Definitions

  • this invention relates to an electronic security device based on an optoeledronic sensing barrier aligned transversely to the passage of transaction cards and a card reader driver including such device.
  • ATM Automated Teller Machines
  • automated transaction machines are devices that allow to perform bank transactions.
  • ATMs have a plurality of means enabling to carry out transactions based on the recognition of valid cards that the user inserts in the input/output card slot.
  • This invention relates to an electronic security device based on an optoelectronic sensing barrier aligned transversely to the passage of transaction cards, and further relates to a card reader driver including such device.
  • the device comprises an optoelectronic sensing barrier transversely aligned to a card-in/card-out passage, and an electronic circuit connected to such sensing barrier and comprising one or more emergency or alarm signal outputs responsive to intrusions through the sensing barrier.
  • An advantage of this device is that it allows to sense the area adjacent to the card input slot connected to the card-in/card-out passage of cards in an automated teller machine to detect the presence of foreign means, such as the so-called "card-trapping devices".
  • a further advantage of this device is that is fully electronic and lacks mechanical elements, which substantially minimize its preventive and corrective maintenance, thus increasing the MTBF, i.e. meantime between failure.
  • a further advantage of this device is that is capable of detecting the presence of false input slots attached to the external front panel of the original input slot, thus increasing protection against new fraud techniques.
  • a further objective of this invention is to replace mechanical means with an optoelectronic barrier consisting of a plurality of transmitterreceiver elements which -transversely aligned- propagate light rays across the card-in/card-out passage.
  • a further advantage is the flexibility to adapt to different variants, since the transmitter/receiver means can emit either infra red or other types of light radiation.
  • the device is suitable to include a secondary optoelectronic barrier situated beneath the movable wall panel or guillotine to detect cards trapped in the card input channel.
  • a further advantage of the invention is that it can include different mechanical, optical, etc. sensors on the external front panel to detect the application of false sleeves.
  • a further advantage of this device is that it can be easily adapted to reader drivers, enabling operation connected to a conventional width sensor or guillotine sensor which are normally built in such reader drivers.
  • the present electronic security devise is applicable to an automated teller machine (ATM) for the detection of foreign instruments or bodies that can be inserted in the card-in/card-out transaction passage (4).
  • ATM automated teller machine
  • Such passage (4) is arranged between an input opening (3) situated on the external front panel and an internal operational area (6) of the device.
  • a movable wall (5) having temporary closure can be provided to operate as a guillotine-type device.
  • the ATM card reader driver (1) comprises a card-in/card-out passage (4) extending between an input opening (3) situated on the external front panel and an internal operational area (6).
  • a movable wall (5) which moves upwards and downwards like a guillotine type-cutter, temporarily blocking such input/output passage.
  • Such electronic circuit comprises a comparator stage, a timer stage and an alarm-cycle generator (18).
  • the electronic circuit (10) comprises a first combinational comparator and second combinational comparator (13) (17), a first timer, a second timer and third timer (14) (15) (16) and one alarm-cycle generator (18).
  • the cut-off of light is total (the entire light beams are intercepted), it may be a valid card or a card-trapping device the width of which covers the full input opening area (3).
  • the cut-off of the optoelectronic barrier (7) is partial, the object cannot be a card; if the same remains inserted for an additional set time it is a card-trapping device and an the alarm cycle is triggered (18).
  • the primary optoelectronic barrier (7) propagates the signals of infra red beams to the electronic circuit (10).
  • the mechanical or primary sensing devices (9) refract their respective signals (9a) to the electronic circuit (10).
  • the function of the width sensor (11) is to detect the entry or presence within the passage (4) of an object having a similar width to a valid card.
  • This sensing device is an electromechanical sensor (e.g. micro switch) which is operated by the side pressure applied by the card in the passage (4).
  • the secondary barrier (8) operates as a trapped/stuck card sensor when it detects the presence of a trapped card [due to deformation or other cause] inside the input passage (4)
