And a support bar 11a integrated with the rear end. The support bar 11a is a round bar member having a diameter of 5 mm and a diameter of 6 mm. The support bar 11a has a display device 12 at the tip of which a display card fitted and fixed can be attached and fixed. The existing merchandise display hook member 11 does not have the advance function, but exerts the merchandise display function by itself.
[0011]
The slide support portion 6 is integrated with the pressing main body portion 21 and is slidably attached to a support bar 11a of either 5 mm or 6 mm, and has a function of moving the pressing main body portion 21 in the front-rear direction. The slide support portion 6 has two laterally opened fitting holes 4 and 5 having different diameters and partially overlaps the first fitting hole 4 having a large diameter and the second fitting hole 5 having a small diameter in order from the opening side. A horizontal cylindrical member arranged side by side, and one of two fitting holes 4 and 5 having different diameters is attached to the support bar 11a. The large-diameter first fitting hole 4 fits into the 6 mm support bar 11a, and its inner diameter is slightly larger than 6 mm. The small diameter second fitting hole 5 fits into the 5 mm support bar 11a, and its inner diameter is slightly larger than 5 mm. By making the inner diameter of the first fitting hole 4 slightly larger than 6 mm, or by making the inner diameter of the second fitting hole 5 slightly larger than 5 mm, the slide support portion 6 can slide freely with respect to the support bar 11a. In addition, a fitting state is provided in which the two members are not easily detached by the action of an unexpected external force.
[0012]
As shown in FIG. 9, the opening dimensions Y2 of the first fitting holes are slightly smaller than the inner diameter X2 of the first fitting holes 4 and the two fitting holes 4 and 5 of different diameters are different from each other. The opening dimension Y1 is slightly smaller than the inner diameter X1 of the second fitting hole. Specifically, the inner diameter X2 of the first fitting hole 4 is 6.2 to 6.5 mm, the opening dimension Y2 of the first fitting hole is 5.4 to 5.8 mm, and the inner diameter X1 of the second fitting hole is The opening dimension Y1 of the second fitting hole is 4.4 to 4.8 mm. If the opening dimensions Y1 and Y2 are too large, the fitting of the support bar 11a into the fitting hole is easy, but the fitting state is loose and a reliable fitting state may not be obtained. In addition, the support bar 11a does not fit into the fitting hole or becomes difficult to fit.
[0013]
The pressing body 2 is integrated with the slide support 6 that slides by operation of the operation bar 9, has a function of abutting the product A from the rear surface and pushing the product A forward, and has a substantially hollow groove 3. It is a flat member. In this example, the front surface of the pressing body 21 is beveled to increase the strength of the thin plate. The groove width of the hollow 3 is slightly larger than the diameter of the product display bar 11b so as not to hinder the longitudinal movement of the product pressing body. The length dimension of the hollow 3 is a length into which the product display bar 11b enters when the product advance tool 1 is mounted on the product display hook member 11. If the width and length of the hollow groove 3 are too large, it is necessary to increase the size of the product pressing body, and the overall balance will be poor.
[0014]
The operation bar 9 has a rear portion 92 attached to a rear surface above the product pressing body 2 and a front end portion 91 extending forward. The front end portion 91 is grasped by hand to pull out the product A, and to move the product A forward. After the putting-out work is completed, the product pressing body 2 is put in a standby state rearward by grasping the front end portion 91 by hand and pushing it backward. The attachment of the operation bar 9 to the rear part of the product pressing portion 2 is preferably performed by a fixing method in which the distal end portion 91 of the operation bar 9 is movable in the vertical direction in terms of operability.

[0015]
Next, a method for attaching the product advance tool 1 to the product display hook member 11 having a support bar having a diameter of 6 mm as shown in FIG. 6A will be described with reference to FIGS. First, the product display bar 11b is mounted so that the product display bar 11b enters the hollow 3 of the product pressing body 2 of the product advancing device 1 (FIG. 3). Next, the support bar 11a is fitted to the first fitting portion 4 of the slide support portion 6. In this fitting, the opening of the first fitting portion 4 is applied to the lateral portion of the support bar 11a, and the support bar 11a is pushed into the opening. As a result, the opening of the first fitting portion 4 having spring elasticity is slightly opened and closed after the fitting, so that the two can be fitted together (FIGS. 4, 6 (B), 9 (B)). Even if the pushing force is strong, there is no room for the support bar 11a having a diameter of 6 mm to enter the second fitting portion 5 with the opening dimension Y1 of the second fitting portion. In a state where the product advance tool 1 is attached to the product display hook member 11 having the 6 mm support bar 11a, the product pressing body 2 is slightly inclined left when viewed from the front (FIG. 8B). After being attached to the support bar 11a having a diameter of 6 mm, the product A is sold from the front, and the remaining product A remains on the rear side (FIG. 6C). With this, the slide moving unit 6 moves along the support bar 11a, and the pressing body 21 integrated with the sliding moving unit 6 is moved forward, so that the display in front of the pressing body 21 is moved. The product A is advanced (FIGS. 5 and 6D) .When the advance of the product is completed, if the operation bar 9 extended forward is left as it is, the operation bar 9 becomes an obstacle for taking out the product, or the work is not performed. May interfere with the traffic of visitors and customers, It returned to the person who is placed in a standby state.
[0016]
Next, a method of attaching the product advance tool 1 to the product display hook member 11 having a support bar having a diameter of 5 mm will be described with reference to FIGS. First, the product display bar 11b is mounted so that the product display bar 11b enters the hollow 3 of the product pressing body 2 of the product advancing device 1. Next, the support bar 11a is fitted to the second fitting portion 5 of the slide support portion 6. In this fitting, the opening of the second fitting portion 5 is applied to the lateral portion of the support bar 11a passing through the opening of the first fitting portion 4, and the support bar 11a is pushed into this opening. As a result, the opening of the second fitting portion 5 having spring elasticity is slightly opened, and after the fitting, the opening is closed, so that the two can be fitted together (FIGS. 8A and 9A). With the product advance tool 1 attached to the product display hook member 11 having the 5 mm support bar 11a, the product pressing body 2 is slightly inclined rightward in front view (FIG. 8A). The operation after attaching the product advance tool 1 to the support bar 11a having a diameter of 5 mm is the same as the above-described embodiment in which the product advance tool 1 is attached to the support bar 11a having a diameter of 6 mm.
[0017]
According to the product advancing tool 1 of the present example, it can be retrofitted to any product display hook member 11 having the support bar 11a having a diameter of 5 mm and a diameter of 6 mm. Therefore, the existing product display hook member 11 is not completely replaced, and the installation cost can be reduced. Further, even if the product display hook member 11 is once provided with the product advance function, it can be easily returned to the original product display hook member 11 without the product advance function. Also, at this time, the removed product advancing tool 1 can be diverted to any of the product display hook members 11 having the other support bars 11a having a diameter of 5 mm and a diameter of 6 mm, so that the troublesome inventory management can be solved.
