Definitions

  • ABSTRACT An automatic banking unit at a remote customer station having a mechanism to dispense currency in response to the presentation of coded card means for verification and authorization followed by keyboard entries of data necessary to actuate the currency dispensing mechanism from which a selected number of paper money bills is delivered to a rotary cash drawer pocket normally located in a drawer "home currency-receiving position. The drawer then rotates to an open position which permits the customer to remove the currency from the pocket. Upon removal, the drawer returns to a dump position for dumping any object remaining in the pocket. Then the drawer returns to home position, ready for another dispensing cycle of movement.
  • the rotary drawer is equipped with sensor means which detect the presence or ab sence of currency in the drawer pocket so as to signal the fact that currency has been completely removed by a customer when removing currency from the drawer in open position.
  • the drawer is equipped with iocking mechanism to hold the drawer locked in home" position. except during a dispensing cycle of movement; and also is equipped with means to prevent reverse movement of the drawer toward open position during its movement toward dump position.
  • the invention relates to a currency dispenser actuated by a coded card after card verification. and more particularly to a rotary cash drawer construction having a pocket which receives a requested amount of currency from a stored currency supply in the dispenser mechanism of a remote banking unit and delivers the requested currency in the drawer pocket to a location readily accessible for removal by the requesting customer. Also. the invention relates to a currency dispenser cash drawer construction providing maximum security against attack. having a large delivery pocket providing maximum accessibility when open yet protecting the contents of the open pocket against air currents. and which construction may be easily serviced and has minimum possibility of injury to the customer user.
  • Prior currency dispensers have a variety of means for delivering the currency being dispensed to the customer-user.
  • Some currency dispensers have sliding or linearly-movable drawers containing currency dispensed, which drawers are moved to one or more open positions.
  • the drawer In one known movable drawer type, the drawer is delivered to a partially-open position and then is pulled by the customer to a fully-open position to permit the currency therein to be removed by the customer.
  • Another movable drawer type dispenser has a hinged drawer head which must be moved to a hinged-open position by the customer to remove from the drawer the currency being dispensed.
  • prior devices The inability to abort a dispensing cycle in the event of a miscount of currency delivered to the drawer, or a change in the customers request characterizes prior devices.
  • the limitation in the size of a packet of currency that may be delivered through a slot also can be a problem.
  • prior devices involve complications in providing means to detect the presence or absence of an object in the drawer.

  • anything which may have been left in the pocket 38, or placed therein by a customer or an unauthorized person is dumped from the rotor into tray 39.
  • the programming of the equipment disengages the friction motor drive and engages the direct gear drive of the rotor to move the rotor from dump position to home" position. This completes the cycle and renders the equipment ready for the next cash dispensing operation.
  • the mechansim 7 delivers a signal to interrupt the programmed operation and directly energize the friction drive from motor to rotate rotor 23 from the home position of FIG. 15 to the dump" position of FIG. l4, thereby dumping the incorrect amount of money that had been delivered to the pocket 38.
  • the customer may depress a stop button at keyboard 3 which interrupts further operation of the entire money dispensing procedure and signals the rotor control to move the rotor to dump position.
  • the dumping concept of the new rotary cash drawer provides further advantages in that the larger and readily-accessible pocket 38 with a wide opening permits objects other than currency or paper money to be contained therein, such as sacks of banking media, for example, checks, currency and coin to be deposited. Because of this capability, the rotary cash drawer can be used as a depository in which banking media may be deposited in the pocket 38 when the rotor 23 is in open" position and then in its cycle of operation, the material deposited will be dumped at the "dump" position into the tray or other receptacle.
  • Special protective features of the improved mecha nism include the provision of the horizontal rib I09 in the liner base wall which tilts any paper currency off of a vertical position, when rotor 23 is in open position, and which otherwise might have laid flat on the liner wall; so that it falls over by gravity when the rotor 23 is in the open" position of FIG. [3 and comes to rest on the liner bottom wall of the open pocket 38.

  • the deadlocking pin 71 is inaccessible from the exterior of the housing of the remote unit 1 and thus performs the same function as the bolt work for safes or vault doors.
  • the noback" pawl and ratchet mechanism 103-]02 prevents the rotor from being backed away to an open" position when the gear drive is disengaged and the rotor is driven by its friction drive away from open" position.
  • Another safeguard characterizing the improved mechanism is the light beam sensor systems which effectively signal or sense the presence or absence of objects in the pocket when in open" position. This is accomplished in a very simple manner involving no moving parts requiring adjustment, servicing and upkeep other than electric eye bulbs or photocells.
  • a further safeguard to the programmed operation 01 the rotary cash drawer involves the sensor control plate 75, its printed circuit, its optical cells 78, 79 and 80, and the optical interrupting fingers 82 and 84.
