Abstract

FIELD: trade. SUBSTANCE: device has goods storing unit, communication unit with communication line channels, distributing unit with receiver and AND gates, comparators and generator of maximal purchase level signal. Goods storing unit is connected to generator of maximal purchase level signal by means of any communication channel. If signal which corresponds to maximal purchase level is greater than minimal sell level than comparator generates signal which is sent to distributing unit which another input receives signal which permits user to receive required goods at discount price that is to say at minimal sell level. This results in possibility to increase speed of goods turn-over by means of providing users with goods at discount prices. This leads to increased efficiency in field of manufacturing and selling goods. EFFECT: increased functional capabilities due to sale at discount prices. 2 cl, 1 dwg

Description

 The invention relates to the field of trade and can be used in systems for the sale of goods (provision of services) in both retail and wholesale.

Known vending machines for the sale of matches, cigarettes and other goods, the programs for which are coins or tokens, the physical parameters of which are determined in the program block [1]
A device for selling piece goods containing a unit for setting a minimum sale price, a multi-coin mechanism, a unit for storing goods, a driver of a signal for a maximum purchase price by a consumer, representing a consumer block [2]
The buyer lowers the coins into the slot of the coin mechanism. If the value of the set of coins available to the consumer, lowered into the coin mechanism, coincides with the cost of the goods set in advance, the drive is activated to ensure the delivery of the goods.

 Known devices allow you to receive goods from a source of goods, representing the storage unit of goods for a uniquely set price.

 At the same time, there is no connection between the source of goods and the consumer block, which could help increase consumer interest in acquiring goods and improve the economic performance of the source of goods.

 The aim of the invention is to increase the efficiency of the sales system by providing consumers with discounts at a set price.

 The system is shown in the drawing.

 The unit for storing goods 1 with its information output through the communication node, in the form of channels of the communication line 2, is connected to the input of the distribution block 3 and the unit for setting the minimum selling price 4, comparators 5, matching elements 6, and input elements for information 7 form the driver of the minimum purchase price for consumer 8 , means of delivery of goods 9.

 The system may also contain additional indicators of the set price for the goods, the minimum sale price and / or the percentage of the discount provided by the source of goods.

 Block 1, made, for example, in the form of an automated warehouse of goods, retail or other premises, for the provision of paid services with appropriate controls.

 The signal from block 1 is transmitted via a communication line to the input of the receiver of the distribution block (not shown in the drawing). According to this signal, at the first input of the corresponding And element (not shown in the drawing), the potential corresponding to the signal "+1" is set, and at the output of block 4, a potential is established proportional to the price of the goods at a discount, which is supplied to the first input of the comparator. Signals proportional to the minimum sale price, as well as the percentage of the discount provided, can be transmitted to the corresponding indicators (not shown in the drawing), which can also independently display the set price for the goods (without discount).

A signal proportional to the maximum purchase price that a consumer can pay is set in input element 7 _I- 7 _II using, for example, a potentiometer, matching element 6 _I - 6 _II , input element 7 can be calibrated both in rubles and in another currency . In the case of a potentiometer, the signal is transmitted to element 6.

 If the buyer sets a price lower than the minimum selling price of the goods, in accordance with the discount provided, the signal from element 6 transmitted to the second input of the comparator is less than the signal applied to the first input of the comparator from block 4, and the potential does not change at the output of the comparator.

 If the buyer sets a price equal to or higher than the minimum sale price of the goods, in accordance with the discount provided, the signal from element 7 transmitted to the second input of the comparator is equal to or exceeds the signal supplied to the first input of the comparator from block 4, and a signal is generated at the output of the comparator "I" supplied to the second input of the distribution block element.

 As a result of the fact that permitting signals are supplied to the inputs of the elements And, a signal is generated at their outputs that allows the driver 8 to purchase the goods at a discounted price.

 Such permission can be issued in the form of a signal transmitted to the shaper 8, as well as to the storage unit of goods through communication lines.

 However, the optimal solution is to issue a shaper of a token, card or other tangible carrier, according to which it can purchase the goods at any time convenient for it, or limited by the administrative unit, by presenting the token or card and paying the purchase price at a discounted price.

 Moreover, in the case of removal of the unit 1 for storing goods from the shaper 8, these units can be connected using a vehicle: land, water, air or any other means of delivery. In the case of a significant removal of the goods storage unit from the distribution unit, these units can be connected by any long-distance communication (telephone, telegraph, etc.).

 The system can provide sequential operation with several consumer units in the form of shapers 8 without any changes or additions.

 In parallel and series-parallel operation with several consumers, an increase in the number of shapers 8, comparators 5, as well as the synchronization of their work will be required.
