Description

Mail box structure for apartment}

More particularly, the present invention relates to a mail box structure for a multi-family home, which can automatically input mail items into a corresponding luggage management box and transmit information of arrival of mail items to a user in a wireless communication manner .

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, development of information providing technology that provides information on various fields via a remote data communication network to a plurality of subscribers through at least one host server due to development of information communication technology is actively under development.

Recently, information sorting technology and compression technology are being developed, which can more conveniently access the surrounding technology and subscribers' tastes and preferences, such as cache memory extension technology for providing accurate information more quickly to subscribers. And the development of various contents and solutions thereof is being spurred.

Therefore, such information communication technology and electric / electronic technology are connected, and recently home electronic technology is being rapidly developed.

Since home electronics technology is combined with information and communication technology, it is possible to control various electronic devices remotely, and it is possible to generate control signals such as remote driving control, driving reservation setting, driving stop setting, It was. Through this, recent industrialization has made a great contribution to enhance human convenience, and even now, it is increasingly spurring the improvement of human-centered convenience.

However, despite the rapid development of technologies related to the improvement of human - centered convenience, such home - based electronic systematization is still limited to personalization and single - homeization, and thus it is a limitation in the convenience of the interworking system.

In other words, since the postal delivery and the like are still out of the offline level, a direct mailman or courier visit each home to deliver mail or mail. However, in such a case, there has been a problem that, in a home to be delivered to receive a small-volume delivery article or mail, the mail receiver must wait at the delivery date.

Also, in the case of the delivery carrier, even if it is a multi-family house, it is necessary to visit the home of each recipient directly to deliver the corresponding item, so that it is time-consuming and costly.

Further, in the case of ordinary mail, since the delivery work is completed by inputting the mail into the mailbox installed in the apartment house such as an apartment or a villa, the recipient of the mail is notified correctly and can not receive the mail, There is a problem in that it is very likely to be lost by being mixed with the theft and other advertisements.

In addition, when the mail is put into the mailbox of another lake, the owner of the mailer can not find the mail without knowing whether the mail is delivered.

In order to solve this problem, Korean Patent Registration No. 10-0726289 (2007.06.01) is provided in the front door of an apartment or a first floor of a villa so that a shipper can directly input delivery information and transmit it to each home's home video phone The users of each household tried to solve the problem by presenting a digital mail box which can directly control the opening and closing of mailboxes by entering password or reading / authentication of authentication card.

However, conventionally, the sender simply inputs the delivery information directly to the domestic videophone of each household, and can not transmit it to the communication device of the owner of the lake at the same time when the mail arrives, There is a problem that the owner can not immediately confirm or notify the user about the error delivery when the mail of this other lake is input.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a mail box structure for a common house which is capable of automatically inputting mail items into a corresponding luggage management box and delivering information of arrival of mail items to a communication device of the owner of a lake .

In addition, the present invention re-checks whether or not a mail item has been misjudged in the corresponding lagoon control box even if the mail item is classified into the corresponding lagoon control box, and if misclassification occurs due to an error, The present invention provides a mailbox structure for a residential home that can be immediately informed to the communication device of the manager of the lake.

Further, the present invention is characterized in that the above-mentioned mailbox is detachably installed at the entrance of a house, and is electrically connected to an auxiliary communication device installed in each lake, so that an error with one or more auxiliary communication devices Another object of the present invention is to provide a mailbox structure for a residential apartment, which, when incurred, separates only the manager of the lake from the mailbox so that an errored communication line can be checked immediately.
