る。 As explained above, the present invention holds the paper bills received by the paper bill holding box by supporting the lower surface of the side edges thereof, and presses the paper bills in the surface direction. Since the paper bills are transferred to the paper bill placement section, which is the upper surface of the article, by being discharged from the discharge port, the paper bills can be reliably transferred without causing any displacement. In addition, the transfer head equipped with a paper bill holding box is lowered to a position where it maintains a predetermined distance from the paper bill placement section of the article, and the paper bills are discharged at this position. It is possible to reliably transfer articles even if the height of the tag placement part is not constant. Furthermore, at least two detectors for detecting the paper bill placement section are attached to the transfer head, and the transfer head is controlled to stop when all of these detectors detect the paper bill placement section. Therefore, when the paper bill placement section is tilted, the transfer head can be brought closer to the paper bill placement section compared to when the paper bill placement section is not tilted. For this reason, the falling distance of paper bills is shorter than when there is no inclination, and when paper bills are placed on the paper bill placement section, it is difficult for the paper bills to slip and become misaligned, making it more stable. This is particularly useful for items that tend to tilt, such as stacked mail. Additionally, since the detector is attached to the transfer head, it is possible to detect gaps and inclinations closer to the area where paper bills and other items are being transferred, resulting in more stable transfer conditions. play.
