PAPER SHEET PROCESSOR

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a paper sheet processor which has plural accumulation parts, but of which an installation space is small, and therefore, which can be easily used.SOLUTION: A paper sheet processor is configured from a basic module, and an extension module which is connected to the basic module. The basic module is configured from: a take-in part which takes in paper sheets; a first transport part which transports the paper sheets taken in by the take-in part; an identification part which identifies the paper sheets transported by the first transport part; plural first accumulation parts which have an opening through which the accumulated paper sheets can be extracted, and which is located along a first direction; and a control part which controls transportation of the paper sheets based on an identification result by the identification part. The extension module is configured from: a second transport part which takes the paper sheets discharged from the basic module by the first transport part into the extension module and transports the paper sheets; and plural second accumulation parts which have an opening through which the accumulated paper sheets can be extracted, and which is located along a second direction different from the first direction. The control part classifies and accumulates the paper sheets by use of the first accumulation part and the second accumulation part.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】複数集積部を有しながら設置面積が小さく使いやすい紙葉類処理装置を提供する。【解決手段】紙葉類処理装置を、基本モジュールと、基本モジュールに連結された拡張モジュールとによって構成する。基本モジュールは、紙葉類を取り込む取込部と、取込部により取り込まれた紙葉類を搬送する第１搬送部と、第１搬送部で搬送される紙葉類を識別する識別部と、集積された紙葉類を抜取可能な開口部を有し、第１方向に沿って配置された複数の第１集積部と、識別部による識別結果に基づいて紙葉類の搬送を制御する制御部とによって構成する。拡張モジュールは、第１搬送部によって基本モジュールから排出された紙葉類を拡張モジュール内へ取り込んで搬送する第２搬送部と、集積された紙葉類を抜取可能な開口部を有し、前記第１方向と異なる第２方向に沿って配置された複数の第２集積部とによって構成する。制御部は、第１集積部及び第２集積部を利用して紙葉類を分類集積する。【選択図】図１
