ABSTRACT:
Bank notes are accurately delivered to a customer in a preselected amount at an exit throat from a storage bin. Delivery of the bank notes from the storage bin is on an individual basis to an escrow station where the number of bills of currency representing the preselected amount is collected for delivery to the customer at the exit throat. In the transport path from the storage bin to the escrow station multiple bank notes and trailing bank notes are detected to control the operation of the banking machine to deliver the notes at the escrow station either to the customer or divert a miscount of the bank notes to a divert bin. Initially, the process for transporting bills from the storage bin to the escrow station actuates a main drive motor of a transport system. Bank notes are fed from the storage bin to the transport system and if more than one bill is fed to the transport system all but one are returned to the storage bin. The travel time of a note past a check point is monitored to determine an overlapping note condition. Multiple bank notes traveling together through the transport system are sensed after completion of the timing function. Bank notes delivered from the transport system are assembled in an escrow station for a subsequent transporting to the exit throat.
