摘要

The robust and watertight housing (1) is fixed by a bracket (2) to the handlebar (3) of a delivery bicycle. The housing contains a microcomputer chip (4), memory (5), rechargeable battery (6), read-out display (7), operating keys (8) and external connector (9). At the distribution centre, the memory of the unit is preloaded with data from a central computer. The data can be about the next delivery round, e.g. tiles and number of publications to be delivered to each address in turn.
