Abstract (en)

Provided is a medium stacker that can reliably feed out a housed card-shaped medium even if the coefficient of friction between the plurality of sheets of card-shaped medium housed in a stacked state is high. In the medium stacker (4), which houses a plurality of sheets of card-shaped medium (2) in a stacked manner, a medium feed-out opening (4j) that feeds out the bottom-most card-shaped medium (2) among the plurality of sheets of card-shaped medium (2) housed in the medium stacker (4) is formed at the bottom end of the medium stacker (4). When the feed-out direction side of the card-shaped medium (2) fed out from the medium feed-out opening (4j) is the front side and the reverse side in the feed-out direction of the card-shaped medium (2) is the back side, the medium stacker (4) is provided with: a front-side plate (4b) that configures the front-side surface of the medium stacker (4); and a back-side plate (4c) that configures the back-side surface of the medium stacker (4). At least the top edge side of the back-side plate (4c) is an inclined section (4m) that is inclined to the back side towards the top side, and the card-shaped medium (2), which is in the state of being housed in the medium stacker (4), contacts the inclined section (4m).
