  • Pneumatic customer terminal for drive-up banking installations
    Patent number: 4004753
    Abstract: The customer terminal in a pneumatic drive-up banking arrangement is provided with an inner chamber into which carriers arrive. The usual valve in the receive tube is replaced with a hinged door at the front of the inner chamber which the weight of the carrier opens, the carrier then rolling down a ramp, formed in part by the door, over the funneled mouth of the send tube to a ledge along the front of the terminal from which it can be picked up by a customer. The teller can independently return the carrier from the ledge by means of a solenoid actuated lever which flips the carrier into the send tube mouth.
