Patent number: 12202702Abstract: A sensing apparatus can be configured to detect an edge of a paper that is received by an automated transaction machine (ATM). The paper can move along a path located inside the ATM, the path having opposite first and second sides. The sensing apparatus can include a light emitter and a light detector on the first side of the path, with the light emitter positioned so that it can emit light across the path to the second side. The light detector can be configured to detect light from the light emitter and can emit a signal corresponding to an amount of detected light. The sensing apparatus can also include a control circuit that can control a flow of power to the light emitter, and the control circuit can also receive the signal emitted by the sensor.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2023Date of Patent: January 21, 2025Assignee: DIEBOLD NIXDORF INCORPORATEDInventors: David Z Few, Boley Clinton, Marko Savcic, Michael J Harty, Ken Turocy, Thomas A Vankirk, Aaron Christopher Graham, David Nikkel, Jasen James Smolk, William Daniel Beskitt

Patent number: 11615387Abstract: Described in example embodiments herein are techniques for implementing an automated banking machine such as an ATM. An example embodiments, tracks the flow of a note through an ATM. Another embodiment corrects errors detected during a note flow. Some embodiments are in the form of security protocols for communications or other communication protocols, or techniques for monitoring devices operating in the ATM. Yet another example embodiment is directed to security of a currency cassette. Still yet another embodiment is directed to detecting tampering of the ATM's gate and/or shuttle. Yet still another embodiment determines if notes in a shuttle were delivered.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2018Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: Diebold Nixdorf IncorporatedInventors: David Nikkel, Chris Medford, Mike P. Ryan, Clinton Boley, Anne Konecny, Ricardo Beato, Andrew Clugston, Justin Rock, Daniel Bissler
