Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Erkennen unzulässiger Manipulationen bei Automaten insbesondere bei Geldautomaten.The invention relates to a device for detecting unauthorized manipulations in machines, especially in ATMs.

Es ist bekannt, dass Täter am Eingabeschlitz eines Geldautomaten einen Aufsatz (Skimmer) anbringen, der die Kartendaten ausliest. Ferner ist es bekannt, zusätzlich oberhalb der Tastatur eine Videokamera zu montieren oder über der Tastatur ein Aufsatz anzubringen, um die Geheimnummer auszuspähen. Solche Manipulationen sind für einen Bankkunden schwer erkennbar, da dem Bankkunden das unmanipulierte normale Aussehen des Geldautomaten nicht bekannt ist.It is known that offenders attach an essay (skimmer) to the entry slot of an ATM, which reads out the card data. Furthermore, it is known to additionally mount a video camera above the keyboard or to attach an attachment over the keyboard in order to spy on the secret number. Such manipulations are difficult for a bank customer to recognize, as the bank customers the unmanipulated normal appearance of the ATM is not known.

Ferner ist es bekannt, entsprechende Aufsätze und Videokameras an der Eingangstür einer Bank oder eines Geldautomatenraumes anzubringen. Auch dies ist für einen Kunden kaum ersichtlich.Furthermore, it is known to attach corresponding essays and video cameras to the front door of a bank or ATM room. Again, this is hardly apparent to a customer.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, Manipulationen an Automaten insbesondere an Geldautomaten und an Türeingängen bei verhältnismäßig geringem Aufwand sicher erkennbar zu machen.The object of the invention is to make manipulations of machines especially at ATMs and door entrances with relatively little effort safely recognizable.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass ein Set aus Automat und einer wirklichkeitsgetreuen Abbildung der Vorderansicht des Automaten geschaffen wird. Hierdurch kann der Benutzer des Automaten leicht erkennen, ob der Automat manipuliert wurde. Dabei kann das aktuelle und unmanipulierte Aussehen des Automaten leicht und aktuell bei geringem Aufwand vermittelt werden.This object is achieved in that a set of machine and a realistic representation of the front view of the machine is created. This allows the user of the machine to easily see if the machine has been tampered with. The current and unmanipulated appearance of the machine can be easily and up to date with little effort.

Vorzugsweise wird hierzu vorgeschlagen, dass die Abbildung neben dem Automaten insbesondere an einer Wand angeordnet insbesondere befestigt ist. Ein geringer Aufwand ist dann gegeben, wenn die Abbildung ein Foto der Vorderansicht des Automaten darstellt.Preferably, it is proposed for this purpose that the image next to the machine in particular arranged on a wall is in particular attached. A little effort is given when the picture is a photograph of the front view of the machine.

Vorzugsweise wird vorgeschlagen, dass die Abbildung insbesondere das Foto von einer vorderen transparenten Platte aus Kunststoff oder Glas abgedeckt ist. Hierdurch wird eine Manipulation der Abbildung sicher verhindert. Dabei ist von Vorteil, wenn die Platte unlösbar auf einem Untergrund insbesondere auf einer Wand befestigt ist. Auch wird hierzu vorgeschlagen, dass die Abbildung rückseitig von einer Platte abgedeckt ist, die zusammen mit der vorderen Platte und der Abbildung auf dem Untergrund befestigt ist.It is preferably proposed that the image, in particular the photo, be covered by a front transparent plate made of plastic or glass. This reliably prevents manipulation of the image. It is advantageous if the plate is permanently attached to a substrate, in particular on a wall. It is also proposed for this purpose that the image is covered on the back by a plate which is fastened together with the front plate and the image on the ground.

Statt eines Fotos kann die Abbildung auch von einem elektronischen Display (Bildschirm) gebildet sein. Alternativ kann aber auch die Abbildung ein auf eine Fläche geworfenes Lichtbild sein, das die Vorderseite des Automaten zeigt.Instead of a photo, the image can also be formed by an electronic display (screen). Alternatively, however, the image may be a photograph cast on a surface showing the front of the machine.

Besonders einfach und platzsparend ist die erfindungsgemäße Lehre ausführbar, wenn die Abbildung von einem Teil der Vorderseite des Automaten gebildet wird. Dies kann dadurch erfolgen, dass die das Foto, der Bildschirm oder die das Lichtbild zeigende Fläche Bestandteil der Vorderseite des Automaten sind. Besonders einfach ist hierbei, wenn der bereits beim Automaten vorhandene Bildschirm (Display) verwendet wird, der zur späteren Information und Eingabe beim Automaten bereits vorhanden ist.The teaching according to the invention can be implemented in a particularly simple and space-saving manner if the image is formed by a part of the front side of the machine. This can be done by the fact that the photo, the screen or the surface showing the photo are part of the front of the machine. It is particularly easy if the already existing at the machine Screen (display) is used, which is already present for later information and input at the machine.

Verschiedene Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung werden im Folgenden näher beschrieben.Various embodiments of the invention will be described in more detail below.

Die erfinderische Lehre besteht aus einer Anordnung (kit of parts bzw. set) eines Automaten mit einer Sicherungsvorrichtung. Als Automaten sind alle umfasst, die einen hohen Sicherheitsstandard erfordern, wie z. B. Geld- Ein- und/oder Auszahlautomaten, Belegausgabe-Automaten, Buchungs-, Ticket- und Kartenautomaten und Toreingangsüberprüfungs-Automaten. Die Sicherungsvorrichtung ist eine eng zum Automaten gehörende Einrichtung mit einer Abbildung, die zumindest die Vorderseite des Automaten in der aktuellen, nicht manipulierten Version darstellt. Diese Abbildung ermöglicht dem Benutzer des Automaten einen optischen Vergleich zwischen der nicht manipulierten Version des Automaten und der tatsächlich vor dem Benutzer stehenden aktuellen wirklichen Version des Automaten, so dass der Benutzer feststellen kann, ob die wirkliche Version Abweichungen gegenüber der ursprünglichen vertrauenswürdigen Version aufweist.The inventive teaching consists of an arrangement (kit of parts or set) of a machine with a safety device. As a machine, all are included, which require a high safety standard, such as. As money and / or Auszahlautomaten, document dispensing machines, booking, ticket and ticket machines and gate entrance inspection machines. The security device is a device closely associated with the machine and has an image that represents at least the front of the machine in the current unmanipulated version. This mapping allows the user of the machine to make a visual comparison between the unmanipulated version of the machine and the actual actual version of the machine actually in front of the user, so that the user can determine if the real version has deviations from the original trusted version.

Der Benutzer kann damit feststellen, ob z. B. vor dem Karten-Eingabeschlitz ein zusätzlicher Aufsatz (Skimmer) angebracht worden ist, ob über der Tastatur ein Aufsatz angeordnet wurde und ob eine zusätzliche Videokamera z. B. in einer zusätzlichen Lichtleiste befestigt worden ist. Sobald der Benutzer eine solche Veränderung feststellt, wird er den Automaten nicht benutzen, so dass Schaden verhindert wurde.The user can thus determine whether z. B. an additional essay (skimmer) has been installed before the card-entry slot, whether an essay was placed over the keyboard and whether an additional video camera z. B. has been attached in an additional light bar. Once the user detects such a change, he will not use the machine, so damage has been prevented.

Die Abbildung des Automaten erfolgt in Form eines Fotos auf Fotopapier oder -karton, in Form eines Fotos, einem elektronischen Display (Bildschirm) oder in Form eines Lichtbildes, das auf eine Fläche geworfen ist. Hierbei ist die Abbildung in Form des Fotos, des Displays oder des Lichtbildes direkt neben oder über dem Automaten oder aber im Bereich der Vorderseite des Automaten angeordnet. Im letzteren Fall ist die Abbildung ein Bestanteil der Vorderseite des Automaten und entweder ein zusätzlicher Bestandteil der Vorderseite oder die Abbildung wird von dem Display geschaffen, das bereits beim Automaten vorhanden ist, um den Benutzer bei seiner Tätigkeit bei Automaten zu unterstützen und zu informieren.The picture of the machine takes the form of a photo on photo paper or cardboard, in the form of a photo, an electronic display (screen) or in the form of a photograph cast on a surface. In this case, the image in the form of the photo, the display or the photo is arranged directly next to or above the machine or in the area of the front side of the machine. In the latter case, the image is a part of the front of the machine and either an additional part of the front or the front Image is created by the display already present at the machine to assist and inform the user in his work with machines.

Ferner kann die Abbildung auch nur dasjenige Teil des Automaten darstellen, das am ehesten manipuliert wird, wie den Karteneinsteckschlitz oder die Tastatur. Auch können zwei oder mehr Abbildungen nebeneinander angeordnet sein.Further, the map may also represent only that part of the machine most likely to be manipulated, such as the card slot or keyboard. Also, two or more images may be arranged side by side.
