ABSTRACT:
A tampering-proof container for storing currency for use in conjunction with an automated teller machine (ATM). The currency door of the container through which the currency passes when the container is mounted on an ATM is moved positively between the open and closed positions when on the ATM. An indicator wheel within the container gives an indication or count of the number of times the currency door has been opened and closed to provide a check on potential sophisticated pilfering. When the count on the indicator wheel reaches a programmed predetermined amount, the currency door is locked in a closed position with first and second locking linkage inside the container locking the currency door in the closed position. A seal on a loading door on the container must be broken to gain access to the inside of the container to unlock the first and second locking linkage and to reset the indicator wheel. Special linkage, including an "L"-shaped lever which must be pivoted at least partly outside the housing of the container, insures that the unlocking of the first and second locking linkage is effected only when the loading door is opened.
