Definitions

  • the present invention relates in general to devices for orderly placing packed goods on a shelf and for orderly advance the goods toward the front edge of the shelves at every pick-up of the package in sight at the front and in particular to a spring pusher of the queued packages so disposed on the shelves.
  • the latter may be inclined such that the packages may freely slide by gravity on the inclined surface until the front package is arrested in its slide by a stop railing that may be simply mounted in holes of the shelves at regular intervals, aligned along the front edge of the shelf.
  • the packages may not slide to the front if the surface is not sufficiently inclined, or they may assume awkward orientations. More in general, an inclination of the shelves has numerous drawbacks, that may be incompatible with other requirements and it is generally difficult that a given inclination be optimal for packages and/or goods of markedly different weight and staticity characteristics.
  • pusher of packaged goods aligned along the depth of a substantially horizontal shelf.
  • the pushers are generally installed in the defined sectors in which the shelf is divided and commonly a spring biased pusher or slider, free of sliding in a guide, pushes from behind the queued packages disposed in the sector of the shelf toward a stopper installed along the front edge of the shelf.
  • the travelling slider or known spring device is provided with at least a pin stopper that when reaching the rearmost travel position engages a hole, from which it may be disengaged by slightly lifting the slider after completing the replenishment of the shelf sector with new packages.
  • Document GB 2 290 077 A discloses a latch for a pusher on a merchandising shelf according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the device of this invention has a guide along which a slider may run recalled by spring toward a rest position at the front edge of the guide.
  • the novel arrangement of retention of the slider in its rearmost travel position along the guide comprises a pin feeler sustained by an arm capable of elastically flexing sideway.
  • the feeler after sliding along the outer flank of at least a protrusion of the guide near the rearmost end of travel of the slider, engages itself into a catching loop of the protrusion.
  • the protrusion has the shape of a two branch fork slanted at an angle in respect to a longitudinal axis of the guide, defining a semicircular catch between the two branches of the fork and has an "inlet” branch, over the outer flank surface of which slides the pin feeler upon pushing toward the rearmost end of travel the slider to block it, that is shorter than the "outlet” branch, on the inner flank surface of which slides the feeler when releasing the spring biased slider from its catch.
  • the two branches of different length of the fork join to form a semicircular loop or catch in which the feeler is securely retained, thus preventing the biasing spring to recall the slider to the front end position of the guide.
  • the flexibility of the arm that sustains the pin feeler permits the pin feeler, normally held at a certain position over the guide, to track the diverging outer flank surface of the inlet branch of the slanted fork-shaped catch until, upon reaching the end of the branch, the so flexed sustaining arm snaps back to its unyielded position bringing the pin feeler into the semicircular catching loop.
  • the elastically held pin feeler slides along the inner flank of the longer "outlet” branch of the inclined fork until it reaches the end of the outlet branch of the fork when the elastic suspension arm of the feeler may elastically snap back to its unyielded position, thus releasing the slider that can then be recalled toward the front of the shelf by the biasing spring of the device.
  • a spring pusher according to the present invention is commonly mounted in a compartment of a shelf, in which packages of a certain good are to be placed as shown in Figure 1 .
  • the device is basically composed of a guide 1 along which a slider 2 may slide, biased by a coiled tape spring 3.
  • the guide may be commonly provided with snap-action clips 6a, 6b for fastening onto mounting profiles present along the front and rear of the shelf.
  • the slider 2 has a projecting arm 4 that may elastically flex sideways, sustaining a feeler pin 5 at a certain height above the guide 1.
  • the guide 1 has at least an upright protrusion 6 having, in plan view, the shape of an inclined fork that defines a catching loop for the pin feeler 5 in order to catch/uncatch the slider 2 when it is pushed back, by pulling out (unwinding) the biasing coiled tape spring 3.
  • the guide may have a second protrusion 7, bisecting the catching loop of the fork and shaped in a way to prevent the pin feeler 5 from being unduly led to exit from the catching loop of the fork-like protrusion upon pushing the slider 2 rearward to block it.
  • the slider 2 of the spring pusher of this invention is catched and released as illustrated in the series of Figures from 2 to 10.
  • the pin feeler 5 hooks in the semicircular catching loop of the fork protrusion 6, securely preventing the slider 2 from being recalled toward the front of the shelf by the stretched-out coiled tape spring.
  • the spring biased slider 2 may be easily released, as illustrated in Figures 7 to 10 .
  • the biasing coiled tape spring 3 may be a common steel tape coil spring, having its distendable end fastened to the front end of the guide, the steel tape passing underneath the slider upon unwinding from its coiled portion that is carried in a containment space at the rear of the slider. All other parts of the device may be of molded plastic material fabricated by injection molding or, alternatively, they may be fabricated with a metal alloy by casting and/or by press molding.
