Definitions
- Locker arrangement for storing and depositing items
- the invention relates to a locker arrangement for storing and depositing objects, comprising a plurality of cuboid compartments, each of which can be locked by a lockable flap, and an operating and control unit with an operating panel and a data processing unit for managing the compartments and for controlling locking devices. which are assigned to the respective flaps.
- a locker arrangement of the type mentioned above is known for example from DE 197 16 138 A.
- Such a locker arrangement is primarily intended for the sale of goods which the customer can order by telephone, for example.
- the goods are then deposited by the delivery company in the locker arrangement, where the customer can pick them up.
- the customer For this purpose, he must identify himself at the operating and control unit and / or pay the goods in cash in a manner known per se. If it is ensured in this way that the delivery company receives its money and only the authorized customer has access to the compartment with the ordered goods, the locking device of the compartment in question is activated so that the customer can remove the goods.
- the invention has for its object to provide a locker arrangement of the type mentioned, which allows simple means to cool only the goods that need it.
- This object is achieved in that mobile electrical coolers are assigned to the compartments and that each compartment has an electrical connection connected to a power supply for supplying a cooler insertable into the compartment.
- each compartment can thus be used optionally for receiving goods to be cooled or not to be cooled. If easily perishable foods are to be kept in the compartment, they are packed in the cool box. This is inserted into the compartment and connected to the connector so that the goods are cooled in the required manner. Different cooling levels can be set so that normal foods, but also frozen foods, can be stored at least for a limited time. If this is not necessary, the goods are placed directly in the compartment. This significantly reduces the cooling effort for the locker arrangement compared to the known solution.
- the electrical connection in the respective compartment is a plug part that can be connected to a complementary mating plug part on the cool box, so that the electrical connection is extremely simple.
- the plug part can be arranged on the compartment rear wall, so that the plug connection can be made or interrupted by pushing the cooling box in or out.
- a locking device which can be controlled by means of the data processing unit is preferably provided in each compartment for locking a cooling box inserted into the respective compartment.
- this offers the possibility that the customer can take the cool box with him if, for example, he has previously paid a deposit fee for the cool box with his identification and payment of the purchase price. If he does not need the cool box, he can simply remove the goods from the cool box.
- the plug part in the respective compartment is a plug socket used in motor vehicle interiors and the power supply delivers a voltage corresponding to the usual motor vehicle on-board voltage.
- the plug part in the respective compartment is a plug socket used in motor vehicle interiors and the power supply delivers a voltage corresponding to the usual motor vehicle on-board voltage.
- the mating connector on the cool box is expediently connected to the cooling unit of the cool box via a connecting cable.
- a connecting cable In order to get the possibility to connect the cooler to the electrical connection of the compartment simply by pushing it into the compartment, it is useful if the cooler has a compartment for the connection cable and the mating connector on onedeboxau touchwa ⁇ d is lockable.
- the mating connector is locked on the cool box outer wall. If the customer takes the cool box with him and wants to connect it to the on-board socket in his car, he releases the lock and can use the length of the connecting cable.
- a switch which can be controlled by the operating and control unit is preferably arranged in the line between the power supply of the locker arrangement or the respective compartment and the plug part of the respective compartment. As soon as the customer has removed the goods from the cool box remaining in the compartment, this can be switched off or operated with reduced cooling capacity in order to save energy.
- Figure 1 is a schematic front view of a locker arrangement according to the invention.
- Figure 2 is a schematic, partially sectioned side view of an individual locker with a cool box arranged therein.
- the locker arrangement shown in FIG. 1, generally designated 10, contains a multiplicity of cuboid compartments 12, each of which can be closed by a door or flap 14, and an operating and control unit 16.
- the lockers 12 can be part of a single shelf or also each of a box can be formed, the entire arrangement is formed by stacking these boxes.
- the operating and control unit 16 has a control panel 18 with a display device 20, a keyboard 22, an input slot 24 for credit and / or identification cards, input slots 26 and 28 for coin money or banknotes and a money return compartment 30.
- a data processing device 32 and a power supply 34 are also indicated by dashed lines.
- Figure 2 shows a single compartment with an electric cool box 36 arranged therein.
- This consists of a box-shaped housing 38 which contains in its lower part a space 40 for a cooling unit, not shown, and a receiving compartment 42 for a connecting cable 44 and on the front side by a Door 46 is closed.
- the connecting cable 44 connects the cooling unit to a plug 48 which is inserted into a socket 52 arranged on the rear wall 50 of the compartment 12.
- This plug socket is a socket, such as is installed for example for cigarette lighters in motor vehicles.
- Other electrical devices that can be operated with the on-board voltage of a motor vehicle, usually 12 or 24 volts, can also be connected to these plug sockets for cigarette lighters.
- the socket 52 is connected to the power supply 34 via a line 54 and a switch 56, which in turn is connected via a control line 58 to the data processing unit 32 and can be controlled by it, but at least opened and closed.
- a suitable locking device is arranged, for example, on the rear wall 50 of the compartment and, in the exemplary embodiment shown, comprises a latching hook 60 which engages in an eyelet 62 arranged on the rear wall of the cool box 36 and by an adjusting mechanism (not shown in more detail), for example an electromagnet 64, in a Release position can be moved.
- This adjusting mechanism 64 is over a control line 66 in connection with the data processing unit 32, which further also controls a locking mechanism 70 for locking the flap 14 of the compartment 12 via a control line 68.
- blower 72 In the locker arrangement there is also a blower 72, the suction opening of which is connected to the compartments 12 via lines (not shown) in order to vent them. Ventilation openings 74 are formed in the flaps 14, through which ambient air can enter the compartments 12.
- the goods to be cooled are located in the cool box 36, which in turn is arranged in the compartment 12, as shown in FIG. 2.
- the cooling unit is connected to the power supply 34 via the plug connection 48, 52 and the line 54.
- the switch 56 is closed so that the cooling unit can work.
- the cool box is locked in the compartment 12 via the locking device 60, 62, 64.
- the customer If the customer has pre-ordered the goods, he must first identify himself on the operating unit 16 so that another customer does not take the pre-ordered goods with him. If the price for the goods has not already been debited from a customer account, this is done during identification or the customer pays the purchase price in cash using the facility 26, 28, 30. After the customer has been identified and it has been ensured that the supplier receives or has received its purchase price, the customer is shown the compartment by means of the display device and the locking device 70 is opened so that the customer can remove the goods from the cool box 36 after opening the flap 14 and the cool box door 46. If the customer wishes to take the cool box with him in order to keep the goods cool even during transport, he must inform the control unit 16 of this via the control panel.
- the data processing unit 32 controls the locking mechanism 64 and thus the hook 60 into a release position so that the cool box 36 can be removed from the compartment 12, at the same time the plug connection 48 , 52 is interrupted.
- the customer closes the flap 14 of the compartment 12, detaches the plug 48, which is held on the rear wall of the cool box 36, for example with the aid of a bayonet catch, from the cool box and pulls the connecting cable 44 out of the receiving compartment 42, so that he can easily insert the plug 48 into the socket of the cigarette lighter in his motor vehicle.
- the data processing unit 32 controls the switch 56 in such a way that the line 54 to the cool box 36 is interrupted and the cooling unit is switched off.
