Abstract

A self-service mail-accepting machine is disclosed for accepting and storing various kinds of mail pieces: a mixed batch of letters and flats which can be processed with a high-speed and a high-degree of automation; a large or heavy individual mail piece which can be processed one at a time; and a mail container filled with franked mail pieces. The machine comprises a feeding unit, a scanning unit, a weighing unit, an indicia printing unit, a diverting unit and a storing unit for high-speed batch mail acceptance. The machine further comprises an individual mail acceptance platform for large-sized or heavy mail pieces including small parcels and further comprises a multitude of auto-locking drawers for accepting mail containers filled with franked mail items. The feeding unit is characterized by a constant-force pressuring mechanism to feed a mixed input of mails and flats with various sizes and weights. The image of a mail piece captured by the scanning unit is used to confirm the correct orientation of the mail piece, and to measure the lengths of long side and short side of the mail piece, and to recognize barcode attached on the mail piece and to detect a double feed. If incoming mail piece orientation is not correct for printing indicia or an error is occurred during weighing, capturing image and measuring size or a double feed is detected, the mail piece is discharged out for retrying without printing indicia. The mail piece processed successfully is stored to one of the several mail storages according to a predetermined criterion such as registered mail or ordinary mail.
