A bank note processing machine comprises a machine body divided into an upper structure unit and a lower structure unit, each of which is drawable outward from a front side of the machine body. The upper structure unit comprises a bank note dispensing portion, and the lower structure unit comprises denominated bank note storage portions. The upper and lower structure units include components for directing dispensable and non-dispensable bank notes from the storage portions to various designated conveying areas.

Bank note processing machine

An accumulating device is capable of securely accumulating sheets or the like having dimensional differences on the basis of the rear ends in the taking-in direction thereof. In this device, a stopper advances from above to an advanced position between the tip end regulating wall and the rear end regulating wall and stops the tip ends in the taking-in direction of the sheets to be taken in, whose length in the taking-in direction is shorter than a maximum length. The stopper is supported movably in the vertical direction with respect to the advancing and retreating mechanism which causes the stopper to advance and retreat between the advanced position and the retreated position, and presses the sheets in the downward direction. The stopper stops the tip ends in the taking-in direction of the sheets having dimensional differences and allows the device to accumulate those sheets.

Bank note processing machine with temporary storage portion

To provide an accumulating devicethat is capable of securely accumulating sheets or the like P having dimensional differences on the basis of the rear ends in the taking-in direction thereof. The stopperadvances from upward to the advanced position between the tip end regulating walland the rear end regulating walland stops the tip ends in the taking-in direction of sheets or the like P to be taken in, whose length in the taking-in direction of sheets or the like P is shorter than the maximum length. The stopperis supported movably in the vertical direction with respect to the advancing and retreating mechanism by which the stopperis caused to advance and retreat between the advanced position and the retreated position, and presses sheets or the like P in the downward direction. The stopperthat has advanced to the advanced position is changed over to a state where the stopper is brought into contact with the upper surface of the accumulated sheets or the like P in response to the length in the taking-in direction of the accumulated sheets or the like P and a state where it advances to the tip end side in the taking-in direction of the accumulated sheets P or the like. The stopperstops the tip ends in the taking-in direction of sheets or the like P having dimensional differences and accumulates sheets or the like P having dimensional differences on the basis of the rear ends in the taking-in direction thereof.
