Definitions
- the invention relates to a transport trolley which can be inserted into a transport trolley of the same type and is equipped with a device provided for receiving goods, with a coin lock provided with a coupling device being arranged in its grip area, which on a deposit basis is a mutual coupling and uncoupling of transport trolleys with or allowed without using a collection point.
- Transport or shopping trolleys equipped with coin locks are known, for example, from German Offenlegungsschriften 2554916, 2 900 367, 3 324 962 and from German utility model 8 121 677.
- Cars of this type are lent on a deposit basis. They can either be coupled and decoupled from one another and / or specifically collected and borrowed at various points in connection with permanently installed collection points. In recent years, such car collection and rental systems have also been introduced in supermarkets. The aim of these systems is to avoid, for example, empty shopping carts standing around randomly and unused in parking lots. Due to the peculiar shape of the shopping cart, it is not easy to attach coin locks in suitable places so that both the known telescoping, as well as the convenient handling of the shopping cart are retained.
- the coin locks shown in DE-OS 3 324 962 have a disadvantage in that they have to be attached to the outside of the basket side walls. As a result, there is a risk that shopping trolleys designed in this way can no longer be pushed through the passageways provided at the checkout zones, particularly if the shopping trolleys are already wide and large due to the lateral application of the coin locks.
- the object of the invention is therefore to arrange the coin lock in a transport carriage of the type mentioned in such a way that it does not reduce the space provided for a toddler to be carried in the carriage, that the loading and unloading of the device provided for receiving the goods is not hindered that it is also not willfully changeable in its position and that ultimately its position does not change over time due to the effects of use.
- the object is achieved in that the coin lock is arranged in the region of one of the two handle support arms and is supported both on the handle support arm and on the handle.
- the advantage of the invention is that the coin lock on the trolley is arranged in an area that is not otherwise required for the function or for moving a trolley. If the coin lock is shaped in such a way that it is supported both on the handle support arm and on the handle, it cannot be rotated about a horizontal axis due to the two fastening sections arranged at an angle to one another.
- Another advantage can be seen in the fact that the coin lock does not or only insignificantly on the side.
- the width dimension of a transport trolley basically remains almost unchanged.
- the expediency of the arrangement of the coin lock according to the invention at the above-mentioned point can be seen in that it does not protrude into the seating area for a child to be carried in the transport vehicle. The space reserved for the child is fully preserved.
- another advantage should be noted that by using the space located above the handle to accommodate the coin lock, the area under the handle for the purpose of pushing several trolleys into each other is fully preserved and the loading and unloading of the basket is not is adversely affected.
- the invention includes all current shopping cart forms that are currently up to date. These include, for example, all shopping carts 1 which, as shown in FIG. 1, are designed such that they can be pushed into one another for the purpose of space-saving stacking due to their tapering shape in the direction of travel.
- shopping trolleys 1 have, in a known manner, a chassis equipped with four castors, which carries at its upper end a basket 2 which is bounded on the rear by a flap 4 which can be rotated about a horizontal axis located in the upper region and can be pivoted into the basket interior.
- the flap 4 can also be used known child seat.
- At the upper rear end 3 of the basket 2 there is a handle support arm 6 on both sides.
- Both handle support arms 6 are connected by a handle 7, which preferably has a tubular cross section and is firmly connected to the handle support arms 6 by screwing.
- a coin lock 10 equipped with a coupling device 12 which, on a deposit basis, enables free-standing shopping carts 1, 1 'to be coupled and uncoupled from one another, as well coupling and uncoupling to a permanently installed collection point or to a shopping cart 1 connected directly or indirectly to the collection point. Collection points are described, for example, in DE-OS 3 303 076.
- Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 show a side view and a plan view of a way how the coin lock can be conveniently attached to a handle arm. Describing the shape and mode of operation of the coin lock 10 in more detail is basically of secondary importance. Since the coin lock 10 always has a housing 11, this can be shaped such that it can be fastened at any time, as shown in the example, in the connection area 9 of a handle support arm 6 with the adjoining handle end 8.
- the coin lock 10 generally has a coupling device 12.
- the coupling device 12 consists of a bracket 13 protruding from the coin lock 10, which, in the coupled state, inserts two shopping carts 1, 1 'into a receiving opening 14 provided on the coin lock 10 and there via a suitable catch - And locking means is locked to the coin lock 10 of another shopping cart 1 '.
- the coin lock 10 has a cash inserting and dispensing opening 15, into which a means of payment in the form of a coin can be inserted and removed there again.
- the coin lock 10 consists of a cubic housing 11 which has an obliquely upwardly extending shaft 16, the contour of which is adapted to the upper region of a handle support arm 6.
- this contour is modeled on the loop shape of the handle support arm 6, an opening 18, preferably a cylindrical shape, being provided in the housing 11 in the center of the loop curvature on a horizontal axis 17 running perpendicular to the shaft 16.
- the opening 18 has a cylindrical section 19 for receiving a disk 20, through which a screw 21 is guided, which is screwed to an expansion element 22 located at the handle end 8 within the handle 7.
- the coin lock 10 remains arranged on the shopping cart 1 so that it cannot rotate.
- Both the shaft 16 and the opening 18 each form a fastening section, the fastening sections being arranged at an angle to one another such that they do not lie on a common axis.
- the coin lock 10 is supported by these fastening sections both on one of the two handle support arms 6 and on the handle 7.
- the fastening section 23 is designed similar to a so-called grip cap.
- the handles 7 of the shopping trolleys 1, 1 ' which consist of tubes, are fastened to the handle support arms 6 in a known manner with a handle cap.
- Handle caps consist of a socket-shaped extension, the longitudinal axis of which, when in use, is arranged horizontally and which is provided for receiving part of the handle.
- a pocket is formed at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the socket-shaped extension and is provided for receiving the upper end section of a handle support arm.
- a common opening connects the pocket and the socket-shaped extension, so that a screw can be inserted into the opening from the outside of the pocket for the purpose of fastening the handle.
- the socket-shaped extension 24 in which a part of the handle 7 is located.
- the pocket 26 can be seen in which the upper end section of a handle support arm 6 is inserted.
- the coin lock 10 is fastened to the handle support arm 6 with a single screw 21, which leads from the outside to the handle 7 along the longitudinal axis 25 and is screwed there with an expansion element 22 located in the handle 7.
- the main part of the coin lock 10, such as the coupling device 12 and the money inserting and dispensing opening 15, is located above the fastening section 23.
- the screw 21 and the expanding element 22 are not shown physically.
- FIG. 5 shows a possibility of how a coin lock 10 can subsequently be attached to the handle support arm 6 of a shopping trolley 1 already in use.
- both grip caps 27 remain, i.e. the right and the left on the shopping cart 1.
- the housing 11 1 of the coin lock 10 consists of a housing section 28 located directly above the handle support arm 6, which takes up a substantial part of the volume of the coin lock 10 while a downwardly directed plate-shaped web 29 comes to lie laterally on the handle support arm 6 from the outside.
- On the inside of the handle support arm 6 there is a counter plate 30 in which at least two threaded bores are provided.
- the arrangement of the coin lock 10 in the area shown in the examples on a shopping cart 1 is extremely favorable. If you hold the coin lock 10 with a thickness of only 45 mm very narrow, which, as practice shows, is quite possible, it is easy to imagine that with a common handle width of about 500 mm there is enough space to grip the handle 7 and that also a centrally located child seat, which has a seat width of approximately 260 mm, is not impaired in its space requirement by the laterally arranged coin lock 10. In practice, the lateral protrusion of the coin lock 10 to the outside is about 6 to 10 mm, which is insignificant in view of a common carriage width of 600 mm.
- the invention does not relate exclusively to shopping carts 1, 1 '. It also encompasses all other common transport carriages which can be moved and pushed into one another and which are provided for the transport of goods and which have a handle 7 provided on handle support arms 6.
- the handle support arms 6 and the handle 7 may well be formed from a single part.
- the invention has only been described with the aid of a shopping trolley 1 because the use of coin locks 10 is now preferably carried out on shopping trolleys 1, 1 '.
