In addition to this, even if there is a personnel, this increases unnecessary labor force and time cost for the owners of markets, supermarkets and similar places.
  • the present invention relates to the system meeting the requirements mentioned above, resolving all of the disadvantages and bringing some additional advantages, providing automatic packaging of the products.

  • Another object of the invention is to prevent this extra labor force for the cashier in the systems where the cashier performs the packaging process and to increase the satisfaction of employees.
  • a similar object of the invention is to eliminate the extra labor force cost arising from a personnel separately working for packaging.
  • a similar object of the invention is to increase the satisfaction of customer by preventing the packaging for the customers in the markets, supermarkets and similar places where there is not a personnel separately working for the packaging.
  • Another object of the invention is to minimize the cash point lines where the dissatisfaction of customer comes out most.
  • Another object of the invention is to prevent the bag waste due to the packaging processes being performed by especially the customers in the cash points.
  • the invention relates to the system (1) bought during shopping in market, supermarket and etc. providing automatic packaging of the products, enhanced for the reduction of waiting time passed during packaging of the products by a cashier, a customer or a personnel and for the simplification of packaging process.
  • the invention is a system enhanced in a way to provide packaging of the product sent from the cash point and leaving the bag after it is in a certain weight and pulling out of the new bag.
  • Reels (2) are the section providing the products read by the barcode reader and sent from the cash point to move towards the packaging part and created with the sequentially sorting of the reels curvedly. It is made of polyethylene.
  • Product guider palette (3) is the section providing the products came through the reels (2) to move towards the product flow channel (4).
  • Product flow channel (4) is the section having connecting tabs in a way to prevent the products to overflow into the out of packaging section (5) and having at least one bag stopper (4.1) in the head part.
  • Packaging section (5) is the part including the solenoid valve (5.1) operating with the information comes from the cash point and at least one bag holder connecting tab performing the process of pulling out of the bag to be stored inside the products from the bag roller (7) and of leaving from the system when the bag is in a certain weight.
  • Product slideway (6) is the part where the bag full of products leaves the system.
  • Bag roller (7) is the component including the bags where the products are put. In case of the decrease of the bags in the bag roller, there is a sensor providing warning for the user.
  • the products sent from the cash point pass through the cash point connection protrusion (8) and reach to the reels (2).
  • the products easily passed through the reels (2) having a certain slope are directed to the product flow channel (4) with the product guider (3) whatever its arrival form and positions are. Thus, it is prevented for the products to fall out of the bag.
  • the bag mouth pulled from the bag roller (7) through the bag holder connecting tabs is opened with the bag stopper (4.1).
  • the products to fall off the product flow channel (4) fall into the opened bag.
  • the bag full of products is left to the product slideway (6) after it is in a certain weight and a new bag is pulled from the bag roller (7) automatically.
  • the bag will not leave the system.
  • the customer or cashier can take the bag from the system directly and the system can continue to operate by pulling a new bag.
  • the solenoid valve (5.1) gets the instruction that the cashier finishes the process and provides the bag full of products to be left to the product slideway (6). The system can continue to operate by pulling a new bag.
