Abstract: The invention relates to a banknote compartment for a till drawer or the like, which is defined by a bottom, sidewalls, a rear wall and a front wall and has a covering element which extends from the rear wall over a part of the length of the compartment which is measured between the rear wall and the front wall. Said covering element comprises a holding-down clamp for banknotes, near its free edge which is at a distance from the rear wall. The clamp can be pivoted about an axis which is parallel to the bottom and the rear wall, between a pressure position, in which said clamp is pre-stressed downwards in the direction of the bottom, and a lifted release position. At least one intermediate bottom dividing the banknote compartment into superposed partial compartments is arranged between the bottom of the compartment and the covering element, parallel thereto and at a distance therefrom. Said intermediate bottom extends from the rear wall over a part of the length of the compartment.

Abstract: The invention relates to the combination of a balance and a cash register with a customer display device shared by both, customary cash register software being used for this purpose. A multiplexer is used, the one data input of which has weighing data of the balance applied to it and the other input of which has price and/or product data that are output by the data processing unit applied to it, the one data input being activated by a multiplex switching signal when the weighing data have a value other than zero.

Abstract: The invention relates to the reliable and fast deferred detection of unscanned articles at self-service product detection stations. For this purpose, a camera is mounted on the weighing scale, so that articles which have not been scanned can be registered. The camera is activated when the weight indication of the weighing scale changes without an article having been scanned. The camera consequently registers the article last placed on the weighing scale and transmits this image to the display of an operator, who is informed about the article not scanned in and can correspondingly ask the customer to detect retroactively the article that has inadvertently not been detected.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cassette for receiving a stack of sheets, with a pressing element which bears against a first end face of the stack of sheets and is movable in the pressing direction, with a drive motor for displacing the pressing element so that a second end face the stack of sheets facing away from the pressing element can be brought to bear against extracting elements of a sheet extracting device, and with a measuring device for determining the pressing force of the stack of sheets against the extracting elements an output signal of the measuring device serving for controlling the drive motor in order to generate a predetermined pressing force.
