ABSTRACT:
A rockable customer operated door for a chute to a safe type receptacle as in a bank for receiving parcels and/or envelopes, which door may be unlocked by a key, and when opened exposes a pocket into which a parcel or letter may be dropped, and which during the manual closing of the door, a pivoted wall of the pocket ejects the contents thereof into the chute. Spring urged lever and ratchet means control the movement of the pocket wall to not only eject its contents but to scrape the walls thereof as well as to prevent reversing movement of the door intermediate the ends of its travel. Movable trunnion pivots for the door are provided for removing the door for repairs to its mechanism. The lever means pivoted to the door is provided with pins that cooperate with the ratchet means which is pivoted to the frame for the door that is rigidly mounted in the opening of the chute. Stops and toggle means are provided for controlling and limiting the movement of the door, the movable pocket wall, and the lever means. The key lock for the door comprises a pinion for a rack type bolt.
