Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a trunk for consignment that stores a deposit bag for storing valuables such as cash and bankbooks.

Business hours of financial institutions such as banks are limited to daytime hours only. On the other hand, the business hours of customers who do business with these financial institutions vary;
Even if a customer attempts to deposit the cash, etc. that he/she has collected on that day into a financial institution, the financial institution is closed for business, and in many cases, the customer is unable to deposit cash, etc. with the financial institution on that day. In order to eliminate this inconvenience, financial institutions such as banks have installed night deposit safes on the outside walls of their stores and accept deposits outside business hours, such as at night. However, when using this night deposit safe, customers must carry cash etc. to a bank branch.

Nowadays, there are many customers in one building,
Each of these customers often has transactions with the same financial institution, and in such cases, an unmanned temporary deposit machine is installed on the outside wall of the building so that each customer can visit the bank branch. At the very least, cash, etc. is deposited into the temporary deposit device, and the money is collected in bulk by a bank or a consignment company contracted with the bank and each customer, thereby reducing the effort of each customer and increasing safety. There are possible ways.

This method involves forming a through hole in the outer wall of both the building where the contract customer is located and the building of a financial institution such as a bank, which communicates the inside and outside of the building, and locking the outside and inside of the through hole, respectively. In some cases, a hangar is installed with an outer door and an inner door, and a consignment company transports the trunks stored in the hangar. However, in this case, if the consignment company contracts with multiple financial institutions or contracts with customers in multiple buildings, the financial institution may confuse the contract customers and financial institutions and make the mistake of not storing the trunks in the official hangar. , there is a risk of disrupting the business of contract customers.

In view of the above points, the present invention aims to provide a trunk for consignment that will not be transported by a consignment company to the wrong financial institution or contract customer.

For this purpose, the trunk of this invention has left and right side wall plates,
The inner space of an outer case having a peripheral wall plate and a rear wall plate consisting of upper and lower wall plates and having an open front is partitioned by a plurality of partition walls to form a plurality of partition chambers,

If the trunk 1 is pushed in until it hits the stopper 21, the light transmission hole 7 of the trunk 1 and the light emitting part 1 of the phototube detection mechanism 18 will be removed.
The trunk 1 is located at a position where the light receiving section 9 and the light receiving section 20 face each other.
can be positioned. At this time, the trunk presence sensor 23 confirms the trunk 1 and the lock 25 and the lock 15 are locked, so that the receipt issuing device 24 issues a receipt to the consignment company, and the recording device 28 records it.

The trunk 1 of the present invention, in which the deposit bag has been deposited by the contract customer, is transported to a financial institution by a consignment company. A trunk 1 containing empty deposit bags 8 is stored in a hangar 30 on the financial institution side, and the consignment company unlocks the lock 36 of the hangar 30 and opens the outer door 3.

However, if the shape, position, and quantity do not match, the trunk 1 cannot be pushed in, and the consignment company will not mistake the contracted financial institution. When replacing the trunk 1, the receipt issuing device 40 issues a receipt to the consignment company by the trunk presence sensor 39 and the locking operations of the locks 37 and 35, and the recording device 41 records it. After that, the financial institution unlocks the lock 33 and locks the inner door 3.
