Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a system for transferring at least the value of valuable documents quickly and reliably to a central monetary institution, and more specifically for such transfer from a plurality of mutually dispersed terminals to central equipment assigned to a monetary institution, said transfer being effected with the aid of cassettes of particular construction.
  • US Patent Specification Serial No 4 283 097 for instance teaches a cassette which is so constructed that when withdrawn from a casing the cassette is in a closed and locked mode, but in which a locking device is moved from a locking to a non-locking position when inserting the cassette into the casing, so as to enable the contents of the cassette to be removed therefrom.
  • a system for handling valuable documents within a monetary institution with the use of cassettes is previously known to the art, e.g., from European Patent Specification 0030413.
  • the system is constructed so that when a cassette is inserted into a device or banknotes are inserted into the cassette, information to this effect is transmitted to a data processor, thereby providing information at a central station information concerning the location and contents of the cassettes, the account balance of the customer, etc.
  • cassettes and systems of this kind function satisfactorily per se, there is a general desire to manage such cassettes and systems more effectively and in a more rational manner, so as to improve the interest earned by the valuable documents involved, both on the part of the monetary institutions and their customers, and also to reduce the personnel required for routine work in, e.g., banks.
  • each terminal is provided with means for reading into cassettes information or data relating to the identity and the contents of said cassettes.
  • the monetary institution is provided with means for registering and recording information or data previously read into cassettes.
  • Cassettes intended for the monetary institution concerned are intended to be unlocked solely within the confines of the monetary institu­tion.
  • the terminals may be relatively simple in the case of small customers and more complex in the case of large customers, e.g. chain stores, large purchasing bodies and the like.
  • the illustrated system comprises a multiple of mutually disper­sed teminals 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and centrally located master equipment 10 assigned to a monetary institution.
  • Each terminal is provided with means for writing into cassettes electronically information relating to the valuable-document content of the cassettes.
  • the terminal 13 by way of example, has a write-in means 133 for automatically writing information into cassette 131 in conjunction with the inser­tion of banknotes into the cassette
  • the terminal 14 has means in the form of a keyboard 142 for writing information in the cassette 141 (relating to the number of banknotes and their identification) subsequent to charging and locking the cassette.
  • the master equipment 10 includes registering means 101 which are operative in registering the information previous­ly written into the cassettes. As will be described in more detail hereinafter, this registration can be effected in two ways, either through data transmission from the terminal, e.g. the terminal 13, or by direct transfer from cassette (161) located in its intended position in the equipment 10. The information may also be inserted manually into the main equipment, subsequent to being told the information over the telephone from the terminal in question.
  • At least some of the terminals e.g., the terminals 11, 12, 13, are intended for large businesses and are provided with infeed means 130 for feeding valuable documents (banknotes) through an opening 135 in a cassette 131 connected to the infeed means, and also with transfer means 134 for transferring to the main master equipment 10 of the monetary institution information concerning the identity of the cassette and its content of banknotes subsequent to termination of the infeed process.
  • infeed means 130 for feeding valuable documents (banknotes) through an opening 135 in a cassette 131 connected to the infeed means
  • transfer means 134 for transferring to the main master equipment 10 of the monetary institution information concerning the identity of the cassette and its content of banknotes subsequent to termination of the infeed process.
  • the infeed means 130 comprises, in a known manner, rollers and guide rails for transporting the banknotes singly passed identifying and counting means 136, to the infeed opening of the cassette.
  • Information-concerning the number of banknotes and their denomination from the means 136 and cassette identifica­tion either punched-in through the keyboard or entered direct­ly from the cassette concerned (broken-line conductor) - is collected in a register 133 and transmitted via transmission means 134, which may be connectable to data channels on telephone subscriber lines. This information arrives at the registering means 101 and is stored in said means for future processing.
  • the cassettes (e.g. 131) used in conjunction with these ter­minals 11, 12, 13, are so constructed that when a cassette is connected to a terminal (e.g. terminal 13) and insertion of banknotes and subsequent removal from the terminal is completed the cassettes can be unlocked solely within the confines of the monetary institution, e.g. by positioning the cassette in an intended location in the master equipment 10, or by manually unlocking the cassette by an authorized person.
  • the terminals e.g. the terminals 14, 15, 16, are intended for smaller businesses, the information write-in means of these terminals having the form of a keyboard.
  • the terminal 14 is provided with a keyboard 142 by means of which information can be written into a cassette 141, said cassette being of the kind which can be opened solely within the confines of the monetary institution.
  • the cassette may either be opened automatically by electronic means or with the aid of a key by an authorized person.
  • a business-account owner who wishes to make a deposit places valuable documents (banknotes) into the cassette and inserts information into the cassette memory 1410 (circuit card) relating to the value of the deposit with the aid of the key­board 142, and then phones the monetary institution concerned and informs the institution of the magnitude of the deposit and the account number, and closes the cassette, which is therewith locked automatically and cannot later be opened by the account owner and is either deposited temporarily in a night safe or sent to the monetary institution concerned.
  • the cassette is received at the monetary institution, the cassette is unlocked electronically and emptied while, at the same time, counting (veryfying) the contents of the cassette and comparing these contents with the information stored in the cassette memory 1410.
  • this emptying of the cassette and verification of its contents can be carried out by the account owner himself (customer operated equipment) or by a cashier (cashier operated equipment).
  • the drawing shows in broken lines one end of a cassette 111 positioned in the master equipment 10, this cassette origina­ting from the terminal 11 and which, when placed in the equip­ment 10, is automatically unlocked and connected mechanically to dispenser means 103 for emptying the cassette, and connect­ed electronically to registering means 101 for identifying the cassette. Subsequent to emptying the cassette, the cassette is removed by the account owner, the cassette thus being re­locked and ready for use for a new deposit.
  • cassettes are emptied of their contents in the master equipment 10 of the monetary institution (the bank). It is conceivable, however, for cassettes which are delivered to the monetary institution not to be emptied immediately, but instead to be utilized in banknote dispensing devices assigned to the monetary institution, subsequent to recording the information written into the cassettes. This is made possible by the accuracy and reliability with which available banknote infeed devices, banknote identifying devices and banknote counting devices now operate. This enables the time-consuming task of manually counting, sorting and feeding banknotes to be avoided, and the time normally spent in such tasks to be utilized more than efficiently in carrying out more qualified bank tasks.
  • the drawing illustrates the manner in which a cassette 161 arriving from the terminal 16 is placed in its intended posi­tion in the equipment 10 of the monetary institution, where information read from the circuit card of the cassette 161 by read-out means 104 is recorded in the registering means 101.
  • This cassette can then be used in a banknote dispenser, or cash dispenser, intended for the public without needing to first empty the cassette of its banknote content.
  • cassettes can only be unlocked within the confines of the monetary institution. Positioning of cassettes in their respective intended locations in the master equipment 10 and manual unlocking of the cassettes by authorized personnel have been given as examples of how such cassettes can be unlocked.
  • a terminal e.g. the terminal 13
  • an internal safe which will accommodate a plurality of cassettes and which can be opened solely by authorized personnel (e.g. bank personnel/­security personnel) as distinct from other personnel managing the terminal. This provides further security against robbery.
  • a cassette arriving at the monetary institution need not necessarily be emptied immediately in said institution, but can be utilized later in a banknote dispensing machine (e.g. a cash-point dispenser). It is also conceivable, however, for an account holder to transmit to the master equipment 10, via his terminal, e.g. the terminal 13, information relating to the identity of the cassette and the contents thereof, and then to place the closed and locked cassette in a banknote dispensing machine, optionally belonging to the account holder himself, this machine being connected electronically to the master equipment.
  • a banknote dispensing machine e.g. a cash-point dispenser
