ABSTRACT:
An open but secure kiosk, anchored in the ground, for a full service travel center in an indoor commercial public area is, in one embodiment, substantially rectangular with a small square area removed from each corner and has vertical corner beams, an upper wall portion defined by at least two parallel double upper cross-beams running along the entire upper perimeter of the kiosk, a lower wall portion along the entire lower perimeter of the kiosk directly below the upper wall portion constructed of continuous solid block roughly three feet in height and including the upright side wall of customer counters that form the two longer sides of the kiosk. There are also ceiling cross-beams. Movable grates above the counters close downward and seal the long side walls and there are bright signs at the top of the long walls. The working area is enclosed by the shorter walls and the inside of the main counters, one of which has an entrance section and both of which may contain on their surface transparent openings to view computer screens situated below. Fixed seats are provided for serving customers outside customer counters. The two parallel shorter walls are transparent glass or plastic, provide for bright signs at their tops and have at a lower portion interior side counters for displaying items. At the corners, the cross-beams have video monitors attached thereto. The ceiling, inaccessible from higher floors, has an optional transparent cover.
