Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sales counter with a counter body and a structure which serves to fasten a rotatable or displaceable front pane.
  • Sales counters are used in supermarkets and retail stores for food storage and presentation. They are used in particular for meat and sausage products, cheese, fish and delicatessen salads. Such a sales counter has a furniture body and an attachment located thereon. For hygienic and refrigeration reasons, the attachment under which the exhibited goods are located is provided with a front screen on the front facing the customer.
  • a work area is usually provided for the sales staff, on which they perform the work required in connection with the sale of the goods.
  • meat has to be cut, boned and tapped, sausage or cheese cut, fish cut and scaly, or delicatessen salads filled into portion cups; the finished portioned goods must then be weighed and packaged.
  • Scales are usually set up on the work surface for weighing.
  • the sales counter has a storage area on which, for example, payment plates are housed and on which the packaged goods are handed over to the customer.
  • the storage area serving as payment and goods transfer area cannot be adjusted vertically or horizontally.
  • all items on the shelf such as e.g. Clear away payment plates or advertising accessories to prevent them from falling off. Since the work area is difficult to see from the customer 's side, it is often difficult for the customer to see which goods he is being allocated by the sales staff. On the other hand, it is tedious for the sales staff to have to keep the goods clearly visible to the customer.
  • Another disadvantage is that the storage area is often soiled when the goods are handed over to the customer due to impurities on the outside of the packaging (such as meat juice, marinade, etc.), so that the goods transfer plate has to be cleaned frequently.
  • a sales counter of the type mentioned which, in addition to the previously known storage or goods transfer area on the top of the attachment, has an additional storage area formed by a plate attached to the attachment is owned.
  • This plate is rotatably arranged on a vertical axis of rotation. This creates the opportunity for the sales staff to show the customer the goods in the immediate vicinity.
  • the work surface of the sales counter is particularly easy to clean, since the items usually on the work surface can be placed on the plate at least during the cleaning process. This protects the actual storage or goods transfer area on the top, which is often formed by a glass plate.
  • sales counters generally have a number plate or goods transfer plate that runs over their entire width, which is, however, not absolutely necessary, especially in the case of very wide or several sales counters arranged side by side.
  • the use of payment or goods transfer plates is sufficient in some selected locations or with appropriate distances between the individual payment or goods transfer plates.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object of developing a sales counter of the type mentioned at the outset which is distinguished by particular clarity for the customer, ease of use and ease of cleaning for the sales staff and the greatest possible variability with regard to the payment or goods transfer plate.
  • This object is achieved in that at least one number plate or goods transfer plate, which is separated from the windscreen, is fastened to the upper edge of the structure.
  • An advantageous embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the number or goods transfer plate is adjustable in height.
  • the height adjustment is generally achieved in that the support, at the upper end of which the payment or goods transfer plate is fastened, has a telescoping adjustment mechanism.
  • the extended support is secured with bolts or screws.
  • the expert is more Types of corresponding height adjustment mechanisms are known.
  • This configuration thus enables the height of the number plate or goods transfer plate to be adapted in the simplest manner both to the type of sales counter and to the size of the sales staff.
  • a further advantageous embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the number plate or goods transfer plate is at least partially horizontally adjustable.
  • This configuration now allows either the horizontal shifting of the entire payment or goods transfer plate or the horizontal shifting of a sub-segment of the payment or goods transfer plate. In this way, not only is it possible to adapt the number or goods transfer plate to the type of sales counter, but also a more customer- and sales personnel-friendly exchange between the sold goods and the payment that may be made directly at the sales counter.
  • a preferred development of the invention is characterized in that the adjustable number plate or goods transfer plate has the same or a smaller width than the front window or sales counter.
  • the present invention offers greater variability compared to the prior art and the possibility of attaching the payment or goods transfer plate only at the points where this is necessary for the sale of items in the sales counter offered goods appears necessary.
  • FIG. 1 shows the side view of a sales counter according to the invention. It consists of a heat-insulating furniture body 1, a base 2 and a structure 3.
  • the structure 3 comprises a support 4 on the rear of the refrigerator counter facing the seller from the furniture body 1, a number plate or goods transfer plate 5 is fastened to the upper end thereof, and a front pane 6 located on the seller's front side of the refrigerated display case.
  • the front pane 6 can be moved by pushing it backwards along the dashed, curved line 7 Filling the goods area and moving the inside of the windscreen out of its closed position.
  • FIG. 2 shows the area of the sales counter according to the invention which is surrounded by a circle in FIG.
  • the number or goods transfer plate 5 rests on the horizontally formed upper end of the support 4.
  • the number or goods transfer plate 5 has, in its front area, a pin 9 milled into a guide 8 milled into the horizontally formed end of the support 4.
  • Nete position 5a is moved in the basic position parallel to the support 4, height-adjustable support rod 10 in the position 10a shown in dashed lines.
  • the maximum possible displacement length is determined by the length of the guide 8 milled into the horizontally formed upper end of the support 4.
  • FIG. 3 shows a further embodiment of the invention, in which a sub-segment 5b of the payment or goods transfer plate 5 is shifted from the basic position into a position 5c shown in broken lines.
  • FIG. 4 shows a sales counter according to the invention, consisting of a heat-insulating furniture body 1, a base 2 and a structure 3 in section.
  • the devices for generating cold, ie cooling unit 13 and fan 14 for air circulation, contained in the insulating furniture body 1 are located below the goods floor 12.
  • the hinged front window 6 is attached.
  • the payment or goods transfer plate 5 is connected to the support 4 via a support rod which is rotatably mounted in the center of the support 4.
  • This support rod in turn consists of two rotatably connected segments 11 and 11a; the support rod segment 11 pointing upwards in the basic position, pointing to the customer side of the sales counter and serving to support the payment or goods transfer plate 5, and the horizontally formed support rod segment 11 on which the number or goods transfer plate 5, as described in FIG. 2, can be moved is stored.
  • the support rod with the number plate or goods transfer plate 5 located thereon is moved into the position 5d, 11 and 11c shown in broken lines.
