Description
- This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 61/476,967, filed Apr. 19, 2011.
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention generally relates to security systems, and particularly to a security receptacle for packages applicable for receiving and securing a delivered package(s) therein.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- There are times when no one is at home or in the office to receive a package delivered by a delivery company (US Postal Service, Federal Express, United Parcel Service, etc.). In many instances delivery personnel will not leave the package in an unsecured area, but instead will leave a form indicating when the package will be redelivered or where the package may be picked up. Both scenarios can result in time-consuming delays, increased financial expenditures, and considerable angst if the contents of the package are needed immediately. There is a need for some means for leaving the package in a secure arrangement, thereby negating the need for redelivery or pickup. Thus, a security receptacle for packages solving the aforementioned problems is desired.
- The security receptacle for packages comprises a receptacle that provides protection for delivered packages and parcels. The receptacle is fabricated from a flexible, weather-resistant, cut-resistant material capable of expanding to accommodate variously sized packages. A lockable, zippered top is provided to securely close the receptacle. The bottom of the receptacle is adapted to accommodate a cable lock to secure the container to a stationary object. A facility is provided to store the receptacle when not in use.
- Accordingly, the invention presents a secure system that eliminates the need for return trips by delivery personnel. The invention includes a receptacle that provides reduced risk of loss of unattended delivered items. The receptacle is rugged, durable, weather-resistant and expandable. The invention provides for improved elements thereof in an arrangement for the purposes described that are inexpensive, dependable and fully effective in accomplishing their intended purposes.
- These and other features of the present invention will become readily apparent upon further review of the following specification and drawings.
-
FIG. 1 is an environmental, perspective view of a security receptacle for packages according to the present invention. -
FIG. 2 is a partial perspective view showing details of the bottom half of the security receptacle for packages ofFIG. 1 . -
FIG. 3 is a partial perspective view showing details of the top half of a second embodiment of a security receptacle for packages according to the present invention. -
FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing details of a storage facility for a security receptacle for packages according to the present invention. -
FIG. 5 is a top view of a third embodiment of a security receptacle for packages according to the present invention. -
FIG. 6 is a side view of the security receptacle ofFIG. 5 . - Similar reference characters denote corresponding features consistently throughout the attached drawings.
- Referring to
FIGS. 1 and 2 , the security system forpackages 10 comprises asecurity receptacle 12 fabricated from a rugged, flexible, weather and cut-resistant fabric. Thereceptacle 12 is designed with a closed bottom and an open top. Aflexible rubber pad 14 defines the base of thereceptacle 12 and is attached to the bottom thereof by bonding or the like. A plurality offlaps 16 are arranged to close the open top of thereceptacle 12. A heavy-duty zipper system 18 functions to fasten theflaps 16 in the closed position. Aconventional lock 20 secures the zipper tabs in the closed position. Atunnel 22 is formed on the outer surface of thereceptacle 12 adjacent the bottom thereof. Thetunnel 22 is fabricated from the same fabric as thereceptacle 12. Although only onetunnel 22 is shown, it is contemplated that a plurality of tunnels could be formed on each side of thereceptacle 12. Thetunnel 22 is adapted to encapsulate a heavy-duty, high-strength, cut-resistant cable 24 therein, Alock 26, which may be a combination lock, a key lock, or any other cable lock known in the art, is provided to attach thecable 24 to a securing object. As illustrated, the securing object may be abracket 28 that can be mounted to a wall or floor utilizing tamper-proof hardware. Thecable 24 may alternatively be attached to some other securing object, such as a doorknob, if desired. - As best seen in
FIG. 3 , the top may be closed by asingle flap 30 having aperipheral zipper 32 around three sides thereof. Ametal latch 34 is fixed to thereceptacle 12 for receiving alock 36 to secure the zipper tab thereto. Printedinstructions 38 for using the system may be attached to the outer surface of theflap 30. A fabric cover may be provided to cover thezipper 32, if desired. - The
receptacle 12 can be rolled for storage when not in use, as shown inFIG. 4 . Astorage bag 40 is provided to receive the rolledreceptacle 12 therein.Brackets 42 may be attached to a wall surface or the like for retaining thereceptacle 12 in its stored state. - Using the security system as described above is very easy. Delivery personnel would simply: (1) remove the
receptacle 12 from storage; (2) insert the package(s) into thereceptacle 12; and (3) close and lock the zipper. - Another embodiment of the invention is illustrated in
FIGS. 5 and 6 . This embodiment employs a system that requires no modification to the home or office premises. Thecable 24 extends through an existing space between a door D and a threshold T or the like. Aroller frame assembly 50 is disposed on an interior surface S (floor, carpet, etc.) adjacent the door D. Theroller frame assembly 50 functions as a securing object. Theroller frame assembly 50 comprises acentral roller 52 and identical adjacentparallel end rollers 53 positioned on opposite sides of thecentral roller 52, Theend rollers 53 are pivotally attached to thecentral roller 53. If the door D is opened and is swept inward, contacting theassembly 50, theassembly 50 would pivot to prevent possible jamming of theassembly 50 between the bottom edge of the door D and the surface S of the floor, which may be carpeted or uncarpeted. The free ends of thecable 24 are removably attached at respective opposite ends of thecentral roller 52. Therollers receptacle 12; and (2) closes the package and locks the zipper. - It is to be understood that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, but encompasses any and all embodiments within the scope of the following claims.
