[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In the conventional mailbox 103, when a delivery having a large vertical dimension and a wide dimension such as a newspaper is loaded, when the delivery is attempted to be taken out from the opening 106a, it is caught on the peripheral edge of the opening 106a and is difficult to take out. On the other hand, if the delivery is small enough to be hidden by the mail box 103, the distance from the opening 106a to the bottom is large and it is difficult to access and take out.

An object of the present invention is to provide a mailbox in which newspapers and the like can be easily taken out.

【Example】

 A mailbox according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. As shown in FIG. 1, the mail box 3 is made of resin or the like, and is attached to the back side of the vertically long mail receptacle 2 formed in the door 1 so that the vicinity of one side 3a covers the mail receptacle 2. The upper part 3c on the opposite side 3b of the one side 3a is cut off.

As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the cross-sectional shape of the mailbox 3 is such that the storage space 6 is formed between the inner peripheral wall of the mailbox 3 and the back surface of the door 1, and the back surface of the door 1 is formed. It is protruding and curved. 6a indicates an opening. As shown in FIG. 4, insertion holes 4a for inserting screws are formed at the upper and lower corners of the one side 3a and the opposite side 3b of the mailbox 3, respectively. The mailbox 3 is fixed to the door 1 by screws (not shown) inserted through the screw insertion holes 4a.

As shown in FIG. 1, the door 1 is provided with a handle 1c for opening and closing the door 1, a knob 1d for locking and a mail receptacle 2 in the vertical direction near one end face 1a. A hinge (not shown) for rotatably attaching the door 1 to the opening 7 in the wall surface is provided on the opposite end face 1b. As shown in FIG. 3, the mail receiving port 2 penetrates the door 1 through an insertion passage 2a having a vertically long rectangular cross section, and has openings on the front and back sides of the door 1. As shown in FIG. 2, the cross-sectional shape of the insertion path 2a is such that the door 1 is provided on the side wall near the center of the door 1 so that a delivery or the like can be obliquely inserted toward the center of the door 1 from the mail receiving port 2. Has a slope inclined to the center of the back surface.

A delivery (not shown) is inserted into the mail receptacle 2 from the front side of the door 1, and the tip is inserted from the opening on the back surface of the mail receptacle 2 along the inclined surface provided in the insertion passage 2 a. Make it protrude. When the delivery is further inserted from this state, the entire delivery reaches the storage space 6 while curving along the inner peripheral wall of the mailbox 3. When taking out the delivery, pull it out obliquely upward from the opening 6a. The insertion passage 2a may penetrate the door 1 obliquely from the front surface toward the center of the back surface.

As described above, since the opening width of the opening 6a is widened by cutting the upper portion 3c of the mailbox 3, even when a large delivery such as a newspaper is taken out, the mailbox 3 can be taken out without being caught in the peripheral portion of the opening 6a. On the contrary, even if the delivery is small enough to be hidden in the mailbox 3, it can be taken out through the opening 6a. That is, the mailbox 3 can easily take out these items regardless of the size or the like of the delivered items.

[0012]

[Effect of the device]

 In the mailbox of this invention, the delivery can be easily taken out by cutting off the upper part on one side that covers the mail receptacle in the vicinity.
