US Patent 10492636 Secure delivery system

A package delivery system wherein packages are distributed through a distribution center's deliverymen. Badges are worn by the deliverymen. The badges include an electronic identifier identifying the deliveryman as well as the company/distribution center, that employs them. On approaching the building's receptacle, the signal from the badge allows the receptacle's locking mechanism to be functional; thereby allowing only authorized deliverymen to gain access to the interior of the receptacle.
