Abstract
A bag depository for a drive-up type of automatic teller machine features a drum having a deposit receiving cavity. The drum rotates about its axis between deposit receiving and deposit dump positions. As the drum rotates from its dump to its receiving position the drum also moves forwardly from the rear to the front of its housing to receive a deposit and then retreats to the rear of the housing to dump the deposit. At an intermediate position in its forward movement the drum engages a drawer and pushes the latter forward to an open position at which point the drawer forms a forwardly extending shelf upon which the customer places his deposit and from which the deposit slides into the drum cavity. When the drum retreats it pulls the drawer closed and then alone continues on rearwardly to dump the deposit.
