Patent number: 8531652Abstract: A counterfeit detection apparatus is formed as a desktop currency detector which has a slim configuration and a small footprint on the order of about 175 mm×100 mm. The desktop counterfeit detector provides white light that can shine from below a currency bill that is placed on its translucent cover and also provides and overhead UV lamp which is situated approximately 30 mm above the translucent light table. The detector also provides a compartment for a counterfeit detector pen which contains a special ink formulation that can apply a color changing test mark to a currency bill to test its reaction with the paper to determine its genuineness. Thus, the detector provides a three-test opportunity to check the genuineness of a currency bill by white light, UV light and a specially formulated ink suitable for checking the paper stock.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2011Date of Patent: September 10, 2013Assignee: Dri-Mark ProductsInventors: Dwight Haas, Mark Dobbs, Jeffrey Kelsoe

Patent number: 7715613Abstract: An ultraviolet (UV) detector for detecting and verifying the authenticity of documents placed therein and exposed to UV light and white light backlighting. The UV detector includes a detector housing, and a viewing chamber having a viewing mirror mounted therein for viewing documents. The detector housing also includes a document insertion slot for inserting documents into the viewing chamber adjacent to the viewing mirror. The detector housing further includes an LED holder for holding one or more LED'S to provide a source of UV light in the viewing chamber which is transmitted to the viewing mirror and to the documents for identifying UV activated features on the documents. Additionally, the detector housing includes an LED and translucent member disposed therein for providing diffuse visible white light for identifying watermarks on the documents. A user looks into the viewing chamber for viewing the UV activated features and watermarks on the documents.Type: GrantFiled: September 8, 2006Date of Patent: May 11, 2010Inventors: Mark Dobbs, Jeffrey Kelsoe, Dwight Haas

Patent number: 6688792Abstract: A stacked marker is formed by stacking individual stackable markers where each stackable marker is a fully functional marker and each stackable marker can be selected for use and then reassembled to store the restackable marker. Each stackable marker is originally assembled as an otherwise ordinary marker, but with a temporary utility cap, which, upon being inserted into a rear receptacle in another marker, is left therein to form the permanent cap for other markers. When fully assembled, the stacked marker becomes a multi-unit final assembly that affords one the use of a plurality of different types of markers that are snapped together during non-use and taken apart to select individual markers during use.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2002Date of Patent: February 10, 2004Assignee: Dri Mark Products, Inc.Inventors: Andre Reichmann, Mark Dobbs
