Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a door frame for a door comprising a container device, wherein the container device is suitable for receiving deliveries, a container device, a standardized box to transport goods/deliveries and the method of using a container device to receive deliveries.
  • the present invention relates to a container device which can be set into a door frame while the door is opened so that the house or apartment is locked while the container device is secured in the door frame.
  • the container device acts as a door so that parcel services can utilize the container device as a secure space to make deliveries while the recipient is not present.
  • the classic or internet based mail order business lets a customer choose products/goods from a catalogue or a website. Once the goods have been ordered they are packaged and shipped to the customer, usually by employing parcel services which will transport the order to the customer and hand it over to the customer at his or her residence or place of work, as the case may be.
  • the following text will refer to an apartment, or a flat, or a home or a house, but does not intend this to exclude office space or other buildings as the intended place of delivery.
  • the parcel services involved have developed strategies to compensate for the fact that the customer is not always present at the time of delivery.
  • the strategies employed are of a wide variety and range from leaving the parcel at a pre-agreed drop-off spot, have a neighbor of the intended recipient receive the package in case the original recipient is not home at the time of delivery, receiving structures comprising multiple compartments, or shipping the parcel to the nearest station of the service provider and have the recipient pick it up at his or her convenience.
  • Another option multiple parcel services have chosen is building receiving structures for parcels or packages which are accessible either during business hours or 24 hours a day into which the parcels are delivered and then later picked up by the original recipient.
  • Delivery structures have multiple limitations and disadvantages. Delivery structures usually comprise multiple doors (e.g. one for each received parcel) which are opened after a customer identifies himself as the recipient so that the original recipient can take out the parcel. Accordingly, if such a structure were to provide delivery options for a certain number of customers, equally many doors with individual opening mechanisms and a controlling section need to be installed in a publicly accessible area.
  • the parcels which could not be delivered to either the recipient, or neighbors, or the receiving structure are brought to a shop or station of the corresponding parcel service where the parcel sits for a predetermined amount of days before it is shipped back to the dealer.
  • the parcel can be picked up during that time usually during business hours by the original recipient.
  • DE 20 2016 101 841 discloses a cabinet or cupboard which can be used for delivery of parcels and is designed to be mounted within a hole in a wall in order to be accessible from the outside by the parcel service and from the inside by a recipient/customer.
  • This prior art cabinet is not suitable to be installed in an apartment or house without major construction work, as an exterior wall needs to be built to have a hole in the dimensions of the cupboard. Only in this manner will only one side of the cupboard face the outside, as intended.
  • US 6,415,552 relates to an exterior wall of a building which is provided with a door that can be opened to expose a plurality of compartments for receiving a wide range of deliverable products. Accordingly, the same problems as in DE 20 2016 101 841 apply with respect to the installation of the compartments.
  • WO 97/12186 discloses a refrigerator comprising two doors on opposite sides so that the refrigerator can be mounted in a wall or alternatively in a door, such as a door for an apartment or a front door of a house/building.
  • This document fails to provide, however, a simple solution by means of which a delivery structure or delivery device can be placed within a door frame without modifying the door and/or the door frame.
  • it fails to disclose a compartment or space which can be used for deliveries not needing refrigeration.
  • an object of the present invention to provide a system which is capable of receiving deliveries and allows for quick installation without the need to modify an exterior wall of a building or in fact any wall while providing a safe and secured space to receive parcels from parcel services.
  • a door frame according to the invention comprises a container device which is suitable for receiving deliveries.
  • the container device may be removably secured to the door frame so that when the container device is secured to the door frame the space surrounded by the door frame is closed by the container device. Accordingly, the container device acts as a door when it is fit into the door frame and can be set in the door frame when a recipient leaves his or her house/apartment so that the container device is accessible to the parcel services.
  • the container device allows for a parcel to be deposited within the container device by parcel services.
  • the container device can be set in the door frame when the door is open and therefore close the house or apartment or alternatively the door can be removed and be replaced by the container device which means that the container device will act as a door even when the recipient is at home.
  • the dimension of the container device is advantageously as described in the following. To make the container device compatible with variety of sizes of door frames the current situation regarding front doors and apartment doors is summarized. Depending on the region the percentage of used doors being front-doors varies from 30% - 40% in northern Europe to 85% - 90% in southern Europe, while most of the remainder is apartment doors.
  • Doors usually comprise standard dimensions which do not vary by much depending on the building. Doors for apartments or single family houses comprise a width of 80-100 cm and a height of about 2m (190 cm - 200 cm).
  • the container device When choosing a size for a container device, the container device needs to be dimensioned to fit a class of door sizes which is most commonly used. Accordingly, the width of the container device should be sized so that it can be used in door frames for being at the lower spectrum regarding the width of the doors because a smaller container device can be used in combination with a bigger door frame. Should the container device be employed in a door frame for a bigger door, it can be provided with a surrounding frame to bridge the gap between the container device itself and the doorframe.
  • the container device comprising a width and height according to the above can fit into a wide variety of door frames which are currently installed in houses or apartments without the need to modify the door frame.
  • parcel services and dealers can adjust to the provided container size and package the goods accordingly.
  • the container device comprises at least one lockable door on one side.
  • the lockable door can be opened by parcel services so that goods or parcels being delivered can be deposited by the parcel services within the container device.
  • the container device comprises preferably two or three doors and more preferably four doors on one side.
  • the container device When the container device is used as a door while the original door is dismounted it is preferred to install doors on the opposite side of the container device as well so that the parcel services can operate the container device from one side (e.g. the outside) whereas the customer/recipient operates the container device on/from the other side (e.g. the inside).
  • one side e.g. the outside
  • the customer/recipient operates the container device on/from the other side (e.g. the inside).
  • the container device can further include an alarm system and/or surveillance cameras in order to identify the delivery person on the one hand and on the other hand provide additional security for the building and/or the received parcels.
  • the container device can comprise multiple compartments for example two compartments or preferably three compartments and more preferably four compartments.
  • the height and the width of the compartments are limited by the dimensions of the door frames most commonly employed as explained above in further detail.
  • the container device can comprise a compressor, a vaporizer and at least one heat exchanger or alternative means of cooling.
  • the container device can be coupled to the power supply system of the apartment of the house in order to receive electric energy to operate the compressor and or a controller.
  • the door frame can be equipped with multiple (e.g. four) holes perpendicular to the direction of the opening.
  • the container device may comprise cone-shape bolts which can engage the holes in the door frame to secure the container device to said door frame.
  • the container device When cone-shaped bolts are used the container device only needs a rough alignment with the holes when starting the locking process because the container device will be aligned by the cone-shape bolts entering the holes in the door frame.
  • the holes can be provided in additional parts mounted on top of the door frame or mounted to replace the inside facing parts of the door frame.
  • the additional parts can be made of any material like wood, plastic or metal as long as the material is strong enough to secure the container device.
  • the additional parts can be long rectangular parts preferably also being rectangular in a sectional view. The length of the additional parts can be so that the holes for one side are provided within one additional part. However, also one additional part for each hole can be provided.
  • the container device may be provided with an extending part which abuts the door frame at a side opposite to the side where the lock fixtures are provided.
  • the extended part may extend into a space between the door frame and the door or just into the cut out part of the door frame at which cutout part the door is in abutment with in a closed state.
  • the extending part may comprise multiple sections and/or can be sized so that it extends in the space between door hinges when the container device is set into the door frame. In other words, the extending part does not need to cover the entire height of the door.
  • the container device may comprise a locking mechanism on the side opposite to the extending part to lock the container device in the door frame using the same fixtures the door uses.
  • the container device may comprise a frontal design which is shaped and colored in accordance with the kitchen that is built in the apartment or the house in which the container device is employed so that when the container device is taken out of the door frame it can be moved into the kitchen and be used as a cupboard or refrigerator in said kitchen.
  • the container device preferably comprises wheels allowing for an easy movement of the container device within the apartment or the house. By providing wheels positioning of the container device in the door frame or a different space or room in the house when the customer/recipient is at home and the pre-installed door is used to close the apartment or house is simplified.
  • the container device comprises a bar code scanner and/or an RFID-reader in at least one compartment or preferably in all compartments so that the delivery of parcels can be tracked when inserted or delivered into the container device.
  • the container device may further comprise a control system which can be connected to the internet and control the securing of the container device to/in the door frame.
  • the control system may further control the alarm system and/or the surveillance cameras.
  • the control system may also control access to the compartments or space within the container device to secure the deliveries on the one hand and making it possible for parcel services to deposit a delivery in the container device on the other hand.
  • the controller may also be used to control the locking mechanism with which the container is secured to the door frame.
  • the container device may also be used for return shipments to the original dealer or supplier by allowing the parcel service to take out packages after identification and transport the package or parcel to the return address.
  • Another object of the present invention to provide a system which allows for a safer transport and securing of cargo and especially a more efficient transport by providing a box which can be received in the container device utilizing the maximum of the available space.
  • the boxes are reusable and comprise batteries and/or are RFID-chips so that the boxes are traceable and especially programmable so that it is not necessary to print out labels presenting the receiving address and the recipient but to program the recipient in the RFID-chip in the box.
  • Other means of identification/labeling of the boxes are possible for example e-INK displays, displaying the recipients address or barcodes or both.
  • an individual number can be assigned to each box so that the recipient of a box is not programmed within a box but the recipient is mapped to the number in the logistic services system. It is also possible to combine the above mentioned ID-systems and provide, for example, each box with an individual number while also employing RFID-chips to store information regarding the recipient in each box.
  • the electronics can be powered by a rechargeable battery which can optionally be charged using inductive chargers in the container device.
  • the boxes can be programmed within the container device by the original recipient. Therewith, the boxes can be used to return unwanted or rented items or packaging that needs to be disposed by the mail order company or retailer.
  • the boxes can be used by anybody in the market willing to adopt the standard so that across the whole chain of transport (logistic chain) a standard unit packaging is possible.
  • the box may be provided with slits or openings to allow airflow into the box. This is especially advantageous when the box is used for delivery of perishable goods like vegetables or other food because, when the box is set inside a cooled environment, cool air can flow easily to the goods stored inside the box and a cooling of the perishable goods is therefore enhanced.
  • Using such a box for food and other perishable goods is especially advantageous as those goods are usually wrapped individually leading to a high number of individual items which can then be easily combined in the box.
  • the boxes preferably have a width of 55-65 cm, a depth of 40-50 cm at an upper end and a width of 45-55 cm on a lower end.
  • the boxes further comprise a preferred height of 35-45 cm.
  • the dimensions of the container device and the boxes are chosen in accordance with standard sizes of front doors of single family building or doors of flats/apartments as explained above.
  • the chosen dimensions of the boxes are related to the size of the container device, which size and the according advantageous effects are as explained in detail above.
  • multi-box container a container device especially made for housing the boxes.
  • the container device 1 or multi-box container 1 of the preferred embodiment comprises four compartments 26A-26D which are arranged above each other (one above another).
  • the compartments are preferably cube-shaped. All four compartments 26A-26D preferably exhibit substantially the same dimensions.
  • Figure 1 shows a sectional top view of the multi-box container 1.
  • the multi-box container 1 comprises a frame structure 100 that can be made of steel or aluminum. However, different materials like plywood or other natural materials, polymer materials, composite materials, or other materials known in the art of furniture-making may be used.
  • the multi-box container 1 does not necessarily have to comprise a frame structure 100. It could also be made in an enclosed cupboard-style fashion.
  • the width of the multi-box container 1 is 80 cm.
  • the width of the frame 100A, 100B is 5 cm.

  • compartments 26A-26D While a configuration of four compartments 26A-26D is described in the preferred embodiment and three of the compartments 26A-26C are used for boxes 200A-200C the invention is neither limited regarding the number of compartments 26A-26D nor the number of boxes 200A-C or packages set in the multi-box container 1.
  • Each compartment 26A-26D may be provided with a reader 30 which reader 30 can be a bar code scanner/bar code reader and/or an RFID-reader. Those readers 30 can be used to track incoming packages as well as outgoing packages and can be connected to a controller 42 which is described later.
  • the top part 40 shown in figure 2 comprises the controller (not shown) and the cooling systems (not shown) as well as a connector to connect the multi-box container 1 to the electricity system of the house or apartment.
  • the cooling unit may be any conventional cooling unit, however, a cooling unit from Electrolux is preferred, as they have the highest energy efficiency.
  • the controller may be a central control unit for the multi-box container 1 and comprise a Wi-Fi connection so that the multi-box container 1 can be connected to the internet and remotely operated.
  • the controller may further control the locks and cone-shaped bolts 20A, 20B which are used to secure the multi-box container 1 to the side parts 10A, 10B.
  • the movement of the bolts can be motorized, for instance via electrically powered solenoids, rack and pinion drives or any other means known to the skilled person.
  • the controller may further control the doors 24A, 24B to open when delivery personal has been authorized to access any of the compartments 26A-26D or the recipient wishes to take out received parcels.
  • This authorization can be provided by different methods or types of authentication.
  • a pin pad may be provided so that the delivery person or recipient enters a pin and is thereby, if the pin is validated, granted access to any of the compartments 26A-26D.
  • the controller to which the cameras (20A, 20B) are connected, may provide a facial recognition feature so that the delivery person is granted access when the face is matched to any face that is allowed access by the recipient of the package.
  • Most of the authentication and authorization features used today in smartphones, tablet computers or personal computers can be used for this purpose.
  • the controller may also use the inductive readers/chargers 32 to program or track the boxes 200 when the boxes are set in the multi-box container 1 by parcel services or when a recipient sets a box 200 in the multi-box container 1 to be collected for returning unwanted items.
  • the boxes are described in detail further below.
  • FIG 3 a sectional side view of the multi-box container 1 is shown.
  • the gliding rails 28 of the upper compartments 26A, 26B are provided over the entire depth of the compartments 26A, 26B.
  • the gliding rails 28 can also be of reduced length as long as the insertion of the boxes 200 is facilitated.
  • compartments 26A-26D are further provided with inductive chargers 32/coupling means 32 to charge electronic parts provided in the boxes 200, which will be described in detail with respect to figure 4 .
  • the doors 24A, 24B are provided with door handles 25. While in the preferred embodiment only two doors 24A, 24B are shown for 4 compartments 26A-26D so as to separate the cooled compartments 26A, 26B and the compartments 26C, 26D not equipped with a cooling system any number of doors is possible. It is even possible to remove the doors entirely and secure the boxes 200 within the multi-box container 1. However, it is preferred to provide doors 24 so that cooling efficiency is enhanced on the one hand and on the other hand conventionally packaged goods can be received which need a door or some sort of closed compartment to inhibit theft.
  • the multi-box container 1 is set on wheels 50 which allows for an easy movement of the multi-box container 1 within the apartment or house and facilitates the arrangement of the multi-box container 1 within the door frame 2.
  • the boxes 200 in the preferred embodiment are provided with a width of 60 cm and a depth of 55 cm at an upper end.
  • the lower end is smaller so that empty boxes 200 can be stacked to store the boxes efficiently, as shown in figure 4c .
  • the upper frame has a height of 5 cm and surrounds the multi-box container 1.
  • the height of a box 200 is 40cm so that four boxes can fit into a multi-box container 1 which fits into a door frame comprising a height of 190-200cm.
  • the above-described dimensions of the multi-box container were chosen due to the limitations of standard German door frames.
  • the dimension of the boxes 200 are chosen so that the boxes can be advantageously employed in a multi-box container 1 having such dimensions and are, therefore, also linked to the dimensions of the standard door frames. Once the multi-box container is used in a country employing different standards for the door frames, the dimensions would need to be adapted accordingly.
  • the upper end of the multi-box container is provided with a frame 202 which comprises the electronics system of the boxes 200 used for tracking and setting a destination/recipient.
  • the electronic system in each box 200 is capable to replace the label as conventionally employed and communicate via RFID.
  • the electronic system of box comprises a chip 204 to provide a memory function to store information like contents, recipient, addresses for delivery and/or origin and so forth.
  • the chip comprises an antenna to provide RFID capabilities.
  • the electronic system further comprises a battery 206 which can be charged by inductive chargers 32 provided in the multi-box container 1.
  • the boxes 200 may be provided with slits or holes 208 to allow ventilation from outside to enhance cooling when the box is inserted into a multi-box container 1 which comprises a cooling system or in a delivery vehicle which employs a cooled cargo space.
