Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to an improvement of a night safe that receives goods from outside and temporarily stores them, mainly in financial institutions that are unmanned at night.

Conventionally, this type of night safe has been constructed by inserting, for example, a bag containing cash, etc., through a chute from an input slot provided outdoors in the main body of the safe, which is installed indoors. The switch detects when a predetermined bag has passed, records the insertion of the item, and issues a receipt from near the input slot.

Therefore, the main body of the vault needs to be placed directly below the chute, and if the floor of the main body of the vault is located above the reinforcing bars of the building, the floor surface will be on the floor of the building. Because they are on the same plane,
Due to these constraints, the volume cannot exceed a certain size, and the volume is determined by design.
For this reason, for example, when all stores go on vacation at the same time, such as on the night before a long holiday, the large number of items thrown into the vault may overflow inside the vault, causing it to become clogged in the chute, making it impossible to issue tickets. There are also concerns about accidents such as this.

Also, depending on the design, the main body of the vault may be made underground or semi-underground, but in such cases, the drop between the chute and the floor of the main body of the vault is large, and the fall may occur. There is a risk that the bag may break due to the impact caused by the impact, and the contents may scatter, so even in such a case, the height could not be increased, and as a result, the volume was still limited.

The present invention was devised in view of the above-mentioned problems and aims to increase the internal volume of the main body of the vault.

To this end, the present invention attempts to achieve the above-mentioned problem by configuring a chute that communicates between the input port and the inside of the vault so that it can be raised and lowered in conjunction with the opening/closing operation of the input door. An embodiment of the invention will be described in detail using the drawings.

Figures 1 to 3 show the configuration of the night safe according to the present invention, and 1 is located on the indoor side of the store;
The outer wall 2 and floor surface 3 of the building are respectively
This is a fireproof and theft-proof vault body formed in common with the vault body 1, and an inner door 4 equipped with a combination lock or the like is provided on the indoor back side of the vault body 1.

Further, in the upper part of the vault main body 1, an input port 5 and a receiver 6 are arranged side by side on the outer wall 2, and the openings of the input port 5 and the receiver 6 are respectively exposed to the outside. The inside is surrounded by a casing 7, and an inspection door 8 is provided on the back side of the casing 7 to enable inspection, repair, etc. of the receiver device 6a of the receiver 6.

Inside the casing 7 are front and rear partition plates 8, 9 and side partition plates 10 for partitioning the periphery of a drop opening 1a formed approximately at the center of the upper surface of the vault main body 1.
Thereby, there is a chamber communicating with the loading port 5, that is, a lifting room 11, a loading chamber 12 which is arranged in parallel on the back side thereof and communicating with the inside of the vault main body 1 via the dropping port 1a, and the receiving device 6a. It is divided into three chambers 13 and 13, in which the inspection door 8 is connected only to the chamber 13.

Therefore, the input port 5 communicates with the lifting room 11, but brackets 14, 14 are arranged on both sides of the input port 5, and the brackets 14, 14 have a rotating input door. Both side end shaft portions 15a of 15 are rotatably mounted to open and close the input port 5.

A fan-shaped partial gear 16 is mounted on one side of the shaft portion 15a.

On the other hand, movable sprockets 17, 17 and driven sprockets 18, 18 are rotatably connected to the upper and lower sides of the lifting room 11, respectively, via a chain 19, and on one side of the movable sprocket 17, the above-mentioned sprockets are connected. A small-diameter pinion 20 that meshes with the tooth shaft 16 is coaxially provided. Therefore, by rotating the input door 15, the power is transmitted through the partial gear 16 and accelerated by the pinion 20 to move the chain 19 up and down via the sprockets 17 and 18.

Further, in the lifting room 11, the chain 19 is connected to the chain 19 via a tension member 21,
A charging chute 22 that is raised and lowered by rotating the charging door 15 is arranged.

As shown in an enlarged view in FIG. 4, the charging chute 22 has an opening 23a at one end having the same size as the charging port 5, and a chute main body 23 which is inclined toward a rear opening 23b at the other end. and a lid 24 which is rotatably hinged to the lower edge of the rear opening 23b of the chute body 23 and closes the opening 23b by contacting the inner surface of the front partition plate 8, and a front and rear opening 23a of the chute body. Guide rollers 25 are installed near the outer wall 23b and rotate in contact with the inner surface of the outer wall 2 and the partition plate 8, respectively, to facilitate smooth elevating and lowering operations.

When and while the input door 15 is closed, the chute 22 is lifted up by the chain 19 and located in the raised position as shown in FIG. 4, and in this raised position, the front partition plate 8 An opening 8a for dropping the bag A is formed in the upper part of the chute body 23.
The lid 24 hinged to the rear opening 23b loses its support surface on the closing side and rotates toward the loading chamber 12, opens the opening 23b, and opens the bag A stored therein.
is dropped into the input chamber 12 by sliding down the slope, and is then stored in the vault main body 1.

On the other hand, an actuator 26 is supported in the loading chamber 12 so as to be pivotable about a point, and tilts when it comes into contact with the dropped bag A, and the tilting action of the actuator 26 indicates that the bag A has been loaded. A detector 27 such as a limit switch, a micro switch, etc. is arranged, and upon receiving the detection output of the detector 27, the receiver device 6a is activated, and the receiver 6 issues a receipt to prove receipt of the bag A. ing.

Next, when the input door 15 is opened by an external operation with the chute 22 in the raised position, the chain 19 moves in the opposite direction according to the tilting operation, and as a result, the chute 22 is lowered.

At this time, the lid 24 in the open state comes into contact with the lip 8b at the lower edge of the drop opening 8a.
The lid 24 is closed according to the downward movement using the point of action (as shown by the imaginary line in FIG. 4).

The lid 24 must be inclined flush with the slope of the chute body 23 when opened, and must be closed smoothly when closed. Therefore, the cross section of the hem 8b is approximately triangular, and in order to satisfy these conditions, the hem 8b guides the lid 24 when opening and closing.

When the input door 15 is fully opened, the chute 22 is located immediately behind the input port 5, and the lower part of the input door 15 is located under the front opening 23a in its fully open position, and the chute 22 is located directly behind the input port 5. This will close the groove formed between the chute 22 and the chute 22.

Next, when the bag A is inserted into the input port 5, the bag A is stored deep inside the chute 22. At this point, when the input door 15 is closed, the chain 1 is moved again in conjunction with this.
As the chute 9 moves, the chute 22 rises, and at its highest position, the bag A is stored in the vault main body 1 through the loading chamber 12 in the same manner as described above, and a receipt is issued.

In the above embodiment, the case where the bottom surface of the vault main body 1 is located on the floor surface 3 has been described.
In this case, the bag A is placed in the raised position of the chute 22.
can be accommodated in the vault main body, so the height of the rising part of the vault main body can be increased, and the height of the vault main body 1 can be increased accordingly.
The storage capacity can be increased. However, the present invention is not limited thereto; for example, when the main body of the vault is installed underground,
In cases where there is a large drop from the input port to the main body of the vault, the chute may be placed in the lowered position when the input door is closed, contrary to the above embodiment, and the bag may be input into the vault from here. This will reduce the impact caused by the drop and prevent the bag from being destroyed due to a fall.

As explained above in the embodiments, in the night safe according to this invention, the loading chute can be raised and lowered in accordance with the opening/closing operation of the loading door. In cases where the lift room is installed on the floor, items are inserted at the elevated position, so the volume of the vault body can be increased by the difference in height, and the lift room and the vault body are separated from each other. It is also good for theft prevention.

In addition, even when this idea is applied to vaults where the main body of the vault is installed underground, the gap between the input port and the main body is reduced, which reduces the risk of breakage when items are inserted. It has the following advantages.
