Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cashbox comprising a devaluation unit for invalidating notes of value received in the cashbox and at least one manipulation sensor for detecting a manipulation attempt of the cashbox. Furthermore, the cashbox has a control unit for controlling the invalidation unit and a stock determination unit for determining the value stock of the cashbox.

  • a control unit of the safe deactivates the devaluation units from the receptacles in which no notes of value are recorded.
  • the activated mode is set only when the actual stock is greater than the limit, and thus only in the presence of a manipulation attempt the devaluation unit can be triggered when the stock is greater than the limit is. As a result, the proportion of false triggering of the devaluation unit is reduced.
  • the triggering of the devaluation unit is understood to mean that the devaluation unit irreversibly invalidates the notes of value received in the cashbox.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Geldkassette, die eine Entwertungseinheit zum Ungültigmachen von in der Geldkassette aufgenommenen Wertscheinen und mindestens einen Manipulationssensor zur Detektion eines Manipulationsversuches der Geldkassette umfasst. Ferner hat die Geldkassette eine Steuereinheit zur Steuerung der Entwertungseinheit sowie eine Bestandsermittlungseinheit zur Ermittlung des Wertscheinbestandes der Geldkassette. In einem aktivierten Modus löst die Steuereinheit die Entwertungseinheit aus, wenn der Manipulationssensor einen Manipulationsversuch detektiert hat, wohingegen in einem deaktivierten Modus die Steuereinheit die Entwertungseinheit nicht auslöst, wenn der Manipulationssensor einen Manipulationsversuch detektiert hat.The invention relates to a cashbox comprising a devaluation unit for invalidating notes of value received in the cashbox and at least one manipulation sensor for detecting a manipulation attempt of the cashbox. Furthermore, the cashbox has a control unit for controlling the invalidation unit and a stock determination unit for determining the value stock of the cashbox. In an activated mode, the control unit triggers the invalidation unit if the manipulation sensor has detected a manipulation attempt, whereas in a deactivated mode the control unit does not trigger the invalidation unit if the manipulation sensor has detected a manipulation attempt.

Eine Möglichkeit Manipulationsversuchen von Geldkassetten vorzubeugen ist es, mit Hilfe von Sensoren solche Manipulationsversuche zu detektieren und im Fall eines detektierten Manipulationsversuchs die Wertscheine ungültig zu machen, sodass ein potentieller Dieb, der die Geldkassette manipuliert, die Wertscheine nicht mehr in den Umlauf bringen kann. Hierzu umfasst die Geldkassette ein sogenanntes Tintenkit, welches die Wertscheine irreversibel einfärbt. Zur Detektion von Manipulationsversuchen umfasst die Geldkassette eine Vielzahl von Sensoren, insbesondere Beschleunigungs-, Schock-, Lager-, Flüssig-, Gassensoren und/oder Sensoren, die eine Öffnung des Deckels der Geldkassette detektieren. Durch das Auslösen des Tintenkits entsteht ein nicht außer Acht zu lassender finanzieller Schaden, da neben den Wertscheinen auch die gesamte Geldkassette sowie eventuell die Umgebung der Geldkassette bei dem Auslösen des Tintenkits eingefärbt wird und anschließend gereinigt werden muss. Dies ist insbesondere dann problematisch, wenn das Tintenkit aufgrund eines von den Sensoren detektierten Manipulationsversuches ausgelöst wird und sich keine Wertscheine in der Geldkassette befinden. In diesem Fall ist das Auslösen des Tintenkits unnötig, da ein potentieller Dieb sowieso keine Wertscheine erbeuten könnte. Ein solches Auslösen der Geldkassette wird somit trotz korrekter Funktion auch als Fehlauslösung bezeichnet.One way to prevent manipulation attempts of cash boxes is to detect with the help of sensors such manipulation attempts and to invalidate in the case of a detected attempt to manipulate the banknotes, so that a potential thief who manipulates the cashbox, the banknotes can no longer bring into circulation. For this purpose, the cash box comprises a so-called ink kit, which irreversibly colors the notes of value. For detection of manipulation attempts, the cashbox comprises a plurality of sensors, in particular acceleration, shock, storage, liquid, gas sensors and / or sensors which detect an opening of the lid of the cashbox. Triggering the ink kit creates a Not to be ignored financial damage, because in addition to the notes and the entire cashbox and possibly the environment of the cashbox is colored when the triggering of the ink kit and then cleaned. This is particularly problematic if the ink kit is triggered due to a tampering detected by the sensors and there are no banknotes in the cashbox. In this case, triggering the ink kit is unnecessary, as a potential thief could not get any banknotes anyway. Such triggering of the cashbox is thus called despite correct function as false triggering.

Aus dem Dokument DE 10 2008 045 607 ist die Verbindung einer Steuereinheit einer Geldkassette und einer Steuereinheit eines Tintenkits bekannt.From the document DE 10 2008 045 607 the connection of a control unit of a cash box and a control unit of an ink kit is known.

Aus dem Dokument EP 1 135 572 1 ist ein Safe bekannt, der mehrere Aufnahmebehälter zur Aufnahme von Wertscheinen umfasst. Jeder dieser Aufnahmebehälter hat eine Entwertungseinheit, die bei Vorliegen eines Manipulationsversuchs die in ihm aufgenommenen Wertscheine entwertet. Eine Steuereinheit des Safes deaktiviert die Entwertungseinheiten von den Aufnahmebehältern, in denen keine Wertscheine aufgenommen sind.From the document EP 1 135 572 1 a safe is known comprising a plurality of receptacles for receiving notes of value. Each of these receptacles has a devaluation unit, which invalidates the notes taken in it in the presence of a manipulation attempt. A control unit of the safe deactivates the devaluation units from the receptacles in which no notes of value are recorded.

Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine Geldkassette anzugeben, bei der die Fehlauslösungen einer Entwertungseinheit der Geldkassette minimiert sind.It is an object of the invention to provide a cashbox in which the false triggering of a devaluation unit of the cashbox are minimized.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Geldkassette mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in abhängigen Patentansprüchen angegeben.This object is achieved by a cashbox having the features of claim 1. Advantageous developments of the invention are specified in the dependent claims.

Durch den Vergleich des Ist-Bestandes mit dem voreingestellten Grenzwert und des Einstellen des aktivierten Modus in Abhängigkeit des Ergebnisses dieses Vergleiches wird erreicht, dass der aktivierte Modus nur dann eingestellt ist, wenn der Ist-Bestand größer ist als der Grenzwert, und somit nur dann beim Vorliegen eins Manipulationsversuches die Entwertungseinheit ausgelöst werden kann, wenn der Bestand größer als der Grenzwert ist. Hierdurch wird der Anteil der Fehlauslösungen der Entwertungseinheit reduziert.By comparing the actual stock with the preset limit and setting the activated mode Depending on the result of this comparison is achieved that the activated mode is set only when the actual stock is greater than the limit, and thus only in the presence of a manipulation attempt the devaluation unit can be triggered when the stock is greater than the limit is. As a result, the proportion of false triggering of the devaluation unit is reduced.

Unter dem Auslösen der Entwertungseinheit wird verstanden, dass die Entwertungseinheit die in der Geldkassette aufgenommenen Wertscheine irreversibel ungültig macht.The triggering of the devaluation unit is understood to mean that the devaluation unit irreversibly invalidates the notes of value received in the cashbox.

Der Grenzwert hat insbesondere den Wert Null, sodass die Steuereinheit den aktivierten Modus nur dann eingestellt ist, wenn der Bestand auf der Geldkassette größer Null ist, also dann, wenn Wertscheine in der Geldkassette aufgenommen sind. Ist die Geldkassette leer, d.h., dass die Geldkassette einen Bestand von Null hat, so ist der deaktivierte Modus eingestellt, sodass selbst beim Vorliegen eines Manipulationsversuches die Entwertungseinheit nicht ausgelöst wird. So wird unnötiges Auslösen der Entwertungseinheit vermieden, wodurch der durch die Manipulation verursachte finanzielle Schaden und der Aufwand zum Beseitigen der Manipulationsfolgen reduziert sind.In particular, the threshold value is zero, so that the control unit is set to the activated mode only when the stock on the cash box is greater than zero, that is, when notes of value are recorded in the cash box. If the cashbox is empty, i.e. that the cashbox has a stock of zero, then the deactivated mode is set so that even if there is a tampering attempt, the validator is not triggered. This avoids unnecessary triggering of the devaluation unit, which reduces the financial damage caused by the manipulation and the effort required to eliminate the manipulation sequences.

Alternativ kann der Grenzwert auf einen Wert größer Null voreingestellt sein, wobei der Wert so bemessen ist, dass bei ihm der finanzielle Schaden einer Auslösung der Entwertungseinheit größer ist als die Summe der Werte der Geldkassette aufgenommenen Wertscheine. Hierdurch wird erreicht, dass, wenn der Schaden einer Auslösung der Entwertungseinheit größer wäre als der Wert der Wertscheine, die Entwertungseinheit nicht ausgelöst wird, da der Diebstahl der Wertscheine finanziell günstiger als die Aufwendungen zum Beseitigen der Folgen eines Auslösens der Entwertungseinheit ist.Alternatively, the threshold may be preset to a value greater than zero, the value being such that the financial damage of triggering the devaluation unit is greater than the sum of the values of the cashbox recorded notes of value. This ensures that if the damage of a triggering of the devaluation unit were greater than the value of the notes, the devaluation unit is not triggered, since the theft of the notes is financially cheaper than the expenses for eliminating the consequences of triggering the devaluation unit.

Der Ist-Bestand und der Grenzwert können jeweils eine Anzahl von Wertscheinen oder jeweils einen Wert von Wertscheinen angeben. Durch das Angeben einer Anzahl von Wertscheinen wird erreicht, dass eine solche Anzahl von Wertscheinen auf einfache Weise durch die Bestandsermittlungseinheit ermittelt werden kann. Die Verwendung des Wertes als Ist-Bestand und als Grenzwert bietet den Vorteil, dass dieser Grenzwert unabhängig davon, in welchen Denominationen der entsprechenden Grenzwert in der Geldkassette hinterlegt ist, jeweils gleichbleibend ist und somit nicht die Anzahl der Wertscheine des Grenzwertes verändert werden muss, wenn in der Geldkassette Wertscheine mit einer anderen Denomination oder mit anderen Denominationen aufgenommen werden.The actual stock and the limit can each specify a number of banknotes or a value of banknotes. By specifying a number of banknotes, it is achieved that such a number of banknotes can be easily determined by the stock determination unit. The use of the value as an actual stock and as a limit provides the advantage that this limit regardless of which denominations the corresponding limit is stored in the cashbox, is consistent and thus does not have the number of notes of the limit must be changed, if in the cashbox banknotes are added with a different denomination or with other denominations.

Die Entwertungseinheit umfasst insbesondere ein sogenanntes Tintenkit, mit dessen Hilfe die in der Geldkassette aufgenommenen Wertscheine irreversibel einfärbbar sind. Hierdurch wird auf einfache Weise ein zuverlässiges Ungültigmachen der Wertscheine im Fall eines Manipulationsversuches erreicht, sodass die Wertscheine nicht mehr in den Geldkreislauf gebracht werden können und somit für einen potentiellen Dieb unbrauchbar sind.The devaluation unit comprises in particular a so-called ink kit, with the aid of which the notes of value received in the cash box can be irreversibly colored. As a result, a reliable invalidation of the notes in the case of a manipulation attempt is achieved in a simple manner, so that the notes of value are no longer in the money cycle can be brought and thus useless for a potential thief.

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung umfasst die Geldkassette ein Speicherelement mit mindestens einem Speicherbereich, indem jederzeit der Ist-Bestand der in der Geldkassette vorhandenen Wertscheine gespeichert ist. Die Bestandsermittlungseinheit liest zur Ermittlung des Bestandes den Ist-Bestand aus Speicherbereich des Speicherelementes aus und übermittelt den Ist-Bestand an die Steuereinheit, damit diese den Ist-Bestand mit dem Grenzwert vergleichen kann. Es ist besonders vorteilhaft, wenn zusätzlich zum Bestand der Geldkassette in dem Speicherbereich des Speicherelementes die Anzahl, die Nennwerte und die Reihenfolge aller in der Geldkassette aufgenommenen Wertscheine gespeichert ist. Hierdurch wird erreicht, dass jederzeit bekannt ist, welcher Wertschein welcher Denomination als nächstes in der Abzugsreihenfolge angeordnet ist, sodass beispielsweise die Entnahme von Wertscheinen aus mehreren Geldkassetten in einem Geldautomaten optimiert werden kann.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the cashbox comprises a storage element having at least one storage area by at any time the actual stock of existing in the cashbox banknotes is stored. To determine the stock, the stock determination unit reads the actual stock from the storage area of the storage element and transmits the actual stock to the control unit so that it can compare the actual stock with the threshold. It is particularly advantageous if, in addition to the inventory of the cashbox in the storage area of the storage element, the number, the nominal values and the order of all banknotes received in the cashbox are stored. This ensures that it is always known which banknote denomination is arranged next in the deduction order, so that, for example, the removal of banknotes from several cash boxes can be optimized in an ATM.

Zusätzlich oder alternativ kann die Bestandsermittlungseinheit einen Bestandssensor, vorzugsweise einen optischen und/oder mechanischen Sensor, zur Ermittlung des Ist-Bestandes umfassen. Hierdurch wird erreicht, dass die Bestandsermittlungseinheit bei Bedarf den tatsächlichen Bestand aktiv unabhängig von einem Speicher ermitteln kann. Der Bestandsensor ermittelt den Bestand insbesondere mit Hilfe einer Widerstandsmessung.Additionally or alternatively, the inventory determination unit may include a stock sensor, preferably an optical and / or mechanical sensor, for determining the actual stock. This ensures that the stock determination unit can actively determine the actual stock, if necessary, independently of a store. The inventory sensor determines the stock especially by means of a resistance measurement.

Der Manipulationssensor kann einen Beschleunigungssensor zur Ermittlung der Beschleunigung der Geldkassette, einen Lagesensor zur Ermittlung der Ausrichtung der Geldkassette, einen Schocksensor zur Ermittlung von stoßartigen Belastungen, einen Sensor zur Ermittlung eines Öffnens eines Deckels der Geldkassette und/oder einen Flüssigkeitssensor umfassen. Mit Hilfe des Flüssigkeitssensors kann insbesondere ein Fluten der Kassette, beispielsweise um somit die Elektronik auszuschalten, detektiert werden. Zusätzlich oder alternativ kann die Geldkassette auch einen Gassensor umfassen, mit Hilfe dessen beispielsweise das Einleiten eines zur Explosion bestimmten Gases detektiert werden kann.The manipulation sensor may include an acceleration sensor for detecting the acceleration of the cash box, a position sensor for detecting the orientation of the cash box, a shock sensor for detecting shock loads, a sensor for detecting opening of a lid of the cash box, and / or a liquid sensor. With the aid of the liquid sensor, in particular a flooding of the cassette, for example in order to switch off the electronics, can be detected. Additionally or alternatively, the cashbox may also include a gas sensor, by means of which, for example, the introduction of a gas intended for explosion can be detected.

Die Geldkassette kann einen Rollenspeicher umfassen, auf dem die Wertscheine in aufgewickelter Form auf einer Wickeltrommel gespeichert werden. Ebenso können die Wertscheine in der Geldkassette auch in gestapelter Form angeordnet sein. Hierzu umfasst die Geldkassette ein oder mehrere Aufnahmefächer mit Aufnahmebereichen zur Aufbewahrung der Wertscheine.The cash box may include a reel storage on which the notes are stored in a wound form on a reeling drum. Likewise, the notes of value in the cashbox can also be arranged in a stacked form. For this purpose, the cashbox comprises one or more receiving compartments with receiving areas for storing the notes of value.

Die zuvor beschriebenen Geldkassetten werden insbesondere in Vorrichtungen zur Handhabung von Wertscheinen, beispielsweise in Geldautomaten, automatischen Kassensystemen oder automatischen Tresorkassen eingesetzt.The money cassettes described above are used in particular in devices for handling bank notes, for example in ATMs, automatic cash systems or automatic cash deposits.

Die Geldkassette und die Vorrichtung zur Handhabung von Wertscheinen sind vorzugsweise über eine Steckverbindung und/oder über eine drahtlose Verbindung miteinander verbunden, über die Daten mit Informationen über den Bestand der Geldkassette an Wertscheinen zwischen einer Steuereinheit der Vorrichtung und der Bestandsermittlungseinheit der Geldkassette übertragbar sind. Hierdurch wird erreicht, dass beispielsweise bei der Befüllung und/oder Leerung der Geldkassette in einem sogenannten Cash Center der jeweils aktuelle Bestand bekannt ist. Unter einem Cash Center wird insbesondere eine zentraler Ort verstanden, an dem Geldkassetten entleert und/oder befüllt werden.The cashbox and the device for handling banknotes are preferably via a plug connection and / or connected to one another via a wireless connection, via which data with information on the existence of the cashbox can be transferred to notes of value between a control unit of the apparatus and the inventory determination unit of the cashbox. This ensures that, for example, in the filling and / or emptying of the cashbox in a so-called cash center of the current inventory is known. A cash center is understood to mean, in particular, a central location at which cash cassettes are emptied and / or filled.

Weitere Merkmale der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der folgenden Beschreibung, die die Erfindung anhand von Ausführungsbeispielen im Zusammenhang mit der beigefügten Figur näher erläutert.Further features of the invention will become apparent from the following description, which illustrates the invention with reference to embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying figure.

Die Geldkassette 10 umfasst eine Wertscheinaufnahmeeinheit 12 und eine als Tintenkit 14 ausgebildete Entwertungseinheit zum Ungültigmachen der von der Wertscheinaufnahmeeinheit 12 aufgenommenen Wertscheine. Die Wertscheinaufnahmeeinheit 12 kann in Form eines Rollenspeichers ausgebildet sein, bei dem die Wertscheine auf einer Wickeltrommel aufgewickelt und gespeichert sind. Alternativ kann die Wertscheinaufnahmeeinheit 12 auch ein Aufnahmefach umfassen, in dem die Wertscheine in gestapelter Form abgelegt sind.In FIG. 1 a schematic representation of a cash box 10 is shown. The cash box 10 includes a banknote accepting unit 12 and a stamping unit formed as an ink cartridge 14 for invalidating the bank notes received by the banknote accepting unit 12. The banknote accepting unit 12 may be in the form of a reel memory in which the banknotes on a Winding drum are wound and stored. Alternatively, the banknote accepting unit 12 may also include a receiving compartment in which the banknotes are stored in a stacked form.

Mit Hilfe des Tintenkits 14 können die Wertscheine im Falle eines detektierten Manipulationsversuches irreversibel eingefärbt werden. Das irreversible Einfärben der Wertscheine wird auch als Auslösen des Tintenkits 14 bezeichnet. Durch das Einfärben der Wertscheine wird erreicht, dass die Wertscheine für einen potentiellen Dieb unbrauchbar sind, sodass der Manipulationsversuch nicht erfolgreich ist.With the help of the ink kit 14, the notes of value can be irreversibly colored in the event of a detected manipulation attempt. The irreversible coloring of the notes of value is also referred to as triggering of the ink kit 14. By coloring the notes of value is achieved that the notes of value are useless for a potential thief, so that the manipulation attempt is not successful.

Ferner umfasst die Geldkassette 10 eine Manipulationssensoreinheit 16 zur Detektion von Manipulationsversuchen. Die Manipulationssensoreinheit 16 umfasst vorzugsweise mehrere Sensoren, mit deren Hilfe verschiedene Manipulationsversuchsarten detektierbar sind. Solche Sensoren können insbesondere Beschleunigungssensoren, Schocksensoren, Lagesensoren, Flüssigkeitssensoren und/oder Gassensoren sein. Ferner kann die Manipulationssensoreinheit einen Sensor umfassen, mit dessen Hilfe das Öffnen eines nicht dargestellten Deckels der Geldkassette 10 detektiert werden kann, sodass ein unautorisiertes Öffnen des Deckels, d. h. das Öffnen des Deckels, wenn die Geldkassette nicht in einer Vorrichtung zur Handhabung von Wertscheinen, beispielsweise einem Geldautomaten, aufgenommen ist, detektiert und als Manipulationsversuch gewertet werden kann. Ferner hat die Geldkassette 10 eine Steuereinheit 18 zur Steuerung des Tintenkits 14, insbesondere zum Auslösen des Tintenkits 14.Furthermore, the cash box 10 comprises a manipulation sensor unit 16 for the detection of manipulation attempts. The manipulation sensor unit 16 preferably comprises a plurality of sensors, with the aid of which different manipulation test types can be detected. Such sensors may in particular be acceleration sensors, shock sensors, position sensors, liquid sensors and / or gas sensors. Furthermore, the manipulation sensor unit may comprise a sensor, with the aid of which the opening of a cover, not shown, of the cashbox 10 can be detected, so that an unauthorized opening of the lid, ie the opening of the lid, if the cashbox is not in a device for handling banknotes, for example an ATM, recorded, detected and can be considered a manipulation attempt. Furthermore, the cash box 10 has a control unit 18 for controlling the ink kit 14, in particular for triggering the ink kit 14.

Befindet sich die Geldkassette 10 in einem aktivierten Zustand, so löst die Steuereinheit 18 im Falle eines Manipulationsversuches das Tintenkit 14 aus. In einem deaktivierten Zustand dagegen löst die Steuereinheit 18 das Tintenkit 14 nicht aus, wenn ein Manipulationsversuch vorliegt.If the cash box 10 is in an activated state, the control unit 18 triggers the ink kit 14 in the event of a manipulation attempt. In a deactivated state, on the other hand, the control unit 18 does not trigger the ink kit 14 if a manipulation attempt is present.

Mit Hilfe einer Bestandsermittlungseinheit 20 kann der Ist-Bestand der Geldkassette 10 an Wertscheinen ermittelt werden. Hierzu liest die Bestandsermittlungseinheit 20 den in einem Speicherbereich des Speicherelements 22 gespeicherten Ist-Bestand der Geldkassette 10 an Wertscheinen aus. In dem Speicherelement 22 sind insbesondere die Reihenfolge und der Nennwerte aller in der Geldkassette 10 aufgenommenen Wertscheine gespeichert. Zusätzlich oder alternativ kann die Bestandsermittlungseinheit 20 einen Bestandssensor umfassen, mit dessen Hilfe der tatsächliche Bestand der Geldkassette 10 an Wertscheinen jederzeit aktiv ermittelbar ist. Diese aktive Bestandsermittlung erfolgt insbesondere mit Hilfe einer Widerstandsmessung, durch die Rückschlüsse auf den Ist-Bestand der Geldkassette 10 an Wertscheinen gezogen werden können. Ein solcher Bestandssensor ist aus dem Dokument DE 10 2008 012 046 A1 bekannt.With the help of an inventory determination unit 20, the actual stock of the cashbox 10 can be determined on bills. For this purpose, the inventory determination unit 20 reads the actual inventory of the cashbox 10 stored in a storage area of the storage element 22 on banknotes. In particular, the order and the nominal values of all notes of value received in the cash box 10 are stored in the storage element 22. Additionally or alternatively, the inventory determination unit 20 may include a stock sensor, with the aid of which the actual existence of the cashbox 10 can be actively determined at any time bank notes. This active stock determination is carried out in particular by means of a resistance measurement, can be drawn by the conclusions on the actual existence of the cashbox 10 to notes of value. Such a stock sensor is from the document DE 10 2008 012 046 A1 known.

Die Bestandsermittlungseinheit 20 übermittelt den aktuellen Ist-Bestand der Geldkassette an Wertscheinen an die Steuereinheit 18, die den Ist-Bestand mit einem voreingestellten Grenzwert vergleicht. Ist der Ist-Bestand größer als der voreingestellte Grenzwert, so stellt die Steuereinheit 18 den aktivierten Zustand ein. Ist dagegen der Ist-Bestand kleiner als der Grenzwert oder gleich dem Grenzwert, so stellt die Steuereinheit 18 den deaktivierten Zustand ein. Hierdurch wird erreicht, dass das Tintenkit 14 nur dann bei einem Manipulationsversuch ausgelöst wird, wenn der Ist-Bestand größer als der Grenzwert ist.The inventory determination unit 20 transmits the current actual stock of the cashbox to notes of value to the control unit 18, which compares the actual stock with a preset limit value. If the actual stock is greater than the preset limit value, then the control unit 18 the activated state. If, however, the actual stock is smaller than the limit value or equal to the limit value, the control unit 18 sets the deactivated state. This ensures that the ink kit 14 is triggered only in a tampering attempt when the actual stock is greater than the limit.

Der Grenzwert ist insbesondere derart gewählt, dass im Falle eines Auslösen des Tintenkits 14 bei einem Wertscheinbestand der Geldkassette 10 größer als der Grenzwert der durch das Auslösen des Tintenkits 14 verursachte finanzielle Schaden geringer ist als der Schaden eines Diebstahls der in der Geldkassette 10 aufgenommenen Wertscheine. Ist der Bestand dagegen geringer als der Grenzwert oder gleich dem Grenzwert, so ist der durch ein Auslösen des Tintenkits 14 verursachte finanzielle Schaden größer als ein eventueller Diebstahl der Wertscheine, sodass in diesem Fall das Tintenkit 14 aus wirtschaftlichen Gründen nicht ausgelöst wird.Specifically, the threshold value is selected such that, in the case of triggering the ink cartridge 14, the cash box 10 is less than the limit of the financial damage caused by the triggering of the ink cartridge 14 than the damage of theft of the bank notes received in the cash box 10. On the other hand, if the stock is less than the threshold or equal to the threshold, the financial damage caused by triggering the ink kit 14 is greater than any possible theft of the notes, in which case the ink kit 14 will not be fired for economic reasons.

Alternativ kann der Grenzwert auch den Wert "0" haben, dass heißt, dass in diesem Fall das Tintenkit 14 bei einem Manipulationsversuch nur dann ausgelöst wird, wenn mindestens ein Wertschein in der Geldkassette 10 vorhanden ist, und dass das Tintenkit 14 deaktiviert ist, wenn die Geldkassette 10 leer ist, also wenn kein Wertschein in der Geldkassette 10 aufgenommen ist.Alternatively, the threshold may also be "0", that is, in this case, the ink kit 14 is triggered in a tampering attempt only if at least one banknote is present in the cashbox 10, and that the ink kit 14 is deactivated when the cashbox 10 is empty, so if no bank note is added to the cashbox 10.

Der Grenzwert und der Ist-Bestand können als Anzahl an Wertscheinen oder als Summe der Werte der entsprechenden Wertscheine angegeben sein. Durch das Deaktivieren des Tintenkits 14 in dem Fall, dass der Ist-Bestand den Grenzwert unterscheidet oder gleich dem Grenzwert ist, wird erreicht, dass die Anzahl der Fehlauslösungen des Tintenkits 14 reduziert wird und somit der Aufwand und der finanzielle Schaden vermindert werden.The limit value and the actual stock can be specified as the number of notes or as the sum of the values of the corresponding notes. Disabling the ink cartridge 14 in the event that the actual inventory is equal to or equal to the threshold will result in reducing the number of false misses of the ink cartridge 14, thus reducing the expense and financial harm.

Zusätzlich zu dem Umschalten zwischen dem aktivierten und dem deaktivierten Zustand aufgrund des Vergleiches zwischen dem Ist-Bestand und dem Grenzwert kann die Geldkassette 10, je nach dem, wo sie sich zurzeit befindet, zwischen verschiedenen Modi umgeschaltet werden. Ist die Geldkassette 10 in einer Vorrichtung zur Handhabung von Wertscheinen, insbesondere einem Geldautomaten, einem automatischen Kassensystem oder einer automatischen Tresorkasse aufgenommen, so wird die Geldkassette 10 in einen so genannten ATM-Modus geschaltet, bei dem das Tintenkit 14 aktiviert ist, sofern der Bestand größer ist als der Grenzwert. Ist der Ist-Bestand kleiner als der voreingestellte Grenzwert oder gleich dem Grenzwert, so wird der deaktivierte Modus eingestellt.In addition to switching between the enabled and disabled states due to the comparison between the current inventory and the threshold, the cash box 10 may be switched between different modes, depending on where it is currently located. If the cash box 10 is accommodated in a device for handling notes of value, in particular an ATM, an automatic cash register system or an automatic cash deposit, the cash box 10 is switched into a so-called ATM mode, in which the ink kit 14 is activated, provided the stock is greater than the limit. If the actual stock is less than the preset limit or equal to the limit, the deactivated mode is set.

Wird die Geldkassette 10 aus der Vorrichtung zur Handhabung von Wertscheinen entnommen, so wird die Geldkassette 10 in einen sogenannten Transportmodus geschaltet, in dem für das Auslösen des Tintenkits 14 andere Auslösekriterien gelten als im ATM-Modus. Zum Beispiel können im Transportmodus Lage- und/oder Beschleunigungssensoren deaktiviert und im ATM-Modus aktiviert sein. Die Geldkassette 10 wird nur dann bei dem Transport in den Transportmodus versetzt, wenn der Bestand der Geldkassette 10 an Wertscheinen größer ist als der Grenzwert. Ansonsten wird ebenfalls der deaktivierte Modus eingestellt.If the cashbox 10 is removed from the device for handling banknotes, the cashbox 10 is switched to a so-called transport mode, in which for the triggering of the ink kit 14 different triggering criteria apply than in the ATM mode. For example, in transport mode position and / or acceleration sensors can be deactivated and deactivated Be activated ATM mode. The cash box 10 is placed in the transport mode in the transport mode only when the stock of the cash box 10 of notes of value is greater than the limit value. Otherwise, the deactivated mode is also set.

Ist die Geldkassette 10 in einem Cash Center oder einem Back Office angeordnet, in dem die Geldkassette entleert und/oder befüllt wird, ist der deaktivierte Zustand eingestellt. Als Back Office wird insbesondere ein öffentlich nicht zugänglicher Bereich zum Bargeldhandling in einer Einzelhandelsfiliale verstanden. Befindet sich die Geldkassette 10 aufgrund eines Bestandes kleiner als bzw. gleich dem Grenzwert während des Transportes bereits in dem deaktivierten Zustand, so wird dieser beibehalten, andernfalls wird von dem Transportmodus in den deaktivierten Zustand umgeschaltet.If the cash box 10 is arranged in a cash center or a back office, in which the cash box is emptied and / or filled, the deactivated state is set. A back office is understood to be, in particular, a section of the company that is not in the public domain for cash handling in a retail store. If the cash box 10 is already in the deactivated state due to a stock smaller than or equal to the limit value during transport, this is retained, otherwise it is switched from the transport mode to the deactivated state.

Nach einer Befüllung der Geldkassette 10 mit Wertscheinen wird wieder der Transportmodus aktiviert, sofern der Ist-Bestand größer als der Grenzwert ist.After a filling of the cash box 10 with notes of value, the transport mode is activated again if the actual stock is greater than the limit value.

Damit die Steuereinheit 18 zwischen den verschiedenen Modi bzw. Zuständen korrekt umschalten kann, ist die Geldkassette 10, wenn sie sich in einer Vorrichtung zur Handhabung von Wertscheinen oder einem Cash Center bzw. Back Office befindet, über eine Steckverbindung und/oder eine drahtlose Verbindung mit der Vorrichtung, in der sie vorzugsweise aufgenommen ist, verbunden. Auf diese Weise können auf einfache Art Daten mit den notwendigen Informationen zwischen den Vorrichtungen und der Geldkassette 10 übertragen werden.In order for the control unit 18 to correctly switch between the various modes, the cashbox 10, when in a bill of exchange or cash center or back office device, is connected via a plug-in connection and / or a wireless connection the device in which it is preferably received, connected. This way you can easily Type data with the necessary information between the devices and the cashbox 10 are transmitted.
