Abstract:
1. A device for handling sheet-shaped media, in particular notes of value, comprising: a transport unit for transport of the sheet-shaped media, a sensor unit for detection of at least one feature of a respective sheet-shaped medium, a control unit which classifies the sheet-shaped media in accepted sheet-shaped media and sheet-shaped media to be returned, dependent on the feature determined by the sensor unit, a sorting gate arranged downstream from the sensor unit that is connected with the sensor unit via a first transport path, wherein the control unit controls the sorting gate such that the sorting gate supplies a sheet-shaped medium classified as an accepted sheet-shaped medium to a first intermediate storage for intermediate storage of sheet-shaped media classified as accepted sheet-shaped media, and that the sorting gate supplies a sheet-shaped medium classified as a sheet-shaped medium to be returned to a second intermediate storage for intermediate storage of sheet-shaped media classified as sheet-shaped media to be returned; and wherein the sorting gate supplies the sheet-shared media classified as sheet-shared media to be returned to the second intermediate storage at a first position of the second intermediate storage, and that a further sorting gate is provided which, in a sorting-gate removal-position removes the sheet-shaped media received in the second intermediate storage from the second intermediate storage at a second position of the second intermediate storage different from the first position.
