Description

  The present invention relates to a cigarette display system for displaying cigarette packs to be sold, and more particularly to a cigarette display system used in a convenience store or the like.

  Currently, stores such as so-called convenience stores display cigarette packs for sale. The cigarette pack referred to here means not a cigarette that is actually smoked, but a rectangular parallelepiped package containing a plurality of cigarettes.

  A cigarette display system for displaying cigarette packs includes, for example, a plurality of magazine units and one system frame. The magazine unit is formed of, for example, a colorless and transparent resin in a box shape having an upper surface opening that is elongated in the front-rear direction.

  The magazine unit is accommodated from above in a state where the standing tobacco packs are arranged in the front-rear direction. In the magazine unit, a slider member is slidably mounted on the bottom surface in the front-rear direction.

  More specifically, an opening hole elongated in the front-rear direction is formed at the bottom of the magazine unit. Ribs protruding upward are formed on the left and right sides of the opening hole. A slider member is slidably attached to the pair of ribs and the opening hole in the front-rear direction.

  Further, a wound plate spring serving as an urging mechanism is attached to the rear portion of the slider member. One end of the leaf spring is pulled out from the slider member and attached to the front of the bottom of the magazine unit.

  For this reason, the slider member slidable in the front-rear direction is resiliently biased forward by the leaf spring. Accordingly, the plurality of cigarette packs accommodated in the magazine unit are pressed forward by the slider member.

  The system frame holds a plurality of magazine units arranged vertically and horizontally. The system frame includes a plurality of guide rails and one main body frame. A pair of guide rails holds both sides of the magazine unit. The main body frame is formed in a three-dimensional shape with a metal rod, for example. A plurality of guide rails are fixed to the main body frame in pairs.

  In the cigarette display system as described above, for example, 20 magazine units are mounted on the system frame in an array of 4 rows and 5 columns. For example, ten cigarette packs are accommodated in each magazine unit.

  In such a cigarette display system, the cigarette pack is stored in a standing state in a colorless and transparent magazine unit, and therefore, the cigarette pack is displayed with its surface positioned on the front surface. Therefore, for example, ten kinds of cigarette packs can be accommodated while being displayed.

  When selling a cigarette pack, it is only necessary to pull it upward from the front position of the magazine unit. In that case, the cigarette pack accommodated in the magazine unit is pressed forward by the slider member. For this reason, even if a cigarette pack is extracted from the foremost position of the magazine unit, the state where the cigarette pack is arranged at that position is maintained.

  When refilling the cigarette pack with the cigarette display system, the magazine unit is removed from the system frame. A cigarette pack is accommodated in the magazine unit, and the magazine unit in which the cigarette pack is accommodated is attached to the system frame. For this reason, the complicated operation | work which replenishes a cigarette pack to the magazine unit fixed to the system frame is unnecessary.

In the cigarette display system as described above, for example, by removing the magazine unit from the system frame, the magazine unit can be washed or cleaned.

  The conventional cigarette display system has a fixed overall shape. For this reason, for example, if the space to be installed is small, it may not be installed. On the other hand, if the installation space is large, a dead space is generated.

  That is, the conventional cigarette display system cannot flexibly cope with changes in the installation space. For this reason, it is not possible to construct an effective sales floor while making the most effective use of the store space.

  Therefore, conventionally, stores could not display various cigarette packs. For this reason, the store did not actively devise the display form of cigarette packs to build a sales floor with a good appeal effect. Similarly, companies that supply cigarette packs to stores have not been able to propose various display forms.

  Furthermore, conventional cigarette display systems have been increased in size to display a sufficient number of cigarette packs. For this reason, the conventional cigarette display system is generally large and heavy. Therefore, it is not easy to carry in and install in the store.

  For example, many convenience stores are open 24 hours. For this reason, it is necessary to carry in and install the cigarette display system in a state where the store is open to the customer. In other words, it is necessary to quickly carry in and install the cigarette display system in a space-saving manner. However, this is difficult with conventional cigarette display systems.

  Conventionally, in order to appeal the customer to the cigarette pack, for example, a promotional part is attached to the cigarette display system. However, in other words, in order to improve the appeal effect of cigarette packs, conventionally, advertising parts are required.

  In the conventional cigarette display system, as described above, it is difficult to carry in and install easily, and the installation place and the display form of the cigarette pack are inflexible and produce a sales floor with a high appeal effect. I ca n’t do that.

  Thus, in order to cope with this, it can be assumed that a plurality of types of cigarette display systems having different structures are prepared. However, this would produce a small variety of tobacco display systems, which would reduce overall productivity. For this reason, conventionally, a small variety of tobacco display systems have been mass-produced.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems, and provides a cigarette display system having a structure capable of displaying cigarette packs in various ways without reducing productivity.

  The cigarette display system of the present invention is a cigarette display system for displaying cigarette packs to be sold, and includes a frame body having a box structure with a front opening that is continuous vertically and horizontally, and a flat plate that is flat in the front-rear direction. A wall body that is separate from the frame body that is formed in a front surface and has a predetermined shape of irregularities on the front surface, and a plurality of boxes that are formed in a box shape with an elongated upper surface opening in the front-rear direction A plurality of magazine units configured to hold a cigarette pack, a plurality of tray units formed in a box shape with an opening on the top and configured to detachably hold a plurality of magazine units arranged in the left-right direction, and a frame body The tray unit is detachably held individually at a plurality of positions spaced apart in the vertical direction inside each of the plurality of box structures. Having a laser support, a plurality of trays attachments for holding the tray unit detachably with engaging detachably to the unevenness of the wall body.

  Therefore, in the cigarette display system of the present invention, a plurality of cigarette packs are held by the magazine unit, and a plurality of magazine units are held by the tray unit. A plurality of tray units are attached to the frame main body and the wall main body, but the frame main body and the wall main body are formed separately from each other with a different structure.

  In the present invention, the front / rear / left / right directions are also defined in addition to the upper / lower direction, but this is defined for the sake of convenience in order to simply explain the relative relationship of the components of the present invention, and the present invention is implemented. There is no limitation on the direction of manufacture or use.

  The various components of the present invention do not necessarily have to be independent of each other. A plurality of components are formed as a single member, and a single component is formed of a plurality of members. It may be that a certain component is a part of another component, a part of a certain component overlaps with a part of another component, or the like.

  In the cigarette display system of the present invention, a plurality of cigarette packs T are held by a magazine unit, and a plurality of magazine units are held by a tray unit. It can be easily brought into the store quickly and installed. Furthermore, since the installation location and the display form of the cigarette pack are flexible, it is possible to produce a sales floor with a high appealing effect. In particular, a plurality of tray units are attached to the frame main body and the wall main body, but the frame main body and the wall main body are formed separately from each other with a different structure. For this reason, since the tray unit and the magazine unit are shared by the two types of apparatus main bodies, various types of cigarette packs can be displayed without reducing the productivity.

  Further, in the frame unit 300, products used for joining automobile parts or the like can be used as the surface fastener 311 described above. In that case, the plurality of frame units 300 can be firmly connected by the hook-and-loop fastener 311.

  Further, when the plurality of frame units 300 are connected in the vertical direction as described above, the pair of convex members 314 of the lower frame unit 300 engage with the pair of frame through holes 313 of the upper frame unit 300. For this reason, the front-rear and left-right relative positions of the plurality of frame units 300 connected in the up-down direction can be simply and reliably made appropriate.

  In the wall unit 500, the metal pipes 531 and 532 used for the vertical connection also serve as a structural reinforcement. For this reason, the wall unit 500 has a minimum number of parts, is lightweight, and has good productivity.

  Further, when the tray unit 200 is held by the frame unit 300 as described above, the tray convex portion 201 is engaged with the guide concave portion 321. For this reason, the tray unit 200 is easily and reliably held at an appropriate position by the frame unit 300.

  Moreover, although there are a plurality of types of tray units 200 having different front and rear lengths, the distance from the front surface to the tray convex portion 201 is common. The plurality of types of frame units 300 also have the same distance from the front surface to the guide recess 321. For this reason, even if a plurality of types of tray units 200 are held in a plurality of types of frame units 300, the positions of the front surfaces of the tray units 200 are the same.

  Moreover, when a plurality of frame units 300 are arranged in the left-right direction as described above, the front-rear positions of the guide recesses 321 of the support frame 320 are the same even if the front-rear is reversed alternately.

  Therefore, even if the tray unit 200 is held by the plurality of frame units 300 arranged in the left-right direction as described above, the position of the front surface of the tray unit 200 is the same.

  Therefore, in the cigarette display system 1000 of the present embodiment, when the entire frame unit 300 is constructed, the position of the front surface of the cigarette pack T held and displayed by the plurality of units 100 to 300 can be made the same. The cigarette pack T can be displayed beautifully.

  In particular, the magazine unit 100 presses a plurality of accommodated cigarette packs T forward by the slider member 110. For this reason, the cigarette packs T accommodated in the plurality of magazine units 100 can be automatically displayed at a common position.

  Further, the magazine unit 100 and the tray unit 200 are formed of a colorless and transparent resin. For this reason, the cigarette carton K accommodated in the tray unit 200 and the cigarette pack T accommodated in the tray unit 200 by the magazine unit 100 can be displayed in a state that can be satisfactorily viewed.

  In addition, the magazine unit 100 causes the plurality of accommodated cigarette packs T to protrude upward by only one of the frontmost portions by the magazine convex portion 107. For this reason, one piece can be easily taken out from the plurality of cigarette packs T accommodated.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the magazine unit 100 can be stopped against the tension of the leaf spring 111 by engaging the slider member 110 slid rearward with the stopper step portion 105. For this reason, the magazine unit 100 can be easily replenished with a plurality of cigarette packs T.

  Further, when the plurality of frame units 300 are arranged in the left-right direction with the front and rear being alternately reversed as described above, the gap between the plurality of frame units 300 arranged in the left-right direction can be minimized. . For this reason, the density at which the cigarette pack T is displayed can be improved.

  In addition, the frame unit 300 is supported by a plurality of support frames 320 that respectively support the tray unit 200 arranged in a vertical direction by a pair of body frames 310, and the pair of body frames 310 are supported by the plurality of support frames 320. It is arranged and supported in the front-rear direction.

  That is, the frame unit 300 is formed of the minimum necessary frames 310 and 320 that serve as both functional parts and structures. For this reason, the frame unit 300 has good productivity and is lightweight.

  In particular, since the support frame 320 is bent into a U-shaped cross-sectional shape, it is highly rigid. Since the main body frame 310 is formed in a closed shape like a frame, it is highly rigid. These frames 310 and 320 are three-dimensionally joined. For this reason, the frame unit 300 has extremely high rigidity as compared with a conventional fixture or the like formed of a metal bar or the like.

  Further, since the cigarette display system 1000 according to the present embodiment can be assembled by freely combining the frame unit 300, the wall unit 500, the tray unit 200, and the magazine unit 100 as described above, a part thereof is disassembled. It is easy to clean.

  In particular, the magazine unit 100 of the present embodiment is a flat surface whose bottom surface does not have a convex portion at least in a range in which the slider member 110 slides. For this reason, the bottom surface of the magazine unit 100 on which the cigarette pack T is directly placed and easily contaminated can be easily washed and cleaned.

  In the cigarette display system 1000 of the present embodiment, the magazine units 100a and 100b are held by the tray units 200a to 200d corresponding to the front and rear lengths. However, as shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, the cigarette carton K, the simple fixture F of the campaign pack P, etc. can be directly held without holding the magazine unit 100 in the tray unit 200. That is, the cigarette carton K or the simple furniture F having a shape that cannot be accommodated in the magazine unit 100 can be displayed.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 1 (a), the above-mentioned simple fixture F can be placed on the upper surface of the frame unit 300, or can be placed inside the frame unit 300 in which the tray unit 200 is not set. (Not shown).

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 1B, a basket unit 710 can also be mounted on the front surface of the wall unit 500 at a desired position. For this reason, this basket unit 710 can also display the cigarette carton K, the simple furniture F, etc. satisfactorily.

  Moreover, the shaft unit 720 can also be mounted on the front surface of the wall unit 500 at a desired position. For this reason, with this shaft unit 720, it is possible to display the campaign pack P and the like that were difficult to display with the conventional cigarette display system.

  Currently, the cigarette pack T and the cigarette carton K are packed in a cardboard box and provided to the store, and are replenished to the magazine unit 100 and the tray unit 200 of the cigarette display system 1000 at the store.

  However, the magazine unit 100 filled with the cigarette pack T and the tray unit 200 filled with the cigarette carton K can be provided to the store, and the empty magazine unit 100 and the tray unit 200 can be collected from the store. In this case, in the store, the operation of replenishing the cigarette pack T and the cigarette carton K to the magazine unit 100 and the tray unit 200 becomes unnecessary, so that the sales efficiency can be improved.

  The present invention is not limited to the present embodiment, and various modifications are allowed without departing from the scope of the present invention. For example, in the above embodiment, the overall shape of the cigarette display system 1000 is formed by the frame unit 300 or the wall unit 500.

  However, as shown in FIGS. 23 and 24, the cigarette display system 1000 may further include a stocker unit 400 and a table unit 410. The stocker unit 400 is formed in a box shape in which at least the upper surface is flat and the front surface can be freely opened and closed.

  The table unit 410 is formed in a box shape having a flat upper surface and flat in the vertical direction. In the table unit 410, a table member 412 is accommodated in a unit box 411 so as to be slidable in the front-rear direction. For this reason, the table member 412 can be projected forward and used for work.

  As shown in FIG. 23, since the frame unit 300 has two types of left and right widths as described above, the stocker unit 400 and the table unit 410 are formed in two types of left and right widths corresponding to the frame unit 300. ing.

  For this reason, the stocker unit 400 and the table unit 410 can be combined with the frame unit 300 to be used. Therefore, the entire cigarette display system 1000 can have a uniform appearance, and the occurrence of dead space can be effectively prevented.

  On the other hand, as described above, the wall unit 500 corresponds to the tray unit 200 having the largest left-right width and front-rear length of the base 520. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 24, by combining with the wide stocker unit 400 and the table unit 410, the entire cigarette display system 1000 can also have a uniform appearance.

  Furthermore, since the tray unit 200 has two types of front and rear lengths as described above, the stocker unit 400 and the table unit 410 are formed to have front and rear lengths corresponding to the tray units 200a and 200b having the largest front and rear lengths. Therefore, when any tray unit 200 is used, the tray unit 200 does not protrude outward from the stocker unit 400.

  By using the stocker unit 400 as described above, the cigarette display system 1000 can be installed in an appropriate state even where there is no counter or the like. Furthermore, by using the table unit 410 as described above, workability such as replenishment of the cigarette pack T can be improved, and it does not get in the way when not in use.

  The stocker unit 400 and the table unit 410 as described above are connected in the vertical direction by unevenness and surface fasteners formed on the upper surface and the lower surface, for example, like the frame unit 300 and the wall unit 500. It can be a structure (not shown).

  In this case, for example, the positions and structures of the unevenness and the surface fasteners are made common with the frame unit 300, so that the frame unit 300 can be installed in the stocker unit 400 and the table unit 410 appropriately and simply and firmly. In this case, a hook-and-loop fastener may be attached to the lower surface of the base 520 of the wall unit 500 (not shown).

  Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 25, the cigarette display system 1000 including the frame unit 300 may further include an effect part 420. The effect part 420 is made of, for example, a resin panel having an L-shaped cross section. The front part 421 is formed to be an advertisement or decoration.

  In addition, a magnet 423 that is attracted to the main body frame 310 of the frame unit 300 is attached to a portion 422 orthogonal to the above-described portion. For this reason, it is possible to easily attach the effect part 420 to the upper surface or the side surface of the frame unit 300. For example, when the cigarette pack T to be sold is changed, the effect part 420 can be easily replaced. The production part 420 as described above can also be formed to have a full length corresponding to the vertical height and the horizontal width of the plurality of types of frame units 300, for example.

  Note that a surface fastener may be attached to the effect part 420 as described above, and the surface fastener may be joined to the surface fastener 311 on the upper surface of the frame unit 300. In this case, the production part 420 can be more firmly attached to the upper surface of the frame unit 300. Further, the frame units 300 arranged in the left-right direction can be connected by the effect parts 420.

  In the above embodiment, the slider unit 110 that presses the cigarette pack T forward by the spring force of the leaf spring 111 is attached to the magazine unit 100, and the cigarette carton K can be directly stored in the tray unit 200.

  However, the slider member 110 that presses the cigarette carton K forward by the elastic force of the leaf spring 111 can be mounted on the tray unit 200. In this case, as shown in FIGS. 26 and 27, a slider unit 430 that is detachable from the tray unit 200 is prepared.

  As shown in FIG. 26, the slider unit 430 is provided with resin parts 432 and 433 before and after a guide rail 431. The slider member 110 is slidably supported on the guide rail 431, and one end of the leaf spring 111 wound around the rear portion of the slider member 110 is connected to the front resin component 432. An adsorption member (not shown) that is adsorbed to the tray unit 200 due to physical properties is attached to the lower surface of the resin parts 432 and 433.

  Therefore, as shown in FIG. 27, by attaching a pair of slider units 430 to the bottom surface of the tray unit 200, a plurality of cigarette cartons K accommodated therein are pressed forward to always come to the foremost part of the tray unit 200. Can be positioned.

  In the above embodiment, the case where the magazine unit 100 holds the cigarette pack T upright in the tray unit 200 is illustrated. However, as shown in FIG. 28, a resin panel 440 bent in a waveform may be set on the bottom surface of the tray unit 200, and the cigarette pack T may be accommodated in an inclined state together with the magazine unit 100.

  In this case, since only four rows can be accommodated in the tray unit 200 that can accommodate the cigarette packs T in five rows, the efficiency of accommodation decreases. However, the display of the cigarette pack T can be changed.

  Furthermore, in the said form, it illustrated that the magazine unit 100 and the tray unit 200 were formed with the colorless and transparent resin. However, the magazine unit 100 or the like may be formed of fluorescent resin.

  In this case, for example, a normal cigarette pack T can be accommodated and displayed in a colorless and transparent magazine unit 100, and a newly released cigarette pack T can be accommodated and displayed in a fluorescent color magazine unit 100. In this case, the specific cigarette pack T can be favorably appealed.

  Further, in the above embodiment, the cigarette pack T, the campaign pack P, and the like are displayed on the frame unit 300 using the tray unit 200, the magazine unit 100, and the like. However, as shown in FIG. 29, the campaign pack P or the like may be displayed by a mesh unit 450 that is detachably attached to the frame unit 300.

  The mesh unit 450 includes a frame portion 451 having a rectangular front shape, a mesh portion 452 disposed in an internal space of the frame portion 451, and a base portion 453 formed rearward from the lower portion of the frame portion 451.

  The base 453 is formed to have a left-right width and a front-rear length corresponding to the upper surface of the frame unit 300. A surface fastener (not shown) is mounted on the lower surface of the base 453 of the mesh unit 450. The surface fastener is detachably attached to the surface fastener 311 on the upper surface of the frame unit 300.

  When such a mesh unit 450 is mounted on the upper surface of the frame unit 300, the campaign pack P can be suspended by the S tube S on the mesh portion 452.

  Currently, when a cigarette pack T or the like displayed in the cigarette display system 1000 is sold, the sales information is collected by an electronic cash register (not shown). Further, when the cigarette pack T or the like is replenished to the cigarette display system 1000, replenishment information and inventory information are also collected by a handy terminal (not shown).

  However, the function of collecting such sales information, replenishment information, and inventory information can be installed in the cigarette display system 1000. For example, at present, it is considered to mount an RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) chip (not shown) on various products such as the cigarette pack T.

  Therefore, by installing an RFID reader (not shown) in the cigarette display system 1000, the cigarette display system 1000 can collect sales information, supplement information, and inventory information of the cigarette pack T.

  The RFID reader as described above may be mounted on, for example, the magazine unit 100, the tray unit 200, the frame unit 300, the wall unit 500, etc., and the magazine unit 100, the tray unit 200, the frame unit 300, the wall unit. 500 may be a unit that is detachable.

  In addition, when providing the cigarette display system 1000 to a store, naturally the combination of the units 100-500 required by a store differs. In that case, the units 100 to 500 required in the store will be examined, but a display simulator 800 for supporting the examination can also be provided to the store.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 30, a display simulator 800a for a frame structure includes a flat unit model 810 that imitates the front shape of the frame unit 300 at a predetermined scale, and a store counter (not shown) at the same scale. The counter model 820 simulating the front shape of the stocker unit 820, the stocker model 830 simulating the front shape of the stocker unit 400 at the same scale, the table model 840 simulating the front shape of the table unit 410 at the same scale, and the same scale A flat human model 850 simulating the shape of a human front surface, and a layout mount 860 on which a plurality of models 810 to 840 are laid out and detachably mounted, and the human model is detachably mounted.

  The layout mount 860 is formed of a magnetic sheet, and the models 810 to 850 are formed of a magnetic sheet. In a store provided with such a display simulator 800a, as shown in FIG. 31, various models 100-500 of the cigarette display system 1000 are combined by laying out various models 810-830 on a layout mount 860. Can be considered.

  Moreover, in this display simulator 800a, since there is also a human model 850 at a uniform scale, the relative relationship between the cigarette display system 1000 and a human can also be confirmed. In particular, the human model 850 is formed so that the arm portion is rotatable. For this reason, it can also be confirmed whether the cigarette display system 1000 can be constructed in a range where a human can work.

  Furthermore, the manufacturer of the cigarette display system 1000 collects the display simulator 800 in which various models 810 to 830 are laid out on the layout mount 860 at the store, and the manufacturer provides various units 100 to 500 and the like to the store according to the layout. You can also

  Of course, as shown in FIG. 32, a display simulator 800b having a flat unit model 870 simulating the front shape of the wall unit 500 at a predetermined scale can be formed in the same manner.

  Furthermore, a display simulator (not shown) in which both the unit models 810 and 870 of the frame unit 300 and the wall unit 500 as described above are prepared can be provided to the store.
