Description

Storage case for a safe deposit box and safe deposit box and system

storage container

The present invention relates to a storage container for storing objects in a safe deposit box, the storage container being a safe deposit box cassette and having at least one laterally surrounding outer wall, a base and a detachable cover. The storage container according to the invention also includes a locking unit and a handle with which the storage container can be removed from the bank safe deposit box. The handle can be folded in and/or pushed in on the outer wall and is coupled to the closing unit, so that the handle only folds out or moves out of the storage container in a specific switched position of the closing unit and can be removed. The present invention also includes a system for storing objects, comprising a safe deposit box and a storage container according to the invention, the storage container being arranged in the safe deposit box so that it can be removed and fixed.

State of the art

Safe deposit boxes in general and bank safe deposit boxes have been known from the prior art for many years. Among other things, lockers for storing letters in post offices are known. Safe deposit boxes are also known for storing mostly valuable items in safe deposit boxes. Valuable or rare documents or objects are usually kept in storage containers (also called safe deposit boxes or safe boxes) in bank safe deposit boxes. The safe deposit box itself is offered by the bank in different sizes and shapes and is usually housed in specially secured rooms. In order to remove the storage container arranged in the safe deposit box, the tenant of the safe deposit box must first open a locking door or locking flap in order to then be able to pull out the storage container. The storage containers, which are arranged in the bank lockers, have a cuboid body and a handle arranged firmly on the container. The sizes of the safe deposit boxes are usually standardized.

Watertight valuables cassettes, which can be used in bank safe deposit boxes, are known, for example, from DE 9409159 U1 and DE 19518857 A1. It is a cuboid housing with a lockable cover, which is made watertight by means of a sealing cord. DE 8435584 U1 discloses a bank safe deposit box for storing valuables with a cuboid valuables cassette arranged therein, the valuables cassette having a locking bolt on the side which is intended to prevent the valuables cassette from being pulled out of the bank safe deposit box without opening the lock. The disadvantage, however, is that the bank lockers have to be retrofitted with additional locking shoulders, which are intended to prevent them from being pulled out. Another disadvantage is that storage space for the safe is lost due to the locking shoulders and the empty volume in the safe deposit box cannot be fully utilized.

There have been a number of thefts from safe deposit boxes in recent years. Unauthorized persons maliciously broke into bank vaults or safe deposit boxes outside of business hours, especially at weekends, in order to force open the safe deposit boxes and steal their contents by removing the safe deposit box cassettes (also sometimes referred to as safe deposit boxes). were taken out. After entering the vault, a large number of safe deposit boxes were then violently opened with suitable burglary tools and the contents stolen in a relatively short time. These burglaries were often not discovered by the bank employees until the next working day, giving the unauthorized persons enough time to plunder the safe deposit boxes.

Since bank safe deposit boxes were sufficiently protected outside of normal bank business hours in locked vaults and the robbery method described above has only been increasingly used in recent years, relatively low requirements were placed on the burglary security of bank safe deposit boxes in the past.

There is therefore still an increased need for safe deposit boxes which provide the safe deposit box owner with improved security, in particular with regard to theft protection of the objects and documents contained therein.

object of the invention

The object of the present invention was therefore to provide a storage container for a safe deposit box and a system of safe deposit box and storage container which, compared to the safe deposit boxes known from the prior art or the safe deposit box cassettes arranged therein, provides improved protection against theft.

Description of the invention These and other advantages are solved by the subject matter of the independent patent claims. Further preferred configurations are the subject matter of the dependent claims or are described below.

According to the invention, a storage container is proposed which is a bank safe deposit box and which is suitable for storing objects, in particular valuables or documents, and which can be arranged in a bank safe deposit box. The storage container according to the invention comprises a laterally surrounding outer wall, a base and a detachable cover, which delimit the storage container on the outside. Furthermore, the storage container according to the invention comprises a closing unit which can be switched between a first and a second position. In addition, the storage container according to the invention comprises a handle with which the storage container can be removed from the safe deposit box. The handle can be folded in and/or pushed in on the outer wall and is coupled to the closing unit so that the handle can only fold out or move out of the outer wall when the closing unit is switched to the second position.

Furthermore, a system for storing valuables is proposed, which includes a safe deposit box and a storage container according to the invention.

Detailed description of the invention

The storage container according to the invention has improved protection against theft compared to the storage containers for safe deposit boxes known from the prior art. Bank safe deposit boxes are usually designed to be located in specially secured rooms such as bank vaults. Conventional safe deposit boxes have a locking flap or a locking door which is opened using a key. A storage container, which contains the objects to be stored or kept, is arranged in the safe deposit box. The storage container according to the invention is a safe deposit box cassette.

The storage container according to the invention is characterized by improved protection against theft in that it has a handle that can be folded or retracted in the outer wall of the storage container and is coupled to a locking unit that is also included in the storage container according to the invention. According to the invention, the closure unit is such that it is between a first Position and a second position (closed position and open position) can be switched, the handle folding out or moving out of the outer wall of the storage container when the closing unit is switched from the first position to the second position.

The storage container according to the invention can have all the usual sizes for bank lockers and is preferably designed in such a way that the storage container, which is inserted into the bank locker, completely fills it up. sizes from approx.

35 cm x 25 cm x 10 cm (8,750 liters) to > 200 liters are common sizes for bank lockers. These are offered, for example, as the "SafeStore 3000F" model by the manufacturer Gunnebo, formerly DeLaRue Garny. The storage container is preferably dimensioned in such a way that it almost completely fills the locker volume.

The storage container according to the invention has a laterally surrounding outer wall, a base and a detachable lid. The outer wall, the base and the detachable lid delimit the storage container from the outside. In the context of the present invention, detachable cover means that it can be removed from the storage container according to the invention, for example, or that it can be linked to the storage container by means of a joint or a hinge and can be opened and closed.

Furthermore, the storage container according to the invention comprises a locking unit, which can be switched between a first position and a second position, and a handle, with which the storage container can be removed from a locker. The handle is arranged on the outer wall in such a way that it can be folded and/or pushed into the outer wall. The handle of the storage container is coupled to the closing unit so that the handle can fold out of the outer wall or move out of the outer wall when the closing unit is switched to the second position.

This can be configured, for example, in that the locking unit, which is a mechanical lock in one embodiment, transmits the force of the turning movement of the key via a rotary axis to a mechanical lever and pull rod system, whereby the handle when switching the locking unit from the first position (locked) to the second position (open) extends from the outer wall of the storage container. The actuation of the lever and pull rod device can take place both mechanically and, if an electronic closing unit is present, via a servomotor. The locking unit, which is in particular a lock, for example a mechanical lock or an electronic lock, must first be switched from the first position to the second position so that the handle can fold out of the outer wall or move out of the outer wall. If the locking unit is a mechanical lock, the locking unit can be switched from the first position to the second position, for example by means of a key that the owner of the locker or the person authorized to use the locker has in their possession. In another embodiment, in which the locking unit is an electronic lock, it is conceivable, for example, for the locking unit to take place using a mobile phone belonging to the locker owner with an electronic certificate stored on it, or via a transmitter. In a preferred embodiment, the closing unit of the storage container according to the invention can also firmly close the detachable cover. The lid is closed by means of the closing unit using conventional devices known to the relevant person skilled in the art. For example, it is conceivable that a hook engages behind a pin or the like arranged on the cover when switching the closing unit from the second to the first position and thus closes the cover. In a further embodiment, it is possible for the storage container according to the invention to comprise at least two locking units, with one locking unit, for example a mechanical lock, being designed to unlock and lock the lid and the second locking unit being designed to lock the handle or to unlock the handle. It is preferred that when switching from the first position to the second position, the locking unit unlocks or unlocks both the cover and unlocks or unlocks the handle.

In a preferred embodiment, the storage container according to the invention is a rectangular, three-dimensional body, such as a cuboid. In this preferred embodiment, the outer wall is formed by at least two side walls lying opposite one another and by at least one front wall and one rear wall lying opposite the front wall. Safe deposit boxes in general, and bank safe deposit boxes in particular, usually have a cuboid geometry, so that it may be desirable for the storage container according to the invention to fill the safe deposit box, in particular the bank safe deposit box, almost completely. This has the advantage that the volume of a safe deposit box, in particular a bank safe deposit box, can be fully used.

In a further preferred embodiment, this is according to the invention

Storage container designed so that it is waterproof, especially up to a water column of at least 50 meters. Conventional storage containers known from the prior art, which are arranged in particular in bank lockers, are not designed to be watertight. This has the disadvantage that valuable items such as watches, jewellery, electronic parts, microchips, etc. or valuable documents such as certificates or the like are not protected in the event of water ingress, which can occur during floods, among other things . As a result, the items stored in the storage container lose value or, in the worst case, become worthless. The storage container can be made watertight by means known to those skilled in the art. For example, it is conceivable that the cover has a sealing profile or that a sealing profile is arranged between the cover and the outer wall. Possible sealing profiles can be conventional plastic profiles or silicone profiles. Furthermore, it can be preferred that the outer wall and the bottom of the storage container are designed in one piece. A one-piece base including an outer wall gives the storage container additional stability against external influences such as impacts.

The closing unit of the storage container according to the invention is preferably arranged in the front wall. In particular, if the locking unit is designed as a mechanical lock which is switched from a first position to a second position by means of a key, it may be desirable for the locking unit belonging to the storage container according to the invention to be locked after opening the locking flap belonging to the bank safe deposit box or the Locking door belonging to the bank safe can be switched directly from the first position to the second position by means of a key. Depending on the size of the locker, bank lockers have a locking flap or a locking door, which is opened by means of a lock that is different from the locking unit. The storage container is arranged in the safe deposit box. If the storage container is a cuboid body, the front wall of the storage container is usually visibly arranged behind the locking flap or behind the locking door of the locker.

The handle belonging to the storage container according to the invention is also preferably arranged in the front wall independently of the closing unit and can be folded and/or pushed into the front wall. As described above, if the storage container is a cuboid body, initially only the front wall of the storage container is visible to the customer when the safe deposit box is opened. The arrangement of the handle on or in the front wall can after switching the Locking unit from the first position to the second position of the handle from the front wall fold out or move out and the storage container according to the invention can be removed or pulled out by the tenant of the bank locker or the beneficiary.

The outer wall, the bottom, the lid and/or the handle of a storage container according to the invention are each made independently of one another in a preferred embodiment from a fireproof or a fire-retardant material. The fireproof or fire-retardant materials include, in particular, plastics such as reinforced plastics. It is also conceivable that the storage container according to the invention or parts thereof is made of a metal, in particular steel. It is also conceivable that individual parts of the storage container according to the invention are made from a metal, whereas other parts are made from a different material, for example plastic.

In a further preferred embodiment, in which the storage container is a cuboid body, the front wall of the storage container has a concave or a convex or a planar shape. It can also be preferred that the surface of the front wall at least partially has a porous structure. These preferred configurations can be particularly advantageous in order to make it more difficult for the storage container to be removed from the locker undesirably. According to the invention, the handle associated with the storage container can be folded or pushed into the outer wall, so that the handle only folds out or moves out of the outer wall of the storage container when the closing unit, which is also associated with the storage container, is switched to the second position. Unauthorized access to the locker and the storage container arranged in the locker could, for example, take the form of an unauthorized person who is unable to switch the locking unit from the first position (locked position) to the second position (unlocked position). , in order to fold the handle out of the front wall, tries to pull the storage container out of the locker using a suction device. In this case, it can be advantageous that the front wall, which can usually be seen when opening the locking flap or when opening the locking door of the locker, is designed in such a way that a suction device, such as a suction cup, hardly sticks to it or does not stick , so that pulling out by means of the suction device is made more difficult or even impossible. The porous structure also prevents or makes it difficult for a third party to steal the storage container according to the invention from a safe deposit box using a suction device, such as a suction cup, since it is on the porous surface no vacuum can be applied using a suction cup. The front wall of a storage container according to the invention can thus preferably have an at least partially concave shape with an at least partially porous surface, or have an at least partially convex shape with an at least partially porous surface, or have an at least partially planar shape with an at least partially porous surface.

The cover comprised by the storage container is detachably arranged on the storage container. In the context of the present invention, detachable cover means that it can be removed from the storage container, or that the cover is linked to the storage container by means of a joint or a hinge and can be opened and closed. In a further embodiment, the cover has an additional locking unit, in particular a lock, with which the cover can be opened and closed separately.

In a preferred embodiment, the storage container according to the invention additionally has at least one holding means. The holding means is designed to form a frictional connection between the storage container and the locker, so that it is more difficult to pull the storage container out of the locker. For this purpose, the holding means is further preferably arranged on the outer wall and/or on the lid and/or on the bottom of the storage container, in particular on the outer wall of the storage container. In a further embodiment, in which the storage container is a cuboid body, it is particularly preferred that the holding means is arranged on at least one side wall of the storage container, more preferably on both side walls. Furthermore, it can be preferred that the holding means is arranged both on the outer walls or, in the case that the storage container according to the invention is designed as a cuboid, on the side walls and additionally at least one further holding means is arranged in the lid and/or in the bottom of the storage container.

The holding means is preferably arranged on a carrier plate, so that the carrier plate can form a frictional connection with a wall of the locker. The carrier plate can also be made of different materials. The carrier plate is preferably made of the same material as the storage container. Alternatively, the carrier plate can be made of a metal, in particular an aluminum and/or steel plate. The holding means can be made of or comprise different materials.

For example, plastics such as polyurethane, synthetic rubbers such as styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), polybutadiene rubber (BR), nitrile rubber (NBR), Chloroprene rubber (CR), ethylene propylene diene rubber (EPDM), styrene butadiene latex (SBL) and silicone rubber (SI) or silicone. The strength of the frictional connection depends on the bearing surface of the holding means and the corresponding bearing surface of the locker. The larger the contact surface, the greater the static friction.

The support plate is preferably arranged on the storage container so that it can be moved in and out. In this embodiment, the carrier plate with the holding means arranged on it is preferably embedded in a recess in the outer wall and/or a recess in the lid and/or a recess in the base and can move out of the respective recess in order to form a frictional connection with the inner wall of the locker. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the holding means is arranged on the surface of a support plate that can be retracted and extended in order to form a frictional connection with the inner wall of a locker, the support plate being at least partially covered with the holding means or consisting of this.

For this purpose, in one embodiment, the carrier plate is coupled to the handle, so that when the handle is folded in and/or pushed into the outer wall of the storage container, preferably into the front wall of the storage container, the carrier plate with the holding means arranged on it simultaneously forms a frictional connection with the inner wall of the locker. When the handle is folded out and/or moved out of the outer wall, the carrier plate with the holding means arranged on it moves back from the extended position, eliminating the frictional connection. It is thus possible to remove the storage container without any problems.

The carrier plate can be moved in and out via a servomotor, with the servomotor being coupled to the closing unit. It is also possible that the carrier plate is actuated, for example, via a pull rod and lever system mounted in the side wall, which is connected to the closing unit on the front side of the storage container. This can preferably also be covered by an intermediate wall. It is also possible for the pull rod and lever system to be embedded in the front wall and/or side wall of the storage container.

In particular, it is possible that when the closing unit is switched from the first position (closed) to the second position (open), both the handle folds out or moves out of the outer wall and the carrier plate from the extended position, eliminating the frictional connection with the inner wall of the locker enters. The handle is retracted and extended by means of the closing unit via a suitable pull rod and lever system and via another Pull rod and lever system, independent of the handle, the carrier plate is extended and retracted. It is also preferably possible for the handle and the carrier plate to be controlled together via the closing unit by means of a suitable pull rod and lever system, which is connected both to the handle and to the holding means.

In a further embodiment it is possible that the carrier plate can be retracted or extended depending on the switching of the closing unit. It is thus possible for the carrier plate to be coupled to the locking unit so that the carrier plate with the holding means arranged on it folds out or extends when the locking unit is switched from the second position to the first position in order to form a frictional connection with the inner wall of the locker. When the closing unit is switched from the first position to the second position, the carrier plate with the holding means arranged on it moves back, eliminating the frictional connection.

The closing unit can have different configurations. In particular, the locking unit of a storage container according to the invention is a lock, preferably a mechanical lock or an electronic lock. The mechanical lock can be opened, for example, by the owner of the locker using a key, which works according to the conventional key-lock principle known to the person skilled in the art. In particular, the mechanical lock can be designed in a further embodiment in such a way that a key located in the lock can be pulled out of the lock both in the first position and in the second position.

In a further embodiment, the locking unit can include an electronic lock. The electronic lock can be switched between the first and the second position by means of an electronic certificate, for example. It is possible that the electronic certificate, which is required to switch the electronic lock, is stored on a mobile phone. So it is conceivable that the locker owner can switch or open the electronic lock with a mobile phone or a transmitter or the like using known techniques, for example NFC (near field communication) or other techniques known to the person skilled in the art.

In a further preferred embodiment, the storage container according to the invention has at least one sensor which is designed to record information, for example in the form of vibrations or changing lighting conditions. The sensor or sensors are designed to convert the information into a signal and transmit this signal to an external network to transfer. The signals can also be transmitted using techniques known to those skilled in the art. These include, for example, WLAN/WiFi and/or Bluetooth. The sensor is preferably supplied with electrical energy via a battery or an accumulator and is designed in such a way that it checks the state of the battery or the accumulator at regular intervals and emits a signal as soon as the energy state falls below a certain threshold value.

The arrangement of a vibration sensor may be desirable, in particular to detect unauthorized attempts to open the storage container and to transmit it to the locker owner. Usually, the storage container is exposed to vibrations in the event of an unauthorized attempt to open it. Such shocks would be detected by a sensor located in the storage case and converted into a signal. The sensor is designed in such a way that it can transmit the signal to a network. For example, the network can be reached via a wireless network connection, including a Wi-Fi connection. Furthermore, it can be preferred that a light sensor is arranged on the front side of the storage container, which is designed to detect changes in the lighting conditions, which occur in particular when the locking flap is opened. The sensor is preferably set up in such a way that it transmits a signal to a network when the lighting conditions change from dark to bright.

It is possible here that the locker owner is then informed via the network, which has received a signal from the sensor located in the storage container, for example on the mobile phone or via other conventional communication channels. It is also possible that in the event that the sensor arranged in the storage container transmits a vibration signal and/or a signal about changing light conditions to the network, this is automatically transmitted to an external security service or directly to a police station.

In the past, it has happened several times that unauthorized persons with malicious intent, especially at weekends, have entered vaults or locker rooms in order to open them by force or steal their contents by removing the storage containers (locker cassettes) from the bank locker. Such burglaries were often not discovered by the bank employees until the next working day, giving the unauthorized persons enough time to plunder the safe deposit boxes. By arranging a sensor which detects vibrations when the storage container is opened by force or which detects different lighting conditions, and this information in the form of a signal to a network sends, which in turn notifies the safe deposit box owner or an external security service or the police directly, such a scenario is made considerably more difficult for unauthorized persons.

The subject matter of the present invention is explained further with reference to the following figures. Show it:

1 shows the plan view of a storage container according to the invention with the handle retracted;

2 shows the plan view of a front wall of a storage container according to the invention with the handle retracted;

The locking unit can be a mechanical lock, for example, and is switched between the first and the second position, for example, by means of a key. It is also possible for the locking unit 6 to be switched between the first position and the second position by means of an electronic certificate, for example stored on a mobile phone, or a transponder. In this case the closing unit 6 would be an electronic one designed castle. In a proper arrangement, in which the storage container 1 according to the invention is arranged in a bank safe deposit box, the locking unit 6 must be switched from the first to the second position so that the handle 5 folds out or moves out of the front wall 3 . When the handle 5 is folded out or moved out of the front wall 3 , the storage container 1 can be removed from the locker by means of the handle 5 . The front wall 3 is convex in shape to make it more difficult for unauthorized persons to remove the storage container 1 from the locker if the locking unit 6 has not been switched from the first position to the second position and consequently the handle 5 does not fold out of the front wall 3 or drives out. The convex shape makes it difficult for the storage container z. B. by means of a suction device such as a suction cup from the locker.
