Abstract: A bill handling apparatus has a deposit/withdrawal unit (2) at the upper side of a casing (1), a base unit (3) at the lower side of the casing (1), and intermediate units 4A to 4C. The deposit/withdrawal unit (2) includes a bill introducing mechanism (21), a bill discharging mechanism (23) and a conveying mechanism (29). The base unit (3) includes a bill storage section (31), a conveying mechanism (32) and a taking-in and taking-out mechanism (34). Each intermediate unit (4A) to (4C) includes a bill storage section (41), a conveying mechanism (42), a taking-in and taking-out mechanism (44) and a switcher for switching a bill-moving direction. Elements forming the bill storage sections and transfer mechanisms are made common. Thus, the number of the bill storage sections can be easily increased or decreased, and bills can be taken in and out of each storage section.

Abstract: A bill handling apparatus has a deposit/withdrawal unit (2) at the inner upper side of a casing (1), a base unit (3) at the inner lower side of the casing (1), and intermediate units (4A-4C) between the units (2) and (3). The deposit/withdrawal unit (2) includes a bill introducing mechanism (21), a bill discharging mechanism (23) and a conveying mechanism (29). The base unit (3) includes a bill storage section (31), a conveying mechanism (32) and a taking-in and taking-out mechanism (34).

Abstract: A movable table is insertably and withdrawably mounted on a casing. A depositing/dispensing mechanism for discriminating the note type and genuineness of a note deposited at the entrance of a conveyance path for conveying the note, feeding the note to a storing end corresponding to the discrimination result, and dispensing note(s) from its storing end by a specified input operation is mounted on the movable table. A controller for calculating a balance by detecting the depositing/dispensing of the notes is also provided. The depositing/dispensing mechanism includes a first mechanism for holding the deposited and dispensed notes before being calculated for the balance and a second mechanism for holding the deposited and dispensed notes after being calculated for the balance. The first and second mechanisms are provided at front and rear sides of the movable table with respect to a drawing direction, respectively.
