Article processing apparatus and downstream apparatus

A downstream apparatus that receives an article discharged from an article processing apparatus disposed upstream, the downstream apparatus processing the article, the downstream apparatus comprising:

• a display;
• a capturing unit that is disposed in a position having an internal view of and through an outlet of a discharge chute directly from an upstream side to a downstream side in a conveyance direction of the article, and that captures a picture including at least part of the article processing apparatus;
• and
• a controller that displays, in a case where a processing operation of the article remains stopped in the downstream apparatus, on the display, the picture captured by the capturing unit,
• wherein the controller displays, on the display, the picture captured by the capturing unit as a picture for adjustment of a positional relationship between the article processing apparatus and the downstream apparatus.

An article processing apparatus that discharges an article to a downstream apparatus disposed downstream, the article processing apparatus comprising:

• a display;
• a capturing unit that captures a picture including at least part of the downstream apparatus;
• a controller that displays, in a case where a processing operation of the article remains stopped in the article processing apparatus, on the display, the picture captured by the capturing unit;
• a hopper that temporarily accumulates the article input from outside;
• and
• a discharge chute that slides down the article discharged from the hopper, to the downstream apparatus,
• wherein the picture includes a picture of an outlet of the discharge chute viewed from an upstream side to a downstream side in a conveyance direction of the article, and
• the controller displays, on the display, a guide for use in adjustment of a positional relationship between the outlet and a conveyance unit in the downstream apparatus, together with the picture.
