To easily pick out paper sheets jammed in a paper sheet conveying route.

Normally, conveyer rollers 21 and 22 to convey paper sheets are separated by a connecting/disconnecting mechanism 27 when a jamming is generated, orthogonal conveyer rollers 32 and 33 are advanced on a paper sheet conveyer route 20, and the orthogonal conveyer rollers 32 and 33 are driven in the direction orthogonal with the rotating direction of the conveyer rollers 21 and 22. Consequently, when jamming or the like is disposed of, the paper sheets S are drawn to the near side from the deep side of the paper sheet conveyer route 20 by the orthogonal conveyer rollers 32 and 33.
