on a magnetic card so as to distinguish between a case where a magnetic strip has high coercivity and one where it has low coercivity. A magnetic head detects the existence and appropriate positioning of a magnetic strip which is then fed to a permeability sensor that provides an output signal that is a function of the permeability magnetic strip. A circuit responsive to the output of the permeability sensor provides an output signal indicating the high coercivity strip when the permeability sensor output is low and indicating a low coercivity strip when the permeability sensor output is high.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 1999Date of Patent: June 3, 2003Assignee: Sankyo Seiki Mfg.

Patent number: 6513713Abstract: A detecting apparatus for reading the magnetic strip on a card compensates for coercivity variations by employing two magnetizing coils wound in opposite senses on the magnetic poles and two detecting coils coupled to the magnetizing coils and which are also wound in opposite sense on the magnetic poles. Differential output from the detecting coils represents a shift from normal in the coercivity or permeability of the magnetic strip so as to permit compensation for shifts due to factors such as a warped card or dust intervening thereby permitting accurately identifying whether or not the magnetic strip on the card is a high coercive force type or a low coercive force type.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2000Date of Patent: February 4, 2003Assignee: Sankyo Seiki Mfg.
