IPC: G07D11/00
Filed: 2004-12-06
Abstract: Apparatus of the kind disclosed in WO 02/019289 is improved by the provision of a safety
device. If banknotes are not placed properly in the compartment 21 of the tray 13 but
overlie a flange 26 of the safety device as the tray 13 is pushed into the slot 14 the flange 26
will jam between pegs 27 and 28, causing a body 23 to move back against a spring 25 and a
latch 29 to extend downward from the tray 13. The latch 29 will prevent movement of the
tray 13 fully into the enclosure. The user must remove the obstruction before the tray can
be moved fully into the enclosure.

IPC: G06F3/042
Filed: 2005-04-25
Abstract: A data input device for use with an optically rough tracking surface comprising a substantially coherent light source for projecting a substantially coherent light beam onto the tracking surface for scattering the substantially coherent light beam. An optic guides the projected substantially coherent light beam toward the tracking surface and comprises a first boundary facing the substantially coherent light source and a second boundary opposite the first boundary. A detector detects at least a portion of the scattered light beam comprising a speckle pattern. The optic is arranged such that the tracking surface is spaced from the second boundary by a distance sufficient to inhibit any substantial retro-reflection of the substantially coherent light beam striking the second boundary from striking the detector. A controller responsive to the detector operates the device in a tracking mode for utilizing the detected speckle pattern to track relative movement between the device and the tracking surface. The device is particularly useful in handheld and laptop devices, such as personal digital assistants, cellular phones, laptop computers, etc., where it is desirable to interact with a tracking surface comprising human skin, such as a fingertip.

Abstract: Pulse width modulation of the connection of a load output terminal to a power supply terminal is effected. In response to a first level of the pulse width modulated signal, the load is disconnected from the power supply terminal, steady-state load voltage is preserved on a capacitor connected between a load output terminal and a power supply terminal, and steady-state load current information is held on a capacitor within the feedback loop. In response to a second level of the pulse width modulated signal, the load is reconnected to the power supply terminal, and load voltage and current instantaneously resume at their correct steady-state values.
