Abstract

A carrier apparatus is provided for transport through a pneumatic tube delivery system. The carrier apparatus comprises a housing contoured with forward and aft portions and an axially extended body portion disposed therebetween. The housing includes at least first and second separable sections enclosing a carrying compartment. At least a pair of retaining assemblies are detachably coupled to the housing, with each retaining assembly encircling the housing's body portion to couple the first and second housing sections for angular displacement one relative to the other between open and closed configurations. Each of the retaining assemblies includes a glide band portion disposed to protrude radially from the housing in the closed configuration for slidably engaging an inner wall surface of a pneumatic delivery tube. At least one latch assembly is coupled to releasably lock the housing sections in the closed configuration.

Description

FIG. 1 is a frontal perspective view of a carrier apparatus for pneumatic tube delivery system illustratively incorporating our present design;
FIG. 2 is a top elevational view thereof;
FIG. 3 is a front elevational view thereof;
FIG. 4 is a right side elevational view thereof, an opposing left side elevational view being a mirror reflection of such right side elevational view;
FIG. 5 is a rear perspective view of the carrier apparatus for pneumatic tube delivery system shown in FIG. 1;
FIG. 6 is a rear perspective view thereof in a vertical orientation, as viewed from a first viewing angle; and,
FIG. 7 is another rear perspective view thereof in a vertical orientation, as viewed from a second viewing angle.
The broken lines in FIGS. 1 and 4 are directed to environment and are for illustrative purposes only; the broken lines form no part of the claimed design.
