Paper sheet storing/feeding device

Abstract

The present invention provides a banknote storing/feeding device 23 that can increase a storing amount of banknotes while the device is made compact as a whole. The banknote storing/feeding device includes a winding roller 38 that winds and unwinds banknotes together with a tape 37, and a reel 40 that winds and unwinds the tape 37 with respect to the winding roller 38. The banknote storing/feeding device includes a motor 55 including a motor main body 56 disposed inside the winding roller 38, and a first drive axis 58 and a second drive axis 59 projecting from a first end portion side and a second end portion side of the motor main body 56. The banknote storing/feeding device includes a transmission mechanism 70 that transmits a drive force from the second drive axis 59 of the motor 55 to the reel 40. A drive force from the first drive axis 58 of the motor 55 is transmitted to the winding roller 38 to rotate the winding roller 38. A drive force of the second drive axis 59 of the motor 55 is transmitted to the reel 40 to rotate the reel 40.
