LESSER BERHARDT GROESCHEL, OF YORK, N. Y.
c SAFETY aEcEr'rAoLn.
Application led October 6, 1921. Serial No. 505,847.
To all whom t may concern y Be itv known thatl I, LnssnR BGRonsoHEL, a citizen of the United States, and a resident. of the city of New York, `borough of Manhattan, in the county and State 4of New York, have invented a new and Improved Safety Receptacle, of which the following is a full, clear, Aand exact description.
. This invention relates to safety receptacles for holding groceries or the like.
= lPrior to this invention itvha-s been the experience of many that when groceries are delivered and no one is at the residencev to receive them they are deposited on the doorstep or in some unlocked -building or bo-x. The consequence is that before the arrival of the owner they are removed by some unscrupulous individual.
' The object of this invention is the pro! vision of a safety receptaclethat may bey left open for the reception of the groceries or the like and that may be locked and attached to some immovable support after the groceries or the like have been placed 25 therein.
vA further object is the provision of a receptacle that may be closed after it has been removed from the support so that the contents may be carried handle attached to the lid.
These objects are accomplished by providing a box having a hinged lid and means mounted thereon that may be associated with means carried by some support or immovable object and locked thereto by some locking means which serves to retain the receptacle closed and fixed to the support. These and other objects of the invention will be more clearly understood from the following detailed description and accompanying drawings.
Figure 1 is a perspective view showing the safety receptacle mounted on a door and locked in position;
Figure 2 is a side elevation of the safety receptacle showing the means for connecting it to the door;
Figure 3 is a cross section along the line 33, Figure 2; and
Figure 4 is a cross section along the line 4 4, Figure 2.
Referring to the above-mentioned figures, a door 10 is shown on which the safety receptacle may be mounted. The safety re- 55 ceptacle consists of a box 11 having a hinged lid 12. This lid 12 is carried by two hinges 13 by vmeans of a andv 14. Attached to the edge of the lid 12 by means of rivets 15 is an eye member 16 whichv extends a short distance beyond the edge ofthe receptacle. A hook 17 is fixed by 60 means of rivets 18 to the lower portion of the side of the box over which the eye inem-- ber 16 extends. A socket 19 is mounted on the door 10 and serves to engage the hook 17. Mounted on the door above the socket 19 and located in such a position that they register with the eye member 16 when the hook 17 is engaged in the socket 19 are two eye members 20 and 21. These eye members are "shown attached to the door by means offscrews 22, but are preferably atv tached by means of rivets or bolts so that they cannot be removed without great dift'lculty. A bar 23, provided with a ring 24 and an opening 25, of such a size that it may be projected through the eye members 16, 2O and 21, is provided. The ring 24 is of a sutlicientsize to prevent the bar being drawn through the eye members, and the opening 25 serves as a means for attaching a lock 80 26 tovprevent the removal of the bar by drawing it in the other direction.
Mounted on the ends of the box are two buckles 27 and 28. Fixed upon the lid of the box are two spring plates 29 and 30. 85 When' the receptacle is not mounted upon the door the buckles 27 and 28 may be moved into engagement with the plates thus serving to hold the lid closed. A handle 31 is connected to the lid of the receptacle 90 and serves as a means for carrying it when the lid is held closed by means of the buckles 27 and 28.
A slight modification of the locking means is shown in Figure 2. In this case a `head 32 is formed on the end of the bar 23.
A spring lock 33 is mounted on the door and has an opening in the side with which the head of the bar 23 registers. This lock 33 is provided with spring engaging means that grip the head 32 of the bar 23 when it is inserted so that the bar may not be removed without the key that fits the lock 33.
When it is desired to use the safety receptacle for the reception of groceries or the like it is detached from the door and left open. Upon the arrival of the delivery man he laces the groceries, milk or other commoities in the receptacle, then engages the hook 17 in the socket 19 and projects the bar 110 23 through the eye members 16, 20 and 21.
The spring lock 26 is then locked in position in the opening 25, or, in case 'o a lock such as shown at 33, forces the head 32 of the barv into the lock. Thus the receptacle is locked shut and in connection With a support or an immovable object. l
I would state in conclusion that vvhil'e' the illustrated examples constitute practical embodiments of my invention, I do not limit myself strictly to the exact details herein illustrated since manifestly the same canbe considerably varied Without departing from the spirit of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
