Definitions
- the present invention relates to an information terminal according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Such information terminals are used, for example, to provide a potential buyer of goods with information about the product of interest, for which purpose corresponding data are stored, for example in the computer or on the Internet, which can be called up, for example, using the keyboard and displayed on the screen.
- the information terminal is often equipped with a printer, so that the interested customer can receive the product displayed on the screen or the information about it on paper.
- these information terminals have proven their worth. However, their function has so far been limited to the scope described.
- the information terminal By connecting the information terminal to functional furniture, the information terminal can also be used as a cash register terminal.
- a cash drawer and a keyboard are arranged in the functional furniture and can be connected to the computer of the information terminal, so that a cash register system is created overall. This means that an information terminal can be used as a checkout system with very little effort.
- a USB interface on the computer can be used to connect the components.
- the functional furniture can be removed using the cash drawer and the keyboard, so that the information terminal is used exclusively for its first purpose.
- this is provided at least on one side with castors, which are preferably lockable.
- the functional furniture according to an advantageous embodiment, is equipped with shelves, the access side to the shelves being open or closable by means of a door.
- a recess can be provided on the functional terminal, in which the cash drawer is accommodated, so that the lid of the cash drawer is flush with the top cover of the functional furniture.
- the functional furniture is provided with a foldable pivoting base which is folded down in the use position, so that it is essentially in front of the screen of the information terminal.
- the input keyboard which can be connected to the information terminal by means of a cable, can be placed on the swivel base.
- a wireless connection of the keyboard to the information terminal is also conceivable.
- the swivel floor can be swiveled back onto the upper deck of the furniture body, so that the functional furniture forms a compact, easy-to-move unit.
- the shape of the functional furniture is adapted to the information terminal, so that there is a uniform overall impression in the functional position.
- belt straps can be provided, which are attached to the functional furniture and loop around the information terminal or its housing.
- Belt tensioners are provided which allow the straps to be easily lashed down.
- belt straps instead of belt straps, other fastening means can also be provided, for example in the form of snap bolts or the like, which fulfill the same function.
- the straps are advantageous in that they are an afterthought Allow existing information terminals to be equipped with functional furniture without the need for special fastening elements.
- buffer elements for example in the form of felt strips or the like, are attached to the contact surfaces touching the housing of the information terminal.
- the printer previously provided for documenting the information called up at the information terminal can be connected to the input keyboard or the cash register computer, so that an invoice or a cash receipt can be printed out without any problems.
- Figure 1 shows an information terminal according to the invention in a front view
- Figure 2 is a plan view of the information terminal
- Figure 3 is a side view of the information terminal
- Figure 4 shows a detail of the information terminal in a front view.
- FIGS. 1 to 3 An information terminal is shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, which is provided overall with reference number 1.
- This information terminal 1 has a housing 1 a, a standing housing in the present exemplary embodiment, and one Screen 2, a computer, not shown, and an input device in the form of a keyboard 3.
- the information terminal 1 is detachably connected to a functional piece of furniture 4 which can accommodate a cash drawer 5 and an input keyboard 6.
- the cash drawer 5 and the input keyboard 6 can be connected to the terminal via a cable 16, for example via a USB connector.
- the screen of the information terminal then serves as a screen for the cash register.
- the terminal computer is also used as a cash register computer.
- the functional furniture 4 preferably has lockable castors 9 on one side, while on the other hand it stands on a base plate 11.
- the functional furniture 4 is designed as shelving furniture and accommodates shelves 7 that are freely accessible from the inside in the interior.
- the functional furniture 4 is closed at the top by a top shelf 15.
- the top floor 15 has a cutout that merges into a receptacle 8, in which the cash drawer 5 is inserted.
- FIG. 2 shows very clearly, an engagement 18 is provided in the area of the receptacle 8, through which the cash drawer 5 can be removed when not in use.
- the input keyboard 6 rests on a swivel base 13 which is attached to the body of the functional furniture 4 via hinges 19 (FIG. 2) and, in the use position, runs flush with the top base 15.
- two belt straps 10 are connected to the body of the functional furniture 4, which loop around the information terminal 1 and are fastened by means of a belt tensioner 20, which are arranged on the functional furniture 4.
- a cable passage 17 is provided, through which the cables 16 can also be guided into the interior of the information terminal 1, so that a connection can be established with the computer located therein.
- FIG. 3 which shows a side view of the information terminal 1, in front of which a schematically represented operator is positioned, it can be seen that the functional furniture 4 has a handle bar 12, by means of which the functional furniture 4 can then be easily lifted and moved when it is detached from the information terminal 1.
- This handle bar 12 is located on the side facing the information terminal 1 and facing away from the rollers 9.
- FIG. 4 shows the functional furniture 4 in a non-use position.
- the swivel path of the swivel plate 13 with the connected strut 14 can be seen in the illustration, the latter resting in the folded position on the swivel plate 13, while the latter is then supported on the top floor 15.
- the belt straps 10, which are arranged at a distance from one another, can be rolled up and fastened to the body of the functional furniture 4.
