ABSTRACT:
A secure container, for example a portable cassette for banknotes, has a shutter at one end movable by a sliding shutter bar (2). The shutter is lockable by the action of a shutter locking bar (8) pivoted at its center between a locking position (as shown in FIG. 1) and a primed position at which the shutter locking bar is parallel to the container walls and its end is aligned with an aperture 2a in the shutter bar (2) allowing the shutter bar to slide within the container and open the shutter.
The shutter locking bar (8) is moved to its primed position by a lock (5) with a rotatable lock pin (6) engaging an operating arm (7) coupled to the shutter locking bar (8). An interlock pawl (11) pivotally mounted on a flange of the arm (7) has a catch engaging the lock pin (6), so as to prevent improper priming of the shutter locking bar (8) until the operation of the lock (5).
