A paper stacking apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a stacking table, a first sensor, and a hardware processor. The stacking table includes an upper face on which papers are stacked, the stacking table being capable of being elevated and lowered by a drive mechanism. The first sensor is disposed at a first position and configured to detect the upper face of the stacking table or an upper face of stacked objects stacked on the stacking table. The hardware processor is coupled to the drive mechanism and the first sensor. The hardware processor is configured to determine that the stacking table is excessively elevated when an elapsed time after starting to detect the object by the first sensor is at least a first excessive-elevation determination value of time.

According to one embodiment, a paper sheet processing apparatus includes a conveyance device with a conveyor belt, and an inspection device configured to inspect a paper sheet conveyed by the conveyor belt. The inspection device includes an image detection device configured to capture an image of the paper sheet and the conveyor belt and obtain an image of the paper sheet and the conveyor belt, an image processing device configured to detect a degradation level of the conveyor belt based on an belt image of the conveyor belt, and a controller configured to transmit information encouraging replacement of the conveyor belt to a monitor.

A measurement apparatus includes a sheet stacking portion provided above a first conveyance path and on which a second sheet discharged out of a second conveyance path is stacked. The sheet stacking portion includes an extension tray configured to support the sheet discharged out of the second conveyance path and to be movable between a first position and a second position, the first position being a position where the extension tray is located inside a width of the measurement apparatus in the horizontal direction, and the second position being a position where the extension tray is located above an upstream apparatus and is overlapped with the upstream apparatus when viewed in a gravity direction.
