  • the guiding surface 4221 of the limiting portion 422 is inclined with respect to a longitudinal direction of the second latch member 42, and the limiting surface 4222 is connected to the guiding surface 4221 and is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the second latch member 42.
  • the anti-theft plate locking mechanism 40 is operable to switch between a locking state (see FIGS. 11 and 15 ), where the latch portion 411 of the first latch member 41 is located in the moving path (M) so as to prevent the anti-theft plate 30 from moving to the opening position, and an unlocking state (see FIG. 13 ), where the latch portion 411 of the first latch member 41 is not located in the moving path (M) to allow the anti-theft plate 30 to be moved by the external force to the opening position.
  • the first latch member 41 stores a restoring force.
  • the anti-theft plate locking mechanism 40 When the anti-theft plate locking mechanism 40 is in the unlocking state and when the external force is removed from the anti-theft plate 30, the anti-theft plate 30 is moved to cover the first opening 211 (see FIG. 8 ), and the anti-theft plate locking mechanism 40 is converted by the restoring force to the locking state.
  • the anti-theft plate 30 includes a plate main body 33 formed with the second opening 31 and an indentation 35 at front end thereof, and two biasing springs 32 each connected between the plate main body 33 and the top plate 21 of the box body 20.
  • the plate main body 33 is formed with two through holes 34.
  • An end of each of the biasing springs 32 extends through a respective one of the through holes 34, allowing the biasing spring 32 to be connected to the plate main body 33.

  • the casing 70 includes a fixing frame 72, and an abutting member 71 that includes two protrusions 711 disposed on the fixing frame 72.
  • the fixing frame 72 is formed with two through holes 712, through which the protrusions 711 respectively extend.
  • the latch portion 411 of the first latch member 41 is located in the moving path (M), prevents the anti-theft plate 30 from moving to the opening position.
  • the first extension spring 414 provides a biasing force to the first main body 412 to keep the latch portion 411 located in the moving path (M) when the anti-theft plate locking mechanism 40 is in the locking state.
  • the user can use a key to unlock the door lock 241 and open the front door 24 to expose the front opening 27. The user then is able to operate the switching portion 413 of the first latch member 41 through the front opening 27.
  • the anti-theft plate locking mechanism 40 is in the unlocking state, in which the engaging portion 415 is positioned between the second main body 423 and the limiting surface 4222 of the limiting portion 422 of the second latch member 42 and the first main body 412 of the first latch member 41 is thereby prevented from pivoting upwardly.
  • the first extension spring 414 stores the restoring force
  • the latch portion 411 of the first latch member 41 is not located in the moving path (M).
  • the plate main body 33 of the anti-theft plate 30 to transmit the external force to the anti-theft plate 30 (i.e., the external force is exerted via the casing 70 to the anti-theft plate 30), such that the anti-theft plate 30 is moved by the external force to the opening position (see also FIG. 9 ), and the plate main body 33 of the anti-theft plate 30 is moved to contact the protrusion 421 of the second latch member 42, so as to push the second main body 423 of the second latch member 42 away from the engaging portion 415 of the first latch member 41, thereby removing the engaging portion 415 from the limiting portion 422 of the second latch member 42.
  • each of the biasing springs 32 (only one is shown in FIG. 14 ) is stretched and stores a recovering force
  • the second main body 423 of the second latch member 42 pivots along a direction indicated by the arrow (D) shown in FIG. 14
  • the second extension spring 424 stores a return force
  • the first main body 412 of the first latch member 41 pivots along a direction indicated by the arrow (E) show in FIG. 14 as soon as the engaging portion 415 is released, and an upper end of the latch portion 411 abuts against a bottom side of the plate main body 33 of the anti-theft plate 30.
  • the plate main body 33 of the anti-theft plate 30 must be movable in the moving path (M) . Therefore, it is not possible to install the cashbox 10 to the casing 70 when the anti-theft plate locking mechanism 40 is in the locking state since the latch portion 411 of the first latch member 41 is located in the moving path (M).
  • the anti-theft plate 30 While the cashbox 10 is being installed to the casing 70, the anti-theft plate 30 is at the opening position (see also FIG. 9 ), and the conveying path 82 of the cash acceptor 80, the cover plate opening 261 of the cover plate 26, the second opening 31 of the anti-theft plate 30, the first opening 211 of the top plate 21 of the box body 20 and the internal space are spatially communicated, thereby allowing the cash passing discrimination to enter from the cash acceptor 80 and free fall into the internal space of the cashbox 10 (i.e., the cash acceptor 80 is located above the cashbox 10) to be stored in the cashbox 10.
  • the cashbox 10 may be uninstalled from the casing 70 for further handling, such as being transported to a bank.
  • the protrusions 711 (not shown in FIG. 15 ) of the casing 70 no longer press against the plate main body 33 of the anti-theft plate 30, and each of the biasing springs 32 (only one is shown in FIG. 15 ) of the anti-theft plate 30 exerts the recovering force to move the anti-theft plate 30 away from the protrusion 421 of the second latch member 42 to cover the first opening 211 of the box body 20 (see FIG. 8 ) .
  • the first extension spring 414 exerts the restoring force to pivot the first main body 412 along a direction indicated by the arrow (F) shown in FIG. 15 such that the latch portion 411 is moved into the moving path (M), and the second extension spring 424 exerts the return force to pivot the second main body 423 along a direction indicated by the arrow (G) shown in FIG. 15 toward the engaging portion 415 of the first latch member 41.
  • the anti-theft plate locking mechanism 40 is then returned to the locking state. Since the first opening 211 of the box body 20 is covered by the anti-theft plate 30, the cash can be safely stored in the cashbox 10.
  • the latch portion 411 of the first latch member 41 is configured to include a hook 416.
  • the hook 416 of the latch portion 411 is engaged with the indentation 35, achieving a more state structure. It is worth mentioning that the hook 416 of the latch portion 411 will not interfere with the front end of the anti-theft plate 30 when the anti-theft plate locking mechanism 40 is being converted to the unlocking state.
  • the self-locking cash deposit equipment 1 of this disclosure must be operated by the user with a legit key before the cashbox 10 can be installed to the casing 70. Since the anti-theft door locking mechanism 40 is mounted to the cover box 43 on an inner side of the second side plate 22", the anti-theft door locking mechanism 40 can only be operated by the user after the front door 24 is opened by the user with the legit key. In addition, after the cashbox 10 is uninstalled from the casing 70, the anti-theft plate 30 automatically close the first opening 211 of the box body 20 of the cashbox 10, ensuring safe storage of the cash.
