Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Aufnahme einer Preis- und/oder Informationskassette.The invention relates to a device for receiving a price and / or information cassette.

Aus der WO 93/19448 ist eine Halterung bekannt geworden, die zur Aufnahme von Preis- oder Produktinformation vermittelnden Anzeigeelementen dient. Die Halterung besteht aus einem ersten Teil zur Aufnahme der Anzeigeelemente und einem zweiten Teil zur Befestigung der Halterung an z.B. einer Regalkante oder einem Einkaufswagen. Beide Teile sind über ein Abstützsystem miteinander verbunden, welches es erlaubt, die Halterung zur Aufnahme der Anzeigen in unterschiedliche Winkelpositionen bezüglich des Gegenstandes, an dem die Vorrichtung befestigt ist, zu arretieren. Insbesondere besteht das Abstützsystem aus einem Halteelement, einem Abstützelement und mehreren Rastelementen. Ein Endbereich des Halteelementes ist starr mit dem Befestigungsteil und schwenkbar mit der oberen Kante der Aufnahmevorrichtung verbunden. Ein Endbereich des Abstützelementes ist schwenkbar an der dem Aufnahmeteil zugewandten Seite des Befestigungsteils angebracht, während der andere Endbereich in eines der Rastelemente eingreift, die an der Rückseite der Aufnahmevorrichtung vorgesehen sind.From WO 93/19448 a holder has become known which serves to hold price or product information display elements. The holder consists of a first part for receiving the display elements and a second part for fastening the holder to, for example, a shelf edge or a shopping cart. Both parts are connected to one another via a support system, which allows the holder for holding the displays to be locked in different angular positions with respect to the object to which the device is attached. In particular, the support system consists of a holding element, a support element and several locking elements. An end region of the holding element is rigidly connected to the fastening part and pivotably connected to the upper edge of the receiving device. One end region of the support element is pivotally attached to the side of the fastening part which faces the receiving part, while the other end region engages in one of the latching elements which are provided on the rear side of the receiving device.

Nachteilig bei dieser Konstruktion ist die geringe Stabilität der Aufnahmevorrichtung, wenn die Haltevorrichtung eine große Neigung gegenüber der Normalen aufweist. In diesem Fall liegen die Kontaktstellen von Halteelement und Abstützelement im oberen Bereich der Aufnahmevorrichtung relativ nahe beisammen, so daß der untere Bereich der Aufnahmevorrichtung quasi frei, d.h. nicht abgestützt ist.A disadvantage of this construction is the low stability of the receiving device if the holding device has a large inclination with respect to the normal. In this case, the contact points of the holding element and the support element are relatively close together in the upper region of the receiving device, so that the lower region of the receiving device is virtually free, i.e. is not supported.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung vorzuschlagen, die es erlaubt, eine Preis- und/oder Informationskassette sicher in unterschiedlichen Winkelpositionen bezüglich der Normalen anzubringen. Die Normale ist im vorliegenden Fall durch den Gegenstand vorgegebenen, an dem die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung befestigt ist.The invention is based on the object of proposing a device which allows a price and / or information cassette to be securely attached in different angular positions with respect to the normal. The normal is specified in the present case by the object to which the device according to the invention is attached.

Die Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, daß das Gehäuse aus einem ersten Teil und einem zweiten, schwenkbar mit dem ersten Teil verbundenen Teil besteht, daß in einem Endbereich des ersten Teils ein Trägerelement mit einer Rasthalterung vorgesehen ist und daß in einem Endbereich des zweiten Teils ein Trägerelement mit in vorgegebenen Abständen angeordneten Rastausnehmungen angeordnet ist, wobei durch das Einrasten der Rasthalterung in die unterschiedlichen Rastausnehmungen verschiedene Rastpositionen definiert sind und wobei das Trägerelement mit den Rastausnehmungen - je nach eingestellter Rastposition - entweder die Verlängerung des Trägerelementes des ersten Teils bildet oder innerhalb des Gehäuses verläuft.The object is achieved in that the housing consists of a first part and a second part which is pivotally connected to the first part, that a carrier element with a latching holder is provided in an end region of the first part and that a carrier element is provided in an end region of the second part is arranged with predetermined recesses, whereby different latching positions are defined by the latching of the latching holder in the different latching recesses, and the carrier element with the latching recesses - depending on the latching position set - either forms the extension of the carrier element of the first part or runs inside the housing .

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung ist vorgesehen, daß erster Teil und zweiter Teil auf der den Trägerelementen gegenüberliegenden Seite über ein flexibles Teil miteinander verbunden sind. Bei dem flexiblen Teil handelt es sich beispielsweise um einen Filmscharnier.
Eine Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung schlägt vor, daß an dem zweiten Teil Haltemittel vorgesehen sind, die zur Fixierung der Preis- und/oder Informationskassette dienen. Insbesondere kann es sich hierbei um Ausbuchtungen handeln, die in entsprechend ausgebildete Nuten der Preis- und/oder Informationskassette eingreifen.
According to an advantageous development of the device according to the invention, it is provided that the first part and the second part are connected to one another on the side opposite the carrier elements via a flexible part. The flexible part is, for example, a film hinge.
An embodiment of the device according to the invention proposes that holding means are provided on the second part for fixing the price and / or information cassette serve. In particular, these can be bulges which engage in appropriately designed grooves in the price and / or information cassette.

Besonders kostengünstig ist es, wenn das Gehäuse aus extrudiertem Kunststoff besteht. Ein besonderer Vorteil dieser Extrusionsverfahren ist es, daß unterschiedliche Kunststoffmaterialien gleichzeitig verarbeitet werden können. So wird im vorliegenden Fall beispielsweise im Sichtbereich der Aufnahmevorrichtung ein transparenter Kunststoff verwendet, während alle übrigen Bereiche aus undurchsichtigem Kunststoff gefertigt sind.It is particularly cost-effective if the housing consists of extruded plastic. A particular advantage of these extrusion processes is that different plastic materials can be processed at the same time. In the present case, for example, a transparent plastic is used in the visible area of the receiving device, while all other areas are made of opaque plastic.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Weiterbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung handelt es sich bei der Preis- und/oder Informationskassette um eine elektronische Kassette. Als besonders günstig erweist es sich bei dieser Anwendung, wenn an dem ersten Teil eine ins Innere des Gehäuses weisende Nut zur Aufnahme des Antennenkabels vorgesehen ist. Diese Ausgestaltung bringt für das Antennenkabel eine Schutzfunktion und trägt darüber hinaus zum ansprechenden, klaren Design der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung bei.According to a preferred development of the device according to the invention, the price and / or information cassette is an electronic cassette. In this application, it proves to be particularly favorable if a groove facing the interior of the housing for receiving the antenna cable is provided on the first part. This configuration provides a protective function for the antenna cable and also contributes to the appealing, clear design of the device according to the invention.

Besonders günstig ist es, wenn bereits vorhandene Befestigungsmittel zur Anbringung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung genutzt werden können. So sind üblicherweise an den Regalkanten von Warenhäusern Schienen vorgesehen, in die Preis- und/oder Informationsetiketten eingeschoben werden können. Zwecks Befestigung der Aufnahmevorrichtung sind gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung an dem ersten Teil Aufnahmeöffnungen vorgesehen, welche zur Aufnahme eines Adapters dienen. Dieser Adapter ist so dimensioniert und ausgestaltet, daß er in die üblicherweise verwendeten Schienen an den Regalkanten eingeschoben oder eingeclipst werden kann.It is particularly favorable if existing fastening means can be used to attach the device according to the invention. For example, rails are usually provided on the shelf edges of department stores, into which price and / or information labels can be inserted. According to an advantageous development of the device according to the invention, receptacle openings are provided on the first part for the purpose of fastening the receptacle device and are used to hold an adapter. This adapter is dimensioned and designed so that it can be inserted or clipped into the rails that are normally used on the shelf edges.

Vorzugsweise besteht der Adapter aus einem Mittelteil und zwei unter einem gewissen Winkel stehenden Teilelementen, die in die Aufnahmeöffnungen des ersten Teils eingreifen. Durch diese Ausgestaltung wird eine Klemmung zwischen Adapter und Preis- und/oder Informationskassette erreicht.The adapter preferably consists of a central part and two partial elements standing at a certain angle, which engage in the receiving openings of the first part. This configuration results in a clamping between the adapter and the price and / or information cassette.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung sind Endkappen vorgesehen, die die Seitenbereiche der Vorrichtung abschließen. Durch das Aufbringen der Endkappen ist die Preis- und/oder Informationskassette im Innern der Vorrichtung wirkungsvoll gegen Verschmutzungen jeglicher Art geschützt.According to an advantageous development of the device according to the invention, end caps are provided which close off the side regions of the device. By attaching the end caps, the price and / or information cassette inside the device is effectively protected against soiling of any kind.

Insbesondere bestehen die Endkappen aus jeweils zumindest zwei Abdeckelementen, die fächerförmig zueinander angeordnet sind. Hierdurch wird - unabhängig von der gewählten Winkelstellung der Aufnahmevorrichtung - ein Abdecken der Seitenbereiche erzielt.In particular, the end caps each consist of at least two cover elements which are arranged in a fan shape relative to one another. In this way - regardless of the selected angular position of the receiving device - the side areas are covered.

Besonders einfach und kostengünstig ist es, die Endkappen im Spritzgußverfahren herzustellen. Der Verbindungsbereich zwischen den beiden fächerförmig angeordneten Abdeckelementen wird - wie im Falle der Aufnahmevorrichtung - von einem flexiblen Teil, einem sog. Filmscharnier, gebildet.It is particularly simple and inexpensive to manufacture the end caps using the injection molding process. The connection area between the two fan-shaped cover elements is - as in the case of the receiving device - formed by a flexible part, a so-called film hinge.

Fig. 1 zeigt einen Querschnitt durch eine Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung. Das Gehäuse 1 besteht aus einem ersten Teil 2 und einem zweiten Teil 3, die über ein flexibles Teil 4 miteinander verbunden sind. In den Bereichen der oberen und unteren Stirnseite des zweiten Teils sind Halteelemente 10 zur Fixierung der Preis- und/oder Informationskassette vorgesehen. Die untere Stirnseite des zweiten Teils 3, die im folgenden mit Trägerelement 7 bezeichnet ist, weist in gewissen Abständen Rastausnehmungen 8 auf. Die untere Stirnseite des ersten Teils 2, die im folgenden als Trägerelement 5 tituliert ist, hat an ihrem freien Ende eine Rasthalterung 6, die in die Rastausnehmungen 8 des Trägerelementes 7 einpaßbar ist.Fig. 1 shows a cross section through an embodiment of the device according to the invention. The housing 1 consists of a first part 2 and a second part 3, which are connected to one another via a flexible part 4. In the areas of the upper and lower end face of the second part, holding elements 10 are provided for fixing the price and / or information cassette. The lower end face of the second part 3, which is referred to below as the carrier element 7, has latching recesses 8 at certain intervals. The lower end face of the first part 2, which is hereinafter referred to as carrier element 5, has at its free end a latching bracket 6 which can be fitted into the latching recesses 8 of the carrier element 7.

An der Vorderseite des zweiten Teils 3 ist - wie bereits an vorhergehender Stelle erwähnt - ein transparenter Sichtbereich 11 vorgesehen. Der erste Teil 2, über den das Gehäuse 1 an einer Regalkante 18 oder einem sonstigen Gegenstand befestigbar ist, weist Aufnahmeöffnungen 14 zur Aufnahme einer Schiene bzw. eines Adapters 15 auf. Weiterhin ist an dem ersten Teil 2 eine Nut 12 zur Aufnahme eines in der Fig. 1 nicht gesondert dargestellten Antennenkabels 13 angebracht.On the front of the second part 3, as already mentioned at the previous point, a transparent viewing area 11 is provided. The first part 2, via which the housing 1 can be fastened to a shelf edge 18 or another object, has receiving openings 14 for receiving a rail or an adapter 15. Furthermore, a groove 12 is provided on the first part 2 for receiving an antenna cable 13, which is not shown separately in FIG. 1.

In Fig. 2 ist ein Querschnitt durch die in Fig. 1 dargestellte Ausführungsform mit Preis- und/oder Informationskassette 9 in einer ersten Winkelstellung (0°) dargestellt. Zusätzlich zu der in Fig. 1 gezeigten Darstellung sind hier die Preis- und/oder Informationskassette 9 sowie der Adapter 15 zu sehen.FIG. 2 shows a cross section through the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 with price and / or information cassette 9 in a first angular position (0 °). In addition to the illustration shown in FIG. 1, the price and / or information cassette 9 and the adapter 15 can be seen here.

Fig. 3 und Fig. 4 zeigen die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung bei zwei Winkelstellungen, die von der 0°-Stellung abweichen. Darüber hinaus ist in diesen Figuren eine der beiden Endkappen 19 dargestellt. Wie den Figuren Fig. 6a und Fig. 6b zu entnehmen ist, besteht eine Endkappe 19 im wesentlichen aus zwei Abdeckelementen 22,23, die über ein flexibles Teil 20 miteinander verbunden sind. Durch die fächerförmige Anordnung der beiden Abdeckelemente 22, 23 wird erreicht, daß die Seitenbereiche der Aufnahmevorrichtung bei jeder der möglichen Winkelstellungen der beiden Teile 2,3 des Gehäuses 1 vollständig abgedeckt sind.Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 show the device according to the invention at two angular positions that deviate from the 0 ° position. In addition, one of the two end caps 19 is shown in these figures. As can be seen from FIGS. 6a and 6b, an end cap 19 essentially consists of two cover elements 22, 23 which are connected to one another via a flexible part 20. The fan-shaped arrangement of the two cover elements 22, 23 ensures that the side regions of the receiving device are completely covered at each of the possible angular positions of the two parts 2, 3 of the housing 1.

Wie aus Fig. 3 und Fig. 4 ersichtlich ist, weist die Endkappe 19 eine Ausnehmung 21 auf. Diese dient zum Durchführen des Antennenkabels 13 bei der Anordnung von elektronischen Preis- und/oder Informationskassetten 9 innerhalb des Gehäuses 1.As can be seen from FIGS. 3 and 4, the end cap 19 has a recess 21. This is used to pass the antenna cable 13 when electronic price and / or information cassettes 9 are arranged inside the housing 1.

In Fig. 5 ist ein Querschnitt durch die in Fig. 1 dargestellte Ausführungsform mit einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung des Adapters 15 dargestellt. Der Adapter 15 besteht aus einem Mittelteil 16 mit zwei zueinander gewinkelt angeordneten Teilelementen 17 in beiden Endbereichen. Durch die von 180° abweichende Winkelstellung der beiden Teilelemente 17 wird eine Klemmung zwischen Adapter 15 und Aufnahmeöffnungen 14 erreicht, wodurch eine Relativbewegung zwischen Aufnahmevorrichtung und Adapter 15 verhindert wird.5 shows a cross section through the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 with an advantageous embodiment of the adapter 15. The adapter 15 consists of a central part 16 with two sub-elements 17 arranged at an angle to one another in both end regions. Due to the angular position of the two sub-elements 17, which deviates from 180 °, a clamping between adapter 15 and receiving openings 14 is achieved, whereby a relative movement between receiving device and adapter 15 is prevented.
