SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMPROVING CASH MANAGEMENT SYSTEM OPERATION
Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for improving cash management system operation. In one implementation, a method for improving cash management system operation includes detecting an intervention event in connection with user activity of a user involving a cash management system. The method determines whether the intervention event meets an intervention threshold. A customized intervention particular to the intervention event and a the user is generated when the intervention event meets the intervention threshold. The customized intervention is output for presentation to the user. The customized intervention improves the user activity involving the cash management system.
Detergent Dispensing Laundry Basket
An exemplary approach toward a washable, reusable detergent dispensing laundry basket with fixed reservoir tanks to store cleaning powder or liquid with push flow nozzles that allow detergent to be dispensed from reservoir tank and coin dispensing mechanism allowing users to have free hands while carrying soiled clothes, washing powder/liquid, coins and other similar articles.
PAPER SHEET HANDLING APPARATUS AND TRANSPORTATION MEMBER
A paper sheet handling apparatus includes a transportation member that transports a paper sheet and a rotation shaft member that serves as a center of rotation of the transportation member, wherein the transportation member includes a plurality of elastic loop sections having central axes parallel to the rotation shaft member, and the plurality of loop sections are arranged in a rotation direction of the transportation member such that the plurality of loop sections are each supported by an adjacent loop section when being elastically deformed while contacting the paper sheet.
Friction transport device and paper sheet transport device
To correct a posture of a paper sheet inserted from various positions and angles to a normal transport state without causing any deformation due to contact with a side wall while transporting the paper sheet continuously and non-intermittently. A drive-side unit (20) includes at least one drive roller (25) that is supported rotatably about a shaft orthogonal to a normal paper-sheet transport direction and axially movably, an elastic biasing member (40) that elastically biases the drive roller in an axial direction, and a cam mechanism (50) that transmits a driving force from a driving source to the drive roller, and operates when an external force exceeding a predetermined value in a direction other than a normal transport direction is applied to the paper sheet transported by the drive roller, so as to change an axial position of the drive roller against an elastic biasing force, and a driven-side unit (100) includes a driven roller that changes a transport grip between the drive roller and a paper sheet according to a change of an axial position of the drive roller.
DEVICE FOR EXCHANGING GAMING CHIPS AND CASH CURRENCY
In an exchange device for gaming chip and cash currency, the gaming chip has a color or indication of value on its external surface, the exchange device comprises: a cash currency insertion opening; a cash currency reading section for obtaining authenticity information and currency information of the cash currency inserted from the cash currency insertion opening; an inserted cash currency amount display section configured to display the amount of the cash currency acquired by the cash currency reading section a gaming chip storage section configured to store the gaming chips by type; a gaming chip dispensing section configured to dispense the gaming chips corresponding to the amount of the cash currency acquired by the cash currency reading section from the gaming chip storing section; a take-out section in which the paid out gaming chips are placed; and a user recognition section configured to recognize a person wishing exchange.
Paper sheet storage mechanism, paper sheet handling machine, and paper sheet storage method
A paper sheet storage mechanism (e.g., a banknote storage mechanism 32) is provided with a pressing unit (e.g., pressing plate 46) which advances into a storage bag (e.g., banknote storage bag 34) held by a holding unit (e.g., holding member 36) and presses a portion of the storage bag from inside toward a placement unit (e.g., stage 40), thereby bringing a portion of the storage bag placed on the placement unit into a state in which paper sheets are stackable thereon. Before paper sheets are sent into the storage bag, the pressing unit is caused to advance into the storage bag and press the portion of the storage bag toward the placement unit.
