Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un distributeur automatique de cigarettes à l'unité. The present invention relates to an automatic cigarette vending machine.
La distribution de cigarettes est traditionnellement effectuée par le moyen de paquets de vingt unités ce qui peut avoir pour conséquence d'inciter à une consommation abusive tout en limitant le test de cigarettes nouvelles ou inconnues. The distribution of cigarettes is traditionally carried out by means of packs of twenty units which can have the consequence of encouraging excessive consumption while limiting the testing of new or unknown cigarettes.
Les cigarettes, rarement distribuées à l'unité, sont disposées sur des présentoirs qui ne garantissent pas à l'acheteur une cigarette non-tripotée. Ces supports ne répondent plus aux exigences actuelles en ce qui concerne l'hygiène, n'coffrent jamais un assortiment classé de cigarettes et de plus, obligent l'intervention d'un préposé pour l'encaissement d'une seule cigarette. A cette situation, la vente à l'unité de cigarettes est peu développée. Cigarettes, rarely distributed individually, are placed on displays that do not guarantee the purchaser a non-tampered cigarette. These supports no longer meet current requirements with regard to hygiene, never offer a classified assortment of cigarettes and moreover, require the intervention of an attendant to collect a single cigarette. In this situation, the sale by unit of cigarettes is poorly developed.
Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remédier à ces inconvénients. I1 comporte, en effet, selon une première caractéristique, un boitier permettant de distribuer des cigarettes à l'unité. Ce boitier est équipé d'un levier de commande qui actionné par l'utilisateur, dégage une fente et distribue une seule cigarette à la fois. The device according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks. I1 has, in fact, according to a first characteristic, a box for dispensing cigarettes individually. This box is equipped with a control lever which actuated by the user, clears a slot and dispenses only one cigarette at a time.
La vente à l'unité de cigarettes peut exercer un rôle important dans la lutte contre le tabagisme tout en facilitant le commerce des marques nouvelles ou peu connues. The sale of cigarettes individually can play an important role in the fight against smoking while facilitating the trade of new or little known brands.

rouillable.- the box can be fitted with a worm cover
rusty.
- plusieurs boitiers peuvent être réunis pour former
un ensemble.- several boxes can be combined to form
a set.
- Le dispositif pourra être équipé d'un système émet
teur de messages sonores et/ou lumineux.- The device can be equipped with a transmitting system

Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention
- La figure 1 représente, en axonométrie, le disposi
tif selon l'invention.The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention
- Figure 1 shows, in axonometry, the disposi
tif according to the invention.
- La figure 2 représente, en coupe suivant AA, le dispositif selon l'invention. - Figure 2 shows, in section along AA, the device according to the invention.
- La figure 3 représente, en vue de face, le dispositif selon l'invention. - Figure 3 shows, in front view, the device according to the invention.
En référence à ces dessins, le dispositif comporte un boitier (1) dont l'une des faces est munie d'une fente horizontale (6) et fermé par un couvercle verrouillable (2). Le mécanisme se compose d'un levier de commande (4) relié par un axe (5) fig. 2 à un plateau (3) fixé à l'intérieur du boitier (1). Une lame ressort (8) fixée sous le plateau (3) maintient le levier de commande (4) en position haute. Les cigarettes (7) fig. 2 sont disposées dans le boitier (1). With reference to these drawings, the device comprises a box (1) one of the faces of which is provided with a horizontal slot (6) and closed by a lockable cover (2). The mechanism consists of a control lever (4) connected by an axis (5) fig. 2 to a plate (3) fixed inside the housing (1). A leaf spring (8) fixed under the plate (3) keeps the control lever (4) in the high position. The cigarettes (7) fig. 2 are arranged in the housing (1).
La pression exercée sur le levier de commande (4) par l'utilisateur dégage la fente (6) et libère une cigarette (7) fig. 1. Sous l'action de la lame ressort (8) le levier de commande (4) revient en position haute pour refermer la fente (6). The pressure exerted on the control lever (4) by the user clears the slot (6) and releases a cigarette (7) fig. 1. Under the action of the spring blade (8) the control lever (4) returns to the high position to close the slot (6).
La partie extérieure au boitier (1) du levier de commande (4) recevant la cigarette(7) fig 1 distribuée est plus courte que celle-ci afin de laisser ses deux extrémités libres à la prise. The part outside the housing (1) of the control lever (4) receiving the cigarette (7) fig 1 distributed is shorter than this in order to leave its two free ends to the socket.
La présence d'un dispositif de réarmement (9) fig. 3 et d'un couvercle verrouillable (2) permettent à ce dispositif de fonctionner en libre service. Ces mêmes fonctions donnent l'assurance à l'utilisateur d'obtenir une cigarette (7) nonmanipulée. The presence of a reset device (9) fig. 3 and a lockable cover (2) allow this device to operate in self-service. These same functions provide the user with the assurance of obtaining an unmanipulated cigarette (7).
Selon une variante non illustrée, on pourra réaliser des meubles constitués par plusieurs boitiers (1) afin de permettre un choix de plusieurs marques et dans ce cas, pratiquer une porte de visite donnant accès à tout l'ensemble. According to a variant not illustrated, it will be possible to produce pieces of furniture constituted by several boxes (1) in order to allow a choice of several brands and in this case, practice a visit door giving access to the whole assembly.
On pourra aussi, concevoir d'un système connu un dispositif électronique à la carte pour débloquer le levier de commande (4). It is also possible, to design a known system for an electronic à la carte device for unlocking the control lever (4).
Enfin, on pourra équiper le présent dispositif d'un système émetteur de messages sonores et/ou lumineux à caractères sanitaires et publicitaires. Finally, it is possible to equip the present device with a system emitting sound and / or light messages of sanitary and advertising nature.
Toutefois, la forme, la disposition et les dimensions pourront varier dans la limite des équivalents, ainsi que les matières utilisées pour la fabrication, sans changer pour cela la conception générale de l'invention. However, the shape, arrangement and dimensions may vary within the limit of equivalents, as well as the materials used for manufacturing, without changing the general design of the invention for this.
Le dispositif selon l'invention est particulièrement destiné à la distribution en libre-service de cigarettes à l'unité. The device according to the invention is particularly intended for the self-service distribution of single cigarettes.
