Description

  The present invention relates to an antitheft device that suppresses a plurality of suspended display articles from being simultaneously extracted in an article display apparatus that suspends display articles on a suspension member.

  In order to display small display articles in a supermarket or the like, an article display device is used in which a bar-like suspension member (elongated member) is assembled to a product shelf so as to protrude from the product shelf. And many display articles are suspended and displayed on the suspension member of this article display device.

By the way, most of the display articles are provided with a through hole for suspension in a packaging member that wraps the display article in advance, for example, a mount member that holds and wraps the display article, and the through hole is provided at the tip of the suspension member. The method of inserting from is used.
In such an article display device for displaying display articles, when a customer purchases display articles, the display article at the foremost position of the suspension member only has to be extracted from the front end portion of the suspension member that forms the entry / exit portion of the display article. , You get the product you want to buy.

  By the way, in this goods display device, goods are stolen, that is, goods are stolen by using pretending to be purchased by a customer, specifically, a fraud in which many display goods are taken away from a suspension member at once. Sometimes.

  For this reason, in supermarkets and the like, a surveillance camera is installed in a store to monitor the action of taking out display items. However, since the take-out action of the display article is quick, the monitoring from the surveillance camera can be performed by the customer simultaneously taking out a plurality (for example, two) of the display article from the suspension member and leaving one at hand for purchase. It is difficult to judge whether to return the item and to remove a large number of displayed articles from the suspension member at the same time due to theft. For this reason, there is a problem that it is impossible to prevent theft such as removing a large number of display items at a time.

Therefore, a theft deterrent device as disclosed in Patent Document 1 has been proposed. The apparatus divides the suspension member into a main main member and a hanger for suspending the display article, removably connects the hanger and the main member via the attachment / detachment portion, and locks the attachment / detachment portion. The display article cannot be removed from the hanger unless the device is locked and the lock device is unlocked.
However, the theft deterrent device has a structure in which the suspension member and the main member are separated, and is a structure that establishes the display of the display article. Therefore, the display article is simply inserted into the rod-like suspension member as described above. It is not suitable for structures that are displayed. Moreover, this theft deterrent device has a problem that the structure is considerably complicated due to the structure in which the lock device is combined.

For this reason, a theft deterrent device that provides a restriction device that restricts the entry / exit operation of the display article is adopted at the tip portion that forms the entry / exit portion of the suspension member so that a simple structure can be used. Attention has been focused on a theft deterrent device using a technique that allows the surveillance camera to clearly recognize the situation in which the display article is extracted from the suspension member and the situation in which the display article is returned to the suspension member.
The restriction device uses a main body having an outer shape that can be inserted through the through-hole of the display article, and is displaced on both sides of the main body to an overhanging posture that protrudes on both sides of the main body and a retracted posture that fits within the main body. A pair of possible insertion obstruction members are provided, and each insertion obstruction member is provided with a positioning structure portion for individually positioning to the extended posture, so that the insertion obstruction members are arranged in the extended posture in the normal state. . In other words, when removing the display article from the suspension member, when returning the display article to the suspension member, it is necessary to make the insertion obstruction member retracted and to insert the display article into the main body for each display article. By enforcing (restricting work), it is recognized through the surveillance camera that the display items have been put in and out, that is, a large number of display items have been simultaneously removed from the suspension member and how many display items have been returned. The

By the way, also in the antitheft device having the insertion obstruction member, as with other devices, cost reduction is required.
Although it is possible to reduce the cost even with a structure in which the positioning structure part is individually provided on the insertion obstruction member, the provision of the urging structure part itself causes an increase in the number of parts, and further cost reduction is intended. Is getting harder.
Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide an antitheft device for an article display device that has a simple structure and can reduce the number of parts.

  In order to achieve the above object, the present invention comprises a display article having a through hole for suspension and an elongated member, and the display article is suspended and displayed by inserting the through hole of the display article from the tip. The anti-theft device is provided with an article display device having a suspension member, and is provided with a restriction device that restricts an entry / exit operation of the display article at a distal end portion of the suspension member that forms an entry / exit portion of the display article. The restricting device has a main body configured to have an outer shape through which the through hole of the display article can be inserted, and a protruding posture that is provided in the main body and protrudes from the main body to both sides to obstruct the insertion of the display article. And a pair of insertion obstruction members that can be displaced between the retracted postures that can be accommodated in the main body that allows insertion of the display article, and a positioning structure portion that positions the insertion obstruction members in the extended posture when in a normal state, The positioning structure is a pair of insertion obstacles Provided integrally connected between was assumed to be configured with a biasing member for determining the position in the overhang and orientation to urge the article insertion obstruction member.

  Preferably, the pair of insertion obstruction members are formed from a synthetic resin member, and the urging member is formed from an arm portion having a spring property that is integrally formed with the article insertion obstruction member.

According to the present invention, due to the structure in which the pair of insertion obstruction members are integrally connected by the biasing member, the insertion window outer member and the biasing member for restricting the entry / exit operation to the display article are combined into one part. Aggregated. Thereby, the number of parts of the restriction device can be reduced.
Therefore, the cost of the antitheft device can be reduced. In particular, the insertion obstruction member and the urging member can be easily made into one component by being integrally formed of a synthetic resin member.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described based on a first embodiment shown in FIGS.
1, reference numeral 1 denotes an article display device installed in a store monitored by a monitoring camera (not shown) such as a supermarket, for example. Reference numeral 3 denotes an article displayed by the article display device 1, for example, a mount member 3. A flat product 7 in which a T-shaped razor 6 is packaged with a transparent cover member 5 provided on the surface of the mount member 3 is shown. Here, the T-shaped razor 6 is schematically drawn by a two-dot chain line, for example, in a flat plate shape.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the article display device 1 is composed of, for example, a round bar-like suspension member 11 (an elongated member extending in the axial direction) so as to protrude from a product shelf (not shown) into an I shape in a lateral direction on a product shelf (not shown). ). Here, the tip end side forming the commodity entrance / exit portion 11a of the suspension member 11 is inclined obliquely upward.

In the product 7, for example, the top of the mount member 3 is provided with a through hole for holding the product, for example, a rectangular opening 13 extending along the width direction of the mount member 3. Incidentally, the center in the width direction of the upper edge portion of the opening 13 is cut out in a semicircular shape, for example.
With this structure, as shown in FIG. 1, the product 7 is inserted into the suspension member 11 of the article display device 1 by inserting the cutout portion 13 a cut into a semicircular shape from the tip of the suspension member 11 as a guide. Many items are displayed.

  In addition, a theft deterrent device 15 is assembled at the tip of the suspension member 11 that forms the commodity entry / exit portion 11a. The anti-theft device 15 includes a restriction device 17 that restricts the entry / exit operation of the product 7. FIG. 2 shows the entire restriction device 17, and FIG. 4 shows the structure of each part of the restriction device 17.

  The restricting device 17 will be described. For example, the restricting device 17 includes a box-shaped main body portion 19 (for example, made of synthetic tree resin) in which a blade-shaped movable member 18 is incorporated, and a tip end portion (a product entry / exit portion) of the suspension member 11. 11a) and a detachable mounting portion 21 (for example, made of synthetic tree resin). Incidentally, the main body 19 has a flat box shape extending in the vertical direction. The blade-shaped movable member 18 will be described later.

  Among these, the mounting portion 21 is formed so as to protrude from one end portion of the short insertion portion 23 and the short insertion portion 23 that can be inserted into the tip portion of the suspension member 11 as shown in FIG. 2, for example. And a female-side hinge component 25. The female hinge component 25 is formed by a fork end 27, for example.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the main body 19 includes a strip-shaped back wall 31 extending in the vertical direction, a lower wall 35 protruding from the lower edge of the back wall 31, and left and right edges of the back wall 31. Surrounded by a case 39 having a side wall portion 37 protruding from a male side, a male hinge component 41 integrally formed on the upper stage of the case 39, a lower wall portion 35, a side wall portion 37, and a hinge component 41. And a flat cover 43 that covers the open portion on the front side. Most of the left and right side wall portions 37 are cut out, and a pair of elongated openings 45 (FIGS. 1 and 2) are formed on both sides in the width direction of the main body portion 19 as the cover 43 is assembled. The male-side hinge constituting portion 41 is constituted by a fork end portion 47 that fits inside the fork end portion 27 (hinge constituting portion 25) of the mounting portion 21.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the fork end portion 27 on the mounting portion 21 side and the fork end portion 47 on the main body portion 19 side are rotatably connected by inserting the pin portion 52 and the pin insertion hole 54 formed respectively. Is done. Due to the hinge structure with the pin portion 52 and the pin insertion hole 54 as a rotation fulcrum, the entire main body portion 19 can be bent with respect to the axial direction of the short cylindrical fitting insertion portion 23. Both the outer shape of the main body 19 (including the fork end portion 47) and the outer shape of the mounting portion 21 (including the fork end portion 27) are sufficiently inserted into the rectangular opening 13 formed in advance in the product 7. The shape is possible.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the insertion portion 23 (mounting portion 21) is inserted into the distal end portion of the suspension member 11, and the main body portion 19 is arranged to be bendable at the distal end of the suspension member 11. In particular, the gap between the fork end portions 47 of the main body 19 is set to a size that allows the tip of the suspension member 11 to be sufficiently allowed. Using this gap, for example, as shown in FIG. At this time, the main body portion 19 allows the front end portion of the suspension member 11 to be allowed between the fork end portions 27 and 47. And the main-body part 19 is suspended in the bending | flexion attitude | position which a front surface faces frontward, allowing the front-end | tip part of the suspension member 11 with this clearance gap.

  When the product 7 suspended from the suspension member 11 is removed, as shown in FIG. 3, the main body portion 19 has a fork end portion 47 of the main body portion 19 and a fork end portion 27 of the mounting portion 21 in a linear shape. It is required to bend so as to be continuous. When bent, a path through which the product 7 is easily pulled out is formed across the insertion portion 23, the fork end portions 27 and 47, and the main body portion 19. In other words, a path through which the product 7 suspended from the suspension member 11 can be removed or the removed product 7 can be returned to the suspension member 11 through the body portion 19 is formed from the posture change of the body portion 19.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 1, 2, and 4, the movable member 18 assembled to the main body 19 includes a pair of flat insertion obstacles disposed on both sides in the width direction of the case 39 (back wall portion 31). 51 (corresponding to the insertion obstruction member of the present application). For example, all of the insertion obstacles 51 have a blade shape in outer shape. A circular notch 53 is formed on the proximal end side of each insertion obstacle 51 for the fulcrum. As shown in FIG. 4, each insertion obstacle 51 is fitted with a notch portion 53 and a pair of cylindrical pin portions 55 protruding from both sides in the width direction of the back wall portion 31 of the case 39 so as to be rotatable. It is supported rotatably. With this support, the insertion obstacle 51 has a protruding posture α (shown by a solid line in FIG. 1) protruding from each opening 45 of the main body 19 to both sides of the main body 19 with the pin 55 as a fulcrum. The retracted posture β (illustrated by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 1) that fits in the portion 19 is changed.

  Then, a situation that restricts the entry / exit operation of the product 7 from the projecting posture α of the insertion obstacle 51, that is, a situation in which the insertion obstacle 51 becomes an obstacle to insertion of the product 7 and the product 7 is difficult to come off. In addition, from the retracted posture β of the insertion obstacle 51, a situation in which the obstacle is eliminated and the product 7 can be inserted is created so that the product 7 can be easily removed. Incidentally, the insertion obstruction body 51 is molded from a synthetic resin member.

  Further, the base end portions of the pair of insertion obstacles 51 are integrally connected by a biasing member 56. The urging member 56 extends from the base end of each insertion obstacle 51 while being bent into a mountain shape with a convex upward so that a mountain-shaped portion 57a is formed between the base ends of the insertion obstacle 51, for example. It is comprised from the elongate arm part 57 made to do. The chevron 57a can be expanded and contracted in the vertical direction, and imparts a spring property with the pin portion 55 as a fulcrum to each insertion obstacle 51. From each opening 45 to each insertion obstacle 51, the side of the main body 19 Giving the urging force to overhang.

  Thereby, in the normal state, each insertion obstacle 51 protrudes on both sides of the main body 19 so as to become an obstacle that prevents the insertion of the commodity 7 as shown in FIG. Further, by placing the insertion obstacle 51 in the main body 19 against the elastic force of the arm portion 57 (storage), the obstacle is eliminated and the product 7 can be inserted. That is, a single urging member 56 constitutes a positioning structure 59 for positioning each insertion obstacle 51 in the extended posture α (shown in FIG. 4). Further, the arm portion 57 (the urging member 56) is formed by integral molding using a synthetic resin member together with the insertion obstacle 51, and the insertion member 51 and the arm portion 57 are integrated with the movable member 18 as shown in FIG. It consists of the parts that became. Incidentally, the lower wall portion 35 of the case 39 is provided with a stopper portion 61 that regulates the protruding posture α of the insertion obstacle 51 and a stopper portion 63 that regulates the retracted posture β (both in FIG. 4).

Next, the operation of the theft deterrent device 15 will be described.
As shown in FIG. 1, it is assumed that a large number of products 7 are suspended and displayed on a suspension member 11. At this time, the insertion obstacle 51 of the theft deterrent device 15 is positioned in an overhanging posture α projecting to both sides of the main body 19, and it is difficult to remove the product 7 on the suspension member 11 on the side of the main body 19. An obstacle is formed.

  As a result, when the product 7 is removed from the suspension member 11, the body portion 19 is bent as shown in FIG. 3 to form a path through which the product 7 can be easily removed between the suspension member 11 and the body portion 19. To do. Then, the left and right insertion obstacles 51 are pushed into the main body 19 for each product 7 to be removed. That is, for each product 7, the product 7 can be removed from the suspension member 11 for the first time by performing the obstacle elimination operation in which the insertion obstacle 51 is placed in the retracted posture β and inserted into the main body 19. The same work is imposed when returning the removed product 7 to the suspension member 11.

  In this way, the merchandise 7 must be placed through the surveillance camera (not shown) for monitoring the inside of the store by forcing the troublesome work of inserting the merchandise 7 through the main body 19 after the insertion obstacle 51 is in the retracted posture β. 7, that is, how many items 7 are pulled out of the suspension member 11, how many items 7 are returned, and the items 7 are returned. At the same time, the occurrence of fraud (theft) in which a large number of products 7 are extracted from the suspension member 11 is suppressed.

  The pair of insertion obstacles 51 that restricts the entry / exit operation of the product 7 is structured such that the two are integrally connected by the arm portion 57 (the biasing member 56). Are integrated into a single part, that is, one part (FIGS. 1 to 4).

  Therefore, it is possible to reduce the cost of the anti-theft device 15 with a simple structure. In particular, the insertion obstruction body 51 and the arm portion 57 (the urging member 56) can be easily made into one part by being integrally formed of a synthetic resin member, and can contribute to the cost reduction of the antitheft device 15.

  FIG. 5 shows a second embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment does not suspend a product from a suspension member protruding in an I shape as in the first embodiment, but an article display in which a product (not shown) is suspended from a suspension member 71 protruding in a U shape. The present invention is applied to the apparatus 1.

In the present embodiment, for example, a fork end-type hinge structure 73 that is pivotally connected to the tip of the U-shaped suspension member 71 is provided on the upper stage of the case 39 of the main body 19.
However, since other parts are the same as those in the first embodiment, the same parts as those in FIGS. 1 to 4 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof is omitted.

  Note that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications may be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. For example, in the present embodiment, the configuration in which the main body portion is rotatably supported at the distal end portion of the suspension member is described. However, the configuration is not limited to this, and the main body portion can be attached to and detached from the suspension member while maintaining the posture in which the product is easily removed. It may be configured to be fixed to. Moreover, although the urging member is composed of a mountain-shaped arm portion, other shapes may be used. Of course, the urging member is not limited as long as it is connected between the pair of insertion obstruction members and can position the insertion obstruction member in the extended posture. Of course, the product may be any product as long as it is a product that can be hung on the suspension member.
