<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a compression device capable of compressing and discharging paper sheet pieces without clogging of the paper sheet pieces, and easy to change the degree of compression. <P>SOLUTION: The compression device includes a compression chamber 304 having a carry-in port and a discharge port of paper sheet pieces, and a paper sheet piece compression mechanism part 331 arranged at the carry-in port. An openable/closable pressure wall 309, and a pressing member 310 for applying a predetermined pressure in the closing direction of the pressure wall are arranged at the discharge port of the compression chamber. The compression chamber is, for example, a cylindrical member having no step in the inside diameter. The carry-in chamber and the discharge port are arranged to face each other, and the paper sheet piece compression mechanism part has a structure of applying the force for pressing the paper sheet pieces from the carry-in port toward the pressure wall of the discharge port. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
