Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of express delivery cabinets, and in particular relates to a mobile express delivery cabinet with a changeable layout. Background Art
[0002] Currently, there are two main modes of express delivery: door-to-door delivery by couriers and self-pickup by users. Among them, the self-pickup mode, led by smart express lockers, is becoming increasingly popular. Self-service express lockers are very convenient to use. The courier puts the express package into the locker, and the user can verify the locker by using a pickup verification code or scanning a QR code. Existing express lockers are generally fixedly installed in various residential areas or inside office buildings. The fixed installation method is generally a direct fixed connection to the ground. Its disadvantage is that this fixing method makes it impossible to quickly transport and replace the express locker in time when it is damaged, which in turn affects the customer's use and experience. In the event of an emergency such as a power outage or power line maintenance, the locker will become unusable. Utility Model Content
