CARD STACKER DEVICE

摘要

A card stacker device having two stacker sections, which is reduced in size by decreasing the number of parts and simplifying the structure of the device, thereby the device can receive as many cards (C) as possible despite that fact that the device with a occupies a smaller space. A stacker section for receiving the cards (C) in a stacked manner is partitioned by a partition section (11) into upper and lower sections. The direction of introduction of a card (C) inserted from a card insertion/discharge opening (35) is branched by a branch drive roller (32) to the upper stacker section (12) and the lower stacker section (13). A conveyance drive roller (24) provided at the partition section (11) switches the destination of the card between the stacker sections and causes the card to be received in the destination stacker section. The conveyance drive roller (24) switches a stacker section to an issuer stacker section and sends out and issues a card (C) by the conveyance drive roller (24).
