To easily open and close a part where a bill is easily jammed in a bill carrying path while achieving compactness and simplification of the apparatus.SOLUTION: A bill guide member 71 guides a bill moving at a predetermined intermediate position P0 of a bill transport path 60. A first support member 72 swingably supports the bill guide member 71 between a first posture and a second posture. A second support member 74 rotatably supports the first support member 72 from a reference position at which the bill guide member 71 is positioned at the intermediate position P0 to a release position where an access path from the bill guide member 71 to the intermediate position P0 is released. A bill transport path 60 includes a first bill transport path 60a extending from a first bill entry and exit port 611 to the intermediate position P0, a second bill transport path extending from a second bill entry and exit port 612 to the intermediate position P0, and a third bill transport path 60c extending from the intermediate position P0 to a bill accommodation section 62.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4 【課題】装置のコンパクト化および簡素化を実現しつつ、紙幣搬送路における紙幣が詰まりやすい部分を容易に開閉できること。【解決手段】紙幣案内部材７１は、紙幣搬送路６０の予め定められた中間位置Ｐ０において移動中の紙幣を案内する。第１支持部材７２は、前記紙幣案内部材７１を第１姿勢と第２姿勢との間で揺動可能に支持する。第２支持部材７４は、前記第１支持部材７２を、前記紙幣案内部材７１が前記中間位置Ｐ０に位置する基準位置から、前記紙幣案内部材７１が前記中間位置Ｐ０へのアクセス経路が解放される解放位置へ回動可能に支持する。前記紙幣搬送路６０は、第１紙幣入出口６１１から前記中間位置Ｐ０に至る第１紙幣搬送路６０ａと、第２紙幣入出口６１２から前記中間位置Ｐ０に至る第２紙幣搬送路と、前記中間位置Ｐ０から紙幣収容部６２に至る第３紙幣搬送路６０ｃとを含む。【選択図】図４
