Description

L'invention concerne les meubles-caisses de sortie pour supermarchés et hypermarchés, appelés "checkout" en terminologie anglo-saxonne.The invention relates to checkout outlet furniture for supermarkets and hypermarkets, called "checkout" in English terminology.

Ces meubles comportent habituellement un tapis sans fin d'entrée, sur lequel le client dépose ses produits pour qu'ils soient acheminés à porté de la caissière, une caisse enregistreuse devant cette dernière, et le plus souvent, un tapis sans fin de sortie sur lequel la caissière dépose les objets enregistrés pour qu'ils soient évacués en bout de meuble où le client assure sa mise en sac. La caisse enregistreuse est maintenant souvent couplée avec un lecteur de code à barres accélérant la saisie et évitant les erreurs.This furniture usually includes an endless entry mat, on which the customer places his products so that they are transported within reach of the cashier, a cash register in front of the latter, and most often, an endless exit mat on which the cashier deposits the registered objects so that they are evacuated at the end of the furniture where the customer ensures his bagging. The cash register is now often paired with a barcode reader to speed up entry and avoid errors.

Pour éviter le refoulement des produits devant la caisse par le tapis d'entrée, il est fréquent de prévoir, sur le côté de sortie du tapis d'entrée, un barrage à cellule photo-électrique arrêtant ce tapis lorsqu'il est interrompu, et le remettant en marche dès que le rayon lumineux n'est plus intercepté. Par contre, du côté du tapis de sortie, il est habituel de laisser tourner le tapis en permanence pour que la caissière dispose toujours de la place pour évacuer les produits enregistrés.To avoid backflow of products in front of the body by the entrance mat, it is frequent to provide, on the exit side of the entrance mat, a barrier with photocell stopping this mat when it is interrupted, and restarting it as soon as the light beam is no longer intercepted. On the other hand, on the exit conveyor side, it is usual to let the conveyor run continuously so that the cashier always has room to evacuate the registered products.

Il résulte de cette disposition habituelle que, lorsque la caissière a fini l'enregistrement de la totalité des produits d'un client, ce qui se produit de plus en plus tôt avec l'utilisation des codes à barres, le client se trouve éloigné de la caissière, avec encore un grand nombre d'articles à charger, de sorte que la caissière est obligée d'attendre que le client ait terminé, d'où il résulte une importante perte de temps.It follows from this usual arrangement that, when the cashier has finished registering all of a customer's products, which happens earlier and earlier with the use of bar codes, the customer is far from the cashier, with still a large number of items to load, so that the cashier is forced to wait until the customer has finished, resulting in a significant loss of time.

Le but principal de l'invention est d'éliminer l'inconvénient précédent en agençant le meuble de sortie de manière que le client demeure près de la caissière, prêt à régler celle-ci lorsqu'elle a fini son compte, et de manière également qu'il n'ait pas à attendre l'acheminement de ses produits le long du tapis de sortie.The main object of the invention is to eliminate the preceding drawback by arranging the outlet cabinet so that the customer remains near the cashier, ready to settle the latter when she has finished her account, and also that he does not have to wait for the delivery of his products along the exit conveyor.

Pour résoudre ce problème, l'invention consiste, sur un meuble-caisse de sortie du type précédent, à disposer également un barrage à cellule photo-électrique ou similaire du côté entrée du tapis de sortie, ce barrage étant connecté à l'inverse du barrage habituel, c'est-à-dire de manière à mettre en route le tapis de sortie lorsqu'il est occulté, et inversement, d'arrêter ce tapis immédiatement après le dégagement du barrage.To solve this problem, the invention consists, on an outlet cash desk of the previous type, also of having a barrier with a photocell or the like on the entry side of the exit conveyor, this barrier being connected opposite to the usual barrier, that is to say so as to start the exit mat when it is obscured, and vice versa, to stop this mat immediately after the release of the dam.

De la sorte, la caissière dispose toujours de la place nécessaire pour évacuer les produits enregistrés, mais ces derniers n'effectuent que le minimum de déplacement à partir de la caisse, de manière à rester le plus près possible de la caissière.In this way, the cashier always has the space necessary to evacuate the registered products, but the latter make only the minimum of displacement from the cash register, so as to remain as close as possible to the cashier.

A titre de perfectionnement, on profite du mouvement tournant effectué par la caissière, lors de l'évacuation des produits, pour placer le tapis de sortie en position décalée par rapport au tapis d'entrée, afin de ménager du côté client un emplacement pour celui-ci à proximité de la caisse où il peut se tenir pour charger ses produits dans des sacs.As an improvement, we take advantage of the rotating movement made by the cashier, during the evacuation of products, to place the exit conveyor in a position offset with respect to the entry conveyor, in order to provide a location on the client side for that -close near the box where he can stand to load his products in bags.

A titre de perfectionnement, on peut équiper cet emplacement privilégié d'un distributeur de sacs de type connu, d'un casier à bouteilles à fond incliné garni de bandes anti-adhérentes permettant l'évacuation et l'accumulation sur un trajet restreint des bouteilles par simple gravité, et enfin, d'un bac pour le dépôt des produits fragiles ou craignant d'être souillés.As an improvement, this privileged location can be equipped with a known type of bag dispenser, a bottle rack with an inclined bottom furnished with non-stick strips allowing the evacuation and accumulation on a restricted path of the bottles. by simple gravity, and finally, of a tank for the deposit of fragile products or fearing to be soiled.

D'autres particularités de l'invention apparaîtront dans la description qui va suivre d'un mode de réalisation pris comme exemple et représenté sur le dessin annexé, sur lequel :

  • la figure 1 est une vue en perspective du meuble-caisse de sortie; et
  • la figure 2 est une vue en plan de ce meuble.
Other features of the invention will appear in the following description of an embodiment taken as an example and shown in the attached drawing, in which:
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of the checkout cabinet; and
  • Figure 2 is a plan view of this furniture.

On voit sur la figure 1 l'ensemble du meuble avec son tapis d'entrée 1, son tapis de sortie 2, et entre les deux, la caisse de sortie 3, avec éventuellement son lecteur de code à barres 4, qui peut être de type vertical ou horizontal, et son clavier de commande 5.We see in Figure 1 the entire cabinet with its entrance mat 1, its exit mat 2, and in between, the checkout counter 3, possibly with its barcode reader 4, which can be vertical or horizontal type, and its control keyboard 5.

Conformément à l'invention, on place du côté entrée du tapis de sortie 2, c'est-à-dire immédiatement à proximité de la caisse 3 ou du lecteur 4, un barrage lumineux 6 à cellule photo-électrique de type classique, ou tout autre moyen de détection similaire, connecté de telle manière qu'il mette en route le moteur d'entraînement du tapis de sortie 2, lorsque le rayon 6 est occulté, et qu'il arrête immédiatement ce moteur dès que le rayon n'est plus occulté. De cette manière, la caissière, dont l'emplacement est désigné en 7 en face de la caisse 3, dispose toujours de la place nécessaire pour évacuer les articles enregistrés, après les avoir passés sur le lecteur 4. Toutefois, ces produits n'effectuent que le minimum de trajet nécessaire pour libérer la place, tout en restant le plus près possible de la caisse enregistreuse. Pour effectuer cet enregistrement, la caissière placée en 7 fait effectuer tout naturellement aux produits prélevés sur la sortie du tapis d'entrée 1, un mouvement tournant représenté par la flèche 8 sur la figure 2, ce qui peut être mis à profit, selon l'invention, en plaçant le tapis de sortie 2 en position décalée par rapport au tapis d'entrée, comme représenté sur les figures, ce qui ménage en 9 une place privilégiée pour le client, à proximité immédiate de ses produits et de la caissière.In accordance with the invention, on the entry side of the exit mat 2, that is to say immediately near the body 3 or of the reader 4, a light barrier 6 with a photoelectric cell of conventional type, or any other similar detection means, connected in such a way that it starts the drive motor of the output conveyor 2, when the radius 6 is obscured, and it immediately stops this engine as soon as the beam is no longer obscured. In this way, the cashier, whose location is designated at 7 opposite the cash register 3, always has the space necessary to evacuate the recorded articles, after having passed them on the reader 4. However, these products do not carry out as the minimum journey required to free up space, while remaining as close as possible to the cash register. To carry out this recording, the cashier placed at 7 quite naturally makes the products taken from the exit of the entry conveyor 1 perform a rotating movement represented by the arrow 8 in FIG. 2, which can be taken advantage of, according to the invention, by placing the exit mat 2 in an offset position relative to the entry mat, as shown in the figures, which provides 9 a privileged place for the customer, in the immediate vicinity of its products and the cashier.

De cette manière, dès que la caissière a fini son enregistrement, le client est prêt à régler sa note, même s'il n'a pas fini le chargement de ses produits. Ce chargement est, par ailleurs, à ce moment plus avancé qu'à l'ordinaire puisqu'il n'a pas à attendre le délai d'acheminement sur toute la longueur du tapis de sortie comme à l'ordinaire.In this way, as soon as the cashier has finished recording, the customer is ready to pay his bill, even if he has not finished loading his products. This loading is, moreover, at this time more advanced than usual since it does not have to wait for the delivery time over the entire length of the output belt as usual.

La caissière, une fois réglée, peut alors immédiatement commencer l'enregistrement des produits du client suivant, quitte à faire avancer manuellement le tapis de sortie 2 d'une quantité déterminée pour que les produits restants du client précédent soient nettement séparés de ceux du client suivant.The cashier, once set, can then immediately start recording the products of the next customer, even if it means manually advancing the exit conveyor 2 by a determined quantity so that the remaining products of the previous customer are clearly separated from those of the customer following.

A cet emplacement privilégié 9 occupé par le client, on peut avantageusement disposer un distributeur de sacs 10, par exemple du type décrit dans la demande de brevet français 87 01 947, produisant la distribution et l'ouverture automatique de sacs réunis en enfilade, comme décrit dans la demande de brevet français n° 86 11 507.At this privileged location 9 occupied by the customer, it is advantageous to have a distributor of bags 10, for example of the type described in French patent application 87 01 947, producing the automatic distribution and opening of bags assembled in a row, as described in French patent application No. 86 11 507.

A titre de perfectionnement, également, on peut disposer entre le tapis de sortie 2 et l'emplacement privilégié 9, à proximité immédiate de celui-ci, un casier à bouteilles 11 dont le fond 12 légèrement incliné est revêtu de bandes 13 d'un produit anti-adhérent, tel que du polytétrafluoréthylène, pour permettre l'évacuation automatique des bouteilles 14 par simple gravité, mais sur une longueur réduite pour rester à proximité de l'emplacement 9. Pour cela, la pente du fond 12 est déterminée, en fonction du coefficient de frottement des bandes 13 au contact de toutes les matières utilisées pour constituer les bouteilles 14, afin que le glissement ait lieu dans tous les cas.By way of improvement, also, it is possible to have between the outlet conveyor 2 and the preferred location 9, in the immediate vicinity thereof, a bottle rack 11 whose bottom 12 slightly inclined is coated with strips 13 of a non-stick product, such as polytetrafluoroethylene, to allow the automatic evacuation of the bottles 14 by simple gravity, but over a reduced length to remain close to the location 9. For this, the slope of the bottom 12 is determined, in function of the coefficient of friction of the bands 13 in contact with all the materials used to form the bottles 14, so that the sliding takes place in all cases.

A titre de perfectionnement, également, on peut disposer, toujours à proximité de l'emplacement 7 où se trouve la caissière et de l'emplacement 9 où se trouve le client, un bac 15 destiné à recevoir les produits fragiles ou craignant d'être souillés, tels que les articles textiles, les articles de librairie ou de verrerie, ou encore les disques.By way of improvement, also, it is possible to have, still close to location 7 where the cashier is located and location 9 where the customer is located, a bin 15 intended to receive fragile products or products that fear being soiled, such as textile articles, library or glassware items, or even discs.

L'invention permet ainsi un meilleur service et une moindre perte de temps dont bénéficie l'ensemble des usagers.The invention thus allows a better service and a less waste of time from which all users benefit.
