Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a system comprising infrared radiation emitters (4), said radiation falling on the security measures on each banknote, and sensors (3) receiving the signals coming from the banknote (2), in addition to dragging means and means for laterally aligning the banknote. The signals received by the sensors are analyzed by a microcontroller in which the authenticity of the banknote is checked with the aid of an internal program of firmware. The dragging means consist of friction wheels (12) powered by a motor (10) that is activated when the sensor (3') detects the entrance of a bill (2). The lateral alignment means consist of a lateral, complementary wheel (12') that moves the banknote to one of the sides. The system also has an encoder (14) that is moved by the banknote (2) and a system for communicating with an external computer
