Abstract
A device for filling a transport container with sheet-shaped notes of value includes a feeding unit and a removal unit. Notes of value are fed via a vane wheel for forming a stack. The removal unit has an elastic guiding element which limits the movement of the note of value fed by the vane of the vane wheel and falling down vertically.

A device for filling a transport container with sheet-shaped notes of value, comprising:
- a feeding unit which feeds the sheet-shaped notes of value individually and one after another to a vane wheel having elastic vanes, wherein each vane carries one note of value in a rotary motion and the note of value falls into a collecting area due to gravity and rests on edge on a bottom plate in the collecting area,
- wherein when the vane wheel is rotated further, the vane guides the note of value resting on edge in the direction of a stacking wall,
- a closing unit which forms the stacking wall in a closed position and lets stacked notes of value pass in horizontal direction towards an opening of the thin-walled, flexible transport container in an open position,
- a removal unit which transports the stack of notes of value in the open state of the closing unit to the opening of the transport container,
- wherein the removal unit has an elastic guiding element mounted thereto, which limits the movement of the note of value fed by the vane of the vane wheel and falling down vertically.
