It was easy for dust and rainwater to enter, and it was easy for the inside to get dirty.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a mail box in which the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional one are eliminated.

(Means for Solving Problems) In order to solve the above-mentioned problems of the conventional one, the mail box according to the present invention has the following configuration.

That is, the container outer box (A) forming one outer frame of one of the two containers forming the mail box is a four-sided cube in which one of the lower surface, the front surface and the rear surface is removed, and stoppers (2) projecting inward from both side surfaces. ) (2), the rotary shaft recess material is fixed near the lower corner.

On the other hand, in the inner box (B) forming the other inner frame, one surface that remains as a front cube is removed by fitting, and the enclosing middle plate (7) is attached below. A slight gap is provided so that the upper surface does not contact the outer box (A), and the notch guide grooves (3) and (3) into which the stoppers (2) and (2) of the outer box (A) are inserted on both sides, Rotating shaft recessed material near the direction (5)
Rotation shaft holes (6) and (6) are provided on which (5) can be screwed and supported, and a lower outer surface angle is cut into squares (8).

(Operation) If the knob (9) attached to the inner box (B) is pulled toward you, the upper surface of the inner box (B) does not come into contact with the outer box (A) at the slight gap (1) inside the upper surface. Rotate to the position of the stopper (2) (2) protruding inward from both sides of the outer box (A) by its own weight through the guide mechanism of the notch guide grooves (3) (3) provided on both sides. Fall sideways. At the same time, the lower surface is pivoted upright, and the surrounding middle plate (7) is pivoted sideways near horizontal. Therefore, the inner box (B) has an open form. When the knob (9) is pushed back in the opposite direction, the knob (9) is inserted into the outer box (A) and the closed form is obtained. Since the outer corners of the lower surface are cut into squares (8), they do not come into contact with the upper surface of the lower mailbox when they are stacked.

(Embodiment) Various embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

First Embodiment FIGS. 1 and 2 are perspective views showing a first embodiment of the present invention, and FIGS. 3 and 4 are side views of partial cross sections.

The stoppers (2) and (2) projecting inside the both side surfaces provided inside the cutting guide grooves (3) and (3) close to the lower surface when the inner box (B) is fitted and turned sideways. It is stuck at the position where Moreover, the lower corners (the positions where the rotation shaft holes (6) and (6) come when the inner box (B) is fitted) are also provided with the rotation shaft recess members (4) and (4).

The inner box (B) is a five-sided cube having upper, lower, left, right and rear faces, and the remaining one face is removed as a face to be fitted. A lower middle plate (7) is attached to the lower part.

Further, notch guide grooves (3) and (3) are provided on both side surfaces on a raceway surface in which the inner box (B) is upright and the lower surface is pivotally inverted, and the outer box (A) is fitted with the fitting surface. The more protruding stoppers (2) and (2) can be inserted.

Then, from the turning shaft holes (6) and (6) provided in the lower corners of both sides (the center of the corner cut surface with the inner box (B) standing upright), the turning shaft convex members (5) and (5) The box (A) and the inner box (B) are screwed and pivotally supported.

By fitting the outer box (A) and the inner box (B) with the above configuration,
A slight gap (1) is held on the upper surface of the inner box (B) so that it does not contact the inside of the upper surface of the outer box (A), and pull the knob (9) attached to this side to cut guides on both sides. The mechanism and the rotating shaft concave and convex members (4), (4), (5), and (5) can be pivotally moved, the lower surface naturally inclines and inclines, and the enclosing middle plate (7) is also horizontally laid down. . Therefore, since a tray-shaped opening is formed, the mail inside can be easily taken out without dropping.

Second Embodiment FIG. 5 is a front view showing a second embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 6 is a partial sectional side view.

In the first embodiment, the opening / closing outlet by fitting the outer box (A) and the inner box (B) of the two containers forming the mail box,
Although it is on the back side of the mail box (first-in / out-out type), the opening / closing outlet cannot be used on the back side when stacking in a housing complex.

In the second embodiment, one of the two containers forming the mail box, the inner box (B), is located at the front, and the inlet and the opening / closing outlet are common surfaces.

Further, since the corner cuts (8) near the lower corner are made up to both side ends, even if a large number of them are stacked, they can be rotated and opened and closed.
