V the box in a position prcfe'ably sheltered This invention relates to devices which against the weather, but readily accessible 65 might, be designated as delivery-growls rcto the one who delivers the goods. In the ceivers and by which is meant a suitable rccase shown, the back B of the box is ex- 5 Cl])l2lL'lU or box adapted toreceivc commoditended at both of its ends to form flanges g ties which are delivered at regular iuter- Z1, I which, in connection with screws or j vals, as for instance daitv. the arrangement. oi the receiver bei'ng such as to make the i i p prescn -eot il'w recipi nt llllll( 'f ttl when the goods are left. the delivered goods being is the lid of the box, hingcdly attached.

In the 1 ignrc I, shows my receiver in perspcccase of milk for instance, the empty bottles IIVO view, partly open. Fig. 2. is a vertical would be placed on top of the lid of the transverse t.'1'us. et:tiOn through it midway I closed box. The milkman removes then),

. l side of its front-wall with the receiver unl deposited. iii; once affects the locking meek] nails. permit its attachment. .70
anism in a manner to cause the same to be come automatic, so that, when the lid is dropped, it not merely closes the box, but
also locks it at the same time. The means and their construc ion whereby this is accomplished are as follows:
G is a false bottom fitted inside of the box and supported above bottom H thereof,
it being seated upon one or more springs 8,
resting on the lower bottom. Normally the upper bottom, when nothing rests upon it,
occupies its high position as shown in Figs.
2 and 3. It is connected to locking-hook E in a manner that at that time it holds the same in a position in which it is unable to engage its keeper D. Observe for instance Fig. For the purpose of such connection I use a slide 9, which is attached-to bottom G, and extends upwardly on the inside of front-wall F, it preferably occupying a recess, provided in the inner side thereof. Bolt E also occupies this recess and is pivotally supported therein at e. A tail-spring 10, shaped as shown, extends from the heel 7' of bolt E and has a loop 17 at. its free end which is engaged by a projection 11 on slide 9. hen false bottom G is depressed by the weight of the delivered goods deposited thereon, projection 11 on slide 9, when this latter moves down, causes the locking bolt to swing into locking position, that is a position in which its hook-shaped end is enabled to engage keeper 1) automatieall y when the lid is lowered. This is due to the action of spring 10 which also holds the bolt yieldingly in such locking position, which position is further one in which the lower partof the bolt extends into reach of the wards of inserted key 7 to enable them to engage the boltto permit unlocking of thelid. The recess which is occupied by this locking mechanism is closed by a cover-plate 12 which in proper position is provided with an opening 13, to support the stem-end of the inserted key. A stop 14 limits the upward movement of slide 9. This slide in combination with the recess to which it is fitted and the cover-plate which closes this recess serves as a means to guide the i.ottom during its movements and prevents it from tilting; It
' may be preterm-i to keep also the empty bottles insideof the box until taken away by the milkman. 'lo'prevent them from acting by their weight upon the slide in a manner which would lock the box, an.additional false bottom is provided which may. be in form of aswinging flap L, pivoted at Z and upon which the empty bottles rest, said flap being prevented from acting upon bottom G by stops 15 which hold it up. After the empty bottles are removed, this flap is lifted up and the full bottles are placed upon bottom G, with the result of locking the box as before described. This flap may be caused to raise up automatically. by means of springs 16 which lift itas soon as the empty bottles'arc taken off.
llaving described my invention, 1 claim as new: a i
I. In a delivery goods receiver, the eombination of a box provided witha lid and with a r cess on the inside of its front-wall whirl: (Xtzl'ldS from the bottom of the box vertically upward, a. keeper on the lid, a locking hook pivotally supported within the box and adapted to engage the keeper .on the lid, spring extending from the heel of this book, a false bottom within the box, means to hold the same in a normally elevated position but permitting it to yield to the weight of goods delivered upon the same, a slide rigidly connected to the front edge of this hottomso as to move with it and titted into the recess of the front-wall mentioned whereby both the slide and the connected bottom are guided in their movements and means whereby the same is operativcly connected to the spring on the book so that changes in position of the slide atfectthe position of the hook with reference to the keeper on the lid.
2. In a delivery-goods receiver, the combination of a box, a lid for it, a keeper thereon, an adjustable locking-device adapted to engage this keeper, but normally incapable 9-5 of engageuu-nt therewith, a depressible false bottom inside of the box and'susceptible to be acted upon by the weight of delivered goods when deposited thereon, operative connection between it and the locking-device whereby this latter is rendered operative when the false bottom is depressed and an additional false bottom adjustably supported above the bottom first mentioned and adaptedto support articles without all'ecting the bottom below. 7 3. In a delivery-goods receiver, the combination of a box, a lid for it, a keeper there'- on, an adjustable locking device adapted to engage thisikceper, but normally incapable of engagement therewith, a dcpressible t'alse bottom inside of the. box and susceptible to be acted upon by the weight of delivered goods when deposited upon it, operative con neetion between it and the lm-king device whereby this latter is rendered operative when the false bottom is depressed, an additional false bottom in form of a hinged flap provided above the bottom first mentioned and adapted to support articles without af- 'fecting the bottom below it, and means whereby this flap is normally held in an olevated position.
In testimony whereof, I hereunto allix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
