Accordingly, for example, when binding every 500 sheets of stacked banknotes manually, worker is not needed to count the number of banknotes and work efficiency can be improved.
  • the distribution of thickness (the printed portion a) of banknotes as banknotes P exists not only in the lateral direction shown in FIG. 17 but also in the vertical direction as shown in FIG. 19. That is, there is a difference in the thickness of banknotes P between the right half and the left half as well as between the upper half and the lower half.
  • the thickness of stacked banknotes can be made uniform by exchanging the left and right portions of banknotes whenever banknotes P are stacked in the prescribed number of sheets.
  • the thickness of the upper and lower portions can be made uniform by turning over the upper and lower portions each other.
  • the thickness distribution of banknotes P depends upon kind of banknote P (face value). Accordingly, it is possible to determine a proper stack switching method according to a face value of banknote P discriminated by the discriminator 9. Further, depending upon the post processing method of stacked banknotes P, they can be stacked without turning over the front/back sides as shown in FIG. 18 and FIG. 20.

Thereafter, the vertical distribution/lateral distribution table for the kind of the banknote is referred to (Step S22). Then, whether a table value is 0 is discriminated (Step S23). When the table value is discriminated to be 0, the vertical operation pattern 2 (or 3) of the switching pattern table is selected (Step S24) and the contents of operation for the banknote direction is acquired from the switching pattern table (Step S25). Then, whether the banknote P should be passed through the switchback path 19 (Step S26) is discriminated.
  • Step S27 When the banknote P is discriminated that it should be passed through the switchback path 19, the reversing operation of the banknote P is carried out by the switchback path 19 (Step S27). Then, whether the banknotes should be passed through the twist belt 15 is discriminated (Step S28). When it is discriminated that the banknotes should be passed through the twist belt 15, the banknote is reversed by the twist belt 15 (Step S29). Further, when it is discriminated that a table value is not 0 in Step 23, the lateral distribution operation pattern 4 (or 5) of the switching pattern table is selected and the operations subsequent to Step 25 are carried out.
  • the vertical and lateral thickness distribution patterns corresponding to kinds of banknotes are pre-set and the operating patterns of the gates 11, 13 and 18 corresponding to the discriminated thickness distribution patterns are selected, and therefore, there are such merits that the operating patterns are selectable without especially reading and discriminating a banknote thickness distribution pattern and process efficiency is promoted.
  • the conveying path is changed by operating the gate whenever the prescribed number of banknotes are stacked in a stacker and the direction of succeeding banknotes that are stacked in the stacker are reversed against the banknotes already stacked. Therefore, the uneven height of stacked banknotes is eliminated and accordingly, generation of crumbling of stacked banknotes can be prevented and paper-like material arranging work efficiency can be improved.
  • the stacking position of succeeding banknote stacked in the stacker is displaced against the already stacked banknotes whenever the banknotes are stacked to a prescribed number of sheets, stacked banknotes can be sorted in a prescribed number of sheets without counting stacked banknotes as before. Accordingly, when binding banknotes in a prescribed number of sheets, work efficiency can be promoted.
  • a thickness distribution pattern of paper-like material according to its kind is pre-set, the thickness distribution pattern is discriminated according to its kind, and an operating pattern of a gate corresponding to this discriminated distribution pattern is selected. Therefore, an operating pattern can be selected without especially reading and discriminating a banknote thickness distribution pattern and process efficiency can be improved.
