To provide a belt-reversing system paper sheet-conveying device having high reliability capable of securing necessary paper sheet-holding force with a simple configuration.
A paper sheet-conveying device 80 includes: a first belt conveyance section 81 in which a first belt 813 is wrapped around a first entrance pulley 811 disposed on an upstream side in a paper sheet conveying direction and a first exit pulley 812 disposed on a downstream side in the paper sheet conveying direction, in a crossed belt state; and the second belt conveyance section 82 having a configuration similar to that of the first belt conveyance section. The first belt conveyance section and the second belt conveyance section are disposed crossing each other so that a conveyance surface of the first belt and a conveyance surface of the second belt are brought into contact with each other, and, sandwiching the paper sheet by the respective conveyance surfaces, convey the paper sheet while reversing it. By mutually deviating positions in a width direction of the first belt conveyance section and the second belt conveyance section, the paper-sheet holding force in the reversing part is increased.
