A method of automatically banderoling objects, for example banknotes, arranged in a bundle, by laying a banderole, for example a paper strip, about the bundle, preferably after the bundle was compacted, and thereafter sealing the bundle by jointing together preferably the end portions of the strip.

A method of automatically banderoling objects, for example banknotes, arranged in a bundle, by laying a banderole, for example a paper strip, about the bundle, preferably after the bundle was compacted, and thereafter sealing the bundle by jointing together preferably the end portions of the strip. The method is especially characterized in that the strip is jointed together by means of a self-adhesive label after the strip was folded about the bundle, which label is automatically separated from its carrier strip and attached on the strip. The invention also relates to an apparatus for carrying out the method.

A method of automatically banderoling sheet objects, such as banknotes, arranged in a bundle, by laying a banderole strip, such as a paper strip, about the bundle, and thereafter sealing the bundle by joining together the end portions of the strip, comprising: advancing a desired length of said strip with one strip end leading in the direction of movement toward a receiving position at the base of a structure by which a plurality of sheet objects are assembled and placed as a bundle with the face of the first one sheet object against the mid-portion of the strip with end portions of the strip extending from both sides of the bundle location; separating said desired length of strip from a supply means to form a strip trailing end; attaching one portion of a small self-adhesive label to and extending forwardly from the leading end of said strip, so that the second portion of the label projects forward from said leading strip end portion, prior to its being advanced to said receiving position; continuing to feed said separated desired length of strip, with the attached label on the strip leading end, in said direction into said receiving position, said leading end of said separated strip being an overlying end portion in a strip folding operation, the other, trailing, end portion of said separated strip being an underlying end portion in said strip folding operation; said strip folding operation comprising engaging and folding the end portions of said strip past and against the opposed side ends of the bundle of sheet objects at said receiving position; then further folding the strip trailing end portion, which will become the underlying end portion, over and flat against the face of the final sheet object in the bundle; folding the strip leading end portion, which will become the overlying end portion, the end with the label attached, over and flat against the same face of the final sheet object so that the two ends of the strip are juxtaposed and the projected portion of the label overlaps the underlying trailing end portion of said strip; and pressing the projected second portion of the label into adhered condition to said underlying trailing end portion of the strip, thereby sealing the strip around the bundle of sheet objects.
