FIG. 1 shows an exemplary front view of a security bag placed in front of a door. -
FIG. 2 shows an exemplary side view of the security bag and the door. -
FIG. 3 shows an exemplary rear view of the door and the door block device to secure the bag. -
FIG. 4 shows an exemplary bag with lock thereon. -
FIGS. 5-8 show a clip-on embodiment. - Reviewing the figures collectively, a
bag 100 has acollar 102 with astring 101 disposed therein. The collar is formed from a material having sufficient tensile strength to retain string in a looped configuration without the assistance of an external force. For example collar may be formed from nylon or other suitable materials as depicted inFIG. 1 . The string extends from a collar opening and is adapted to be looped on adoorknob 52 of adoor 50 for securing thebag 100 holding valuable contents to thedoor 50. - In this embodiment, the
string 101 extends around an interior surface of doorknob through holes and provided in collar and through hole provided in ring. While not shown inFIG. 1 , the bag may include a second string that extends between collar and ring a second string enables string to support the weight of bag when the latter is attached to door and as a result doorknob does not bear the weight of bag thereby reducing the likelihood of damage to doorknob when bag is used for deliveries or shipments of parcels. The owner of the parcel will retrieve the parcel by removing the parcel from bag. Since the parcel is attached to door it is important that the string of bag be easy to remove from doorknob for example the diameter of ring should be larger than the diameters of holes and so that the former can be easily removed from the latter by sliding the former over the latter. - The drawstring may be wrapped around the neck of collar the string and is secured at its ends on opposite sides of collar by a securement device. A latch may be slidably disposed on collar to selectively secure drawstring on collar. The latch may have two notches defined therein to allow the latch to pass over a portion of string alternatively the latch may have three notches defined therein to allow the latch to pass over two portions of string the latch is configured to prevent the drawstring from being accidentally removed from collar possible problem although the present invention will help in preventing theft of packages left in areas that are accessible to the public there are still potential problems associated with such an arrangement for example if someone wants to remove a package and take it home with him he can simply untie the string from collar he then leaves the package alone and comes back to pick up the package after a short period of time he can then retie the string to collar and leave with the package without anyone noticing anything unusual conventional latch systems and their problems there are various conventional methods for securing objects together using a cord one of these methods involves using a lanyard or tether to secure items together.
- In one embodiment, a
lock 104 can be removed by manipulating plug with a screwdriver pliers or any other similar tool. A string inside collar can be pulled out from the collar to remove lock when lock is removed. The security bag is ready to be installed suitably shaped locking. Alternatively, adhesive members (not shown) may be provided on security bag for securing the security bag to a door frame door to prevent theft of delivery parcels placed in the security bag. - The
bag 100 has a bottom attached to one end of a bottom string orstrap 106. During set up by the homeowner prior to delivery, thebottom strap 106 is slidably placed under thedoor 50. The other end of thebottom strap 106 is attached to adoor block 108. Thedoor block 108 is designed to prevent the removal of the bag from the door once locked. In one implementation, the door block may be a box or bolt that is designed to be placed on the rear side of thedoor 50 that faces inside the house. When the door block is in place and tightened by the delivery person, thedoor block device 108 prevents the bag from being opened by blocking its path. Thestrap 106 does through thedoor block device 108 and then through astrap claim 110 and emerges as anoptional strap handle 112.Strap clamp 110 is inserted under the door, or as shown inFIG. 3 , through a hole in door a cord passes throughstrap clamp 106 which holds it against the inside ofdoor 50. Thedoor block device 108 may be easily removed by pulling on its end and placing it in a small opening behind door so that it is completely out of the way when needed. - In one embodiment, the
bottom string 106 is pulled andtop string 101 is released to make the bag have a round appearance when it is necessary to secure a parcel such as for example the parcel ondoor 50. The security bag is placed over the parcel the bottom string is then pulled to a desired degree and the top string is released if someone attempts to remove the parcel from inside the security bag the bottom string will tighten and give resistance thereby making it harder to steal the parcel. This is an effective theft prevention method since only the delivery person has access to thetop string 101 in thecollar 102. Once tightened, thebag lock 104 can only be opened by the intended recipient. Further, the bag is secured to the door via theblock device 108. As such, thebag 50 is not movable. With the collar secured by thelock 104, thebag 50 is secured against a thief. - Alternatives to the bag lock device can be used. In another embodiment, the bag lock includes a lever rotatably mounted on the collar, said lever having a first end and a second end opposite to said first end said lever being pivotally movable about said axis between a first position wherein said first end is located within said collar and a second position wherein said second end extends outside of said collar and a button adjacent to said lever said button being adapted to receive a force applied thereto so that said lever is pushed against said force whereby said string is tightened in a one way manner by the delivery person. The recipient would have a key to unlock the lever and open the bag.
- Other door block devices can be used. For example, a locking bolt can be used and is adapted to be secured in the doorway collar while another locking bolt can be slidably received in the doorway. collar the locking bolt that is secured in the doorway collar is prevented from moving by use of a blocking rod this blocking rod is preferably comprised of flexible material in order to lock the door the locking bolt must be in a position where it blocks the movement of the door thus preventing the bag from being opened.
- While
FIGS. 1-2 shows the bottom of the bag secured to the bottom of the door, the recipient can secure the bag to any part of a door jamb, which is the flat surface that runs vertically up either side of the door frame. The door jamb is vital to the running of the door. This is where the hinges are placed to hang the door, as well as the striker plate on the opposite door jamb which helps you to open, close and lock your door. - In one embodiment, the collar and bag lock can be secured to the
door handle 52. The bag can be constructed with a collar made of strong material such as plastic which contains astring 101 that extends out ofcollar 102 so that it can be secured to a door or post near the point of delivery. Thestring 101 has a sufficient length to extend from security bag to the point of delivery the end of string has a loop which is large enough to secure around a conventional lock knob on thedoor 50 or other secured area at the point of delivery. The string loop also may optionally provide an internal threading or ribbing that allows it to be screwed onto the exterior surface of a door or wall this makes loop virtually impossible to remove without destroying it. -
FIG. 4 shows an exemplary bag withlock 104. The bag can be a large Nylon Oversized Plug & Control Cover that provides a tall flexible and durable rip-stop nylon bag. -
FIGS. 5-8 show a clip-on embodiment. During use, the delivered product is placed inside the bag and a top string is pulled to secure the product inside the bag and a suitable lock can be used to prevent unauthorized access to the content of the bag as detailed above. The bag in one implementation has a hook on a side that is secured to a corresponding receptacle on a door, a pole, or a solid structure. The bag further has two mounting belts that can be connected to or clasped with the door, pole or solid structure. The mounting belt can further be secured with a suitable lock. The system ofFIGS. 5-8 provides a security method that includes: - attaching a bag to a structure, the bag having a bottom and a collar at a top portion; a string inside the collar that is tightened after delivery of a product in the bag, a strap coupled to the bag bottom and a block coupled to the strap;
- placing the product into the bag upon delivering the product;
- securing the product by closing the collar and locking the collar with a lock to secure the bag;
- clipping the bag to a secured structure and tightening the bag to the secured structure with lockable strips or belts.
