Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de traitement du courrier par lots, dans lequel il n'est pas nécessaire de procéder à une inspection sur place. L'expédition 16 du courrier achète un montant d'affranchissement auprès d'un poste central 14, ce qui l'autorise à expédier du courrier suivant une valeur égale au montant des affranchissements achetés. L'expéditeur traite des lots de courrier, chacun étant accompagné d'un bordereau résumant le type et le nombre des plis de courrier expédiés et le montant de l'affranchissement pour chaque lot. Le bordereau contient des données qui permettent la vérification du paiement du courrier. Le dispositif permet en outre un transfert de fonds postaux entre divers dispositifs d'expédition de courrier et un dispositif centralisé de comptabilisation des opérations d'expédition.
