A medium processing device includes a conveyance guide that forms first, second and third conveyance paths that intersect, a blade configured to be rotatable around a blade center point, and that switches a conveyance route of the medium by connecting any two of the three conveyance paths with each other, and a first pair, second pair and third pair of conveyance rollers that are rotatable and are configured to hand off the medium between two conveyance paths connected by the blade. The first pair of conveyance rollers includes a first roller and a second roller. The second roller is closer than the first roller to the third pair of conveyance rollers. A radius of the second roller is larger than a radius of the first roller. A first center holding distance is different from one or both of a second center holding distance and a third center holding distance.

A medium transport apparatus includes a first and a second transport path, a third transport path formed the first transport path and the second transport path merging at a merging point, a door that is displaceable between a closed state in which the door forms at least a portion of the first transport path and an opened state in which at least a portion of the first transport path is opened, and a switching section that is arranged at the merging point and that is, while the door is in the closed state, displaceable between a first state in which the second transport path is opened and a second state in which the first transport path is opened, wherein when the door is in the opened state, the switching section is displaced to a third state in which at least a portion of the second transport path is opened.

A sheet handling apparatus includes: a transport path along which a sheet is transported; a first transport member disposed on one side of the transport path; and a second transport member disposed opposed to the first transport member with the transport path interposed therebetween. The first transport member and the second transport member are driven to rotate. The sheet is transported by the first transport member rotating with an outer peripheral surface thereof being in contact with a first face of the sheet, and by the second transport member rotating in a direction opposite to a rotation direction of the first transport member, with an outer peripheral surface thereof being in contact with a second face of the sheet different from the first face.

A sheet feed device comprises a first conveyance path and a second conveyance path which are different sheet conveyance paths, and a conveyance path merging section for merging the first conveyance path and the second conveyance path together. At least one of the first conveyance path and the second conveyance path includes an upstream side roller that feeds sheet to downstream side in a conveyance direction. The conveyance path merging section comprises a conveyance roller pair that conveys the sheet fed from the first conveyance path and the second conveyance path through a nip; a variable mechanism that makes an arrangement angle of one roller of the conveyance roller pair to the other roller thereof variable; and a transmission mechanism that transmits a driving force from the upstream side roller provided in one of the first conveyance path and the second conveyance path to the variable mechanism.

Disclosed are a sheet-type medium conveying device and a cash recycling and handling apparatus. The sheet-type medium conveying device includes a first passage plate, a second passage plate and a driving mechanism. The first passage plate and the second passage plate are oppositely arranged. A passage is formed between the first passage plate and the second passage plate, and configured for a sheet-type medium to pass through. The driving mechanism is configured to drive a first end of the first passage plate and a first end of the second passage plate to get close to or away from each other.

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a transport unit that transports a medium along a transport path, a liquid ejecting head that performs recording on the transported medium by ejecting liquid from a nozzle formed at a nozzle surface, a mounting portion on which a liquid storage portion for storing the liquid supplied to the liquid ejecting head is mounted, and a first discharge port that delivers the medium on which the recording is performed toward a media processing apparatus that performs processing on the medium, in which the mounting portion is disposed at a position higher than the nozzle surface, and a first transport path which is a portion of the transport path from a position corresponding to the liquid ejecting head to the first discharge port passes above the mounting portion.

A rotary solenoid includes: a fixed body portion having a casing in which a pair of bearing portions and positioned on front and rear sides are provided; and a movable body portion having a rotation shaft rotatably supported by the pair of bearing portions. The fixed body portion includes: the casing formed of a magnetic material; and an air-cored coil of which the surface orthogonal to an axial direction of the rotation shaft is fixed to an inner surface of the casing. The movable body portion includes: a rotor yoke having one end fixed to the rotation shaft; and a magnet portion having a pair of magnets and fixed to an opposing surface positioned on the other end side of the rotor yoke serving as a surface opposing the air-cored coil and disposed along a rotation direction of the opposing surface.

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a transport unit that transports a medium along a transport path, a liquid ejecting head that performs recording on the transported medium by ejecting liquid from a nozzle formed at a nozzle surface, a mounting portion on which a liquid storage portion for storing the liquid supplied to the liquid ejecting head is mounted, and a first discharge port that delivers the medium on which the recording is performed toward a media processing apparatus that performs processing on the medium, in which the mounting portion is disposed at a position higher than the nozzle surface, and a first transport path which is a portion of the transport path from a position corresponding to the liquid ejecting head to the first discharge port passes above the mounting portion.
