Abstract
A device for detecting the thickness of paper sheet such as bank note used for a paper sheet transfer system comprises a thickness detection roll rotatably supported at a free end of a pivotal lever and urged against a paper sheet transfer roll, via a paper sheet when the paper sheet is transferred therebetwen. The pivotal lever is pivotally supported by a lever mounting unit, which is detachably mounted on a frame of the transfer system. The lever mounting unit is positioned in a predetermined mounting position by positioning pins and locked at that position by a fixing means including a toggle mechanism. With a change of the thickness of paper sheet being transferred the gap between an electromagnetic sensor mounted in the frame and a corresponding sensing surface of the lever is changed, and thereby the paper sheet thickness is electromagnetically detected.
