Description
Cash-handling system The present invention relates to a banknote-handling system for the retail trade comprising a banknote receiving unit with an associated cassette in which to receive banknotes.
Previously disclosed systems of the above-mentioned kind are emptied in a variety of ways. The security of the staff who operate the system is very important in order to prevent access to and theft of stored banknotes and other means of payment of equivalent value, which are thus attractive for dishonest individuals to attempt to appropriate.
EP 0692599 Al describes a system for the secure transport and handling of valuable papers and comprises cassettes, in which the banknotes, etc., are placed for handling in a secure fashion. The banknotes are stored in stacks in this previously disclosed system, however, and not on a roll.
The problem that it is proposed to solve in accordance with the present invention is, in addition to enabling the banknotes to be handled in a secure and efficient manner, both for their rapid delivery from a shop till or a shop office, fcrr example, and in the reverse order to a till or shop office of the kind in question, to ensure that the tills in a shop do not contain too much cash, but that the cash is instead stored securely in the office premises of the shop, and in the reverse order when it is wished to ensure that the till has sufficient banknotes of smaller denominations to enable it to function effectively and in accordance with new systems according to which the staff at the till are not required to handle the banknotes themselves, but this is taken care of by the system and the customers.
In accordance with the present invention, in order to be able to handle banknotes of different denominations rapidly and efficiently, these are stored securely held on a rotatable drum.

EP 0692599 Al describes a system for the secure transport and handling of valuable papers and comprises cassettes, in which the banknotes, etc., are placed for handling in a secure fashion. The banknotes are stored in stacks in this previously disclosed system, however, and not on a roll.
The problem that it is proposed to solve in accordance with the present invention is, in addition to enabling the banknotes to be handled in a secure and efficient manner, both for their rapid delivery from a shop till or a shop office, fcrr example, and in the reverse order to a till or shop office of the kind in question, to ensure that the tills in a shop do not contain too much cash, but that the cash is instead stored securely in the office premises of the shop, and in the reverse order when it is wished to ensure that the till has sufficient banknotes of smaller denominations to enable it to function effectively and in accordance with new systems according to which the staff at the till are not required to handle the banknotes themselves, but this is taken care of by the system and the customers.
In accordance with the present invention, in order to be able to handle banknotes of different denominations rapidly and efficiently, these are stored securely held on a rotatable drum.
It is considerably easier to handle the banknotes if they are lying distributed in a long row compared with picking out the right banknotes from a bundle of banknotes in which the banknotes lie stacked together at random one on top of the other. It is sufficient to see how you need to leaf through a wallet for the right banknote, assuming that you do not already make all your transactions by credit card.
The principal underlying idea of the present invention is thus to be able to operate the aforementioned banknote receiving drum and, at the same time, to hold the banknotes in place on the storage drum in the cassette.
In accordance with EP 1291 831 A2, a dedicated unit for receiving and recording banknotes as they are fed in is arranged in a processing centre for banknotes. The banknotes in this case are received between dual belts, which are in turn rolled onto a rotating storage drum.
Such storage of the banknotes securely attached one after the other in a particular sequence does not permit desired banknotes of the right denomination to be fed out, unlike the case in which the banknotes are forced against a drum by belts, but it is then necessary to take the banknote that arrives in sequence followed by the next one. This system is intended for banknotes of the same denomination, or if it is simply intended to receive banknotes securely as they are fed in at random and held in the form of a line inside a cassette in the machine.
The principal object of the present invention is thus, in the first instance, to make available a system which solves the aforementioned problem in a simple and efficient manner.
The aforementioned object is achieved by means of a banknote handling system in accordance with the present invention, which is characterized essentially in that the cassette comprises a rotatably driven storage drum for banknotes contained within a surrounding casing, in that the drive source for driving the aforementioned rotatable banknote storage drum is arranged inside the aforementioned cassette, in that banknotes are so arranged as to be received rolled onto the aforementioned drum and pressed down by moving belts at a mutual distance from one another viewed in the direction of rotation of the drum, in that the cassette is so arranged as to be capable of being connected in a lockable fashion to the aforementioned banknote receiving unit, and is capable of being attached respectively in a lockable and unlockable fashion to an emptying device for banknotes, which are received wound onto the aforementioned storage drum, and in that the cassette comprises a timer for the activation of marking and/or destruction, for example by dyeing the contents in the event of attack and theft of the cassette.
What is indicated in the aforementioned claims cannot be regarded as being obvious to a person skilled in the art, because it is not simply a matter of taking any drum at all and storing the cash on it, but this must be done in a particular way in order for it to function. It is sufficient for the staff to arrive at the emptying point with the cassette, and in this case for the drive for the drum to be present inside the aforementioned cassette in order to take care of the transfer of the banknotes.
The invention is described below as a number of preferred illustrative embodiments, in conjunction with which reference is made to the accompanying drawings, in which:
Fig. 1 shows the system schematically in the form of a block diagram showing possible constituent component parts of the aforementioned secure banknote-handling system;
Figs. 2-6 show different constituent parts of he system separately and performing their function;
