Total Claims: 17
Claim 1
Independent Claim
123 words
A structure comprising walls, a base and a roof; a component mounted upon the base adjacent to an opening in one of said walls, which component is rotatable between an operative position and a servicing position; a first panel affixed to the rotatable component so as to close the opening in said wall when the rotatable component is in the operative position; a door in one of the walls to permit entry into the structure and an automatic teller machine having customer-operated controls mounted upon the rotatable component so that the customer-operated controls are accessible through said first panel when the rotatable component is in the operative position and are inaccessible to the customer when the rotatable component is in its servicing position.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
123 words
A structure comprising walls, a base and a roof; a component mounted upon the base adjacent to an opening in one of said walls, which component is rotatable between an operative position and a servicing position; a first panel affixed to the rotatable component so as to close the opening in said wall when the rotatable component is in the operative position; a door in one of the walls to permit entry into the structure and an automatic teller machine having customer-operated controls mounted upon the rotatable component so that the customer-operated controls are accessible through said first panel when the rotatable component is in the operative position and are inaccessible to the customer when the rotatable component is in its servicing position.
