Description

Stock feed device Description:

The invention relates to a goods carrier such as, for example, a shelf or the like to be arranged

Goods feed device, with a spring-mounted on a profile goods slide for a feed of the goods and the combination of a sales and presentation boxes, a tray, with such a goods feed device.

Goods feed devices are in manifold

Embodiments known and proven. Thus, DE 20 2007 011 927 U1 explains a goods presentation system which is placed on a goods carrier such as a shelf. Front and back of the shelf adapter rails are provided to which a front or end anchors are connected, between which a guide profile for a

spring-operated goods feed device extends.

A compartment divider is connected to the guide profile on one longitudinal side. By juxtaposing a variety

Such goods presentation systems can by the

Divider of separate sets of goods

to get presented. The filling of such

However, goods presentation systems after a goods removal is time-consuming, since the goods isolated in such

Goods presentation systems must be introduced.

Especially in hypermarkets, but also at gas stations or the like, therefore, the sale of a product is increasingly made directly from a sales or a

Presentation board, a tray that is easily replaced by a new, filled tray after a complete removal of goods. To ensure that all goods are also in a tray front of a goods carrier or

Buyers can be easily taken, trays come in

Combination with fabric feeders for use. Such a combination of tray and WarenvorSububvorrichtung is explained in EP 0987971 AI. The tray described therein has an opening in the rear wall for a

Product slide on, which extends to the bottom of the tray and continues from there slit-like to the area of the front wall. Thus, a feed device can be used, which is attached to the front of a goods carrier with a front anchor and having a scroll spring which extends under the tray in the direction of the rear portion of a shelf and is fixed there. The arranged on this scroll spring, plate-like pusher

loads the goods through the opening in the

Rear wall of the tray from back to front with the force of the spring and thus holds the goods against the front of the tray or leads to this after a removal.

With regard to the presentation of goods and the removal of goods, this combination of tray and fabric feed device has proven extremely useful. The problem is for one

Manufacturer of a product, however, the by, for example, a

introduced perforation for the slot-like opening weakened bottom of the tray in the industrial production and packaging of the goods themselves.

Against this background, the invention makes it to

Task to provide a goods feed device available that is versatile, for example. Between

Compartment dividers, but also with trays. Furthermore, a tray will be explained which, on the one hand, meets the needs of the

Manufacturers of the mechanical strength is sufficient and that on the other hand can be combined in a simple manner with such a goods feed device. This technical problem is solved on the one hand in a to be arranged on a goods carrier or the like

WarenvorSububvorrichtung, with a spring-mounted on a profile slide for a feed of the goods, according to claim 1 by the measures that a front-side, carrier-resistant stop for the goods is provided and that the goods slide leading profile of

Goods feed device front of the goods carrier freely over the top of the goods carrier ends and is set back to the goods carrier.

The structural design of the goods feed device itself can largely correspond to the known,

for example, those which are explained in DE 202 02 793 Ul or DE 20 2007 011 927 Ul.

This goods feed devices in common is a

fixed guide profile at the front and back of the goods carrier, on which a goods slide spring-loaded holds the goods against a front stop or advances after a removal of goods.

Especially for the combination of a tray with a

Goods feed device according to the invention, it is provided that the profile bearing a goods slider is designed to be free end, dispensing with a front anchor front. Thus, when loading a goods carrier with a product in a tray, the profile of the goods feed device after removing the rear wall of the tray or by a sufficiently sized opening in the rear wall of the tray are pushed under the goods until the goods on the

Warp slider impinges and by pushing back the

Warp slider against the force of a spring this tensioned for a later goods feed. In the use arrangement, the profile between a bottom of the tray and an underside of the product is completely pushed back

engage, so that the bottom of the tray rests completely and flat on the product carrier. Alternatively, however, the goods can be separated from the

WarenvorSububvorrichtung are held against the front stop and tracked, in which case the product is arranged according to conventional manner on the profile.

As appropriate, it has further proven that the profile is resiliently fixed such that unloaded the free end of the profile is located above the front stop and rests under load by the weight of a commodity on the top of the product carrier or on a bottom of a tray.

Due to this measure, the front stop for the front of a tray will not interfere with an introduction of the profile in the tray between the floor and goods. However, the spring force is to be dimensioned such that by the weight of the product, the profile rests substantially on the bottom of the tray, where it is not disturbing if only a few, individual goods in the tray this slightly by the force of a the profile acting spring are raised.

For such lifting, the profile can be fixed by, for example, a hinge on the product carrier or a rear stop and pivot by the force of a spring, but it is preferred that the profile is resilient in itself, for example, has an angled portion or a curvature

In a further constructive configuration can be provided that the free end of the profile protrudes the product pusher in its foremost position and a tip-like

Has bevel. Threading the profile between the bottom of a product and a top of the bottom of the tray is thereby simplified. In particular, the Warenvo pusher and a tray are matched, it is useful if it is provided as a further measure that the profile is set back at such a height above the goods carrier, which corresponds approximately to the material thickness of the bottom of the tray. Minor changes in the material thickness of the floor, for example, by gluing the same, are not significant for a function of the goods feed device, however, with such a determination of the profile of this largely uninterrupted running over the bottom of the tray.

This can conveniently be done by the measure that the profile is set on a back stop for a tray.

The tray is thus securely held between two attacks carrier carrier, which by the spring-loaded

Product slide not the tray, but only the goods is held against the front of the tray, which is then supported even against the f ontseitigen, carrier-solid stop.

Conveniently, the back,

bearing-resistant stop used for setting the profile. In this case, such fixing can be made immutable, for example by screwing, welding, gluing or the like. Alternatively, however, it can also be thought, along such a stop over the length of a goods carrier latching the profiles or

otherwise adjustable to arrange so that trays

different width can be presented in a simple manner on such a product carrier.

When combining a tray with a tray

Goods feed device for a goods carrier or

the like, in particular as explained above, in the goods arranged in a tray in a tray goods from the goods feed device against a front side of the Trays held and advanced at a goods removal, gem. of claim 7, that a

Rear wall of the tray has an opening that a profile of the goods feed device front ends free end and the other end is trained carrier solid, that in the use of the profile profile through the opening

passing between a bottom of the tray and an underside of the goods, this engages underneath and a resiliently mounted on the profile goods slide holds the goods against the front of the tray, which is supported against a front side of the goods carrier stop arranged.

This inventive combination of a tray with a goods feed device has a number of advantages.

Thus, in the case of the tray according to the invention, preferably in the middle of a rear wall, except for one unattenuated,

continuous bottom reaching opening provided for introducing the goods feed device, sufficient for the introduction of the free end of the profile and a longitudinally movable on this profile by spring force shifter. Moreover, such a tray can be arbitrarily adapted to the requirements of a commodity manufacturer.

In addition, it is easily possible that the opening is closed before a goods presentation with introduced goods feed device, in particular during the production and / or packaging of the goods. The breakthrough may at a later time for a product presentation by tearing out of a perforated section

be created or by peeling off, for example, an adhesive tape.

The combination of tray and fabric feed device according to the invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the drawing, in the only exemplary embodiments are shown schematically. In the drawing shows:

Fig. 1: in an isometric view a

Goods carrier with tray and goods feed device according to the invention and

Trays.

In Figure 1, a merchandise carrier 1, a shelf insert or the like is shown, the front with a the

Top 2 of the goods carrier 1 superior stop 3 is completed. At this stop 3, a front side 4 of a tray 5 is supported, see also Figure 2.

For the rear wall 6 of the tray 5 is another

warenträgerfest stop 7 is provided so that the tray 5 is securely fixed between these two stops 3.7.

In the embodiment gem. Fig. 1 is on

rear stop 7 a profile 8 a

Goods feed device 9 set at the one

Warp slider 10 is forced by the force of a spring received in a housing 11 in the reproduced in Figure l, foremost position.

In this reproduced foremost position of

Product slide 10 is the free end 12 of the profile 8 before the goods slide 10 and obtained by a bevel 13 a tip-like training.

The determination of the profile 8 on the stop 7 is such that unloaded, as shown, the free end 12 is located above the front stop 3. Thus, in a simple manner, the rear wall 6 of the tray 5 to the

Goods feed device 10 are set, which in his Rear wall 6 has a correspondingly sized for the profile 8 and the product pusher 10 opening 14.

With the rear wall 6 to the free end 12 of the profile. 8

set, this stings, since it the goods shifter 10th

protrudes, in the space between the bottom 15 of the tray 5 and the underside of the goods therein. If the goods meet the goods slide 10, this is pushed in the direction of the fixed end of the profile 8 and thus the spring in the housing 11 is tensioned. Put on the

Goods carrier 1 then holds the spring-loaded pusher 10, the goods against the fronseitigen stop. 3

held front 4 and leads the goods after a removal to the front 4 out to.

In such a position of use is held by the weight of the goods in the tray 5, the profile 8 against the bottom 15 of the tray, preferably substantially without any deflection of this opposite.

This is particularly the case in a simple manner when the material thickness of the bottom 15 is about the height of the

rearward fitting 7 in the embodiment

corresponds.

By the intervention of the free end 12 of the

Warenvorschubvorrichtung 9 in the tray 5 through the

Through opening 14, 5 may in the tray

unattenuated, continuous bottom be formed, making this tray 5 is also well suited for a goods manufacturer.
