Abstract: Currency note sorting devices and systems, and corresponding methods of identifying and sorting currency notes are described herein. A method for sorting currency notes that includes receiving currency notes, identifying the denomination of the currency notes, and distributing the currency notes to slots of a wallet based on the identified denomination. The wallet slots include staggered braille tabs to aid visual-impaired users of the wallet.

Abstract: A deflection clip and system. The deflection clip includes a rigid cross member having opposite first and second ends. An edge extends therebetween. Substantially parallel first and second flanges extend in a first direction substantially orthogonally from the cross member. The first and second flanges are mounted to the first and second ends respectively. A third flange is mounted to the edge of the cross member and extends in a second direction opposite to the first direction. The first and second flanges are spaced apart a distance substantially equal to the width of a horizontal element such as a track to which at least one vertical stud is slidably mounted so as to slide over exterior surfaces of the element for slidable translation in the first direction of the clip relative to the element. The third flange mounts to upper ends of the stud.

Abstract: A charged particle (e.g. photoelectron) spectrometer is operable in a first mode to produce an energy spectrum relating to the composition of a sample being analysed, and in a second mode to produce a charged particle image of the surface of the sample being analysed. A detector is used to detect charged particles produced in both modes of operation. A method of operation of the spectrometer includes the step of selecting which of said first and second modes to use and the detector being operated accordingly.
