A plurality of standing wall portions 62a and 62b are erected on the upper surface of the bottom plate 60 at intervals in the width direction, and a plurality of grooves 63 are formed between the standing wall portions 62a and 62b. Each of the standing wall portions 62a and 62b is formed so as to extend in the front-rear direction. The standing wall portions 62a located on both sides in the width direction are formed in a substantially triangular shape in a side view.

Further, the bottom plate 60 is formed with a recess 64 at the end on the back side opening 23c side. The recess 64 has a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from above, and is formed in the bottom plate 60 from the center in the front-rear direction to the rear end in the center in the width direction. The recess 64 forms a space below the load placed on the bottom plate 60. The standing wall portion 62b erected at a position corresponding to the front of the recess 64 is formed in a substantially trapezoidal shape in a side view.

The upper ends of the standing wall portions 62a and 62b are arranged so as to be located on the same plane along the horizontal direction, for example, in the luggage receiving portion 22a. As a result, the upper ends of the vertical wall portions 62a and 62b form a luggage storage portion for luggage to be deposited in the luggage receiving portion 22a. Further, the bottom surface 65 of each groove 63 is formed so as to incline downward from the back side to the front side. Then, as shown in FIG. 5 (and FIG. 7), a drain hole 66 is formed at or near the lowermost position of the bottom surface 65.

In the luggage receiving box 10, the outer peripheral surface near the rear side of the front frame portion 20b is fixed to an opening such as a small wall by using mortar. In this case, if the bottom surface 65 is formed with a downward inclination toward the front side as in the bottom plate 60 of the present embodiment, the unevenness of the bottom surface of the bottom surface 65 becomes small in the vicinity of the front frame portion 20b, and as a result, mortar construction is performed. There is an advantage that it becomes easy to finish.

In the baggage receiving box 10 of the present embodiment, since rainwater or the like that has entered the box enters the groove 63, the baggage placed on the bottom plate 60 is not maintained in contact with water. Therefore, even if rainwater falls into the cargo receiving portion 22a when the front side first door 34 is opened, it is possible to effectively prevent the water from penetrating into the deposited cargo.

As shown in FIG. 5, the end portion 34a on the front side first opening 23a side of the front side first door 34 opened at the maximum opening angle θ1 is a plurality of standing wall portions constituting the luggage loading portion in the luggage receiving portion 22a. It is substantially on the same plane as the upper ends of 62a and 62b, or at a position lower than the luggage loading portion. With this configuration, the front side first door 34 does not get in the way when depositing the luggage in the luggage receiving portion 22a, or the luggage is placed in the luggage receiving portion 22a without applying an excessive load to the front side first door 34. Can be easily deposited in.

As shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, the luggage receiving box 10 further includes a back door 70. The back door 70 is a door that opens and closes the back opening 23c of the luggage receiving portion 22a, more specifically, the back opening 23c defined by the storage portion main body 20a and the partition portion 24. The back side opening 23c and the front side first and second openings 23a and 23b face each other. The back door 70 is made of, for example, a metal plate.

The back door 70 has a downward opening structure in which the lower end portion in the closed state is rotatably hinged to the rear lower portion of the storage portion main body 20a. Therefore, for example, when the resident pulls the upper end portion of the back door 70 from the back side of the luggage receiving box 10, the back door 70 rotates around the lower end portion so that the back opening 23c is opened. It has become.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, a key portion 72 having a key hole is provided on one surface (back side surface) of the back door 70. Further, a locking piece 74 connected to the key portion 72 is connected to the other surface (front side surface) of the back door 70. When the back door 70 is in the closed state, when the key is inserted into the key hole of the key portion 72 and the key is rotated in a predetermined direction, the locking piece 74 is installed at the rear end of the partition portion 24 (FIG. (Not shown). As a result, the back door 70 can be opened.

As shown in FIG. 5, the back door 70 is configured to open freely by its own weight. Specifically, it can be rotated by its own weight around the hinged end, and can be opened at an opening angle of about 180 degrees in a free state with respect to the back opening 23c. By opening the back door 70 in a state of hanging below the luggage storage portion 20 in this way, for example, when the resident takes out the luggage from the opened back opening 23c, the back door 70 does not get in the way. , The luggage can be easily taken out from the luggage receiving unit 22a and received.

Generally, it is necessary to consider whether the door of the luggage receiving box is opened to the right or left depending on the construction site. However, according to the luggage receiving box 10 of the present embodiment, the front side first door 34 and the front side first door 34 are installed. Since both the two doors 35 and the back door 70 have a downward opening structure, there is an advantage that such an examination becomes unnecessary and the installation work becomes easy. Further, when the luggage receiving box 10 is wide, the movable range of the doors when opening the front side first and second doors 34 and 35 and the back side door 70 can be reduced as compared with the case where the luggage receiving box 10 is opened sideways. It has the advantage of facilitating opening and closing operations.
