Abstract: A medium storage box includes an internal storage space configured to store a paper sheet-shaped medium. The medium storage box includes: a first opening into which an insertion member is inserted from outside; a second opening through which the medium passes; a first shutter member that closes off the first opening; a second shutter member that closes off the second opening; and a biasing mechanism that biases either the first shutter member, or the second shutter member, or both, in a closing direction. The first shutter member is configured to be pressed by the insertion member and moves in an opening direction during insertion of the insertion member, such that a portion of the first shutter member abuts the second shutter member and moves the second shutter member in an opening direction.

Abstract: A bundle conveyance unit conveys a medium bundle created by a storage unit in a conveyance direction along a bundle conveyance path. Either the storage unit or the bundle conveyance unit includes a conveyance guide that is disposed at a connection location between the storage unit and the bundle conveyance unit, that forms a portion of the bundle conveyance path, and that transitions between a state communicating the bundle conveyance path with the inside of a reject storage box, and a state communicating the bundle conveyance path with the inside of a stacking section.

Abstract: A medium stacking device includes side guides that are respectively disposed in a width direction parallel to a sheet face of the medium and orthogonal to a direction of progress at positions on both sides of a portion of a stage on which a medium is stacked, and that respectively guide the medium discharged from a discharge section in the width direction using a stacking guide face. Each side guide includes a discharge guide face that guides toward a central side in the width direction on progression from the discharge section along the direction of progress, a support guide face that supports the medium from a side of the stage, and a guiding valley portion that is an adjoining portion between the discharge guide face and the support guide face, that causes a vertex or edge of the medium to slide with progression of the medium, and that causes a leading edge portion of the medium in the direction of progress to pass further to a stacking direction side than the stage arm.

Abstract: The drawer device includes a casing including a specific internal space, a unit that adopts a pulled out state by being pulled out forward from a housed state of being housed in the casing, a subunit in the unit that adopts an open state in which the unit interior is open to the outside by swinging in an opening direction, and adopts a closed state in which the unit interior is closed off from the outside by swinging in a closing direction, and a push-in restriction section that restricts movement of the unit toward the casing when the unit is moved toward the casing with the subunit still in the open state. The subunit swings about a pivot point in the vicinity of a lower end portion of the unit.

Abstract: The present invention provides a medium conveyance device whose reliability is enhanced. Namely, a roller conveyance section uses support parts to couple together an upper side shaft, which receives a first reaction force produced in accordance with a first contact-pressure force that urges first driven rollers toward first drive rollers, and a lower side shaft, which receives a second reaction force produced in accordance with a second contact-pressure force that urges second driven rollers toward second drive rollers. Because of this, the medium conveyance device of the present invention may cancel out the two reaction forces that cause an upper side guide and a lower side guide to bend in two bank note conveyance paths adjacent to one another.

Abstract: A drawer device. The drawer device includes a casing including a specific internal space, a unit that adopts a pulled out state by being pulled out forward from a housed state of being housed in the casing, a subunit on a front face of the unit that adopts an open state in which the unit interior is open to the outside by swinging in an opening direction, and adopts a closed state in which the unit interior is closed off from the outside by swinging in a closing direction, and a push-in restriction section that restricts movement of the unit toward the casing when the unit is moved toward the casing with the subunit still in the open state. The push-in restriction section may contact the casing before the subunit contacts the casing when the unit is moved toward the casing with the subunit still in the open state. The subunit may swing about a pivot point of a shaft provided extending left and right in the vicinity of a lower end portion on a front face side of the unit.

Abstract: A medium processor is provided with a medium storage which can house two small storing boxes next to each other and has plural slots into which the two small storing boxes can be detachably loaded. Thus, the two small storing boxes can be loaded in a space equivalent to one conventional bill storing box, and the small storing boxes can be detached for servicing even when there are two small storing boxes loaded in one slot. Thus, various kinds of media can be handled without impairing maintainability.
