Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

This paper sheet processing device (100) for processing paper sheets is provided with: an identification unit (55) for identifying paper sheets; stacking units (60, 210) for stacking paper sheets on the basis of the content of classification types identified by the identification unit (55); and a control unit (50, 135, 550) that reads, from a memory unit (56, 136, 560) in which an upper limit of paper sheets to be stacked by the stacking units (60, 210) are stored in association with the content of classification types, the upper limit for paper sheets that correspond to the content of the classification types of the paper sheets stacked by the stacking units (60, 210), and sets the upper limit for paper sheets to be stacked by the stacking units (60, 210).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A paper sheet processing method comprising: identifying, by a sensor, details of a sort type of a paper sheet transported by a transport unit, stacking the paper sheet in one of plurality of stacking units based on the detail of the sort type of the paper sheet identified by the sensor, setting an upper limit number to limit a number of paper sheets to be stacked in each stacking unit based on a detail of the sort types of paper sheets to be stacked in the corresponding stacking unit, and when a number of paper sheets stacked in each stacking unit reaches the set upper limit number of paper sheets to be stacked in the corresponding stack, controlling the transport unit to stop the stacking of the paper sheet in the corresponding stacking unit, and stacking the paper in another stacking unit. 2. The paper sheet processing method according to claim 1 , further comprising: reading from a storage unit data on the upper limit number of paper sheets to be stacked in the stacking unit, the data being stored in the storage unit, and linked with the details of the sort type of the paper sheets; and setting the upper limit number to the number of paper sheets to be stacked in each stacking unit to the upper limit number read from the storage unit.
