Esta identificación unívoca, permite obtener la trazabilidad de cada una de las monedas tratadas por el sistema. Para la obtención de una catalogación y de un registro completo de las monedas tratadas, el sistema permite registrar, a través de los medios de registro, dicho código de identificación único en vistas a la generación de una ficha o de un documento recopilatorio de la información prealmacenada y generada en cada etapa o por cada elemento del sistema que esté relacionada con cada moneda tratada por el sistema. Preferably, the labeling means are responsible for generating and labeling a unique identification code for each currency. In that case, the registration means may be configured to register the identification code of each currency. In this way, each currency is individualize, that is, it is allowed to identify each currency individually. This unique identification allows to obtain the traceability of each of the coins treated by the system. In order to obtain a cataloging and a complete registry of the currencies treated, the system allows to register, through the means of registration, said unique identification code in order to generate a file or a document compiling the information pre-stored and generated at each stage or for each system element that is related to each currency treated by the system.

Asimismo, la invención permite una catalogación rápida permitiendo reducir notablemente el tiempo empleado en catalogar un determinado conjunto de monedas por la invención propuesta en lugar de por un trabajador.  The invention offers a system for cataloging coins in a massive, fast and automatic way since the system is designed to work with coins deposited on means of transport, not requiring the individual insertion of the coins in the system. Likewise, the invention allows a rapid cataloging allowing to reduce significantly the time spent in cataloging a certain set of coins by the proposed invention instead of by a worker.
La presente invención permite determinar el origen de cada moneda que pasa por el sistema, temporal y geográfico, a través del grado de desfase entre el anverso y el reverso de cada moneda a partir de las imágenes capturadas y la información de cotejo prealmacenada. Asimismo, la invención permite una discriminación más exhaustiva en base a parámetros como peso, perímetro, área y sombras generadas en las caras de una moneda ya que el relieve de una moneda constituye un elemento diferenciador. The present invention allows to determine the origin of each currency that passes through the system, temporal and geographical, through the degree of lag between the front and back of each coin from the captured images and the pre-stored check information. Likewise, the invention allows more exhaustive discrimination based on parameters such as weight, perimeter, area and shadows generated on the faces of a coin since the relief of a coin constitutes a differentiating element.
Según lo anterior, la presente invención alcanza satisfactoriamente los objetivos anteriormente señalados como idóneos para la técnica. According to the foregoing, the present invention satisfactorily achieves the aforementioned objectives as suitable for the technique.
Realización preferente de la invención Preferred Embodiment of the Invention
En una realización preferente de la presente invención, el sistema y el método descrito podrían utilizarse en un proceso de restauración de monedas antiguas. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the system and the described method could be used in a process of restoring old coins.
Las monedas estarían depositadas en los medios de transporte de monedas del sistema, de forma que dichos medios de transporte, consistentes por ejemplo, en una cinta transportadora, las conducen a los medios de captura de imágenes donde se procede a la captura y al registro de las imágenes del anverso y del reverso de cada moneda. Tras la captura de imágenes, el sistema, a través de los medios de procesado, obtiene y registra al menos un parámetro discriminativo de cada moneda. Los registros sucesivosThe coins would be deposited in the means of transport of coins of the system, so that said means of transport, consisting of For example, on a conveyor belt, they are taken to the image capture means where the images of the front and back of each coin are captured and recorded. After image capture, the system, through the processing means, obtains and records at least one discriminative parameter of each currency. Successive records
(imágenes de anverso y reverso, parámetros discriminativos, etc.) que va haciendo el sistema en los medios de registro del sistema, permiten recopilar la información relacionada con cada una de las monedas tratadas. Esta información recopilada, incluye información prealmacenada, información generada para cada moneda e información adicional incluida tras su primer paso por el sistema. (front and back images, discriminative parameters, etc.) that the system is making in the means of registering the system, allow to collect the information related to each of the currencies treated. This information collected includes pre-stored information, information generated for each currency and additional information included after its first step through the system.
Una vez obtenidos los parámetros discriminativos, la moneda tratada vuelve a la cinta transportadora para su etiquetado, por los medios de etiquetado, y para su enmallado, por los medios de enmallado. Los medios de etiquetado generan un código de identificación único para cada moneda que los medios de registro, registran, en vista a una identificación posterior de la moneda. Por su parte, los medios de enmallado, enmallan cada moneda de forma individual asegurando la fijación de la etiqueta. Once the discriminative parameters have been obtained, the treated currency returns to the conveyor belt for labeling, by means of labeling, and for its mesh, by means of mesh. The labeling means generate a unique identification code for each currency that the registration means register, in view of a subsequent identification of the currency. For its part, the means of mesh, mesh each coin individually ensuring the fixation of the label.
El proceso de restauración continuaría con un proceso de limpieza consistente en un baño químico por parte de las monedas enmalladas. El baño podría provocar el desprendimiento de las etiquetas de las monedas, motivo por el que las monedas son enmalladas. De esta forma, se asegura la persistencia de las etiquetas en las mismas y consecuentemente, la trazabilidad de cada moneda. The restoration process would continue with a cleaning process consisting of a chemical bath by the meshed coins. The bath could cause the detachment of the labels of the coins, reason why the coins are meshed. In this way, the persistence of the labels on them and consequently, the traceability of each currency is ensured.
Por último, el proceso de restauración se completaría con el paso de las monedas limpias nuevamente por el sistema. Dicho sistema leería las etiquetas de las monedas limpias, capturaría y registraría nuevamente las imágenes del anverso y del reverso de cada moneda. Concluido el proceso, las monedas se almacenarían en bandejas numismáticas para su conservación. Finally, the restoration process would be completed with the passage of clean coins again through the system. This system would read the labels of the clean coins, capture and register again the images on the front and back of each coin. Concluded the process, the coins would be stored in numismatic trays for conservation.
Finalmente, a la vista de esta descripción, el experto en la materia podrá entender que la invención ha sido descrita según algunas realizaciones preferentes de la misma, pero que múltiples variaciones pueden ser introducidas en dichas realizaciones preferentes, sin salir del objeto de la invención tal y como ha sido reivindicada. Finally, in view of this description, the person skilled in the art may understand that the invention has been described according to some preferred embodiments thereof, but that multiple variations can be introduced in said preferred embodiments, without departing from the object of the invention such and as claimed.
