Provided is an article conveyance processing system in which article(s) are efficiently taken out from a mobile cart and/or article(s) are placed on a mobile cart even when various types of mobile carts are used. Using the cart coordinate system obtained such that the horizontal, vertical and depth axes of the cart coordinate system substantially coincide with the horizontal, vertical and depth directions of the mobile cart, respectively, the article conveyance processing system performs the control of moving the robot hand and the attitude control of the robot hand; thus, the article conveyance processing system can efficiently take out an article from a mobile cart and/or place an article on a mobile cart regardless of in what orientation a wide variety of mobile carts are placed.

To prevent a failure or the like caused by winding of a tape in a reverse direction to a proper direction, a paper sheet circulation device includes a travelling-direction mark having a pattern that is formed along a travelling-direction of a detection tape and indicates the difference of the travelling-direction of the tape, and a sensor module that detects the travelling-direction mark and outputs a detection signal. The paper sheet circulation device determines a travelling-direction of the tape from a pattern signal in accordance with the travelling-direction of the tape acquired on the basis of a temporal change of the detection signal, and determines a winding direction of the tape on a drum from the travelling-direction of the tape and a rotation direction of the drum.
