Advertising media on shopping trolleys Addition to patent 2 204 297

The invention relates to an advertising medium on basket-shaped shopping trolleys as an addition to patent 2 204 297

The object, the improvement of which is sought with the invention, is an advertising medium on basket-shaped shopping carts, consisting of a plate, a frame or a bag as an advertising medium, which is attached to the upper edge of a Wall of the shopping cart, preferably hinged to the wall opposite the trolley handle and in the upright position Position is designed as a stable position above the shopping cart for display to be automatically erectable, as an addition to patent 2 204 297, so that the empty shopping carts save space in a known manner despite the advertising medium can be pushed into each other, whereby the advertising medium is folded over to the shopping cart.

The invention is now based on the object of making the holder of the advertising medium even more robust than before and above all a way to prevent damage to the advertising medium by arbitrarily pivoting the Advertising medium both in one and in the other

Direction of rotation excludes. But it should also be relative simple manufacturing possibilities are given.

This object is achieved according to the invention in that the hinge axis of the advertising medium is at least one below the upper edge of the adjacent shopping cart wall arranged lever is held, which with its free, the advertising medium hinge axis supporting end part about a second axis of the one to the other side of the shopping cart wall can be folded over against the force of an energy storage device, preferably furthermore, the lever carrying the advertising medium is arranged on the inside of the shopping cart wall.

This has the advantages that now on the one hand with empty and space-saving xnexnander-pushed shopping carts the advertising media with their brackets each arranged at most flush with the top of the shopping cart and therefore cannot interfere or be damaged when they are pushed into one another. On the other hand, can now the advertising medium from its stable, upright position, regardless of whether it is arbitrary or unintentional, be pivoted to the system on the outside of the shopping cart wall without being damaged, with the Lever end part carrying advertising media out of the basket over the upper edge of the adjacent wall of the basket to the outside is pivoted striving.

709847 / 02S6

A particularly simple and compact embodiment of the above-described detail is that as on the lever effective energy storage at least one arranged with bias, the lever on the inside the basket wall pressing spring is provided, preferably such that the spring acting on the lever than through the second axis, screw-shaped coiled spiral spring is formed with one arm engaging the lever and one arm engaging the lever frame.

Furthermore, an advantageous and inventive feature is characterized Characteristic of the above-described subject in that the spring acting on the lever is a has a smaller spring force than the erecting spring of the advertising medium.

This ensures that when the advertising medium is pivoted in sight of the outside of the shopping cart wall towards first the spring force of the spring element acting on the lever is overcome and the lever thereby over the upper edge of the shopping cart wall is pivoted away before the advertising medium is pivoted with respect to the lever, so that the advertising medium can not be supported on the upper edge of the goods kadu wall and therefore no excessive Is exposed to bending stress.

A particularly simple embodiment of a further above-described detail is that the Erecting spring of the advertising medium is designed as a torsion bar.

For this purpose, a particularly simple and technically favorable development is characterized by that the torsion bar spring is arranged as the hinge axis of the advertising medium, preferably also the torsion bar spring a first bent and attacking the advertising medium and a second molded one on the lever having attacking leg.

An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawings and is described in more detail below. Show it

Fig. Λ two partially nested shopping carts with advertising media in the front view,

Pig. 2 an advertising medium seen from the front, about normal size,

Fig. 3 also in section III-III of Fig. 2,

FIG. 4 likewise in positions other than FIG. 3.

The cart illustrated in Fig. Λ 1, which are provided in self-service store and supermarkets shoppers to transport the selected goods available, consisting in each case on a cart 2, the

709847/0256

Rollers 3 is arranged.

The rear wall 4 of the basket 2 is hinged at the top and can be swiveled to slide the carriages into one another, as shown.

On the wall 6 opposite the car handle 5 is a Advertising medium 7 supported.

The latter consists of an interchangeable holder Frames 8 made of plastic and equipped with advertising signs or the like. Two strive from the lower leg of the frame 8 Fork bearings 9, which are formed on the frame 8. Each bearing 9 is assigned a lever 10, which by means of a common axis 11 are articulated on a mounting plate 12. Through the bearings 9 imcL through to the free Bores arranged in lever end parts engages a common axis 13.

The axis I3 is designed as a torsion bar spring and has a first bent leg 14 which is rotationally fixedly connected to the one lever 10, during the second, bent leg I5, its free end part is bent outward striving to which an upright leg of the frame 8 is attached. This is a groove arranged in the aforementioned frame leg, in

are which of the legs I5 lies. IPerner / clie groove flanks penetrating pins that cross the leg I5 16 provided for locking the leg 15 in the groove.

709847/0256

Each lever 10 is a helically wound spiral spring 17 assigned. The latter are attached to the axle 11 and each have a first leg 18 acting under spring tension on the lever 10 and one second on the mounting plate 12 so supported leg 19 that the lever 10 is influenced by the springs I7 constantly printed in the position shown in Fig. 3 will.

The entire storage of the advertising medium 7 is below the top of the shopping cart arranged so that the storage when telescoping the shopping cart 1, wherein the advertising media 7 are automatically pivoted into the shopping cart 2, does not interfere.

As can be seen from Fig. 4-, the frame 8 of Attacks can be pivoted downward and toward the inside of the shopping cart wall 6 without hindrance until the upper leg of the frame 8 rests against the inside of the wall 6.

Fig. 5 shows part of an advertising medium 7 _S cLer has been arbitrarily pivoted to rest on the outside of the shopping cart wall 6 without the relatively sensitive frame 8 made of plastic is unduly stressed on bending.

All new ones disclosed in the description and / or drawing Single and combination merloals are regarded as essential to the invention.
