Device, assembly, and method for inputting and/or outputting one or a plurality of security documents
A device for at least one of inputting or outputting one or a plurality of security documents includes a security container for keeping available the documents, a first input/output interface and a second input/output interface, and a head unit which is mounted so as to be displaceable to a plurality of positions relative to the container. The head unit is configured to, in a first position of the plurality of positions, by means of the first input/output interface, transfer one or a plurality of security documents into or out of the device, in a second position of the plurality of positions, by means of the second input/output interface, transfer one or a plurality of security documents into or out of the device, and, in a third position of the plurality of positions, transfer one or a plurality of security documents between the head unit and the container.
1. A device for at least one of inputting or outputting one or a plurality of security documents, the device comprising:
a security container for keeping available one or a plurality of security documents;
a first input/output interface and a second input/output interface;
a head unit which is mounted so as to be displaceable to a plurality of positions relative to the security container;
wherein the head unit is moveable between
in a first position of the plurality of positions, by means of the first input/output interface, transfer one or a plurality of security documents into or out of the device;
in a second position of the plurality of positions, by means of the second input/output interface, transfer one or a plurality of security documents into or out of the device; and
in a third position of the plurality of positions, transfer one or a plurality of security documents between the head unit and the security container.
2. The device of claim 1 ,
wherein the head unit comprises the first input/output interface, or the first input/output interface is at least disposed so as to be locationally fixed in relation to the head unit.
3. The device of claim 1 ,
wherein the head unit and the second input/output interface are disposed so as to be mutually spaced apart.
4. The device of claim 1 , further comprising:
a control device configured to displace the head unit to the second position when the control device receives a transfer request that is assigned to the second input/output interface.
5. The device of claim 1 , further comprising:
a transport device;
wherein the head unit is further configured to
in the first position transfer the security document or documents between the first input/output interface and the transport device;
in the second position transfer the security document or documents between the second input/output interface and the transport device; and
in the third position transfer the security document or documents between the security container and the transport device.
6. The device of claim 1 ,
wherein the first input/output interface is disposed between the second input/output interface and the security container when the head unit is in the second position.
7. The device of claim 1 ,
wherein the first input/output interface and the second input/output interface are configured to transfer the security document or documents among one another when the head unit is in the second position.
8. The device of claim 1 ,
wherein the second input/output interface comprises a storage container and a manipulator;
wherein the manipulator is configured to transfer the security document or documents between the storage container and the head unit when the head unit is in the second position.
9. The device of claim 8 ,
wherein the second input/output interface further comprises a container transport device configured to transport the storage container to the manipulator and away from the latter.
10. The device of claim 1 ,
wherein the first input/output interface comprises a security document input module.
11. The device of claim 1 ,
wherein the second input/output interface is disposed at least one of above or so as to be locationally fixed in relation to the security container.
12. The device of claim 1 ,
wherein the first position and the second position differ from one another.
13. The device of claim 1 ,
wherein the head unit comprises at least one of the following:
a display device;
an input device; and
a card reader.
14. An assembly, comprising:
a wall element which comprises a passage opening;
a device, comprising:
a security container for keeping available one or a plurality of security documents;
a first input/output interface and a second input/output interface;
a head unit which is mounted so as to be displaceable to a plurality of positions relative to the security container;
wherein the head unit is moveable between
in a first position of the plurality of positions, by means of the first input/output interface, transfer one or a plurality of security documents into or out of the device;
in a second position of the plurality of positions, by means of the second input/output interface, transfer one or a plurality of security documents into or out of the device; and
in a third position of the plurality of positions, transfer one or a plurality of security documents between the head unit and the security container;
wherein the head unit in the first position extends into the passage opening or through the latter.
15. A method for inputting and/or outputting one or a plurality of security documents by a device which comprises a security container, a head unit, a first input/output interface and a second input/output interface; the method comprising:
transferring one or a plurality of security documents between the security container and at least one input/output interface of the two input/output interfaces; and
displacing the head unit between at least two positions, of which:
in a first position, by means of the first input/output interface, the security document or documents are transferred into or out of the device;
in a second position, by means of the second input/output interface, the security document or documents are transferred into or out of the device; and
in a third position, the security document or documents are transferred between the head unit and the security container.
