Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for delivering products, which products are ordered by customers with the aid of communication means via a communication network.
- the delivery of goods ordered in the above-described manner is generally done by a parcel delivery service.
- the door-to-door delivery of products requires a relatively large deployment of manpower and means.
- flows of goods between the different suppliers and recipients can at least partly overlap, so that the available transport capacity is not always fully exploited.
- This inefficient use of transport means leads to extra strain on the infrastructure and the environment.
- a further drawback is that a recipient needs to be at home at the intended time of delivery, which takes up his time and can disturb his schedule for the day. When a recipient is not at home, the deliverer has to return at a later time, or deliver the product at another location, for instance at a depot for non-deliverable products. This also demands extra deployment of manpower and means.
- the invention contemplates a method for delivering products, wherein the above-mentioned drawbacks have been obviated while maintaining its advantages. To that end, the method according to the invention is characterized by the features of claim 1.
- the transport flows of various suppliers can be joined.
- double or partly overlapping transport flows can be avoided and, thus, a more efficient use can be made of manpower and means.
- the number of delivery addresses can be reduced and the number of transport flows can be limited still further. This contributes to a relief of the infrastructure and the environment.
- the delivery devices are available twenty-four hours a day, both for receiving products coming from the depot and for delivering products.
- a recipient does not need to stay at home for the delivery of a product destined for him and can collect the product at any desired time. Moreover, he can receive several products, which may or may not come from different suppliers, at the same time.
- central depots can be provided, each being associated with a different set of local delivery devices.
- the respective product can always be brought to the proper depot.
- the products can be subdivided into batches, each batch comprising at least one and preferably more products, which are all destined for one specific delivery device.
- the code can be a once-only code, associated with the order, which, during the delivery path, is passed on to the recipient, for instance directly after ordering or after payment or after the arrival of a product at a delivery device and the respective recipient is informed accordingly.
- the code can also be a personal code, which, for instance, is assigned to a customer or recipient further to a subscription taken out by him to the use of the delivery devices or a selection thereof.
- the code can be a software code or a hardware code or a combination of the two.
- each sub- batch comprises products for one specific recipient
- the efficiency in delivering the products can be enhanced.
- the fact is that such a sub-batch can be delivered to the respective recipient in one operation.
- a code is then issued with which a sub-batch can be released from the delivery device in its entirety.
- a product code can be used for releasing a batch.
- the composition of the batch can be a surprise to the recipient, for instance when the batch comprises a gift for the recipient, ordered by a different person.
- a method according to the invention is characterized by the features of claim 6.
- the customer can choose with which delivery device the ordered product has to be delivered, he can always have the product brought to a delivery device which suits the recipient best, for instance near his home, work or holiday address, or to a delivery device near the address of a different person to whom the product is to be delivered. Also, a customer can choose to collect an ordered product from a delivery device while passing through.
- the degree of freedom of choice in delivery devices can be coupled to a rate, the rate for instance increasing according as the customer wants to be able to choose from a larger number of delivery devices or from delivery devices located at a larger distance from the depot.
- the frames can further cooperate in an advantageous manner in the delivery of products to recipients.
- a sub- batch of more than one product destined for the same recipient can be delivered at one time.
- the frame forms an aid for storing, transporting and delivering a batch of goods, all destined for one specific delivery device, while a drawer in the frame corresponds to a sub-batch of goods destined for one specific recipient.
- a method according to the invention is characterized by the features of claim 11.
- products can not only be delivered from a supplier to a recipient, but also between two different delivery devices and their designated recipients.
- a delivery service from recipient to recipient is obtained, with all the associated earlier-mentioned advantages, such as a twenty-four hour availabiEty of the delivery devices and a large freedom of choice in delivery devices.
- the invention relates to a system for delivering products ordered by a customer, characterized by the features of claim 12.
- a method for delivering products according to the invention can be efficiently executed.
- intensive traffic to and from this depot can take place without causing inconvenience to the people living in the vicinity.
- a frame according to the invention is characterized by the features of claims 15, 16 and 17. Owing to a flexible dimension and partitioning of the frame, this frame can always be geared to the number of products and their individual dimensions. Thus, the space in the frame can be used more fully and a higher degree of filling can be achieved, which increases the cost-effectiveness of the transport.
- a delivery device is characterized by the features of claims 24 and 25.
- the delivery device By providing the delivery device at least partly underground, its implementation can be simplified as the delivery device can be more easily fitted in among the already existing buildings, for instance underneath a car park. Moreover, in this manner, destruction of the landscape is avoided.
- Implementing the delivery system can be further simplified by designing the delivery devices as prefab building elements of a standardized shape and dimension. Then, preferably, the dimensions are chosen such that the underground part of the device does not reach the groundwater level, thus circumventing problems associated therewith. Moreover, digging work and costs can be limited.
