Abstract: Described herein are automated banking machine cassette modules and cassettes. The cassette module may include but is not limited to a divert cassette positioned for easy access and a light pipe system for detecting when sheets are entering or leaving a cassette. The cassette may include but Is not limited to a cassette with an ink staining that does not reduce the capacity of the cassette, a torsion spring assembly coupled with a push plate in a cassette, a thumper and feed wheel assembly, and a method of assembling a thumper and feed wheel assembly that provides for proper timing of the feed wheels with the thumper wheels.

Abstract: Systems and methods of the invention relate to reducing a number of jams that can occur in an automated teller machine with the employment of a moveable platen that increases a width of a channel for documents. A document analysis area can receive a document via a first transport path, wherein the document analysis area can include a channel in which the document travels to enable at least one scan component to capture an image of the document. The channel is created by one or more platen. The one or more platen can be movable to increase the width of the channel so as to allow documents to pass-through the document analysis area without causing a jam or error for the automated teller machine.

Abstract: A connector is fastened to a central portion of a connector bracket adjacent a slot in a slotted bracket to provide a number of electrical circuits extending through the slot. A first end of the connector bracket is fastened to the slotted bracket by means of a screw. The central portion of the connector bracket extends inwardly along the slotted card bracket, adjacent the slot, which the central portion overlaps. An end tab of the card bracket, opposite the first end thereof, extends outwardly along a part of the slotted card bracket, which itself extends from an end of the slot.

Abstract: A cover assembly with a rectangular cover for covering an opening at a predetermined height in a receiving part formed by stamping and bending a sheet of material with the opening formed in the receiving part. The rectangular cover with a first pair of opposite sides and a second pair of opposite sides, with the second pair of opposite sides have been formed to create a side wall of a given height with a tab finger. Two or more Z-shaped side walls of a predetermined height are formed around the opening of the receiving member. The Z-shaped side walls receive the first pair of opposite side of the rectangular cover. A tab opening is formed in the receiving member. The tab opening receives the tab finger of the rectangular cover. The side wall of the rectangular cover formed so that the given height of the side wall is less than the predetermined height of the two Z-shaped side walls so as to enclose a region of the opening of the receiving member with the flange of the rectangular cover therewith.

Abstract: The locking member of a ZIF socket, which is movable between a locked position, in which high contact forces are present between contact springs within the socket and pins extending from an electronic module into the socket, and an unlocked position, in which the pins are released from the contact springs, is held in the locked position by means of a portion of a clamping spring inserted into a gap between the locking member and a portion of the housing of the ZIF socket. The clamping spring also holds a heat sink in place on the electronic module.

Abstract: A shielding strip is provided for a computer including an electrically conductive housing and a non-conductive drive mounting structure situated within the housing. The drive mounting structure includes a plurality of bays which communicate with an opening in the housing. An electrically conductive retainer is situated over the opening to hold the disk drives in the bays. The shielding strip includes a longitudinal main portion extending along a first side of the housing adjacent the opening and situated between the first side of the housing and the drive mounting structure. The shielding strip further includes a plurality of spring structures extending laterally away from the main portion and toward the bays, each of such spring structures including a first spring portion for contacting a conductive portion of a disk drive mounted in a respective bay and a second spring portion for contacting the retainer.
