| 20100230482 | FOLDABLE URBAN WASTE CONTAINER - An urban waste container that has a foldable body, similar to a caterpillar with a tubular form, that comprises a main body consisting of 3 areas called first module, second module and third module; a top lid; a supporting bracket; and a curved axis. | 09-16-2010 |
| 20080197183 | Automated transcation machine with sheet accumulator and presenter mechanism - An automated transaction machine ( | 08-21-2008 |
| 20080223915 | Banknote Transporter - A banknote transporter comprising a carrier ( | 09-18-2008 |
| 20080265012 | BANKNOTE ACCEPTOR WITH REMOVABLE STACKER - A banknote acceptor includes a validator, a removable banknote stacker and a removable non locked banknote cassette. The removable banknote stacker, when secured in the banknote acceptor, is operable by a drive member of the acceptor that remains with the acceptor when the removable banknote stacker is removed. With this arrangement, any operation problems of the removable stacker are easily overcome by replacement of the stacker. Preferably, the banknote acceptor, with the stacker removed, is able to receive and function with a locked banknote cassette having a stacker mechanism internal to the cassette. | 10-30-2008 |
| 20080265013 | VALIDATOR WITH IMPROVED RECYCLING CASSETTE - A banknote acceptor and dispenser uses a stacked configuration of the validator the banknote accumulator and dispenser and the banknote cassette. The banknote accumulator includes a count window providing information of the banknotes stored in the accumulator. Preferably the count window has an electronic display of the number of banknotes accumulated. | 10-30-2008 |
| 20090212100 | Magnetic lock for banknote cassette - A cost effective latch and alignment mechanism for a banknote cassette and a cassette receiving frame uses a magnetic latch providing a magnetic force cooperating with the cassette to move it to and be releasably maintained in a final aligned position. Preferably a permanent magnet attached to the cassette receiving frame cooperates with the metal of the cassette to provide the magnetic bias and locking force. | 08-27-2009 |
| 20100065623 | DEVICE FOR HANDLING BANKNOTES - The invention relates to an apparatus for processing bank notes, in particular a compensation unit for adapting the bank-note stock of a recycling apparatus. In recycling apparatus standing in the cash offices of retailers a lack of bank notes of small denominations occurs quickly. In order to render the filling and emptying of the bank-note stock of recycling apparatus easy and safe, and to extend the time intervals for refilling and emptying recycling apparatus and thereby operate them in an economically sensible fashion, a compensation unit is connected to the recycling apparatus, in which bank notes of certain types are stored. It is possible to both transfer bank notes from the recycling apparatus to the compensation unit and to feed bank notes from the compensation unit to the recycling apparatus. | 03-18-2010 |
| 20100193582 | TAMPER EVIDENT ENCLOSURE FOR THE STORAGE AND TRANSPORT OF DOCUMENTS - An apparatus for storage and transport of documents such as bank notes, visa slips, gift tokens, cheques and the like is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a frame spanned by flexible material and a cover plate slideable therealong to close the frame, the cover plate having a leading edge comprising a first member shaped to form an irreversible lock with a correspondingly shaped second member on the frame. | 08-05-2010 |
| 20110233269 | Currency donation machine using air current - A device which collects donations of paper currency by allowing a person to insert paper currency and subsequently cause it to be floated through one or more tubes to a collection box by means of air flowing through the tubes is disclosed. A user of the device may use a diverter box to select one of several collection boxes to receive the donation. An audible or visual signal announces that a donation has been made. | 09-29-2011 |
| 20140246485 | Dollar Coin Converter - The Dollar Coin Converter is an annular attachment to a United States dollar coin, which semi-permanently converts the coin into a size that is tactilely and visually, more easily distinguished from the United States quarter coin. It allows advertising and marketing on the faces of the annular attachment to provide incentives to circulate the coin, saving billions of dollars. The Dollar Coin Converter is made of inexpensive, one-piece or two-piece construction. It holds a dollar coin securely, and will tolerate normal handling, cash transactions, flipping, or jostling in a coin purse, pocket or money bag without unintentional release of the coin. The coin may be easily removed or replaced even by a child or a person with long finger nails for use in a vending machine. The converted dollar coin retains the inherent magnetic and electrical, anti-counterfeiting characteristics of the dollar coin. | 09-04-2014 |
| 20140299658 | CASH CASSETTE WITH ELECTRONIC MONEY SEAL - The invention relates to a device ( | 10-09-2014 |
| 20150083792 | SECURABLE BANKNOTE CARRIER, AND A BANKNOTE HANDLING APPARATUS AND BANKNOTE CASSETTE FOR USE WITH THE SECURABLE BANKNOTE CARRIER - A securable banknote carrier comprising an enclosure of flexible material attached to an articulated bi-fold frame delimiting a banknote aperture, wherein the frame comprises a pair of hingedly coupled opposing jaw members, and wherein the frame is configured such that when moving from a banknote aperture open position to a banknote aperture closed position the opposing jaw members rotate inwardly towards one another from a position in which the jaw members are substantially coplanar to a position in which the jaw members are substantially adjacent and parallel to each other. | 03-26-2015 |
| 20150302680 | PAPER-CURRENCY DISPENSING BOX - A banknote dispenser of a financial self-service device is provided for storing, separating and discharging banknotes. The banknote dispenser is provided with a housing, a banknote separating mechanism for separating a stack of banknotes piece by piece, a banknote pressing mechanism for pushing the stack of banknotes towards the banknote separating mechanism, and a limiting block for ensuring that the stack of banknotes are separated piece by piece and configured to allow the ends of the stack of banknotes to form an acute angle state when being separated. A banknote picking wheel and a banknote separating wheel assembly of the banknote separating mechanism are each provided with a one-way bearing, and at least one guide rib is arranged on the surface of the limiting block in the stacking direction of the banknotes, and the height of the guide rib reduces progressively in the direction towards the banknote outlet | 10-22-2015 |
| 20150302681 | SAFE UNLOCKING MACHINE - A safe unlocking machine is provided with: an operation direction switching mechanism for selectively switching between a first direction allowance state in which only the operation of an operation unit in the first direction is allowed, and a second direction allowance state in which only the operation of the operation unit in the second direction is allowed; detectors for detecting the action of the safe unlocking machine and generating a detection signal; and a switching controller for controlling an operation direction switching mechanism on the basis of the detection signal from the detectors and thereby selectively setting the direction of movement of the operation unit to the first direction or the second direction. | 10-22-2015 |
