Automated banking machine with slide mounted devices
View Patent ↗Apparatus including an automated banking machine is operative to cause financial transfers responsive at least in part to data read from data bearing records. The machine includes a card reader that is operative to read card data usable to identify at least one of a user of the machine and a financial account. A computer associated with the machine is operative to cause card data to be read through operation of the card reader, and to cause a determination to be made that read card data corresponds to a financial account authorized to conduct a transaction through the machine. The computer is operative responsive at least in part to the determination to cause the financial account to be at least one of assessed and credited with a value associated with a financial transaction.
1. An automated banking machine comprising:
a housing having at least one opening;
a transaction function device located in the housing;
a rollout tray connected to the housing and located in a first position in the housing, the rollout tray at least partially supporting the transaction function device;
first and second slides connected to the housing and connected to the rollout tray, the first and second slides each releasably connected to the housing by engagement of at least one tab and at least one slot, the first and second slides moveable relative to the housing and through the at least one opening in the housing between the first position wherein the rollout tray is located in the housing and a second position wherein the rollout tray is located at least partially outside of the housing;
wherein the rollout tray is moveable with the slides in a longitudinal direction between the first position and the second position, and wherein the at least one tab and at least one slot of the first and second slides are engageable and disengageable responsive to relative movement of the at least one tab with respect to at least one slot generally along the longitudinal direction.
2. Apparatus comprising:
a rollout tray configured to operatively support at least one transaction function device of an automated banking machine that includes both at least one data reader operable to read user data associated with a financial account and a housing that includes a first opening and a second opening,
a pair of slides,
wherein the pair of slides operatively support the rollout tray,
wherein the pair of slides are releasably mountable with the housing through an arrangement in which one of the housing and the pair of slides is in operatively fixed connection with tabs and the other of the housing and the pair of slides is in operatively fixed connection with slots, wherein each slot is configured to receive a tab,
wherein the arrangement allows the pair of slides to be releasably mounted with the housing in both a first orientation and in a second orientation, wherein in the first orientation the pair of slides allow the rollout tray to move in a first direction from a first position to a second position,
wherein in the first position the rollout tray is located within the housing, and wherein in the second position at least a portion of the rollout tray extends outside of the housing through the first opening.
3. Apparatus comprising:
a pair of slides,
wherein the pair of slides operatively support a rollout tray configured to operatively support at least one transaction function device of an automated banking machine that includes both at least one data reader operable to read user data associated with a financial account and a housing that includes an opening,
wherein the pair of slides are releasably mountable with the housing through an arrangement in which the pair of slides are in operatively fixed connection with tabs and the housing is in operatively fixed connection with slots, wherein each slot is configured to receive a tab,
wherein the arrangement allows the pair of slides to be releasably mounted with the housing in both a first configuration and in a second configuration,
wherein in the first configuration the pair of slides allow the rollout tray to move in a first direction from a first position to a second position,
wherein in the first position the rollout tray is located within the housing, and
wherein in the second position at least a portion of the rollout tray extends outside of the housing through the opening.
4. The automated banking machine of claim 1 , wherein one of the housing and a slide is in operatively fixed connection with a first tab and the other of the housing and a slide is in operatively fixed connection with a first slot, wherein the first tab and the first slot are releasably engageable, and
wherein the slide is mountable in releasable engagement with the housing in a first configuration and in a second configuration, wherein in the first configuration the rollout tray is movable between the first and second positions such that the device extends through a first opening at a first side of the housing, and wherein in the second configuration the rollout tray is movable between the first and second positions such that the device extends through a second opening at a second side of the housing opposed of the first side.
