Description

La présente invention concerne un présentoir à plusieurs bacs de distribution dans lesquels peuvent être stockés en vrac des articles de confiserie, notamment des bonbons. Un présentoir selon l'invention est plus particulièrement destiné à être utilisé dans les commerces de détail.The present invention relates to a display unit with several distribution bins in which confectionery articles, in particular candies, can be stored in bulk. A display unit according to the invention is more particularly intended for use in retail businesses.

L'invention est spécialement prévue pour être utilisée dans les commerces de grandes surfaces où les consommateurs peuvent se servir directement sans l'aide d'une vendeuse.The invention is specially intended for use in large-scale shops where consumers can get their food directly without the help of a saleswoman.

Depuis quelques années, les consommateurs ont pris l'habitude d'acheter des bonbons en vrac ce qui a amené la petite et la grande distributions à prévoir des présentoirs à plusieurs bacs de distribution généralement disposés, par exemple, en batterie et contenant respectivement différentes sortes de bonbons dont les prix sont identiques. Les bonbons provenant d'un bac donné peuvent être recueillis dans un sachet ou un récipient unique. Pour extraire les bonbons des bacs, on se sert d'une pelle, par exemple en forme de louche ou de tout autre moyen adapté. Le consommateur fait ensuite peser son sachet lors de son passage devant une caissière ou bien il effectue seul cette opération sur une balance électronique qui appose dans le même temps une étiquette indiquant le prix à payer.In recent years, consumers have become accustomed to buying sweets in bulk, which has led small and large distributors to provide displays with several distribution bins generally arranged, for example, in batteries and containing respectively different kinds. candies with identical prices. Candy from a given bin can be collected in a single bag or container. To extract the candies from the tubs, a shovel is used, for example in the shape of a ladle or any other suitable means. The consumer then weighs his sachet when he passes in front of a cashier or he this is done alone on an electronic scale which affixes at the same time a label indicating the price to be paid.

Au cours de l'utilisation de tels bacs de distribution, il a été constaté que les consommateurs avaient tendance parfois à y mélanger les bonbons quand il y avait trop de facilité d'accès aux bacs. Cela entraîne inévitablement des problèmes d'hygiène.During the use of such distribution bins, it was found that consumers sometimes tended to mix the candies there when there was too much access to the bins. This inevitably leads to hygiene problems.

Une solution audit problème a été proposée par le brevet GB-A-2 219 279 divulguant un distributeur pour articles de confiserie obturé à l'avant par un opercule.A solution to said problem has been proposed by patent GB-A-2 219 279 disclosing a dispenser for confectionery articles closed at the front by a cover.

Le but de l'invention est donc de proposer un présentoir qui permet de résoudre les problèmes évoqués ci-dessus et de garantir l'inviolabilité des bacs de distribution et d'empêcher toute personne non habilitée par le propriétaire du présentoir d'intervenir sur celui-ci.The object of the invention is therefore to propose a display which makes it possible to solve the problems mentioned above and to guarantee the inviolability of the distribution bins and to prevent any person not authorized by the owner of the display from intervening on that. -this.

A cet effet, un présentoir selon l'invention est du type qui est constitué d'un caisson à l'intérieur duquel est arrangée en au moins une colonne une pluralité de bacs de distribution. Il est caractérisé en ce que chaque bac comporte, dans sa partie supérieure, un couvercle qui peut coulisser vers l'avant du présentoir de manière à pouvoir être retiré et ainsi à donner accès à l'intérieur dudit bac et en ce que des moyens verrouillables sont prévus pour empêcher, en position verrouillée, le coulissement dudit couvercle de chaque bac.To this end, a display unit according to the invention is of the type which consists of a box inside of which is arranged in at least one column a plurality of distribution bins. It is characterized in that each container has, in its upper part, a cover which can slide towards the front of the display so as to be able to be removed and thus give access to the interior of said container and in that locking means are provided to prevent, in the locked position, the sliding of said cover of each tray.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, lesdits moyens de verrouillage sont constitués d'au moins un barreau vertical qui, lorsqu'il est monté et verrouillé sur le caisson du présentoir, se trouve devant chaque bac empêchant ainsi le coulissement du couvercle de chaque bac .According to another characteristic of the invention, said locking means consist of at least one vertical bar which, when mounted and locked on the display case, is located in front of each tray thus preventing the sliding of the cover of each bac.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les bacs sont arrangés par ensemble de deux colonnes, lesdits moyens de verrouillage consistant en un barreau vertical qui, lorsqu'il est monté et verrouillé sur le caisson du présentoir, se trouve devant chaque colonne de bacs dans le plan qui sépare lesdites colonnes de chaque ensemble.According to another characteristic of the invention, the containers are arranged in sets of two columns, said locking means consisting of a vertical bar which, when mounted and locked on the display case, is located in front of each column of containers in the plane which separates said columns from each set.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, lesdits moyens de verrouillage consistent en deux barreaux verticaux qui, lorsqu'ils sont montés sur le caisson du présentoir, se trouvent d'un côté et de l'autre devant chaque colonne de bacs .According to another characteristic of the invention, said locking means consist of two vertical bars which, when mounted on the display case, are on one side and on the other in front of each column of trays.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les bacs sont arrangés par ensemble de deux colonnes et en ce que lesdits moyens de verrouillage consistent, d'une part, en un barreau vertical qui, lorsqu'il est monté et verrouillé sur le caisson du présentoir, se trouve devant chaque colonne de bacs dans le plan qui sépare lesdites colonnes de chaque ensemble et, d'autre part, en deux barreaux verticaux qui, lorsqu'ils sont montés sur le caisson du présentoir, se trouvent d'un côté et de l'autre devant chaque ensemble de deux colonnes de bacs.According to another characteristic of the invention, the tanks are arranged in sets of two columns and in that said means locking consist, on the one hand, of a vertical bar which, when mounted and locked on the display case, is located in front of each column of trays in the plane which separates said columns from each set and, on the other hand , in two vertical bars which, when mounted on the display case, are on one side and the other in front of each set of two columns of trays.

Les caractéristiques de l'invention mentionnées ci-dessus, ainsi que d'autres, apparaîtront plus clairement à la lecture de la description suivante d'un exemple de réalisation, ladite description étant faite en relation avec les dessins joints, parmi lesquels:

  • la Fig. 1 est une vue de face du présentoir de l'invention,
  • la Fig. 2 est une vue en coupe du présentoir de l'invention, selon le plan II-II de la Fig. 1, et
  • la Fig. 3 est une vue en coupe du présentoir de l'invention, selon le plan III-III de la Fig. 1.
The characteristics of the invention mentioned above, as well as others, will appear more clearly on reading the following description of an exemplary embodiment, said description being made in relation to the accompanying drawings, among which:
  • Fig. 1 is a front view of the display of the invention,
  • Fig. 2 is a sectional view of the display of the invention, according to the plane II-II of FIG. 1, and
  • Fig. 3 is a sectional view of the display of the invention, according to the plane III-III of FIG. 1.

A la Fig. 1, le présentoir de l'invention comprend un fond vertical 1 auquel sont fixés, par exemple par accrochage, des bacs de distribution 2. Les bacs sont accrochés de manière à former au moins une colonne, par exemple, dans le mode de réalisation représenté, deux colonnes adjacentes. Des parois latérales verticales 3 et 3' qui s'étendent vers l'avant sont montées sur un socle 4. Dans la partie supérieure du caisson que forment le fond 1 et les parois latérales 3 et 3', est installée une corniche 5.In Fig. 1, the display of the invention comprises a vertical bottom 1 to which are fixed, for example by hooking, distribution trays 2. The trays are hung so as to form at least one column, for example, in the embodiment shown , two adjacent columns. Vertical side walls 3 and 3 'which extend forward are mounted on a base 4. In the upper part of the box formed by the bottom 1 and the side walls 3 and 3', a cornice 5 is installed.

Dans la partie supérieure du caisson du présentoir, peuvent être prévues des étagères 8a, 8b et 8c qui ont pour objet de présenter d'autres produits de confiserie et divers, conditionnés.In the upper part of the display case, shelves 8a, 8b and 8c can be provided which have the purpose of presenting other confectionery and various products, packaged.

Comme on peut le voir plus précisément aux Figs. 2 et 3, chaque bac de distribution 2 comprend une paroi arrière verticale 10, deux parois latérales 12 dont l'une n'est pas montrée, une paroi avant 13 qui est oblique dans sa partie inférieure et qui est parallèle à la paroi 10 dans sa partie supérieure 13' et une paroi de fond 14. La paroi arrière 10 de chaque bac est pourvue de trous (non représentés) qui permettent sa fixation, par accrochage, sur le fond 1 du caisson du présentoir.As can be seen more precisely in Figs. 2 and 3, each distribution bin 2 comprises a vertical rear wall 10, two side walls 12, one of which is not shown, a front wall 13 which is oblique in its lower part and which is parallel to the wall 10 in its upper part 13 ′ and a bottom wall 14. The rear wall 10 of each tray is provided with holes (not shown) which allow it to be fixed, by hooking, to the bottom 1 of the display case.

Selon le mode de réalisation représenté, la paroi 13 occupe les 2/3 de la hauteur du bac et la partie 13' le dernier 1/3.According to the embodiment shown, the wall 13 occupies 2/3 of the height of the tank and the part 13 'the last 1/3.

Selon un autre mode de réalisation, la partie avant 13 peut occuper les 3/4 de la hauteur du bac et la partie 13' le dernier 1/4.According to another embodiment, the front part 13 can occupy 3/4 of the height of the tank and the part 13 'the last 1/4.

A titre indicatif, la longueur de la paroi de fond 14 du bac est de 19 cm alors que la longueur de la partie supérieure est d'environ 31 cm.As an indication, the length of the bottom wall 14 of the tank is 19 cm while the length of the upper part is approximately 31 cm.

Chaque bac 2 est pourvu d'un couvercle 16 qui est prévu pour pouvoir coulisser, sensiblement horizontalement, dans des rainures 16a (visibles dans les médaillons de la Fig. 1) qui sont formées dans la partie supérieure des parois latérales 12 de chaque bac 2. Ainsi, il est possible de remplir chacun des bacs 2 sans devoir les retirer du caisson du présentoir mais en enlevant simplement le couvercle 16 correspondant.Each tray 2 is provided with a cover 16 which is designed to be able to slide, substantially horizontally, in grooves 16a (visible in the medallions of FIG. 1) which are formed in the upper part of the side walls 12 of each tray 2 Thus, it is possible to fill each of the tanks 2 without having to remove them from the display case but by simply removing the corresponding cover 16.

On notera que les parois 10, 12, 13, 14 et 16 sont par exemple en Plexiglas et sont transparentes.It will be noted that the walls 10, 12, 13, 14 and 16 are for example made of Plexiglas and are transparent.

Trois barreaux verticaux 6a, 6b et 7 sont montés à l'avant du présentoir devant les bacs 3 et 3'. Les barreaux 6a et 6b sont respectivement dans le prolongement de chaque paroi latérale 12 des bacs 2 et 2'. Le barreau 7 est monté dans la partie médiane du présentoir. Les barreaux latéraux 6a et 6b sont symétriques par rapport au barreau médian 7.Three vertical bars 6a, 6b and 7 are mounted at the front of the display in front of the trays 3 and 3 '. The bars 6a and 6b are respectively in the extension of each side wall 12 of the tanks 2 and 2 '. The bar 7 is mounted in the middle part of the display. The lateral bars 6a and 6b are symmetrical with respect to the middle bar 7.

Les barreaux latéraux 6a et 6b sont respectivement insérés dans des trous 21a, 23a du socle 4 et dans des trous 21b, 23b de la corniche 5. Le barreau 7 se place dans des trous 22a et 22b respectivement du socle 4 et de l'étagère 8a. Un dispositif de verrouillage, du type à clefs ou autres, est prévu pour verrouiller au moins l'un des barreaux 6a, 6b et 7. Selon le mode de réalisation représenté, ce dispositif de verrouillage est prévu pour être monté dans le trou 22b dans l'étagère 8a pour ainsi empêcher le coulissement vertical du barreau 7. La distance entre chaque barreau latéral 6a, 6b et le barreau médian 7 est inférieure à la largeur hors-tout d'un bac de distribution.The lateral bars 6a and 6b are respectively inserted in holes 21a, 23a of the base 4 and in holes 21b, 23b of the cornice 5. The bar 7 is placed in holes 22a and 22b respectively of the base 4 and the shelf 8a. A locking device, of the key type or the like, is provided for locking at least one of the bars 6a, 6b and 7. According to the embodiment shown, this locking device is designed to be mounted in the hole 22b in the shelf 8a to thereby prevent the vertical sliding of the bar 7. The distance between each lateral bar 6a, 6b and the median bar 7 is less than the overall width of a distribution tray.

Pour remplir un des bacs de distribution 2, on déverrouille le dispositif de fermeture du barreau 7 ce qui permet de le retirer en le faisant d'abord coulisser verticalement puis en le dégageant des trous 22a et 22b. On retire également les barreaux 6a et 6b.To fill one of the distribution tanks 2, the bar closing device 7 is unlocked, which makes it possible to remove it by first making it slide vertically then releasing it from the holes 22a and 22b. The bars 6a and 6b are also removed.

Les barreaux 6a, 6b et 7 étant retirés, le couvercle 16 de chaque bac 2 peut coulisser vers l'avant et être retiré. Il est donc possible d'avoir accès à ce bac notamment pour le remplir de produits de confiserie en vrac et/ou le nettoyer.The bars 6a, 6b and 7 being removed, the cover 16 of each tray 2 can slide forward and be removed. It is therefore possible to have access to this bin in particular for filling it with bulk confectionery products and / or cleaning it.

On notera que, sur les médaillons de la Fig. 1, on a respectivement représenté les barreaux verticaux 6b et 7 en pointillés.It will be noted that, on the medallions of FIG. 1, the vertical bars 6b and 7 are respectively shown in dotted lines.

Sur la partie avant oblique 13 est prévue une goulotte 17 légèrement inclinée vers l'avant qui permet le passage des bonbons qui se déversent dans un sachet que le consommateur présente à la sortie de la goulotte. Un clapet 18 obture la sortie de la goulotte 17 et est monté sur une charnière 19 souple renforcée par une armature métallique. D'autre part, la charnière 19 est également fixée sur la partie supérieure de la goulotte 17.On the oblique front part 13 is provided a chute 17 slightly inclined towards the front which allows the passage of the candies which pour into a sachet which the consumer presents at the outlet of the chute. A valve 18 closes the outlet of the chute 17 and is mounted on a flexible hinge 19 reinforced by a metal frame. On the other hand, the hinge 19 is also fixed on the upper part of the chute 17.

Sur la paroi avant verticale 13', il est prévu dans la partie médiane un trou de forme ovale 20 rectangulaire. Ce trou permet au consommateur à l'aide d'une pelle ou d'un râteau, non montré, de faire monter les bonbons dans la goulotte 17 et de prendre la quantité de bonbons désirée.On the vertical front wall 13 ′, a rectangular oval-shaped hole 20 is provided in the middle part. This hole allows the consumer using a shovel or a rake, not shown, to mount the candies in the chute 17 and take the desired amount of candy.

On comprendra que le présentoir selon l'invention est particulièrement bien adapté pour tous types de bonbons et friandises en vrac. Il peut être utilisé pour présenter tout autre article ou objet en vrac qui nécessite l'accès d'une personne habilitée pour remplir ou nettoyer des bacs de distribution, ces deux paramètres pouvant être effectués séparément.It will be understood that the display unit according to the invention is particularly well suited for all types of sweets and loose treats. It can be used to present any other article or object in bulk which requires the access of a person authorized to fill or clean distribution bins, these two parameters can be carried out separately.
