Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a product advancing device for a product display case, and more specifically, for displaying and selling products such as cigarettes and confectionery, the product can be stably placed in the display case. The present invention relates to a product advancing device for a product display case, which is used by being inserted and held in a product display case in order to push out rear products in order while sequentially storing and holding the products in series.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, a mere box has generally been used as a product display case.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

Therefore, in the conventional product display case, as a result of the removal of the products stored in series, an empty area is generated,
In addition to the so-called missing teeth display state,
Since the residual products often shift or fall, it was impossible to prevent the viewer from feeling more and more cluttered.

In addition, when displaying and using multiple display cases in the form of shelves, it is necessary to remove the products from the case located at the top, but for the lower cases, the one at the top interferes and the hands are inserted. Since it is difficult, it is difficult to take out the product in the rear part (the inner part of the case).

On the other hand, even if only the coil spring is simply placed in the case, a stable pressure holding action of the product cannot be obtained in the first place, and the coil spring often pops out of the case.
Moreover, since one hand is pressed to hold the compression of the coil spring, it is unavoidable that the work of supplying and storing the product in the case cannot be performed efficiently.

Therefore, as a result of various studies conducted by the inventor of the present invention, as a result, the product can be stably stored and held in the display case, and the rear (back) product is sequentially pushed forward and guided. This is a device for inventing a product advancement device.

[Means for Solving the Problems]

That is, according to the present invention, the guide rail is inserted into the hollow portion of the coil spring, and the rear end portion of the coil spring is fixed to the support frame portion standing upright on the rear portion of the guide rail, and the stopper piece for locking the support frame portion is provided. A product advancing device for a product display case, comprising a product pressing plate provided at the front end of the coil spring.

〔Example〕

 The present invention will be further described below with reference to the drawings illustrating one embodiment.

Reference numeral 1 is a coil spring, and a guide rail 2 is inserted into the hollow portion of the coil spring while being in contact with the lower inner edge of the coil spring 1. still,
The size of the coil spring 1 used here is appropriately selected according to the size of the displayed product.

The guide rails guide the expansion and contraction of the coil spring 1 stably, and the guide rails may be only the rails 2 inserted through the coil springs 1, but guide auxiliary rails 3a and 3b are further parallel to both sides of the guide rails 2. The structure is such that the coil spring 1 is arranged so that it is in contact with the lower outer edge of the coil spring 1 without being inserted into the coil spring 1 and the coil spring 1 is sandwiched between the guide rail 2 and the guide auxiliary rails 3a and 3b. This is more advantageous in that it can be stopped and smooth and stable expansion and contraction of the coil spring 1 can be obtained. In this case, it is desirable that the three rails 2, 3a, 3b are properly attached and fixed to the base rods 3c which are orthogonal to each other in order to keep them in parallel.

The parallel positional relationship between the guide rail 2 and the guide auxiliary rails 3a and 3b is not only parallel to the same plane due to the coil spring holding, but also the diameter of the entire coil spring 1 and the diameter of the coil itself, and further the rails 2 and 3.
The guide rails 2 may be parallel to each other and the steps may be parallel to each other depending on the diameters and thicknesses of a and 3b.

The guide rail 2 and the guide auxiliary rails 3a and 3b may have any shape, but a round bar (tube) type is preferable in order to obtain a smoother expansion and contraction of the coil spring 1.

A column frame 4 is provided upright on the rear portion of the guide rail 2, and the rear end portion of the coil spring 1 is attached and fixed.

The method of forming the column frame portion 4 is not particularly limited, but it is convenient to bend the guide rail 2 and / or the guide auxiliary rails 3a, 3b appropriately upward so as to be integrally formed.

Reference numeral 5 denotes a flat plate-shaped pressing plate, which is provided with a stopper piece 6 that engages with the support frame portion 4 and is attached to the front end portion of the coil spring 1.

[Action]

Since the present invention is constructed as described above, it is simply placed in the display case 7, and the coil spring 1 is first compressed by the fingers to lock the stopper piece 6 to the support frame portion 4, and the fingers are released. However, since the coil spring 1 does not restore (expand), the product 8 can be placed and stored in series on the guide rail 2 very easily. After that, if the stopper piece 6 is released from the lock, the stored product is stably held by the pressing action of the pressing plate 5 accompanying the restoration (expansion) of the coil spring 1.

Further, when the stored products are extracted in such a state, at the same time when the products are extracted, the rear products are pushed forward in order by the pressing plate 5, so that the products can be always displayed in the front for easy extraction and an unsightly air space part is generated. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the product from slipping or falling.

[Effect of device]

As described above, when the product forwarding apparatus according to the present invention is used for a product display case, the product can be displayed in order from the front without always producing an empty space, and the product can be stably stored and held.

Further, particularly when the product display case using the forward feeding device of the present invention is used in a plurality of shelves, the stored products are always displayed in order from the front, and thus the product display with an extremely excellent take-out property is possible. Shelf can be provided.
