Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to an anti-theft cash container. In particular, it relates to cash containers for temporarily storing cash in stores such as safes, trunks for cash transport, convenience stores, and ATMs, and relates to theft-proof ones.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, these cash containers have been devised to make it difficult to open them by devising the key, or to detect suspicious movement of the key and generate a sound to surprise the thief and prevent theft. Have been. For example, an improved type described in JP-A-2000-15730, JP-A-11-253221, and Registered Utility Model No. 3063291 is also known.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 However, with the conventional method, the prevention of theft of cash, securities, etc. from these containers is incomplete, and furthermore, the containers themselves are stolen and opened elsewhere to cause cash, securities, etc. to be stolen. There are never-ending cases.

[0004] For example, there is a case where even an anti-theft container that generates a loud sound in the case of theft is stolen, and this kind of crime prevention is desired.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention has been devised in view of such circumstances, has a receiver and a sound generator inside a cash container, and generates the sound when the receiver receives an external signal. The container has an internal and / or external container that is configured to operate and that contains a gas or liquid containing colored liquid and / or odorous element, and a lock for opening and closing the cash container. An outlet for discharging the liquid or gas from the prevention container to the inside and / or outside of the cash container when the lock is not opened properly; An anti-theft cash container is intended to prevent theft.

[0006]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 The cash container of the present invention is for storing cash, and is a fixed one such as a safe, a movable one such as a temporary storage for a store, and a movable one such as a trunk for cash transportation. This container is made of a sturdy material, for example, made of metal, and as a movable one, for example, a light and durable container made of duralumin or a thick steel safe in a fixed type.

As the receiver, a well-known general receiver is used, which receives an external radio signal and generates an electric signal.

As the sound generation device, a known sound generation device such as a buzzer or a bell is used, and a device that generates a loud sound when a switch is turned on is preferably used.

[0009] A switching circuit for receiving the electric signal from the receiver and generating sound may be provided in the receiver or the sound generator or separately, and as a result, When the receiver receives a radio signal from the outside of the cash container, the receiver generates a loud sound.

[0010] It is important that the receiver and the sound generator are provided inside the cash container, and when provided outside, the criminal is predicted in advance that there is a device, and in some cases, the device is removed before theft. The effect may be lost.

The prevention container preferably contains a liquid or gas stably, and is preferably used because a resin-made container is hardly corroded. Preferably, this container is also provided inside the cash container because it is difficult for the criminal to notice. However, if provided outside, the liquid or vapor may be removed before the theft, but unlike the receiver or the sound generator, when the externally provided protection container is removed, There is a high possibility that the body is released to the outside and adheres to the culprit, and the color or smell is surprising and theft can be prevented, and the culprit can be easily identified. Therefore, by providing both the outside and the inside, both effects can be used. In this case, the discharge port can be provided both inside and outside.

[0012] The prevention container may be in the form of a bag or a box. In the case of a bag, the discharge port may be provided by a method in which a part of the bag is broken, or a form in which a sealed port is opened. A discharge port may be provided. In the case of a box, it can be opened by peeling off the seal of the sealed narrow mouth, or the mouth can be opened automatically by an electric signal. This outlet is preferably provided inside the cash container, but can also be provided externally, or both internally and externally.

Further, the discharge port may be in the form of a sprayer, and the internal pressure of the prevention container may be increased to spray the liquid or gas.

The liquid or gas is preferably used as long as it diffuses or fills the cash container to color and / or smell cash or securities. In particular, in the case of a new bill, if the adhesion between the bills is too good and the permeability of the liquid is a problem, a solution in which a dye is dissolved in an organic solvent, such as ethanol, is preferably used rather than an aqueous solution. The dyes or pigments used for the colors should be of a level that can be later converted into usable tags by the Bank of Japan. If the carbon black is dark, it will not be possible to distinguish it later, which is not preferable. As the odor, a liquid having an unusual odor such as ammonia water or ammonia gas is used. When used to identify criminals, those that can maintain the odor for a long time are preferable.

As the lock, known locks are used, for example, a dial lock, a cylinder lock and the like. A wire is attached to these locks, and the wire is wound around the shaft by rotation of the lock shaft. When the rotation exceeds a certain number of rotations, the seal of the prevention container attached to the end of the wire is peeled off. Alternatively, the bag is configured to be broken. Alternatively, a method of providing an electric detector and detecting a certain position to generate an electric signal, and using this as a trigger to electrically peel off the seal or electrically open the discharge port can be adopted. In particular, when a device such as an electronic lock is used, it is easy to electrically open the discharge port with a signal other than a specific electric signal.

An external signal to the receiver can be provided, for example, to a key for opening the lock, and a method used for remote opening and closing of a car door can be adopted. Of course, in the case of a store or the like, it can be fixed below the counter or used together with a key.

When the signal does not reach the receiver, such as when the cash container is made of metal, a fine hole may be provided in the cash container, or a window fixed with a receiving resin is provided. You can also. Also, the trunk can be made of resin and the antenna can be embedded in it.

[0018]

【Example】

 Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. Reference numeral 1 denotes a cash transport trunk, which is provided with a handle 2 and a lock 3 made of resin and having an antenna embedded therein. The trunk 1 includes a receiver 4 and a sound generator 5 electrically connected to the receiver 4 via a conductor 6. The receiver and / or the sound generator are singular in the drawing, but a plurality can be used. An antenna line 18 is connected from the antenna of the handle 2 to the receiver 4. The antenna is desirably omnidirectional.

Reference numeral 7 denotes a prevention container, in which a colored liquid 8 is contained. The prevention container 7 includes an ejection section 9 for the liquid 8 and an ejection port 10 provided at the end of the ejection section. Is connected to a detector 14 provided on the lock 3.

Reference numeral 12 denotes a key for opening the lock 3, and a transmitter 13 is provided. When the key owner operates the transmitter 13, the receiver 4 operates and the sound generator 5 generates a loud sound. Further, if the criminal tries to open the lock by force, the detector 14 is activated to spray a colored liquid so as to color cash, bills, etc., so that they cannot be used as they are. Reference numeral 15 denotes a battery, which supplies power to the receiver 4 via the conductor 16 and further to the sound generator 5 via the conductor 6, supplies power to the protection container 7 via the conductor 17, and further supplies power via the conductor 11. Thus, power is also supplied to the detector 14. Although not shown, the key 12 has a built-in button battery.

[0021]

[Effect of the invention]

 The present invention is configured as described above. The major difference from the prior art is that no loud sound is generated at the moment when the criminal steals the cash container. Since it can generate sound, its surprise is great, and not only has a great psychological effect, but even if it survives it, it can be further psychologically distracted by spraying liquid and gas when opening it. It is more effective than before in giving psychological pressure to the offender by betraying the offender's expectations. In addition, it is also effective in arresting criminals by exchanging cash, because the culprit appears in the financial muscle, or by tracking the smell.
