Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a parcel locker, specifically a reinforced plastic parcel locker, and belongs to the field of parcel locker technology. Background Technology
[0002] A parcel locker (also known as a smart parcel locker or self-service locker) is an intelligent self-service parcel collection and delivery device installed in public places (such as residential communities, office buildings, campuses, and near convenience stores). Utilizing IoT technology and automated control, it provides couriers with a safe and convenient parcel drop-off service, while allowing recipients to pick up their packages at any time, 24 hours a day, solving the pain points of traditional parcel delivery such as "the recipient is not home" and "time mismatch." The entire physical shell of the locker is usually made of metal (such as steel plate). The interior is divided into individual small spaces for storing packages. The compartments come in different sizes (small, medium, large, extra-large, and even refrigerated compartments) to meet the needs of packages of different sizes. Each compartment has an independent lock.
[0003] Traditional parcel lockers rely heavily on bolts or welding to connect the base, locker units, and top cover. This method is not only cumbersome and time-consuming to assemble on-site, requiring highly skilled installers, but also presents challenges in disassembly and maintenance, leading to high costs when repairs, replacements, or relocation are needed. Existing designs often require complex connectors or welded brackets to the locker, making installation inconvenient; alternatively, reinforcing bars can only connect individual or a few lockers in sections, failing to create a rigid, continuous support across the entire stack height, thus limiting their reinforcement effectiveness and failing to fully utilize the mechanical properties of the reinforcing bars. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a reinforced plastic express cabinet to solve the above-mentioned problems. The square tube grooves set on the sides of multiple cabinets can be used to insert square tubes, and the fixing holes on the square tubes can be inserted into the fixing posts inside the square tube grooves to achieve initial fixation of the square tubes. By passing screws through the fixing holes and then threadedly connecting them to the fixing posts, the square tubes can be fixedly connected to the cabinets. Since the length of the square tube is the same as the height of the multiple cabinets stacked together, that is, the multiple cabinets are connected by a whole square tube, thereby strengthening the connection stability between the multiple cabinets.
[0005] This utility model achieves the above-mentioned objectives through the following technical solution: a reinforced plastic express cabinet includes a base, a cabinet body installed at the top of the base, a cabinet door rotatably connected to the front end of the cabinet body via a pivot, side panels installed on both sides of the cabinet body, a top plate installed at the top of the cabinet body, multiple cabinet bodies being provided, positioning sleeves provided at the top of the base and cabinet bodies, and positioning posts provided at the bottom of the top plate and cabinet bodies.

Four positioning posts are provided on the bottom of the cabinet and the top plate, and the four positioning posts are respectively located at the four corners of the bottom of the top plate and the cabinet.
[0008] Preferably, two parallel square tube slots are provided on each side of the cabinet. Each square tube slot has two fixing posts inside. The square tube has multiple fixing holes and is inserted into the fixing posts through the fixing holes. Multiple cabinets are connected by the square tube through the screw threaded through the fixing holes and the fixing posts.
[0009] Preferably, a first locking sleeve is fixedly connected to each of the four bottom corners of the cabinet, and a second locking sleeve is fixedly connected to each of the four top corners of the cabinet. A groove is provided on the side of the second locking sleeve for the first locking sleeve to be inserted. After the first locking sleeve is inserted into the groove, the first locking sleeve and the second locking sleeve are fixed by screws.
[0010] Preferably, the side wall of the cabinet is provided with multiple buckle grooves, and multiple buckles are correspondingly provided on the side wall of the side panel. The side panel is fixed by the buckles being inserted into the buckle grooves and engaging.
[0011] Preferably, the base has multiple reinforcing ribs inside.
[0012] Preferably, the base has a counterweight groove inside, and a mounting plate with mounting holes is installed in the mounting groove inside the base. The mounting plate is made of iron.

[0014] Preferably, a photovoltaic power generation system is installed on the top of the top plate.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The base, cabinet body, and top plate are stacked and installed by inserting positioning sleeves and positioning posts, which not only facilitates the quick installation of the express cabinet but also facilitates subsequent disassembly and maintenance. The square tube slots set on the sides of multiple cabinet bodies can be used to insert square tubes, and the fixing holes on the square tubes can be inserted into the fixing posts inside the square tube slots to achieve initial fixing of the square tubes. By passing screws through the fixing holes and then threadedly connecting them to the fixing posts, the square tubes can be fixedly connected to the cabinet bodies. Since the length of the square tube is the same as the height of the multiple cabinet bodies stacked together, that is, multiple cabinet bodies are connected by a whole square tube, which can enhance the connection stability between multiple cabinet bodies. A counterweight slot is set inside the base, which can be used to hold water or sand for counterweight, thereby increasing the overall stability of the cabinet. An installation plate is placed inside the installation slot inside the base. The installation plate is made of iron and has two installation holes. Screws are driven into the installation plate to fix it to the ground, increasing the installation strength of the express cabinet. Attached Figure Description
