Abstract

L'invention concerne un réceptacle postal (2, 64, 88) ouvert en direction du haut, utilisé pour transporter des envois postaux (14), qui présente des parois latérales (4, 6) et une face inférieure. Ledit dispositif comporte un moyen de levage (36, 52, 74, 100) pour déplacer les envois postaux (14) par rapport aux parois latérales (4, 6). Afin de pouvoir vider, de manière plus avantageuse et efficace en termes d'ergonomie, un réceptacle postal (2, 64, 88) de son contenu, par exemple des lettres, sans altérer pour autant sa stabilité mécanique, il est prévu que le moyen de levage (36, 52, 74, 100) puisse passer à travers la face inférieure du réceptacle.
