1. A paper sheet handling apparatus comprising:
first and second facing sections that are disposed to face each other across an insertion/take-out space into which a paper sheet is inserted through an insertion/take-out port and from which a paper sheet is taken out through the insertion/take-out port; and
a partition section that is disposed between the first and second facing sections so as to be capable of moving in a facing direction in which the first and second facing sections face each other, forms, within the insertion/take-out space, an insertion space between the partition section and the first facing section into which a paper sheet is inserted through the insertion/take-out port, and forms, within the insertion/take-out space, a take-out space between the partition section and the second facing section from which a paper sheet is taken out through the insertion/take-out port, wherein
the partition section includes a movable member provided at a leading end portion of the partition section on an insertion/take-out port side and capable of moving toward each of the first facing section and the second facing section,
at a time of insertion of a paper sheet, the movable member moves toward the second facing section, with the partition section being located at an insertion position at which the partition section forms the insertion space between the partition section and the first facing section, and at a time of taking out a paper sheet, the movable member moves toward the first facing section, with the partition section being located at a take-out position at which the partition section forms the take-out space between the partition section and the second facing section, and
the paper sheet handling apparatus further comprises:
a first contact section that contacts the movable member so as to move the movable member toward the second facing section when the partition section is located at the insertion position; and
a second contact section that contacts the movable member so as to move the movable member toward the first facing section when the partition section is located at the take-out position.
