Description

MECHANICAL DEVICE FOR GENERATING AND INJECTING GAS INSIDE HERMETIC CONTAINER FOR EXPULSION OF LIQUID TO DISPUTE MONETARY CELLS

INTRODUCTION

[001] This invention deals with an unprecedented mechanical device, which generates and introduces gas by pressure inside an airtight container, located in the ATM cassette, while the ink and / or other liquid is expelled from inside the container hermetic spraying and rendering useless currency notes.

APPLICATION FIELD

[002] The innovative mechanical device is applied to deter attacks on ATM safes and the like.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED

[003] Currently, security devices exist to deter attacks on ATM safes with the use of indelible ink, such devices are sealed containers, usually in plastic material, containing the indelible ink and installed inside the cash cassettes, more precisely, on the cassette cover. The purpose of these security devices is to react only against attacks on ATMs with the use of explosives, as the impact of the explosion breaks the ink container and it falls by gravity onto the currency notes, this type of device is known as a passive reaction against explosion.

[004] A restriction in this deterrence system is that the ink is only released on the bank notes when an explosion occurs and, currently, there are other types of attacks on ATMs besides the explosion. For example, attacks occur with the use of torches or thermal spears, where the miscreants cut the walls of the ATM's safes to subtract the monetary bills contained in the cassettes.

[005] Another type of attack is configured with the use of electromagnetic drills, with a cup saw on the walls of the vaults. Another, happens when miscreants manage to detach the safe from its fixation or anchorage and take it completely. For these types of attacks on ATMs, the state of the art provides for systems

2/6 called the active entitlement system, where the system, upon identifying an attack on the safe, reacts actively by spraying ink over the monetary bills.

CURRENT STATE OF TECHNIQUE

[006] In the documentary verification of the state of the art, the document BR 10 2012 030232-2 A2, deposited on 11/28/2012, entitled “SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INUTILIZING MONETARY CELLS IN ELECTRONIC SELF-SERVICE AND CELLULASE USE TERMINALS” describes a system and method for application in electronic self-service terminals, and also for a specific use of a cellulase type enzyme. The system is used to disable monetary bills in electronic self-service terminals, which comprises at least one presence sensor (1), a first actuator (2) and a control unit (3) operatively associated with the presence sensor (1) and , to the first actuator (2). The system is also provided with at least one first reservoir (4) that comprises at least one active substance capable of digesting and / or hydrolyzing and / or disaggregating cellulose from monetary bills. Said first reservoir (4) is operatively associated with the first actuator (2). Said control unit (3) is configured to activate the first actuator (2), to expel and direct the active substance contained in the first reservoir (4), to the currency note when the presence sensor (1) detects the presence of least one spurious object, opening or security breach in the electronic self-service terminal.

[007] The preceding above brings a concept of digesting, hydrolyzing monetary bills, being composed of a system that involves a control unit and sensors to obtain its operation, featuring equipment with a high cost of construction, installation and maintenance. The present invention, on the other hand, aims to take advantage of the ink blocks, passive system already installed in the cassette, adding to it a mechanical device that allows to expel the ink not only in cases of explosion and render the banknotes useless by means of any type of ink and / or liquid, by means of a mechanical device that is triggered by the burning of a wick — Therefore, a mechanical device constructed with low cost, easy to be installed, as well as easy to receive maintenance.

OBJECTIVES OF THE INVENTION

[008] The objectives of the present invention are as follows:

- The present invention aims to add to the passive explosion solution, currently installed in ATM cassettes, as well as the possibility of actively reacting against other types of attacks, that is, sensors are installed in ATMs to identify some type of attack, then, the sensor management system will be able to activate this invention to expel, with pressure, the ink and / or other liquid contained in the passive devices on the currency notes of the cassette;

- The objective of this invention is achieved by a mechanical, safe and efficient device, which pierces an airtight container with paint, generates and injects a quantity of gas into the airtight container, while expelling the paint by means of a second hole made in the airtight container made by the present invention;

- To deter attacks on ATMs with the intention of subtracting the cash from the cassettes, using sharp or piercing tools, on the walls of the vaults, since in the imminence of an attack, the mechanical device triggered will cause the monetary banknotes to become unusable.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[009] The objectives of this invention are achieved by a mechanical device installed next to the airtight containers located in the ATM cassettes, which are called passive ink reservoir. Once an attack on the ATM safe is identified, the mechanical device in question is activated and, immediately, it uses any burning device, which initiates the process of active spraying of the paint. Then, the firing device ignites a wick, which heats the tip of one of the perforators of the mechanical device, more precisely, a lower perforator. Said heating, plus the tension of the spring on the body of the lower perforator, pierces the plastic wall of the passive airtight container immediately, the same wick, which continues with the burning, heats the spout of another upper perforator, which also a spring tensioning your body against the wall of the passive airtight container, which makes the second hole in the container

DETAILED TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

[011] THE MECHANICAL DEVICE FOR GENERATING AND INJECTING GAS INSIDE HERMETIC CONTAINER FOR EXPULSION OF LIQUID TO DISPUTE MONETARY CELLS, object of this patent application, refers to a mechanical device (1), which is contemplated by a mechanism (ME), which allows access to the inside of an airtight container (R) to generate and introduce gas and, consequently, pressure inside the airtight container (R) to subsequently expel the paint and / or other liquid from the inside to the external environment, making the currency notes useless.

[012] More particularly, the mechanical device (1) is comprised of a mechanism (ME) consisting of an upper perforator (2), which is comprised of a gas chamber (3), which has a conical region (4 ), followed by a metal tip (5), which is equipped with an orifice (6) configured laterally and an inlet and outlet (6 '). In addition, the upper punch (2) has a spring (M) tensioned over its body. In addition, the mechanical device (1) has a lower perforator (7), which is comprised of an intermediate chamber (9), consisting of a metal tip (10), located on its front face, provided with a

5/6 hole (11) configured on its bottom face and an entrance hole (11 '). In addition, the intermediate chamber (9) has an outlet duct (12) connected to a hose (MG), which is connected to the compartment (C2) of the airtight container (R) on its lower face.

[013] Mode of operation: at the moment when the ATM is attacked by miscreants, for subtraction of monetary bills, either by explosion, use of torches or thermal spears, electromagnetic drills with a saw, among others, the mechanism (ME ) of the mechanical device (1) is driven by the wick (P), which heats the metal tip (10) of the lower perforator (7), which is installed at the height of the compartment (C1), whereas with the tension generated by the spring (8) on its body, the metallic tip (10) starts to enter the airtight container (R), melting its wall, then, the paint that is inside the compartment (C1) starts to enter the hole (11) located on the face bottom of the metallic tip (10), in case the inlet hole (11 ') of the metallic tip (10) is obstructed with residues from the wall of the airtight container (R). Then, the ink goes to the intermediate chamber (9) until it exits through the outlet duct (12), which is connected to a hose (MG), which is inserted into the compartment (C2) through an orifice (O1) , and takes the ink to the compartment (C2), which for expelling the ink, the compartment (C2) has a plurality of holes (13).

[014] Then and almost simultaneously, the wick (P) heats the metal tip (5) of the upper perforator (2), which receives tension from a spring (M) over its body, as the metal tip ( 5) perforates the wall of the airtight container (R), causing the generated gas to escape through its orifice (6), configured laterally in the metal tip (5) and, into the compartment (C1), more precisely above the level of the paint , if the inlet hole (6 ') is blocked by residues from the wall of the airtight container (R). Furthermore, at the same time, due to the fact that the wick (P) enters the metal tip (5) and is concentrated inside the gas chamber (3), the burning of the wick (P) continues to happen and generates gas, which continues to exit through the orifice (6), and / or through the hole (6 '), or both. Then, the pressure generated inside the compartment (C1) by the gas, consequently causes the ink to continue to enter the perforator
