Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a consignor for a food transport trolley.
  • the device includes a housing mounted on the carriage, said housing being adapted to retain anchoring means located at the end of a chain itself secured to another carriage.
  • the housing is adapted to receive a coin to release the anchoring means of the previous carriage which can then leave the housing, and release the carriage.
  • the housing is equipped with two pivoting hooks mounted opposite one another and which have two hooking ends and opposite two receiving ends. The hooking ends are intended to retain the anchoring means together when they are close to each other, while the receiving ends are spaced apart from each other; and conversely, the receiving ends are adapted to receive the coin to spread the fastening ends and release the anchoring means, while said receiving ends are brought closer to each other to imprison the coin.
  • the housing further comprises locking means biased by a spring which keep the attachment ends spaced apart from each other when the anchoring means leave the housing.
  • a disadvantage of such recorders is essentially the number of parts needed to achieve and especially in the accuracy and difficulties of assembly. As a result, they are relatively expensive to manufacture.
  • a problem that arises and that aims to solve the present invention is to provide a consigner that can be manufactured at a lower cost without degrading its mechanical characteristics and in particular resistance to burglary.
  • the present invention proposes a consigner for a food transport trolley, said consigner comprising a housing adapted to retain anchoring means, said anchoring means being adapted to leave said housing when said housing receives a calibrated element, said housing comprising two pivoting hooks mounted facing one another, said two hooks having on the one hand, two attachment ends adapted to retain said anchoring means between them when they are close to each other and on the other hand opposite, two receiving ends adapted to receive said calibrated element to separate said hooking ends and release said anchoring means, said housing further comprising means locks adapted to engage between said hooking ends when said anchoring means leave said housing so that enir said fastening ends spaced apart from each other;
  • said locking means comprise a resiliently flexible flange, said flexible flange having a fastening edge engaged in said housing and a free edge opposite said fastening edge engaging between said fastening ends; and said anchoring means are adapted to bear against said flexible wing to cause it to deflect and
  • a feature of the invention lies in the implementation of an elastically flexible flange which forms both locking means and resilient means able to extend between the two fastening ends when it s extends into a position of equilibrium.
  • the two attachment ends are held apart from each other.
  • the anchoring means drives in motion these anchoring means against the flexible wing which then flexes and deviates from the two hooking ends for the release.
  • the two hooking ends are close together and hang the anchoring means, while the two receiving ends s spread by causing the coin coinage to be ejected.
  • said housing is advantageously equipped with flexible folding flaps elastically bearing against said hooks to exert forces capable of bringing said fastening ends towards one another.
  • said elastically flexible wing and said folding blades are formed together in one piece.
  • the flexible wing and the folding blades are cut and then formed in a single metal plate.
  • said housing further comprises elastically flexible ejection blades extending between said receiving ends and which facilitate the ejection of the coin when leaving the housing.
  • said elastically flexible flange and said ejection blades are also advantageously formed together in one piece.
  • the flexible wing, the folding blades and the ejection blades are likely to be cut and formed in a single metal plate.
  • the only metal plate cut and formed is adapted to fulfill three functions of the consigner that were previously provided by a plurality of parts and elastic means. Therefore, not only the number of parts is reduced but also the assembly is simplified which allows to lower even more the production costs of such recorders.
  • said hooks defining a mean plane
  • said fixing edge of said flexible wing is advantageously located on one side of said middle plane in the vicinity of said receiving ends, while said flexible wing extends by cutting said mean plane between said hooks.
  • the flexible wing which then extends inclined relative to the middle plane and in large part between the hooks opposite, has its free edge extended towards the entrance of the housing and in addition is relatively compact at the inside of the case. Indeed, the flexible wing extends into a functional space and necessary for the operation of the device.
  • said flexible wing has a return forming said opposite free edge so as to facilitate the guiding of the flexible wing against the anchoring means which are driven in translation against it and which then causes its deflection outside the space between the two attachment ends.
  • the fixing edge of the flexible wing and the opposite free edge are then both located on one side of said mean plane; the flexible wing then being bent and bearing against the anchoring means.
  • said flexible wing has a support plate which extends said return by cutting said middle plane so as to provide the housing inlet a sufficiently large contact surface to receive the anchoring means and provide a guide of the flexible wing in a race identical to each insertion.
  • a support plate which extends said return by cutting said middle plane so as to provide the housing inlet a sufficiently large contact surface to receive the anchoring means and provide a guide of the flexible wing in a race identical to each insertion.
  • said opposite free edge advantageously has two opposite slice portions, against which said attachment ends are adapted to bear when the flexible flange freely extends between the attachment ends.
  • said housing comprises a bottom, an opposite cover and an inlet of the anchoring means made between said bottom and said cover and which opens between said attachment ends, and said fixing edge of said flexible wing is engaged in said bottom and towards said receiving ends, while said opposite free edge extends towards said cover and towards said inlet of the anchoring means.
  • Figure 1 illustrates an element 10 cut and formed for example in a plate of stainless steel spring. This element 10 will first be described in detail before explaining its operation in a carriage-type cart.
  • This element 10 defines a first average plane P and it comprises a flexible wing 12 attached to a base 14, which base 14 has two lateral portions 16, 18.
  • the element 10 has a front portion 20 and a rear portion 22, the flexible wing 12 extending inclinedly from the rear portion 22 to the front portion 20 and projecting from the first mid-plane P.
  • the two side portions 16, 18 respectively have a flange 24, 26 and in the flanges 24 26 are provided on the one hand with a pair of folding tongues 28, 30 which extend from the rear 22 towards the front 20 towards the inside of the element 20 and in front of the flexible wing 12 and on the other hand, a pair of ejector blades 32, 34 which themselves are folded inwards and backwards 22 of the element 10.
  • the ejector blades 32, 34 also although the flap tongues 28, 30 are respectively symmetrical to one another with respect to a plane V perpendicular to the first average plane P which also comes to cut the flexible wing 12 symmetrically.
  • the ejector blades 32, 34 and the flap tongues 28, 30 respectively terminate in a curved free end 35 substantially perpendicular to the first middle plane P.
  • the flexible wing 12 has at one of its ends a return 36 which forms a free edge and which is extended by a support plate 38 which cuts in an inclined manner the first middle plane P and at the other of its ends lamellae 40, 42 whose edges 44, 46 are respectively in engagement with the lateral portions 18, 16.
  • the flexible wing 12 also has two opposite lateral edge portions 48, 50 at the return 36. Also, these portions of FIG. Tranche 48, 50 define U-shaped housing whose function will be detailed below.
  • Such an element 10 is relatively complex but made from a single metal plate whose nature, stainless steel spring for example, provides elastically flexible cut and bent portions. This is particularly the case of the wing 12 which is movable in a direction substantially perpendicular to the first plane P, and pairs of tongues 28, 30 and ejection blades 32, 34, which are movable in directions included in planes parallel to the first middle plane P. In the following description will be specified the function of the aforementioned folded parts.
  • FIG. 3 On the first of which found, housed in a housing 52, the element 10 seen in section along the vertical plane shown in Figure 1.
  • the housing 52 has a bottom 51 in which is secured the element 10, and an opposite lid 53.
  • the lid 53 is mounted on the carriage and pointing downward, while the bottom is oriented upwards.
  • the housing 52 has an inlet 54 of a calibrated element 55, anchoring means 56 inserted through an inlet 58 of the anchoring means which is formed in the housing 52 to the opposite of the inlet of the calibrated element 54.
  • the anchoring means 56 are retained inside the housing 52 by means of two hooks 60, 62 facing respectively pivotally mounted about two pivots 64, 66.
  • the hooks 60, 62 have two attachment ends 68, 70 and opposite two receiving ends 72, 74.
  • the two attachment ends 68, 70 respectively have a lug 75, the two lugs 75 being opposite one of the other for cooperating with the U side portions 48, 50 as will be explained below.
  • the housing 52 is configured so that the anchoring means 56 can cooperate with the calibrated element 55 as will be explained below.
  • the attachment ends 68, 70 deviate from one another to release the anchoring means 56 and thereby imprison the calibrated element 55 in the housing 76 as illustrated in Figures 4 and 5 which will now be compared in comparison with the preceding figures.
  • the free wing 12 is released by pivoting, so that its return 36 passes through the second middle plane M which cuts the hooks 60, 62 and this, before the anchoring means 56 have been completely removed from the 58.
  • the anchoring means 56 release the hooking ends 68, 70, these tend to come closer to one another under the effect of the tongues 28, 30 and through their curved free end 35, while the free wing 12 is itself released substantially across the second average plane M, so that the lugs 75 are engaged respectively in the U-shaped housing portions of side edge 48, 50.
  • the inner edge of the attachment ends 68, 70 abuts against the side edge portions 48, 50 of the free wing 12, and thus allow to maintain remote hooking ends 68, 70 of the hooks facing 60, 62 and thereby blocking the two receiving ends 72, 74 in a close position and thus to imprison the calibrated element 55.
  • the calibrated element 55 could be released only under the double condition that, sequentially, the attachment ends 68, 70 are kept spaced from one another so that their stub 75 releases the lateral edge portions. 48, 50 in U and that, the flexible wing 12 is bent to no longer be engaged in between the attachment ends 68, 70.
  • the front end 84 of the anchoring means 56 when the cut and formed element is devoid of ejection blades, and that, moreover, no other complementary spring means has been provided, but that on the other hand the housing 52 has been adapted, the front end 84 of the anchoring means 56, during its stroke, bears against the calibrated element 55 and then at the end of the stroke, ejects the calibrated element 55 when the ends of the reception 72, 74 are discarded.
