Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to an improvement in a device for delivering packages within a building.

In high-rise housing complexes (hereinafter referred to as high-rise housing), mailboxes for each unit are concentrated near the ground entrance. Therefore, the residents of each house have to go there to collect their mail. Especially in high-rise buildings where elevators are installed, you go to the elevator landing, call for a car, wait for the car to come, get on the car, go to the first floor, collect your mail, and use the elevator again to return. It's very annoying because I have to bring it with me. In addition, high-rise residential buildings receive deliveries of newspapers, milk, parcels, bulletins, etc. These items are delivered to each door by a handling company, but in high-rise buildings with elevators installed, a considerable amount of manpower is required to deliver them.

This invention improves the above-mentioned problem by providing a baggage receiving box in the elevator car and allowing it to be placed on the platform by pressing a button at the landing, thereby saving the delivery person the trouble of delivering the goods and allowing the recipient to receive the goods. To provide an in-building baggage delivery device that can reduce labor.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6.

In the diagram, 3A to 5A are floors from the 3rd floor to the 5th floor, and 3B to 5A are floors from the 3rd floor to the 5th floor.
5B are the up buttons provided at the landings on the 3rd floor 3A to 5th floor 5A, 3C to 5C are the down buttons, 1D to 5D are the luggage buttons provided on the landings from 1A on the 1st floor to 5A on the 5th floor, and 7 is the elevator button. 8 is a well-known elevator car that goes up and down on the road, 8 is a baggage receiving box fixed to the landing side under car 7, and 8A is a baggage receiving box in which the space inside the baggage receiving box 8 is divided into a plurality of sections, each of which is used by the occupants of the building. Correspondingly provided receiving shelves 8B are respectively provided on the landing side of the luggage receiving box 8 and are doors 8 that open and close the receiving shelves 8A.
C is a mail slot provided on the door 8B, 8D is a lock provided on the door 8B, 8E is a back plate made of a transparent plate provided on the hoistway side of the baggage receiving box 8, and 8F is a back plate 8E. A television (hereinafter referred to as television) camera 10 is installed under the basket 7 and photographs the baggage receiving box 8 from the hoistway side.
A lighting lamp installed under the basket 7, 11 an R/F converter that converts the video output of the TV camera 9 into TV radio waves of an empty channel, 12 a community receiving antenna installed in the building, and 13 an antenna 12.
14 is an R/F mixer that mixes the output of the R/F converter 11 and the output of the booster 13, 15A to 15N are television receivers installed in the living room of the building, and 21 to 25 are Baggage call registration relays that register baggage calls for the 1st to 5th floors when operated and energized by baggage buttons 1D to 5D for the 1st to 5th floors, respectively, 21a to 25a, 21b.
25b is its normally open contact, 31 to 35 are baggage box position contacts that are opened when the baggage box 8 arrives at the 1st floor 1A to 5th floor 5A, respectively, 36 is a baggage call detection relay, and 36a is its normally open contact. , 37 is terminal A,
When terminals A and B are open, the car 7 is placed on the floor as shown in Figure 1, and when terminals A and B are closed, the baggage receiving box 8 is placed on the floor as shown in Figure 2. In the elevator operation circuit, (+) and (-) are DC power supplies.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained.

Now, for example, at the landing 4A on the 4th floor, go up button 4B.
Alternatively, when the down button 4C is pressed, a hall call is registered by a circuit (not shown), and the operation circuit 37 is operated to carry out the well-known elevator operation, and the car 7
is called to the 4th floor 4A and lands on the 4th floor 4A as shown in FIG. This is normal operation.

On the other hand, the television camera 9 photographs each receiving shelf 8A through the back plate 8E of the luggage receiving box 8 from the hoistway side using the light of the illumination lamp 10. The video output is sent to an R/F mixer 14 via an R/F converter 11.
and distributed along with general television radio waves to television receivers 15A to 15N in the rooms of the building. Therefore, in each household, if the television receivers 15A to 15N are set to the predetermined empty channels, the image of the baggage box 8 photographed by the television camera 9 will be received, and the mail will be sent to the mailbox 8F.
You can know whether or not it is coming.

Now, if a resident on the fourth floor 4A wants to receive mail on the 8th floor, he presses the baggage button 4D on the landing. Now, in the circuit of (+)-4D-34-24-(-),
The fourth floor baggage call registration relay 24 is energized and maintains itself by closing the contact 24a. Also, contact 2
4b is also closed, so the baggage call detection relay 36 is energized and the contact 36a is closed. Now, the operation circuit 37 is activated, and a call for the fourth floor is handled in the same way as a call for the fourth floor by the destination button (not shown) in the car 7, and the operation based on the cargo receiving box 8 is performed. It will be done. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 2, the luggage box 8 will land on the fourth floor 4A. And the above resident locked 8D with the key in his possession.
, open the door 8B, take out the mail 8F inside, and lock it again. On the other hand, when the baggage box 8 arrives at the fourth floor 4A, the baggage box position contact 34 is opened, so the baggage call registration relay 24 is deenergized.
The contacts 24a and 24b are opened, the baggage call detection relay 36 is also deenergized, and the contact 36a is opened. The elevator will now return to normal operation.

The same goes for the postman, and if he calls the basket 7 using the baggage button 1D on the first floor, the baggage receiving box 8 will land on the first floor 1A, so the mail will be placed in each receiving shelf 8A through the slot 8C. Just throw things in.

Although we have omitted the explanation of the operation of the car door and the landing door (not shown), the luggage buttons 1D~
When the car 7 is stopped by the operation of the car 5D, the car door and the landing door are configured to open and close if the level difference between the bottom of the baggage receiving box 8 and the landing floor is within a predetermined range. Since this can be easily implemented, details will be omitted.

In the embodiment, the package receiving box 8 is shown for the delivery of mail, but the present invention is not limited to delivery of mail, but can also be implemented for delivery of other packages such as milk and parcels. In addition, baggage box 8
Although the cage is fixedly installed under the cage 7, it may be fixedly installed above the cage 7.

As explained above, in this invention, a baggage receiving box is provided in an elevator car, and when a baggage button at a landing is operated, the car is called to the landing and the baggage receiving box is placed on the landing. This saves the delivery person the trouble of delivering packages to each house, and reduces the effort of the package receiver to go to the ground to receive the package.

In addition, the baggage box was photographed with a television camera, and the image was received on the empty channel of each television receiver, so the residents of each household could see it while they were indoors.
You can know the delivery status of your package.
