wherein a portion of the switch element serves as a separating element between the first storage compartment and the second storage compartment, and the switch element is pivotable about an axis of rotation through the separating element; and

wherein when the switch element is in the second position the first storage compartment is smaller than when the switch element is in the first position.

2. A value note box comprising:

a switch lever with at least one engagement element protruding through said housing to an outside of said housing;

wherein a portion of the switch element serves as a separating element between the first storage compartment and the second storage compartment, and the switch element is pivotable about an axis of rotation through the separating element; and

at least one vane wheel which is rotatable about an other axis of rotation and with at least one elastically deformable vane for the transport of notes of value fed to the housing into the first and second storage compartments.

3. The value note box of claim 2 further comprising:

at least one drive roller rotatable about the other axis of rotation and drivable from outside of the housing; and
