Sheet paper handler

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE: To improve the reliability of a transaction machine by using a sensor provided on a carrying path on the downstream side from an inspection section of the paper money transaction machine so as to sense a paper money whose carrying state is abnormal thereby reducing the occurrence of fault during the operation of the paper money. CONSTITUTION: A gate control section 9 confirms whether or not the carrying state of a paper money 11 is normal upon the receipt of an N-th paper money reception command from an inspection section 2. When any fault is in existence, the control section 9 drives a gate 73 to return the paper money 11 to a money receiving and paying section 1, and waits a succeeding paper money reception command. When normal, the section 9 uses a pass sensor 83 to sense the carrying state of the paper money 11 and compares information obtained via a sensing section 85 with data detected by the inspection section 2. Outputs from pass sensors 81-83 and content calculated by the gate control section 9 are used to calculate interval between paper moneys obtained by using the two sets of the sensors and a skew angle or the like.
