ABSTRACT:
A lobby table (10) for use in a post office lobby is described. The lobby table has lockable boxes (14) which are mounted together and spaced apart by front and back horizontal spacers (64 and 66). A counter top (12) is mounted on the uppermost horizontal row of lockable boxes and is supported by the underlying lockable boxes. The lockable boxes have a top wall (14A), a bottom wall (14B) and two sidewalls (14C) which form a front opening (14D) which allows access to the interior of the lockable box. The perimeter of the front opening is surrounded by a frame (30) formed by a top frame member (32), a bottom frame member (34), a right frame member (36) and a left frame member (38). The lockable box can also be provided with a central wall and a center frame member (42) in order to provide right and left small boxes (24 and 26). The frame members add aesthetic qualities to the front of the lobby table as well as providing mounting support for the doors (48 and 50) and support for the side panels (76) of the lobby table. Vertical T-moldings (60) which are inserted between the flanges (36A and 38B) of the right and left frame members also add aesthetic qualities to the lobby table. The lobby table is supported by a base (70) having a bottom panel (72) and a pedestal (74). The bottom panel is spaced from the lowermost horizontal row of lockable boxes by horizontal spacers. The back openings of the lockable boxes is covered by a back panel which slides under the back flanges (76D) of the side panels. The lobby table also has a side desk (78) which has a desk top (80) supported on a support shell (82). The support shell consists of an outer leg and a back which act together with one of the side panels of the lobby table to form an open front. The desk top of the side desk is spaced below the counter top of the lobby table in order to enable handicap persons in a wheelchair to use the desk top.
