  • Patent number: 4512263
    Abstract: A depository apparatus capable of sequential stacking deposits comprises a transfer duct movable from a position solely in communication with a storage chamber to a second position solely in communication with an external deposit aperture. The storage chamber is separated into a storage zone and a receiving zone, the latter being the portion of the chamber in communication with the transfer duct. The two zones are separated one from the other by a one way gate system that allows a pusher element to push deposits from the receiving zone into the storage zone against an oppositely biased stacker plate movably mounted in the storage zone.
