The present invention relates to a box, particularly a mailbox comprising a lid, detecting means and indicating means for detecting and indicating the presence of one or more objects, such as letters and newspapers. The detecting means comprises a pivotally mounted member (30) which is coupled to the lid (7) of the box, via a transmission (60-67), for moving the pivotally mounted member (30) from an initial position in response to the opening of the lid (7). The pivotally mounted member (30) is arranged to automatically return to its initial position as the lid (7) is closed, if no object is present in the box. If an object is present in the box, the pivotally mounted member (30) is prevented from returning to its initial position, in which position the pivotally mounted member (30) is so arranged and positioned that it activates the indicating means (10).

Le système de détection comprend un élément pivotant (30) relié au couvercle (7) de la boîte par l'intermédiaire d'une transmission (60-67) pour faire quitter à l'élément pivotant (30) sa position initiale sous l'effet de l'ouverture du couvercle (7). L'élément pivotant (30) est conçu pour reprendre automatiquement sa position initiale quand le couvercle (7) est fermé, s'il n'y a aucun objet dans la boîte. S'il y en a un, l'élément pivotant (30) est empêché de reprendre sa position initiale, ledit élément pivotant (30) étant conçu et positionné de telle façon qu'il fasse fonctionner le dispositif indicateur (10).
