PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sheetlike medium conveyance device capable of being miniaturized, in particular, making it thin easily and facilitating conveyance of sheetlike mediums having different thickness. SOLUTION: Guides 5a, 5b are provided at width of the sheetlike medium 3 on a base 1, parts protruding from an outer side from the guides 5a, 5b are used as support bases 9a, 9b, and support parts 11, 13 are provided on the support bases 9a, 9b. A shaft 7 is arranged on the base 1, and shaft 7 parts protruding onto an outer side from the guides 5a, 5b are supported on the support parts 11, 13. An annular vibration wave transducer 17 causes progressive vibration waves progressing in the circumferential direction on its upper face side and is fixed on the base 1. A rotary roller 15 is fixed to the shaft 7 and is elastically brought into pressure contact with a part along the direction of conveyance of the sheetlike medium 3 on an upper face of the vibration wave transducer 17.
