An example disclosed output hopper includes a cavity to receive media units from an output of a media processing device, the cavity to cause the media units to form a stack in a first direction; a first door pivotably movable between a closed position and an open position, the first door to retain the media units in the cavity when in the closed position, wherein the first door is configured to pivot on a first axis substantially parallel to the first direction; wherein: the first door includes a first cutout at a first top edge of the first door; and the first cutout allow the media units to spill over the first and second top edges when a capacity of the cavity is exceeded.

A sheet postprocessing device includes a sheet conveying passage, a sheet tray, an inlet guide, a processing device, and a blowing device. Though the sheet conveying passage, a sheet on which an image has been formed is conveyed. The sheet tray is arranged downstream of the sheet conveying passage and has sheets stacked on it. The inlet guide is arranged at the downstream end of the sheet conveying passage and guides a sheet to the sheet tray. The processing device performs predetermined processing on a sheet stacked on the sheet tray. The blowing device blows air, from the upstream side in the sheet conveying direction, between the top face of the top-most sheet in the sheets stacked on the sheet tray and the bottom face of the subsequent sheet sent from the inlet guide into the sheet tray.

A post-processing device includes a carrying roller, a conveying member, a transporting member and a processing part. The carrying roller is configured to be rotated to carry a sheet one by one to a processing tray along a conveyance direction. The conveying member is configured to convey the sheet carried by the carrying roller to a receiving position on the processing tray. The conveying member has a rotation shaft and a plurality of contact pieces protruding from the rotation shaft so as to come into contact with the sheet carried on the processing tray. The contact piece is made of elastic material. The conveying member is rotated at a rotation speed higher than a rotation speed of the carrying roller when the sheet carried by the carrying roller is conveyed to the receiving position on the processing tray.

In laundry processing, a conveyor rotates a textile article in a first stage. The article is held while part of the article rests on the conveyor. By conveying while held, the textile article rotates, positioning an edge of the article. In a second stage, the conveyor conveys the article to a clamp. This clamp holds the article while the conveyor reverses direction and a blower attempts to flatten the article if folded. The textile article rotates, positioning the edge of the article to be more parallel with the direction of conveyance. In a third stage, the article is dragged by the edge over a gap where gravity and blowing attempt to flatten the article. In a fourth stage, the flattened article is positioned over a stack. A blower directs air at a center of the article to blow out the corners and assist in maintaining position.

A medium feeding device includes a medium placing portion, a feeding roller that feeds paper, a medium movement detecting portion that is positioned on a placing region of the paper of the medium placing portion in a medium feeding direction and is capable of detecting movement of the paper being fed in a width direction intersecting the medium feeding direction, and a controller that stops feeding of the paper in a case in which a physical quantity relating to movement of paper in the width direction exceeds a predetermined threshold based on a detected result by the medium movement detecting portion.

An example disclosed output hopper includes a cavity to receive media units from an output of a media processing device, the cavity to cause the media units to form a stack in a first direction; a first door pivotably movable between a closed position and an open position, the first door to retain the media units in the cavity when in the closed position; a second door movable between the closed position and the open position, the second door to retain the media units in the cavity when in the closed position; wherein the first door is configured to pivot on a first axis substantially parallel to the first direction; and the second door is configured to pivot on a second axis substantially parallel to the first direction.

The present invention discloses an assembled note-issuing device (100) and a self-service financial apparatus equipped therewith, comprising a base (10), a note container (20), a paper delivery assembly (30), a printing assembly (40) and a temporary storage assembly (50) that are arranged on the base (10) successively. The paper delivery assembly (30), the printing assembly (40) and the temporary storage assembly (50) are interconnected with the note container (20) through a note channel; the paper delivery assembly (30) delivers the notes in the note container (20) to the printing assembly (40) through the note channel for printing, and the printing assembly (40) transfers the printed notes to the temporary storage assembly (50) for temporary storage.

A medium feeding device includes a medium placing portion, a feeding roller that feeds paper, a medium movement detecting portion that is positioned on a placing region of the paper of the medium placing portion in a medium feeding direction and is capable of detecting movement of the paper being fed in a width direction intersecting the medium feeding direction, and a controller that stops feeding of the paper in a case in which a physical quantity relating to movement of paper in the width direction exceeds a predetermined threshold based on a detected result by the medium movement detecting portion.

The sheet postprocessing device includes a sheet conveyance path, a sheet tray, a carry-in guide, a processing part, a discharge member, a blower device, and an intermediate conveyance part. The sheet tray includes an upstream-side stacking part. The intermediate conveyance part is provided at a position within a range from the upstream-side stacking part to the downstream-side stacking part in a conveyance direction, and allows a sheet to pass therethrough below the processing part. The intermediate conveyance part is made up by including an upstream part including a first clearance through which the sheet passes, and a downstream part placed on a downstream side of the upstream part and including a second clearance through which the sheet passes. A size of the second clearance in a planar direction perpendicular to a surface of the sheet is wider than a size of the first clearance in the planar direction.
