ABSTRACT:
A pre-payment machine includes a strong-box intended for temporarily storing coins introduced into the machine prior to their collection by means of a connected collection device, this strong-box being especially designed in order to be protected against break-ins. The strong-box is made up of two sections: the first is a receptacle which forms an integral part of the housing itself of the machine and has a collection aperture usually closed by a seal; and the other is a lid secured to the receptacle by means controlled by the seal and disposed substantially within the receptacle. In one embodiment the securing means is a pin which engages the lid and the seal when in its closed position. In a second embodiment the securing means is one or more tabs formed integral with the slide which engage openings formed in a part of the lid, and one or more tabs formed integral with a part of the lid which engage openings formed in the bottom of the receptacle when the seal is in its closed position. The seal can only be maneuvered in the open position by coupling the collection device with the housing of the machine.
