Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a security container.
  • Such security containers often include a base in which contents are placed, and a lid which is secured to the base in such a way that unauthorised access to the contents of the container is prevented, or at least made more difficult.
  • Bank notes are one example of contents that are stored and transported in security containers. To deter would-be thieves of bank notes in transit, it has become commonplace for security containers to include a spoiling system which releases an indelible dye or ink onto the bank notes in the event that the security container is stolen or otherwise interfered with, to mark and stain the bank notes, thus rendering them worthless and unusable. It is almost impossible to clean bank notes which have been marked in this way, and thus they cannot easily be used in normal transactions involving a human cashier.
  • ATMs typically store bank notes in refillable cassettes which can be installed in the ATM and which allow the ATM to access the bank notes stored therein to provide cash to a user of the ATM on request.
  • ATMs it is typical for ATMs to be replenished by simply removing the, or each, ATM cassette housed in the ATM and replacing it with a pre-filled ATM cassette.
  • Security containers such as ATM cassettes
  • Such a situation may arise, for example, when a lone delivery guard is charged with replenishing an ATM cassette in an outdoor location by transporting a full ATM cassette from a delivery vehicle to the ATM to be replenished.
  • US 4275667 relates to a cassette particularly for bank notes.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a cassette which will give an indication if it is tampered with.
  • the cassette has a shutter which can be opened to remove the contents and mechanism to move the shutter from a first position to a second position when actuated by an external actuator means. When the external actuator is removed the mechanism automatically returns the shutter to the first position. Means are provided to prevent further movement of the shutter after it has returned to the first position.
  • Shutter 12 is actuated by rods 30 acting against the tension of spring 26. The shutter is held against movement by latch 44 engaging bar 24. When key 57 is turned through 180 degrees, end 51 of bar 50 lifts latch 44 against spring pressure to allow shutter 12 to be opened by rods 30.
  • Bar 50 is held in this position by engagement of rod 46 in slots 52, but is released as the shutter opens and spring 54 returns bar 50 to position shown in FIG. 5 .
  • latch 44 holds it closed and the shutter cannot be opened again thus indicating that it has been used once, or tampered with.
  • GB 1442599 relates to a container for storing banknotes, credit cards or similarly shaped articles comprising a reception chamber 24 into which the article is placed via a shoot 52 and a storage compartment 26, the article being forced through a construction formed by plates 28, 30 by a plate 42 pivoted at 40 when a knob 34 is rotated anticlockwise.
  • a plate 44 spring pressed towards the end 18 retains the articles in an upright stack. If the articles are sufficiently flexible the members 28, 30 are rigidly mounted but if the articles are stiff cards the members 28, 30 are resiliently inverted so that they will deflect as the cards are pushed into the storage compartment. A vacuum could be applied behind the members 28, 30 so that the edges of the articles are drawn into contact with the members.
  • the lid 22 is locked to the container body 10 and the container can be held in a plate 71 mounted beneath a horizontal counter, flanges 74 on the plate receiving flanges 76 on the container walls.
  • a lever 78 engages a slot 82 in the plate 71 and the container can only be removed from the plate when the lever 78 is released by a key.
  • a further locking member 66a engages the member 64a to lock the lid to the body 10, this locking device being released by a second key inserted in a key hole 67; the keyhole may be positioned on the container lid so that the container must be unlocked from the plate 71 before the keyhole 67 is accessible.
  • WO 99/35622 relates to a security apparatus for use with an automatic teller machine, the security apparatus (100) having coupling means (110, 150) for engaging the unit with a cash cassette of an automatic teller machine, and spoiling means (130, 132) for spoiling the contents of the cassette in response to a control means.
  • GB 2105399 relates to a security box, cabinet or the like container (11) in which cash, jewellery or other valuables may be kept, and which is particularly adapted for installation in a vehicle such as a caravan, has a lid or door (30) which is securable by a lock (46) and by additional concealed fastening means (58) operable through the stem of a hollow stem rivet (55, 56) set in the container.
  • the concealed fastening means may comprise set screws (58) drivable along the threaded hollow stems of the rivets (55, 56) into engagement with apertures carried on the underside of the lid (30).
  • the rivet or rivets carrying the concealed fastening means may be among other rivets (54, 57) which all serve to fasten a reinforcing strip or plate (52) to the exterior of the container. Additional security may be provided by hasp (64) which pivots over lock (46) and is fastened by a padlock engaging holes (72) (74).
  • GB 2478549 relates to a fluid dispensing apparatus 10 comprising a collapsible bellows 12 for storing the fluid to be dispensed, a housing 14 for receiving the collapsible bellows and means 30 for compressing the collapsible bellows on actuation of the fluid dispensing apparatus 10 so as to eject the fluid through an outlet 22 of the bellows 12, wherein the housing 14 is configured to guide the bellows 12 so as to impede lateral deformation of the bellows 12 during compression thereof.
  • a security container comprising a base, a lid configured to fit onto the base, a first locking mechanism configured to secure the lid to the base in a closed position; a second locking mechanism configured to secure the lid to the base, the second locking mechanism comprising a latch member attached to an inside surface of the base and a pivoting arm pivotally attached to the inside surface of the lid, the pivoting arm having a lip configured to engage with a lip of the latch member so as to limit movement of the lid away from the base; means for disengaging the second locking mechanism, wherein the means for disengaging the second locking mechanism is accessible only once the first locking mechanism has been disengaged, wherein the first and second locking mechanisms are arranged such that when the first locking mechanism is disengaged movement of the lid away from the base is restricted by the second locking mechanism such that after the first locking mechanism has been disengaged, the lid of the container is movable, by a distance which is limited by the second locking mechanism, to permit access to the means for disengaging the second locking
  • An advantage of the disengaging means for the second locking mechanism only becoming accessible once the first locking mechanism has been disengaged is that access to contents of the security container is delayed, allowing more time for a spoiling system or other security system to be actuated. Furthermore, a would-be thief may be deterred from attempting to access the security container if he or she is, or becomes, aware that the security container has two locking mechanisms.
  • the container may be a cash cassette for an automated teller machine (ATM).
  • ATM automated teller machine
  • the second locking mechanism may be obscured from view of a user until the first locking mechanism has been disengaged.
  • the first locking mechanism may comprise a sliding lock member.
  • the security container may comprise a locking member, movable between a first, unlocked configuration and a second, locked configuration. In its second configuration, the locking member may be arranged to prevent at least one of said first and second locking mechanisms from being disengaged.
  • the locking member may comprise a piston bolt.
  • the security container may comprise an elliptical bore configured to receive the locking member in its locked configuration.
  • the security container may comprise a spoiling system for spoiling contents of the container when the spoiling system is actuated. Movement of the locking member between the first configuration and the second configuration may be effected by the actuation of the spoiling system.
  • the spoiling system may comprise a pressurised gas container.
  • the actuation of the spoiling system may comprise piercing the pressurised gas container.
  • Figure 1 shows a security container 10 having a base 12 for holding contents and a lid 14 attachable to the base.
  • the lid 14 may, in some embodiments, be attached to the base 12 by means of a hinge (not shown) disposed towards one end of the base. In other embodiments, the lid 14 is removable completely from the base 12.
  • a handle 16 is provided on the lid 14 of the security container 10 to facilitate handling and carrying of the container.
  • the handle 16 may alternatively be provided on, or towards, one end or side of the base 12 of the security container 10. Alternatively, multiple handles 16 may be provided on one or more of the base 12 and the lid 14, or the handle may be omitted altogether.
  • a first locking mechanism 18 is provided on the base 12 of the security container 10, and serves to secure the lid 14 to the base 12 in a closed position.
  • the first locking mechanism 18 can take the form of any known means for securing or locking a lid to a container.
  • the first locking mechanism 18 includes a first latch member 20 fixedly attached to an inside surface of the lid 14.
  • a sliding arm 22 is capable of sliding along a rail 24 mounted to an inside surface of the base 12. When the sliding arm 22 is positioned at a first end 24a (shown on the left in Figure 1 ) of the rail 24, then a lip 22a of the sliding arm engages a lip 20a of the first latch member 20, thereby preventing upward movement of the lid 14 away from the base 12.
  • An actuator 26 is provided on an outer surface of the base 12 of the security container 10, and is attached to the sliding arm 22.
  • the actuator 26 can be used to slide the sliding arm 22 along the rail 24 in a direction shown by dashed arrow A, towards a second end 24b of the rail.
  • the sliding arm 22 is positioned at the second end 24b (shown on the right in Figure 1 ) of the rail 24, then the lip 22a of the sliding arm 22 does not engage the lip 20a of the first latch member 20, and the lid 14 can be moved upwards, in a direction away from the base 12.
  • the actuator 26 may take the form of any known actuator, and may be moved, for example, electronically, or by using magnets or the like.
  • a second locking mechanism 28 is provided on the base 12 of the security container 10, and also serves to secure the lid 14 to the base.
  • the second locking mechanism 28 can take the form of any known means for securing or locking a lid to a container.
  • the second locking mechanism 28 includes a latch member 30 which is fixedly attached to the inside surface of the base 12.
  • a pivoting arm 32 is pivotally attached to the inside surface of the lid 14.
  • Figure 1 shows that the pivoting arm can be pivoted about pivot 34 in a direction shown by dashed arrow B.
  • An elliptical aperture or bore 36 is formed through the pivoting arm 32, the relevance and purpose of which will be discussed further with reference to Figures 4 and 5 .
  • the security container 10 is shown in a partially opened state.
  • the first locking mechanism 18 is shown in a disengaged position. That is to say, the actuator 26 has been moved to the right such that the lip 22a of the sliding arm 22 no longer engages with the lip 20a of the first latch member 20. Accordingly, the lid 14 can be moved upwards, in a direction away from the base 12.
  • the second locking mechanism 28 As will be apparent from Figure 2 , with the first locking mechanism 18 in a disengaged state, movement of the lid 14 away from the base 12 is restricted by the second locking mechanism 28.
  • the distance by which the lid 14 can be moved away from the base 12 is limited by the engagement of a lip 30a of the second latch member 30 with a lip 32a of the pivoting arm 32.
  • the pivoting arm 32 When the second locking mechanism 28 is in an engaged state, the pivoting arm 32 is locked in the position shown in Figure 2 . While locked, the pivoting arm 32 cannot be pivoted about the pivot 34 and, therefore, cannot moved away from the second latch member 30. Clearly, therefore, the second locking mechanism 28 cannot be disengaged while the pivoting arm 32 is in a locked position.
  • the lid 14 moves away from the base 12 by the limited distance reveals a keyhole 38.
  • the keyhole 38 is obscured from view (i.e. not visible) from outside the security container 10 by a wall of the base 12.
  • the keyhole 38 is brought into view, and can be accessed, when the lid 14 is moved upwards far enough that the keyhole is moved beyond an upper edge of the wall of the base 12.
  • the keyhole 38 is arranged to receive a key (not shown) in a known way.
  • the second locking mechanism 28 can be disengaged in a manner described below.
  • FIG. 3 shows the security container with the first and second locking mechanisms 18, 28 in a disengaged state, such that the lid 14 of the container can be removed completely from the base 12, thus allowing access to contents of the container.
  • the security container 10 further includes a spoiling mechanism having an actuation mechanism.
  • a spoiling mechanism having an actuation mechanism.
  • the actuation mechanism is triggered, for example in the event of an unauthorised attempt to access the contents of the container 10, the spoiling mechanism is actuated, and a spoiling agent, such as a dye or ink is released onto the contents of the container 10, which marks and stains the contents, thereby rendering the contents worthless.
  • a spoiling agent such as a dye or ink
  • FIG. 4 shows a spoiling mechanism 40 suitable for use in a security container 10.
  • a gas container 42 contains a compressed gas such as CO 2 .
  • the gas container 42 is coupled to a housing 44 by known means, such as a screw fitting.
  • the housing 44 also houses the spoiling agent (not shown) used to spoil contents of the container 10 in the event of an unauthorised access attempt on the container 10.
  • a piercing mechanism 46 is also coupled to the housing, and includes an electronically controlled explosive charge 48 which, when triggered, ruptures a closure member (not shown) of the gas container 42. In the event of an unauthorised attempt to access the container, the explosive charge is triggered by known electrical or mechanical means, and the piercing mechanism 46 is forced towards the gas container 42.
  • a closure member (not shown) of the gas container 42 is pierced, resulting in compressed gas being ejected from the gas container, through the housing 44, and forcing the spoiling agent out of the housing, through a tube 50 towards the contents.
  • a cylinder 52 extends from the housing 44 and houses a piston 54 capable of moving along the cylinder.
  • a number of 'O'-rings 56 located in the cylinder 52 serve to hold the piston 54 in place, and to guide the piston as it moves along the cylinder. In this embodiment, three O-rings 56 are used. However, more or fewer O-rings may be used in other embodiments.
  • the piston 54 Before the piercing mechanism 46 has been activated, the piston 54 is in a resting position, as shown in Figure 4 . In the event of an unauthorised attempt to access the container, gas that is ejected from the gas container 42, in addition to forcing spoiling agent along the tube 50, also forces the piston 54 along the cylinder 52. The purpose of this will now be discussed in further detail.
  • the spoiling system 40 may be located within either the base 12 or the lid 14 of the security container 10, in a position adjacent, or near to, the pivoting arm 32.
  • a longitudinal axis of the cylinder 52 is substantially aligned with the bore 36, such that, when the piston 54 is forced along the cylinder, it at least partially enters the bore.
  • a stopper member 58 located at one end of the bore 36 serves to restrict movement of the piston 54 beyond the end of the bore.
  • the pivoting arm 32 is prevented from pivoting about the pivot 34 and, therefore, prevented from being moved away from the latch member 30.
  • actuation of the spoiling system 40 also locks the second locking mechanism 28 in its locked position, thereby preventing the second locking mechanism from being disengaged.
  • the locking of the second locking mechanism 28 would delay a person attempting to gain unauthorised access to the contents of the container 10 from removing the lid 14.
  • the locking of the second locking mechanism 28 has an additional advantage in terms of safety. If a person, either authorised or unauthorised, attempting to access the contents of the container 10 is able to remove the lid 14 of the container while the spoiling system is being triggered, then there is a risk that the spoiling agent could be sprayed onto the body or into the face of the person, or into his or her eyes. This could, of course, be very detrimental to the person's health. Therefore, it is advantageous that, the actuation of the spoiling system automatically effects the locking of the second locking mechanism 28 in its locked position.
  • the O-rings 56 in addition to guiding the piston 54 along the cylinder 52, also act to block the cylinder when the spoiling system has been actuated, thereby preventing spoiling agent and gas from escaping from the housing 44 via the cylinder. Instead, the only exit from the housing 44 by which the spoiling agent is able to escape is the tube 50, which guides the spoiling agent towards the contents of the container 10.
  • the bore 36 is elliptical in shape. This is advantageous in that, once the primary locking mechanism 18 has been disengaged, and the lid 14 of the security container 10 has been lifted a sufficient distance to reveal the means 38 for disengaging the secondary mechanism 28,the bore 36 will still be aligned with the cylinder 52 and, therefore, the piston 54, having a circular cross section, will still be able to be fired into the bore to restrict further movement of the lid 14. In other words, even if the first locking mechanism 18 has been disengaged or breached without the spoiling system having been actuated, a person attempting to gain access to the container 10 will not be able to remove the lid 14 completely from the container without forcing it.
  • the piston 54 when the spoiling system is actuated, the piston 54 is fired into a bore 36 in the pivoting arm 32 of the second locking mechanism 28.
  • the bore 36 may be located in the sliding arm 22 of the first locking mechanism 18.
  • the piston 54 is arranged to travel along the cylinder 52 into the pivoting arm 32, in other embodiments, the piston is arranged to move into a bore located in a wall of the base 12 or the lid 14 of the container 10.
  • the container 10 may include more or fewer locking mechanisms.
  • individual features described above may be combined in any combination as required.
  • the spoiling mechanism may be provided without either of the first and/or second locking mechanisms.
