Paper sheet processing device
A paper sheet processing apparatus that can detect in an inexpensive way that a bill housing part is full with bills. The paper sheet processing apparatus includes: a bill housing part that houses a bill in a stacked manner; a placing plate arranged in the bill housing part and moves as a bill is stacked and housed; a magnetic body magnetized and disposed on the placing plate; a magnetic sensor that detects an amount of magnetism from the magnetic body; and a control part that determines whether the amount of magnetism detected by the magnetic sensor is greater than or equal to a threshold value.
1. A sheet processing apparatus comprising:
a detachable sheet housing part in which a sheet is stacked;
a placing plate which is installed in the detachable sheet housing part and moves as the sheet is stacked and housed therein;
a magnetic body which is magnetized and is disposed on the placing plate;
a magnetic sensor disposed on a stand, which detachably supports the detachable sheet housing part, the magnetic sensor detecting an amount of magnetism from the magnetic body; and
a determination unit comprising a central processing unit, which determines whether the amount of magnetism detected by the magnetic sensor is greater than or equal to a threshold value or not; and
a shield body disposed on a side of the detachable sheet housing part between the magnetic sensor and the magnetic body and extending along the side in a movement direction of the placing plate,
wherein the magnetic body is moved with respect to the shield body as the placing plate moves and the threshold value is set in association with a position at which the magnetic sensor can detect the magnetism.
2. The sheet processing apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a notification unit which notifies that the amount of magnetism is greater than or equal to the threshold value when the determination unit determines the amount of magnetism is greater than or equal to the threshold value.
3. The sheet processing apparatus according to claim 1 , comprising:
a conveyance mechanism which conveys a sheet to the detachable sheet housing part; and
a control unit which controls conveyor processing of the sheet by the conveyance mechanism, wherein the control unit disables the conveyor processing of the sheet when the determination unit determines that the amount of magnetism is greater than or equal to the threshold value.
4. The sheet processing apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the control unit causes an error signal to be transmitted to an external apparatus that manages an operation of the sheet processing apparatus when the determination unit determines the amount of magnetism is greater than or equal to the threshold value.
5. A sheet processing apparatus comprising:
a detachable sheet housing part in which a sheet is stacked and housed;
a placing plate which is arranged in the detachable sheet housing part and moves as a number of sheets stacked and housed is increased;
a magnetic body which is magnetized and disposed on the placing plate; and
a magnetic sensor disposed on a stand, which detachably supports the detachable sheet housing part, the magnetic sensor detecting magnetism from the magnetic body as the placing plate is moved to a predetermined position,
a determining unit comprising a central processor, which determines whether the amount of magnetism detected by the magnetic sensor is greater than or equal to a threshold value or not and which performs a predetermined processing based on the magnetism detected by the magnetic sensor;
a shield body disposed on a side of the detachable sheet housing part between the magnetic sensor and the magnetic body and extending along the side in a movement direction of the placing plate such that the magnetic sensor and the magnetic body do not directly face each other until the placing plate moves to the predetermined position,
wherein the magnetic body is moved with respect to the shield body as the placing plate moves and the threshold value is set in association with a position at which the magnetic sensor can detect the magnetism.
6. The sheet processing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the predetermined processing comprises notifying that magnetism in an amount greater than or equal to the threshold value has been detected.
7. The sheet processing apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the predetermined processing comprises transmitting an error signal to an external apparatus that manages an operation of the sheet processing apparatus.
8. The sheet processing apparatus according to claim 5 , comprising:
a conveyance mechanism which conveys a sheet to the detachable sheet housing part; and
a control device which controls the conveyance mechanism, wherein the predetermined processing comprises disabling processing of the sheet processing apparatus.
