View Patent ↗The invention relates to a device ( 10, 40, 80 ) for dispensing notes of value ( 52 ) comprising a dispensing unit ( 16 ) for dispensing a stack of notes of value ( 54 ) and a supply transport arrangement ( 26 ) for individually supplying the notes of value ( 52 ) to be dispensed to a collecting unit ( 28 ) for collecting and stacking the notes of value ( 52 ). The collecting unit ( 28 ) comprises a stacking unit ( 46 ) and a support element ( 50 ) that is stationarily arranged, wherein the stacking unit ( 46 ) stacks the notes of value ( 52 ) onto the support element ( 50 ) to the stack of notes of value ( 54 ). Further, the collecting unit ( 28 ) comprises a press-on element ( 62 ) that is stationarily arranged and that can be swiveled and that during stacking the notes of value is arranged in a swiveled-away position, and for dispensing the stack of notes of value is arranged in a swiveled-on position.
1. A banknote dispensing device comprising:
a dispensing unit; and
a collecting unit configured to collect and stack the banknotes individually transferred thereto by a transport device, the collecting unit includes:
a stacking unit including a plurality of stacker wheels;
a stationary support element, the stacking unit stacks the bank notes to be dispensed onto the support element; and
a press-on element configured to rotate about a fixed axis of rotation by a preset angle of rotation between a first position and a second position, in a stacking mode the press-on element is arranged in the first position in which the press-on element is swiveled away from the support element, in a dispensing mode the press-on element is arranged in the second position in which the press-on element is swiveled to the support element to press banknotes against the support element;
wherein the press-on element defines a plurality of openings;
wherein each one of the plurality of stacker wheels protrudes through one of the plurality of openings defined by the press-on element such that portions of the press-on element are between each adjacent pair of the plurality of stacker wheels when the press-on element is arranged in the first position; and
wherein when the press-on element is in the first position, each one of the plurality of stacker wheels has the portions of the press-on element on opposite sides thereof.
2. The banknote dispensing device of claim 1 , wherein the preset angle of rotation of the press-on element is between 40 degrees and 90 degrees.
3. The banknote dispensing device of claim 1 , wherein the collecting unit includes a partition element configured to be swiveled and during stacking of the banknotes is arranged in a closed position to lock a return transport path.
4. The banknote dispensing device of claim 3 , further comprising an adjustment unit configured to swivel the partition element.
5. The banknote dispensing device of claim 4 , further comprising a drive unit configured to drive a belt for transporting the banknotes to the support element.
6. The banknote dispensing device of claim 1 , further comprising a separating unit in a return transport path for separating banknotes.
7. The banknote dispensing device of claim 1 , wherein the stacker wheel and the fixed axis of rotation that the press-on element is configured to rotate about are on a common side of the support element.
8. The banknote dispensing device of claim 1 , wherein the press-on element is configured such that the press-on element rotates away from the stacker wheel as the press-on element rotates from the first position to the second position.
9. The banknote dispensing device of claim 8 , wherein the press-on element is configured such that the press-on element rotates to the stacker wheel as the press-on element rotates from the second position to the first position.
