- the term "enclosed” does not necessarily mean that the inner sheaths and also the outer shells mentioned below are provided with mechanical, key-operated locks are closable in the conventional sense; the inner and outer sheaths may also be secured in a suitably different manner in a closed or closed manner against being opened, such that the valuables are encapsulated in a kind of capsule, the interior of which is accessible only by suitable manipulations.
- cassettes are usually stored in security devices. Also, when transporting vehicles preferably vehicles are used, the holds contain safety devices for the cassettes.
- the risk of theft for the cassettes is particularly high for transports between vehicles and buildings or on larger transport routes within building complexes.
- the valuables or the inner casings or cassettes are enclosed in special outer shells, and there is provided an anti-abuse device that is triggered by unauthorized manipulation of the outer shell.
- the abuse protection device can be arranged in or on the inner shell and, for example, be designed to mark and / or value the valuables in such a way that they can not be misused.
- the anti-abuse device may also include other measures, such as an audible or visual warning signal, that may be detected on-site or at a control center by surveillance personnel.
- the outer shells used hitherto, and in particular their safety devices, are complex in their manufacture and generally only suitable for receiving cassettes with certain masses and specific designs.
- an outer shell is used, which can be closed gas-tight. Between the inner shell and the outer shell thereby a pressure chamber is formed, which is acted upon after closing the outer shell with an initial pressure.
- This initial pressure usually differs little or not from the ambient pressure.
- a target pressure is now generated, which deviates from the ambient pressure, that is, which is above or below the ambient pressure.
- the pressure in the pressure chamber is monitored by means of a pressure sensor. Starting from the pressure sensor, the anti-abuse protection device is triggered as soon as the pressure in the pressure chamber deviates from the target pressure by more than a tolerance pressure value.
- Means are provided to change the state of the anti-abuse device between a dormant state and a triggerable state.
- the abuse protection device is brought into the releasable state, preferably after the target pressure has been reached in the pressure chamber, and it will be returned to the dormant state if the outer shell is to be opened by a person authorized to do so.
- the target pressure can be generated for example by means of a pump, for which purpose an opening is present in the outer shell through which air passes during the pumping process, and which can be closed tightly as soon as the pump has increased or decreased the pressure in the pressure chamber to the desired pressure.
- the pump can be arranged inside or outside the outer shell. Such a change in pressure is referred to as a change with external air communication.
- the target pressure can also be generated without external air communication, internally but possibly externally controlled, by a physical and / or chemical process.
- a physical process for generating the desired pressure can take place in such a way that a time-controllable physical process takes place.
- a target pressure which is above the initial pressure can be generated by an expansion of a fluid in gaseous form from a pressure vessel into the pressure space.
- a target pressure is preferably selected which is above the ambient or initial pressure.
- a target pressure which is below the initial pressure can be generated by pumping air from the pressure chamber via a check valve in a pressure chamber arranged in the pressure vessel.
- Another possibility for generating the target pressure is to generate a time-controllable chemical, such as pyrotechnic, process in the pressure chamber.
- the target pressure is variable.
- the target pressure can be selected in terms of time or changed according to a random principle.
- the inner cover is usually a cassette, for example a cashbox, and it usually comprises the anti-abuse device.
- the anti-abuse device may for example be a device connected to the inner shell for devaluing the valuables, for example with a coloring or etching substance.
- a rigid outer shell for example an outer shell in the manner of a shell suitcase.
- shell cases are inexpensive, and that a particular shell case can be used as an outer shell for inner cases of various types and dimensions.
- the outer shell may have an inner and an outer wall, wherein the pressure space between these two walls is formed. This has the advantage that the pressure chamber has a smaller volume, so that the generation of the desired pressure requires less effort.
- FIG. 1A and 1B show a first embodiment of a protection system 10 according to the invention.
- Valuables 1 here in the form of a bundle of banknotes, are received in an inner shell 12 (eg a cashbox), and this inner shell 12 is enclosed in an outer shell 14.
- an inner shell 12 eg a cashbox

- the outer shell 14 is tightly closed and in particular destined to receive the inner shell 12 with the valuables 1 during transport.
- the outer shell 14 is substantially rigid.
- a conventional hard shell case or a hard shell case-like container can be used.
- it is a shell case, which is preferably made of a plastic material.
- shell cases made of thermoplastic material, preferably kydex® material.
- a pressure space 13 is formed, in which a pressure p (13) prevails, which is different depending on the situation or time, as will be explained below.
- the pressure chamber 13 is essentially limited by the inner shell 12 and the outer shell 14.
- the outer shell 14 may also be two-layered, in which case the pressure chamber is bounded by an outer wall 14.1 and an inner wall 14.2 of the outer shell.
- the protection system 10 comprises an anti-abuse device 16 which serves to mark and / or to devaluate the valuables 1 if an unauthorized manipulation of the protection system 10 is detected. This marking or devaluing of the valuables 1 takes place, for example, such that a coloring or corrosive substance is released under pressure on the valuables 1, so that they are no longer usable and it is therefore uninteresting to abuse or steal them.
- the abuse protection device 16 may also generate an optical or acoustic signal.
- Means associated with the anti-abuse device 16 are provided for altering the state of the anti-abuse device 16 between a dormant state in which it is ineligible or less sensitive and a triggerable state.
- the anti-abuse device 16 can be brought into its triggerable state in various ways. On the one hand, this can in principle influence on various structural elements of the anti-abuse device 16 are taken, on the other hand, the anti-abuse device 16 can be automated or non-automated brought into their releasable state.
- the protection system 10 further comprises pressure-changing means 18 in order to generate a setpoint pressure p (13), which deviates measurably from the ambient pressure p (0), when the outer shell 14 is closed in the pressure chamber 13.

- the pressure sensor 20 serves to control initialization means 22, by means of which a triggering device 16.1 of the anti-abuse device 16 can be initialized. This initialization takes place as soon as the pressure p (13) in the pressure chamber deviates from the setpoint pressure p (s) by more than a predefinable tolerance value ⁇ p, but only if the abuse device 16 has previously been brought into its triggerable state.
- the initialization means 22 can according to Fig. 1A within the outer shell 14 and remotely controllable or programmable.
- the initialization means 22 may also be arranged outside the outer shell 14, in which case the connection to the tripping means 16.1 can be carried out without a conductor. An initialization of the triggering means 16.1 results in the triggering of the anti-abuse device 16.
- the protection system 10 in the further control means 24 can be used to select the respectively required state of the anti-abuse protection system 16, that is to say its dormant state or its triggerable state.
- the control means 24 may also serve to set the target pressure p (s) and the tolerance pressure value ⁇ p.
- the control means 24 can serve to determine the time of the generation of the setpoint pressure p (s) or to determine the time period during which a manipulation on the outer shell 14 sets the anti-abuse device 16.1 in operation. Preferably, however, building up the setpoint pressure p (s) is completely self-sufficient, i. not influenceable, from.

- Simple protection systems according to the invention act with control means in the form of once fixed adjustable time switches. More complex control means are programmable, which means that they can still be influenced after the start of the procedure.
- FIGS. 2A and 2B show a possible pressure curve in the pressure chamber 13 in carrying out the method according to the invention.
- the current time t is plotted on the horizontal and the respective pressure p (13) prevailing in the pressure chamber 13 is plotted on the vertical.
- the ambient pressure is designated p (0).
- the outer shell 14 is closed, wherein, for example, with rapid slamming of a cover of the outer shell 14, an initial pressure p (a) can be set, which is a little higher than the ambient pressure p (0).
- the means for generating the desired pressure p (s) are then set in motion, and at time t3, the target pressure p (s) is reached.
- the protection system 10 is at a suitable time t4, that is, for example, if a theft-prone transport imminent, activated, that is, the anti-abuse device 16 is brought into its triggerable state. However, the protection system 10 may also have been activated at another time.
- the setpoint pressure p (s) remains for the time being or approaches minimum the ambient pressure p (0), this if the outer shell 14 is not completely sealed.
- the pressure p (13) is detected continuously or at short intervals by the pressure sensor 20.
- the pressure p (13) will not change until the time t6 to the ambient pressure p (0) after the outer shell 14 is opened by authorized persons.
- the necessary measures are taken at time t5 to bring the anti-abuse device 16 in its non-triggerable, that is, resting or, if present, in their less sensitive state, in this case unwanted triggering prevent the abuse prevention device 16.
- This pressure curve is in the FIGS. 2A and 2B shown by solid lines.
- the ambient pressure which is variable depending on the weather conditions and altitude above sea level as well as on the ambient temperature, can also be taken into account. In this way, it can be prevented, for example, that the anti-abuse device is erroneously set in motion because the pressure p (13) has risen due to a high ambient temperature, thereby increased temperature in the outer shell and thus an increased pressure in the outer shell 14.
- a variable set pressure p (s) prevents unauthorized persons from preventing the initialization of the anti-abuse device 16 by appropriate measures, for example by opening the outer shell 14 in a pressure chamber.

- Such an integrated pump may be an external pump disposed within the outer shell 14 or an internal pump as shown in FIG Fig. 3A shown outside the outer shell 14 is arranged. It can also be used a non-integrated pump, which is only temporarily connected to the other components of the protection system 10.
- Integrated external pumps and non-integrated pumps make it possible to carry out the power supply for the generation of the target pressure in a structurally simple and energetically not limited manner.
- a pressure vessel is provided, which communicates via an opening with a check valve with the pressure chamber 13.
- the pressure p (13) in the pressure chamber is reduced and the pressure in the pressure vessel is increased.
- Fig. 3B shows a further embodiment of the inventive protection system 10, in which for generating the target pressure p (s) a physical process, but not by means of a pump, set in motion.
- the target pressure p (s) generated in this way is correspondingly Fig. 2A , above the ambient pressure p (0).
- a pressure-changing means 18 a pressure vessel is provided substantially.
- the pressure vessel contains a fluid 18.2 which is under a fluid pressure p (f) which deviates more from the ambient pressure p (0) than the desired pressure p (s) to be generated.
- Fig. 3C shows a still further embodiment of the inventive protection system 10, in which for generating the target pressure p (s), a chemical process is set in motion.
- a setpoint pressure p (s) is generated in this case, which corresponds accordingly Fig. 2A is above the ambient pressure p (0) by the chemical reaction leads to an increase in pressure in the pressure chamber 13, as is the case in particular in pyrotechnic processes.
- it can also be carried out a chemical reaction, which leads to a reduction in pressure in the pressure chamber 13, so that the target pressure p (s) accordingly Fig. 2B is below the ambient pressure p (0).
- a suitable amount of an explosive with an ignition system 18.3 are arranged in the pressure chamber 13, which is either preprogrammed or externally controllable. The ignition of the explosive takes place at an appropriate time after the inner shell 12 has been included with the valuables 1 in the outer shell 14.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Schutzverfahren und ein Schutzsystem für Wertsachen nach dem Patentanspruch 1 bzw. 7.The invention relates to a protection method and a protection system for valuables according to
Wertsachen, insbesondere Geld, müssen dauernd, das heisst während ihrer Aufbewahrung und während Transporten, geschützt werden. Üblicherweise werden die Wertsachen in Innenhüllen in Form von Kassetten eingeschlossen, wie sie zum Beispiel im Dokument
Das Dokument
Unter dem Begriff des ,eingeschlossen' ist nicht zwingend zu verstehen, dass die Innenhüllen und auch die weiter unten erwähnten Aussenhüllen mit mechanischen, schlüsselbetätigbaren Schlössern im herkömmlichen Sinne verschliessbar sind; die Innenhüllen und die Aussenhüllen können auch einer geeigneten anderen Weise in geschlossener bzw. zugemachter Form gegen ein Öffnen gesichert sein, derart, dass die Wertsachen in einer Art Kapsel eingekapselt sind, deren Inneres nur durch geeignete Manipulationen zugänglich ist.The term "enclosed" does not necessarily mean that the inner sheaths and also the outer shells mentioned below are provided with mechanical, key-operated locks are closable in the conventional sense; the inner and outer sheaths may also be secured in a suitably different manner in a closed or closed manner against being opened, such that the valuables are encapsulated in a kind of capsule, the interior of which is accessible only by suitable manipulations.
Während der Aufbewahrung der Wertsachen, zum Beispiel in einem Cash-Center oder in einer Bank, werden solche Kassetten meist in Sicherheitsvorrichtungen gelagert. Auch beim Transport mittels Fahrzeugen werden vorzugsweise Fahrzeuge benutzt, deren Laderäume Sicherheitsvorrichtungen für die Kassetten enthalten.During storage of the valuables, for example in a cash center or in a bank, such cassettes are usually stored in security devices. Also, when transporting vehicles preferably vehicles are used, the holds contain safety devices for the cassettes.
Die Diebstahlsgefahr für die Kassetten ist besonders hoch bei Transporten zwischen Fahrzeugen und Gebäuden oder auf grösseren Transportwegen innerhalb von Gebäudekomplexen. Um die Wertsachen bzw. die Innenhüllen bzw. Kassetten hierbei zu schützen, werden sie in spezielle Aussenhüllen eingeschlossen, und es ist eine Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung vorgesehen, die bei unbefugten Manipulationen an der Aussenhülle ausgelöst wird. Die Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung kann in oder an der Innenhülle angeordnet und beispielsweise dazu ausgebildet sein, die Wertsachen zu markieren und/oder zu entwerten, derart, dass sie nicht missbräuchlich genutzt werden können. Die Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung kann auch andere Massnahmen, beispielsweise einen akustisches oder optisches Warnsignal, das vor Ort oder in einer Zentrale durch Überwachungspersonal erfasst werden kann.The risk of theft for the cassettes is particularly high for transports between vehicles and buildings or on larger transport routes within building complexes. In order to protect the valuables or the inner casings or cassettes in this case, they are enclosed in special outer shells, and there is provided an anti-abuse device that is triggered by unauthorized manipulation of the outer shell. The abuse protection device can be arranged in or on the inner shell and, for example, be designed to mark and / or value the valuables in such a way that they can not be misused. The anti-abuse device may also include other measures, such as an audible or visual warning signal, that may be detected on-site or at a control center by surveillance personnel.
Die bisher verwendeten Aussenhüllen und insbesondere ihre Sicherheitseinrichtungen sind aufwändig in der Herstellung und im Allgemeinen nur zur Aufnahme von Kassetten mit bestimmten Massen und bestimmter Ausführung geeignet.The outer shells used hitherto, and in particular their safety devices, are complex in their manufacture and generally only suitable for receiving cassettes with certain masses and specific designs.
Besonders der Aufwand um Kassetten oder Transportkoffer mechanisch gegen unerlaubten Zugriff zu schützen wird immer grösser. Damit werden die Koffer auch immer schwerer und teurer. Auch die bisher verwendete Elektronik wird immer aufwendiger und dadurch aber auch komplizierter in der Handhabung.In particular, the effort to mechanically protect cassettes or transport cases from unauthorized access is increasing. This makes the suitcases ever heavier and more expensive. The electronics used so far is becoming more complex and thereby more complicated to use.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher,
- ein Schutzverfahren zum Schützen von Wertsachen der eingangs genannten Art vorzuschlagen, mit welchem eine hohe Sicherheit gewährleistet und gleichzeitig die Nachteile bekannter Schutzsysteme vermieden werden; und
- ein Schutzsystem zum Schützen von Wertsachen der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, das bei hoher Sicherheit einfach in der Herstellung und Anwendung ist.
- to propose a protective method for protecting valuables of the type mentioned, with which ensures a high level of security while avoiding the disadvantages of known protection systems; and
- to provide a protection system for protecting valuables of the type mentioned, which is easy to manufacture and use with high security.
Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt erfindungsgemäss
- für das Schutzverfahren durch die Merkmale des
unabhängigen Anspruchs 1; und - für das Schutzsystem durch die Merkmale des unabhängigen Anspruchs 7.
- for the protection method by the features of
independent claim 1 ; and - for the protection system by the features of independent claim 7 .
Bevorzugte Weiterbildungen des erfindungsgemässen Schutzverfahrens und des erfindungsgemässen Schutzsystems sind durch die jeweiligen abhängigen Ansprüche definiert.Preferred developments of the inventive protective method and of the protective system according to the invention are defined by the respective dependent claims.
Erfindungsgemäss wird eine Aussenhülle verwendet, die gasdicht verschliessbar ist. Zwischen der Innenhülle und der Aussenhülle wird dadurch ein Druckraum gebildet, der nach dem Schliessen der Aussenhülle mit einem Anfangsdruck beaufschlagt ist. Dieser Anfangsdruck unterscheidet sich üblicherweise nur wenig oder gar nicht vom Umgebungsdruck. Im Druckraum wird nun ein Solldruck erzeugt, der vom Umgebungsdruck abweicht, das heisst, der über oder unter dem Umgebungsdruck liegt. Der Druck im Druckraum wird mittels eines Drucksensors überwacht. Ausgehend vom Drucksensor erfolgt ein Auslösen der Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung, sobald der Druck im Druckraum um mehr als einen Toleranzdruckwert vom Solldruck abweicht.According to the invention, an outer shell is used, which can be closed gas-tight. Between the inner shell and the outer shell thereby a pressure chamber is formed, which is acted upon after closing the outer shell with an initial pressure. This initial pressure usually differs little or not from the ambient pressure. In the pressure chamber, a target pressure is now generated, which deviates from the ambient pressure, that is, which is above or below the ambient pressure. The pressure in the pressure chamber is monitored by means of a pressure sensor. Starting from the pressure sensor, the anti-abuse protection device is triggered as soon as the pressure in the pressure chamber deviates from the target pressure by more than a tolerance pressure value.
Es sind Mittel vorgesehen, um den Zustand der Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung zwischen einem ruhenden Zustand und einem auslösbaren Zustand zu verändern. Die Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung wird in den auslösbaren Zustand gebracht, vorzugsweise nachdem im Druckraum der Solldruck erreicht ist, und sie wird in den ruhenden Zustand zurück gebracht, wenn die Aussenhülle von einer dazu befugten Person geöffnet werden soll.Means are provided to change the state of the anti-abuse device between a dormant state and a triggerable state. The abuse protection device is brought into the releasable state, preferably after the target pressure has been reached in the pressure chamber, and it will be returned to the dormant state if the outer shell is to be opened by a person authorized to do so.
Der Solldruck kann beispielsweise mit Hilfe einer Pumpe erzeugt werden, wozu in der Aussenhülle eine Öffnung vorhanden ist, durch welche beim Pumpvorgang Luft durchtritt, und die dicht schliessbar ist, sobald die Pumpe den Druck im Druckraum auf den Solldruck erhöht oder gesenkt hat. Die Pumpe kann innerhalb oder ausserhalb der Aussenhülle angeordnet sein. Eine solche Veränderung des Druckes wird als eine Veränderung mit externer Luftkommunikation bezeichnet.The target pressure can be generated for example by means of a pump, for which purpose an opening is present in the outer shell through which air passes during the pumping process, and which can be closed tightly as soon as the pump has increased or decreased the pressure in the pressure chamber to the desired pressure. The pump can be arranged inside or outside the outer shell. Such a change in pressure is referred to as a change with external air communication.
Der Solldruck kann auch ohne externe Luftkommunikation, intern aber ggfs. extern gesteuert, erzeugt werden, und zwar durch einen physikalischen und/oder chemischen Vorgang.The target pressure can also be generated without external air communication, internally but possibly externally controlled, by a physical and / or chemical process.
Ein physikalischer Vorgang zur Erzeugung des Solldruckes kann sich so abspielen, dass ein zeitlich steuerbarer physikalischer Vorgang abläuft. Eine Öffnung in der Aussenhülle, wie sie bei der oben beschriebenen Verwendung einer Pumpe notwendig ist und die eine Schwachstelle bilden kann, erübrigt sich hierbei. Ein Solldruck, der über dem Anfangsdruck liegt, kann durch eine Expansion eines Fluides in gasförmiger Form aus einem Druckbehälter in den Druckraum erzeugt werden. In diesem Falle wird vorzugsweise ein Solldruck gewählt, der über dem Umgebungs- bzw. Anfangsdruck liegt. Ein Solldruck der unter dem Anfangsdruck liegt, kann durch Pumpen von Luft aus dem Druckraum über ein Rückschlagventil in einen im Druckraum angeordneten Druckbehälter erzeugt werden.A physical process for generating the desired pressure can take place in such a way that a time-controllable physical process takes place. An opening in the outer shell, as it is necessary in the use of a pump described above and can form a vulnerability, is unnecessary here. A target pressure which is above the initial pressure can be generated by an expansion of a fluid in gaseous form from a pressure vessel into the pressure space. In this case, a target pressure is preferably selected which is above the ambient or initial pressure. A target pressure which is below the initial pressure can be generated by pumping air from the pressure chamber via a check valve in a pressure chamber arranged in the pressure vessel.
Eine andere Möglichkeit zur Erzeugung des Solldruckes besteht darin, im Druckraum einen zeitlich steuerbaren chemischen, beispielsweise pyrotechnischen, Vorgang zu erzeugen.Another possibility for generating the target pressure is to generate a time-controllable chemical, such as pyrotechnic, process in the pressure chamber.
Zur Erhöhung des Schutzes und zur Berücksichtigung von Veränderungen des Umgebungsdruckes, die in Folge von Veränderungen des Luftdruckes und/oder der Temperatur und/oder der Höhenlage eintreten können, ist es vorteilhaft, wenn der Solldruck veränderbar ist.To increase the protection and to take account of changes in the ambient pressure, which may occur as a result of changes in the air pressure and / or the temperature and / or the altitude, it is advantageous if the target pressure is variable.
Ausserdem ist es zur Erhöhung des Schutzes vorteilhaft, wenn der Solldruck zeitlich wählbar oder nach einem Zufallsprinzip veränderbar ist.In addition, it is advantageous for increasing the protection if the target pressure can be selected in terms of time or changed according to a random principle.
Wie schon erwähnt, ist die Innenhülle üblicherweise eine Kassette, beispielsweise eine Geldkassette, und sie umfasst üblicherweise die Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung.As already mentioned, the inner cover is usually a cassette, for example a cashbox, and it usually comprises the anti-abuse device.
Die Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung kann beispielsweise eine mit der Innenhülle verbundenen Vorrichtung zum Devaluieren der Wertsachen, beispielsweise mit einem färbenden oder ätzenden Stoff, sein.The anti-abuse device may for example be a device connected to the inner shell for devaluing the valuables, for example with a coloring or etching substance.
Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, eine starre Aussenhülle zu verwenden, beispielsweise eine Aussenhülle in der Art eines Schalenkoffers. Wesentliche Vorteile davon sind, dass solche Schalenkoffer preisgünstig sind, und dass ein bestimmter Schalenkoffer als Aussenhülle für Innenhüllen verschiedener Typen und Abmessungen benutzt werden kann.It is particularly advantageous to use a rigid outer shell, for example an outer shell in the manner of a shell suitcase. The main advantages of this are that such shell cases are inexpensive, and that a particular shell case can be used as an outer shell for inner cases of various types and dimensions.
Die Aussenhülle kann eine innere und eine äussere Wandung aufweisen, wobei der Druckraum zwischen diesen beiden Wandungen gebildet ist. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass der Druckraum ein kleineres Volumen aufweist, so dass die Erzeugung des Solldruckes einen geringeren Aufwand erfordert.The outer shell may have an inner and an outer wall, wherein the pressure space between these two walls is formed. This has the advantage that the pressure chamber has a smaller volume, so that the generation of the desired pressure requires less effort.

Die
Die Innenhülle 12 ist im vorliegenden Fall eine (ATM-)Kassette und wird üblicherweise zum Aufbewahren und zum Transportieren der Wertsachen 1 benutzt. Die Aussenhülle 14 ist dicht schliessbar und insbesondere dazu bestimmt, die Innenhülle 12 mit den Wertsachen 1 während eines Transportes aufzunehmen. Im vorliegenden Fall ist die Aussenhülle 14 im Wesentlichen starr. Als Aussenhülle 14 kann beispielsweise ein üblicher Hartschalenkoffer oder ein hartschalenkofferartiges Gebinde verwendet werden. Vorzugsweise handelt es sich um einen Schalenkoffer, der vorzugsweise aus einem Kunststoffmaterial gefertigt ist. Besonders bevorzugt sind Schalenkoffer aus thermoplastischen Material, vorzugsweise kydex® Material.The
Innerhalb der Aussenhülle 14 wird, wenn die letztere geschlossen ist, ein Druckraum 13 gebildet, in dem ein Druck p(13) herrscht, der je nach Situation bzw. Zeitpunkt unterschiedlich ist, wie dies weiter unten erläutert wird.Within the
Der Druckraum 13 im Wesentlichen durch die Innenhülle 12 und die Aussenhülle 14 begrenzt. Die Aussenhülle 14 kann aber auch zweischichtig sein, wobei dann der Druckraum durch eine äusserer Wandung 14.1 und eine innere Wandung 14.2 der Aussenhülle begrenzt ist.The
Das Schutzsystem 10 umfasst eine Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung 16, die dazu dient, die Wertsachen 1 zu markieren und/oder zu devaluieren, wenn eine unbefugte Manipulation am Schutzsystem 10 festgestellt wird. Dieses Markieren oder Devaluieren der Wertsachen 1 findet zum Beispiel so statt, dass ein färbender oder ätzender Stoff unter Druck auf die Wertsachen 1 abgegeben wird, so dass sie nicht mehr verwertbar sind und es dadurch uninteressant wird, sie zu missbrauchen bzw. zu entwenden. Die Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung 16 kann auch ein optisches oder akustisches Signal generieren.The
Es sind mit der Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung 16 verbundene Mittel vorgesehen, um den Zustand der Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung 16 zwischen einem ruhenden Zustand, in dem sie nicht auslösbar oder weniger sensibel eingestellt ist, und einem auslösbaren Zustand zu verändern. Die Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung 16 kann in verschiedener Weise in ihren auslösbaren Zustand gebracht werden. Einerseits kann hierzu grundsätzlich Einfluss auf verschiedene konstruktive Elemente der Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung 16 genommen werden, anderseits kann die Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung 16 automatisiert oder nicht-automatisiert in ihren auslösbaren Zustand gebracht werden.Means associated with the
Das Schutzsystem 10 umfasst im Weiteren druckverändernde Mittel 18, um bei geschlossener Aussenhülle 14 im Druckraum 13 einen Solldruck p(13) zu erzeugen, der vom Umgebungsdruck p(0) messbar abweicht. Diese Mittel 18 können dauernd in bzw. an der Aussenhülle 14 angeordnet sein, wie dies weiter unten genauer erläutert wird, oder sie können temporär ausserhalb der Aussenhülle 14 angeordnet werden.The
Im Druckraum 13 befindet sich ein Drucksensor 20, der den jeweiligen Druck p(13) im Druckraum 13 erfasst. Der Drucksensor 20 dient dazu, Initialisierungsmittel 22 zu steuern, durch welche eine Auslösevorrichtung 16.1 der Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung 16 initialisiert werden kann. Diese Initialisierung erfolgt, sobald der Druck p(13) im Druckraum vom Solldruck p(s) um mehr als einen vorgebbaren Toleranzwert Δp abweicht, jedoch nur, wenn die Missbrauchsvorrichtung 16 zuvor in ihren auslösbaren Zustand gebracht worden ist. Die Initialisierungsmittel 22 können gemäss
Beim vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel weist das Schutzsystem 10 im weiteren Steuermittel 24 auf. Die Steuermittel 24 können dazu benutzt werden, den jeweils erforderlichen Zustand des Missbrauchsschutzsystems 16, das heisst dessen ruhenden Zustand oder dessen auslösbaren Zustand zu wählen. Die Steuermittel 24 können auch dazu dienen, den Solldruck p(s) und den Toleranzdruckwert Δp festzulegen. Ausserdem können die Steuermittel 24 dazu dienen, den Zeitpunkt der Erzeugung des Solldruckes p(s) festzulegen oder die Zeitspanne zu bestimmen, während welcher eine Manipulation an der Aussenhülle 14 die Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung 16.1 in Betrieb setzt. Vorzugsweise läuft das Aufbauen des Solldrucks p(s) jedoch vollkommen autark, d.h. nicht beeinflussbar, ab. Wie die Initialisierungsmittel 22 können auch die Steuermittel 24 innerhalb der Aussenhülle 14 und fernsteuerbar oder programmierbar sein. Die Steuermittel 24 können auch ausserhalb der Aussenhülle 14 angeordnet sein, mit leiterloser Verbindung zu den Mitteln 18 zur Erzeugung des Solldruckes p(s), zum Drucksensor 20 und zu den Auslösemitteln 16.1. Einfache Schutzsysteme nach der Erfindung wirken mit Steuermitteln in der Art von einmalig fest einstellbaren Zeitschaltern. Aufwändigere Steuermittel sind programmierbar, das heisst sie können auch nach Beginn des Verfahrens noch beeinflusst werden.In the present embodiment, the
Die
Im üblichen Fall, das heisst, wenn keine missbräuchliche Manipulation an der Aussenhülle 14 eintritt, wird sich der Druck p(13) erst wieder im Zeitpunkt t6 auf den Umgebungsdruck p(0) ändern, nachdem die Aussenhülle 14 durch dazu befugte Personen geöffnet wird. Vor einem solchen erlaubten Öffnen der Aussenhülle 14 werden im Zeitpunkt t5 die notwendigen Massnahmen getroffen, um die Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung 16 in ihren nicht auslösbaren, das heisst ruhenden oder, falls vorhanden, in ihren weniger sensiblen Zustand zurück zu bringen, um ein in diesem Fall unerwünschtes Auslösen der Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung 16 zu verhindern. Dieser Druckverlauf ist in den
Erfolgt dagegen im Zeitpunkt t* eine unerlaubte Manipulation an der Aussenhülle 14, die das Entstehen einer Öffnung der Aussenhülle 14 zur Folge hat, so ändert sich der Druck p(13), ausgehend vom Solldruck p(s) auf den Umgebungsdruck p(0). Im Zeitpunkt t**, das heisst sobald der Druck p(13) um die Druckdifferenz Δp vom Solldruck p(s) abweicht, werden die Initialisierungsmittel 22 die Auslösemittel 16.1 initialisieren und die letzteren werden die Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung 16 auslösen, da sich diese noch in ihrem auslösbaren Zustand befindet. Dieser Druckverlauf ist in den
Um eine fehlerhafte Auslösung der Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung 16 zu verhindern, kann auch im Zeitpunkt t* lediglich ein Signal abgegeben werden, das einer Bestätigung innerhalb einer bestimmten Vorwarn-Zeitspanne bedarf, um die fehlerhafte Auslösung der Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung 16 zu verhindern.In order to prevent erroneous triggering of the
Bei der Festlegung des jeweiligen Solldruckes p(s) können auch der Umgebungsdruck, der je nach Wetterlage und Höhe über Meer sowie je nach Umgebungstemperatur veränderlich ist, berücksichtigt werden. Auf diese Weise kann zum Beispiel verhindert werden, dass die Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung irrtümlich in Gang gesetzt wird, weil der Druck p(13) infolge einer hohen Umgebungstemperatur, einer dadurch erhöhten Temperatur in der Aussenhülle und somit einem erhöhten Druck in der Aussenhülle 14 angestiegen ist.When determining the respective desired pressure p (s), the ambient pressure, which is variable depending on the weather conditions and altitude above sea level as well as on the ambient temperature, can also be taken into account. In this way, it can be prevented, for example, that the anti-abuse device is erroneously set in motion because the pressure p (13) has risen due to a high ambient temperature, thereby increased temperature in the outer shell and thus an increased pressure in the
Ein veränderbarer Solldruck p(s) verhindert, dass Unbefugte die Initialisierung der Missbrauchsschutzvorrichtung 16 durch entsprechende Massnahmen verhindern, beispielsweise, indem die Aussenhülle 14 in einer Druckkammer geöffnet wird.A variable set pressure p (s) prevents unauthorized persons from preventing the initialization of the
In
Als Pumpe kann eine integrierte Pumpe eingesetzt werden, die permanent mit der Schutzvorrichtung 10 verbunden ist. Eine solche integrierte Pumpe kann eine externe Pumpe sein, die, innerhalb der Aussenhülle 14 angeordnet ist, oder eine interne Pumpe, die wie in
Um bei der Verwendung einer Pumpe als druckveränderndes Mittel 18 einen Durchbruch 18.1 in der Aussenhülle 14, der eine Schwachstelle darstellen kann, zu vermeiden, kann die nachfolgend beschriebene Anordnung gewählt werden.In order to avoid a breakthrough 18.1 in the
Innerhalb des Druckraums 13 ist ein Druckbehälter vorgesehen, der über eine Öffnung mit einem Rückschlagventil mit dem Druckraum 13 kommuniziert. Bei Einschalten der Pumpe wird der Druck p(13) im Druckraum reduziert und der Druck im Druckbehälter erhöht.Within the
Wie bereits eingangs erwähnt, geht es bei der Verwendung des Begriffs "einschliessen" nicht notwendigerweise um einen Schliessvorgang mit einer Art Schloss, sondern um das Einbringen und Zumachen.As already mentioned, the use of the term "include" is not necessarily a closing process with a kind of lock, but the introduction and closing.
Besonders bewährt hat sich das Vorgeben eines Unterdrucks, da im Falle eines Unterdrucks das Gesamtsystem sehr viel sensibler auf Manipulationen reagiert. Die Druckänderung im Falle einer Manipulation ist beim Vorgeben eines Unterdrucks sehr viel deutlicher.It has proven particularly useful to specify a negative pressure, since in the case of a negative pressure, the entire system reacts much more sensitively to manipulations. The pressure change in case of a manipulation is much more obvious when setting a negative pressure.
In einer gegenwärtig bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung kommt ein doppelwandiger Behälter zum Einsatz, der eine Innenhülle aufweist, die in einer Aussenhülle eingeschlossen ist. Dieser Behälter wird bereit so angefertigt und der sich zwischen Innenhülle und Aussenhülle ergebende Druckraum wird mit Überdruck oder Unterdruck (bevorzugte Variante) beaufschlagt und hermetisch abgeschlossen.In a presently preferred embodiment of the invention, a double-walled container is used which has an inner shell enclosed in an outer shell. This container is prepared so prepared and the resulting pressure between the inner shell and outer shell pressure chamber is subjected to pressure or negative pressure (preferred variant) and hermetically sealed.
Bevorzugt sind Ausführungsformen bei denen man mit einem speziellen Gas arbeitet. Es können Sensoren zum Einsatz kommen, die nicht nur Änderungen des Drucks, sondern auch das Vorhandensein, bzw. die Abwesenheit dieses speziellen Gases detektieren.Embodiments in which one works with a special gas are preferred. Sensors may be used which detect not only changes in pressure but also the presence or absence of that particular gas.
