The present invention is a collecting box which enables objects to be introduced into the same, but removing the deposits without opening the Main door prevented.

In the accompanying drawing, FIG. 1 shows a safety collecting box in longitudinal section, FIG. 2 in cross section, Fig. 3 shows a Grundrifs of the collecting box with the sliding box extended and insert half-pulled out, and Fig. 4 shows a mailbox of our construction for use when using our safety collection box.

The safety collecting box consists of a box A with the attachment B of suitable dimensions. The attachment B is perfectly fixed to the box or reservoir A , so that these two parts form a whole; the front wall α b is best made in one piece. The top B has no bottom, and the collecting box A is provided with an opening so that the interiors of the two parts AB communicate completely. In the attachment B , the sliding box C can be moved in two guide strips c attached to the box A. In the pushed-in state, the rear wall c ^{1 of} the sliding case also forms the rear wall of the attachment B and the front wall f ² rests against the front wall b . The sliding box C can only be pulled out of the attachment B so far that its front wall c ^{2 forms} the rear wall of the attachment. This position is indicated by dotted lines in FIG.

The sliding box C has a bottom d rotatable about a hinge d ¹ , which is.

When the box C is completely pushed into the attachment B , it opens downwards so that the contents of the sliding box fall into the collecting box A. As soon as you begin to pull the sliding box out again, the bottom flap d is automatically closed again.

The sliding box C can only be opened laterally or at the top when it is completely pulled out, FIG. 3, so that the coupons, notes of money or other objects to be collected can be brought into it.

If the objects have entered the collecting box A by pushing the sliding box C , they can only be removed from it if a locked door in the collecting box A , to which only the authorized representative or the senior official has the key, is opened.

Our safety collection boxes are ideal to collect letters from the mailboxes.

So far, the inserts of the mailboxes have been excavated at certain times and by others replaced; this is not necessary when using our invention.

One only needs to manufacture the cart collecting the letters in the manner of our security collection boxes and to insert an insert of the type shown in FIG. 4 into each mailbox. This use. D, which is shown standing upside down, has a trap door e which is rotatable about hinge e ¹ , the bracket e ^{1 of} which snaps into the lock / in the closed state.

The key f ¹ to this lock / is firmly attached to the front wall b of the attachment B.

brought or rotatably mounted, but can not be removed from the same.

When the letters are collected, the insert D is pushed into the pulled-out sliding box C and the latter is then inserted into part B. ' Here, the key f ¹ penetrates through a slot suitably made in the front wall c ^{2 of} the sliding case into the lock /, triggers the bracket e ² , the trap door e opens and the contents of the insert D fall into the collecting box A. When the In sliding box C , the doors d and e close automatically and the emptied insert D can be used again to collect letters.

Instead of having to open and empty a large number of inserts at the post office, as has been the case up to now, only the door of collecting box A needs to be opened and the contents of the latter removed.
