1. A paper sheet handling apparatus, comprising:
a first opposing portion and a second opposing portion arranged to be opposed to each other;
a partition portion that is arranged so as to be movable in an opposing direction in which the first opposing portion and the second opposing portion are opposed to each other, forms an insertion space into which a paper sheet is inserted from an insertion port with the first opposing portion, and forms a taking-out space from which the paper sheet is taken out from the insertion port with the second opposing portion; and
a conveyor that conveys the paper sheet put in the insertion space in a state of protruding toward the insertion space from a first opening portion of the first opposing portion, and conveys the paper sheet left in the taking-out space in a state of protruding toward the taking-out space from the first opening portion of the first opposing portion and a second opening portion of the partition portion,
wherein the partition portion is arranged so as to be movable to a remaining banknote conveyance position when the paper sheet left in the taking-out space is conveyed by the conveyor, and
wherein the partition portion includes a second shutter that openably closes the second opening portion, and a second shutter opening/closing unit that opens the second opening portion by opening the second shutter in conjunction with an operation in which the partition portion moves to the remaining banknote conveyance position.
