A BANKNOTE DETECTING UNIT FOR A BANKNOTE DISTINGUISHING DEVICE

摘要

The present invention is to reduce the establishing space for the transmitting section and the reflecting section. To that effect a banknote detecting unit for banknote distinguishing device comprises a transmitting sensor which includes a light emitting section and a light receiving section which is located on an light axis of the light emitting section and opposite to the banknote passageway. A reflecting sensor includes a light transmitting section and a light receiving section which are located at one side to the banknote passageway. A first transmitting sensor is structured by a first light axis of a first light emitting section which slants to the banknote passageway and a first light receiving section which is located on the first light axis and is located opposite the first light emitting section, a first reflecting sensor which is structured by the first light emitting section and a second light receiving section which is located at the same side of the first emitting section to the banknote passageway.
