Abstract

Die vorliegende Erfindung beschreibt einen diebstahlgesicherten Briefkasten bestehend aus einem Brieffach und einem mit einem Schliessmechanismus (20,21,22) versehenen Paketfach. Das Paketfach ist mit einer mechanischen Zusatzvorrichtung versehen und ist nach der Leerung durch den Besitzer und nachfolgendem Schliessen nicht mehr verriegelt, kann also durch einen Paketboten geöffnet werden. Sobald das Paketfach wieder geschlossen wird, ist das Paketfach mechanisch verriegelt und kann ausschliesslich durch Öffnen des Brieffachs mittels des Schliessmechanismus entriegelt und geöffnet werden.The present invention describes an anti-theft mailbox consisting of a letter box and a package compartment provided with a closing mechanism (20, 21, 22). The parcel compartment is provided with a mechanical attachment and is not locked after emptying by the owner and subsequent closure, so it can be opened by a parcel courier. Once the parcel compartment is closed again, the parcel compartment is mechanically locked and can be unlocked and opened exclusively by opening the letter compartment by means of the closing mechanism.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Verriegelung des Paketfachs eines Briefkastens nach dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 sowie eine Verwendung der Vorrichtung.The present invention relates to a device for locking the parcel compartment of a mailbox according to the preamble of claim 1 and a use of the device.

Es gibt eine Vielzahl von Vorrichtungen zur Aufnahme von Briefen und Zeitungen sowie von Paketen, allgemein bekannt als Hausbriefkästen. In der DIN 32617 sind die Mindestanforderungen festgelegt, um die Verwendung ausreichend grosser und funktionsfähiger Hausbriefkästen zu standardisieren. Es soll beispielsweise neben dem Format DIN C4 quer auch noch die Zeitung in den Briefkasten passen, und die Norm legt auch die Kastentiefe fest. Ein Diebstahlschutz für eingelegte Pakete wird nicht erwähnt.There are a variety of devices for holding letters and newspapers as well as parcels, commonly known as home mailboxes. In DIN 32617, the minimum requirements are specified in order to standardize the use of sufficiently large and functional in-house mailboxes. It should, for example, in addition to the format DIN C4 across even the newspaper in the mailbox fit, and the standard specifies the depth of the box. A theft protection for inserted packages is not mentioned.

Der Kauf von Waren über das Internet und damit verbunden die Auslieferung der Waren über Paketlieferdienste wie beispielsweise die Post oder Kuriere hat in den letzten Jahren massiv zugenommen. Falls der Warenwert solcher Pakete eher gering ist, werden die Pakete aus Kostengründen nicht eingeschrieben versandt und durch den zustellenden Post- oder Paketboten im Paketfach des Briefkastens deponiert, ohne Benachrichtigung des Empfängers. Da in der Regel nur das Brieffach durch ein Schloss abgesichert ist, besteht bei einem frei zugänglichen Paketfach die Gefahr, dass ein Paket vor der Entleerung des Briefkastens durch den Empfänger von einer dritten Person gestohlen wird.The purchase of goods via the Internet and the associated delivery of goods via parcel delivery services such as mail or couriers has increased massively in recent years. If the value of such packages is rather low, the packages will not be sent by registered mail and deposited by the delivering postman or parcel courier in the parcel compartment of the mailbox, without any notification of the recipient. Since usually only the letter box is secured by a lock, there is the danger in a freely accessible parcel compartment that a parcel is stolen by a third person before the emptying of the mailbox by the recipient.

Es gibt verschiedene Lösungen zum Verriegeln eines Paketfachs und damit zum Schutz vor unerlaubtem Zugriff durch Dritte. So wird beispielsweise in der Patentschrift CH 597 809 ein Briefkasten mit zwei Fächern beschrieben, der nach Einlegen eines Paketes verriegelt wird. Die Entriegelung beider Fächer erfolgt durch das gemeinsame Schloss des Brieffachs. Die Nachteile der vorgeschlagenen Lösung sind die aufwändige Mechanik, die auch einen alternden Federmechanismus enthält, sowie die eher komplizierte Handhabung durch den Anwender.There are various solutions for locking a parcel compartment and thus for protection against unauthorized access by third parties. For example, in the patent CH 597 809 describes a mailbox with two compartments, which is locked after inserting a package. The unlocking of both compartments is done by the common lock of the letter compartment. The disadvantages of the proposed solution are the complex mechanism, which also contains an aging spring mechanism, and the rather complicated handling by the user.

In der Offenlegungsschrift des Deutschen Patentamtes mit der Nummer DE 198 23 312 A1 wird eine Vorrichtung mit automatischer mechanischer Diebstahlsicherung beschrieben, bei welcher das Paketfach aufgrund des Paketgewichts verriegelt wird und dann nur noch mittels Schlüssel zu öffnen ist. Diese Lösung funktioniert nicht bei leichten Paketen und basiert zudem auf Federn, deren Kraft nach ein paar Jahren nachlassen und eine Wartung notwendig machen.In the publication of the German Patent Office with the number DE 198 23 312 A1 a device with automatic mechanical anti-theft device is described in which the parcel compartment is locked due to the package weight and then can only be opened by means of a key. This solution does not work on lightweight packages and is based on springs that lose their power after a few years and require maintenance.

Die internationale Anmeldung WO 2012/084433 A1 beschreibt eine Paketbox zur diebstahlsicheren Aufbewahrung von Paketen. Die Verriegelung erfolgt wiederum aufgrund des Paketgewichts. Nachteilig bei dieser Lösung sind die aufwändige mechanische Konstruktion, die Abhängigkeit vom Paketgewicht und allenfalls dessen Form, sowie die notwendige Wartung aufgrund der stark beanspruchten Schnur. Bekannt ist weiter eine in der Europäischen Patentschrift EP 2 241 226 A1 beschriebene Box zur diebstahlgesicherten Aufnahme und Aufbewahrung von Paketen. Wiederum ist die Mechanik recht aufwändig und die Funktion abhängig vom Gewicht und allenfalls der Paketform.The international application WO 2012/084433 A1 describes a parcel box for theft-proof storage of parcels. The locking is again due to the package weight. The disadvantage of this solution are the complex mechanical design, the dependency on the package weight and possibly its shape, and the necessary maintenance due to the highly stressed cord. A further is known in the European patent specification EP 2 241 226 A1 described box for theft-proof Collection and storage of parcels. Again, the mechanics are quite complex and the function depends on the weight and possibly the package form.

In der Patentschrift CH 597 810 werden vier Lösungen zur Verriegelung eines Paketfachs beschrieben. Diese sind aber alle relativ aufwändig und entweder vom Gewicht oder von der Grösse des Pakets abhängig. Das Paketfach muss bei drei Varianten durch einen Knopf im Brieffach entriegelt werden, bei der vierten Variante geschieht dies automatisch beim Öffnen des Brieffachs.In the patent CH 597 810 Four solutions for locking a parcel compartment are described. However, these are all relatively complex and dependent on either the weight or the size of the package. The package compartment must be unlocked in three variants by a button in the letter box, in the fourth variant, this happens automatically when opening the letter compartment.

Wichtige Kriterien für Briefkästen mit Brieffach und Paketfach sind Sicherheit gegen Diebstahl, einfache Konstruktion, kostengünstige Herstellung und Montage, möglichst keine während der Lebensdauer zu ersetzenden Verschleissteile und ganz wichtig: Die einfache Bedienung durch den Besitzer und den Postboten. Alle bekannten Briefkästen, wie oben erwähnt, genügen diesen Kriterien nur teilweise oder aber in ungenügender Weise.Important criteria for mailboxes with letter box and parcel compartment are security against theft, simple construction, cost-effective production and assembly, if possible no wear parts to be replaced during the lifetime and very important: The simple operation by the owner and the postman. All known mailboxes, as mentioned above, satisfy these criteria only partially or inadequately.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zu Grunde, eine Vorrichtung anzugeben, bei dem die vorstehend genannten Nachteile eliminiert sind.The present invention is therefore based on the object to provide a device in which the aforementioned disadvantages are eliminated.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die in Anspruch 2 angegebenen Merkmale gelöst. Eine vorteilhafte Ausführungsvariante ist in den abhängigen Ansprüchen angegeben.This object is achieved by the features specified in claim 2. An advantageous embodiment is specified in the dependent claims.

Die hier vorgestellte Erfindung erlaubt das kostengünstige Herstellen eines diebstahlgesicherten Briefkastens mit zwei Fächern. Die Mechanik ist bewusst einfach ausgelegt. So werden für die Konstruktion ausschliesslich günstige Standard-Profile eingesetzt und es wird bewusst darauf geachtet, dass diese nach Möglichkeit nur einseitig bearbeitet werden müssen. Für die einfache Montage werden keine komplizierten Werkzeuge und Vorrichtungen benötigt.The invention presented here allows the cost-effective production of a theft-proof mailbox with two compartments. The mechanics are intentionally simple. For example, only low-cost standard profiles are used for the construction, and care is taken to ensure that they only have to be processed on one side if possible. For easy installation no complicated tools and devices are needed.

Um die Unterhaltskosten tief zu halten, weist die erfindungsgemässe Vorrichtung weiterhin den Vorteil auf, dass insbesondere keine Verschleissteile wie beispielsweise Federn verwendet werden, welche im Laufe der Lebensdauer eines Briefkastens allenfalls zu ersetzen wären.In order to keep the maintenance costs low, the device according to the invention also has the advantage that, in particular, no wearing parts such as, for example, springs are used, which at most would have to be replaced over the lifetime of a mailbox.

Insgesamt ergibt sich mit der hier vorgestellten Erfindung ein Schutz gegen Diebstahl von ausgelieferten Paketen bei geringen Herstellkosten, geringen Montagekosten und praktisch keinen Service- und Unterhaltskosten. Ebenso ist gegenüber einem herkömmlichen Briefkasten keine zusätzliche Bedienung notwendig. Der Mechanismus funktioniert unabhängig von Grösse und Gewicht des Pakets.Overall, with the invention presented here, a protection against theft of delivered packages at low production costs, low installation costs and virtually no service and maintenance costs. Similarly, compared to a conventional mailbox no additional operation is necessary. The mechanism works regardless of the size and weight of the package.

Fig. 1 zeigt in schematischer Darstellung die Bestandteile eines erfinderischen Briefkastens, insbesondere ein langes Profil 1, dessen unteres Ende in die Führungsplatten 2 ragt. Nicht gezeichnet ist hier die zweite Führungsplatte, welche spiegelsymmetrisch zur ersten aufgebaut ist. In Fig. 2 sind beide Führungsplatten dargestellt. Am unteren Ende des Profils 1 ist ein Pendelhalter 7 angebracht, an dem das Pendel 6 frei drehbar ist. Der untere Zapfen des Pendels, 6b, ragt in die Vertiefungen 5 der Führungsplatten 2. Die Distanzhalter 3a resp. 3b positionieren die beiden Führungsplatten. Der Haken 4 ist an der Türe des Paketfachs angebracht und befindet sich bei geschlossener Türe zwischen den Führungsplatten. Die Stifte 8 begrenzen die unterste Position des Profils 1 in den Führungsplatten. Der Bolzen 11 wird beispielsweise aber nicht ausschliesslich durch das Öffnen des Schlosses 9 und der damit verbundenen Bewegung des Hebels 10 angehoben.
Ohne die erfinderische Idee zu verlassen kann die konstruktive Ausgestaltung zur Anhebung des Profils 1 auch von der hier gezeigten konstruktiven Lösung abweichen. Der gesamte Mechanismus ist im Innern des Briefkastens, vorzugsweise an der Seitenwand montiert. Fig. 1 shows a schematic representation of the components of an inventive mailbox, in particular a long profile 1, the lower end protrudes into the guide plates 2. Not drawn here is the second guide plate, which is constructed mirror-symmetrically to the first. In Fig. 2 both guide plates are shown. At the lower end of the profile 1, a pendulum holder 7 is attached, on which the pendulum 6 is freely rotatable. The lower pin of the pendulum, 6b, projects into the recesses 5 of the guide plates 2. The spacers 3a resp. 3b position the two guide plates. The hook 4 is attached to the door of the parcel compartment and is located with the door closed between the guide plates. The pins 8 limit the lowest position of the profile 1 in the guide plates. However, the bolt 11 is not raised, for example, only by the opening of the lock 9 and the associated movement of the lever 10.
Without departing from the inventive idea, the structural design for raising the profile 1 may also differ from the constructive solution shown here. The entire mechanism is mounted inside the mailbox, preferably on the side wall.

Fig. 2 zeigt den Mechanismus, eingebaut in einem Briefkasten. Damit der Einbau gut zu erkennen ist, wurde hier ein sehr kleiner Briefkasten gezeichnet. Der Mechanismus wird beispielsweise mit einer Abstandsplatte 12 an der Innenwand montiert, der Haken 4 an der PaketfachTüre 13. Der Griff 14 an der Paketfachtüre dient hier nur der Illustration. Die Brieffachtüre 15 trägt das Schloss mit dem Bolzen. Fig. 2 shows the mechanism, installed in a mailbox. So that the installation is easy to recognize, a very small letterbox was drawn here. The mechanism is mounted, for example with a spacer plate 12 on the inner wall, the hook 4 on the PaketfachTüre 13. The handle 14 on the parcel compartment door is here only for illustration. The mailbox door 15 carries the lock with the bolt.

Die Fig. 3 bis 8 zeigen verschiedene Phasen beim Öffnen und Schliessen des Brieffachs respektive des Paketfachs eines erfinderischen Briefkastens.The Fig. 3 to 8 show different phases in the opening and closing of the letter compartment respectively the parcel compartment of an inventive mailbox.

Fig. 3 zeigt die Situation bei geschlossenem Brief- und Paketfach, vor dem Einlegen eines Pakets. Beispielsweise kann ein Kurier nun ein Paket zustellen.
Der Zapfen des Pendels 6 liegt auf der Ebene der Vertiefung 5 und trägt das Profil 1, der Haken 4 befindet sich hinter dem Pendel. Fig. 3 shows the situation with the letter and parcel compartment closed, before inserting a parcel. For example, a courier can now deliver a package.
The pin of the pendulum 6 is located on the level of the recess 5 and carries the profile 1, the hook 4 is located behind the pendulum.

Fig. 4 zeigt, was beim ersten Öffnen des Paketfachs, beispielsweise durch einen Kurier, geschieht. Der Haken 4 wird in Pfeilrichtung bewegt und nimmt das Pendel 6 mit, das Profil 1 fällt runter. Fig. 4 shows what happens the first time the parcel compartment is opened, for example by a courier. The hook 4 is moved in the direction of the arrow and takes the pendulum 6, the profile 1 falls down.

In Fig. 5 wurde das Paketfach vollständig geöffnet, das Profil 1 liegt auf dessen Stiften 8 auf und das Pendel 6 ist gekippt. Beispielsweise legt ein Kurier nun Ware in das Paketfach. Beim nachfolgenden Schliessen des Paketfachs gleitet der Haken 4 in Pfeilrichtung unter dem Pendel, dem Pendelhalter und dem Profil 1 durch, welche dabei leicht angehoben werden.In Fig. 5 the parcel compartment was fully opened, the profile 1 rests on its pins 8 and the pendulum 6 is tilted. For example, a courier now places goods in the parcel compartment. During the subsequent closing of the parcel compartment, the hook 4 slides in the direction of the arrow below the pendulum, the pendulum holder and the profile 1, which are slightly raised in the process.

Fig. 6 zeigt das nun abgesperrte Paketfach. Beim Versuch, dieses zu öffnen, steht der Haken 4 am Profil 1 an. Es kann nur durch das Öffnen des Brieffachs entsperrt werden. Fig. 6 shows the now locked package tray. When trying to open this, the hook 4 is on profile 1. It can only be unlocked by opening the letter compartment.

Es versteht sich, dass nicht zwingend ein Gegenstand im Paketfach deponiert werden muss, um das Paketfach zu verriegeln.It is understood that not necessarily an item must be deposited in the parcel compartment to lock the parcel compartment.

Fig. 7 zeigt die Entriegelung des Paketfachs beim Öffnen des Brieffachs durch den Besitzer. Durch den Bolzen 11 am Schloss 9 des Brieffachs wird das Profil 1 nach oben gezogen und die Türe des Paketfachs kann dank des freigegebenen Hakens 4 geöffnet werden. Fig. 7 shows the unlocking of the parcel compartment when opening the letter compartment by the owner. By the bolt 11 on the lock 9 of the letter Tray the profile 1 is pulled up and the door of the parcel compartment can be opened thanks to the released hook 4.

Fig. 8 zeigt das Paketfach nach dem Schliessen des Brieffachs mit dem Schloss 9, bei darauffolgendem Schliessen des Paketfachs. Der Haken 4 gleitet dabei unter dem Pendel 6 hindurch. Die Vorrichtung befindet sich damit wieder in der Position gemäss Fig. 3. Dieselbe Position wird erreicht, wenn das Paketfach vor dem Brieffach geschlossen oder gar nicht geöffnet wird. Fig. 8 shows the parcel compartment after closing the letter compartment with the lock 9, with subsequent closing of the parcel compartment. The hook 4 slides under the pendulum 6 through. The device is thus again in the position according to Fig. 3 , The same position is achieved if the parcel compartment is closed or not opened in front of the letter compartment.
