Abstract:
An example item carousel system is described. The system includes a terminal including a processor and a scanner. The system includes a carousel rotatably mounted to the terminal, the carousel including two or more bagging sections configured to receive bags. The system includes a motorized actuator configured to actuate rotation of the carousel relative to the terminal. The terminal is configured to read data from a machine readable identifier associated with an item using the scanner, and retrieve, using a retrieval module, item characteristics associated with the item from an item database. The terminal is configured to identify one bagging section of the two or more bagging sections of the carousel capable of receiving the item with the item characteristics, and mechanically rotate the carousel relative to the terminal with the motorized actuator such that the identified one bagging section is oriented toward a bagging area of the terminal.

Claim (Index 12):
A method of bagging items, comprising:\n providing an item carousel system including (i) a terminal including a processor and a scanner, (ii) a carousel rotatably mounted to the terminal, the carousel including two or more bagging sections, each bagging section configured to receive a plurality of bags, and (iii) a motorized actuator configured to actuate rotation of the carousel relative to the terminal; reading data from a machine readable identifier associated with an item using the scanner; retrieving, using a retrieval module, item characteristics associated with the item from an item database; identifying one bagging section of the two or more bagging sections of the carousel capable of receiving the item with the item characteristics; and mechanically rotating the carousel relative to the terminal with the motorized actuator such that the identified one bagging section is oriented toward a bagging area of the terminal.
