Definitions

  • This invention is concerned with a cabinet for holding standardized consumer products such as packets of cigarettes, boxes of cigars and cheroots, tins of candies, etc., particularly for tobacconists' and similar retail shops.
  • tobacconists' shops and other retail shops are mostly equipped with open cabinets having a number of stacked shelves.
  • Each shelf has a low parapet at its front, and the boxes rest on the shelf in several close-packed rows or lines extending at right angles to the parapet and arranged side by side, so that the parapet prevents the first box in the row from accidentally dropping over the edge of the shelf, while allowing the labeling of the product to remain visible.
  • the shelves are sloped downwardly toward the open front of the cabinet, and a heavy roller lies on the shelf behind each row of boxes. As each box is lifted from the front of the row, the roller will roll down by gravity and shove the row forward against the parapet.
  • spring-biased bumper means are sometimes used, and in this case the shelves maybe horizontal.
  • GB 645 212 discloses a display and/or storing cabinet suitable for shop counters, which comprises a container with at least one compartment in which articles may be disposed one behind another on shelves or guides, and which has an open end inclined or stepped to facilitate the removal of the nearest article.
  • At least one pusher device comprising a pusher is slidably mounted on guide rods or strips and urged forward by a spring.
  • a limit stop prevents the direct discharge of the articles through the open end.
  • a rib may be fitted, The size of the compartments may be varied by the use of partitions having spaced grooves for locating other partitions.
  • the pusher devices and/or the guides may be removable and adjustable along front and rear rails, being provided with pegs to fit in spaced holes in the rails.
  • the limit stops may be readily removable to facilitate insertion of the articles.
  • Another object is to provide such a cabinet at a manufacturing cost that is equal or lower than the typical cost of an equivalent prior art cabinet.
  • a cabinet comprises a frame 10 rising from a base 12 and comprising two parallel, vertical side walls 14, 16, which are joined together at their ends by horizontal crosspieces 18 and 20, and at the back by a vertical backboard 22.
  • Shelves such as 24, 26, 28 extend between side walls 14, 16.
  • the shelves have respective front parapets such as 28 and back parapets such as 30, and are supported on pegs or other conventional brackets attached to the inside faces of the side walls, not shown for simplicity.
  • the front edges 34, 36 of side walls 14, 16 are backwardly inclined from the vertical, preferably at an angle of 8° to 10°, so that the side walls have identical tapered shapes, generally trapezoidal.
  • the parapet of each shelf is substantially aligned with the front edges 34, 36 of the side walls at its respective height and, in consequence of the tapered side walls, each parapet is staggered back by a few centimeters with respect to the underlying shelf, as can be seen on Fig. 2 .
  • the shelves also are progressively shorter starting from the lowest shelf towards the top of the cabinet.
  • Each shelf is intended to carry several rows of boxes 40 extending side by side at right angles from the front parapet toward the back of the shelf, as shown on Figs. 1 and 2 .
  • the rows will normally fill the entire width of a shelf.
  • the lower portion of the first box in each row will be hidden by the front parapet, but its upper portion and its labeling will be visible to a person standing in front of the cabinet.
  • the first box in each row will project beyond the edge of the overlying shelf, and therefore will be readily accessible for grasping by approaching the top of the box from above and the pulling the box obliquely out, without having to insert one's fingertips into the gap between two superposed shelves and without interfering with the shelf above. Consequently, no free maneuvring room is required above the row of boxes, and the shelves can therefore be arranged more close-packed.
  • the overall inner space of the cabinet can therefore be used more fully, since a larger variety of products can be stored in the cabinet.
  • the shelves are preferably arranged with a slight slope, as shown in Figs.1 and 2 , and a roller of iron or lead such as 42 is placed behind each row of boxes (only visible in Fig. 2 ).
  • the roller will roll under gravity and will continuously shove the row forward to abut against the parapet, while the first box is pulled out.
  • the shelves may be horizontal, and in that case each row may be pushed by a spring-biased bumper, as obvious for a person skilled in the art (not shown).
  • the majority of the shelves, such as 24, 26, have parapets of equal height and are equally spaced in the vertical direction, consistently with the fact that many products have more or less uniform sizes, such as packets of cigarettes. However, some of the shelves may have taller parapets and be more widely spaced in height, in order to display bigger boxes, such as boxes of cigars. This is shown on Figs. 1 and 2 for the two top shelves in the cabinet. Generally speaking, the spacing of the shelves and the geometry of their parapets are not limited, and only depend on the types and sizes of the products that are expected to be carried.
  • the shelves are provided with dividing means having the task of maintaining the rows of products separate and aligned (not shown on Fig. 2 ).
  • a preferred arrangement is shown on Fig. 3 , which represents shelf 24 as viewed in perspective from behind.
  • the dividing means comprise rods 50, for instance aluminum rods, each having one end received in a respective dead hole 52 made in the inside face of front parapet 30 of the shelf. The opposite end is received in a respective open slot 54 cut in the back parapet 32, which arrangement, however, is not according to the invention. It will be appreciated that the dividing rods as well as the holes and slots into which the rods engage can be easily and cheaply manufactured by means of elementary operations with very simple tools.
  • the back parapets of the shelves could be dispensed with, and in that case the back ends of rods 50, instead of being held in positioning slots 54, are received in holes made in backboard 22 (not shown).
  • the cabinet according to the invention can accommodate a much larger number of boxed products, for a given front surface, while maintaining ease and quickness in picking out each product. It should also be evident that this object is achieved without increasing the cost of manufacture; on the contrary, by using dividing means consisting of simple straight rods, the cost of manufacture is reduced.
