DYNAMIC SIZING OF SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS
A system for processing a financial transaction request and a method executed by the system can include receiving, at a first server, a request to execute the financial transaction request. The first server can determine transaction middleware (TM) super-modules that are stored on the first server and are required to execute the financial transaction. The first server can detect capacities of the TM super-modules and annex control over memory space of a second server if needed. The first server can replicate at least one of the TM super-modules on the memory of the second server and direct the financial transaction request to the TM super-module replicated on the second server. That TM super-module can generate a corresponding output received by the first server, which can then cede control over the memory space of the second server.

A mechanism for actuating a boltwork sensing switch in an Automated Transaction Machine (ATM) includes linear actuators that are rigidly affixed to a bracket. The actuators are operable to linearly move the bracket in synchronized linear movement with the actuators. In operation, as the actuators move the bracket, a distal end of the bracket will come into contact with a switch, causing the switch to change its binary status from either open to closed or closed to open. The signal from the switch, which indicates whether the main bolt is open or closed, is detected by a main processor of an Automated Transaction Machine.

Center de-skew subassembly to center align documents
A center-alignment apparatus for use in an ATM has a transport mechanism to transport a document into the ATM. One or more plates operable in tandem to move the document toward a centerline of a path the document is to travel. Edge-detection sensor(s) on the plate sense an edge of the document when the plate(s) is moved toward the centerline. A translate/rotate mechanism translates and rotates the document while the translate/rotate mechanism transversely moves the document toward the center until another edge-detection sensor detects an edge of the document to create a parallel-aligned document. The control logic controls the plate(s) to centers the parallel-aligned document about the centerline to create a centered document.

An automatic transaction machine (ATM) prints on both sides of a document having a first side and a second side. A printer rotates about a printer axis allowing the printer to move between a first positon and a second position. A transport moves a document adjacent the printer in the first position. While in the first position the printer is configured to print on a first side of the document as the document passes the printer on the transport. A document spool with a spool axis receives the document from the transport and at least partially rotates the document so the first side of the document is facing toward the spool axis. The printer rotates about the printer axis to the second position to print on the second side of the document that is facing outward away from the spool axis.

An automated transaction machine can include a user-interface device, a computing device, a battery, a head portion, a first socket-half, a first electrical rail, and a relay. The a user-interface device can be configured to receive an input from a user and transmit the input. The computing device can receive the input. The battery can selectively direct electric power to the user-interface device and the computing device, which can all be housed in the head portion. The first socket-half can be exposed on an outside surface of the head portion and direct power to the user-interface device, the computing device, and the battery. The relay can be arranged to connect the battery and the first electrical rail in a first configuration and be switched between the first configuration and the second configuration by an output signal of the first socket-half.

A system provides for a self-checkout terminal with various components. A receiver receives shopping data including prices of items that a customer has physically acquired or placed in a cart. A payment logic receives credential information associated with a monetary account for paying for the items. A message logic creates checkout data that includes data representing the collection of purchase items. A transmitter transmits the credential information to an account network for authentication and the receiver receives a response indicating if the monetary account is valid. The payment logic/self-checkout terminal indicates to the customer that a payment using the monetary account for the purchase items is authorized or not. When authorized, an authorization is received at the self-checkout terminal before the customer arrives at the terminal and the self-checkout terminal causes a payment transaction to be executed to provide for self-checkout using the monetary account without assistance by another person.

A mounting bracket comprising a first (top) surface with a slot, second (bottom) surface, and a shield (front) surface extending between the top and bottom surfaces, and two side (right and left) surfaces coupled with the top, bottom, and front surfaces. A cavity is formed by the top, bottom, front, left, and right surfaces. Mounts on the top surface enable a housing to be mounted on the top surface. Mounts coupled with the left and right edge surfaces enable the bracket to mounted on an external surface. Optionally, the top surface may further comprise a hidden mount on the distal edge of the top surface, the hidden mount is hidden when a housing is mounted on the top surface and/or a security pin.

An embodiment includes an apparatus in an ATM to transport a document. The apparatus includes a feed wheel, a stripping tire, a clutch outer-hub and a clutch inner-hub. The feed wheel may be rotated by a first-rotational driver to move the document in a forward direction while the stripping tire is rotated by movable contact with the feed wheel. The clutch inner-hub prevents the stripping tire from rotating in a direction to cause the document to move in a reverse direction when the first-rotational driver rotates the feed wheel. Alternatively, the stripping tire is rotated by a second-rotational driver to move the document in the reverse direction when the feed wheel is not rotated by a first-rotational driver while the clutch outer-hub prevents the stripping tire from rotating in a direction to cause the document to move in the forward direction.

A center-alignment apparatus for use in an ATM has a transport mechanism to transport a document into the ATM. One or more plates operable in tandem to move the document toward a centerline of a path the document is to travel. Edge-detection sensor(s) on the plate sense an edge of the document when the plate(s) is moved toward the centerline. A translate/rotate mechanism translates and rotates the document while the translate/rotate mechanism transversely moves the document toward the center until another edge-detection sensor detects an edge of the document to create a parallel-aligned document. The control logic controls the plate(s) to centers the parallel-aligned document about the centerline to create a centered document.
