摘要： A self-propelled car and load-conveying container on the car travel along a track system having horizontal and vertical track runs with bends or curves between such runs, and having inside and outside corner bends or curves between horizontal track runs . The track system also has switches to connect the system between various stations at various locations on the same or different building floors. The track is generally channel-shaped with spaced rail heads at the extremities of the channel legs. The channel web always has vertical orientation for the horizontal and vertical track runs and bends. The track is formed in sections, and the rail heads have replaceable wear strips. The track sections and wear strips have staggered, non-registering joints. Car travel control strips are mounted at desired locations on the track. Spring-pressed, rounded-groove guide wheels support the car on the track. Car movement control brushes are mounted on the car engageable with the control strips. Motor-driven friction roll means and an energy cell for the motor are mounted on the car and move the car along the track. The container for the load to be moved between stations is pivotally mounted on the car and thus allows the container to remain level, regardless of car location in the track system. A cooperative interlock connects the container door and car drive to prevent car movement if the door is not closed and locked. The car has an obstruction detector which stops car movement when an obstruction is encountered.

摘要翻译： 汽车上的自行车和负载输送容器沿着具有水平和垂直轨迹的轨道系统行进，在这种行驶之间具有弯曲或曲线，并且在水平轨道之间具有内部和外部拐角弯曲或曲线。 轨道系统还具有用于将系统连接在相同或不同建筑物楼层上各个位置的各个站之间的开关。 轨道通常为通道形状，在通道腿的末端具有间隔的轨道头。 通道网总是具有水平和垂直轨道运行和弯曲的垂直方向。 轨道形成为部分，轨头具有可更换的磨损条。 轨道部分和磨损条具有交错的非注册关节。 汽车旅行控制带安装在轨道上的所需位置。 弹簧压紧的圆槽导轨支撑轨道上的汽车。 汽车移动控制刷安装在可与控制条接合的轿厢上。 马达驱动的摩擦辊装置和电动机的能量单元安装在汽车上并沿着轨道移动汽车。 用于在车站之间移动的负载的容器枢转地安装在汽车上，因此允许容器保持水平，而不管轨道系统中的汽车位置如何。 如果门没有关闭和锁定，协作互锁将容器门和汽车驱动器连接起来以防止汽车移动。 汽车有障碍物检测器，当遇到障碍物时停止汽车运动。

摘要： Mechanism for operating a rotary cash drawer provided in an automatic banking unit. The cash drawer is movable between "home", "open", and "dump" positions for receiving paper money at the "home" position to be delivered at the "open" position, for accepting deposits in the "open" position, and for dumping at the "dump" position deposits, or money left in the drawer and not removed at the "open" position. The operating mechanism includes a simplified rotor movement control cam, a cooperating pair of solenoids, and a reversing drive motor. These control movement of the rotary cash drawer between the various positions, lock the rotary cash drawer in "home" position, and prevent retrograde rotor movement at certain times during the cycle of drawer operation.

摘要： A pneumatic tube carrier has a payload compartment formed by a pair of side column members and spaced end plates. The carrier is formed with at least one side opening for access to the compartment which is closed by a pair of doors, with each door of the pair closing one-half of the access opening. The doors are mounted on the column members on opposite sides of the compartment by cams for swinging movement between open and closed positions. Spring-biased control rods extend longitudinally through bores formed in the side column members. The rod ends extend through the carrier end plates and engage rocker arms pivotally mounted within end cap cavities which are formed on the ends of the carrier. Pins formed on the control rods extend through slots formed in the cams for rotating the cams and their associated doors when the control rods are moved linearly within the bores. A selected rocker arm is adapted to be pivoted by an external plunger at a pneumatic tube terminal, and when actuated moves one of the control rods linearly into engagement with the other rocker arm at the opposite end of the carrier, which in turn moves the other control rod linearly in the opposite direction. The linear movements of the control rods and associated pins in the cam slots, pivot the doors to open position. Spring means return the doors to closed position after retraction of the external plunger.
