Patent number: 10947071Abstract: A device for separating sheet material has an actuator and a sheet material holder coupled thereto. The actuator is designed for moving the sheet material holder. The sheet material holder is designed for receiving an individual sheet material piece from a sheet material stack in which the sheet material pieces are arranged in a layered manner one above another along a vertical direction. The actuator is designed to set the sheet material holder into an oscillating rotational movement about a rotation axis that lies substantially parallel to the vertical direction, in order to receive the individual sheet material piece from the sheet material stack.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2015Date of Patent: March 16, 2021Assignee: Wincor Nixdorfinternational GmbHInventors: Mathias Lochbichler, Christopher Lankeit, Martin Landwehr, Ludger Hoischen

Patent number: 7766316Abstract: A device for arranging sheets in a stack that includes a surface for supporting the stack, one of the surface and the stack define a stack face. The device includes an adjustment unit, a rotatable shaft, a first roller, a second roller, a strip-off wheel, and a center roller. The strip-off wheel is fixedly mounted to the rotatable shaft such that the strip-off wheel rotates with the shaft. The strip-off wheel includes a plurality of teeth that are operable to contact the stack face such that rotation of the strip-off wheel pulls a first sheet from the stack. The center roller is between the first roller and the second roller. The center roller is operable to transport the first sheet pulled from the stack to a transfer device and to receive a second sheet from the transfer device and transfer the second sheet to an end of the stack face.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2007Date of Patent: August 3, 2010Assignee: Wincor Nixdorf International GmbHInventors: Martin Landwehr, Peter Heimann

Patent number: 7487968Abstract: The invention relates to a device for depositing notes, which comprises a plurality of storage compartments for depositing the notes, means for transporting the notes to the storage compartments and for the organized deposit of the same on stacks disposed in the storage compartments. The inventive device comprises one or more parallel revolving belts on which fingers are successively disposed in the longitudinal direction which cooperate with the belts to give receiving pockets for the notes. Every storage compartment is associated with a respective stripping element interposed between the storage compartment and the belts. For depositing a note in the storage compartment the belts and/or the corresponding stripping element can be adjusted relative each other in such a manner that the stripping element projects into the path of a note that is displaced by means of the belt.Type: GrantFiled: August 7, 2002Date of Patent: February 10, 2009Assignee: Wincor Nixdorf International GmbHInventor: Martin Landwehr

Patent number: 7357389Abstract: The invention is concerned with a transport device for sheets, with which branching of the transport path can be implemented in a manner which is simple and not susceptible to faults. This object is achieved by a transport device which comprises a first belt transport unit and a second belt transport unit, the second belt transport unit being arranged transversely with respect to the first belt transport unit. Between the belts of the first belt transport unit and of the second belt transport unit, a transport path for valuable documents or bank notes is formed in each case. At the end of the transport path, the leading edge of a sheet which is transported along the transport path of the first belt transport unit strikes the upper transverse belt of the second belt transport unit and is deflected by the belt in such a way that it is now transported along the transport path of the second belt transport unit.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2004Date of Patent: April 15, 2008Assignee: Wincor Nixdorf International GmbHInventor: Martin Landwehr
