The objective of this invention is to create a simple, safe and inexpensive packing which would also allow to simplify and cheapen banding of a stack of bank notes. The packing for banding of a stack of bank nots is made in the form of one transversal ring, and this ring can be made before banding. The width of the ring may be 0.2-0.45 of a bank note length; the ring can be made of a one-layer paper material.

Description

STRIP FOR BANDING A STACK OP BANK NOTES

TECHNICAL FIELD

The invention relates to the field of packing of bank notes stacked

and may be used, for example, in a bank system.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

It is known that there is the packing for banding of bank notes

which represents a loop formed by alignment of two bands. The ends of

the bands are interconnected, the loop made is increased by shifting of

the bands forming the loop up to the size which is somewhat bigger in

comparison with the dimensions of the stack being banded; then one of

the loop's bands is taken aside, the product is entered into the loop, the

loop is tightened around the product and the loop's bands are connected

with the section of the draw bands (RU, Cl, 2078011).

This engineering solution in itself is rather complicated and, in

addition, provides for a complex technology of its implementation. The packing material must be durable, the application of normal paper is

practically impossible.

It is known that there is the packing for banding of a stack of bank

notes which represents the set of two mutually perpendicular rings

interconnected at a crossover point (RU, Cl, 2073626). The description

of the patent contains the information that the rings are made of

polyethylene and interconnected by sealing; the rings are made during

banding.

This engineering solution has been accepted as a prototype of the

invention.

Its imperfection is that the packing is complicated, since it consists

of two rings which have to be interconnected to avoid of their

displacement and increase reliability. For this purpose, it is practically

necessary to make the rings either of polyethylene or of two-layer

material including paper and polyethylene or cellophane. The

availability of two rings interconnected causes the design complexity of

the packing and slows down banding of stacks of bank notes which is

also complicated by the fact that the packing rings are made during

banding. The banding takes place directly in a bank, and the parallel making

of the rings requires an extra equipment to be specially installed in a

bank. It is unpractical because the areas in a bank are very expensive.

The bank notes slide relative to the packing due to their contact with

polyethylene or cellophane.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The objective of this invention is to create a simple, safe and

inexpensive packing which would also allow to simplify and cheapen

banding of a stack of bank notes.

As per this invention, this objective is reached owing to the fact that

the packing for banding of a stack of bank notes is made in the form of

one transversal ring, and this ring can be made before banding. The

width of the ring may be 0.2-0.45 of a bank note length; the ring can be

made of one-layer paper material.

The applicant for a patent has not found any information sources

which would contain any data about engineering solutions identical to

the claimed one. In the applicant's opinion, this allows to conclude that the invention meets the criteria "newness" (N).

The implementation of the invention's features provides for an

important new characteristic of the packing which is as follows: the

necessity of interconnecting of the packing components is excluded;

due to this, it is not required to make rings of polyethylene or of two-

layer material including paper and polyethylene. As a result, the cost of

the packing is reduced, the banding of a stack of bank notes is

simplified and cheapened.

The applicant has not discovered any information about the

influence of the invention's features on the technical effect achieved.

This fact allows to conclude that the engineering solution being claimed

meets the criteria "inventive standard" (IS)

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The invention is later on explained by the detailed description of its

implementation with the references to the drawings which show:

figure 1 - a packing and a stack of bank notes before banding;

figure 2 - a banded stack of bank notes. DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

The packing for banding of Stack of bank notes 1 is made in the

form of Transversal ring 2. Ring 2 is fabricated in advance, before

beginning of banding of Stack of bank notes 1 outside the room where

the banding takes place, for example, in a printing house. To hold bank

notes in a stack more safely by only one ring, its width "b" is 0.2 to

0.45 of a bank note length «L». Ring 2 is made of one-layer paper band

by adhesion of the ends of its cut pieces. The diameter of the ring suits

the perimeter of Stack of bank notes and depends on their type and rated

value.

Stack of bank notes 1 is slightly folded in a transverse direction and

entered into Ring 2. Stack of bank notes 1 is unfolded and takes the

initial form after Ring 2 is fixed on it. The ring strains and tightly

wrings out the stack from all sides. The bank notes are safely fixed in

the stack due to the fact that the ring is wide enough and is made of

paper without use of sliding materials (polyethylene, cellophane).

The banding can be carried out manually or with use of machines. INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY

The packing for banding is manufactured in a plant conditions with

application of widespread standard equipment and cheap materials. In

this connection, one can conclude that the invention meets the criteria

"industrial applicability" (IA)
