Description
La présente invention concerne une boîte perfectionnée et son procédé de fonctionnement. Plus particulièrement, l'invention se rapporte à une serrure sécurisée pour boîtes à lettres et boîtes à colis. Dans la présente description et dans les revendications auxquelles elle donne lieu, on entend par «boîte» aussi bien les boîtes à lettres proprement dites que les boîtes à colis.The present invention relates to an improved box and its method of operation. More particularly, the invention relates to a secure lock for letter boxes and parcel boxes. In the present description and in the claims to which it gives rise, the term “box” is understood to mean both letter boxes proper and parcel boxes.
Dans le domaine de la serrurerie, la sécurité est un critère de choix primordial pour l'utilisateur. Dans l'état de la technique, on connaît notamment l'enseignement de la demande
Cependant, cette serrure nécessite l'intervention physique du propriétaire qui doit la réarmer entre chaque réception de colis. Cette opération humaine indispensable peut être omise ou mal réalisée par le propriétaire, ce qui bloque la boîte jusqu'à ce que ledit propriétaire se rende compte de son erreur.
C'est particulièrement dommage pour les propriétaires de boîte à lettres tels que les entreprises qui reçoivent souvent des colis.However, this lock requires the physical intervention of the owner who must reset it between each receipt of packages. This essential human operation can be omitted or carried out poorly by the owner, which blocks the box until the said owner realizes his mistake.
This is particularly unfortunate for letterbox owners such as businesses that often receive packages.
