Since the item stored in the locker by the customer is shielded by the door, the customer can temporarily store the item without being exposed to the eyes of a third party.

Coin lockers have a storage period for goods to allow a large number of customers to use the lockers widely, and an excess fee will be collected if a predetermined date and time has passed. There are coin lockers that have a setting mechanism in the lock (Japanese Patent Publication No. 61-5200, Japanese Utility Model No. 61-1183).
(See Publication No. 1).

However, some of the customers are unscrupulous who leave dangerous, spoiled, or disused items in the locker for a long time.
The storage manager of the coin locker unlocks the locker door with a master key and regularly inspects items stored for a long time.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

Since this inspection work must be repeated for each locker, such as unlocking, opening, closing, and locking operations, the inspection work is a repetitive labor that is troublesome for an administrator who inspects many lockers, and is inefficient. Met.

The present invention has been made to solve such a problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a coin locker that can inspect items stored in a locker extremely easily.

[Means for Solving the Problems]

In order to achieve the above object, in the coin locker of the present invention, the coin locker is provided with a lamp that is turned on by a switch operation to illuminate the inside, and a door is provided with a half mirror material.

[Action]

When the coin locker storage manager turns on the lamp by operating the switch, the inside of the coin locker is illuminated by the issuing of the lamp, and the manager can see through the article storage case through the half mirror material.

〔Example〕

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

The cross-sectional view of FIG. 1 and the perspective view of FIG. 2 show the main part of a locker shelf in which a plurality of horizontally arranged coin lockers are combined in a plurality of stages in the vertical direction. An article storage room 1 to be stored and a lock storage room 3 adjacent to the article storage room 1 via a partition wall 2 are provided, and a door 5 via a hinge 4 is provided on the opposite side of the article storage room 1 from the lock storage room 3.
Is installed.

A locker lock case 6 is fitted in the lock storage chamber 3 and locked by a known technical means.

As shown in the front view of FIG. 3, the case 6 of the locker lock is provided with a coin insertion slot 8, a manual fee setting lock 9, a usage status display window 10, a coin return slot 11 and the like on a front cover 7 on the front side. This is the same as before (Japanese Patent Publication Sho 61-5200)
Japanese Patent Publication No. 61-11831), the present invention further includes a switch 12 operated by a key.

As shown in the side view of FIG. 4, a lamp 13 that is turned on by operating the switch 12 is provided on the side surface of the case 6.

Reference numeral 14 is a locking rod provided so as to be retractable from the side surface of the case 6, and is engaged with a locking hole 15 provided on the end surface of the door 5 when the door 5 is closed as shown in FIG. The door 5 is locked.

When the case 6 is inserted and locked in the lock accommodating chamber 3, a hole 16 is formed in the partition wall 2 at a position facing the lamp 13, and when the lamp 13 is turned on, the inside of the article storage chamber 1 is illuminated. .

The door 5 is provided with an inspection window 17 substantially in the center thereof, and a plate-shaped half mirror material 18 covering the inspection window 17 is applied to the inner surface of the door 5, and both ends of the half mirror material 18 are It is held by the holding plates 20 and 20 fixed to the inner side surface of the screw 5 by screws 19 and the door 5.

The screws 21 inserted into the holding plates 20 and 20 and screwed into the door 5 are provided to prevent the half mirror material 18 from coming out upward.

A half mirror is a glass coated with a reflective film on both sides to have a certain mirror surface effect, and it is possible to obtain an image reflection and perspective effect due to the difference in brightness between the front surface and the back surface.
When viewed from the bright side to the dark side, it becomes a mirror, and conversely, when viewed from the dark side to the bright side, it has a characteristic of being transparent.

A handle 22 is attached to the end of the surface of the door 5.

The cross-sectional view of the main part of FIG. 5 and the perspective view of the parts of FIG. 6 show the second embodiment of the present invention.
It is composed of.

In the same drawing, hinge plates 24, 24 are applied to the front surface and the back surface on one side of the plate-shaped half mirror material 23, and the tips of bolts 25 inserted into the holes provided in the half mirror material 23 and both hinge plates 24. The nut 26 is screwed together and assembled integrally, and the hinge plate 24 on the rocker surface side is hinged.
It is attached to the case 27 of the locker via 24.

On the other side of the half mirror material 23, a reinforcing plate 28 is applied to the back surface of the half mirror material 23, and on the surface of the half mirror material 23, a latch plate 29 having a locking hole 15, a reinforcing plate 30, and a handle 31. The bolt 32, which is applied to the back surface of the handle 31, is inserted into the holes of the reinforcing plate 30, the latch plate 29, the half mirror material 23, and the reinforcing plate 28, and then the nut 33 is screwed to be integrally assembled. wear.

Next, the operation of the coin locker configured as above will be described based on the first embodiment.

When an article is stored in the article storage room 1 and the door 5 is closed and locked, the inside of the article storage room 1 is darker than the outside of the coin locker, and therefore the inside of the coin locker cannot be seen through. You can leave it.

When a certain period of time has passed while the goods are stored, the manager of the coin locker needs to inspect the stored goods.

When the manager inserts a key into the switch 12 of the locker requiring inspection and operates it, the lamp 13 lights up and the article storage room 1 is illuminated brighter than the outside of the locker. You can see through and inspect.

When the inspection is over, the key can be removed from the switch 12, and the above-described inspection operation can be repeated to efficiently inspect the insides of many rockers.

In the case of the second embodiment, since the entire surface of the door can be seen through the lighting of the lamp 13, there is an advantage that the stored articles can be inspected more easily.

Also, the switches that turn on the lamps 13 are integrated in one place outside the coin locker, and the lighting of the lockers that need inspection is centrally controlled and performed at one time. It may be turned off.

[Effect of device]

Since the present invention is configured as described above, it has the effects described below.

(1) Stored items can be inspected without opening the door by simply operating a switch, so the repeated operations of unlocking, opening, closing, and locking, which are required in the past, are not required, and the administrator is freed from troublesome labor.
