<p>The invention relates to a device for sorting, storing and paying out bank notes. With the equipment which is currently available, the problem is of handling paying-in and paying-out in a single apparatus, without separating paid-in from paid-out notes. In addition, there is a problem in handling notes which have been in circulation and are in poor physical condition. The invention solves these problems by enclosing the notes between two films (14, 15) and storing the notes in consecutive order after each other around a spool (3). The film (14 or 15) is initially wound up on two spools (1 or 2) and is gradually fed to a spool (3) as notes are fed in. The spools (1, 2, 3) are driven by electric motors, which are controlled by a control device (13) receiving a start signal from a feed-in detector (6), or by the electronic circuitry unit (12), which can also be controlled from peripheral equipment such as, for example, an outer keyboard or till apparatus. The invention is for use primarily at manually operated cash register counters in which an installation of the described device is normally required for each note type/value which it is wished should be included in the system.</p> |
