Abstract: In a bill processing apparatus 1 according to an embodiment of the invention, the bill P delivered in the bill press area 10 is moved toward the loading tray 60 at one side of the press plate 32 and then toward the loading tray 60 at the other side of the press plate 32. In other words, in the operation of pressing the bill, the pressing operation timings by the bill press device 30 are different at both sides of the bill P. In addition, by means of the operation of the swing press members 300, 302, the bill can be pushed in the loading tray 60 while changing a position of the press operating point along a longitudinal direction of the bill P.

Abstract: A card processor of the present invention has a carriage mechanism rotatably supporting a roller, around which a carriage belt is to be wrapped, with respect to a frame, wherein the roller of the carriage mechanism is incorporated into a fixing member so as to be rotatably held in the fixing member, and the fixing member with the roller incorporated therein is made installable into the frame.

Abstract: A game media processor of the present invention includes: a card insertion slot, into which a card is inserted; a shutter mechanism driven to make the card insertion slot closable; a card housing portion which allows the card to be housed therein; a carriage path, along which the card moves from the card insertion slot to the card housing portion; a card carriage mechanism which carries the card; and a control means for controlling the operations of the card carriage mechanism, the shutter mechanism including an oscillating member oscillatably supported by a shaft, the oscillating member having a closing portion formed on one end side configured to make the card insertion slot closable and a projecting/withdrawing portion formed on the other end configured to be able to project and withdraw from the carriage path, the closing portion being configured to close the card insertion slot by oscillation of the oscillation member caused upon engagement of the card with the projecting/withdrawing portion, wherein the
