A height scale and other identifying data are displayed on the inner side of the mirror and are non-visible to the user but in photographic view of the camera. Activation of the apparatus is accomplished when the user inserts the credit card, cheque or the like into an appropriate slot provided in the housing and, if required, the indicated amount in a coin slot. A weight scale may also be provided to identify the weight of the user.
Description
- The present invention pertains to an apparatus for recording identifying data relating to the use of a credit card, cheque or like document whenever identification of the user of such. credit card, cheque or like document is needed. This application is a continuous-in-part application of serial no. 328,709 filed December 8, 1981.
- Various types of recording machines are known in the prior art. However, most of these machines are concerned with bank depository mechanisms at unmanned stations which identify visually the depositor and which deliver a receipt to the depositor. Such mechanisms can be found described in U.S. Patent no. 3,836,980 issued September 17, 1974 to Grosswiller et al and U.S. Patent no. 4,245,902 issued January 20, 1981 to Cataldo et al. Other depository constructions for receiving deposits at unattended banking stations where a customer identifying card is inserted to initiate a deposit procedure are also known, one of which may be found described in U.S. patent no. 4,085,687 issued April 25, 1978 to Beck et al.
- On the other hand, there is often need in banks, when cash is to be remitted on a request supported by a credit card, cheque or other document, to have some record of the customer using such credit card, cheque or like document. This is not only true for banks but also in other establishments, such as hotels, where the use of credit cards or cheques serve to settle bills or accounts.
- It is an object of the present invention to reduce fraud in such transactions. This is achieved by providing an apparatus which will record identifying data relative to the user of a credit card, cheque or similar document and which will dispense a receipt disclosing at least part of such data.
- The apparatus of the present invention comprises a housing, a one-way mirror and a camera mounted therein for taking a picture of the user, through the one-way mirror. The apparatus is also equipped with means to dispense a receipt to the user, which receipt will show some of the information recorded by the apparatus. Some of this information is displayed on the inner side of the mirror and is photographed by the camera means.
- One feature of the present invention is that the information displayed on the inner side of the mirror is in photographic view of the camera so that, as the user is photographed, this information is also photographed and will appear on the photographic film.
- The present invention therefore relates-to an apparatus for recording identifying data relative to the use of a credit card, cheque or like document which comprises: a housing; a one-way mirror mounted to the housing and disposed in a face viewing relation to the user of the credit card, cheque or like document; camera means mounted in the housing in photographic view of the mirror; height indication means in photographic view of the camera to record indication relative to the height of the user when the camera is actuated; identifying data on the inner side of the mirror in photographic view of the camera to record information relative to the use of the apparatus when the camera is actuated; means for causing actuation of the camera means; and means for dispensing outside the housing a receipt giving information including at least part of the identifying data.
- In another form of the invention, a weight scale is provided outside the housing but is associated with the identifying data displayed on the inner side of `the mirror so that the photograph taken will also register the weight of the user.
- In another form of the invention, the actuation means consist of a compartment which the credit card, cheque or like document is inserted. Means are provided to detect the presence of the credit card and to activate the photographic process.
- Other objects, purposes and characteristic features of the present invention will be, in part, obvious from the accompanying drawings and, in part, pointed out as the description of the invention progresses. In describing the invention in detail, reference will be made to the accompanying drawings, in which like reference characters designate corresponding parts throughout the several views..

Amechanism 82 serves for detecting any defects in the operation of the apparatus, in which case alamp 84, located in the upper part of the front walls will be lit to indicate that the apparatus is operatively defective. - The operation of the apparatus will now be described. A customer who wishes to pay a bill or account by means of a credit card, cheque or other document, is first asked to mount on the
scale 28 of the apparatus. He then inserts his credit card, cheque or document inslot 54 and, if required, deposits inslot 62 the required amount. Thecontrol unit 60 will set register 34 into operation only iflines 58 and 64 are energized, in which case, the weight of the user is transmitted to and recorded in register 34. The latter will print on bothcopies copy 38 of the register slip passes in the photographic viewing area of the. camera. Thecontrol unit 60 sets the camera 50 in operation whereby a picture of the upper body portion of the user is taken together with theslip portion 38. Hence, the photograph will also include the above identified information carried on the slip. Theother copy 36 of the register slip exits at 40 for the customer's use for attaching with a cheque or other document. This copy does not include a photograph of the customer nor identification as to his height. - If the customer removes the credit card or cheque prior to termination of the operation of the apparatus, the latter will stop; it will also stop if the customer comes off the scale since its operations are controlled by
unit 60. - Referring to Figs. 5-7, a second embodiment of the present invention is illustrated and comprises a
housing 110 displaying an inclined front wall having anupper portion 112 and alower portion 114. The housing is supported on a pair oflegs base frame 118. The upperfront wall portion 112 includes a one-way mirror 120 with a reflectiveouter face 122 and a transparentinner face 124. On the transparent inner face of the mirror, a. height;scale 126 is displayed along one side thereof. - Adjacent to the
base 118, a weighingdevice 128 is provided and a connectingcable 130 transmits data pertaining to the weight of the user inside thehousing 110 as further described below. - In Fig. 6, the housing is shown as including an
inner chamber 132 which lodges a receipt register, generally denoted 134. This register dispenses a receipt at anoutlet 136 onfront wall portion 114. The receipt may include the following information in readable characters and/or coded form: the name of the owner of the establishment where the anti-fraud apparatus is located; the time and date of use of the apparatus; a number which corresponds to the location of a photograph on a camera film; and the apparatus number. - Contrary to the embodiment illustrated in Figs. 1-4, a duplicate copy of the receipt is not dispensed by
register 134. - In Fig. 6, a camera is schematically represented at 138.
Block 140 represents an enclosure where the film may be kept until it is necessary to develop the film in order to retrieve information relating to a particular use of the machine. - Block 14.2 represents schematically the electronic circuitry which is required to display on the: inner side of the one-way mirror at 144,. 146, 148, 150 information pertaining to the use and user of the. machine, which information is photographed with the user's upper body. This electronic circuitry displays the information in the form of digits. For example,
digits 144 may represent a number associated with the particular machine whiledigits 146 may give the weight of the user.Digits 148 may represent the location of the photograph taken on the camera film whiledigits 150 may be a number representative of the user of the machine. Hence, when a photograph is taken of the user, all the digitized information appearing on the window frame, including theheight scale 126, is recorded. Such electronic circuitry is relatively simple to devise and a detailed-description thereof is not deemed necessary. Referring to Fig. 5, the front wall ofhousing 110 includes an appropriate slot 152 (similar to that of 54 in the Fig. 1) in which the user must insert his cheque, credit card or like document to set the machine in operation, in a manner similar to that described in connection with Fig. 1, wherein an optical detecting device initiates activation of the various operation of the machine. The front wall of the housing also includes acoin deposit slot 154 and acoin return slot 156 similar to that shown in Fig. 1. - Although the invention has been described with respect: to two forms, it will be. obvious to the man skilled in the art that it may be refined and modified in various ways. For example, a control circuit may be arranged so that it is not necessary to deposit a coin to set the apparatus in operation in cases where this service is free to the customer. Furthermore, a light 160 may be disposed in chamber 13.2 to illuminate the subject through a
transparent glass 162. Also, a controlling circuit may be included to readily identify which part of the apparatus is defective. It is therefore wished to have it understood that the present invention is not limited in interpretation except by the terms of the following claims.
