Patent number: 7870996Abstract: An automated teller machine (ATM) includes a movable bulk sheet acceptor disposed outside a secure chest, a sheet storage container disposed within a secure chest, and a movable sheet transport to enable sheets to pass from the sheet acceptor to the sheet storage container through an opening in the secure chest. The sheet acceptor and the sheet storage container may be pre-positioned relative to the movable sheet transport in an undocked position, and thereafter moved into operative positions as the sheet transport is docked. A driving gear carried on the sheet acceptor is placed in operative engagement with a gear member located adjacent the sheet transport. Operation of the driving gear is operative to move the components into the operative positions.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 2006Date of Patent: January 18, 2011Assignee: Diebold Self-Service Systems, division of Diebold, IncorporatedInventors: H.

Patent number: 7793832Abstract: An automated banking machine that operates responsive to data bearing records includes a card reader (16) operative to read data corresponding to financial accounts from user cards. An exemplary machine (10) includes a fascia (12) which extends on the outside of a wall (14) and includes a user interface (15). Responsive to user inputs through the user interface, the machine is operative to receive a stack of currency notes (84) from a user. Notes in a currency note stack can be evaluated through operation of a currency note validator device (88). Acceptable currency notes can be stored for recycling.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2008Date of Patent: September 14, 2010Assignee: Diebold Self-Service Systems, division of Diebold, IncorporatedInventors: Zachary Utz, Daniel Schoeffler, Shawn Griggy, Nat Ramachandran, H.

Patent number: 7748613Abstract: An ATM apparatus including a selectively removable sheet storage container supported within the secure chest portion. The sheet storage container is carried on a movable frame for movement into an operational position. The movable frame is movable from an out/down position to enable removal and replacement of the container, to an in/up position to place the container in the operative position. The frame is operatively supported through pivoting arm members for coordinated movement therewith. As the sheet storage container is moved into the operative position, a locking pin of a catch automatically slides into a locking recess to lock the storage container in the operative position and prevent movement of the frame. Upon operation of a lever, the locking pin is released and the frame moves toward the out/down position so that the sheet storage container can be removed and accessed.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 2006Date of Patent: July 6, 2010Assignee: Diebold Self-Service Systems a division of Diebold, IncorporatedInventors: H. Thomas Graef, R. Matthew Dunlap, Zachary Utz, Daniel Schoeffler, Shawn Griggy, Natarajan Ramachandran

Patent number: 7721950Abstract: An ATM apparatus includes a sheet storage container selectively positionable within the secure chest portion of the ATM. A monitoring mechanism provides audible feedback when the sheet storage container is moved into an operational position. The sheet storage container can be a free-fall container or a stacking cassette.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 2006Date of Patent: May 25, 2010Assignee: Diebold Self-Service Systems division of Diebold, IncorporatedInventors: H.

Patent number: 7611140Abstract: An automated banking machine (10) includes a cash dispenser (220). A machine user interface (15) includes a card reader (16), receipt printer opening (30), and cash dispensing opening (38). A cash acceptor mechanism (80) includes a chute (82) which enables a user to input a stack of currency notes (84) into the machine through a deposit opening (40). Notes are separated from an inputted stack via a note picker device (158, 352) and a note stripper device (64, 162, 354). Upon sensing multiple notes have been picked, picker device movement is reversed to function with the stripper device in returning notes toward the stack. The stripper device is driven to move a note engaged therewith at a faster rate or for a longer time period relative to a note engaged with the picker device to reorient returning notes to facilitate a subsequent note separation attempt.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2006Date of Patent: November 3, 2009Assignee: Diebold Self-Service Systems division of Diebold, IncorporatedInventors: H. Thomas Graef, Zachary Utz, Daniel P. Schoeffler, Shawn Griggy, Natarajan Ramachandran

Patent number: 7419089Abstract: An automated banking machine (10) accepts deposit items such as currency, checks, gift certificates or other items of value. Deposited items after being accepted in the machine and processed are moved to the container (260). The container includes an interior area (268) which is bounded by a shaker member (282) on which deposit items are supported. The machine is operative to control operation of an actuator (290) which moves the shaker member to impart shaking motion to deposited items (278) to facilitate the compact storage thereof within the container. The container is enabled to be removed from the machine to facilitate removal of the deposited items. Movement of the container out of and away from the machine is facilitated by rollable supports (296) and a retractable handle (298).Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 2003Date of Patent: September 2, 2008Assignee: Diebold Self-Service Systems divison of Diebold, IncorporatedInventors: Zachary Utz, Daniel Schoeffler, Shawn Griggy, Nat Ramachandran, H.
