Claim 5:
6. The pneumatic dispatch station of claim 5, wherein:
the at least one finger is mounted so as to be vertically displaceable in a finger guide connected to the first lifting carriage;
an upper end of the at least one finger includes at least one of a weight or a stop;
at least one of the at least one finger, the weight, or the stop being designed to drive the at least one finger into the second height position by gravitational action of the dead weight of the at least one finger, of the weight, or of the stop; and
due to the height-adjustable mounting, the at least one finger is displaceable via the finger guide in a direction of the first height position when the lifting carriage moves downward and the output force required to output the transported object from the pneumatic tube capsule exceeds a weight structurally predetermined by the dead weight of at least one of the at least one finger, the weight, or the stop.
