ABSTRACT:
A customer access module is provided for a media dispenser. The customer access module includes an accumulation box or receptacle used to accumulate media in the customer access module. The accumulation box or receptacle is rotatably installed to rotate through 360 degrees and includes first and second accumulation surfaces as well as an accumulation space. The accumulation space is in communication with the outside through an opening. The second accumulation surface has a width w smaller than a width of the media and is disposed adjacent to an edge of one side of the opening. The accumulation box or receptacle is rotated about an axis passing through centers of both side ends thereof and receives a driving force from a motor through a driving belt. A collector box or receptacle is installed below the accumulation box so as to collect the media that have not been taken by a customer. With a customer access module so constructed, a small load can be applied to the motor to rotate the accumulation box about an axis passing through the centers of both side ends thereof through 360 degrees. Even when a small number of sheets of media are stacked on the accumulation box, media can also be thoroughly discharged into the collector box.
