JP, 2001-240225, A [Problems to be solved by the invention]
[0006]
Among the above-mentioned conventional articles, particularly lightweight articles (for example, cigarettes, etc.) cannot be moved automatically, so that a pressing tool pulled by a spring has been used to move the articles. In the above, the spring and the pressing tool must be connected, and the structure of the display shelf may be complicated with respect to the storage form and storage location when the spring contracts.
[Means for Solving the Problems]
[0007]
The present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems by placing a pressing tool that can automatically slide on the rearmost part of the display article.
[0009]
That this invention, on the shelves, in parallel installed lower bearing in which the upper surface and the plane at predetermined intervals, as well as erection the roller shaft of the roller mounting the display article on the lower bearing, onto the roller shaft An upper bearing that covers the upper portion is set to form a display shelf, the display shelf is installed on the shelf frame at a predetermined inclination angle, and the box is provided with a contact plate that contacts the article on the display shelf . a display shelf system imparted with automated movement force pressing tool accommodating the weight to the article, characterized in that the contact installation in the display article to automatically move, abutting placement of pusher may display a pusher It is placed on a roller on which an article is placed, or a hook of a pressing tool is hung on a hanging rod laid on a shelf board. Further, the predetermined inclination angle is 4 degrees to 25 degrees, and the construction of the rollers is constructed by shifting the pitch of the adjacent rollers.
[0010]
Slope in the case of bridging a display shelf to shelf inventory have you to above, thus determined weight of the press applying member. For example, the greater the weight of the pressing tool, the greater the pressing force. Therefore, the inclination angle of the display shelf may be small. However, when the weight of the pressing tool is small, the pressing force decreases unless the inclination angle of the display shelf is increased. The inclination angle is determined as described above. If the inclination angle is too large, the pressing force to the display article becomes large. If the inclination angle is too small, the pressing force to the display article becomes small and automatic movement is difficult. Therefore, although the inclination angle is set to 4 degrees to 25 degrees, the inclination angle varies depending on the pressing force due to the weight of the pressing tool and the total frictional force of the display article.
[0011]
In the above description, the pressing tool is placed on the roller. However, a lifting hook can be provided on the upper part so that the pressing tool can slide along the hanging frame.
[0012]
In this case, the pressing force can be adjusted by changing the inclination angle of the hanging rod.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0013]
In the present invention, when the display article on the display shelf cannot be moved automatically or when the automatic movement is not smooth, the back of the display article is pushed with a pressing tool to smoothly move the display article.
[0014]
In the present invention, a pressing tool having a predetermined weight is placed on a roller of a display shelf, and the moving force of the pressing tool is changed to a pressing force. Therefore, the display shelf is inclined to facilitate the automatic movement of the display article and to apply a necessary pressing force to the pressing tool. Therefore, in order to obtain the necessary pressing force, it is necessary to incline the display shelf in order to increase the appropriate weight and component force. The greater the inclination angle of the display shelf, the heavier the pressing tool, the greater the pressing force.
[0015]
In the present invention, since the lower bearing surface of the roller is a flat surface, the article receiving surface of the roller can always maintain high level accuracy, and the stability of the article is extremely good. Further, by arranging the adjacent rollers at different pitches (FIG. 5) , there is little change in the vertical movement when the article is moved, the stability is good, and the generation of noise is also small.
[Example 1]
[0016]
An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The inside of a planar rectangular shelf outer frame 1 is partitioned in the longitudinal direction by partition plates 2 and 2. To the shelf outer frame 1 of the bottom plate 3 above, is placed the lower bearing 4, 4 in the longitudinal direction, the axis 5a of the rollers 5,5 to the lower bearing 4,4 above, bridged the 5a, the axis 5a, onto 5a Then, the upper bearing frame 6 having the side inverted U-shaped groove 6a was attached and fixed to form the display shelf 10 (FIGS. 2 and 3).
[0017]
In each section formed by the partition plates 2 and 2, a pressing tool 11 containing a weight 9 is placed in a box 8 having a contact plate 7 on one side (article side).
[0018]
In the embodiment, the partition plates 2 and 2 are provided in the shelf outer plate 1, the rollers 5 and 5 are rotatably installed between the partition plates, and are pressed by the upper bearing frame 6.
[0019]
Therefore, in actual assembly, the rollers 5 and 5 are installed as shown by an arrow 24 in FIG. 2, and then the upper bearing frame 6 is fitted as shown by an arrow 25 to fix the rollers 5 and 5 in place.
[0020]
After completion of the assembly, the weight 9 is accommodated in the box 8 as indicated by an arrow 26, the pressing tool 11 is assembled, and this is set as indicated by an arrow 27.
[0021]
The pressing tool 11 can adjust the magnitude of the pressing force by replacing the weight 9. If the display shelf 10 is installed on the support frame 12 of the display shelf 10 at an inclination θ (for example, 10 degrees), the display shelf device 15 of the present invention is completed.
[0022]
In the above, when the display article 13 is arranged on the display shelf 10 and the pressing tool 11 is brought into contact with the rearmost surface of the display article, the display article is always pressed by the pressing tool 11.
[0023]
Therefore, when the foremost display article 13a is taken out as shown by arrow 14, the remaining display article 13 is pressed as shown by arrow 16, and the space 13a from which the display article 13 is removed is automatically filled.
[0024]
In this way, every time the display article 13 is taken out, the remaining display article automatically moves, and the display state can be kept normal.
[0025]
The inclination angle of the display shelf 10 is determined by the necessary pressing force (component force of weight) of the pressing tool 11. That is, if the display article is pressed with a force larger than the total frictional force of the display article, the display article can be moved smoothly. Therefore, if the inclination angle θ is selected so as to increase the weight of the pressing tool 11 and the component force due to the inclination angle θ with respect to the total frictional force, the purpose can be achieved.
[Example 2]
[0026]
In the first embodiment, the pressing tool is placed on the roller 5, but it can be guided by the hanging rod 17 installed upward (FIG. 7A).
[0027]
That is, if the hanging rod 17 is installed on the rear surface of the display shelf 10 located at the upper part or the support frame 18 of the display shelf 10, and the roller hook 19 of the pressing tool 11 is suspended on the hanging rod 17, the pressing tool 11 becomes the hanging rod 17. The display article 13 can be pressed. The pressing tool 11 has a weight 9 accommodated in the box 8.
[0028]
In this case, if one end of the hanging rod 17 is attached to the hinge 20 and the receiving member 21 at the other end is movable so that the inclination angle is variable, the pressing force of the pressing tool 11 of the display article 13 is taken into consideration and the angle is set. Can be determined. For example, if the hanging rod 17 is moved in the direction of the arrow 22 as indicated by the chain line 23, the pressing force increases as in the pressing tool 11, and the force for pressing the display article 11 increases.
【The invention's effect】
[0029]
According to this invention, even if it is a comparatively light roller support, there exists an effect which can press-move the display article which cannot be moved automatically, and can always maintain an alignment state.
[0030]
Further, the structure of the pressing tool is simple and easy to handle, and can be reliably moved regardless of the number of displayed items. Since it is a roller bearing, there is an effect that the movement of the article is light and noise is low, and there is an effect that the vertical movement of the article can be almost eliminated if the roller train is installed with a pitch difference.
