Abstract (en)

A safety cash box comprising a housing body (25) and a slide drawer (26, 27) which can be moved back and forth within the housing is disclosed, wherein the drawer can be brought into a retracted, locked and further jammed condition when, at the occurrence of disturbing conditions, an outer pushbutton is pressed, or when a remotely generated electrical signal is applied to act on an electromagnet triggering device (14, 15, 16) arranged in the safety cash box. The safety cash box comprises, a mechanical arrangement intended to keep the slide drawer firmly in a locked position prevented from being shifted forward and, may also comprise, co-operating backup security means which act to cause the drawer to become forcibly wedged in place in response to mechanical failure brought about on the locking arrangement. To this effect, the shearing strength of the locking device is purposely worked out to have a breaking down point, which when exceeded by a shearing stress so applied as to have the drawer dislodged, the back-up security means is actuated.
