Abstract

A ticket diverter for use in conjunction with a ticket processing apparatus. The diverter has an entry passage through which a ticket enters and an exit passage through which the ticket is expelled. A stationary diverter ramp deflects the ticket from the entry passage to the exit passage. The ticket is propelled in the exit passage by a reversible exit drive roller toward either a dispensing outlet or a capture outlet.
