Description

  The present invention relates to a delivery box for receiving a package delivered to a detached house or the like.

  Delivery boxes are devices that receive parcels delivered on behalf of recipients, and are widely supported by households that have difficulty receiving parcels in the daytime, such as double-income households. In particular, in recent years, the use of online shopping by individuals has increased rapidly, and along with this, the number of packages delivered to houses such as detached houses has also increased rapidly, so a convenient delivery box has been demanded.

  Hereinafter, a delivery box according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  Briefly described, the delivery box is a storage body for temporarily storing luggage (delivery goods) introduced from an opening (inlet) 7 as shown in FIG. An openable lid 2 that can cover the opening 7 is provided. When the lid 2 is in a normal state, that is, in a “closed” state, as shown in FIG. 1 (a), the lid 2 is located at the upper front portion of the delivery box 1 and covers the opening 7. In this state, as shown in FIG. 1 (b), the opening 7 is exposed by being lifted to the top of the delivery box 1. In the following description, the side on which the load is loaded in the opening 7 will be described as the front side.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the delivery box 1 is provided with a main body 3 for storing a bag in addition to the lid body 2, and for taking out the baggage stored in the main unit 3 provided on the lower front surface of the main unit 3. The door 6 is provided.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the main body 3 is erected from a rectangular bottom plate 13, left and right side plates 14 erected from the left and right sides of the bottom plate 13, and a rear side of the bottom plate 13. A back plate 15, a front plate 16 erected from the front side of the bottom plate 13, and a top plate 18 provided at the upper ends of the left and right side plates 14 and the back plate 15. The main body 3 is configured to have a size capable of storing up to two 80-size packages. The 80-size baggage is a rectangular parallelepiped shape with a value obtained by adding vertical, horizontal and height dimensions within 80 cm.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, a double-layer buffer mat 31 (an example of a multilayer buffer portion) is laid on the upper surface of the bottom plate 13 in a range wider than a predetermined position. This predetermined position is a drop position of the luggage D thrown from the opening 7. The two-layer cushion mat 31 includes a durable layer 32 as an upper layer and a shock absorbing layer 33 as a lower layer. The durable layer 32 is higher in hardness than the shock absorbing layer 33 and is, for example, a non-crosslinked polyethylene in-mold molded foam. As the durable layer 32, for example, L-Block (registered trademark) is employed. The shock absorbing layer 33 is provided with a cushioning property that does not damage a 5 kg piece (for example, a glass product) falling from a height of 800 mm or more. The cushioning property referred to here depends on the hardness and thickness of the layer. The shock absorbing layer 33 is, for example, a synthetic resin sponge. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the side plate 14 is formed by forming the front upper corner of a rectangular plate into an R shape. As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the front plate 16 is provided with a guide body 61 for guiding the fall of the load D introduced from the opening 7 on the rear surface thereof. The guide body 61 prevents the dropping positions from being widely dispersed and also reduces the impact on the luggage D due to the dropping. For this reason, the said guide implement comprises the guide plate 66 inclined so that back might become low. As shown in FIGS. 2B and 3A, the guide plate 66 extends from the front to the lower side with respect to the front end of the tilting mounting plate 23 (described later in detail) that is substantially horizontal. Placed in. Further, the front plate 16 has an outlet 17 whose lower part is cut out in a rectangular shape, and the door 6 is disposed at the outlet 17.

  The door 6 is of a single opening type and has a structure that opens toward the outside (front) of the main body 3. The door 6 is provided with a cylinder lock 6c as shown in FIGS.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the lid 2 includes a curved lid plate 22 that is curved along the rounded shape R of the side plate 14 in the main body 3, and left and right sides provided on the left and right sides of the curved lid plate 22. It has a semicircular side plate 24 and a tilting placement plate 23 on which a load D loaded from the opening 7 can be placed. A gripping tool 26 (an example of a gripping portion) is attached to the lower outer surface of the curved lid plate 22 as shown in FIG. As shown in FIGS. 1B and 2, the left and right semicircular side plates 24 have a shape in which one end of a string 29 in a substantially semicircular shape is cut off by a line perpendicular to the string 29. The tilt mounting plate 23 is joined along the cut line. The left and right semicircular side plates 24 each have an arc portion 25 and a central corner portion, the arc portions 25 are respectively joined to the inner surfaces of the left and right end portions of the curved lid plate 22, and the vicinity of the central corner portion is opened and closed. The shaft 27 is rotatably supported by the left and right side plates 14 in the main body 3. Therefore, the lid 2 can be manually rotated by the gripper 26 as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 around the opening / closing rotation shaft 27.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 (b) and 2 (b), the opening 7 of the delivery box 1 is formed between the left and right side plates 14 of the main body 3 and the front end of the top plate 18 of the main body 3. The upper end of the plate 16 is formed. For this reason, the opening 7 is opened and closed by the rotation of the lid 2. 2A, the chord 29 in the substantially semicircular shape of the semicircular side plate 24 is substantially horizontal and fully closed, and as shown in FIG. The string 29 in the substantially semicircular shape of the side plate 24 is formed into a shape that is substantially vertical and fully open. Therefore, the tilting mounting plate 23 is substantially vertical when the opening 7 is fully closed as shown in FIG. 2A, and the opening 7 is fully open as shown in FIG. 2B. It is almost horizontal.

  Hereinafter, the operation of the delivery box 1 will be described.

  The delivery company using the delivery box 1 first holds the gripping tool 26 and rotates the lid 2 to bring the opening 7 into the “open” state as shown in FIG. At this time, the tilting mounting plate 23 is substantially horizontal. Then, the home delivery company puts the load D through the opening 7 and places it on the tilting placement plate 23. After that, as shown in FIG. 3B, the lid 2 is rotated in the reverse direction, so that the opening 7 is brought into a “closed” state. At this time, since the tilting placement plate 23 tilts gradually from substantially horizontal to substantially vertical, the load D placed on the tilting placement plate 23 falls to the lower part of the main body 3. The luggage D is guided by the guide plate 66 while falling and falls onto the double-layer cushion mat 31 as shown in FIG. In the two-layer buffer mat 31 on which the load D has fallen, the shock absorbing layer 33 is mainly recessed to absorb the impact caused by the drop, and the load D is not damaged. On the other hand, even if the impact absorbing layer 33 has low durability, it is difficult to sag because it is protected by the durable layer 32 located on the layer close to the load D (that is, the upper layer).

  As described above, according to the delivery box 1 according to the first embodiment, the luggage D can be inserted from the opening 7 only by the operation of setting the opening 7 to the “open” state, and thus the operation can be facilitated. .

  In addition, since the load D is not dropped directly from the tilting placement plate 23 to the double-layer buffer mat 31, the load D is guided to the guide plate 66 while being dropped, so that the load D can be prevented from being damaged.

  Furthermore, since the double-layer cushion mat 31 sufficiently absorbs impact and is difficult to sag, damage to the luggage D can be prevented.

  In addition, since the main body 3 is configured to be capable of storing up to two 80-size packages D, up to two 80-size packages D can be received.

  Compared with the delivery box 1 according to the first embodiment, the delivery box 1 according to the second embodiment can also prevent the stored luggage D from being stolen.

  Hereinafter, the delivery box 1 according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, and will be described by focusing on the guide body 61 different from the first embodiment, and the same configuration as the first embodiment will be described. The same reference numerals are given and the description thereof is omitted.

  The guide body 61 according to the second embodiment is not a fixed guide plate 66 as in the first embodiment, but an inclined guide plate 67 that tilts in conjunction with opening and closing of the opening 7 by the lid 2 as shown in FIG. It comprises. The tilt guide plate 67 is disposed between the left and right side plates 14 and is supported by pins 68 on the left and right side plates 14 so as to be tiltable at the front end portion. Further, the tilt guide plate 67 is connected to the left and right semicircular side plates 24 by wire rods 70 at the left and right ends thereof. The positions of the left and right semicircular plates 24 connected by these wire rods 70 are in front of the opening / closing rotary shaft 27. Further, the tilt guide plate 67 has a reinforcing hook-shaped portion 69 on the rear side. Note that the tilting mounting plate 23 according to the second embodiment is longer than the tilting mounting plate 23 according to the first embodiment on the opposite side of the curved lid plate 22.

  In the delivery box 1 according to the second embodiment, the opening 7 is in the “open” state, and as shown in FIG. 6A, a tilt is placed between the luggage D stored in the main body 3 and the opening 7. It is blocked by the plate 23 and the tilt guide plate 67. Further, in the delivery box 1, with the opening 7 being “closed”, as shown in FIG. 6B, the load D is between the baggage D stored in the main body 3 and the opening 7. It is squeezed by the tilting mounting plate 23 and the tilting guide plate 67 to such a size that it cannot pass.

  As described above, according to the delivery box 1 according to the second embodiment, the tilting placement plate 23 and the tilting guide plate 67 allow the space between the luggage D stored in the main body 3 and the opening 7 to a size that the luggage D cannot pass. Since it can be squeezed, the stored luggage D can be prevented from being stolen.

  By the way, in the said Example 1 and 2, although the two-layer buffer mat 31 was demonstrated as an example of a multilayer buffer part, it is not limited to two layers, You may comprise layers other than the shock absorption layer 33 and the durable layer 32. FIG. .

  In the first and second embodiments, the gripping tool 26 has been described as an example of the gripping portion. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the curved lid plate 22 is recessed (or notched) so that a finger can be hung. Any configuration capable of gripping may be used.

  Further, although not described in detail in the first and second embodiments, a drain hole or an anchor bolt hole may be provided in the bottom plate 13.
