A currency storage and dispensing apparatus (20) includes a top member (22) defining an upper interior cavity (34), a bottom member (36) defining a lower interior cavity (48), and a slider (64). The top member and the bottom member can be connected to define a storage cavity (49) for the secure storage of a quantity of currency (58). A display notch (80) is formed through a corner of the top member allowing a corner of the currency stored within the apparatus to be exposed. An angled dispensing slot (82) is formed through the upper wall of the top member and intersects with the display notch such that single currency bills can be dispensed through the slot. A currency storage drawer (100) is also provided in which a plurality of bill dispensing units (102) can be secured by a rod (106).

Currency storage and dispensing apparatus

A point of sale device (20) is provided comprising a base unit (22) and a cover unit (34) connected to one another by a hinge mechanism (38). The base unit has a front surface (24) and an exterior casing (25) which define an interior volume. Transaction appliances, for example, a card reader (26), receivables storage drawer (28), a currency storage drawer (30), and a bar code scanner (32), are mounted in the interior volume and accessible from the front surface of the base unit. The cover unit includes a display screen (36) mounted on one side. The cover unit can be moved between a closed configuration and an open configuration. In the closed configuration, the cover unit is positioned with the display screen facing and directly in front of the front surface of the base unit such that the display screen is not visible and access to the transaction appliances in the base unit is blocked by the cover unit. In the open configuration, the user can access the display screen and the transaction appliances. A control unit (40) and input unit are provided to facilitate communications between the user and the POS device to facilitate the performance of desired transactions. The device can operate on internal batteries (64) to allow portable operation.

An electrophoresis gel cassette that includes a bottom plate with an attached base portion, a cover plate, and a gel chamber formed between the two plates. There is at least one opening, which is in communication with the gel chamber, encompassed in the base portion, thereby making the opening seamless or free of parting lines. Upon assembling the cassette, a contact face of the base portion of the bottom plate and a contact face of the cover plate can be sealed by sonic welding or adhesives to produce a water-tight seal and to facilitate casting.
