JP2002369736A - Spring type hook for display - Google Patents

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a hook which facilitates the taking out of goods and simplifies inventory control within stores, as introduced replacing the hooks for display presently used, on which hang a plurality of goods, in view of such a main problem that the positions of goods will not shift even after how many thereof may be taken off. As a result, a loss in the chance to sell is possible with display racks as more hooks are arranged thereon because the goods left are concealed behind the others as the number thereof decreases and furthermore, the hooks must be checked one at a time to determine whether the residual goods are concealed deeper backward or gone. SOLUTION: A fulcrum 5 and a coil spring 1 are mounted on a mobile arm 2 to make the residual goods move forward to the frontmost positions sliding by own deadload. The absence of the goods on the frontmost positions indicates that no goods are on the hooks, thus realizing visual management in the inventory control within the stores.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to furniture for displaying goods at retail stores such as convenience stores.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Currently used display hooks hang a product on a fixed arm, and a purchaser removes the product from the arm as necessary. At that time, the remaining products remain in their original positions.

[0003] The next purchaser must remove the product so as to pull out the product at the back of the arm.

[0004] Furthermore, the remaining commodities are located behind the arm, and are shadowed by other commodities or are difficult to remove.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to make it easier for a purchaser to take out a product by always moving the product to the tip of the arm.

[0006] The presence or absence of a product on the arm can be clarified, and the operation such as product selection is supported.

[0007]

The movable arm 2 moves up and down about the fulcrum 5 by the compression and extension of the coil spring 1. As a result, when the product is taken out, the movable arm 2 is tilted, and the product following the target product slides to the front of the movable arm 2 and moves.

[0008]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 attached to the present specification is a side view of a display spring type hook utilizing a coil spring 1.

When a product is taken out, the movable arm 2 is inclined downward about the fulcrum 5 as an axis. At this time, the remaining products naturally slide forward due to their own weight, but do not drop due to the comb stopper 3.

When the removal of the product is completed, the movable arm 2 returns to the position of the comb-shaped stopper 3 upward around the fulcrum 5 and stops.

[0011]
