Abstract
A device (10) for filling a thin-walled transport container (18) made of flexible material with notes of value is described. For this, the device (10) comprises a supply unit (12), a stacking unit (14) and a receiving unit (16) for receiving the thin-walled transport container (18). By means of a stuffing unit (20) the stacked notes of value are moved into the transport container (18) in several successive filling steps. A closing unit (22) closes the thin-walled transport container (18) after the last filling step. The receiving unit (16) comprises a contact sensor (32) which, upon contact with the bottom of the transport container (18), generates a signal that triggers the closing operation or the transport container (18).
Claims18
A device for filling a thin-walled transport container made of flexible material with notes of value, comprising:
- a supply unit for supplying the notes of value,
- a stacking unit for stacking the notes of value,
- a receiving unit for receiving the thin-walled transport container,
- a stuffing unit for transporting the stacked notes of value into the thin-walled transport container in several successive filling steps, and
- a closing unit disposed in said receiving unit for closing the thin-walled transport container in a revision-proof manner, the closing unit including a first subunit and a second subunit,
- wherein the receiving unit includes a contact sensor which, upon contact with a bottom of the thin-walled transport container, generates a signal, and
- wherein, dependent on said signal, the first subunit and second subunit of the closing unit cooperate to close the thin-walled transport container in a revision-proof manner,
- wherein the contact sensor comprises a rod which is rotatably mounted about its longitudinal axis, wherein the rod has a first rotary position in which the contact sensor generates no signal and wherein the rod has a second rotary position in which the contact sensor generates the signal.
