Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for conveying information on sales furniture, in which goods are presented, in which acoustic information about the goods presented in the sales furniture is output via one or more sound source (s) arranged in or on the sales furniture and the goods affected by the acoustic information are optically output be highlighted by an increased lighting density compared to the environment, the subject of the invention is also a piece of furniture for performing the method.
- the mediation via information media such as price tags or billboards has the disadvantage, even at small distances from the location of the storage of the product concerned, that the spatial reference to the goods presented in the sales furniture is missing and the connection only in an indirect way via illustrations or the description of the goods can be conveyed.
- the amount of information presented is very limited for information carriers that can be arranged very close to the goods, such as price tags.
- a method of the type mentioned at the outset and a corresponding vending device are known from US-A-4 035 941. There, images of the exhibited goods are successively shown and discussed using an acoustic-visual output device. In addition, the goods located behind a Venetian mirror in presentation compartments can be made visible by illuminating the presentation compartments by means of separate lighting devices. However, this method requires a specially adapted construction of the vending machine. In addition, only those goods or product groups can be highlighted that fill exactly one compartment of the sales device. As a result, this method is relatively inflexible and the quality of the information transfer is in many cases unsatisfactory.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of developing a method of the type mentioned at the outset which enables the highest possible quality of the information transfer, in particular by means of a particularly direct and easily comprehensible presentation.
- This object is achieved in that the increase in the illumination density is achieved by an illumination device in which the sound source (s) is / are installed.
- the sound source (s) are usually loudspeakers, but other systems for generating sound are also suitable for the method according to the invention.
- the acoustic information such as an announcement, is conveyed specifically to customers who are in front of the sales furniture.
- the content of the information relates to a single product or a group of goods that are offered in the sales furniture, preferably for self-service. This can be, for example, statements about price, quality, origin or other characteristics of the goods.
- the use of acoustic methods offers the advantage that the information reaches all customers who are in front of the sales furniture, regardless of other parameters such as their current direction of view.
- the goods affected by the acoustic information are simultaneously optically highlighted. It is advantageous if the optical highlighting is generated by an increased illumination density compared to the surroundings. This is accomplished by a lighting device in which the sound source (s) is / are installed.
- connection between acoustic information and the goods presented is illustrated by the additional effect, thus further increasing the quality of the information conveyed.
- the relative amplification of the lighting of the goods concerned is accomplished, for example, by general directional light superimposed on the lighting, such as that produced by spotlights. Simultaneously or alternatively, the performance of general lighting, which is carried out, for example, by area light sources such as fluorescent tubes, can be reduced.
- the method according to the invention thus considerably improves the quality of the information transmission on sales furniture. This is especially true in combination with the known methods described on a purely visual basis. It is still possible to refer to extremely narrow product groups.
- a piece of sales furniture for carrying out the method according to the invention has one or more sound sources and a lighting device which are arranged in or on the sales furniture and is characterized in that the sound source (s) is / are built into the lighting device.
- the light output of the lighting device is adjustable.
- the lighting device has planar and punctiform light sources, the output of which can be controlled independently of one another.
- the method of the invention is particularly suitable for sales furniture, the goods space of which is designed to be relatively open.
- different types of sales shelves have been chosen as exemplary embodiments which are characterized by a goods space which is freely visible from the front, that is to say from the customer side.
- the goods, which are arranged on top of each other in several levels, can also be seen by the customer from a few meters away.
- the sales furniture shown in the drawings each have a furniture body 1 which encloses the goods space 2.
- the latter accommodates a large number of shelves 3, which are not shown in the somewhat simpler drawing in FIG. 3.
- the sales shelves of FIGS. 1 and 2 each have a horizontal lighting device 4 which is fastened to the upper part of the furniture body 1 by means of supports 5.
- the upper part of the furniture body can also be pulled forward and the lighting device can be integrated at the front edge.
- the lighting device 4 generally contains fluorescent tubes, which serve to illuminate the entire goods area.
- the sound sources required for the method according to the invention for example loudspeakers, can in principle be attached to various points of the sales furniture, but integration into the lighting device 4 is advantageous.
- sources of directed light for example spotlights 6, can either be attached to the lighting device 4 (FIG. 1) or arranged inside the lighting device 4 (FIG. 2).
- the exemplary embodiments can have a plurality of loudspeakers, so that information relating only to a specific part of the goods stored in the sales furniture can already be acoustically limited to the corresponding area and a connection with the corresponding product group can thus be established.
- a plurality of spotlights 6 are preferably also provided in order to allow visual highlighting in the most flexible way possible and for several groups of goods presented in the sales furniture.
- the lines 8 relate to the areal basic lighting, the light cones 9 to the optical highlighting, which are caused by the directional light sources 6 with increased illumination density.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Informationsvermittlung an Verkaufsmöbeln, in welchen Waren präsentiert werden, bei dem über eine oder mehrere in oder an dem Verkaufsmöbel angeordnete Schallquelle/n akustische Informationen über die in dem Verkaufsmöbel präsentierten Waren ausgegeben und die von den akustischen Informationen betroffenen Waren optisch durch eine gegenüber der Umgebung erhöhte Beleuchtungsdichte hervorgehoben werden, Gegenstand der Erfindung ist außerdem ein Verkaufsmöbel zur Durchführung des Verfahrens.The invention relates to a method for conveying information on sales furniture, in which goods are presented, in which acoustic information about the goods presented in the sales furniture is output via one or more sound source (s) arranged in or on the sales furniture and the goods affected by the acoustic information are optically output be highlighted by an increased lighting density compared to the environment, the subject of the invention is also a piece of furniture for performing the method.
Zufriedenheit der Kunden und Höhe des Umsatzes hängen im Einzelhandel nicht zuletzt von der Qualität der Informationen über das zum Verkauf angebotene Produkt ab. Die Wirkung derartiger Informationen wird in hohem Maße davon bestimmt, wie gezielt diese vermittelt werden können. In diesem Zusammenhang ist es wünschenswert, daß über allgemeine Informationen wie Anzeigen, Schaufenstergestaltung und Durchsagen hinaus spezielle Informationen über ein einzelnes Produkt oder eine bestimmte Produktgruppe an derjenigen Stelle vermittelt werden, an der dem Kunden die Ware - im allgemeinen zur Selbstbedienung - präsentiert wird.Customer satisfaction and the amount of sales in retail depend not least on the quality of the information about the product offered for sale. The impact of such information is largely determined by how targeted it can be conveyed. In this context, it is desirable that, in addition to general information such as advertisements, shop window design and announcements, special information about an individual product or a certain product group be conveyed at the point at which the goods are presented to the customer, generally for self-service.
Es ist bekannt, eine derartige gezielte Vermittlung von Informationen durch Ausstellung der Ware selbst in einem Verkaufsmöbel, durch die Verpackung der Ware oder durch Informationsträger, die am Verkaufsmöbel oder in dessen Nähe angeordnet werden, vorzunehmen.It is known to carry out such targeted conveyance of information by displaying the goods themselves in a piece of sales furniture, by packaging the goods or by information carriers which are arranged on the sales furniture or in the vicinity thereof.
Die Vermittlung über Informationsträger wie zum Beispiel Preisschilder oder Werbetafeln weisen bereits bei kleinen Entfernungen zum Ort der Lagerung des betroffenen Produktes den Nachteil auf, daß der räumliche Bezug zur im Verkaufsmöbel präsentierten Ware fehlt und der Zusammenhang nur auf indirekte Weise über Abbildungen oder die Bezeichnung der Ware vermittelt werden kann. Bei Informationsträgern, die sehr nahe an der Ware angeordnet werden können, wie beispielsweise Preisschildern, ist dagegen die Menge an dargebotener Information sehr begrenzt.The mediation via information media such as price tags or billboards has the disadvantage, even at small distances from the location of the storage of the product concerned, that the spatial reference to the goods presented in the sales furniture is missing and the connection only in an indirect way via illustrations or the description of the goods can be conveyed. On the other hand, the amount of information presented is very limited for information carriers that can be arranged very close to the goods, such as price tags.
Diese bekannten Methoden weisen den Nachteil auf, daß sie nur einen geringen Teil der menschlichen Wahrnehmung ansprechen, da sie die Informationen lediglich visuell und dazu zum großen Teil über den Umweg der geschriebenen Sprache vermitteln.These known methods have the disadvantage that they only address a small part of human perception, since they convey the information only visually and to a large extent via the detour of the written language.
Ein Verfahren der eingangs genannten Art sowie eine entsprechende Verkaufsvorrichtung sind aus der US-A-4 035 941 bekannt. Dort werden über ein akustisch-visuelles Ausgabegerät nacheinander Bilder der ausgestellten Waren gezeigt und diskutiert. Außerdem können die hinter einem venezianischen Spiegel in Präsentationsabteilen befindlichen Waren durch Beleuchtung der Präsentationsabteile mittels separaten Beleuchtungsvorrichtungen sichtbar gemacht werden. Dieses Verfahren setzt jedoch eine speziell angepaßte Konstruktion der Verkaufsvorrichtung voraus. Außerdem können jeweils nur diejenigen Waren oder Warengruppen hervorgehoben werden, die genau ein Abteil der Verkaufsvorrichtung ausfüllen. Dadurch ist dieses Verfahren relativ unflexibel und die Qualität der Informationsvermittlung ist in vielen Fällen nicht zufriedenstellend.A method of the type mentioned at the outset and a corresponding vending device are known from US-A-4 035 941. There, images of the exhibited goods are successively shown and discussed using an acoustic-visual output device. In addition, the goods located behind a Venetian mirror in presentation compartments can be made visible by illuminating the presentation compartments by means of separate lighting devices. However, this method requires a specially adapted construction of the vending machine. In addition, only those goods or product groups can be highlighted that fill exactly one compartment of the sales device. As a result, this method is relatively inflexible and the quality of the information transfer is in many cases unsatisfactory.
Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren der eingangs genannten Art zu entwickeln, das eine möglichst hohe Qualität der Informationsvermittlung ermöglicht, insbesondere durch besonders direkte und leicht erfaßbare Darbietung.The invention is therefore based on the object of developing a method of the type mentioned at the outset which enables the highest possible quality of the information transfer, in particular by means of a particularly direct and easily comprehensible presentation.
Diese Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, daß die Erhöhung der Beleuchtungsdichte durch eine Beleuchtungsvorrichtung bewerkstelligt wird, in der die Schallquelle/n eingebaut ist/sind.This object is achieved in that the increase in the illumination density is achieved by an illumination device in which the sound source (s) is / are installed.
Bei der oder den Schallquelle/n handelt es sich in der Regel um Lautsprecher, es sind jedoch auch andere Systeme zur Erzeugung von Schall für das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren geeignet.The sound source (s) are usually loudspeakers, but other systems for generating sound are also suitable for the method according to the invention.
Die akustische Information, beispielsweise eine Durchsage, wird gezielt an Kunden vermittelt, die sich vor dem Verkaufsmöbel aufhalten. Der Inhalt der Information betrifft ein einzelnes Produkt oder eine Gruppe von Waren, die in dem Verkaufsmöbel, vorzugsweise zur Selbstbedienung, angeboten werden. Dabei kann es sich zum Beispiel um Aussagen über Preis, Qualität, Herkunft oder andere Merkmale der Ware handeln. Der Verwendung akustischer Methoden bietet den Vorteil, daß die Informationen alle Kunden, die sich vor dem Verkaufmöbel befinden, erreichen, unabhängig von weiteren Parametern wie beispielsweise deren momentane Blickrichtung.The acoustic information, such as an announcement, is conveyed specifically to customers who are in front of the sales furniture. The content of the information relates to a single product or a group of goods that are offered in the sales furniture, preferably for self-service. This can be, for example, statements about price, quality, origin or other characteristics of the goods. The use of acoustic methods offers the advantage that the information reaches all customers who are in front of the sales furniture, regardless of other parameters such as their current direction of view.
Daneben kann auch kurzfristig eine flexible und wenig aufwendige Anpassung an des momentane Warenangebot durch einfache Änderung von direkten Ansagen oder durch Verwendung eines anderen Tonträgers durchgeführt werden. Die Anordnung eigener Lautsprechersysteme ermöglicht es, praktisch zu jedem Produkt spezifische Informationen zu vermitteln und damit eine Fülle von außerordentlich gezielten Informationen anzubieten.In addition, a flexible and inexpensive adjustment to the current range of goods can be carried out at short notice by simply changing direct announcements or by using another sound carrier. The arrangement of your own loudspeaker systems makes it possible to convey specific information about practically every product and thus to offer a wealth of extremely targeted information.
Gemäß einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung werden die von den akustischen Informationen betroffenen Waren gleichzeitig optisch hervorgehoben. Dabei ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die optische Hervorhebung durch eine gegenüber der Umgebung erhöhte Beleuchtungsdichte erzeugt wird. Dies wird durch eine Beleuchtungsvorrichtung bewerkstelligt, in der die Schallquelle/n eingebaut ist/sind.According to a further feature of the invention, the goods affected by the acoustic information are simultaneously optically highlighted. It is advantageous if the optical highlighting is generated by an increased illumination density compared to the surroundings. This is accomplished by a lighting device in which the sound source (s) is / are installed.
Der Zusammenhang zwischen akustischen Hinweisen und den dargebotenen Waren wird durch den zusätzlichen Effekt verdeutlicht und damit die Qualität der vermittelten Information weiter erhöht. Die relative Verstärkung der Beleuchtung der betroffenen Waren wird beispielsweise durch der allgemeinen Beleuchtung überlagertes, gerichtetes Licht bewerkstelligt, wie es etwa von Spot-Scheinwerfern erzeugt wird. Gleichzeitig oder alternativ kann die Leistung der allgemeinen Beleuchtung, die beispielweise durch flächenhafte Lichtquellen wie Leuchtstoffröhren vorgenommen wird, reduziert werden.The connection between acoustic information and the goods presented is illustrated by the additional effect, thus further increasing the quality of the information conveyed. The relative amplification of the lighting of the goods concerned is accomplished, for example, by general directional light superimposed on the lighting, such as that produced by spotlights. Simultaneously or alternatively, the performance of general lighting, which is carried out, for example, by area light sources such as fluorescent tubes, can be reduced.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren verbessert damit die Qualität der Informationsvermittlung an Verkaufsmöbeln erheblich. Dies gilt ganz besonders in Kombination mit den geschilderten bekannten Methoden auf rein visueller Basis. Dabei kann nach wie vor auf äußerst eng begrenzte Produktgruppen Bezug genommen werden.The method according to the invention thus considerably improves the quality of the information transmission on sales furniture. This is especially true in combination with the known methods described on a purely visual basis. It is still possible to refer to extremely narrow product groups.
Ein Verkaufsmöbel zur Durchführung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens weist eine oder mehrere Schallquellen sowie eine Beleuchtungsvorrichtung auf, die in oder an dem Verkaufsmöbel angeordnet sind und ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß die Schallquelle/n in die Beleuchtungsvorrichtung eingebaut ist/sind.A piece of sales furniture for carrying out the method according to the invention has one or more sound sources and a lighting device which are arranged in or on the sales furniture and is characterized in that the sound source (s) is / are built into the lighting device.
Dabei ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die Lichtleistung der Beleuchtungseinrichtung einstellbar ist. Bei einem weiter verbessertes Verkaufsmöbel weist die Beleuchtungsvorrichtung flächenhafte und punktförmige Lichtquellen auf, deren Leistung unabhängig voneinander gesteuert werden kann.It is advantageous if the light output of the lighting device is adjustable. In the case of a further improved piece of sales furniture, the lighting device has planar and punctiform light sources, the output of which can be controlled independently of one another.
Die Erfindung und weitere Einzelheiten der Erfindung werden im folgenden anhand einiger in den Zeichnungen dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiele näher erläutert. Hierbei zeigen
Figuren 1, 2- Ausführungsbeispiele erfindungsgemäßer Verkaufsmöbel mit horizontaler Beleuchtungseinrichtung und
Figur 3- ein Ausführungsbeispiel eines erfindungsgemäßen Verkaufsmöbels mit vertikaler Beleuchtungseinrichtung.

- Figure 3
- an embodiment of a piece of sales furniture according to the invention with a vertical lighting device.
Das Verfahren der Erfindung ist besonders geeignet für Verkaufsmöbel, deren Warenraum relativ offen gestaltet ist. Daher sind verschiedene Typen von Verkaufsregalen als Ausführungsbeispiele gewählt worden, die sich durch einen von vorne, also von der Kundenseite her, frei einsehbaren Warenraum auszeichnen. Die in mehreren Ebenen übereinander angeordneten Waren sind auch aus einigen Metern Entfernung für den Kunden erkennbar.The method of the invention is particularly suitable for sales furniture, the goods space of which is designed to be relatively open. For this reason, different types of sales shelves have been chosen as exemplary embodiments which are characterized by a goods space which is freely visible from the front, that is to say from the customer side. The goods, which are arranged on top of each other in several levels, can also be seen by the customer from a few meters away.
Die in den Zeichnungen dargestellten Verkaufsmöbel weisen jeweils einen Möbelkorpus 1 auf, der den Warenraum 2 umschließt. In letzterem ist eine Vielzahl von Regalböden 3 untergebracht, die in der etwas einfacher gestalteten Zeichnung von Figur 3 nicht dargestellt sind.The sales furniture shown in the drawings each have a furniture body 1 which encloses the
Die Verkaufsregale der Figuren 1 und 2 weisen jeweils eine horizontale Beleuchtungseinrichtung 4 auf, die mittels Trägern 5 am oberen Teil des Möbelkorpus 1 befestigt ist. In abgewandelten Ausführung kann der obere Teil des Möbelkorpus auch weiter nach vorne gezogen und die Beleuchtungseinrichtung am vorderen Rand integriert sein.The sales shelves of FIGS. 1 and 2 each have a horizontal lighting device 4 which is fastened to the upper part of the furniture body 1 by means of supports 5. In a modified version, the upper part of the furniture body can also be pulled forward and the lighting device can be integrated at the front edge.
Die Beleuchtungseinrichtung 4 enthält im allgemeinen Leuchtstoffröhren, die zur flächenhaften Beleuchtung des gesamten Warenraumes dienen. Die für das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren benötigten Schallquellen, beispielsweise Lautsprecher, können prinzipiell an verschiedenen Stellen des Verkaufsmöbels angebracht werden, vorteilhaft ist jedoch eine Integration in die Beleuchtungseinrichtung 4.The lighting device 4 generally contains fluorescent tubes, which serve to illuminate the entire goods area. The sound sources required for the method according to the invention, for example loudspeakers, can in principle be attached to various points of the sales furniture, but integration into the lighting device 4 is advantageous.
Falls eine optische Hervorhebung von einzelnen Produktgruppen gewünscht ist, können Quellen gerichteten Lichtes, beispielsweise Spot-Scheinwerfer 6, entweder an die Beleuchtungseinrichtung 4 angebaut (Figur 1) oder innerhalb der Beleuchtungseinrichtung 4 angeordnet sein (Figur 2).If optical highlighting of individual product groups is desired, sources of directed light, for
Bei einer vertikalen Beleuchtungseinrichtung 7, wie sie in Figur 3 zu sehen ist, können einzelne Warengruppen noch gezielter durch gerichtetes Licht hevorgehoben werden, falls dort neben Leuchtstoffröhren ebenfalls Spot-Scheinwerfer 6 integriert sind, wie es in dem Ausführungsbeispiel vorgesehen ist.In the case of a vertical lighting device 7, as can be seen in FIG. 3, individual product groups can be emphasized even more specifically by directional light if
Die Ausführungsbeispiele können mehrere Lautsprecher aufweisen, so daß Informationen, die nur einen bestimmten Teil der in dem Verkaufsmöbel gelagerten Waren betreffen, bereits akustisch auf den entsprechenden Bereich begrenzt und damit ein Zusammenhang mit der entsprechenden Warengruppe hergestellt werden kann. Zum anderen ist vorzugsweise auch eine Mehrzahl von Spot-Scheinwerfern 6 vorgesehen, um eine optische Hervorhebung auf möglichst flexible Weise und für mehrere in dem Verkaufsmöbel präsentierte Warengruppen zu erlauben.The exemplary embodiments can have a plurality of loudspeakers, so that information relating only to a specific part of the goods stored in the sales furniture can already be acoustically limited to the corresponding area and a connection with the corresponding product group can thus be established. On the other hand, a plurality of
Die Wirkungen der beiden verschiedenen Arten der Beleuchtung sind in den Figuren durch gestrichelte Linien angedeutet. Die Linien 8 betreffen die flächenhafte Grundbeleuchtung, die Lichtkegel 9 die optische Hervorhebung, die durch die gerichteten Lichtquellen 6 mit erhöhter Beleuchtungsdichte hervorgerufen werden.The effects of the two different types of lighting are indicated in the figures by dashed lines.
