An automated point of storage and delivery of goods, parcels and perishable products with a built-in payment function should carry out the identification of the user, his role and the list of functions available to the user according to the table. one.

The automated point for storing and issuing goods, parcels and perishable products contains a video recording camera 1, a lighting system 2. On the central console 12 of the automated point for storing and issuing goods, parcels and perishable products are located: portrait video camera 3, touch monitor 4, contactless card reader 5 ( for example, such as PayPass), a bank card reader 6, a receipt printer 7, an anti-vandal 16-button keyboard 8, a label printer 9, a bill acceptor 10. An automated point of storage and delivery of goods The ditch, parcels and perishable products contains a cabinet 11 without a cooling system and a cabinet 13 with individual cooling of each container of the cabinet.

An automated point of storage and delivery of goods, parcels and perishable products with a built-in payment function can have containers of various sizes.

An automated point of storage and delivery of goods, parcels and perishable products with an integrated payment function can be equipped with a container and a device for issuing clean envelopes and adhesive.

In the automated point of storage and delivery of goods, parcels and perishable products with a built-in payment function, it is possible to receive cash on one banknote in order to verify their authenticity and, accordingly, reject banknotes.

In an automated storage and delivery center for goods, parcels and perishable products with a built-in payment function, it is possible to accept non-cash funds using all types of bank cards, including contactless cards like PayPass.

The automated point of storage and delivery of goods, parcels and perishable products with a built-in payment function is equipped with an anti-skimming plate to protect bank cards.

In an automated storage and delivery center for goods, parcels and perishable products with a built-in payment function, it is possible to print labels with a bar code.

Inside the cabinets of the center console 12, a microclimate should be maintained. Humidity is not more than 80%, temperature 10-400 ° С, in addition, the cells of storage cabinets must be reliably protected from precipitation.

The claimed automated point of storage and delivery of goods, parcels and perishable products with a built-in payment function can be used by people with disabilities through the software installed in it, which allows the client to switch to the "For people with disabilities" mode and get bookmarking and / or departures only in cells not higher than the level available to a seated person.

An automated point of storage and delivery of goods, parcels and perishable products with a built-in payment function allows

send and receive letters, parcels or documents;

receive orders from online stores (stores), including grocery orders with the possibility of return;

store things at the expense of the container rental function;

take things to the laundry or dry cleaning and get them back;

make on-site payment for the services provided;

repair various technical devices and get them back (for example, smartphones, tablets, laptops, navigators, DVRs, video players, etc.);

avoid problems related to the human factor.

Functionality:

weighing an envelope or parcel;

input of data and parameters for sending;

calculation of the cost of delivery / dispatch of a parcel or letter;

payment for services in banknotes and coins;

payment by credit card (including contactless);

printing a fiscal receipt;

printing an address label or barcode;

issuing change in coins and bills;

print format address label;

printing of accompanying documents.

The client to whom it is necessary to send, for example, a registered letter, puts it on the scales and, using the keyboard on the touchmonitor 4, dials the address of the sender and the address of the recipient. The processor generalizes the information and transfers it to a printer, which prints it on an envelope along with the necessary service information (for example, a parcel code with possible additional encoded addresses of the sender and recipient) or directly on the mail with standard sizes, in particular thickness. At the same time, information about the shipment is sent from the processor to the marking device with the RF tag, in which it is used to store the RF tag in the memory. As a rule, this is all the information that is provided by the sender, as well as information about the weight of the poisoning, service information, in particular, about the separation of the sender mail, about the separation of the mail receiver, the date and time of departure, etc. Sticking a stamp on an envelope can be done automatically when the printer is combined, in which the available device for pulling the envelope (paper) and the device for applying labels or manually can be used.

Using a stamp or envelope with a radio frequency identification tag can fundamentally change the process of sorting letters. At the same time, identification of RFID tags is much more reliable than other methods of reading information. The simultaneous identification of a large number of RFID tags allows you to read data on a large number of mail items located in one mail container or bag. Simultaneously with sorting, information about the current state of the mailing, which may be available to the sender or addressee, enters the database.

The adhesive means is used to attach the sign of payment to the envelope. Alternatively, the adhesive may be in the form of a tape (roll) of flexible material (paper, plastic) with a double-sided adhesive layer, which, in turn, can be coated with protective layers. Removing the protective layers, we connect the envelope and the sign of payment.

The lockable doors of the containers of the corresponding cabinet 11 and / or 13 open after payment by the client user for courier delivery or postpay, which is realized, for example, by using a relay in the electrical circuit of the lock.

In the case of payment in cash, the user may be given change through the change delivery window or transferred to a mobile phone account.

In addition, this utility model provides the service of notifying the recipient of the delivery of his parcel via e-mail, CMC messages and other communication channels, if the goods are not suitable for the recipient, the return function is provided in the terminal.

The technology for the delivery of perishable goods in the declared automated storage and delivery center for goods, parcels and perishable products with an integrated payment function consists in installing a cooling system in the containers of cabinet 13, which works on the principle of refrigerators and air conditioning, where couriers from online stores or farmers deliver products . The buyer makes an order, and a message is sent to his phone with the address of the automated storage and pick-up point, container number and password that will allow picking up products from the container of the automated storage and delivery center for goods, parcels and perishable products with a built-in payment function. Next, an automated point of storage and delivery of goods, parcels and perishable products with a built-in payment function carries out user identification according to the approved algorithm, accepts payment of the order in cash (through a bill acceptor 10) or in a cashless way (through a proximity card reader 5 or bank card reader 6) and opens the container with paid order.

As a result, such a scheme allows not only to lower the cost of products and save consumers time, but also to ensure constant sales to manufacturers.

The various examples and illustrations referenced in this disclosure are not intended to limit the implementation or practical implementation of the idea of a utility model, except where explicitly indicated or otherwise required in the following utility model formula. An automated point of storage and delivery of goods, parcels and perishable products with a built-in payment function for this utility model can be effectively improved or modified through conventional optimization without departing from the essence of the utility model embodied in the formula. An automated point of storage and delivery of goods, parcels and perishable products with a built-in payment function can be performed with a different combination of these devices and a different number of cabinets 11 and 13 without cooling and cooling. The location of the cabinets 11 and 13 relative to the center console 12 may also be different.
