Abstract: An object of the present invention is to easily assemble and exchange a reflection type optical device and their parts in an optical sensor for bill validation by fitting unitized housings into openings of partitions. The optical sensor for bill validation includes a reflection type optical device (13, 30) that has a housing (41) for receiving an optical component (40) and also forming a part of a bill passageway (20). The housing (41) has a lid (42) and a box (43), the lid (42) being formed of light-permeable materials to allow lights irradiated from the inner optical component (40) and lights reflected on the bill to pass through the lid (42), and the box (43) surrounding the inner optical component (40) in combination with the lid (42) that is fit into an opening (53) formed in a partition (11, 12).

Abstract: A system for handling valuable documents is provided that comprises a validator 2 for validating authenticity of a valuable document, and a printer 3 for printing on a card 20 information in validator 2 and an interface 4 for connecting validator 2 and printer 3 for their intercommunication. Automatically or after a certain period of time, validator 2 transmits its stored validation information to printer 3 through interface 4. Otherwise, receiving a transmission instruction signal of validation information given upon turning a trigger switch on or receiving a retrieval instruction signal from printer 3, validator 2 transmits its stored validation information to printer 3 through interface 4 to print the validation information on card 20.

Abstract: A document handler is provided which comprises an actuator 17, a power transmission device 8 drivingly connected to actuator 17, and anterior and posterior gears 11 and 12 rotated by drive power of actuator 17 through power transmission device 8. First and second driven devices may be drivingly and disengageably connected to anterior and posterior gears 11 and 12 to drive first and second driven devices by actuator 17.

Abstract: A document handler is provided with a casement 1 which comprises a lower case 6 which has a lower cover 7 for providing a bottom surface of a passageway 5 and a lower tray 8 attached to a bottom of lower cover 7 to form therebetween a lower cavity 3d in which lower optical sensing element 3a of optical sensor 3 is disposed. Even if liquid spilled on a main surface of the table may often enter passageway 5 to the rear from the bill inlet, there is incurred no damage to electric instruments in lower cavity 3d by extraneous substance which is discharged through a drainage 15.

Abstract: Disclosed is a coin change which comprises a coin sort section 50 for sorting coins C discharged from an input hopper 21, and a coin storage section 60 for storing the coins C sorted by the coin sort section 50 on a coin type by type basis. The coin storage section 60 includes a plurality of coin storage grooves 63 provided respectively to the plural coin types and disposed parallel to each other. Each of the coin storage grooves has a width dimension slightly greater than the diameter of a corresponding one of the types of coins and extends approximately horizontally.
