Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine überwachungsvorrichtung zum Sichern von Automaten, die durch einen Codeträger betätigbar sind, insbesondere von Geldautomaten.The invention relates to a monitoring device for securing automatic machines that can be actuated by a code carrier, in particular automated teller machines.

Zur Versorgung von Bankkunden mit Bargeld, insbesondere außerhalb der Öffnungszeiten der Bank, sind Geldautomaten installiert. In diese Geldautomaten wird eine Scheckkarte mit einer Magnetleiste eingesteckt. Nach Eingeben einer "persönlichen Geheimzahl" auf einem Tastenfeld des Geld­automaten kann dem Geldautomaten ein ebenfalls auf dem Tastenfeld eingegebener Geldbetrag entnommen werden.ATMs are installed to provide bank customers with cash, especially outside bank opening hours. A check card with a magnetic strip is inserted into these ATMs. After entering a "personal secret number" on a keypad of the ATM, a cash amount likewise entered on the keypad can be withdrawn.

Bei Diebstahl oder Verlust der Scheckkarte besteht die Gefahr eines Mißbrauchs. Oft wird die "persönliche Geheimzahl" dem rechtmäßigen Eigentümer durch Tricks entlockt oder ist sonstwie einem Dieb oder Finder bekannt geworden. Dieser kann dann zu Lasten des Eigentümers über einen Geldautomaten Geld abheben.If the credit card is stolen or lost, there is a risk of misuse. The "personal secret number" is often elicited from the rightful owner by tricks or has otherwise become known to a thief or finder. The owner can then withdraw money from the ATM at the expense of the owner.

Aähnliche Probleme können bei anderen Automaten auftreten, die durch den Magnetcode einer Scheck- oder Kreditkarte betätigbar sind, beispielsweise bei Automaten zum Verkauf von Flugscheinen.Similar problems can occur with other machines which can be operated by the magnetic code of a check or credit card, for example with machines for selling tickets.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, solche Automaten gegen Mißbrauch zu sichern.The invention has for its object to secure such machines against misuse.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe gelöst durch

  • (a) eine Bildaufzeichnungsvorrichtung, die
    - bei Betätigung des Automaten aktivierbar ist und
    - ein Bild eines Gesichtsfeldes aufnimmt und speichert, in welchem sich der Benutzer bei einer Betätigung des Automaten befinden muß,
  • (b) Sensormittel, die auf die Anwesenheit von Gegenständen in einer Sperrzone ansprechen, welche einen an die Bildaufzeichnungsvorrichtung anschließenden Bereich umfaßt, und
  • (c) Mittel zum Sperren des Automaten bei Ansprechen der Sensormittel.
According to the invention, this object is achieved by
  • (a) an image recording device which
    - Can be activated when the machine is operated and
    takes and stores an image of a visual field in which the user must be when the machine is operated,
  • (b) sensor means responsive to the presence of objects in a restricted zone comprising an area adjacent to the image recording device, and
  • (c) means for locking the machine when the sensor means responds.

Jeder Benutzer wird bei Betätigung des Automaten durch eine Bildaufzeichnungsvorrichtung festgehalten. Das ist vorzugsweise eine Videokamera. Eine Videokamera arbeitet auch bei sehr schwacher Beleuchtung noch ausreichend und kann sehr klein ausgeführt werden. Außerdem ist es möglich, die aufgezeichneten Bilder nach einiger Zeit wieder zu löschen, wenn kein Mißbrauch des Automaten festgestellt wurde. Auf diese Weise werden die Benutzer des Automaten aufgezeichnet, so daß bei einer mißbräuchlichen Benutzung jedenfalls eine aufgezeichnetes Bild des Benutzers zur Verfügung steht. Ein Benutzer, der den Automaten mißbräuchlich benutzt, könnte versuchen, die Aufzeichnung des Bildes durch Abdecken der Bild­aufzeichnungsvorrichtung zu verhindern. Dann würden aber die Sensormittel ansprechen und den Automaten sperren.Each user is captured by an image recorder when the machine is operated. This is preferably a video camera. A video camera works sufficiently even in very dim lighting and can be made very small. It is also possible to delete the recorded images after some time if no misuse of the machine has been found. In this way, the users of the machine are recorded, so that in the event of misuse, a recorded image of the user is available in any case. A user who misuses the machine could try to prevent the image from being recorded by covering the image recording device. Then would address the sensor means and lock the machine.

Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.Embodiments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist nachstehend unter Bezugnahme auf die zugehörigen Zeichnungen näher erläutert:

  • Fig. 1 zeigt schematisch einen Geldautomaten mit einer Überwachungsvorrichtung.
  • Fig. 2 ist ein schematisches Blockdiagramm des Geldautomaten und der Überwachungsvorrichtung.
An embodiment of the invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
  • Fig. 1 shows schematically an ATM with a monitoring device.
  • 2 is a schematic block diagram of the ATM and the monitoring device.

Mit 10 ist ein Geldautomat bezeichnet, dem nach Einstecken einer Scheckkarte und Eingabe eines Codes Geldbeträge entnommen werden können. Dieser Geldautomat wird durch eine eingebaute Videokamera 12 überwacht. Die Videokamera 12 erfaßt ein Gesichtsfeld 14, in welchem sich der Kopf des Benutzers bei der Bedienung des Geldautomaten befinden muß. Bei Betätigung des Geldautomaten durch die Scheckkarte wird die Videokamera 12 aktiviert und Zeichnet ein Bild des Benutzers auf.With 10 an ATM is designated, from which amounts of money can be withdrawn after inserting a check card and entering a code. This ATM is monitored by a built-in video camera 12. The video camera 12 captures a field of view 14 in which the user's head must be when operating the ATM. When the ATM is operated by the check card, the video camera 12 is activated and records an image of the user.

Ein in Fig. 1 nicht dargestellter Sensor 16 spricht an, wenn sich in einem Bereich 18, der sich an die Videokamera 12 anschließt, Gegenstände befinden. Durch diesen Sensor wird die Funktion des Geldautomaten 10 unterbrochen. Der Geldautomat gibt dann kein Geld ab.A sensor 16 (not shown in FIG. 1) responds when there are objects in an area 18 that connects to the video camera 12. The function of the ATM 10 is interrupted by this sensor. The ATM will then not issue any money.

In Fig. 2 ist die Funktion des Geldautomaten und der Überwachungsvorrichtung schematisch in Form eines Block­diagramms dargestellt.2, the function of the automated teller machine and the monitoring device is shown schematically in the form of a block diagram.

Der Geldautomat enthält einen Kartenleser 20. In diesen Kartenleser wird der Magnetstreifen der Scheckkarte mit dem Magnetcode eingeführt. Auf einem Tastenfeld 22 wird ein Code, die "persönliche Geheimzahl", eingegeben sowie nach Prüfung der Scheckkarte und des Codes der gewünschte Geldbetrag. Die Prüfung erfolgt in einem Steuerteil 24. Der Steuerteil 24 steuert eine Geldausgabevorrichtung 26.The cash machine contains a card reader 20. The magnetic strip of the check card with the magnetic code is inserted into this card reader. A code, the “personal secret number”, is entered on a keypad 22 and, after checking the check card and the code, the desired amount of money. The check takes place in a control part 24. The control part 24 controls a cash dispensing device 26.

Die Videokamera 12 ist mit einem Bildspeicher 28 verbunden. Der Bildspeicher 28 kann ein Videoband sein. Der Bildspeicher kann aber auch zum Speichern von Stand­bildern eingerichtet sein. Die Videokamera 12 ist von dem Steuerteil 24 einschaltbar, sobald der Geldautomat 10 mit einer Scheckkarte betätigt wird. Das ist durch Leitung 30 angedeutet. Weiterhin liefert der Steuerteil 24 Daten an den Bildspeicher 28, wie durch Leitung 32 angedeutet ist. Diese Daten werden in eindeutiger Zuordnung zu dem gespeicherten Bild gespeichert. Die Daten umfassen beispielsweise die Scheckkartennummer sowie Datum und Uhrzeit der Betätigung des Geldautomaten. Es kann auch eine laufende Nummer des Vorganges mit dem gespeicherten Bild gespeichert werden, wobei diese Nummer wiederum in eindeutiger Zuordnung zu den genannten Daten gespeichert wird.The video camera 12 is connected to an image memory 28. The image memory 28 can be a video tape. The image memory can also be set up for storing still images. The video camera 12 can be switched on by the control part 24 as soon as the automated teller machine 10 is operated with a check card. This is indicated by line 30. Furthermore, the control part 24 supplies data to the image memory 28, as indicated by line 32. This data is stored in a unique assignment to the saved image. The data include, for example, the credit card number and the date and time the ATM was operated. It is also possible to save a sequential number of the process with the stored image, this number in turn being stored in an unambiguous association with the data mentioned.

Der Sensor 16 spricht an, wenn sich ein Gegenstand innerhalb des Bereichs 18 befindet und damit das Gesichtsfeld 14 der Bildaufzeichnungsvorrichtung 12 abdeckt. Dieser Sensor kann ein automatischer Entfernungs­messer sein. Der Sensor 16 kann in der Videokamera 12 integriert sein. Der Sensor 16 steuert einen Sperr­mechanismus 34, welcher die Geldausgabe durch die Geldausgabevorrichtung 26 unterbricht. Durch ein Signal über Leitung 36 auf den Steuerteil 24 wird der Geld­ausgabevorgang abgebrochen.The sensor 16 responds when an object is within the area 18 and thus covers the field of view 14 of the image recording device 12. This sensor can be an automatic range finder. The sensor 16 can be integrated in the video camera 12. The sensor 16 controls a locking mechanism 34 which interrupts the cash dispensing by the cash dispensing device 26. The cash dispensing process is terminated by a signal via line 36 to the control part 24.

Der Bereich 18 ist so gewählt, daß der Benutzer bei normaler Bedienung des Geldautomaten 10 nicht in diesen Bereich 18 hineinzugreifen braucht. Der Bereich 18 ist andererseits so gewählt, daß man in den Bereich hineingreifen muß, wenn man auf unauffällige Weise das Gesichtsfeld der Videokamera abdecken will.The area 18 is selected such that the user does not have to reach into this area 18 during normal operation of the automated teller machine 10. The area 18 is selected on the other hand so that you have to reach into the area if you want to cover the field of view of the video camera in an inconspicuous manner.

Im Betrieb wird dann in bestimmten Zeitabständen die Aufzeichnung kontrolliert, ob ein Mißbrauch vorgelegen hat, ob beispielsweise eine Scheckkartennummer mit der Nummer einer als gestohlen gemeldeten Scheckkarte übereinstimmt. In diesem Fall kann ein Bild des Benutzers gewonnen werden. Liegen keine Mißbräuche vor, können die gespeicherten Bilder bequem wieder gelöscht werden.In operation, the record is then checked at certain time intervals to determine whether there has been misuse, for example whether a check card number matches the number of a check card reported as stolen. In this case, an image of the user can be obtained. If there are no abuses, the saved images can be easily deleted.
