The invention relates to a device for depositing notes, which comprises a plurality of storage compartments for depositing the notes, means for transporting the notes to the storage compartments and for the organized deposit of the same on stacks disposed in the storage compartments. The inventive device comprises one or more parallel revolving belts on which fingers are successively disposed in the longitudinal direction which cooperate with the belts to give receiving pockets for the notes. Every storage compartment is associated with a respective stripping element interposed between the storage compartment and the belts. For depositing a note in the storage compartment the belts and/or the corresponding stripping element can be adjusted relative each other in such a manner that the stripping element projects into the path of a note that is displaced by means of the belt.
A device (10) for depositing notes, which comprises a plurality of storage compartments (14) for depositing the notes, and means for conveying the notes to the storage compartments (14) and for the organized depositing of the same on stacks situated in the storage compartments, characterized in that the transporting means have one or more parallel, revolving belts (18) on which fingers (28) are arranged successively in the longitudinal direction of the belts, said fingers cooperating with the belts to form receiving pockets for the notes, in that each storage compartment (14) is assigned a stripping element (34) which is arranged in each case between the storage compartment (14) and belt (18), and in that to deposit a note (12) in a selected storage compartment (14) the belt (18) and/or the corresponding stripping element (34) can be adjusted relative to one another in such a manner that the stripping element (34) projects into the path of a note (12) moved by the belt (18).
The device as claimed in one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the belt (18) is a toothed belt.
The device as claimed in one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the storage compartments (14) abut against the stripping element (34) with a side which is open or is to be opened and are provided in such a manner that the notes can stand upright in them in a stack (16) which extends until immediately in front of the stripping element (34).
The device as claimed in one of the preceding claims, characterized in that it has, for each of the storage compartments (14), a switchable deflecting device (36) for deflecting the belt (18) in such a manner that the stripping element (34) projects into the path of a note (12) moved by the belt.
The device as claimed in one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the stripping plate (34) can be adjusted in the direction of the belts (18) until it projects into the path of a note moved by the belt.
