Abstract:
The present invention is directed to providing a bill-separating-and-stacking unit with a simplified power-transmission structure by integrating driving units of a push plate and a shutter into a single unit. The bill-separating-and-stacking unit includes a sheet roller configured hit bills entering a bill-stacking space with a sheet, which is rotated, and configured to guide the bills to be stacked, a push plate configured to perform reciprocation and support the bills which are stacked in the bill-stacking space, a shutter which is rotated in one direction to be located in a stacking position so that the sheet of the sheet roller is rotatable to an upper side of the bill-stacking space when the bills are stacked, and is rotated in a direction opposite the one direction to be located in a separating position so that the sheet is prevented from protruding to the upper side of the bill-stacking space when the bills are separated, and a push-plate-and-shutter driving unit having a single driving source so that the push plate and the shutter are worked in conjunction with each other.

Claim (Index 8):
The bill-separating-and-stacking unit of  claim 1 , further comprising a separating-and-stacking-mechanism driving unit configured to drive a separating-and-stacking mechanism,\n wherein the separating-and-stacking mechanism, in which bills returned along a returning path are stacked in the bill-stacking space or the bills stored in the bill-stacking space are separated and returned, is provided at a bill inlet side of the bill-stacking space, and includes: a pickup roller configured to separate each of the bills stored in the bill-stacking space; a feed roller which is provided under the pickup roller and applies transmission power to the bills; a guide roller which is circumscribed about the feed roller and prevents the bills from being separated in two bills; and a sheet roller.
