A transceiver used for a wireless in-building communication system has a housing which can be fitted with a luminaire having at least one lamp socket to which AC power supply voltage is supplied. At least one lamp base is projected from the housing and is capable of being engaged with the lamp socket so as to receive the AC power supply voltage from the luminaire. A member for radiating/receiving light or electromagnetic wave is disposed on a surface of the housing or in the housing. A power conversion circuit is disposed in the housing so as to convert the AC power supply voltage received via the lamp base into DC voltage having a predetermined voltage value. At least one transmit-receive circuit is disposed in the housing and is coupled with the radiating/receiving member so as to execute transmit-receive operation. The transmit-receive circuit is operated by the DC voltage supplied from the power conversion circuit.

A bill receiving and dispensing machine of 'specific type of bill circulation-type' which can reuse, as bills for dispensation, only one specific type of bills among all types of received bills. According to the machine of the present invention, only one type of bills among all types of received bills is circulated through a circulating-bill pooling section for reuse as bills for dispensation and the dispensation bills other than the circulating bills are held in a dispensation bill container and the received bills and the dispensation bills are held in three limited sections, i.e. a circulating-bill pooling section, a received-bill container and a dispensation bill container. This makes it possible to eliminate the special bill pooling sections and the bill feeding-out mechanisms which are used in the conventional machines and therefore to simplify the mechanism and to reduce the noise during the operation thereof. Also according to the present machine, a common route, an accumulating route, a bill deliverer and a transaction port are so designed that they are always commonly used in both the bill receiving and bill-type separating mode and the bill dispensing mode. This makes it possible to effectively utilize the space within the machine body and thus to reduce the volume of the machine body.

Bill receiving, discriminating, and dispensing machine

A bill containing box apparatus used in a bill receiving and dispensing machine having a dispensation bill containing box mounted on the front of the machine body in an inclined condition for improving the handling of bills contained within the machine body. The dispensation bill containing box detachably mounted on the frame members in an inclined condition with the engaging members of the box snapped into the upper and lower notches formed in the frame members. The dispensation bill containing box can be tilted forward with the front door opened and the engaging members of the box disengaged from the upper notches for loading bills into the box or taking them out from the box. The dispensation bill containing box can be also separated from the frame members with the engaging members of the box disengaged from both the upper and lower notches of the frame members. This makes it possible to carry the box to any place for loading or removal of the bills. Since the bills contained in the box are stacked in an inclined condition, they tend to be obliquely pushed out from the box by gravity and are fed to the dispensation bill feeding-out apparatus through the bottom opening of the box.

A circulating-bill pressing-down apparatus used for a bill receiving and dispensing machine having a circulating-bill pressing-down means for pressing down accumulated bills from the top thereof to provide to a roller sufficient frictional force for feeding out the bills. According to the present invention, the bill pressing-down plate is projected only when the amount of the accumulated bills becomes less than a predetermined level. This makes it possible to reduce the vertical displacement of the bill pressing-down plate as compared with the bill pressing-down member of the prior art in which it always presses down the accumulated bills and therefore it also makes it possible to reduce the size of the mechanism for vertically driving the bill pressing-down plate as well as the overall size of the bill receiving and dispensing machine. Furthermore, according to the present invention, the number of retractions and projections of the bill pressing-down plate is reduced since the bill pressing-down plate is actuated only when the amount of the accumulated bills becomes less than the predetermined level. This makes it possible to shorten the operation cycle time of the bill receiving and dispensing machine and also to reduce the manufacturing cost thereof.
