DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a business hanger mainly used in a large-scale cleaning shop (cleaning factory) and the like, and sorts appropriately cleaned clothes into desired positions while being mounted on the hanger. TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a hanger having an identification data piece mounting portion suitable for an automatic distribution system which can be transported.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a large-scale cleaning shop (cleaning factory) or the like, it is possible to transport the cleaned clothes to desired positions (for example, sorted by each handling shop) with the clothes appropriately attached to a hanger. An automatic distribution system is adopted. The hanger used in this automatic dispensing system is disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 5-43972.
In general, a clothes hanger as described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Publication No. H10-209,873 is generally used. That is, a bar code tag is attached to the hanger, and the bar code tag can be read by a sensor while being conveyed by the automatic distribution system, so that sorting can be performed as appropriate.

[0003]

However, in the clothes hanger as described above, the bar code tag is attached to the front of the hanger so as to face the front of the clothes hanger. When the barcode tag is read by the sensor while it is being conveyed by the automatic dispensing system, the barcode tag cannot be read due to the relationship between the readable range of the sensor and the transport speed of the hanger. In this case, the time required for reading the data accurately by the sensor is short, and reading may not be possible or reading may be incorrect. In addition, when a large number of cleaned clothes are hung on a hanging rod or the like after the conveyance is completed, there is a difficulty that an operator has difficulty in checking the barcode tag.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, the present invention solves the above-mentioned difficulties and the like, and allows a sensor to accurately read a piece of identification data attached to a hanger without lowering the transport speed of the hanger. The hanger A according to claim 1 is a business-use hanger used in a cleaning shop or the like, the hanger base A2 supporting clothes, and the hanger base A2. And a data piece mounting portion B in which a base portion of the hook A1 is formed in an alligator. The data piece mounting portion B has identification data on which various data are displayed. Means is adopted in which the piece C is mounted and the data surface of the identification data piece C is appropriately angled in the horizontal direction with respect to a vertical plane including the entire hook A1.

Further, in the hanger A according to the second aspect, means for configuring the data piece mounting portion B so that the identification data piece C can be mounted detachably is adopted.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, the present invention will be described based on illustrated examples. A in the figure is a hanger of the present invention configured so as to be used mainly in an automatic dispensing system employed in a large cleaning shop (cleaning factory) or the like. Note that the automatic dispensing system is designed so that the appropriately cleaned clothes can be transported to the desired position while being mounted on the hanger A (for example, sorted for each dealer).

The hanger A according to the present invention is provided so as to be connected to a hanger base A2 for supporting clothes, and to be provided substantially above the center of the hanger base A2 so that the hanger base A2 can be stably hung with the clothes. The formed substantially inverted hook A1 and the data piece mounting portion B where the base of the hook A1 is formed in a straight line portion are appropriately formed of a synthetic resin material (or a part thereof is appropriately formed of metal). May be used.) In addition, the data piece mounting section B has the identification data piece C on which various data are displayed removably (or irremovably) mounted, and the data surface of the identification data piece C covers the entire hook A1. It is configured so as to form an appropriate angle in the horizontal direction with respect to the vertical plane. That is, as shown in FIG.
The plane (Y) including the data surface of the identification data piece C is set so as to form an appropriate angle in the horizontal direction with respect to the vertical plane (X) including the entire hanger base A2.

In the example shown in the drawing, the data piece mounting section B is provided with insertion grooves 1 on both sides thereof, and the identification data pieces C are inserted by inserting both side edges of the identification data piece C into the insertion grooves 1. Is configured to be removably attachable (see FIG. 2).
Incidentally, the data piece mounting section B may be constituted by a simple flat surface so that the identification data piece C can be mounted by an adhesive means.

The identification data piece C has, for example, an elongated rectangular plate shape, and its surface is a data surface. This data surface uses, for example, a bar code (see FIG. 1).
A device that can be appropriately colored and color-coded, or other optical identification means is employed. The identification data piece C
May be made of a suitable sealing material provided with an adhesive layer on the back surface.

The specific configuration, shape, dimensions, and material of the hanger A, the specific configuration, shape, dimensions, and material of the hook A1, and the specific configuration, shape, dimensions, and material of the hanger base A2, and the data piece mounting portion B The specific configuration, shape, size, arrangement position, specific configuration, shape, size, material of the identification data piece C, the specific shape, size, etc. of the insertion groove 1 are not limited to the illustrated examples and the like. It can be freely set as appropriate.

The hanger A of the present invention is constructed as described above. Next, an example of its use will be described. First, in an automatic dispensing system, a portion for linearly transporting cleaned clothes appropriately is provided. The sensor D is arranged obliquely in the vicinity. Then, while the clothes, which have been cleaned at this portion, are conveyed appropriately and conveyed within the reading range (Z) of the sensor D, the data of the identification data piece C mounted on the data piece mounting portion B of the hanger A is read. The surface is read by the sensor D (see FIG. 3), and based on this data, the computer operates to dispense the appropriately cleaned clothes.

[0012]

Therefore, the hanger A according to claim 1 is
A business hanger used in a cleaning shop or the like, wherein a hanger base A2 for supporting clothes, a hook A1 provided substantially at the upper center of the hanger base A2, and a base of the hook A1 are formed in an alligator. The data piece mounting section B includes an identification data piece C on which various data are displayed, and the data surface of the identification data piece C includes the entire hook A1. Since it is configured to make an appropriate angle in the horizontal direction with respect to such a vertical plane, a large cleaning shop (cleaning factory)
In the automatic distribution system adopted in the above, the data surface of the identification data piece C has an appropriate angle in the horizontal direction with respect to the transport direction of the hanger A, and the data surface of the identification data piece C The time during which the data can be captured within the readable range of the sensor D becomes longer, and the data on the data surface can be accurately read by the sensor D, so that there is no danger of being unable to read or erroneous reading as in the related art. In other words, the appropriately cleaned clothes can be easily sorted (for example, sorted by dealers) and transported to the desired position while being attached to the hanger A.

In addition, even when a large number of cleaned clothes are hung on the hanging rod or the like after the conveyance, the operator can easily check the data surface of the identification data piece C. Thus, the hanger A is very excellent in work efficiency. Moreover, the structure is simple, suitable for mass production, can be provided at low cost, and has excellent durability.

Further, in the hanger A according to the second aspect, since the data piece mounting portion B is configured such that the identification data piece C can be detachably mounted, the identification data piece C having a different data surface can be attached to the data piece. The compatible hanger A can be easily mounted on the mounting portion B, is easy to handle, has excellent workability, and is optimal for the automatic dispensing system.
