Abstract: A cross-support assembly extends between and connects two generally parallel lifting arms of a working machine. A front end of the lifting arms is connectable with an implement. A back end of the lifting arms is pivotably connectable with a front unit of the working machine. The cross-support assembly provides an axis of vision through the cross-support assembly for at least two different lifting positions of the lifting arms by having an opening in the cross-support assembly.

Abstract: A retail kiosk includes a product fulfillment portion and a product display portion. The product fulfillment portion includes a cylindrical shell having an end with a continuous, circular edge. The product display portion includes a cylindrical shell having an end with a continuous, circular edge. The continuous, circular edge of the product fulfillment portion is out of alignment with the continuous, circular edge of the product display portion when the retail kiosk is deployed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a keyboard (1) for data input, particularly a POS keyboard (1), with a key field (2) and at least one card reading device (6), for the reading of data from a card (13) provided with data, whereby the device (6) has a shaft (12), into which the card (13) can be inserted and in which the card (13) can be held, whereby the card reading device (6) is integrated pivotably into a surface (8) of the housing (9) of the keyboard (1).

Abstract: An automated banking machine includes a generally one-piece polymer frame. Transaction function devices such as an input device, a display screen, and a sheet dispenser, are supported on the frame. A generally one-piece polymer body is operatively engaged relative to the frame and extends in generally surrounding relation of the input device and display screen. The body includes at least one opening such that the display screen is visible and the input device is accessible through the body.

Abstract: Apparatus is disclosed for moving an automatic teller machine and the like between an operational position and a servicing position to provide access to the back of the machine for servicing. The apparatus essentially comprises a stationary frame and a moving carriage supported by the frame. In the operational position, the front end of the carriage is coextensive with the front end of the frame. In the servicing position, however, the front end of the carriage is cantilevered beyond the front end of the frame. The carriage may also be telescopic such that a telescoping member is contained in the carriage to allow the carriage more movement. In order to move and support the carriage, especially in the servicing position, there is a shaft freely rotatable in a pair of bearings at the front end of the frame on which the carriage rides. The back end of the carriage rides within the frame's rails, which prevent the carriage from moving up or down but otherwise freely allow lateral movement.

Abstract: An automated bank teller machine (ATM) is provided which is characteristically easy to configure, regardless of whether a replenish-from-the-front (RFTF) configuration or a replenish-from-the-rear (RFTR) configuration is chosen. In particular, the ATM according to the present invention includes a security chest module, a top module, and an interface module. These components are common to both configurations can be built and stored in advance, and can be thereafter configured as desired. In another embodiment, an ATM is provided that permits more than one customer to use the ATM at the same time.

Abstract: A secure servicing system for an automatic teller machine (ATM) or similar machine. An ATM is mounted on a rotatable/translatable baseplate in a kiosk with the operating side flush with an opening in the kiosk. By rotating and translating the baseplate, the ATM operating side is moved to a secure space inside the kiosk, providing access through a kiosk door for service. A blank side at least partially fills the opening. The baseplate is mounted on rollers and rotated by a driven bar connected between the baseplate and kiosk floor. An idler bar similarly connected guides translation of the baseplate during rotation. A sliding door, actuated by the baseplate translation idler bar, fills any space between one of the sides and the edge of the kiosk opening, where the side is narrower than the opening. A locking mechanism is provided to releasably lock the baseplate in either position. The kiosk is thus secure during service, adding of cash, when out of service, etc.

Abstract: A front access automatic teller machine security enclosure that includes a hollow parallelepiped-shaped rear portion, a hollow parallelepiped-shaped front portion, a service door, and a security shield. The front portion is smaller than the rear portion and is in telescopic communication therewith. The front portion has an extended position where it is fully extended from the rear portion and a retracted position where it is fully retracted in the rear portion. When the front portion is in the extended position the service door can be opened and the front access automatic teller machine can be serviced. When the front portion is in the retracted position the service door can not be opened. When the front portion is in the retracted position the security shield of the front of the hollow parallelepiped-shaped front portion is clear of the aperture of the front wall of the front portion and the front access automatic teller machine enters the aperture and is accessible by a customer.

Abstract: A maintenance enclosure for an automatic teller machine having an operable front panel and an openable service panel is provided. The enclosure consists of a stationary enclosure about three sides of the automatic teller machine so that the operable front panel can extend through one portion of the stationary enclosure, while the openable service panel can extend into the stationary enclosure. An expandable enclosure is affixed to the open portion of the stationary enclosure to close off the automatic teller machine so that when the automatic teller machine is in use the expandable enclosure is normally folded inwardly towards the stationary enclosure to fit the smallest possible area. A door which opens inwardly is hinged in the expandable enclosure so that when the automatic teller machine is to be repaired the expandable enclosure and the door opened to gain access to the openable service panel.

Abstract: A sheet dealing apparatus feeds sheets, received within the apparatus, to a user through a sheet delivery portion by an operation of the user or receives the sheets into the sheet dealing apparatus from the user. Also, this operation may be similarly applied to the sheet delivery mode between the sheet dealing apparatus and another sheet dealing apparatus. The sheet delivery portion is contructed so as to be retractable or extensible with respect to a body of the apparatus. A sheet delivery window formed at the delivery portion is variable in position as necessary.
