Contact Stripper/Feed Wheel Implementation

An apparatus of an automated transaction machine (ATM) to transport a document comprising:

• a feed wheel adapted to be rotated in a first rotational direction by a first-rotational driver so that the feed wheel moves the document in a forward rectilinear direction;
• a feed wheel shaft extending through the feed wheel and defining an axis of rotation of the feed wheel;
• a stripping tire adapted to be rotated by the feed wheel to drive the document in the forward rectlinear direction when the first-rotational driver rotates the feed wheel in the first rotational direction, the stripping tire rotated by the feed wheel in a second rotational direction that is opposite to the first rotational direction;
• a stripping shaft extending through the stripping tire and defining an axis of rotation of the stripping tire, the axis of rotation of the stripping tire and the axis of rotation of the feed wheel parallel to one another;
• a first one-way clutch adapted to transmit rotation of the stripping shaft only when the stripping shaft is rotating in the first rotational direction;
• wherein the stripping shaft is adapted to be rotated to move the document in a reverse rectilinear direction that is opposite of the forward rectilinear direction when the feed wheel is not rotated by a the first-rotational driver;
• and
• a drag clutch hub between the first one-way clutch and the stripping tire and adapted to urge the stripping tire to rotate in the first rotational direction to drive the document to move in the reverse rectilinear direction when the stripping shaft rotates in the first rotational direction.
