Definitions

  • the problem which the invention aims to solve is to propose a case of this kind whose automatic closing / opening means are of simple constitution and particularly suitable for locking means constituted by an elongated rod comprising several locking zones distributed over its length.
  • the movable locking means comprise a rod extending along their path and carrying along a longitudinal edge, a notch, and the retaining means and the second return means s 'extend perpendicularly to the rod so as to bear on said longitudinal edge thereof and have an end capable of bearing on the door, these means being received in the notch when the door is open to retain the rod, and being moved away from the notch when the door is closed and presses on said end to release the rod.
  • the collective mailbox shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 comprises a parallelepipedic box 1, one face of which has an opening 2.
  • the box is subdivided into several compartments forming individual mailboxes.
  • a collective door 3 closes the opening 2 and is locked by means of a collective lock 4, this collective door being equipped with as many individual juxtaposed doors 5 as there are individual mailboxes.
  • Each individual door 5 is equipped with an individual lock 6.
  • the collective lock 4 receives a pinion 7 which it drives in rotation, the latter being arranged to cooperate with a rack 10 mounted to slide along an edge of the housing 1 facing the collective door 3 , more precisely on a wing 11 of this edge situated between the collective lock 4 and the collective door 3 and extending perpendicular to the collective door 3.
  • Each oblong cutout 17 is extended by a cutout 18 located on an inner face 43 of the collective door 3.
  • the rack 10 In FIG. 6, the rack 10 is in a low position in which the fingers 14 can be released from the collective door 3, while in FIGS. 3 to 5 the rack is in a high position in which the fingers 14 are trapped in the edge 16 of the collective door 3, preventing thus the latter to be open.
  • the rod 12 located above the collective lock 4 has, on an edge 20 facing the inside of the collective mailbox, a notch 21 extending over a certain distance along the latter.
  • the rod 12 carries a bracket 22 facing the collective lock 4, while the wing 11 of the edge of the housing carries, at an upper end, a bracket 23 turned in the opposite direction to the bracket 22.
  • Each bracket 22, 23 has a general shape of C.
  • a helical spring 24 extends parallel to the rod 12 and comprises, at two ends, two hooks 25, 26 hooking respectively on the brackets 22, 23. Under these conditions, the helical spring 24 tends to bring the rack 10 and the rods 12, 13 to a high position in which these ensure the locking of the collective door 3.
  • a wing 27 of the edge of the housing, facing the wing 11 but disposed opposite to the collective lock 4, carries two brackets 31 having a wing 33, 34 extending towards the rods 12, 13 respectively.
  • the wings 33, 34 of the brackets are approximately aligned with the longitudinal edge of the two rods 12, 13 located the innermost of the mailbox.
  • Each leaf spring 35, 36 respectively has an end 41, 42 of reduced width by which it passes through the wing 11 of the edge of the housing. This spring end 41, 42 extends sufficiently beyond the wing 11 of the edge of the housing to be able to bear on the internal face 43 of the collective door 3.
  • Each leaf spring 35, 36 is curved so as to define a concave shape facing the outside of the mailbox and it is arranged so that its end 41, 42 is supported on an edge of the respective rod 12, 13 located the most inside the mailbox, when the collective door 3 is open (see Figure 6). Furthermore, the position of the notch 21 along the upper rod 12 is such that, when this rod occupies a low position corresponding to the opening of the collective door 3, the notch 21 is located exactly opposite the end 41 of the neighboring leaf spring 35. It follows that, in this position, the end 41 of the leaf spring 35 falls into the notch 21 and thus locks the assembly constituted by the two rods 12, 13 and the rack 10 in a low position.
  • the collective mailbox is initially in a closed position corresponding to FIGS. 1 and 3 to 5.
  • the postal delivery agent inserts a key 44 into the collective lock 4 and turns it. 'a quarter turn to the right.
  • the pinion 7 integral with this lock then rotates and drives the rack 10 and the two rods 12, 13 towards a low position, against the effect of the helical spring 24.
  • the arrival in position low produces two simultaneous effects: the first is that the end 41 of the leaf spring 35 falls into the notch 21 of the rod 12 and locks the rack and the two rods in this low position, while the second effect is that the collective door 3, thus unlocked and also subjected to the action of the two leaf springs 35, 36, opens automatically.
  • the rack and pinion system could be replaced by a rotary lever system mounted on the collective lock and having an oblong hole in which extends a finger carried by a rod connecting the rods.
  • the fingers 14 are fixed and arranged on the collective door, while the rods are equipped with oblong cutouts forming strikes.
