Device for inputting one or several value documents
View Patent ↗Described is an apparatus for inserting one or more value documents and to a device for accepting or processing value documents having such an apparatus. The solution of the problem is based on an apparatus for inserting one or more value documents, including an insertion apparatus for inserting the individual value document or several value documents and a separator connected to the insertion apparatus for detecting one value document at a time. The insertion apparatus includes at least two parts connected to each other in a movable manner, wherein the first part in a first position forms a continuous supporting surface together with the second part for inserting several securities, and wherein the first part in a second position for inserting an individual security is removed from the area of the supporting surface.
1. A device for inputting one or several value documents, comprising
an input device arranged to input a single value document or several value documents, and
a singler following the input device arranged to grasp one value document at a time,
said input device comprising at least first and second movably interconnected parts,
the first part forming in a first position together with the second part a continuous supporting surface for the input of several documents of value, and
the first part in a second position for the input of a single paper of value being removed from the area of the supporting surface.
2. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second parts of the input device are interconnected with a hinge.
3. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the first part of the input device comprises one or several feed rollers.
4. The device according to claim 3 , wherein the feed rollers are driven when said first part is in said first position and are not driven when said first part is in said second position.
5. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the first part of the input device has directing elements that guide several value documents.
6. The device according to claim 5 , wherein the directing elements, when the first part is in the first position, project beyond a surface of the first part forming the supporting surface, and when the first part is in the second position, the directing elements are countersunk into the first part.
7. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the singler comprises a retaining element and a singling element which together form a singler gap which can be changed by adjustment of the retaining element and/or the singling element, so that the change causes the retaining element to exert a reduced or no force on a paper of value to be input.
8. An apparatus for accepting or processing value documents comprising the device for inputting one or several value documents as recited in claim 1 , a transport device arranged to transport value documents from the singler to at least one store and a checking device arranged along the transport device that ascertains the type and/or the authenticity of an accepted value document.
