FR2818257A1 - Insulated container for parcels and food articles has electronic controls for opening external door by delivery person and inner door by dwelling owner - Google Patents

Abstract

The insulated container (1) for parcels has two automatically opening doors (2). Each door has electronic controls for opening of the external door by the delivery man and the inner door by the dwelling owner. Each door has an infra-red cell (5,5bis) actuated remotely. The container can have displays for the open condition of the doors.

Description

<Desc / Clms Page number 1>

The present invention relates to an insulated or possibly refrigerating container for domestic use
The novelty consists in introducing an insulated or refrigerated container on the outer enclosure of dwellings.

 This container has the function of receiving all kinds of packages and food products.

 This container being independent thanks to an electronic management.

 This isothermal and electronic device consists of a rectangular container (1) which inserts a thermal insulation between its external and internal walls.

 Are added on this body and on its height, two doors (2 and 2 bis), these doors also having a thermal insulator inserted between their external and internal plastic walls, whose fixing by hinges (11) incorporated allow the opening and the closing of these doors.

 The front door (2) also thermally insulated has a handle (3) in plastic material, on this same door (2) an indicator (4) is applied having for function, a flashing which during the loading, switches automatically on the indicator located on the back of the door (2 bis).

 The door (2) is provided with an identity door (14) having the function, the designation of the owner as well as an electronic infrared cell (5).

 The second door at the rear (2 bis) of the container is also provided with incorporated hinges (11) allowing the opening and closing of said door (2 bis).

 On this door (2 bis) is also applied a handle (3 bis) in

 plastic material, the door (2 bis) also has an infrared cell (5 bis), these electronic infrared cells (5 and 5 bis) operate remotely using a remote control with digital keys.

 The doors (2 and 2 bis) provided with their cells (5 and 5 bis) have the function of receiving electronic codes of six digits and more, these digits are then decrypted electronically and transformed into bar codes, these codes thus transformed will be used to the opening of the door (2) of the container (1) using a portable scanner-type device, which in turn will retransmit the bar code to the cell (5) which will trigger the electronic opening of the strike (13) .

 The door (2 bis) has a flashing light (4 bis) and a window (7), these doors (2 and 2 bis) have a rubber seal (10 and 10 bis) plated around it in order to obtain a seal.

 The doors (2 and 2 bis) have on their interior walls, an electronic closing system (13 and 13 bis) allowing the blocking of these doors (2 and 2 bis).

 At the base of the doors (2 and 2 bis), a spring rod (12) propels the doors (2 or 2 bis) outwards.

 The container (1) has on its contour at the top of each facade an anti-drip cover (9).

 This container (1) mentioned above, can receive refrigeration type equipment thanks to the addition (8) of an appropriate refrigeration unit which will allow it to produce cold.

 The container (1) has as its energy source, the alternating current (6).

Claims (10)

 1) Insulated or refrigerated container for receiving packages and food products, characterized in that it has two doors (2 and 2 bis) with automatic opening.  2) Container according to claim 1 characterized in that the outer door (2) is provided with an infrared cell (5) which has the function of memorizing confidential opening codes by means of a remote control with digital keys , the information in figures being then transformed into bar codes by an electronic system.  3) Container according to claim 1 or 2 characterized in that the interior door (2a) is provided with an infrared electronic cell (5a) having the function of capturing an opening mother code for the door (2a) .  4) Container according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that each door (2 and 2a) comprises an indicator (4 and 4a) for indication of delivery, the closing of the outer door (2) by the deliveryman causing the exterior indicator (4) to go out and the interior indicator (4a) to come on.  5) Container according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that each door (2 and 2a) has a handle (3 and 3a).  6) Container according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the outer door (2) is provided with an Identity door (14). <Desc / Clms Page number 4>

7) Container according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized by a double wall in which a thermal insulator is inserted between the outer wall and the inner wall. 8) Container according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized by the addition of an adaptable refrigeration unit (8).
