Abstract
A locking device is disclosed which substantially restricts access to the cassettes or drawers within a vault or safe, including an ATM or ABM, and also restricts access to the cassette rack of the ATM/ABM, both resident within the vault or safe of an ATM/ABM. The blocking member restricts access to the cassettes or drawers and the cassette rack is mounted on a pair of supporting pins on a mounting bracket attached to the interior of a vault or safe, including an ATM/ABM. The blocking member may be removed from the supporting pins only after unlocking and withdrawal of a lock bolt from a strike hole in the mounting bracket. The blocking member must be lifted off the support pins and laid aside and later re-installed. By extending the bolt into the strike hole of the mounting bracket, the only available degree of freedom is eliminated preventing removal of the blocking member from the mounting bracket. Pivoting of the blocking member about the supporting pins is restricted by pivot blocks and/or a selection of cross sectional shapes of the pins and the mating holes in the blocking member. Locks of various natures may be used to control the removal of the blocking member. A requisite lock would have an extendible bolt which may extend into and through the strike hole in the mounting bracket.
