The device (10) comprises a supply unit (100) for supplying the notes of value and a stacking unit (200) for stacking the supplied notes of value. Further, the device (10) comprises a receiving unit (400) for receiving the thin-walled transport container (12), a holding unit (600) for holding a first closing element (18) and a second closing element (20) for closing the thin-walled transport container (12), a displacement unit (700) for displacing a value note stack created by means of the stacking unit (200) into the thin-walled transport container (12), a retaining unit (500) for holding notes of value transported into the thin-walled transport container (12) in the orientation in which they have been supplied to the transport container (12) and/or a closure unit (300) for closing a closing unit (16) for closing the opening of the thin-walled transport container (12). ## Claims ### Claim 1 A device for filling a thin-walled transport container having an opening with notes of value, comprising: a supply unit for supplying the notes of value, a stacking unit for stacking the supplied notes of value, and a closure unit for closing the opening of the thin-walled transport container, including a first press-on element and a second press-on element that is arranged parallel to the first press-on element, wherein, during closing of the closure unit, the first press-on element exerts a force on a first closing element of the closure unit, and the second press-on element exerts a force on a second closing element of the closure unit and/or the supports the second closing element, and wherein the first press-on element is mounted for closing the closure unit it is movable in a direction of the second press-on element, wherein the closure unit is closed by bringing the two closing elements together. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The device according to claim 1, wherein the press-on elements are mounted such that for closing the closure unit the first press-on element is movable in the direction of the second press-on element and the second press-on element is movable in the direction of the first press-on element. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The device according to claim 1, wherein the first press-on element and the second press-on element each comprise a stiffening element for increasing the bending stiffness. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The device according to claim 1, wherein the first press-on element and the second press-on element each have an L-shaped profile. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The device according to claim 4, wherein a first leg of the first press-on element and a first leg of the second press-on element are arranged behind each other when the first press-on element and the second press-on element are arranged in an end position in which they have been moved toward each other. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The device according to claim 1, further comprising a drive unit to move the press-on elements. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The device according to claim 6, wherein the first press-on element and the second press-on element are connected to the drive unit via at least one toggle joint.
