Abstract: A disposable container for valuable items that is suitable for being used in a machine for filling and closing the container, the container (16, 116) being suitable for being anchored to supporting elements (22, 23) of the machine so that a filling mouth (21, 121) of the container is positioned for receiving valuable items coming from the machine, such as banknotes, paper items (tickets, cheques, . . . ), coins, plastic chips for casinos, etc. With the edge of the mouth of the container there is associated coupling means (38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 45, 46, 138, 140, 142, 145) that is movable through the action of closing elements of the machine from a first decoupled position, wherein the mouth is open, to a second coupled position, wherein the mouth is closed, said coupling means being suitable for making an irreversible closure when it is taken to the second coupling position.

Abstract: An automatic device for storing and dispensing banknotes of a preset number of denominations comprising an inlet (12) for the banknotes, recognition means (13) for recognizing the denomination of the incoming banknotes, a plurality of LIFO roller magazines (14-16) for storing the banknotes, an outlet for the banknotes (18) , conveying means (17) for conveying the banknotes between the inlet, the magazines and the outlet, control means (20) suitable for controlling the conveying means for transferring the banknotes from the inlet to the magazines during the depositing step and transferring the banknotes from the magazines to the outlet during the dispensing step, characterized in that the magazines (14-16) are smaller in number than said preset number of banknote denominations, the control means (20) comprising means (21-23) for storing the sequence of denominations stored in each magazine and means for controlling the conveying means to transfer the banknotes from one magazine to the other in function of the

Abstract: A machine for the storage of banknotes comprises means (11, 22) for conveying banknotes in sequence from an input (13) of the machine to an internal compartment (14) that comprises in turn a winding drum (15) of a couple of support tapes (16, 17) with the interposed banknotes conveyed to the compartment. Overlapping means (23) are present between the input (13) of the machine and the winding drum (15) that receive the banknotes in nonoverlapped sequence from the input (13) and send them partially overlapped towards the drum (15). Further spacing means (23) are provided for re-spacing the banknotes at the output from the compartment. The overlapping means and the spacing means can be made with the same device (23) suitably actuated.

Abstract: A machine for the orderly storage and delivery of banknotes comprises an input of banknotes (11), an output of banknotes (19), a path (12, 14, 15, 18) of sequential flow of banknotes between the input and the output, devices (13) for detecting the characteristics of the banknotes along said path and a plurality of compartments (20) for the internal storage of the banknotes. Each compartment (20) of the plurality is a sequential drum compartment and winding belts and the compartments of the plurality are divided into two series of compartments (16, 17). The internal path of the banknotes between input and output comprises a sorting section (15) along which the inputs/outputs of the two series of compartments of the plurality face each other alternately on two opposite sides, each input/output being associated to sorting means (25) that can be commanded for the deviation of the banknotes between the sorting path (15) and the compartment (20) associated.
