A depository operates to accept and make available deposit items to authorized users responsive at least in part to data read from data bearing records. The depository (10) includes a body (12) that bounds and interior area (14). The depository includes a door (18) that is controlled by a lock (24) so that only authorized users can access the interior area. The depository includes at least one input device (20) operative to receive data usable to identify users authorized to access the depository. At least one reading device (26) is operative to read indicia included on depository items so that depository items placed in or removed from the interior area can be tracked. The depository is in operative connection with a network (50) that enables the transport and tracking of deposit items.

An article exchange assembly for reducing transmission of pathogens includes a housing, which is mountable in an opening in a wall of a structure below a service window positioned in the wall. The housing extends from the opening into the structure and has a front face, which is open. A set of drawer slides is engaged to and positioned in the housing. The drawer slides are selectively extensible through the front face of the housing. A drawer is operationally engaged to the set of drawer slides. A plurality of fasteners is engaged to a tray, which is positioned in the drawer. The fasteners selectively engage article to the tray. A lift module selectively elevates the tray to positioned proximate to a top of the drawer so that the articles are accessible to a person seated in a vehicle positioned exterior to the structure and proximate to the service window.

Disclosed is a power supply provides electric powerwith appropriate voltage and amperage for the planned useto supportsthat can be shielded electrical materialswherefrom flexible, charged conductors exit. These may be disposed exiting from lower supports in the ground, or from the supports of one or both sides of lateral and/or upper structures delimiting the entry/exit locations of the restricted access area and having dimensions and shapes most suitable to the specific use intended. This system renders it possible to prevent pedestrian and/or vehicles in general without a cabin from accessing the area, with access allowed to vehicles with a cabin, including convertible vehicles with a closed hood, although simultaneously or immediately before or after the passage of authorized vehicle(s), preventing intrusions, invasions, assaults etc. to the restricted access area.

A cash management system utilizes a cloud computing model wherein a cloud of one or more servers may be locally networked or may be geographically dispersed and accessed by the client device over the Internet. The client device is a cash management safe. More than one safe may be employed in a system. Metrics, control functions, and interactions normally handled by an autonomous safe are shunted directly to a cloud server on the network. Usage data, currency validations, coin validations, security entries, etc. are communicated to the cloud server. The cloud server(s), based on database information and software settings, can transmit configuration, updates and information to remote safes. The information transmitted may include user configuration, access rules, currency configuration, alert configuration, and software and firmware updates. The cloud server based cash management system allows the entire cash management of an enterprise to be provided as a service to that enterprise.

A high security anti-splash cuffing box system is provided for enabling articles to pass through the access opening of a high security door or wall and for the safe hand cuffing of prisoners or detainees by personnel outside the cell. The system embodies a door frame assembly providing a sliding door movable between a locked engagement and an unlocked disengagement in a closed and an open condition relative to the access opening, while providing anti-slam functionality. A cuffing box providing an enclosure with 280-degree visibility is detachably connectable and securely engageable to the door frame assembly.

A privacy booth for isolating a user from the surrounding environment so as to provide acoustical and possibly visual privacy to the user. A single privacy booth may be utilized when a user must interact with an electronic device or terminal, for example, an ATM. When interacting with a human, for example, a bank teller, a pair of joined privacy booths provide acoustical and visual privacy to both interacting parties. The solid but possibly transparent barrier between the user and the teller helps prevent snatch and grab type crimes and protects the teller from armed robbery attempts. Access to the user's privacy booth may be controlled using access keypads that open semi-circular doors. A transaction pass-through tube allows for passing documents, etc. back and forth between the user and the teller. The privacy booth may have an elevatable and rotatable floor allowing access to wheel chair confined persons.
