Abstract

See full text

Apparatus is disclosed for moving an automatic teller machine and the like between an operational position and a servicing position to provide access to the back of the machine for servicing. The apparatus essentially comprises a stationary frame and a moving carriage supported by the frame. In the operational position, the front end of the carriage is coextensive with the front end of the frame. In the servicing position, however, the front end of the carriage is cantilevered beyond the front end of the frame. The carriage may also be telescopic such that a telescoping member is contained in the carriage to allow the carriage more movement. In order to move and support the carriage, especially in the servicing position, there is a shaft freely rotatable in a pair of bearings at the front end of the frame on which the carriage rides. The back end of the carriage rides within the frame's rails, which prevent the carriage from moving up or down but otherwise freely allow lateral movement. By turning the shaft, with a hand crank or a small motor, the carriage with the teller machine can easily be moved between operational to servicing positions. An ATM housing shaped like a cabinet is also disclosed that contains a door in the back for servicing the ATM. When the ATM is housed in a cabinet, the whole cabinet moves between the servicing and operational position.
