A cashier's safe for banks is disclosed in which money cassettes in vertical columns are held in storage spaces on rotatable racks disposed on opposite sides of the vertical traveling path of a cassette carrier. Each cassette selectively can be brought up to a money receiving and withdrawal point at the top of the safe and returned to its proper storage space by the cassette carrier. Cassettes containing larger sums of money are moved more slowly to the withdrawal point than those containing lesser sums to reduce the probability of robbery. Storage units in the safe for bank notes include bank note storage belts wound on storage drums. The storage units are located on opposite sides of a vertical covered belt conveyor for bank notes which transfer them from the storage units to a bank note receiving and withdrawal point at the top of the safe. Bank note switches associated with the storage units are provided along the covered belt conveyor. The cashier's safe may be automated and a microprocessor may be employed to control the receiving or issuance of money in specified denominations and amounts.
Cashier's safe, characterized in that it comprises a bank note storage means (5) wherein storage units (4) are located at least on one side of the conveying path of a bank note conveyor (30, 31), and a bank note receiving and withdrawing point (7) is provided at one end of this conveying path;
