Abstract
A paper sheet detection device includes: an optical sensor that includes a light-emitting portion that emits light, and a light-receiving portion that receives the emitted light; a storage portion that stores a first threshold value used for determining whether or not a paper sheet is present in a path of the emitted light, a target light-receiving level set as a target value of a level of the light received by the light-receiving portion in a state where the paper sheet is not present, and a second threshold value that is set to a value that is greater than the first threshold value and less than the target light-receiving level; an estimating portion that determines whether the level of the light received by the light-receiving portion is equal to or greater than the first threshold value and less than the second threshold value, and that estimates whether or not the paper sheet is present; and a light amount adjusting portion that adjusts an amount of the light emitted by the light-emitting portion so that the level of the light received by the light-receiving portion becomes the target light-receiving level in the state where the paper sheet is not present when the estimating portion estimates that the paper sheet is not present after the estimating portion determines that the level of the light received by the light-receiving portion is equal to or greater than the first threshold value and less than the second threshold value.
