Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Behälter zur Aufnahme von Wertscheinen in einem Wertscheinausgabegerät mit einem Verschließbaren Gehäuse, das eine Einlaßöffnung für die Wertscheine hat, wobei in oder nahe der Einlaßöffnung zwei einen Einzugsspalt begrenzende, zum Einzug von Wertscheinen zusammenwirkende antreibbare Walzen angeordnet sind, nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a container for holding notes of value in a note dispenser with a closable housing, which has an inlet opening for the notes, two or two drivable rollers, which delimit an inlet gap and cooperate for the entry of notes, are arranged in or near the inlet opening, according to the preamble of Claim 1.

In Wertscheinausgabegeräten ist in der Regel ein Behälter vorgesehen, der die Aufgabe hat, einzelne Wertscheine oder Bündel derartiger Wertscheine aufzunehmen, die aufgrund irgendeiner Fehlfunktion oder Störung in dem Wertscheinausgabegerät nicht an den Kunden ausgegeben werden sollen oder können. Diese Wertscheine werden in den bisher üblichen Behältern, den sogenannten Reject-Kassetten nicht separierbar gesammelt.A container is usually provided in note issuing devices, which has the task of holding individual notes or bundles of such notes that should not or cannot be issued to the customer due to any malfunction or malfunction in the note issuing device. These notes of value are not separably collected in the hitherto usual containers, the so-called reject cassettes.

In der Praxis sind nun auch Fälle aufgetreten, in denen beispielsweise ein Banknotenbündel korrekt zusammengestellt verbucht, und dem Kunden zur Verfügung gestellt wurde, so daß er das Banknotenbündel hätte entnehmen können, dies jedoch nicht oder nicht vollständig getan hat. In diesem Fall wird gefordert, daß die bereitgestellten, aber nicht entnommenen Banknoten nach Ablauf einer vorgegebenen Zeitspanne wieder eingezogen werden. Würden Sie nun in die herkömmliche Reject-Kassette überführt, so könnten sie dem einzelnen Kunden nicht mehr zugeordnet werden. Es wäre nicht mehr feststellbar, ob der Kunde nun tatsächlich die für ihn bereitgestellten Banknoten vollständig entnommen hat oder nicht.In practice, cases have now also occurred in which, for example, a bundle of banknotes has been correctly compiled and made available to the customer so that he could have removed the bundle of banknotes can, but has not or has not done so completely. In this case, it is required that the banknotes made available but not removed are drawn in again after a predetermined period of time. If you were now transferred to the conventional reject cassette, you could no longer be assigned to the individual customer. It would no longer be possible to determine whether the customer has actually completely removed the banknotes made available to him or not.

Aus der DE-A-36 16 784 ist ein Behälter zur Aufnahme von Wertscheinen nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 bekannt. Der Behälter hat mehrere Fächer zur Aufnahme der Wertscheine. Die Aufnahmeöffnungen der Fächer können selektiv mit dem Einzugsspalt, in welchem die Wertscheine gehalten sind, verbunden werden.From DE-A-36 16 784 a container for holding notes of value according to the preamble of claim 1 is known. The container has several compartments to hold the banknotes. The receiving openings of the compartments can be selectively connected to the feed slot in which the notes of value are held.

Durch die DE-A-3 022 066 ist eine Vorrichtung zur Geldbevorratung bekannt. Die Vorrichtung enthält mehrere um eine Achse verschwenkbare Fächer.From DE-A-3 022 066 a device for storing money is known. The device contains several compartments which can be pivoted about an axis.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Behälter der eingangs genannten Art anzugeben, der es möglich macht, Wertscheine zurückzunehmen, so daß sie später einer bestimmten Transaktion zugeordnet werden können.The invention has for its object to provide a container of the type mentioned, which makes it possible to take back notes so that they can later be assigned to a specific transaction.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is solved by the features of claim 1.

Eines der Fächer kann dazu bestimmt werden, alle diejenigen Wertscheine aufzunehmen, bei denen eine Zuordnung zu einer bestimmten Transaktion nicht erforderlich ist. Die restlichen Fächer können dann zur Aufnahme von Wertscheinen bestimmt werden, die später wieder einer bestimmten Transaktion zugeordnet werden müssen. Da die Anzahl dieser Vorgänge innerhalb von 24 Stunden in der Regel begrenzt ist, reicht auch eine beschränkte Anzahl von Fächern.One of the compartments can be designated to hold all those securities for which an assignment to a particular transaction is not required. The remaining subjects can then be determined to hold notes of value, which later have to be assigned to a specific transaction. Since the number of these processes is usually limited within 24 hours, a limited number of subjects is also sufficient.

Eines der Fächer ist von einem Abteil des Gehäuses gebildet, während die übrigen Fächer durch zum Einzugsspalt parallele Fachwände voneinander getrennt in einem Rahmen ausgebildet sind, der in dem Gehäuse um eine zum Einzugsspalt parallele Schwenkachse derart schwenkbar gelagert ist, daß die Aufnahmeöffnungen der Fächer beim Verschwenken des Rahmens nacheinander in Flucht mit dem Einzugsspalt bringbar sind. Alle Wertscheine, die nicht einer bestimmten Transaktion zugeordnet werden müssen, werden in das Gehäuseabteil geleitet. Die Wertscheine oder Wertscheinbündel, bei denen eine Identifizierung möglich sein soll, werden dagegen in die in dem verschwenkbaren Rahmen ausgebildeten Fächer geleitet, in dem vor dem Einziehen des Wertscheins oder des Wertscheinbündels das entsprechende Fach mit dem Einzugsspalt in Flucht gebracht wird. Die Fachnummer wird der Transaktion zugeordnet, so daß der Fachinhalt später dem Kunden übergeben oder gutgeschrieben werden kann.One of the compartments is formed by a compartment of the housing, while the remaining compartments by Feed gap parallel compartment walls are formed separately from one another in a frame which is pivotally mounted in the housing about a pivot axis parallel to the feed gap such that the receiving openings of the compartments can be brought into alignment with the feed gap when the frame is pivoted. All notes of value that do not have to be assigned to a specific transaction are directed into the housing compartment. The notes of value or bundles of notes for which identification should be possible, on the other hand, are directed into the compartments formed in the pivotable frame, in which the relevant compartment is brought into alignment with the feed gap before the note or bundle of notes is drawn in. The subject number is assigned to the transaction so that the subject content can later be handed over to the customer or credited.

Um einen einwandfreien Eintritt des Wertschein- oder Banknotenbündels in das jeweilige Fach Sicherzustellen, ist es zweckmäßig, wenn an dem dem Einzugsspalt zugewandten Rand jeder Fachwand Zungen ausgeformt sind, die in komplementäre Umfangsnuten an einer Einzugswalze eingreifen. Damit wird ein lückenloser Übergang der Wertscheine vom Einzugsspalt in das jeweilige Fach geschaffen. Damit die Banknoten an den zwischen den Zungen liegenden Randabschnitten nicht hängenbleiben können, ist es zweckmäßig, wenn diese Randabschnitte schräg zur Richtung des Einzugsspaltes gerichtet sind.In order to ensure a correct entry of the bundle of notes or banknotes into the respective compartment, it is expedient if tongues are formed on the edge of each compartment wall facing the feed gap, which tongues engage in complementary circumferential grooves on a feed roller. This creates a seamless transition of the banknotes from the feed slot into the respective compartment. So that the banknotes cannot get caught on the edge sections lying between the tongues, it is expedient if these edge sections are directed obliquely to the direction of the feed gap.

Sollen die Wertscheine in das allgemeine Aufnahmefach, d.h. das Gehäuseabteil geleitet werden, so kann dies auf einfache Weise dadurch geschehen, daß der Rahmen aus dem Weg des Einzugsspaltes herausgeschwenkt wird, wobei der verschwenkbare Rahmen an einer Außenseite mit einer Leitfläche versehen ist, die in dieser Endstellung des Rahmens die eingezogenen Wertscheine vom Einzugsspalt unmittelbar in das Gehäuseabteil leitet. Ein eigener Transportmechanismus für die Wertscheine ist dabei nicht erforderlich.If the notes of value are to be directed into the general receiving compartment, ie the housing compartment, this can be done in a simple manner by pivoting the frame out of the way of the feed gap. wherein the pivotable frame is provided on an outer side with a guide surface which in this end position of the frame guides the retracted notes of value directly from the feed gap into the housing compartment. A separate transport mechanism for the vouchers is not required.

Die Verstellung des Rahmens kann mittels eines Schrittmotors erfolgen, wobei die Rückstellung durch eine Feder bewirkt werden kann. Um das jeweilige Fach identifizieren zu können, sind Tastelemente zum Erfassen der jeweiligen Stellung des Rahmens vorgesehen, wobei der Rahmen Codemarkierungen oder auch nur Zählmarken tragen kann, die beim Verstellen des Rahmens abgetastet werden.The frame can be adjusted by means of a stepper motor, whereby the resetting can be effected by a spring. In order to be able to identify the respective compartment, pushbuttons are provided for detecting the respective position of the frame, the frame being able to carry code markings or only counter marks which are scanned when the frame is adjusted.

Um eine möglichst raumsparende Anordnung zu erhalten, kann mindestens ein Teil der Fachwände um eine zur Schwenkachse des Rahmens parallele Achse an diesem schwenkbar gelagert sein. Dadurch ist es möglich, die Fächer flach zusammenzulegen, solange sie nicht benötigt werden. Nähere Einzelheiten werden noch in der folgenden Beschreibung erläutert.In order to obtain the most space-saving possible arrangement, at least some of the compartment walls can be pivotably mounted on the frame about an axis parallel to the pivot axis. This makes it possible to fold the compartments flat as long as they are not needed. Further details are explained in the following description.

Bei herkömmlichen Reject-Kassetten ist die Entnahme der aufgenommenen Wertscheine einfach, wenn der Deckel der Kassette geöffnet wurde. Um auch bei der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung eine einfache Entnahme der in den Fächern gespeicherten Wertscheine zu ermöglichen, kann gemäß einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung der Rahmen in eine Entnahmestellung verschwenkt werden, in der die Aufnahmeöffnungen der Fächer durch die Öffnung des Gehäuses hindurch zugänglich sind.With conventional reject cassettes, it is easy to remove the notes of value once the lid of the cassette has been opened. In order to enable easy removal of the notes of value stored in the compartments in the solution according to the invention, according to a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, the frame can be pivoted into a removal position in which the receiving openings of the compartments are accessible through the opening of the housing.

Da die Fächer in der Regel relativ schmal und dennoch tief sind, ist erfindungsgemäß an dem Rahmen ein parallel zur Entnahmerichtung der Wertscheine verschiebbarer Schieber gelagert, der mit einem Schenkel parallele Schlitze in den Fachwänden durchsetzt und zur Auflage der in die Fächer eingeführten Wertscheine dient. Durch ein Verschieben des Schiebers in Entnahmerichtung werden die Wertscheine in den Fächern angehoben, so daß sie leicht erfaßt und herausgenommen werden können.Since the compartments are generally relatively narrow and still deep, a slide which can be displaced parallel to the direction of removal of the notes of value is mounted on the frame according to the invention, with one leg passing through parallel slots in the compartment walls and serving to support the notes of value inserted into the compartments. By moving the slide in the removal direction, the notes of value in the compartments are raised so that they can be easily grasped and removed.

Die folgende Beschreibung erläutert in Verbindung mit den beigefügten Figuren die Erfindung anhand eines Ausführungsbeispieles. Es zeigen:

Die in Figur 1 allgemein mit 10 bezeichnete Reject-Kassette umfaßt ein im wesentlichen quaderförmiges Gehäuse 12 mit einer Öffnung 14, die durch einen Deckel 16 verschlossen ist. Die manipulationssichere Verriegelung des Deckels 16 an dem Gehäuse 12 ist an sich bekannt und braucht hier nicht näher beschrieben zu werden.The reject cassette, generally designated 10 in FIG. 1, comprises a substantially cuboid housing 12 with an opening 14 which is closed by a cover 16. The tamper-proof locking of the cover 16 on the housing 12 is known per se and need not be described in more detail here.

An der vorderen oderen Ecke ist der Behälter 12 abgeschrägt. In der Schrägfläche 18 befindet sich eine schlitzförmige Einlaßöffnung 20, an der eine Transportbahn für Banknoten endet, wenn die Reject-Kassette in einen Geldausgabeautomaten eingeschoben wird. Innerhalb des Gehäuses 12 sind nahe der Einlaßöffnung 20 und parallel zu deren Längsrichtung zwei Einzugswalzen 22 und 24 so gelagert, daß sie zusammen einen Einzugsspalt 26 bilden. Die Einzugswalzen 22 sind durch einen nicht dargestellten Antrieb antreibbar. Die Einzugswalze 24 ist senkrecht zu ihrer Achse auslenkbar, so daß durch den Einzugsspalt nicht nur Einzelblätter, sondern auch Bündel von Banknoten eingezogen werden können. Die soweit beschriebene Kassette ist an sich bekannt.The container 12 is chamfered at the front or corner. In the inclined surface 18 there is a slot-shaped inlet opening 20, at which a transport path for banknotes ends when the reject cassette is inserted into an automatic teller machine. Within the housing 12 near the inlet opening 20 and parallel to its longitudinal direction, two feed rollers 22 and 24 are mounted so that together they form a feed nip 26. The feed rollers 22 can be driven by a drive, not shown. The feed roller 24 can be deflected perpendicular to its axis, so that not only single sheets but also bundles of banknotes can be drawn in through the feed gap. The cassette described so far is known per se.

In der vorderen Hälfte des Gehäuses 12 ist um eine zum Einzugsspalt 26 parallele Achse 28 ein allgemein mit 30 bezeichneter Fächerspeicher schwenkbar gelagert. Der Fächerspeicher umfaßt einen Rahmen 32 mit zwei zu der Achse 28 senkrechten Seitenwangen 34 und einer diese verbindenden Rückwand 36, sowie eine Mehrzahl von Fachwänden 38. Die Fachwände und die Rückwand 32 begrenzen zusammen fünf Fächer, die zur Aufnahme von Banknoten bestimmt sind. Die beiden von der Rückwand 36 am weitesten entfernten Fachwände 38 sind an den Seitenwangen 34 um zur Achse 28 parallele Achsen 40, 42 schwenkbar gelagert. Der Sinn dieser Maßnahme wird anhand der Figur 2 noch näher erläutert. An der Außenseite der äußersten Fachwand 38 ist ein Leitblech 44 befestigt, das dazu dient, durch den Einzugsspalt 26 eingezogene Banknoten in der in Figur 1 dargestellten Weise abzulenken, so daß sie auf eine Auflagefläche 46 eines mit 48 bezeichneten allgemeinen Sammelfaches in dem Gehäuse 12 fallen. Hier werden alle Banknoten gesammelt, die nicht einer bestimmten Transaktion zugeordnet werden müssen.In the front half of the housing 12, a fan store, generally designated 30, is pivotably mounted about an axis 28 parallel to the feed gap 26. The fan store comprises a frame 32 with two side walls 34 perpendicular to the axis 28 and one of these connecting rear wall 36, and a plurality of compartment walls 38. The compartment walls and the rear wall 32 together delimit five compartments which are intended for receiving banknotes. The two most distant compartment walls 38 from the rear wall 36 are pivotally mounted on the side walls 34 about axes 40, 42 parallel to the axis 28. The meaning of this measure is explained in more detail with reference to FIG. 2. Attached to the outside of the outermost compartment wall 38 is a guide plate 44, which serves to deflect banknotes drawn in through the insertion gap 26 in the manner shown in FIG. 1, so that they fall onto a support surface 46 of a general collecting compartment denoted by 48 in the housing 12 . All banknotes that do not have to be assigned to a specific transaction are collected here.

Sollen dagegen einzelne Banknoten oder Banknotenbündel einer bestimmten Transaktion des Geldausgabeautomaten zugeordnet werden, so daß man das Geld später an einen Kunden ausgeben oder ihm gutschreiben kann, so werden diese Banknoten nicht in dem allgemeinen Sammelfach 48, sondern in einem der mit den römischen Zahlen I bis V bezeichneten Fächer des Fächerspeichers 30 abgelegt. Hierzu wird dieser um seine Achse 28 zunächst in die in der Figur 2 dargestellte Stellung verschwenkt. Zum Verschwenken dient ein Antriebsmechanismus mit einem Schrittmotor 50, der über ein Getriebe 52 eine Riemenscheibe 54 antreibt, auf die ein Zugriemen 56 aufwikkelbar ist. Der Zugriemen 56 läuft über eine an der Wange 34 des Rahmens 32 gelagerte Umlenkrolle 58 und von dieser zurück zu einem gehäusefesten Verankerungselement 60. Das Verschwenken des Fächerspeichers 30 durch den Schrittmotor 50 erfolgt gegen die Kraft einer Rückstellfeder 62, die den Fächerspeicher 30 in seine in Figur 1 dargestellte Stellung vorspannt.If, on the other hand, individual banknotes or bundles of banknotes are to be assigned to a specific transaction of the automated teller machine so that the money can later be given to a customer or credited to him, these banknotes are not stored in the general collecting compartment 48 but in one of the ones with the Roman numerals I to V designated subjects of the fan store 30 filed. For this purpose, it is first pivoted about its axis 28 into the position shown in FIG. 2. A drive mechanism with a stepper motor 50 is used for pivoting, which drives a belt pulley 54 via a gear 52, onto which a tension belt 56 can be wound. The tension belt 56 runs over a deflection roller 58 mounted on the cheek 34 of the frame 32 and from there back to an anchoring element 60 fixed to the housing Figure 1 biased position.

Wie man in Figur 2 erkennt, ist das Gehäuse 12 zu flach, um den Fächerspeicher 3 in seiner in der Figur 1 dargestellten Größe in die Stellung gemäß Figur 2 zu bringen. Durch die schwenkbare Anordnung der der Rückwand 36 fernen Fachwände 38 werden diese beim Anstoßen an einem Winkel 64, der an der Innenseite des Deckels 16 befestigt ist, gegen die Vorspannung von Federn 63, 65 so verschwenkt, daß die Fächer IV und V praktisch zusammengeklappt werden. Aus diesem Grunde ist es aber auch erforderlich, die Fächer des Fächerspeichers 30 in der durch die römischen Ziffern angegebenen Reihenfolge zu füllen, da sonst der Fächerspeicher 30 nicht mehr entsprechend weit verschwenkt werden könnte, um nach dem Füllen des Faches V noch das Fach I füllen zu können.As can be seen in Figure 2, the housing 12 is too flat to bring the fan store 3 in the size shown in Figure 1 in the position shown in Figure 2. Due to the pivotable arrangement of the rear wall 36 distant compartment walls 38 these are pivoted against the pretension of springs 63, 65 so that the compartments IV and V are practically folded when bumping against an angle 64 which is fastened to the inside of the cover 16 . For this reason, however, it is also necessary to fill the compartments of the fan store 30 in the order indicated by the Roman numerals, since otherwise the fan store 30 could no longer be pivoted accordingly to fill the compartment I after the compartment V was filled to be able to.

Mit dem Rahmen 32 ist ein Segment 66 starr verbunden, daß den Fächern I bis V zugeordnete Schlitze 68 trägt. Dieses Segment 66 wird beim Verschwenken des Rahmens 32 zwischen zwei Gabellichtschranken 70 und 72 hindurchgeführt, die beim Passieren der Schlitze 68 Zählimpulse liefern. Auf diese Weise kann die Stellung des Fächerspeichers ermittelt werden.A segment 66 is rigidly connected to the frame 32 and has slots 68 assigned to the compartments I to V. When the frame 32 is pivoted, this segment 66 is passed between two fork light barriers 70 and 72, which deliver 68 counting pulses when passing through the slots. In this way, the position of the fan store can be determined.

Figur 3 zeigt das Befüllen des letzten Faches V des im übrigen bereits gefüllen Fächerspeichers 30. Es ist dabei zu betonen, daß der Fächerspeicher 30 nach dem Befüllen eines der Fächer I bis V natürlich wieder in seine der Figur 1 entsprechende Ausgangslage zurückkehren kann, in der der Weg zum allgemeinen Sammelfach 48 frei ist, da die Fälle, in denen ein bestimmtes Banknotenbündel einer bestimmten Transaktion des Ausgabeautomaten zugeordnet werden muß, relativ selten sind.Figure 3 shows the filling of the last compartment V of the otherwise already filled compartment memory 30. It should be emphasized that the compartment memory 30 can of course return to its initial position corresponding to Figure 1 after filling one of the compartments I to V, in which the way to the general collecting compartment 48 is free, since the cases in which a particular bundle of banknotes has to be assigned to a particular transaction of the automatic dispenser are relatively rare.

Figur 4 zeigt die Entnahme der in den Fächern I bis V gespeicherten Banknoten nach dem Öffnen des Behälters 10. Der Deckel 16 ist abgenommen. Der Fächerspeicher 30 wurde mit Hilfe eines an einer der Seitenwangen 34 befestigten Handgriffes 74 so weit gegen die Vorspannung der Feder 62 verstellt, bis er die in der Figur 4 dargestellte aufrechte Stellung einnimmt, in der ein an einer Gehäuseseitenwand schwenkbar gelagerte Riegel 76 mit seiner Riegelnase 78 an einem mit der Seitenwange 34 verbundenen Zapfen 80 einrastet.FIG. 4 shows the removal of the banknotes stored in compartments I to V after the container has been opened 10. The lid 16 is removed. The fan store 30 was adjusted with the aid of a handle 74 fastened to one of the side cheeks 34 against the bias of the spring 62 until it assumes the upright position shown in FIG 78 engages on a pin 80 connected to the side cheek 34.

An der Rückwand 36 ist ein allgemein mit 82 bezeichneter Schieber so beweglich gelagert, daß er in Richtung des Doppelpfeiles A in Figur 4 hin und her verschoben werden kann. Der Schieber 82 weist einen teleskopisch verlängerbaren Schenkel 84 auf, der nicht dargestellte Schlitze in den Fachwänden 38 quer zu diesen durchsetzt, so daß der Schieber 82 zusammen mit dem Schenkel 84 zwischen den in den Figuren 1 bis 3 dargestellten Stellungen und der in der Figur 4 dargestellten Stellung verschoben werden kann. Die in die Fächer I bis V eingeführten Banknoten liegen auf dem Schenkel 84 des Schiebers 82 auf und können daher beim Hochziehen des Schiebers 82 in den Fächern I bis V angehoben werden. Damit können sie bequem erfaßt und aus den Fächern herausgenommen werden. Durch Druck auf das Teil 86 kann der Riegel 76 niedergedrückt und damit der Fächerspeicher 30 freigegeben werden.On the rear wall 36 a slide generally designated 82 is mounted so that it can be moved back and forth in the direction of the double arrow A in FIG. The slider 82 has a telescopically extendable leg 84 which penetrates slots (not shown) in the compartment walls 38 transversely thereto, so that the slider 82 together with the leg 84 between the positions shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 and the position in FIG. 4 position shown can be moved. The banknotes inserted into the compartments I to V rest on the leg 84 of the slide 82 and can therefore be raised in the compartments I to V when the slide 82 is pulled up. This allows them to be conveniently grasped and removed from the compartments. By pressing the part 86, the latch 76 can be depressed and the fan memory 30 can be released.

Wenn die Reject-Kassette dem Geldausgabeautomat entnommen wird, sollten sämtliche Öffnungen der Kassette 10 verschlossen sein. Die Hauptöffnung ist durch den nur mit speziellen Mitteln zu entriegelnden Deckel 16 geschlossen. Um aber auch Manipulationen an der Einlaßöffnung auszuschließen, ist der Einlaßöffnung ein Schieber 88 zugeordnet, der innerhalb des Gehäuses 12 an einem Schwenkhebel 90 befestigt ist und durch Verschwenken desselben vor die pilzförmige Einlaßöffnung 20 geschoben wird. Der Hebel 90 ist über einen Doppellenker 92 mit einem Antriebshebel 94 verbunden, der um eine Achse 96 schwenkbar an der Gehäuseseitenwand gelagert ist und mit einem Zapfen 98 durch einen bogenförmig gekrümmten Schlitz in der Gehäusewand ragt. Dieser Zapfen 98 kann in eine nicht dargestellte Kulissenführung des Einschubrahmens greifen, in den die Reject-Kassette eingeschoben werden kann. Dabei wird dann durch diese Kulissenführung der Antriebshebel 94 aus seiner strichpunktiert gezeichneten Stellung, in der die Einlaßöffnung 20 durch den Schieber 88 verschlossen ist, in seine mit ausgezogenen Linien wiedergegebene Öffnungsstellung verstellt. Dies ist allerdings nur möglich, wenn der Antriebshebel 94 entriegelt wird. Der Antriebshebel 94 wird in seiner durch strichpunktierte Linien wiedergegebenen Schließstellung durch einen Klinkenhebel 100 verriegelt, der hinter einem am Antriebshebel befestigten Zapfen 102 einrastet und durch einen Elektromagneten 104 in seine Freigabestellung verschwenkt werden kann. Der Elektromagnet 104 wird nur dann betätigt, wenn nach Eingabe eines korrekten Paßwortes ein entsprechendes Steuersignal erzeugt wird.When the reject cassette is removed from the cash dispenser, all openings of the cassette 10 should be closed. The main opening is closed by the cover 16, which can only be unlocked by special means. However, in order to also rule out manipulations at the inlet opening, a slide 88 is assigned to the inlet opening, which slide inside the housing 12 is attached to a pivot lever 90 and is pushed by pivoting the same in front of the mushroom-shaped inlet opening 20. The lever 90 is connected via a double link 92 to a drive lever 94 which is pivotally mounted on the housing side wall about an axis 96 and projects with a pin 98 through an arcuately curved slot in the housing wall. This pin 98 can engage in a slide guide, not shown, of the insertion frame, into which the reject cassette can be inserted. In this case, the drive lever 94 is then moved from its position shown in broken lines, in which the inlet opening 20 is closed by the slide 88, to its open position, which is shown in solid lines, by means of this link guide. However, this is only possible if the drive lever 94 is unlocked. The drive lever 94 is locked in its closed position shown by dash-dotted lines by a pawl lever 100, which engages behind a pin 102 fastened to the drive lever and can be pivoted into its release position by an electromagnet 104. The electromagnet 104 is actuated only if a corresponding control signal is generated after entering a correct password.

In Figur 5 erkennt man eine Einzelheit an den Einzugswalzen 22, 24 und den Fachwänden 38, die einen reibungslosen Übergang von Banknoten aus dem Einzugsspalt 26 in die Fächer I bis V gewährleisten soll. Hierzu sind an den den Einzugswalzen 22, 24 zugewandten Rändern der Fachwände 38 rechteckige Zungen 106 ausgebildet, die in komplementäre Ringnuten 108 in den Einzugswalzen eingreifen. Die zwischen den Zungen 106 liegenden Randabschnitte 110 sind pfeilförmig abgeschrägt, um zu verhindern, daß an den Rändern Banknoten hängenbleiben können.5 shows a detail on the feed rollers 22, 24 and the compartment walls 38, which is intended to ensure a smooth transition of banknotes from the feed gap 26 into the compartments I to V. For this purpose, rectangular tongues 106 are formed on the edges of the compartment walls 38 facing the feed rollers 22, 24, which tongues engage in complementary ring grooves 108 in the feed rollers. The edge sections 110 lying between the tongues 106 are chamfered in an arrow shape in order to prevent bank notes from getting stuck at the edges.
