BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a door provided at the entrance of a building such as a front door, and more particularly to a door with a home delivery receiving device that can receive home delivery services.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A courier service is usually received by hand when delivered. When the family member was out of the house, he could not receive the courier service, so he or she waited for another delivery or saw a note that the delivery could not be made due to the absence, and the family member went to pick up.

Nowadays, the number of courier services is increasing, and it is desired to be able to receive the courier service even when the householder is away. To meet this demand, boxes for home delivery have been developed. This is a box equipped with a doorway that allows luggage to be taken in and out.It uses a password or a key to open the door of the luggage entrance and exit, and stores the delivered luggage and locks it. . This box can be installed near the entrance of the building, or it can be embedded in the wall at the time of new construction to receive courier service.

Some can receive two deliveries. This is by dividing the vertically long box into upper and lower parts, providing two independent storage parts, and providing a separate door for each.
You can receive the courier separately. When the courier is received in one of the storage units, it is displayed. Therefore, the delivery person
The vacant storage section can receive the parcels delivered by courier.

Such a conventional box system is
The installation space is a problem, and it is not preferable to install a large box near the entrance such as the entrance. There is a problem in embedding it in the wall surface because it restricts the floor plan even when it is newly built.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 is a view for explaining an embodiment of a door with a delivery service according to the present invention. FIG. 1 (A) is a side view in a reception state, and FIG. 1 (B) is a side view in a folded state. It is a figure.
In the figure, 1 is a door, 2 is an opening, 3 is a small door, 4 is a bottom plate, 5
Is a back plate, 6 is a top plate, 7 is a side plate, and 8 and 9 are mounting members. The bottom plate 4, the back plate 5, the top plate 6, and the side plate 7 constitute a storage portion. Among the bottom plate 4, the back plate 5, and the top plate 6, at least the back plate 5 is a room when the small door 3 is opened. Is formed of a plate-shaped body so that it cannot be seen through. The bottom plate 4 and the top plate 6 can also be formed of a plate-like body, which is also advantageous in terms of strength. The side plate 7 is formed of a rod-shaped body or a narrow plate-shaped body, and upper and lower ends thereof are rotatably supported by the bottom plate 4 and the top plate 6, respectively. Engaging portions of the back plate 5, the bottom plate 4, and the top plate 6 are also rotatably supported. Further, the door-side ends of the bottom plate 4 and the top plate 6 are rotatably attached to the door 1 by attachment members 8 and 9.

FIG. 2 is an exploded view showing an example of an engaging structure of each member constituting the storage portion. In the figure, the same parts as those in FIG. The shaft support portions a and b between the respective members are rotatably engaged with each other by using an engagement pin or the like. By fixing the rotatable attachment members 8 and 9 using hinges or the like to the inside of the door, the storage section can be attached to the door. When the small door is opened, it is preferable to make the storage unit sturdy so that the storage unit is not destroyed and the bandits do not enter the room.

Returning to FIG. 1, description will be made. As shown in FIG. 1A, the storage portion is attached so that the top plate 6 is located near the upper portion of the opening 2 of the door 1. A chain W or the like may be provided to reinforce as shown by the chain line. Note that FIG.
The mounting position of is just an example, and the storage part can be mounted at a position shifted upward. Further, although the height of the storage portion is set to be larger than the height of the opening of the opening portion 2, it may be set to the same level. The size of the opening 2 may be any size that allows an expected parcel delivery package to pass through.
For example, the size may be such that an orange box or an apple box can pass through. A small door 3 is provided in the opening 2 so that it can be locked. A delivery company with a key can use this. An electric lock mechanism can be used to open the small door with a personal identification number. Considering a power failure, it is better to use a battery as the power source.

As described above, since the member forming the storage portion is rotatably supported by the engaging portion, the storage portion can be folded as shown in FIG. 1 (B). . Therefore, the storage unit is normally folded, and when leaving the storage unit, the storage unit is set in a state in which the small door 3 in FIG. 1A is closed. When the storage section is folded and latched by a spring or the like, the delivery person opens the small door 3 and pushes the back plate 5, the storage section folded as shown in FIG. ) May be set. This frees you from the hassle of having to set the storage part when you are away.

The method of use will be described. The courier delivery person opens the small door 3 by using a key, a secret code, etc.
In the state shown in (A), the luggage is put into the storage through the opening 2 and the small door 3 is closed. The seal may be stored in the storage unit so that the delivery person can imprint it. The family member who came home can open the small door 3 with a key or a personal identification number and take out the delivered package. The back plate 5 may be provided with a lockable door so that the luggage can be taken out from the indoor side.

According to this embodiment, since the luggage can be inserted into the storage portion each time the small door 3 is opened by using the key, the personal identification number or the like, it is possible to receive the luggage a plurality of times.

A mechanism for responding to the opening and closing of the small door may be provided to limit the number of times the small door can be opened and closed to only once, as in the embodiment described later. In this way, it is not necessary to use a key or a personal identification number. In addition, once the courier is received, the small door cannot be opened, which is advantageous for crime prevention.

FIGS. 3A and 3B are for explaining another embodiment of the door with a delivery service according to the present invention. FIG. 3A is a side view in a reception state, and FIG. 3B is a side view in a folded state. It is a figure. In the figure, the same parts as those in FIG. Reference numeral 10 is an inner lid, and 11 is an arm for opening and closing the storage portion. In this embodiment, the reception can be performed twice. Moreover, since the number of times the small door 3 is opened and closed is limited to two, it is not necessary to use a key or a personal identification number.

Can not be opened, which is advantageous for crime prevention.

The counting mechanism of FIG. 6 will be described in more detail with reference to FIG. In the figure, the same parts as those in FIG. 6 are designated by the same reference numerals and the description thereof will be omitted. In the initial state, the counting arm 22 is located below the first counting piece 25a as shown in the side view of FIG. 7A and the front view of FIG. 7B. The holding cylinder 24 is, as shown in FIG.
A groove 24a is cut in a part in parallel with the axial direction, and the lock rod 23 is fitted in the center hole. Further, as can be seen from FIG. 6, the first counting piece 25a and the second counting piece 25b are rotatably mounted in a groove provided so as to penetrate the lock rod 23. The small door is opened,
When the count arm 22 retreats to the position shown in FIG. 7D, the lock rod 23 slightly lowers due to its own weight, but the tip of the first counting piece 25a (the tip on the side facing the count arm 22) is held. Riding on the cylinder 24, the lock rod 23
Is prevented from falling.

When the small door is closed and the counting arm 22 moves forward, the tip of the first counting piece 25a is pushed,
As shown in FIG. 7 (E), the tip of the first counting piece 25 a is rotated to a position where it is removed from the upper end surface of the holding cylinder 24.
As a result, the lock rod 23 is lowered by its own weight, and FIG.
