Abstract: A paper sheet handling apparatus capable of effectively preventing a photodetector from malfunctioning due to external light is provided. The present invention is a paper sheet handling apparatus including a paper sheet handling port, a projector for emitting light within the paper sheet handling port, a photodetector for receiving the light emitted from the projector, and a light-shielding body that is formed along an optical path from the projector towards the photodetector and shields the photodetector against external light; wherein a projector-side end of the light-shielding body is formed to be retracted from an incident direction of the external light towards the photodetector.

Abstract: A cash automatic transaction device capable of, upon storage of a banknote sent from a depositing/dispensing port in a banknote storage box, or upon accumulation of a banknote sent from the banknote storage box in the depositing/dispensing port, preventing the occurrence of trouble such as paper jam or poor posture. The cash automatic transaction device has a depositing/dispensing port used for depositing/dispensing of banknotes, and a banknote storage box for storage of deposited/dispensed banknotes. The depositing/dispensing port has depositing/dispensing space to store the deposited/dispensed banknotes, and accumulation space in which the banknote is accumulated upon dispensing. The width of the depositing/dispensing space is smaller than the exit and entrance width of the storage box, while the width of the accumulation space is greater than the exit and entrance width of the storage box.

Abstract: There is provided a paper sheet handling apparatus capable of processing a deviated banknote in a banknote storage bin so as to displace the banknote to an optional position. The banknote handling apparatus incorporates a deviation processing means making contact with at least one side of a banknote in a paper sheet storage bin in which banknotes are stacked one upon another, for applying a force to the banknote at least in a direction of deviation of the banknote. The deviation processing means falls, during operation thereof, either in a condition in which it makes contact with a paper sheet in the paper sheet storage bin or in a condition in which it does not make contact therewith.

Abstract: The invention provides a sheet identification machine in which a sensor portion and a facing portion can be easily and accurately positioned regardless of a level of skill of a worker. Accordingly, a sheet identification machine (10) is provided with a magnetic sensor portion (40) having a magnetic sensor (45) detecting for identification from a sheet, a facing roller portion (50) arranged so as to face to the magnetic sensor portion (40), and an energizing portion (60) energizing the facing roller portion (50) in a direction moving close to the magnetic sensor portion (40), thereby bringing the positioning bearing (51) into contact with the positioning member (42).
