Abstract: A bank note processing machine comprises a machine body divided into an upper structure unit and a lower structure unit, each of which is drawable outward from a front side of the machine body. The upper structure unit comprises a bank note dispensing portion, and the lower structure unit comprises denominated bank note storage portions. The upper and lower structure units include components for directing dispensable and non-dispensable bank notes from the storage portions to various designated conveying areas.

Abstract: An accumulating device is capable of securely accumulating sheets or the like having dimensional differences on the basis of the rear ends in the taking-in direction thereof. In this device, a stopper advances from above to an advanced position between the tip end regulating wall and the rear end regulating wall and stops the tip ends in the taking-in direction of the sheets to be taken in, whose length in the taking-in direction is shorter than a maximum length. The stopper is supported movably in the vertical direction with respect to the advancing and retreating mechanism which causes the stopper to advance and retreat between the advanced position and the retreated position, and presses the sheets in the downward direction. The stopper stops the tip ends in the taking-in direction of the sheets having dimensional differences and allows the device to accumulate those sheets.

Abstract: To provide an accumulating device 71 that is capable of securely accumulating sheets or the like P having dimensional differences on the basis of the rear ends in the taking-in direction thereof. The stopper 111a advances from upward to the advanced position between the tip end regulating wall 79 and the rear end regulating wall 80 and stops the tip ends in the taking-in direction of sheets or the like P to be taken in, whose length in the taking-in direction of sheets or the like P is shorter than the maximum length. The stopper 111a is supported movably in the vertical direction with respect to the advancing and retreating mechanism by which the stopper 111a is caused to advance and retreat between the advanced position and the retreated position, and presses sheets or the like P in the downward direction.

Abstract: A method of detecting coated fuel particles having a broken ceramic coated layer in coated fuel particles for high-temperature gas-cooled reactor which comprises permeating a liquid into the interior of the coated fuel particles having a broken ceramic coated layer through a broken portion of the ceramic coated layer, thereafter heating it to expand the liquid by evaporation pyrolysis thereby breaking the ceramic coating layer or the whole body of coated fuel particle by pressure generated.
