Patent number: 9908151Abstract: An apparatus for processing value documents, in particular banknotes, comprises more processing zones respectively having at least one cover for covering an internal space of the processing zone in question. An interior lighting means is provided and at least one region of the cover or adjacent to the cover is semitransparent. The internal space can thus be viewed through the semitransparent region only when the interior lighting means is switched on. Upon detecting an error in the bank note processing, the interior lighting means of the processing zone in question lights up automatically, thus guiding the operator directly to the location of the problem.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 2012Date of Patent: March 6, 2018Assignee: GIESECKE+DEVRIENT CURRENCY TECHNOLOGY GMBHInventors: Peter Dopfer, Wolfgang Koniger, Mario Monch, Marcel Zandl

Patent number: 8172221Abstract: Apparatus for continuous singling of stacks of loose sheet material, in particular bank notes, vouchers, checks, separation cards, etc., includes a singler for singling stacks of loose sheet material and a feeding device which moves stacks of loose sheet material to be singled into a position where sheet material is grasped by the singler and transferred to a transport system, wherein the feeding device has a first, substantially single-axis moved feeding element and a second, substantially multi-axis moved feeding element. An area for receiving sheet material to be singled and which is divided into a first subarea and a second subarea is provided, wherein the first and second subareas adjoin each other and the second subarea forms an input area for inputting sheet material to be singled.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2008Date of Patent: May 8, 2012Assignee: Giesecke & Devrient GmbHInventors: Mario Mönch, Erwin Demmeler

Patent number: 7874554Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for automated, continuous singling of loose sheet material, by the steps of feeding a stack of loose sheet material to be singled located on a first feeding element from a deposit position to a position in which the uppermost sheet of the stack can be grasped by the singling unit, sheet-by-sheet singling of the fed stack by the singling unit, the stack being fed by the feeding element such that the particular uppermost sheet of the stack can be grasped by the singling unit, feeding a further stack of loose sheet material to be fed located on a second feeding element from the deposit position to a position in which the uppermost sheet of the stack to be fed is located below the first feeding element, and uniting the stack to be singled and the fed stack by drawing the first feeding element out of the feeding path.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 2004Date of Patent: January 25, 2011Assignee: Giesecke & Devrient GmbHInventors: Peter Dopfer, Christian Casensky, Erwin Demmeler, Mario Mönch

Patent number: 7040618Abstract: Stacker 1 for sheet-shaped objects is described having feeding device 3 for depositing sheet-shaped objects 2 in storage pocket 4 with variable capacity. Storage pocket 4 has contact surface 5 against which sheet-shaped objects 2 deposited in storage pocket 4 lie with one edge 6, and storage tray 7 on which sheet-shaped objects 2 are stacked in storage pocket 4 flat and parallel to storage tray 7. Storage tray 7 is mounted movably for changing the capacity of storage pocket 4. Storage pocket 4 is disposed with contact surface 5 at an angle to the horizontal so that sheet-shaped objects 2 stacked in storage pocket 4 rest with their edges 6 on contact surface 5 and the resulting frictional force between edges 6 of sheet-shaped objects 2 and contact surface 5 substantially compensates the slope descending force acting on stack 10 formed of sheet-shaped objects 2 in the direction of storage tray 7.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 2001Date of Patent: May 9, 2006Assignee: Giesecke & Devrient GmbHInventor: Mario Mönch

Patent number: 6371480Abstract: A device for transporting sheetlike material is proposed wherein the material to be conveyed is always held between a conveyer belt (1) and a guide means (20) each lying against one of the opposite sides of the material (23). In order to maintain a reliable transport function even with fluctuating sheet thickness, it is provided that the run of the conveyer belt facing the material (23) is loaded elastically in the direction of the material (23) by pressure elements (14, 16).Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2000Date of Patent: April 16, 2002Assignee: Giesecke & Devriant GmbHInventors: Erwin Demmeler, Wolfgang König, Norbert Beck, Mario Mönch
