Abstract
The device for the processing of bank notes has a modular design. The device includes a feeder unit having at least one drivable feeding roller, an inlet for supporting bank note-like objects and from which the bank note-like objects are moved into contact with the at least one drivable feeding roller under a pressure force, at least one transport roller, at least one movable pressure roller that is urged in the direction of the transport roller by retro-acting forces, and at least one retaining roller located opposite the transport roller. When a first one of the bank note-like objects comes into contact with the feeding roller under the pressure force, the first one of the bank note-like objects is accelerated such that the first one of the bank note-like objects moves between the transport roller and the pressure roller.
