Abstract

In order to perform recovery processing operation of bad situation of a conveying path used for inversion, a medium processing device (1) is provided with a device main body portion (2), an inversion unit (3) which can be installed around a predetermined on-off center line (40) in an on-off manner relative to the device main body portion (2). The device main body portion (2) is provided with main body side conveying path (13) which conveys sheet medium (P), and a medium processing portion (22) which performs specific processing on the medium (P) conveyed along the main body side conveying path (13). The inversion unit (3) is provided with the conveying path (14) used for inversion which makes the positive surface and the negative surface of the medium (P) sent in from the main body side conveying path (13) invert, so that the medium (P) is retured to the main body side conveying path (13). If the inversion unit (3) is opened, a part of the conveying path (14) used for inversion is in an open state.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a medium processing device provided with a conveyance path for reversing for reversing a sheet-shaped medium such as recording paper and feeding it out. Background technique [0002] As such a medium processing apparatus provided with a conveyance path for reversing, a printer with a double-sided automatic printing function, a scanner with a double-sided automatic reading function, a facsimile, and other electronic devices are known. For example, in a printer equipped with a double-sided automatic printing function, after printing is performed on the front side of recording paper, the front side and the back side are reversed via a reversing conveyance path, and printing is performed on the back side. [0003] The conveyance path for inversion may be integrated with the main body of the printer in some cases. In addition, the reversing unit provided with the conveyance path for reversing may be detachably attached to t...
