The first unit determines, on the basis of the signals transmitted from the medium detection units of the plurality of second units, an order of connection of the plurality of second units to the first unit.
A coin processing device comprises: a feed belt that rotates normally in contact with the upper side of a coin to convey the coin to a conveyance path leading from an inlet side passage to an outlet side passage; a conveyance motor that rotates the feed belt normally during normal rotation; a detection unit that detects the coin passing through a predetermined position on the conveyance path; and a control unit that, in response to the detection of the coin by the detection unit, rotates the conveyance motor by switching from a first rotation state in which the conveyance motor rotates normally at a first rotation speed to a second rotation state in which the conveyance motor rotates normally at a second rotation speed lower than the first rotation speed.
A paper sheet detection device comprising: an optical sensor having a light-emitting unit that emits light, and a light-receiving unit that receives the emitted light; a storage unit that stores a first threshold value used for determining whether or not a paper sheet is present in the path of the emitted light, a target light-receiving level set as a target value of the level of light received by the light-receiving unit in the absence of the paper sheets, and a second threshold value that is set to a value that is equal to or greater than the first threshold value and less than the target light-receiving level; an estimation unit that determines whether the level of light received by the light-receiving unit is equal to or greater than the first threshold value and less than the second threshold value, and that estimates whether or not the paper sheet is present; and a light amount adjusting unit that adjusts the amount of light emitted by the light-emitting unit such that the level of the light received by the light-receiving unit becomes the target light-receiving level in the absence of the paper sheets when it is estimated that the paper sheets are absent by the estimation unit after the estimation unit determines that the level of light received by the light-receiving unit is equal to or higher than the first threshold value and less than the second threshold value.

PAPER SHEET PROCESSING DEVICE AND PAPER SHEET PROCESSING METHOD
A paper sheet processing device that counts a plurality of paper sheets set in a depositing unit for each preset batch number and dispenses the paper sheets to a dispensing unit, wherein: the paper sheet processing device comprises a temporary holding unit that holds the paper sheets set in the depositing unit and feeds out the held paper sheets, and a control unit that controls the feeding out of the paper sheets in the temporary holding unit and controls conveyance of the paper sheets set in the depositing unit; and the control unit performs control for feeding out the paper sheets held in the temporary holding unit by the batch number and dividing and dispensing the sheets into the dispensing unit.
This medium processing device is provided with a main body unit which is for counting media and configured to be connectable to at least one medium processing unit that accommodates the media. The main body unit has: a plurality of power supply lines including first and second power supply lines which are mutually independent and supply power to the at least one medium processing unit; and an output unit for outputting a control signal to the at least one medium processing unit.
This paper sheet processing device comprises: a case that houses paper sheets; and a sliding stage portion that is provided within the case and supports the paper sheets housed in the case. The sliding stage portion slides with respect to the case to protrude partially to the outside of the case and also slides with respect to the case to push the paper sheets to the outside of the case and cause the leading ends of the paper sheets to protrude to the outside of the case.
A bill processing machine according to the present invention includes a control portion that controls a pair of first and second sensor units. The control portion performs: a first process in which first and second reflected lights of one face of a bill are detected sequentially by first and second reflection sensors of the first sensor unit, respectively; a second process in which third and fourth reflected light of an other face of the bill are detected sequentially by first and second reflection sensors of the second sensor unit, respectively; and a third process in which first and second transmitted lights in one direction of the bill are detected by the first and second reflection sensors of the first sensor unit, respectively, and third and fourth transmitted lights in an other direction of the bill is detected by the first and second reflection sensor of the second sensor unit, respectively. The control portion makes timing of detecting the first reflected light by the first reflection sensor of the first sensor unit in the first process agree with timing of detecting the fourth reflected light by the second reflection sensor of the second sensor unit in the second process.
