Abstract
An arrangement for feeding banknotes detects sequentially transported banknotes and controls their transport to a plurality of storage locations each having an additional infeed, which together form part of a transport path. The arrangement consists of one part (11 . . . 133) which incorporates an infeed opening (61), a detector (121) and a part of the transport path, along which the banknotes are fed in the direction of their longitudinal axes, and another part (201-2705) which incorporates modular storage locations (26,27) which house cassettes (26',27'), and the remaining part of the transport part, along which the banknotes are fed in the direction of the transverse axes. The length of each banknote is established with the aid of a measuring device (14-16) and therewith the location of the midway point of the banknote. A gripper (17) is provided for transferring banknotes from the transport path of one part to the transport path of the other part in response to the results obtained from the detector (121) and the measuring device (14-16).
