PURPOSE:To avoid impact between the downstream side end part in the reenclosing direction of a sheet body conveyed for reenclosing and the upstream side end part of an already enclosed sheet body by providing a driving member for separating the vicinity of the reenclosing side end part of the already enclosed sheet body from a reenclosing conveyor means across the whole surface. CONSTITUTION:When the conveyance of a document Do is terminated and the document Do is conveyed along a guide plate 47, the conveyance of the document Do onto the guide plate is detected by a photo detecting element S1 provided on the guide plate 47. When the downstream end in the reenclosing direction of the document Do is detected, the solenoid SOL1 of a driving member 24 is switched into the magnetized state, so that a moving piece 43 is sucked into the solenoid SOL1. Accordingly, the lever piece 39 of the driving member 24 is rotated around a fulcrum 40, and the end part of the enclosing means of a base part 46 moves along the surface of the guide plate 47 and is disposed on the peripheral surface of a roller 38 and on the upper side in the accumulating direction. As a result, the conveyed document Do is inserted into the lowest position in the accumulating direction of the already stacked documents D.
