摘要:
A method and apparatus for processing documents are provided. The apparatus includes a feeder for receiving a packet of a plurality of documents and separating the documents to serially feed the documents to a scanner. A retard adjacent the feeder is operable in first and second positions. In the first position the retard forms a nip with the feeder so that the retard is operable to impede the progress of one or more documents in the packet while the feeder feeds one of the documents in the packet. In the second position, the retard is spaced apart from the feeder to form a gap between the feeder and the retard. The system further includes a sensor for detecting a characteristic of the documents in a packet indicative of whether the number of documents in the packet exceeds a predetermined threshold. A drive mechanism automatically drives the retard pad between the first and second positions in response to the detected characteristic

A paper feeding apparatus includes a rack that stores sheets in a vertically placed state, a first conveying roller that conveys a sheet extracted from the rack in a first direction in an erected state, a scraper that scrapes a surface of the sheet conveyed in the erected state by the first conveying roller, and a second conveying roller that conveys the sheet, the surface of which is scraped by the scraper, in a second direction different from the first direction.

A simple and reliable device is provided which pulls out packing material from a container in order to band a stack of bank notes. The container has an upper lip with an element interacting with the packing material. A vertically reciprocating pickup mechanism is moved down and contacted with an upper surface of a packed band. A suction attaches the upper surface of the packed band and allows the upper surface to be pulled past the upper lip such that when a lower part of said packed band is gripped by retainers that extend from the upper lip, the band is spread out sufficient to insert a rolled up stack of bank notes.
