Abstract (en)
The invention relates to an apparatus (100) for a document sorting machine, in particular a banknote sorting machine, comprising: an inspecting plate (1) of a sensor unit and a conveyor belt-free and/or roller-free gap, the belt-free and/or roller free gap being configured to accommodate the inspecting plate (1); the length of the gap being substantially shorter than the length of the document, the apparatus (100) further comprising at least one hollow air guide between an outlet of a valve and an outlet of the air guide at an end of the air guide opposite to the outlet of the valve for blowing air on a document moving along the inspecting plate (1), wherein the cross-sectional area of the air guide remains either constant or increases between the outlet of the valve towards and until the outlet of the air guide including the cross-sectional area of the outlet of the air guide. The invention also relates to a document sorting machine and methods.
