Since the baggage cannot be stamped unless the baggage is posted and locked, there is no worry that the baggage will be returned with the baggage stamped without the baggage. If both are locked, the baggage removal door and the baggage entrance door will be locked, and the baggage will not be posted. Nevertheless, there will be a slip with only the receipt stamp stamped.Therefore, without returning the luggage, stamping only the receipt stamp and bringing back the luggage, or after posting the luggage, It is possible to minimize the possibility that an act such as bringing back other luggage is performed. In addition, since the seal can be freely stamped during the above-mentioned fixed time, it is possible to post a plurality of packages per one home delivery, and it is not necessary to limit the number that can be posted to one per box as in the past, and once Will be able to handle cases where multiple packages are posted during delivery.

After the mailing and locking of the luggage entrance door, it is not possible to stamp the receipt stamp after a certain period of time, so that it can be stamped every time the luggage entrance door is locked.
In addition, by setting the above-mentioned fixed time to a time that can be stamped by the delivery person, only the delivery person can use the seal of the house. Therefore, there is a concern that only the seal will be performed even though the package has not been delivered, or that a family member or a third party other than the deliverer may use the seal of the house freely due to mischief etc. Disappears. Moreover, since a commercially available seal can be used as a receipt, a detection method using an infrared sensor or the like instead of a conventional seal, a method of putting out perforated paper one by one,
Inconvenience such as in a method of taking out printed matter can be eliminated.
