Definitions

  • the invention relates to a security system according to the preamble of patent claim 1 and a correspondingly equipped security container (eg a suitcase or a cashbox) according to the preamble of claim 16.
  • a security container eg a suitcase or a cashbox
  • the security cases typically have a safe area, a protection system and an access opening which can be closed and which, when opened, makes the security case accessible.
  • the protection system is intended to protect the owner or the owner of the valuables against misuse of the valuables if they are lost in the event of a theft. This is done by automatically neutralizing or devaluing, in particular coloring, the valuables in such a case.
  • the corresponding known protection systems are expensive and expensive.
  • the invention is intended to allow a high degree of flexibility in handling and to provide a security system that is inexpensive and secure.
  • a new approach is taken, which makes it possible to offer a high level of security at a reasonable price. It starts from an autarkic approach, which works without external intervention.
  • the corresponding components make a communication connection with each other and the security container changes automatically, i. situational adapted, from one mode to another mode.
  • the protection system may include further protection means or security features which are arranged in or on the security container. Such protections are used to protect the containment against various types of attacks or in the most diverse situations.
  • the protection system may comprise surface protection means which can be inserted or installed in the containment and enclose a receiving area. These means may be electrically connectable to the protection circuit to initiate neutralization or staining of the valuables via the protection circuit in an attempt to damage or penetrate the containment.
  • surface protection protective films, nets, mesh or fabric may be used to provide protection against break-up, cut-through or puncture.
  • the protection system can also include a shock sensor as an additional protective measure, which can be installed in the containment.
  • the impact sensor is electrically connectable to the protection circuit and triggers at a predetermined number or frequency of shocks and / or shocks on the protection circuit neutralizing or coloring the valuables.
  • a motion sensor can be provided, which is deactivated by authorized persons during manipulation or transport of the security container.
  • the protection system may be designed so that access to the receiving area is possible with or without operation of an additional auxiliary element such as a (non-contact) key.
  • Additional security can be achieved with additional modules that generate smoke when the security system is tampered with. This has a signal effect and prevents a culprit takes the security container.
  • an airbag system is located in or on the containment.
  • Such an airbag system must be designed so that it can be activated or activated in the event of unauthorized handling of the safety system.
  • the volume increase occurring in the actuation of the airbag system makes unauthorized manipulation of the security system more difficult and possibly prevents a culprit from taking the security container with him.
  • the new safety container interacts with other elements of the safety system and results in a situationally adapted and self-sufficient safety system.
  • the security container can establish a communication connection between the protection circuit and an external device, preferably a portable computer, via an interface.
  • the embodiments relate essentially to ATM-based security systems.
  • the inventive idea can be but without further ado be transferred to other security systems for the protection of valuables.
  • FIG. 1 A first embodiment of a security system 100 is shown in FIG. On the left is a Transporttrolley 10 (here generally called transport container) shown, the door 11 is open. In the transport container 10 four compartments are provided in the example shown, which are each designed to receive a cash box 20. In the example shown there is a cash box 20 (here generally called security container) in the transport container 10. The Geldbote brings the transport container 10 to the ATM 30 (here generally called storage container). Here, the money transported in the cash boxes 20 is not taken, but the cash boxes 20 together with the money contained therein are introduced into the storage container 30.
  • transport container 10 here generally called transport container
  • the security risk varies.
  • a snatching the security container 20 is more likely than during the trapped in the transport container 10 transport the security container 20.
  • the security containers 20 are in the storage container 30, the security is also higher again.
  • the present invention is based, in part, on findings from cases that have become more and more recent in the field of money-handling have resulted. On the other hand, observations that have been collected over the years in daily practice play a role.
  • an overall system is protected by a security system of ad-hoc communication means communicating with each other, which are arranged in a decentralized manner.
  • Such a security system is specifically designed for storing and transporting valuables and includes one or more security containers 20 for receiving valuables, such as bills or the like.
  • Each of the security containers 20 includes a protective mechanism for protecting the valuables.
  • at least one storage container 30 for receiving and storing the / the security container 20 is provided.
  • the security containers 20 have an electrical circuit with an infrared receiver and have an optical window.
  • the protective mechanism of the security container 20 is designed such that the security container 20 can be brought into at least a first protection mode or a second protection mode.
  • an electrical control circuit comprising an infrared transmitter and an optical window.
  • an electrical control circuit comprising an infrared transmitter and an optical window.
  • a communication protocol is implemented which automatically establishes an ad-hoc, point-to-point communication link from the infra-red transmitters through the optical windows to the infra-red receiver as soon as the containment 20 comes in the vicinity of the transport means 10 or the storage container 30.
  • the named The protective mechanism of the security container 20 is in the first protection mode when the security container 20 is in the immediate vicinity of the means of transport 10. If, on the other hand, it is in the immediate vicinity of the storage container 30, the protective mechanism of the security container 20 automatically changes (ie automatically) to the second protection mode.
  • the protection system thus operates autonomously in the sense of independent of user input.
  • the purse for example, which carries out the transport of the security containers 20 in the transport container 10, has at no time access to the valuables and has no or only a very limited possibility to act on the mode of the protection system.
  • the protection mechanism comprises at least one timer, which monitors a so-called travel time (sidewalk monitoring and / or transport time monitoring) and thus serves as a virtual protection mechanism.
  • the maximum permissible travel time is specified in the protection mechanism.
  • the security container 20 must change from the carrying mode to a transport mode (also referred to here as the first mode). This change of mode occurs only when the security container 20 is inserted into the transport container 10 and he ad hoc can record a communication link with the electrical control circuit of the transport container 10. If the path time window expires without the mode change having taken place, the protective mechanism can be triggered directly, depending on the embodiment, or a warning can be issued and a remaining time window can be specified.
  • the mode change takes place.
  • transport mode other safety conditions and / or other limits and settings are preferably used. Since the security container 20 is better protected in the transport container 10, less stringent requirements can be applied. For example, in transport mode, a new maximum travel time can be specified, which can be significantly longer. Other parameters may also be considered. It can also run another time window parallel to the Wegzeithem. For example, a total time can be specified. If the security container 20 does not reach the starting point (for example the cash center) within 12 hours, then the protection mechanism can be triggered.
  • the starting point for example the cash center
  • Another mode change takes place in this embodiment as soon as the security container 20 is removed from the transport container 10 and inserted into an ATM (storage container 30).
  • the security container 20 immediately recognizes that it is now in the storage bin 30. This detection is possible when the security container 20 can establish a communication link with the storage container 30. If the security container 20 is in the storage container 30, then the security container 20 goes into the ATM mode. In this mode different conditions / rules apply. For example, in the ATM mode, a position sensor provided on the containment 20 may be used (ie, automatically activated). If the security container 20 is moved after it has changed to the ATM mode, or if it comes to shocks on the storage container 30, so the protection mechanism is triggered.
  • the protection mechanism is designated 40 and forms a logical unit of several components.
  • the protection mechanism 40 comprises an electrical protection circuit 41 equipped with an infrared receiver 46 (or an infrared transmitter / receiver).
  • at least one interface 43 is provided to connect a sensor 42 (e.g., a position sensor).
  • the protection mechanism 40 includes a system 48 for devaluing the valuables.
  • the system 48 is connected via an interface 49 to the electrical protection circuit 41 in order to be able to be triggered from there.
  • the protective mechanism 40 may be powered by a terminal 47, for example from a battery.
  • an optional interface 44 (e.g., a serial interface) is provided to connect the protection circuit 41 to a computer 60.
  • the parameters and other settings of the protection circuit 41 can be set via this computer 60. This way you can, for example, adjust the travel time, or make different settings for the different modes.
  • the protective mechanism 40 builds with an electric circuit 50 of a transport container 10 or a storage container 30 ad-hoc Communication link 45 on.
  • This compound is a direct point-to-point connection, preferably an IrDA connection.
  • the electrical circuit 50 includes an infrared transmitter 51 as shown.
  • the electrical protection circuit 41 preferably has further interfaces in order, for example, to be able to connect additional sensors. In a presently preferred embodiment of the invention, these interfaces are programmed by the computer 60, respectively.
  • the electrical circuit 50 is the circuit which is installed in a gelator (storage container 30), then this electrical circuit 50 is connected to other security elements of the ATM.
  • this connection is designated 52.
  • the connection 52 is preferably bi-directional, that is, the circuit 50 may deliver signals to security elements of the ATM, for example, to stop cash dispensing at the ATM when manipulated on the security container 20.
  • the circuit 50 can also receive signals from the ATM. For example, the valorization of the valuables in a security container 20 may be triggered if manipulated at a door of the ATM or at a gel dispensing slot.
  • the infrared transmitter and infrared receiver are designed for encrypted communication.
  • the infrared transmitter and infrared receiver are mounted in the security container 20, in the transport container 10 and in the storage container 30.
  • they are provided with a theft or tamper-proof. This may be designed to destroy or change the key required for communication for encrypted communication. This means that communication is no longer possible.
  • the protection mechanism for protecting the valuables includes or is associated with a system 48 for devaluing the valuables.
  • the devaluation is usually done by the system 48 for this purpose suitable liquid, for example ink or corrosive liquid, is applied under pressure to the valuables through which the valuables are colored.
  • the security containers mentioned can be known security cassettes, which are known, for example, from the Swiss patent application CH-01 532/04 of 17 September 2004 are known.
  • the new security cassette 20 differs from the conventional security cassettes in particular in that it automatically, ie adapted to the situation and independently, assumes the respective desired mode. It therefore needs no additional PDA device and no manually performed control activities.
  • the transport container can be a wheeled transport trolley, a transport vehicle (for example a special vehicle), a carrier, or the like.
  • the infrared signal transmission takes place directly, namely visually and autonomously, between the security containers 20 and the transport containers 10 or storage containers 30. This considerably simplifies the entire transport and storage process and increases security.
  • the protective devices of the security containers 20 have a sensor which is designed to detect parameters of the respective situation of the security containers 20 and, in accordance with the current mode, to trigger the activation of the protective device 48, if the actual situation of the containment container 20 is the same Situation deviates.
  • an optical connection 45 must be possible. That is, there must be an optical window.
  • the optical window can be holes or openings in the containers, or it can be areas in or on the containers that are equipped with lenses or transparent components.
  • the principle is indicated in Fig. 3.
  • a schematic section through a part of a security container 20 and a part of the storage container 30 comprising the security container 20 are shown.
