  • the feed module 1000 has a feed element 1028 that moves the feed stack 1014 for feeding to the bill receiving area 1004 in the stacking direction P3.
  • the feed element 1028 is arranged in a starting position in which it does not contact the feed stack 1014 and in particular does not press against it.
  • the feed element 1028 is moved in a translational manner in the stacking direction P3, so that it feeds the feed stack 1014 in the stacking direction P3 to the bill receiving area 1004 of the bill cassette 16a and thus to the bill stack 1006.
  • the feed element 1028 comprises, in particular, a stamp 1030, which has a contact area 1032, via which it contacts the value of the feed stack 1014 facing away from the value stack 1006.
  • the punch 1030 is first moved in the stack direction P3 until that it presses the feed stack 1014 against the retention members 1008, 1010.
  • the stack of vouchers 1006 received in the bill receiving area 1004 is pressed by a pressure element 1034 ( Figures 2 and 3rd ) also pressed against the retaining elements 1008, 1010.
  • the retaining elements 1008, 1010 are moved into the feed position so that they no longer hold back the stack of notes 1006 and contact neither the stack of notes 1006 nor the feed stack 1014.
  • the stamp 1030 is then moved further in the stacking direction P3, so that it pushes the stack of supply notes 1014 and the stack of notes 1006 now in contact with the stack of supply notes 1014 further against a force of the pressing element 1034 further in the stacking direction P3 into the receiving area 1004.
  • This operating state is in Figure 5 shown as the second operating state.
  • the feed element 1028 presses the merged value stack 1006, 1014 into the value receiving area 1004 at least so far in the stack direction P3 that a value note contacting the contact surface 1032 of the stamp 1030 in the stack direction P3 is seen behind the retaining elements 1008, 1010 would be arranged if these retaining elements 1008, 1010 were arranged in the retaining position.
  • the retention elements 1008, 1010 are then moved from the feed position again along the travel paths to the retention position.
  • the stamp 1030 is moved back to its starting position, so that the stack of notes 1006, 1014 now assembled rests on the first sides 1012, 1013 of the retaining elements 1008, 1010 and is now held in the area for receiving the notes 1004. Subsequently, further notes of value can be picked up in the feed area 1016 and stacked to form a new feed stack, which in turn is then fed to the bill receiving area 1004 according to the previously described method.
  • the retention elements 1008, 1010 are moved together from the retention position into the feed position and from the feed position into the retention position, in particular via a common drive unit.
  • the stamp 1030 can be moved via the same drive unit or a separate drive unit.
  • the retaining elements 1008, 1010 can also be prestressed in one of the two positions by means of an elastic element, for example a spring, and can only be moved into the other position by means of a drive unit. In this case, the return to the prestressed position takes place via the elastic element.
  • the retention elements are preferably biased in the retention position.
  • the retaining elements 1008, 1010 can each be prestressed in the retaining position and can be moved from the retaining position into the feeding position by the feeding force exerted by the feeding element 1028 when feeding the feeding stack 1014. After the merged value stack 1006, 1014 in the in Figure 5 is shown position, the retaining elements 1008, 1010 are then automatically moved again from the feed position into the retaining position via the restoring force of the elastic elements with which they are prestressed.
  • the travel paths predetermined by the link 1024, 1026 can also be shaped differently. Especially The travel paths can be straight and directed obliquely or transversely to the stacking direction P3.
  • only one retaining element 1008, 1010 or more than two retaining elements 1008, 1010 can be provided for retaining the stack of notes 1006.
