Definitions

  • a curvature in the direction of the stacker wheel axis is referred to as a positive curvature of the sheet path profile, viewed radially from the outside to the inside along the sheet compartment, and a curvature of the sheet path profile pointing away from the stacker wheel axis as a negative curvature.
  • the inflection point forms the transition between the first section, in which the sheet compartment has a positive curvature, and an adjoining second section.
  • the sheet compartment preferably has an inverse curvature to the first curvature, in particular a negative curvature.
  • the second section may also be partially straight.
  • the course of the sheet fans in the individual sections is curved.
  • the sheet compartment and / or in particular at the radially outer, open end of the sheet compartment of the Be linear course as proposed for example in WO 2007/068887 AI.
  • the course of the sheet compartment is continuously curved in all sections adjacent to the inflection points. This applies in particular to the section behind the last point of inflection, whose radius of curvature preferably increases radially inward. Notwithstanding the usual Blattfachverierin the sheet tray thus preferably runs slightly undulating with a slight change of direction, which is initially introduced gently and slightly reinforced towards the end of the sheet tray.
  • the first inflection point is from the next inflection point by 5% to 30%, more preferably by 5% to 20%, in particular by 10% to 20%, of the length of Blade compartment spaced.
  • the braking effect on the incoming blade increases.
  • the sheet trays of the stacker wheel in particular the sheet tray course, the sheet tray width and the shaft amplitude, can be selected differently depending on the sheet quality. For example, with new banknotes or banknotes in good working order, it may be advantageous to use a stacker wheel with a smaller pitch than in used, lobed banknotes.
  • a wave-shaped deformation of the sheets along their direction of movement is achieved. Due to the said entanglement of two or more stacker wheels, a wave-shaped deformation of the leaves is additionally achieved transversely to the direction of movement of the sheet material.
  • a particularly effective three-dimensional deformation of the sheet material is achieved. In particular, this results in a wave-shaped deformation of the respective sheet along its direction of movement, which is different depending on the position transversely to the direction of movement of the sheet.
  • both a smaller amplitude of the undulating deformation in the longitudinal direction and a smaller restriction of the stacker wheels are sufficient so that the sheet material can be braked effectively and without damaging damage and securely removed from the stacker wheel.
  • such a stacking device usually has a stripper which strips the banknotes out of the compartments of the stacker wheels as the stacker wheels rotate.
  • the shape of the stripper is adapted to the course of the subjects of the invention. Namely, it is considered advantageous if the leaves abut when stripping with their edges as possible at a right angle or at a slightly obtuse angle to the stripper, if possible during the entire stripping, that is, to each angular position of the stacker, in the Scraper with the sheet fans combs.
  • the leaves to be stripped out of the sheet compartments of the stacker wheel strike the stripper in a contact zone of the stripper.
  • the stripper and the sheet trays are preferably matched to one another so that the angle between the stripper and the sheet tray (at the point of impingement of the sheet material on the stripper) is at least 70 °, preferably at least 80 °, particularly preferred at least 90 °.
  • the point of impact is the first point of intersection between the sheet compartment and the surface of the stripper which the sheet compartment forms with the stripper when the stacker wheel rotates, or the point of the contact zone of the stripper on which the striping of the sheet material begins.
  • the angle of the stripper wheel axis facing the stripper and the sheet tray at the point of impact of the sheet material is not more than 110 °. This ensures trouble-free stripping of the sheet material. An angle of more than 110 ° can cause the sheet material not to be wrenched properly, but to be trapped between the stacker wheel and the wiper and thus damaged.
  • FIG. 1 shows a stacking device according to a first exemplary embodiment
  • FIG. 2 shows a stacking device according to a second exemplary embodiment.
  • the stacking device 1 accordingly comprises a stacker wheel 2 with sheet compartments 3 arranged distributed over the circumference for receiving individual sheets, in particular banknotes BN.
  • the stacking device 1 further has a stripper 4, with which the banknotes BN are stripped from the sheet compartments 3, when the stacker wheel 2 rotates clockwise about the axis of rotation of Staplerradnabe 5. To illustrate this process, two banknotes BN are shown in the lower sheet compartments of the stacker wheel as they are stripped and stacked on a tray 6.
  • stacker wheels 2 are mounted in the stacking device 1 side by side on the Staplerradnabe 5 each at a predetermined distance from each other.
  • the sheet trays 3 are identical in the two embodiments for all stacking wheels and are arranged such that in the illustrated view according to Figures 1 and 2, only the foremost Staplerrad 2 can be seen. Alternatively, however, an entangled arrangement of the stacker wheels on the hub 5 is possible, as described above.
  • belts of the upper conveyor belt engage in the spaces between the stacker wheels 2.
  • the stacking device 1 has a special profile of the sheet compartments 3 in the stacker wheel 2.
  • the stripper 4 is adapted both in FIG. 1 and in FIG. 2 to the wave-shaped course of the sheet compartments 3 in order to ensure that the bank notes received in the sheet compartments 3 with their leading edge are at right angles or at an obtuse angle between 90 ° ° and 110 ° impinge on a contact zone 20 of the stripper 4.
  • the contact zone 20 has a correspondingly curved or wavy course.
  • the Staplerradachse facing angle a which includes the sheet tray 3 during the stripping operation with the stripper 4, should be over a majority of the contact zone 20 between 90 ° and 110 °.
  • the angle ⁇ is shown by way of example in FIG. 1 for various sheet compartments 3. In the uppermost portion of the stripper, the angle ⁇ in the illustrated embodiment is between 85 ° and 110 °. It should be noted, however, that the illustrated contour of the contact area 20 is for illustrative purposes only and is not to scale.
  • the stripper 4 of Figure 2 is uniformly curved in contrast to that of Figure 1, i. without waveform. Since the waveform in the sheet compartments 3 of the stacker wheel of Figure 2 is less pronounced, is in the
