A medium transport apparatus includes: a frame; a table including a placement surface on which a medium is placed, a first end portion, and a second end portion, the table extending from the first end portion to the second end portion and being rotatable about a first shaft portion parallel to the placement surface; a first rotor arranged adjacent to the first end portion of the table; a second rotor arranged adjacent to the second end portion of the table; a belt that is stretched by the first rotor and the second rotor, and is configured to rotate circularly and to transport the medium in a first direction from the first end portion toward the second end portion; and a biasing part that links the frame and an attachment part provided between the second end portion and the first end portion of the table, and that biases the table.

Movable platen in document handling systems for an automated teller machine

Systems and methods of the invention relate to reducing a number of jams that can occur in an automated teller machine with the employment of a moveable platen that increases a width of a channel for documents. A document analysis area can receive a document via a first transport path, wherein the document analysis area can include a channel in which the document travels to enable at least one scan component to capture an image of the document. The channel is created by one or more platen. The one or more platen can be movable to increase the width of the channel so as to allow documents to pass through the document analysis area without causing a jam or error for the automated teller machine.
