Description

cabinet system

The invention relates to a cabinet system with a plurality of separate storage spaces, each storage space being protected against unauthorized access by a closure means,

Cabinet systems with storage rooms are widely known from the prior art. A particularly widespread application is the

Logged issuing of keys to authorized persons, in particular the issuing of keys to customer premises. This may be the case with building cleaning companies, care services or even security and security services. But an in-house key management can also be organized, e.g. for vehicle keys and papers of a vehicle fleet. Evidence of the whereabouts of e.g. a key is always relevant if, because of the possible liability for unauthorized use of a

Key must be able to be explained, who had which key and when.

In addition to the evidence of whereabouts but also plays a role in many areas of life, the issue of objects only to authorized persons

To ensure that means to prevent unauthorized use from the outset as possible.

US 5,038,023A essentially describes a system for storing keys or similar items in a common storage space from which an authorized recipient can remove and return keys and correspondingly record the removal or return of keys. In particular, FIG. 13 (flowchart) shows a method for

Detection of removal and / or return of items, such as

Keys, from a secured with a closure means stock, wherein first an identification means of the user is read, the data of the identification means are compared with stored data and, at

CONFIRMATION COPY In a positive comparison, the user can enter whether they want to remove or return keys or receive reports on key movements. If the user wishes to receive a particular key, he inputs this request and the controller checks whether the corresponding key exists. If so, the position of the desired key is displayed in the box with corresponding recordings for the keys within a secure drawer. Furthermore, an electrically operated lock is actuated, which then opens and allows the user

Drawer, which is integrated in a sturdy housing and contains the matrix box with the keys, can be pulled out. The user can now remove (or return) the desired keys. If the

Drawer closed by the user will be there

The system proposed automatically scans a bar code attached to key holders, so that after closing the drawer the system has determined which keys are still present in the drawer. The corresponding difference (entries and exits) will correspond to the account of the owner of the magnetic card or other means of identification

credited or debited. As already mentioned, also in the system described there each

Change in the key inventory attributed to the user who last opened the drawer, as long as he did not close the drawer again or did not close it properly. So who forgets to close this drawer, is responsible for the possibly lost keys.

The publication discloses a storage space for receiving the key in the form of the drawer, a closure means for completing the storage space in the form of drawer front, wherein the drawer closes the storage space in a first operating position and in a second open position allows access to the storage space, a device for recording a

Identification means (magnetic card reader), means for receiving the objects (grid), means for detecting the presence of the objects in the storage space (bar code reader) and a

Evaluation device for evaluating the signals for detecting whether Items in the pantry are present or not in the form of

Computer control.

Furthermore, the system comprises an electrically operated lock, the device for detecting an identification means a card laser, additionally or alternatively a code lock in the form of computer control with keyboard, furthermore, the device described comprises a grid for receiving the key, as the evaluation circuit is a computer provided which is connected to the card reader and the lock. Furthermore, the described device comprises a memory device in the form of

Computer hard disk and printer, screen, keyboard and floppy disk drive output devices.

In DE 94 19 793 U1 a key depot is described, in which a plurality of small compartments, each with its own doors is provided, and housed each key in a matching lock cylinder.

The device described in EP 0 340 420 A1 under the title "Device for detecting an object removal on a self-service unit"

The device comprises a cabinet or display case which is closed by a door, the door being secured by a lock. Inside the showcase is one or more grids to accommodate

Objects whose removal is to be monitored. A user, in particular waiter, can solve the lock of the display door by an identification device, here a key for codified key or instead of the lock a numeric keypad or a card reader actuated by a processor control checks the code of the key, the magnetic card or the numeric input and in the positive case, the lock is triggered, so that the door can be opened by the waiter. Under each bottle there is a microswitch which responds to the removal of the bottle and triggers an impulse registered by the process control and the waiter's account according to the code with which he has previously identified himself. is booked. All withdrawals will be credited to the waiter until the door is closed again.

The device described in the citation is expressly designed to detect only pickings of objects but not refilling. A documentation of a return is not provided.

The capture and storage of the assignment of a removal to the waiter is ongoing.

The GB 2 071 384 A entitled "Vending Machine with Doors" essentially describes electronic circuits for improving the data acquisition of vending machines such as hotel room bars or the like

Circuit optimization.

GB 2 146 154 A describes a device for monitoring and

Restricting the use of objects, e.g. Fahrzeugzündschlüsseln. It describes a console that has a number of identical ones

Includes recordings for a variety of items, such as keys. The recordings are individually scanned by a microprocessor circuit and the identity of the (individually coded) objects is detected and

recorded. For the removal of a key, the user inserts his identity card in the card reader in the console; if necessary, the entry of a PIN via a numeric keypad may be required. The data is transmitted by a

Microcontroller circuit checked with stored data. If the

Verification is positive, the user can enter the key on the keyboard that he wishes to receive. If the desired key is present, the space in which the affected key is inserted, is displayed and activated a solenoid that releases the relevant key mechanically. After the key or keys have been removed, stores the

Computer the data of the user, the removed key and time and Date. Furthermore, the information is made available to other users that the key in question is in use.

Upon return, the user puts the key (s) in any key slot. The computer detects this and saves the

Return the keys after the time and possibly the fact that the key was returned to another console.

Furthermore, the computer regularly monitors the key receptacle for the presence of the keys. As an outlook, it is further proposed to provide a number of such consoles at different locations, with the possibility, in particular for fleets or vehicle rentals, that a driver can return the keys at a location other than that at which he has taken them.

Documentation takes place through storage, remote data transmission or printouts.

A closure means (door) for closing a storage space in which the objects are to be accommodated and correspondingly different

Operating positions of such a closure means are not disclosed, since just the key receptacles are freely accessible according to the document and instead of a door to secure this key an electromechanical locking of each key is provided.

In DE 41 36 734 A1 under the title "Rental Machine" a device is described in which for use by use of a magnetic card, for example, if a positive result of verifying the legitimacy of the user is disclosed, an external door can be opened by the user The outside door of the device contains further elements of the device control panel and a grid-shaped arrangement of key holders and keys.As a further precautionary measure, the authorized user should then enter a PIN to enable a check

Enter a request for a key and, if the user for whom The use of this key is authorized and the corresponding key is available, an electromechanical lock is provided

Key receptacle released so that the key can be removed. A record of certain data on printers as well as the "removal of customer data for further processing in a personal computer" is provided.

As an outer housing in which the outer door is located, a safe of security level B should preferably be provided. Furthermore, a plug contact for a code key is provided on the outside. After checking the identity of the code key and positive legitimacy, opening the safe door is not possible. In the device, the grid wall is provided with a variety of recordings for keys, in the form of

corresponding lock cylinders. Furthermore, each lock cylinder is a

Assigned microswitch, can be detected by the whether a key is in the lock. Furthermore, a control circuit should be provided which detects the presence of the key.

From US 5,212,649 a device for storage, issue and tracking of objects, such as keys is known. This device has a number of compartments for the items, with the compartments on the outside of a rotating cylinder magazine. Each of the compartments is accessible on the outside of the cylinder. The apparatus described includes an outer housing having means for allowing movement of an access opening along the axis of the cylinder. At the same time located in the outer housing a slot which extends over the useful length of the cylinder. By rotating the cylinder and vertical access opening procedure, access to each compartment can be guaranteed. By access opening up or down the length of the slot in the service door, access can be completely disabled. Furthermore, control devices in the form of a computer for driving the cylinder and the device for operating the access opening and the identification or assignment of the individual compartments are described. Access to a single tray is given to the user after entering a code in the keyboard. Then the code is compared with corresponding data and if checked positively, the user is prompted for the desired

To identify the subject. Thereafter, the controller checks to see if the item is present. If such an article does not exist, the user will be informed. The same thing happens when the corresponding compartment is empty. Otherwise, the cylinder and opening will move so that the user can reach into the compartment. A storage of the transaction data takes place on one

appropriate medium and on a corresponding expression. A similar procedure applies to the return of items.

However, the system described there is essentially based on an accounting system, ie. In fact, there are no facilities that can determine whether a compartment is actually occupied, and whether the subject also contains the subject in it. Especially at the

Return, the usability of the system depends on the user providing accurate information about the item to be returned. From the device construction similar to that described in the document

Subject strongly to the video output system of US 5,042,686.

From US-A 5,042,686 a goods issue and return device especially for video cassettes is known, which has a drum-shaped goods magazine and a computer control that checks after reading a magnetic card or the like and entering a goods request via a keyboard first, if the customer entitled to receive the goods is (eg for videos with age restriction). The issue and return of a video will be credited to a customer account or debited a credit card accordingly. However, the customer does not get access to the magazine, a self-service is excluded. The customer can only remove the goods provided by a conveyor system at a dispensing slot. Inventory is determined by a warehouse management system based on the posted inflows and outflows. From EP 0 833 283 A2 a logging system is known comprising at least one storage space, eg in the form of a cabinet space or the like, for receiving objects, such as keys. Furthermore, at least one

Closing means for completing the at least one storage room

provided, e.g. a cabinet door, wherein the at least one closure means in a first operating position (closed position) closes the at least one storage space and in at least one further operating position (release position) allows access to the at least one storage space. Further, means for detecting an identification means are provided, e.g. a code lock or a magnetic card reader. A grid wall as means for receiving the objects is provided. The grid wall has a plurality of electrical sockets that serve as sensors for detecting the

Presence of the keys in the cabinet space serve. Each socket is located in a grid of the grid wall. Each grid is assigned a key number.

Each key is firmly connected to a plug as a key fob. The plug may e.g. be designed as a shorting plug. Each plug can be plugged with the attached key into the corresponding socket. By a example on the back of the grid wall

arranged detection circuit, the jacks are connected to an evaluation circuit. The detection circuit detects the assignment of the sockets with plugs. The detection circuit can be constructed as a conventional circuit for reading matrices.

To get to a key within the closed key cabinet, a magnetic card or the like must first be inserted into the card reader. The data of the magnetic card are read in and serve to identify the user of the magnetic card. The data is compared by the evaluation circuit with stored data to the

Access authorization of the user to check the magnetic card. If the check is positive, the lock is triggered by an electromagnetic lock and the cabinet door can be opened. As soon as a key is removed and a plug is pulled out of a socket, this is done by the Detection circuit transmitted to the evaluation. Will now the

Cabinet door closed again, which is e.g. can be detected by a limit switch, and have the locks the cabinet door secured in its closed position, the removal of the key is assigned to the user of the magnetic card and stored the assignment together with the time of removal. In the same way, the detection and detection takes place when the key is returned and the plug is plugged back into its socket. In the case of the system described here too, an assignment of the removal and / or return to the identification means takes place until another identification means is read in. As an advantage it is stated that this makes it possible to enable a time-saving removal of several objects at once, e.g. in the compilation of tours of a

Employee of a security service. An undisciplined approach to the system is avoided by making each user responsible for the whereabouts of all items taken after the user has opened the cupboard. It is therefore in the best interest of every user to ensure that the cabinet door is closed carefully after the intended removal. The invention is therefore based on the object to provide an improved cabinet system.

This object is achieved by a cabinet system having a plurality of separate storage spaces, each storage space being protected from unauthorized access by a closure means, and a controller for actuating the closure means to release authorized access to the storage space, at least two

Storage spaces are each formed by a drawer, wherein for each drawer, a drive means connected to the control for moving the drawer from a first retracted rest position in which the access to the storage space in the drawer is locked for a user, in a second extended access position in which a user can access the storage space and is provided back to the rest position. Devices known from the prior art, as described above with reference to specific disclosures, work reliably and satisfactorily, are in some cases simple in construction and some are relatively inexpensive to implement. For the operators of such devices is the

Adhesion issue satisfactorily solved by such known systems, since in most systems, the user for any loss or misuse, for. is held responsible by keys whose

Identification means last read prior to removal of the subject and for the access to the storage room has been released. It is therefore the responsibility of the user to prevent unauthorized access as long as access to the storage space is cleared and to provide a secure closure of the storage space before the user leaves.

The inventive design of a cabinet system and the components according to the invention, it is now possible to restrict the access to the storage space without the intervention of an authorized user, in particular temporally, as an opening and closing of the storage space, ie, the locking of the storage space or allowing access According to the invention must not be dependent on actions of the user. In particular, it is possible with the inventive system to deposit several components in separate storage rooms and after reading an identification and verification of the power, the

To release and block storage spaces for the components in a predetermined sequence.

The invention can be used particularly advantageously in areas in which it is not important, unique associations of

Responsibility to produce individuals, but regardless of liability issues above all to prevent abuse as such. A typical area of application is the issue and return of weapons and ammunition, be it public security or private

Security services. The cabinet system according to the invention makes it particularly easy to comply with the legal requirements for the separate storage of weapons and ammunition or even of vehicle documents and keys.

All relative location, direction, and information related to the cabinet system, module cabinet, or drawer, such as top, bottom, right, left, center, width, height , "Depth" refer to the corresponding part in the normal position of use described above. With "front" or "front" while the side is designated, which points to a user during normal use of the cabinet system, as a "back" is the side facing away from the user side.

The cabinet system according to the invention is particularly flexible adaptable to the needs of customers when multiple drawers are arranged in a module housing and the cabinet system comprises at least two module housing. It is particularly economical when the module housing is designed to accommodate two large or four small drawers or a multiple thereof. If several different sized components of a thing are to be stored separately, e.g. a gun and a magazine with ammunition, it is particularly advantageous if the module housing is designed to receive one of a large and two small drawers or a multiple thereof. The variability can be obtained particularly easily if the module housing has a front side with openings for the passage of one drawer each, and the width of the opening for a small drawer is less than half the width of the opening for a large drawer. The cabinet system is particularly versatile if the height of the openings for all drawers is approximately the same.

Particularly stable and reliable advantages of the invention can be obtained if a receptacle is provided in the module housing for each drawer and wherein each drawer receptacle each on their right and its left side has a rack or toothed rail for engaging in each case a drive pinion of the drawer. Particularly reliable and insensitive to manufacturing tolerances in both the module housing and the drawers is an inventive cabinet system, if ever recording for a drawer at least one of the racks or tooth rails is resiliently mounted so that it is pressed by the spring force to the drawer.

For many years of continuous operation with a high payload of the drawer or high weight by armor, it is expedient if the drawer is mounted longitudinally displaceable in the module housing by a respective telescopic extension on each of the two sides of the drawer.

In particular, for the storage of handguns and ammunition associated it has been found advantageous if the width of a small drawer no more than 5 inches (127 mm) and the width of a large drawer is more than 210 mm, especially if the clear height of

Storage space between 35 mm and 51 mm, preferably by 40 mm. This allows all the usual with minimum total space requirements

Service pistols of the public and private security services and to accommodate in separate storage room each a magazine and a spare magazine with ammunition.

Particularly preferred is a drawer according to the invention, if the

Drive means for moving the drawer mechanically from a first retracted rest position in which the access to the storage space in the drawer for a user is not possible, in a second extended access position in which a user can access the storage space, and back to the rest position , At least one electric drive motor and on both sides depending on the side contour of the drawer protruding

Has drive pinion, adapted to engage in the racks or

Rack rails of the module housing.

It is particularly advantageous if a single drive motor is provided in a small drawer, via a reduction gear, preferably in an integrated design as a gear motor, both drive pinion drives on the sides of the drawer, in particular, when a first of the drive pinion is connected to the drive motor and the second drive pinion with the first

Drive pinion is engaged.

Advantageously, for a large drawer, a separate drive motor, e.g. in the form of a geared motor, provided.

In order to prevent withdrawal of a drawer from the rest position by means of simple tools, it is expedient that the drawer is provided with an electromechanical lock relative to the module housing and / or the cabinet system for mechanically locking the drawer in the retracted rest position. Suitably, the electromechanical lock comprises a lifting magnet and a locking bolt which engages in a corresponding recess in the module housing or the cabinet system.

Advantageously, a drawer according to the invention in the front of the

Drawer an indicator light, in particular a multicolor LED lights, to display a removal request, a loading condition, a wrongly inserted item and / or the retraction state on.

A drawer according to the invention advantageously has a front side

A closure portion, a storage portion and a drive portion, wherein the closure portion includes a front plate, which is adapted to the passage opening in the module housing in the rest position of

Drawer essentially close, the storage section includes the storage space and the drive means is arranged in the drive section.

For improved security against breakage, it is advantageous if the front panel is designed to be multi-walled and has at least two locking bolts, which in the rest position of the drawer via an electromechanical drive are laterally extendable beyond the contour of the drawer to the front Lock the drawer in the module housing. The multi-wall design and the front-side locking over locking bolt creates the possibility of a construction of a cabinet system according to the invention, the

Requirements of safety level B according to VDMA 24992 (as of May 1995) and / or DIN / EN 1 143-1 resistance level 0 are met and thus safe storage of handguns in private and commercial areas is permitted.

If the storage space extends only over a part of the height of the drawer, the drawer can be made stiffer, that is, the

Drawer withstands higher loads without deforming. Particularly advantageous, the drawer can run as a cast part.

For a simple identification of the contents of a storage space in a drawer, means are advantageously provided for detecting one or more objects located in the storage space. It is particularly expedient if an RFID transmitter is provided in the drawer and an RFID antenna connected to the RFID transmitter is provided in the storage space. Many handguns are already equipped at the manufacturer with an RFID transponder, on the weapon type and serial number in the

Plain text or coded are stored. Magazines can also be easily equipped with a transponder, so that the weapon or its magazines can always be output with a weapon. In the same way, the assignment takes place when returning the weapon and magazines. For easier stored cases, especially for keys, but it is also expedient to provide the key tamper-proof with a coded plug and in the drawer in the storage room a socket for receiving a coded plug. For electronic devices, e.g. Notebooks, smartphones or digital radios, it may be useful if the

Drawer has a network connection and / or a charging power connection in the storage room. By connecting to a network, data on the device can be updated or read while the device is in the cabinet system, while at the same time it can be uniquely identified by reading hardware serial numbers from the device Electronics, such as the MAC address of the network driver or the serial number of the processor. A charging port allows charging the device battery while it is being stored in the drawer. To allow unauthorized access to the contents of a drawer as possible

To prevent effectively, a timer is provided for retracting a drawer from the access position to the rest position after a predetermined time in the access position. As a result, open drawers can be automatically closed after a predetermined period of inactivity, for example, if the user is distracted after legitimization without having himself removed the requested item.

In order to prevent filling of a cabinet system according to the invention with the above-described drawer with unwanted objects, the controller comprises one with the means for detecting one in the

Storage compartment located object connected test circuit that holds the extended drawer in the access position, as long as the

Means for detecting an object located in the storage space has not issued a signal on the detection of an allowable object in the storage space.

Advantageously, the control with limit switches for detecting the

Rest position and the access position of each drawer connected. To avoid accidents when using an inventive

Cabinet system is the control with a device for detecting the strength of the drive motor or the drive motors of a drawer

provided current, a comparison means for comparing the detected value of the current with a predetermined limit value, and connected to the comparison means reversing device for reversing the direction of rotation of the drive motor or the drive motors when exceeding the predetermined limit value provided. Especially with DC motors, the current consumption is a function of the load, ie the torque removed. A sudden increase in the recorded electrical current or exceeding a predetermined limit is a good indicator of the presence of obstacles that obstruct or block the drawer when entering or exiting. By reversing after detecting a predetermined threshold, the drawer reverses its direction of movement and can thereby release the obstacle, for example, if an object was not properly inserted into the drawer. Appropriately, an alarm device for triggering an alarm in successive reversing of the drive motor or the drive motors is provided as such

Operating state can indicate a manipulation attempt or a fault. If the drawer can not be closed, there is also the risk of unauthorized removal, so that alerting service or security personnel can minimize this risk.

An inventive cabinet system can be used particularly versatile and economical if one or more module housing are provided with one or more closed by a door storage rooms. With this configuration, already known uses and the use of the arrangement according to the invention with drawers can be combined particularly needs-based, and the purchase of several differently designed cabinet systems can be omitted.

The invention will be described below with reference to exemplary embodiments illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Show it:

Fig. 1 shows a first embodiment of an inventive

Cabinet system, generally designated 1, in perspective view. Such a cabinet system comprises a body 2, which is usually made of sheet steel. Depending on the desired degree of security, the body 2 can be made of different material qualities and thicknesses, possibly even multi-walled. In a base 3 of the cabinet system 1 is at least the power supply, including the emergency power supply for the electrical components of the cabinet system including the module for the controller 4 of the cabinet system 1 housed, depending on the level of expansion also more

Electronic and communication and / or alarm components. In the embodiment shown, the socket is one with special alarm-secured

Security locks 5 closed lid 6 accessible by authorized service personnel if necessary. The same applies here for three shaft apertures 7. The cabinet system shown here comprises two columns of module housings 8, which are fixedly mounted in the body, here ten module housing 8 in the right column and eight module housing 8 in the left column. Each of the invention

Module housing 8 contains two large drawers 9. In the right column there are still two modules with storage rooms, which are closed secured by a door 10 as a closure means against unauthorized access.

In the left column, the controller 4 is arranged with display and operating elements for the user, as described in more detail with reference to FIG. 2. After removal of the shaft panels 7 by an authorized service force, a mechanical emergency release for the drawers 9, 1 or doors 10 is accessible if such emergency release at the desired

Security level is provided.

FIG. 2 shows a further embodiment of a device according to the invention

Cabinet system 1 shown. In this embodiment, this includes

Cabinet system deviating from the equipment of the cabinet system in Fig. 1 each have a module housing 8 with four small drawers 1 1 and a

Module housing 8 with two large drawers 9. As can be seen particularly well in Fig. 2, the control module 4 includes various display and controls for the user. These include a card reader 12 for reading in an identification means for identifying the user. Furthermore, a keyboard 13 is provided over which e.g. various menu items offered on the display 14 can be selected or for entering a personal security code, e.g. for the removal of weapons. Via the display 14, the user can also be given further information or instructions. In each case a storage space 15 is formed in a drawer 9, 1 1 behind a front panel 16 or by a compartment behind a door 10. In the figures 1 and 2, the drawers 9, 1 1 are shown in a first retracted rest position in the access to the storage space 15 in the drawer 9, 1 1 is blocked for a user. Has a user by reading a

Identification means identified and is recognized as authorized, he can select according to the provisions implemented in the cabinet system 1 an object to be removed and must confirm his selection, if necessary by entering his personal security code. Via the control 4, the closing means of the corresponding compartment, e.g. in the case of a door 10 an electromechanical door lock, operated and released access to the storage room 15. According to the invention, this is done by the control of a drive means connected to the control 4 for

mechanically moving the drawer 9, 11 from the retracted rest position, into a second extended access position of the drawer 9, 11, as shown in FIG. 18 is shown. The user can now remove the stored item and the controller 4 leaves the drawer 9, 1 1 drive by the drive means back to the rest position. A particular advantage of the arrangement according to the invention is that without significant input from the user, the output of several

belonging objects can be carried out automatically from separate storage rooms. This is of particular advantage in applications where unauthorized access to the items in the storage compartments 15 must be prevented as much as possible, e.g. at handguns.

If the user has identified himself and legitimizes his personal security code, for example, first the weapon 17 is issued. Conveniently, this is indicated by a display in the form of a multicolor LED 18 in that e.g. the LED 18 in the front panel 16 of the corresponding large drawer 9 flashes green and thus the imminent extension of this

Drawer 9 displays. If the drawer 9 is extended, the user can remove the weapon 17. Has he removed the weapon 17, the drawer 9 moves back to the rest position. The LED expediently flashes in yellow in order to warn against reaching into the approaching drawer 9. Subsequently, a small drawer 1 1 is also extended with notice by a green flashing LED 18 to offer the user access to one or more magazines with ammunition to the removed weapon 17. After removal there is also the return of the drawer 9 in the rest position. The accesses and withdrawals are made in a known manner locally and / or over

Remote data transmission centrally logged.

A time control is advantageously provided for retracting a drawer 9 from the access position to the rest position after a predetermined time in the access position. As a result, open drawers 9, 1 1 can be closed automatically after a predetermined time of inactivity, for example, if the user is deliberately or unintentionally distracted after legitimization without having taken even the requested item. By Prescribing a reasonable short time can reduce the risk that an unauthorized person makes use of the distraction of an authorized user and, for example, steals a pistol 17 from an open drawer 11.

When returning an item, the process proceeds in the same way. If there are several empty drawers 9, 11 of suitable size available, the selection of the offered drawer 9, 11 expediently occurs randomly, so that the exact content of each storage space 15 is not from the outside

predictable. This reduces the incentive to gain access to a particular item through violent break-up attempts.

If the specified article is not deposited in the provided drawer 9, 11, the drawer 9, 11 remains in the access position,

expediently with red LED 18, until the insertion of the correct object is detected. This ensures maximum availability of the cabinet system, in which e.g. the occupancy of a large drawer 9 is prevented with a small object that fits into a small drawer 11. As in the same space more small than large drawers 9, 11

can be provided, so can improve the space utilization and thus the specific investment.

Figures 3 and 6 show a module housing 8 with four small drawers 11. In Fig. 4, a module housing with two large drawers 1 is shown. In Fig. 17, the front view of a module housing 8 with two small drawers 1 and a large drawer 9 is shown. Such a combination may be particularly useful in public or private security services for the separate storage of the weapon 17 in the large drawer 9,

Magazines with ammunition and e.g. Radio in the small drawers 1.

For good stability and resistance to breakage has an inventive

Module housing 8 in its front 19 openings 20 for the passage of each drawer 9, 11 on. For an ideal combinability of the different ones

Embodiments of a module housing 8 according to the invention in one Cabinet system 1, it is expedient that the width of the opening 20 for a small drawer 1 1 is less than half the width of the opening 20 for a large drawer 9, in particular, if the height of the openings 20 for all drawers 9, 1 1 is approximately the same size. As a result, a freely usable grid in a body 2 of the cabinet system 1 can be obtained.

In particular, for the storage of handguns and associated ammunition, it has been found to be advantageous if the width of a small drawer 1 1 not more than 5 inches (127 mm), preferably about 100 to 1 10 mm, and the width of a large drawer 9 more than 210 mm.

In particular, when the clear height of the storage space 15 is between 35 mm and 51 mm, preferably 40 mm, can be with minimum total space required all common service pistols 17 of the public and private security services and to separate storage space 15 each a magazine and a spare magazine with ammunition accommodate, such as can be seen in Fig. 15 and Fig. 18.

As can be clearly seen in particular in the sectional illustration in FIG. 12, each drawer 9, 1 1 comprises a main body 21. The main body 21 is advantageously produced as a cast part and forms a cup-shaped storage space 15 with front wall 22, side walls 23, rear wall 24 and bottom 25. Particularly suitable materials for the main body 21 are, for example matching aluminum and brass alloys. These offer a dimensionally accurate casting and are corrosion resistant under normal building conditions. Also suitable are thermosets reinforced with glass, aramid or carbon fibers. The materials mentioned offer comparatively low weight with very good mechanical strength. By cast construction, the front wall 22 can be formed over a part of its height as a double wall, without too

To lead material accumulation, and thus the resistance of the

Improve drawer 9, 1 1 against attacks with striking tools on the front wall. Suitably, the storage space 15 extends only over part of the height of the drawer 9, 1 1. This protrude front, side. And rear wall of the main body 21 on both sides of the bottom 25 upwards and below beyond this, which gives the main body 21 and thus the drawer 9, 1 1 overall significantly increased rigidity and resilience.

The front wall 22 of the main body 21 is part of a front side

Closure section of a drawer 9, 1 according to the invention

The main body 21 further includes a storage portion with the

Storage space 15 and a drive portion 26 for receiving the drive means of the drawer 9, 1 1. The front wall 22 of the body with a front plate 16 mounted thereon in the form of e.g. brushed

Stainless steel sheets are sized to a corresponding one

Passage opening 20 in the module housing 8 in the rest position of the drawer 9, 1 1 to close substantially. Not only is the front panel 16 decorative and easy to clean, it also increases the resistance of the front panel to mechanical attack using chemical embrittlement agents, e.g. by so-called cold spray. In one embodiment, not shown, front panel 16 and front wall 22 are multi-walled formed so that at least two locking bolts can be provided, which in the

Resting position of the drawer via an electromechanical drive laterally beyond the contour of the drawer are also extendable for front locking the drawer 9, 11 in the module housing 8. The multi-wall design and the front-side locking over locking bolts create the possibility of building a cabinet system 1 according to the invention, the Requirements of safety level B according to VDMA 24992 (as of May 1995) and / or DIN / EN 1 143-1 resistance level 0 and thus according to the legal definition of a safe storage of handguns in private and commercial areas allowed.

In the drive section 26 of the drawer 9, 11 is as a drive means for

mechanically moving the drawer 9, 1 1 from the first retracted

Rest position, in which the access to the storage space in the drawer is locked for a user, in the second extended access position in which a user can access the storage space 15, and back to the rest position at a small drawer 11 a geared motor 27 attached, as can be seen in Fig. 10, and in a large drawer 9 two Gear motors 27 attached, as shown in Figures 1 1 and 16 can be seen well. Such a gear motor 27 advantageously comprises an electrical

DC motor. The controller 4 advantageously comprises a device for detecting the strength of the current received by the drive motor 27 or the drive motors 27 of a drawer 9, 11, a comparison device for comparing the detected value of the current with a predetermined limit value, and one connected to the comparison device

Reversing device for reversing the direction of rotation of the drive motor 27 or the drive motors 27 when the predetermined limit value is exceeded. Especially with DC motors, the current consumption is a function of the load, ie the torque removed. A sudden increase of the absorbed electric current or the exceeding of a

given limit is a good indicator of the presence of obstacles that hinder or block the drawer when retracting or retracting. By reversing after detecting a predetermined threshold, the drawer 9, 1 1 reverses its direction of movement and thereby can release the obstacle, e.g. if the item 17 is not placed correctly in the drawer 9, 1 1. Appropriately, an alarm device for triggering an alarm in successive reversing of the drive motor 27 and the drive motors 27 is provided, since such an operating state to a

Tampering attempt or a fault may indicate. If the drawer 9, 1 1 can not be closed, there is also the risk of unauthorized removal of an object 17, so that an alarm by service or security personnel can minimize this risk.

Each of the geared motors 27 is connected to a drive pinion 29 whose toothing projects laterally beyond the contour of the drawer 9, 11. In the large drawer 9, a geared motor 27 is provided with connected drive pinion 29 on each side of the drawer, in a small drawer 1 1, it is expedient for reasons of space to provide only a geared motor 27, which is also connected to a drive pinion 29. A second drive pinion 29 on the opposite side of the small drawer 1 1 is mounted there rotatably mounted and arranged so that its teeth mesh with those of the geared motor 27 driven by the pinion gear 29, thereby becomes the second Drive pinion 29 is also driven at the same speed as the first drive pinion, as shown in Figures 3, 7, 0, 3, 14 and in particular the enlarged view in Fig. 8 well visible. All drive pinion 29 have the same diameter and numbers of teeth. In the large drawer 9, the geared motors 27, the drive pinion 29 must drive in opposite directions to allow retraction and extension of the drawer 9, in the small drawer 11 results in the reversal of direction by the engagement of the two pinion 29th

The main body 21 of a drawer 9, 11 has in both sides a groove 30 for receiving and fixing a telescopic extension 31, via which a drawer according to the invention 9, 11 is movably mounted in the module housing 8, as can be seen well in Fig. 5 ,

For the accommodation of two small drawers 11 side by side in a module housing 8, an intermediate rail 32 is provided in each case for fastening one of the telescopic extensions 31 (FIG. 8). Each drawer receptacle in the module housing 8 has one on each of its right and left sides

This is quite good to see in Fig. 4, where for this purpose parts of the drive means are not shown, but even better in the enlarged view in FIG 9 to see. To be a reliable

Transport of the drawer 9, 11 between the rest position and the

Ensuring access position permanently, each recording for a drawer 9, 11 at least one of the racks or toothed rails 33 is resiliently mounted so that it is pressed by the spring force to the drawer 9, 11.

The controller 4 is connected to limit switches 28 for detecting the rest position and the access position of each drawer 9, 11 (see Figures 8, 11, 15, 16).

A printed circuit board 34 with parts of the control for each drawer 9, 11 can be provided laterally in the module housing 8. In the drive section 26 of the drawer 9, 11 as a closure means further comprises a solenoid 35 is provided with a locking pin 36 for mechanically locking the drawer 9, 11 in its retracted rest position. Of the

Solenoid is in the retracted position of rest of the drawer 9, 11th

advanced and locked so the drawer relative to the module housing 8 and / or the cabinet system 1 and is before driving the

Gear motors 27 is actuated to withdraw the locking pin 36 and thus to unlock the drawer 9, 11. In the drawer are facilities for detecting a in the
