Description

Mailbox battery for correspondence.

Object of the invention

The present invention relates to a battery of mailboxes used in correspondence distribution, Usable both at the level of housing by floors and at the level of urbanizations with single-family homes.

The object of the invention is to achieve a selective reception of correspondence, eliminating all that do not arrive through postal service or other services authorized, and also allowing to discriminate one and the other type of correspondence, such as correspondence provided by the postal service and the correspondence provided by Bank dealers, with different degrees of accessibility.

Background of the invention

Conventionally in mailbox batteries for  Mailboxes or independent mailboxes are established, with doors also independent and equipped with means of own lock, as well as corresponding letters for Correspondence introduction.

This conventional solution presents a problematic with a double aspect, on the one hand it implies a greater difficulty and waste of time for the mailman, at the time of distribute the letters in the corresponding boxes, on all when, as usual, there are difficulties due to size of certain cards for their passage through the letters, and on the other hand, the fact that anyone has access to mailboxes, being able to introduce what you think is convenient in them, such as advertising, so that in addition to meeting users in their mailboxes with a lot of information They don't want to receive. Also, the accumulation of propaganda, such as happens for example during holiday periods, denotes the situation of vacuum of a house, increasing the risk that it is raped by thieves.

Trying to obviate this problem, they are known mailbox batteries in which there is a front and general door, lockable by a master key held by the mailman, establishing in said general door a plurality of individual doors, corresponding to the respective lockers, and lacking of letters, so that when the mailman delivers the correspondence opens the front door and directly deposit the envelopes in the lockers, closing subsequently said door, while each user or neighbor has the key corresponding to your personal door, to Access to your correspondence.

In this way no unauthorized person you can enter letters or other objects in any of the lockers, no observer will be able to detect from outside if such lockers are full or empty and, consequently, the security level is markedly increased, while Completely eliminates the reception of unwanted propaganda.

The problem with this solution is that the key master for opening the battery of mailboxes, in addition to being in hands of the postman, must be in the hands of another series of people, such as mail delivery people bank, which are foreign to mail. This possibility of access by different operators inside the battery lockers of mailboxes makes none of them, especially the service of post office, take responsibility for the deliveries made.

Description of the invention

The battery of mail boxes that the invention proposes, in the line of batteries above cited, resolves the problem fully satisfactorily exposed in the different aspects commented.

For this and more specifically, the invention it focuses on that, returning to the oldest conventional technique, each locker is equipped with the corresponding door with its corresponding lock and its also corresponding bocacarta, so that the locker only has access to the holder of the same, but with the special feature that the bocacarta of each mailbox or locker is located independently of the corresponding door, for example above it, and that the battery as a whole is complemented by a general door equipped of large longitudinal windows, so that said windows face the doors of mailboxes or lockers, and consequently they allow the opening of the latter with the General gate closed, while the unopened areas of said door face the letters, shutting them, and preventing deposition inside mailboxes or lockers of any letter or object, until said door is opened general, which will also be endowed with its corresponding lock, with master key, held by mail and any other types of operators, such as those that distribute the Bank correspondence, repeatedly cited.

In this way and by not having these operators anymore that access with your key to the mailboxes of the mailboxes or lockers, there is no possibility of manipulation by same mail that may exist in such mailboxes, and therefore the postal service can continue to be responsible for deliveries made, which cannot be subjected to any type of improper handling
