A broken Ubuntu boot manager cannot boot into your Ubuntu system. If only the word "GRUB" appears with no other options when you boot your computer, Ubuntu's boot manager is broken. Fix Ubuntu's GRUB 2 boot manager by booting your computer with a Ubuntu Live CD. Once the Live CD desktop environment loads, repair the boot manager with a few commands.
Things You'll Need
- Ubuntu Live CD
Boot into the Ubuntu Live CD. Place the Live CD into your computer's disc drive and restart the computer. Boot the Live CD in English by hitting "Enter" when asked for a language.
Open the Terminal application. Click "Applications" in the upper left corner of the screen when the desktop loads. Hover your mouse over "Accessories," then click "Terminal."
Identify the partition installed with Ubuntu. Type "sudo fdisk -l" into the Terminal window, then hit "Enter." See partition labels by typing "sudo blkid" and hitting "Enter." The Ubuntu partition is likely the largest partition. "/dev/sda1" is the Ubuntu partition on most systems.
Mount the Ubuntu partition. Type "sudo mount /dev/sdX# /mnt", replacing "X#" with the Ubuntu partition's code, then press "Enter." For example, "/dev/sda1" is the Ubuntu partition for most users.
Fix Ubuntu's boot manager. Reinstall the boot manager by typing "sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/ /dev/sdX", replacing "X" with the Ubuntu drive's letter, and then hitting "Enter." For example, "/dev/sda" is the Ubuntu drive for most users.
Restart the computer into your Ubuntu system. Click the shutdown icon in the upper-right corner of your screen, then click "Restart." Confirm your intention by clicking "Restart" in the prompt window. Remove the Ubuntu Live CD from your disc drive when prompted, then close the drive and hit "Enter."
Login to your Ubuntu system. Type your username, hit "Enter," then type your password and hit "Enter."
Update the boot manager menu. Open the Terminal application by clicking "Applications" in the upper-left corner, clicking "Accessories," and then clicking "Terminal." Run the boot manager update command by typing "sudo update-grub" and hitting "Enter." Authenticate yourself by typing your password if prompted, then hitting "Enter."
Tips & Warnings
- Ubuntu's boot manager breaks if you install Windows after Ubuntu. Install Ubuntu after Windows in the future; this will ensure the GRUB 2 boot manager does not break.

Assessing the Effectiveness of Landscape Fuel Treatments on Fire Growth and Behavior
Abstract:This article presents a methodology for assessing the effectiveness of landscape fuel treatments on fire growth and behavior in southern Utah. Treatment areas were selected by fire managers from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) based on the threat of fire to communities and the need for range and wildlife improvement. A fire density grid was derived from the BLM's fire start layer to identify historically high ignition areas. FireFamily Plus was used to summarize and analyze historical weather and calculate seasonal severity and percentile reports. Information from FireFamily was used in FARSITE and FlamMap to model pre- and posttreatment effects on fire growth, spotting, fireline intensity, surface flame length, and the occurrence of crown fire. This procedure provides managers with a quantitative measure of treatment effectiveness as well as spatial output that can be used for analyzing fuel treatment effectiveness, burn plan development, National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) documentation, public education, etc.

Archiving emails in Gmail - the easiest way to clear the list of members without the risk to delete the messages.
This function allows you to remove individual letters or conversations in the archive while leaving them in the mailbox to find and use when needed.
Archiving messages - a specialfeature that allows you to use Gmail e-mail to all users. Its essence is to move a specific message, the group of letters in a special archive. As a result, the list of incoming mail promptly cleared. The essential difference between this option from the usual messages placed in the cart or removal is their permanent preservation in the mailbox. Archived emails remain fully searchable, reading, other use, which eliminates the risk of deletion or loss of relevant information.
Archive messages in Gmail simply,This operation takes a few seconds any user. So, if you want to send one letter in the archives of his own box, open the page with the list of messages. On the page need to put a tick in front of the letter of interest, then click on "Archive" at the top of the page. You can also simply open the message, then press the indicated button. Subsequently, a letter can be found in the "Archive" or by using the search on the mailbox.
It is also easy to back up severalmessages in your own Gmail inbox. To do this, you must list all messages intended to be placed in the archive page. To determine the above list, you can use the most accurate search in the mailbox, or select all the letters, marked with a specific label. After the formation of the list should establish a tick in the top of the page, which will cause release of all outstanding letters on it. If you accidentally hit list the messages that are used continuously, it is possible to remove from them the mark. and then press the button "Archive", with the result that all selected messages are moved to the archive.
At any moment the user can findarchived message using the usual search for the mailbox. Also archived conversations again appear in your inbox when a new response from the respective user. It must be remembered that the letters in the archive are kept indefinitely, since the archive itself is not an analogue of the basket, from which all the information is permanently deleted after a certain period of time. That is why this is a popular feature.

Bought this the week after I adopted a new puppy. At the start this machine was great, powerful and easy to use, great for spot cleaning after my puppy. However, after about 6months I noticed that when I used it all the water from the clean tank came out of the bottom. I made sure the lids were on correctly, the straws in the tanks weren't obstructed, but it still happened. I took it back to the vacuum cleaner store where I bought it and they said I was doing something wrong. In the end I gave up and left it in the basement. Recently (a year later) I tried it again. Now I realize that it only leaks when it is turned on and after the solution trigger is pressed and released -- Then you get to watch the clean water level drop to nothing as it all drains into the bottom of the machine. I opened the bottom and the connections are just hard plastics, no rubber seals. No wonder it leaks! Cheaply made and now useless as it is out of warranty. Won't buy Hoover again.
We are sorry to hear about the issue you are having with your cleaner! Please contact our Customer Care Department at 1-800-944-9200, 8am - 7pm, M-F EST for further assistance.
I bought this machine yesterday to clean up some dingy carpet areas (even though the carpet is to be replaced soon) that I just hated looking at - I did two passes in front of the sofa because it seems to be a particularly naff area, even though we do not wear shoes in the house, desert living can be very dusty and dirty - after the first pass with the cleaner - and yes - on my hands and knees - I could see a difference, and then after the second pass, it was that much cleaner. I did the area in front of the loveseat and that came instantly clean. I then went around to some of the spots on the carpet and got those up as well. Plan to take some before and after photos today of other dingy spots, particularly at the entranceway to the bedroom. It was a good workout, but well worth the effort The dirty water was just that...DIRTY!!! EWWWW!!!
I purchased this almost a year ago and LOVED it. It was the perfect size for storing in my tiny apartment and worked well. Not only was I able to clean carpet and pet accidents, but it was mobile enough to clean my furniture, stairs, and car interior.
HOWEVER, the clean water cap broke recently, Hoover has DISCONTINUED it and the parts are no longer available through them, or a third party. Instead of purchasing a $4 part, I will now be forced to purchase an entirely new unit. I don't have the best income and can not afford to do this every time something breaks. If I had known the product was going to be discontinued I would never have purchased it. I can't even describe how sad and frustrated I am.
Why are you still selling this with NO PRODUCT SUPPORT?!
Hi Sophie,
We apologize for not having that part in stock anymore. We did find a place that has it in stock. http://bit.ly/1JBRv39. The part # is 2VM1119000 if you would like to find an alternate supplier. Hope this helps!
Very poorly built and basically useless. This worked for a few months then it starting leaking all of the clean water into the bottom of the machine, then on to my carpet. When I took it back to the store where I bought it, they told me I was doing something wrong. I tried again a few times, made sure the straw wasn't blocked, the water wasn't too hot, the lid was on tight - no leaks until I turned on the machine, then all the clean water drained into the bottom. I gave up and stuffed it in the basement. I recently pulled it out to try again before Christmas. I took the bottom off to see what was happening. I turned it on and after a few seconds the clean water came pouring through 3 (or so) various holes. Obviously not operator error! Save your money.
We appreciate the comments about your cleaner and understand your frustration. Your cleaner has a manufactures defect warranty. Visit http://hoover.com/locator/ for listing of local warranty service dealers for assistance or contact our Customer Care Department by calling 1-800-944-9200. Thank you!
I received this item as a gift. The sprayer does not work properly. I did as the instructions said and primed the pump and right off the bat it sprayed once and don't spray anymore. I do like the size and features, however I wish it worked.
Hi Brendaff! Oh no, your Spot Scrubber® Multi-Surface Cleaner should run better than this. We want to help. Please ensure the clean water tank has been aligned all the way into the unit otherwise it will not dispense properly. Once aligned pump the trigger 30 times, then hold it down for 30 seconds and repeat. Once completed the unit should begin to dispense. If further assistance is needed feel free to give us a call at 1-800-944-9200 M-F from 8am-6pm EST. We're here for you!
We purchased this unit with the hopes of being able to clean the interior of my car after having a gallon of pumpkin soup spill on the floor boards. It did fine where the attachments were able to fit, but unfortunately there is no attachment for cleaning the small areas under my seat. We are going to try again next weekend after taking the seat out, but I am not very hopefull. Not sure if I am going to keep it around or not. If there were extra accessories we could purchase that would make this a little more useful around the house, such as a longer hose and different heads, it would be worth it. We are going to give the shower stall a going over, but I suspect that the short hose will make that a challenge as well.
I think the folks here with negative reviews are a littly nuts either that or they simply expect something to do something it is not intended to do. This is a small unit and is perfect for cleaning small areas, upholstry, and I even cleaned my mattress with it (now was that surprising and gross...I reccomend everyone do that). There is no moveable brushes, its basically a sprayer and a wet vac in one. It does suck the dirt out of what it is intended for and has been a savior for quick cleanups like cat vomit, etc ( I know, gross, sorry!) Either way, I HIGHLY reccomend this product if you need it for small spaces, everyday spills, pet messes, or just dont have the space for a large unit and want to do small areas.
I purchased this product over 2 years ago and have had issues from the very first use. It leaks water from the bottom, dribbles water from the hose, leaks water from the hose, sometimes water does not spray from the hose (replacing hose) , The caps on the water canisters crack easily (had to replace twice), and the dirty water dispenser does not hold much water. I am on Hoover's site again ordering my second round of replacement parts hoping this will resolve some of my issues. I wish I read the reviews before purchasing this produce and had not lost my receipt. I have probably only used the cleaner a total of 5 times in the last two years.
Hi AnnieA, we want to help but we'll need to ask you a couple of quick questions. We've sent you a private email just now so that we can better assist you. Thanks!
I bought this 2 or so months ago and was happy at first (even though it does leak) but now my problem is it will no longer spray. I tried the hot water and vinegar solution as suggested in another comment, it did not work. Can anyone please help on another solution that might help? I am stuck with a cleaner that will not work!
Hi littlelady15! Your Spot Scrubber® Multi-Surface Cleaner should release water when the trigger is pressed. We want to help. Please fill the water tank with warm water only and turn the unit on. Next, pump the trigger 30x and then hold it down for 30 seconds. Water should begin to dispense. If not repeat pumping the trigger until a steady flow is established. If further assistance is needed feel free to give us a call at 1-800-321-1134 (M-F 8a-6p EST). We're here for you!
I purchased this portable cleaner yesterday (8/19/2013) and used it last night for the first time.
After the first use I noticed it was leaking from the bottom of the unit. Upon further inspection I found the source of the leak to be the clean water tank cap / filler neck. It appears the filler neck of the clean water tank is not perfectly flat and when the cap is screwed on there is a portion of the neck that is not covered by the gasket inside the cap... Presto, instant leaks when inserted into the main unit body. Hopefully the repair center will cover this under warranty.
Hi DMEngineer, your Spot Scrubber should not be leaking at all during use. We'd like to get some more information on it. We're sending you a private email now so that we can better assist you. Thanks so much!
I think one of the parts from this machine was mistakenly thrown out, when we couldn't figure out where it had come from.
Now, when I want to purchase a replacement part, I find that it is not available. I can't even find a helpful photo and name of the part, so that I can confirm what part to look for. I would like to send this one back to Hoover, and have them send me a replacement machine, at no cost to me, for my trouble.
Hi Mommy911! Replacement parts should be available and we want to help resolve this matter for you. We'll be reaching out to you privately, we need just a bit more information. Thank you!
I orginally got this product shortly after we got our first puppy 2 1/2 years ago. It works great. A little accident on the carpet or couch.. NO problem clean it up right away and you would never know it was even there. I now have 3 dogs and 3 boys, and a white carpet! You would never know I had dogs and kids!! I love the product it works well. The only problem I have had with it leaking out of the bottom was that the clean water cap had been screwed on to tight and cracked.. I am ordering a replacement for it now. Thanks Hoover!
Although I need a full size unit, I live in a very small house with no rrom to store it. I figured that something like this I could use inbetween cleans (borrowing a family member's full size) for spot cleanings, and mud by the sliders, as well as upholstry. I couldn't believe that this small unit did so much. Although it can be a little awkward with the hose being a little short and yes the large spray pattern, but the unit does work, and work well. I couldn't believe just how much dirt was hiding on my sofa that I vaccuum off weekly...actually it was kind of gross. I also got on my hands and knees and did the small spots on the floor that were inaccesable to the large hoover unit I borrowed from my folks. I see this strange negative reviews about leaking...NO the prodcut does not leak. I am sure if you sont close the clean water bottle maybe it could leak a little bit but there is not much else that could cause it to leak besides too much soap or overfillling the dirty chamber. Also, why people complain that it takes too much work to get stains out. People, this is a compact unit that sprays and sucks! There are no roating heads, how could there be on a hand held unit so yes, this is what you are buying. Overall I am very happy with the unit and it does everything it promises...the squegee use in the bathroom is a little messy and I think kaboom and paper towels would do a better job there, but for upholstry and small carpet areas, this does the trick!
I have been using this for over two years. I never had it leak from the bottom like other reviews unless you go over the limit it can hold. The biggest problem is that you can not clean it and it stinks. I have sucked bleach into it I have soaked the nozzle in bleach and I can not keep it from smelling like a sewer. I have used everything to clean it out including gun cleaning tools, but still can not reach areas. I would recommend it if you want a great product for about a year tops.
Hi Solphins, we wouldn't recommend using bleach or any other fume-inducing agent to clean out our products. We'd recommend filling a bucket full of hot tap water and Hoover brand detergent and placing the head of the hand tool into that bucket to extract that water/detergent through the tubing and into your recovery tank. Let us know if you need any more help. Thanks so much!
Bought this to replace my Little Green Machine, which was also discontinued. Fresh water fill cap cracked on the SpotScrubber, making it impossible to use. Parts are not available. I am pretty irritated to have spent the money on this piece of junk. Also, dirty water reservoir stinks real bad and the tank had always been rinsed out after each use. Save your money......
Hi Helen 07! We totally understand that replacement parts should be at your disposal and that you're not satisfied with your purchase. We'd like to spare a few tips to help alleviate the smell from your reservoir tank!
After each use, it's important to rinse the tank with warm water and allow it to air dry for a complete 24 hours. Failure to do this will cause mildew and other smells to build up which can become hard to get rid of.
If you're searching for replacement parts, you may be able to locate them at one of our Authorized Hoover Service Centers. Visit this link: http://hoover.com/locator/ to locate one neareast you. Hope this helps!
I am happy with this product overall, but now that it has been used the dirty water tank is nasty inside and smells very bad. I tried running scalding hot water into it to break up the dirty buildup that is on the inside of the tank; however it will NOT come out. Now when I turn the unit on to use it it smells!! I have emptied the dirty water in between each use and I am not sure what can be done.
I am happy with the suction on this machine. It does leak a bit on the hose where I hold it, but I can deal with that. My biggest problem is sometimes the clean water won't spray. I just turned it on and it was working, then I refilled the tank and it was still working fine. Refilled the tank a second time, now it won't spray and I'm in the middle of cleaning my couch.
Hi Monica415, if you're using detergent with this machine, it is possible that the inner tubing is clogged with some dry suds from previous uses.
Give this a try:
1. Add hot water with a little bit of vinegar to the clean water tank
2. Turn the machine on
3. Squeeze and hold the handle trigger for about 60 seconds.
This should flush the tubing clean and get your spot scrubber working for you again. Let us know if you need any more help. We're happy to help, always. Thanks so much!
The steamer is ok as of compact, easy to use, and move around . The machine it self is a very fragile piece . The hose was the first to ware out not even 4 times using it . Needs better parts so it last longer and a parts list that is available and not sold out . This is an F on my list of cleaning products .
We apologize about the issues you are having with your cleaner and understand your frustration. If for any reason parts are not available online, our Customer Care Department can direct you to the nearest dealer and inform you when parts will be available. Please contact our Customer Care Department at 1-800-944-9200. Thank you!
My only complaint about this product is that it leaks from the bottom. Finish cleaning a spot to find dirty foam where you had the unit sitting. And no, neither the clean nor dirty containers were overfilled. And no, I didn't use over the recommended amount of cleaning solution.
We are sorry to hear about the issue with your cleaner. When used and maintained in normal household use with Hoover branded solutions and detergents it is warranted against original defects in material and workmanship for 1 year. Please visit http://hoover.com/locator/ for a listing of service dealers for assistance, or call our Customer Care Department at 1-800-944-9200.
The suction is not good at all! Nothing like the Little Green Machine I had that got worn out from years of use,I bought this to replace it. The hose is stiff and not flexible much at all. I am considering a refund and going back to what I know works well.
No suction can indicate one of several things. It can mean that the dirty water tank was installed incorrectly, that the dirty water tank filter is clogged or that the dirty water tank door was installed incorrectly. Please refer to your manual or call our Customer Care group to see if any of these three things are the issue. Our Customer Care group can be reached at 1-800-944-9200, Monday-Friday 8am-7pm EST.

The design had to incorporate the company's new phone and tablet app for customers to discover 500 drinks recipes featuring the product on offer. Retail shoppers today favour a visual and interactive experience when they visit a store and innovative POS not only attracts customers and enables them to interact but also persuades them to buy.
The challenge was to design and build a high-quality, illuminated construction with an integrated touch screen that was compact enough to fit into any retail store but still create an impact and attract attention. Using Smurfit Kappa's 3D design solution, its designers created a full prototype before going into production.
The unique units were constructed using 16mm re-board printed on an Inca Onset S40i flatbed UV inkjet printer. The six-colour printer produces superb quality display graphics economically at throughput speeds of up to 560 sqm/hr, equivalent to 112 full bed sheets/hr (3.14 x 1.6m) and onto substrates up to 50mm (2 in) thick.
The completed units featured built-in coloured LED strip lighting to illuminate the product, with all the wires hidden in the back panels, and a touch screen tablet incorporated into the head board, fully loaded with the new product app.
Simon Kelly, Design Supervisor, Smurfit Kappa says: "This brief really inspired us to think outside of the box and design a unique and innovative display unit that met all the client's requirements. We were delighted with the results and the client was very happy – the displays drew attention to the new app, which helped increase product sales."
Smurfit Kappa's efforts on this project were also rewarded with an Inca IDEAs award for its entry in the Interactive Display category. Judge commented: "Good use of print, materials, lighting and a tablet."

Israel's attempts to placate international opinion with cookies and cupcakes for Gaza is a sure sign of how isolated it has become. The United States may have shielded it from a UN-led inquiry into the flotilla raid but the price it seems set to extract is the lifting of the Gaza blockade.
The blockade has long since become indefensible. Israeli commentators, while turning their ire on the military commanders who allowed the flotilla fiasco to happen, have also voiced their anger over the "national disgrace" that is the list of goods banned from Gaza.

This invention relates to an apparatus for distinguishing and discriminating coins electronically.
In the prior art, various types of throw-into-type coin discriminators have been developed. For example, as disclosed in the specification of Japanese patent application 8-174064 (see Japanese patent disclosure 9-319913) by this applicant. In the throw-into-type coin discriminator as shown in FIG. 6, various kinds or classifications of coins are fed into a hopper 9 which is in the shape of a trumpet. These coins pass through a long hole open in the bottom of the hopper 9 and are conveyed out of the hopper by an endless flat belt. The width of the hole in the bottom of the hopper 9 is formed taking into account the diameter of the largest coin to be handled, for example, a 500 Yen coin. Therefore, the various classifications of coins thrown into the hopper 9 are conveyed in a row. The plurality of coins conveyed in the row is leveled so that there may be no overlap or stacking of coins by an inverse roller 13 which rotates in reverse to the direction of travel of the flat belt. The coins flattened in the row on the conveyer from the hopper 9 are deposited onto another endless flat belt 7. Since this flat belt 7 travels at faster velocity than the first flat belt, the coins which have been flattened or unstacked are conveyed and separated by the second flat belt 7, the coins having been singularized or placed on the belt one by one. Each coin is dropped from the flat belt 7 one by one into the coin selector 20 through the slot hole 27 such that the coins are dropped in a standing up condition, i.e. on edge. The coin drops inside the selector 20 according to its weight and type having previously been judged electronically as hereinafter described.
With continuing reference to FIG. 6, the coin is sent from the selector 20 dropping by its weight as arrives along a long rail 31 in a standing up, on edge condition.
The invention is developed for the purpose of providing an integration of means to align thrown-into coins, means to distinguish the authenticity and type or classification of the coins, and means to receive an authentic coin and to reject the counterfeit coin. In other words, the invention has a purpose to align different kinds of thrown-into coins, distinguish the authenticity and money type of each coin and reject counterfeit coins while receiving authentic coins.
Toward this end, a coin discriminator apparatus is set forth which includes a housing having at one end a hopper to receive coins. A conveyer is adapted to convey coins from the hopper to a coin handling mechanism. Means are provided to singularize the coins on the conveyer; that is, position them on the conveyer in a row, one by one. Sensors are disposed to sense, for coins as they are conveyed toward the coin handling mechanism, at least one physical aspect of each coin to determine one class of coins from another. For example, the sensors may be adapted to sense the diameter, thickness and material of composition of the coins as they are conveyed. At the coin handling mechanism, a coin determined to be of one class, e.g. authentic, is directed in a first direction, and a coin determined to be of another class, e.g. counterfeit, is directed in a second direction. For example, a coin determined to authentic would be directed into the selector 20 (FIG. 6) for sorting or further discrimination.
These and other features and advantages will become appreciated as the same becomes better understood with reference to the specification, claims and drawings wherein:
FIG. 1 is a plan view of one embodiment of the apparatus according to the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a front section view of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a front elevation view showing the usual operating condition of the apparatus of FIG. 2;
FIG. 4 is a front elevation view showing another operation condition of the apparatus of FIG. 2;
FIG. 5 is a right side view of the apparatus of FIG. 4; and
FIG. 6 is an overall view of a prior art device incorporating a prior art discriminating device.
Turning to the drawings, the throw-into-type coin discriminator is shown. The main body of the discriminator is large and is formed in the shape of a long box. On the left of the long box shape, a hopper 11, which may be U-shaped is provided. The coins to be discriminated are thrown into the hopper 11. An endless belt 12 at the bottom of the hopper 11 has a large width and is tensioned at the bottom of the hopper 11. As shown on the drawings, the thrown-into-coins are conveyed rightwardly. While the details of the belt 12 are not shown, it is to be understood that it is rotated by a motor 11 which can rotate in forward and reverse directions.
Two sensors 14 for coin or metal are arranged under the coin conveying surface of the belt 12 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. That is, if a coin is thrown into the hopper 11, any one of the two sensors 14 will detect the coin and will output a start signal to the motor 13. The motor 13 starts as a result of the start signal and as a result the belt 12 is actuated and the coins will be conveyed rightwardly as shown in the drawings from the hopper 11. The edge 11A of the lower opening of the hopper 11 forms a guide which is slanted to the travel direction of the belt 12 and aligns the coins in a row as a result.
On the upper part of the coin discriminator, i.e. on the right end of the belt 12 (FIGS. 1 and 2) a reverse roller 15 is provided. The roller 15 unstacks and breaks down overlapping coins on the belt 12 and puts the coins in a row in sheet form on the belt 12.
Near the right side upper part of the coin discriminator near the right end of the belt 12, an endless second belt 16 having a large width is tensioned and the coins are conveyed rightwardly thereby as shown in the drawings. The second belt 16 is rotated normally by a motor 17 the details of which have been omitted herein. The belt velocity of the second belt 16 is faster than the velocity of the belt 12. As a result, the coins which where in a row and sheet on belt 12 are singularized and separated onto the second belt 16 to be arranged one by one.
Under the coin conveying surface of the second belt 16 on one side a discriminator, sensors 18 are arranged in four locations. On the other side of the discriminator sensors 18 are arranged in a like fashion in a cover 19 for the second belt 16 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. These four discriminating sensors 18 are for distinguishing the diameter, thickness and two kinds of materials or two metals of the coins being conveyed.
To direct the coins on the second belt 16 to the sensors 18, a diagonal reference line 70 is formed on the upper surface of the second belt 16. The reference line 70 guides the coins on the second belt 16 as they approach the discriminating sensors 18. The reference line 70 provides a staggered groove (not shown) for example, on the interior of the cover to direct and align the coins to direct and align the coins to pass for sensing by the sensors 18.
Near the right end of the second belt 16, a long and slender selection roller 21 is provided. This selection roller 21 is operated by whether the coin is genuine or counterfeit. It is operated to discriminate the coins by a solenoid 24 and a pivot arm 22 for a pivot length 23. The selection roller 21 need not be a roller and may be in any other form which can guide an authentic coin in a first direction. At the right hand side of the selection roller 21 a small, thick sending roller 25 is arranged. The sending roller 25 sends out a genuine coin from the right hand side to the selector 20. If the coin is determined to be counterfeit, the second roller 25 becomes a stop body.
Disposed under the selection roller 21 is a rejection board 26 (FIG. 5) which is diagonally arranged. The rejection board 26 is usually projected as shown on the drawings and is drawn into the apparatus by a solenoid (not shown) when it is required to direct a rejected, counterfeit coin.
Additionally, at the upper and lower positions near the sending roller 25 are two sets of sensors 27 for detecting the passage of an authentic coin. The two sets of sensors 29 for detecting the passage of a counterfeit coin are arranged at the right and left positions under the sending roller 25. The sensors 27 and 29 have two sets, respectively. Therefore, a passage of a perforated coin, for example, a 5 Yen coin or a 50 Yen coin, is detected correctly by means of two light output beams of the sensors 27 and 29. In other words, in the case of perforated coins, since two pulses may be outputted by the sensors 27 and 29, this can be compensated with another beam.
The operation of the discriminator according to the present invention will now be described.
First, a multiple variety of coins are fed into the hopper 11. When the coins are fed into the hopper 11, the movement of the belt 12 is started and the coins will be conveyed in a row by the open edge 11A toward the sending roller 25. With reference to FIG. 3 an authentic coin C which was placed in the hopper 11, is guided in a standing up, on edge condition past the rejection board 26 which has been withdrawn to the selector 20. As shown by the broken lines in FIG. 5, the authentic coin collides with an inclined surface 28 to be directed in a first direction out to the left hand side of the discriminator. If the coin is determined to be counterfeit, as shown in FIG. 4, the rejection board 26 is positioned and the solenoid 24 is actuated to manipulate the link for the sending roller 25 whereupon the counterfeit coin C (FIG. 4) drops to contact the rejection board 26 which directs the counterfeit coin in a second direction such as for collection or the like. After the determined counterfeit coin is rejected, and assuming that the next coin in order is determined to be genuine, the solenoid 24 is actuated to reposition the sending roller 25 to direct the genuine coin in the first direction.
As can be appreciated, the invention can align several kinds of inserted coins and further can distinguish between the authenticity and money type of each coin.
While I have shown and described certain embodiments of the present invention, it is to be understood that it is subject to many modifications and changes not departing from the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
