Definitions

  • the invention relates to a coin operated coupling device for objects that can be connected to one another in a row, in particular shopping carts, with the features of the first part of patent claim 1.
  • Such devices are known to lock shopping carts used in shops or public facilities and to encourage the user to put his cart back in line after use. These known devices, be they purely mechanical or electromechanical, are structurally complex, large, not sufficiently reliable and of high weight.
  • the device can be easily adapted to coins of different diameters and faults can be easily eliminated.
  • the device can also be designed so that the scanning levers have no direct effect on the locking of the web, which allows their easy replacement for adaptation to different coin sizes.
  • a locking rod arranged in addition to the slide is not absolutely necessary, which considerably simplifies the device.
  • the device contains a carrier housing 1 with an inlet plate 2 for a coin 18, which is attached in front of the coin receiving chamber. Behind the plate 2 there is an elongated horizontal evaluation device 3 in the chamber, acted upon in the evaluation direction by an evaluation spring 4. Between the plate 2 and the evaluation direction 3, a lateral clamping jaw 5 is fastened for the coin, which can be displaced by a clamping jaw spring 6 (Fig. 3) is.
  • the free ends of the evaluation device 3, rocker arms 7, 8 and clamping jaw 5 protrude into the chamber inside.
  • the housing 1 has under the plate 2 and the chamber a recess 1a, into which a switching pawl 14 projects from above, which is pressed towards the recess 14a by a spring 15.
  • the rocker arm 7 is articulated to a closing slide 16, the rocking lever 8 to a closing slide 17 with the end opposite the coin 18.
  • the end 19 of the evaluation device 3 opposite the plate 2 has a latching notch for a bolt 20 which is acted upon by a locking spring 21 towards the device 3. This engagement takes place by entering the coin 18 which pushes the evaluation device 3 in against the action of its evaluation spring 4. Without the coin, the locking slides 16 and 17 lock a locking bar 22 under the action of a locking bar spring 23 by the interaction of an opening in the locking bar 16 with a rectangular recess 24 in the locking bar 22 and by the locking position of the locking slide 17 in front of the bar 22.
  • a central bolt 25 with spring action interacts with a rectangular recess in the locking bar 22 and is countered by the action of its spring by a ramp-shaped incline Surface of the evaluation device 3 offset.
  • a pressure test on the evaluation device 3 without swiveling the rocking lever 7 does not permit displacement of the evaluation device 3, which is blocked by the shoulder 26 against the closing slide 16.
  • the evaluation device ends towards the coin with an opening 27, so that the input of a coin that is too small, followed by another coin, does not allow the evaluation device 3 to be released. These measures are provided to avoid unwanted blockages. In addition, pressure with a tool strikes the central part of the evaluation direction 3 against the fixed part 28 of the housing.
  • the rear part of the housing 1 forms a projection 1 with an installed pivot lever 29 which rotates about an axle bolt 30 and one end of which cooperates with the end of the locking rod 22.
  • An elongated coupling element in the form of a slide tappet 31 is acted upon in the longitudinal direction by a slide tappet spring 32 and forms a projection 33.
  • Entering a coin 18 (Fig. 2) causes the locking rod 22 to be released, and a (mechanical) pull in the S direction causes the pivoting lever 29 to rotate in such a way that the end of the pivoting lever 29 facing away from the locking rod 22 abuts a shoulder 1c 'in of the recess 1a 'of an identical device previously locked on the device.
  • the slide tappet 31 slides to the right under the action of its slide tappet spring 32 (FIG. 4) and the projection 33 blocks the pivot lever 29 in the unlocked position.
  • the sliding plunger 31 ends at its end facing away from the pivoting lever 29 in a coupling element end 34 in the function and type of a key shaft, in particular a flat key.
  • the slide plunger 31 carries at the end opposite the key shaft 34 adjacent to the swivel lever 29 a locking device 35 designed as an axially movable sliding cylinder.
  • plate tumblers 36 can move transversely to the axis.
  • the axis of the sliding cylinder 35, in the direction of which the sliding cylinder 35 is displaced by the sliding plunger 31, lies in the extension of the longitudinal axis of the coupling element 31.
  • the sliding cylinder 35 is displaceable in a cylindrical recess 40 with upper and lower recesses 37.
  • the construction means that a connection or locking is only possible on an identical device, which in turn is already locked on a third device or on an end carrier working like such a device. If the device is to be switched on to a second device, which in turn is not connected to a third identical device, the coupling element 31 of the one device is in the position as shown in FIG. 4 and the insertion of the coupling element end 34 'of the previous device in FIG the sliding cylinder 35 does not cause the sliding ice 31 to move.
  • the device according to the invention is very flat and consequently protrudes only slightly. If, for example, it is mounted on a trolley, in particular a shopping trolley, this can be done on the side or on the top.
  • FIGS. 5 to 10 The second exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 5 to 10 is described below.
  • the two rocker arms 7 and 8 are retracted on both sides by retaining springs 9 and 10 and end next to the plates 2 with protruding guides 11 and 12 on both sides.
  • the end 19 of the evaluation device 3 facing away from the plate 2 has a latching lug under a closing slide 16, on which a closing slide spring 51 acts. This guessing process takes place by entering the coin 18 (see Fig. 6), which pushes the evaluation device 3 against the action of its evaluation spring 4.
  • the closing slide 16 is sunk in a rectangular recess 50 of the slide plunger 31, which is prestressed by the slide plunger spring 32.
  • the closing slide 16 locks the slide plunger 31.
  • the slide plunger 31 is in turn extended in the direction of the recess 1a of the housing 1 by a coupling element end 34 with the function of a key which is moved with the slide plunger 31.
  • the slide plunger 31 also has a cylindrical locking element 35 with the function of a locking cylinder in which tumblers 36 slide transversely.
  • the sliding cylinder 35 is mounted in a bore 40 with recesses 37.
  • the device also includes a bar 20, which is subject to the action of a bar spring 21 and, in the locked position (FIG. 5), is supported on the end 19 of the evaluation device 3 by pressure.
  • a bevel 52 of the evaluation device 3 has pushed the bolt 20 back against the action of the spring 21, and at the end of this process the bolt 20 is resiliently mounted in a rectangular recess 53 of the evaluation device 3, which thus counteracts the action of it Evaluation spring 4 is locked (Fig. 6).
  • a gap 54 in the recess 1a permits the introduction of a profiled key 55 (FIG. 8), the end of which penetrates into a recess in the closing slide 16. Tilting this key 55 (FIG. 9) lifts the closing slide 16 and allows the device to be disconnected for repair.
  • the rocking levers 7 and 8 with their springs 9 and 10 are articulated by axle bolts 13 on an independent support 57 which carries the inlet plate 2 and the evaluation device 3 and its evaluation spring 4.
  • This ensemble 58 which allows an exchangeable cassette for adaptation to different coin diameters, is detachably mounted in a recess 59 of the carrier housing 1. This is done using a special screw (not shown), which requires a special tool to loosen. This screw penetrates a recess 60 of the carrier 57 and an internal thread of the carrier housing 1.
  • this arrangement allows disassembly for repair and, above all, the use of an identical coin locking device for different coins, apart from the ensemble 58.
