Abstract
A note picker mechanism for picking new and circulated paper money bills from stacks thereof through access openings of sealed, tamper-indicating containers for the notes when installed in ATM's. The mechanism has a primary suction picker device and a secondary friction-engaging picker device. The friction-engaging picker is switchably engaged with or disengaged from the suction picker so that if a picking failure occurs, the picker mechanism is automatically changed from joint operation of the primary and secondary picker to operation of the primary picker alone, or vice versa, to correct the cause of the picking failure.
