MEDIA STORAGE AND RECYCLING SYSTEM FOR AUTOMATED BANKING MACHINE

摘要

A media storage system for an automated banking machine (10) inlcudes a flipper member (90, 178) which is rotationally movable to engage sheets. A gripper member (138, 182) is movably mounted relative to the flipper member. The flipper member further includes an arcuately extending slot (92, 180). T he sheet extending in the slot is held in fixed engagement with the flipper member by the gripper member. Rotation of the flipper member to a releasing position causes the sheet to be engaged with a stop surface (160, 188) as th e gripper member moves to release the sheet. Sheets released by the flipper member are positioned in a stack (94, 184). The flexible flap (160) engages each sheet after it has been released by the flipper member to conform the sheet to the stack. In alternative embodiments a flipper member (178) includ es a picker portion (202). Picker portion is selectively operated to remove sheets from the stack.
