Device for separating bank notes

摘要

A case (1) comprises a pile of bank notes (2). An air supply circuit (13, 14, 15) forms a jet of air (16) in the vicinity of an edge of the first note (2a). In order to separate the note (2a) from its pile (2) in a simple manner, a succession of states of pressure and of reduced pressure is created downstream of the edge (d) of the opening (17). The interruption in profile creates a reduced pressure over the face of the note (2a) in the vicinity of this opening (17). The edge of the note is then raised and enters the jet of air (16). A change of state occurs and a pressure applies the note (2a) against the moving rollers (5) while holding the following note applied against the pile (2).
