<p>57 An automatic banknote depositing apparatus comprises a casing or housing (1) and transport means for transporting banknotes from an infeed opening (10a) to a cassette (11). The infeed opening (10a) is covered by one (14) of a plurality of insert devices when the apparatus is complete. The housing (1) has located adjacent the infeed opening (10a) a recess adapted to accommodate the insert device, and the insert device is provided with a pressure means (21) for bringing pressure to bear mechanically against banknotes, and a keyboard for controlling the apparatus.</p><p>One of the insert devices (14) forms, together with the housing (1) an externally accessible opening (10c) intended for manual insertion of banknotes. The insert devise has a vertically displaceable bottom member (22) which, when occupying its upwardly displaced position, forms an inclined surface, which extends down to the infeed opening (10a).</p><p>Another of the insert devices (40) incorporates a slatted roll-shutter (42) which can be moved automatically into and out of the body of the insert device and which when only partially inserted into the device exposes a narrow opening through which banknotes can be manually inserted, while when fully inserted into the device exposes a large opening through which a cassette can be inserted. The pressure means in the form of a plate (21) can be dropped down automatically in the bottom member (22) when the slatted roll-shutter is fully displaced into the insert device.</p> |
