A banknote centering device uses a clutch arrangement to limit inward movement of side engaging plates used to center a banknote. The clutch also allows a fixed cycle motor to be used for both inward and outward movement of the side engaging numbers. The resistance of the banknote to buckling in the slot is sufficient to cause the clutch to slip. The device is rugged, easy to produce, and has proven very reliable.

Banknote centering device for a validator

A banknote centering device uses a drive arrangement to accelerate two opposed side plates and the inertia of the side plates causes the banknote to be centered. The resistance of the banknote to buckling stops the side plates. A separate drive for the side plates accelerates the side plates and stalls when a banknote is centered. Preferably, the current for the drive of the side plates is variable to adjust for changing conditions.

A security box for a bill validator is closed to the contents thereof even when the box is removed from a validator. The box has a lockable lid through which access to the box can only be gained when the lid is opened. The security box is also preferably lockable to the validator.

Currency validator with security box

An improved currency validator drives a bill to be validated along an enclosed path past a number of sensors for validating the bill. The enclosed path is defined between a fixed portion of the validator and two hinged portions. The two hinged portions are movable to a service position thereby exposing the path and allowing access to components in the fixed portion and components in the hinged portions. Preferably the hinged components are latched to each other and enclose the path at an intermediary point of the path.
