Benefits of technology

The patent text describes a device for shooting paper currency. The device includes an outer gun casing, a cover, a conveyor, an electric motor, a battery, a speed control switch, and a tension plate. The cover can be opened and closed and is designed to store paper currency under it. The conveyor is operable to move the stored currency out through a currency exit slot. The electric motor drives the conveyor and is powered by a battery. The speed control switch can be used to adjust the speed at which the currency exits the slot. The tension plate applies a resilient force against the currency to push it against the conveyor. The technical effects of the device include the ability to quickly and efficiently move and count packets of paper currency.

Problems solved by technology

This takes time and effort on the club customer and tips may be limited not by what the club customer wants to tip the dancer, but by the time and effort needed to get and deliver the currency.
However, without any way to track how much is being given out, the customer may find they have over spent beyond their tipping budget.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to currency dispensing devices and, more particularly, to a toy-like gun that shoots out real paper currency.[0002]When visiting clubs, people often give paper currency as tips for dancers. They may take out a bill and hand-deliver it to the dancer. This takes time and effort on the club customer and tips may be limited not by what the club customer wants to tip the dancer, but by the time and effort needed to get and deliver the currency.[0003]In some situations, the club customer may have a particular budget for tipping dancers in the club. However, without any way to track how much is being given out, the customer may find they have over spent beyond their tipping budget.[0004]As can be seen, there is a need for an improved apparatus for delivering paper currency.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0005]In one aspect of the present invention, a device for shooting paper currency therefrom comprises an outer gun casing; a cover m...
