advanced.
2) A l'extérieur, par du personnel employé de 1 'ouverture à la fermeture
et équipé de véhicules industriels spécialement conçus.2) Outside, by personnel employed from opening to closing
and equipped with specially designed industrial vehicles.
De plus, les chariots ainsi abandonnés se détériorent très vite et necessitent un entretien fort onéreux.In addition, the abandoned trolleys deteriorate very quickly and require very expensive maintenance.
La présente machine, objet de l'invention, à pour but d'interesser la clientèle à ce problème et de faire réaliser d'importantes économies aux magasins qui peuvent éventuellement les répercuter sur leurs prix de tentes
Cette machine, basée sur le système de consigne automatique necessite l'introduction d'une pièce de monnaie, d'un jeton, ou d'une carte dans un appareil récepteur du type électronique, ou mécanique pour obtenir un chariot.The present machine, object of the invention, aims to interest customers in this problem and to make significant savings to stores which can eventually pass them on their tent prices
This machine, based on the automatic deposit system requires the introduction of a coin, a token, or a card into a receiving device of the electronic or mechanical type to obtain a carriage.
A l'inverse, lorsque l'utilisateur remet son chariot dans la machine, cette dernière restitue la pièce de monnaie, le jeton, ou la carte après avoir identifié le passage du chariot par cellule obtique, lecture magnétique ou autre.Conversely, when the user puts his cart back in the machine, the latter returns the coin, the token, or the card after identifying the passage of the cart by optical cell, magnetic reading or other.
La machine, objet de l'invention, se présente sous la forme d'un tunnel plus ou moins long suivant l'importance du parc de chariots et de la place disponible, et est adaptable à toutes les capacités de chariots. Ce tunnel, fait de préférence en matière plastique dure de n'importe quelle couleur, permet à l'usager de se rendre compte si un ou plusieurs chariots se trouvent à l'intérieur.The machine, object of the invention, is in the form of a more or less long tunnel depending on the size of the fleet of trolleys and the space available, and is adaptable to all the capacities of trolleys. This tunnel, preferably made of hard plastic of any color, allows the user to realize if one or more carts are inside.
I1 est necessaire pour assurer le fonctionnement de cette machine, d'utiliser une source d'énergie électrique par secteur, batteries ou groupe électrogène. It is necessary to ensure the operation of this machine, to use a source of electrical energy by sector, batteries or generator.
Sur toute la longueur de la partie basse du tunnel, au niveau du sol, sur la largeur au moins égale à l'empattement des roues du chariot, se trouve un tapis roulant en caoutchouc ou matière souple destiné à l'acheminenent du chariot vers l'orifice de distribution.Over the entire length of the lower part of the tunnel, at ground level, over the width at least equal to the wheelbase of the wheels of the carriage, there is a conveyor belt made of rubber or flexible material intended to convey the carriage to the dispensing orifice.
Ce tapis roulant se met en marche lorsque la personne désirant un chariot a introduit dans l'appareil une pièce de monnaie définie par avance ou un jeton, ou une carte.This treadmill starts when the person wanting a cart has introduced a pre-defined coin or token or card into the device.
Simultanément, la barre en acier ou en matière très solide qui maintient le premier chariot bloqué au niveau de la poignée de ce dernier se dévérouille et coulisse de bas en haut, afin de libérer le chariot et retombe juste derrière celui-ci, afin de se vérouiller en position basse de blocage pour le chariot suivant.At the same time, the bar of steel or very solid material which keeps the first carriage blocked at the level of the handle of the latter is unlocked and slides from bottom to top, in order to release the carriage and falls just behind it, in order to be lock in the lower blocking position for the next carriage.
Le système de blocage peut se faire également par une barre d'acier ou en matière très solide pivotant de l'arrière vers l'avant sur un axe situé à une de ses extrêmité et positionnée à une hauteur comprise entre le panier et le socle du chariot (le blocage venant s'effectuer contre les arceaux de fixation du panier au socle du chariot).The blocking system can also be done by a steel bar or very solid material pivoting from rear to front on an axis located at one of its ends and positioned at a height between the basket and the base of the trolley (the blocking takes place against the hoops fixing the basket to the base of the trolley).
Après avoir fini d'utiliser son chariot, le client le replace dans la machine par l'autre extrêmité qui est équipée, à son entrée, d'un système d'identification du chariot par cellule obtique, lecture magnétique ou autre. I1 est necessaire que le chariot soit équipé de la pièce necessaire au système d'identification adapté sur la machine.After having finished using the cart, the customer replaces it in the machine at the other end, which is equipped, at its entrance, with a cart identification system by optical cell, magnetic reading or other. It is necessary that the trolley is equipped with the part necessary for the identification system adapted on the machine.
En cas de panne, pour quelque raison que ce soit, il est prévu un dévérouillage de la pièce bloquant les chariots afin de pouvoir utiliser ces derniers.In the event of a breakdown, for any reason whatsoever, provision is made for unlocking the part blocking the carriages so that they can be used.
Une trappe de visite fermant à clé est prévue à peu près à la moitié du tunnel, afin de pouvoir intervenir à l'intérieur en cas de besoin.A lockable access hatch is provided about halfway through the tunnel, so that you can intervene inside if necessary.
Dans le but d'éviter tout accident, il est prévu, à l'extremité du tunnel destiné à l'entrée des chariots, une porte à double battants en matière souple.In order to avoid any accident, a double-leaf door made of flexible material is provided at the end of the tunnel intended for the entry of the trolleys.
Telle qu'elle est représentée, la machine comporte un tunnel (1) à la base duquel se trouve un tapis roulant (2) qui achemine les chariots de l'ex- trêmité de restitution (3) vers l'extremité de distribution (4). A l'introduction de la pièce de monnaie, du jeton, ou de la carte dans l'appareil récepteur (5), le tapis roulant se met en fonctionnement en même temps que se dévérouille la pièce de blocage (6) qui coulisse de bas en haut, afin de libérer le chariot et revient en position basse de vérouillage afin de bloquer le chariot suivant. As shown, the machine comprises a tunnel (1) at the base of which is a conveyor belt (2) which routes the carriages from the return end (3) to the distribution end (4 ). When the coin, token or card is inserted into the receiving device (5), the treadmill starts operating at the same time as the locking piece (6) which slides from below is unlocked. at the top in order to release the carriage and returns to the low locking position in order to block the following carriage.
A la restitution du chariot par l'extremité de restitution, le système d'identification du chariot (7) déclenche le processus de restitution de la pièce de monnaie, du jeton ou de la caste à l'appareil de restitution (8), qui peut-être le même ou différent de l'appareil récepteur.When the carriage is returned by the return end, the carriage identification system (7) initiates the process of returning the coin, token or caste to the return device (8), which maybe the same or different from the receiving device.
La machine, objet de l'invention, tout en restant sensiblement identique, peut-être modifiée en supprimant le système de consigne automatique qui serait remplacée par un appareil distribuant à chaque restitution de chariot des tickets donnant droit à un cadeau de la part du magasin en échange d'un ou de plusieurs tickets.The machine, object of the invention, while remaining substantially identical, can be modified by eliminating the automatic deposit system which would be replaced by a device distributing, at each carriage return, tickets giving the right to a gift from the store. in exchange for one or more tickets.
Cette machine, objet de l'invention, peut-être mise en fonctionnement dans les magasins de distribution qui mettent à la disposition de leur clientèle des chariots dit de libre-service et possédant une aire de stockage pour ces chariots, un ou de plusieurs parkings, ou situés à l'intérieur d'un centre commercial.
