Abstract

A central roller (70) is driven into constant motion by a toothed belt (85) and by drive rollers (88, 89.) A moving element comprising a bracket (92) bearing an idle roller (90) that is elastically biased toward the central roller is mounted on the shaft (7) of the central roller, and this assembly is separately driven by the rollers (78, 79), by a toothed belt (75) and a drive system (MC, 77). An entering bill is inserted between the rollers (70) and (90). The shaft of the roller (90) remains stationary until the bill has moved passed it in a predetermined manner. Thereafter, the moving element (92) driven into rotation at a controlled angular speed exceeding that of the roller(70), whereby the bill shall be constantly held between the central roller (70) and the idle roller (90) while this same idle roller (90) however moves toward the end of the bill until releasing it into a bin.
