BANKNOTE HANDLING DEVICE WITH WRAPPER REMOVING SECTION AND RELATED METHOD

摘要

FIELD: physics, computer engineering.SUBSTANCE: invention relates to handling banknotes fed in a wrapped state. An image recording device (14) enables to optically record and store, in digital form in memory, first and second information on the wrapper. The image recording device (14) has at least one mirror (18), and preferably two symmetrically arranged mirrors, to enable simultaneous optical recording of information on the wrapper, said information located at different sides of a wrapped stack of banknotes. Image recording can be carried out before or after removing the wrapper (16) from the stack of banknotes.EFFECT: faster processing owing to simultaneous optical recording of information on different sides of a stack of banknotes.15 cl, 5 dwg
