Patented June 9, 1942 SHOP, BAZAAR, AND THE LIKE Thomas Edward Foulkes, Ilford, England Application February 24, 1940, Serial No. 320,562 In Great Britain February 25, 1939 7 claims.
This invention is directed to the construction, lay-out and fitting of shops, bazaars, stores and the like, and whilst primarily residing in the art or sphere of building and construction, is concerned ultimately with problems economic, commercial `and aesthetic. The realm in which the invention is thought to have the greatest scope, as at present envisaged, is that of bazaar trading, such as in any of the five and ten cent store groups, wherein a sa-les fioor is usually provided with a peripheral counter, more or less continuous, and a number of island -counters surrounded thereby, these last being of Varyingsize and arranged according to the shape and size of the room so as to leave gangways or corridors between themselves, and between themselves and the peripheral counter.
The invention, however, is applicable to other types of store, shop, or the like, including those in which, instead of there being counters to display goods, there is service furniture such las chairs and fitting stools as in a shoe store. For convenience of explanation, the inventionwill be described as applied to the bazaar type of store, but is not to be considered as limited thereto.
In every store, two factors call :for iioor space, the one being the customers, land the other being the goods to be sold, with which lattermay be grouped the assistants who are to do the selling. Obviously, to make counters large enough to contain all the goods in the store will encroach too largely on the space for the customers, and it has, therefore, been customary to divide off a part of the store as a depot having parallel rows of shelving fixtures for stock, and to `arr-ange the sales counters and corridors in the remainder of the store, the counters, and possibly fixed shelving lbehind the peripheral counter, carrying sufficient stock for a short sales session, whether day, half-day or less.
Such arrangements require the frequent`V replenishing of the local stocks (on counters and shelves) which, in the case of short sales sessions, involves inconvenience and 4annoyance to customers, and also they result in the corridors or gangways between the rows of shelves in the depot, being idle for the greater part of the day and, therefore, making an uneconomic demand on the floor space of the store. Again, the necessity for a separate depot for bulk stocks often prevents a symmetrical arrangement of the sales room, and frequently forbids the provision of a double-ended store, i. e. one having a display front and entrances in two parallel streets.
The object of the present invention is to -provide a method of Iconstruction and arrangement of store, bazaar, or the like, which will avoid the characteristic disadvantages of the hitherto known art, and which will provide the maximum of economy, convenience and sales attraction.
In the accompanying drawings:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of one interior corner of a bazaar store constructed according to this invention;
Fig. 2 is a plan of the same store;
Fig. 3 is a plan of the store as it would have been set out according to the hitherto known art; and
Fig. 4 is a plan of a part of the store embodying a modied form of the invention;
Fig. 5 is a cross-sectional view of a bank of storage shelving such as is shown in Fig. 2;
Fig. 6 is a plan of a part of a shoe-store constructed and arranged according to the invention.
As shown, the store comprises a rectangular floor I surrounded by en-closing walls 2 on three sides, and display windows 3 on the fourth side. Entrance doors 4 are disposed between the display Windows 3, and exit doors 5 are disposed in that wall 2 which is opposite the display windows. In cases where the floor I extends between two thoroughfares, there may be display windows at two opposite ends of the floor I, thus making the store a double-fronted one. It will be noted more especially from Fig. 2 that no part of the floor space I is isolated as a separate storage depot, so that the store furniture and fittings may be arranged symmetrically with the rectangular shape of the enclosure, be the store single' fronted or double fronted. Arranged against the walls 2 are ranks 6 of shelving, the shelving being fixed with respect to the wall, and comprising open-fronted rectangular storage compartments. In some instances the shelving 6 may be in movable units, as is the case with the further shelving described below, but in the present instance it will be referred to as fixed shelving. Some or all the shelves of the shelving 6 may be adjustable in height between the dividing walls or partitions l, or all the shelves may be in xed positions, as desired. The fixed shelving 6 ymay be less in height than the walls 2, as in Fig. l, or may be of the same height, as in Fig. 5. Should there be windows in any of the walls 2, the shelving 6 may be omitted at such points, in the same manner as it is omitted from the positions opposite the exit doors 5. Normally, however, the side walls 2 will be division walls between the store and adjoining buildings and will be Without apertures.
Arranged in front of each fixed rank 6 are two rows 'I and B'of mobile shelving, each of these rows comprising side-by-side wheeled units of shelving arranged to run in tracks or channels 9 let into the floor I, see Fig. 5. Each unit in the rows 'I and 8 consists of base, side walls, top and shelves, with or without a back, and the units Amay be of a lesser width, that is, with one compartment at each shelf level, or of a greater width with two compartments at each shelf level. Both forms appear in Fig. 1. The bases are provided with wheels I0, see Fig. 5, and the sides of the units may have projecting buffers II, to leave linger space 'between them. The number of units in each row VI and 8 will be such as not completely to cover the xed shelving 6. In this Way, it is possible to divide the units in the two front rows so as to .give access to the shelving, behind, all the units being open to the front.
Arranged in front of each of the several assemblies of shelving is a counter, which may be substantially straight as shown at I2 in Fig. 2, or may be of improved serratedv form as shown at I3 and I4 in the same gure. Such improved counters give an increased surface area for display or sales purposes, within a given length, yet no part is of more than a little above normal distance from the reach of a customer. Again, the reach between a customer on. one side of the counter and a salesman on the other side need not be more than the smallest width of the counter.
What is a still further advantage of the improved counters is that the serrations form pockets or recesses for the buying customers, to prevent such customers impeding the general stream of customers along the corridor. This is indicated at IL' in Fig. 2. Similarly the Walking space for the sales-hands, between the counters and the storage shelving, need only be small, as such persons may stand in the recesses of the counter and leave a clear gangway behind them. The top surface of the counters may be plain, or may be divided into compartments for small articles.
In front of the rows of shelving 6, I and sliding boards or panels either merely to conceal the contents of some of the shelving, or to serve as notice boards or display panels, or even to have shallow supports on them for small flat articlesl Such boards vwill be movable sideways on suitable tracks.
In the case of a wide floor, such as the one shown, additional co-operating storage and counters may be provided in the central part of the floor, in one, two or more places. In Fig. 2, backto-back fixed banks of shelving I6 are provided,
having movable units of shelving II in front oi them, and the whole being surrounded by the improved serrated counter I8.
A comparison of Figs. 2 and 3 will reveal. the
salient advantages of the invention. The total j oor area is the same in each case, but whereas in the old arrangements of Fig. 3 approximately one-third is taken as a store-room or depot, in the new arrangements of Fig. 2 the whole of the floor is a sales room. The corridors of the separate store-room in Fig. 3 are idle for the greater part of the time and represent so much waste space, and in addition, the separate store room militates against the use of a double-fronted shop. lMore than this however, the counter area I5 may be provided, i
Cil
in Fig. 2 is increased by 33%;%, and the cubic capacity of the storage shelving is increased by over 15%. The invention, therefore, provides, in a given floor area, greater storage for stocks, greater display, greater customer space and greater accessibility of goods than in any known arrangement.
Referring now to Fig. 4, provision is made for supplying goods to the storage shelving 6, 1 and 8 from behind, so as entirely to eliminate, any interference with the selling and buying activities. In this case all the storage shelving is made up of side-by-side wheeled containers on tracks, and a corridor or alley I9 is left between the rearmost row 6, and the wall 2, the corridor having doors 2t at the ends. Additional tracks 2| are laid in the corridor for the shunting of some of the containers into the corridors where they may be filled. The containers in this arrangement will be open at the back and front, so that replenishments of goods may be made from the corridor I9. The corridor and its doors will be such as to allow a truck or the like to enter from the street.
When the movable units of shelving are tall and extend up to a ceiling or other overhead member, guides may be provided to prevent forward tipping of the units, especially if the units are formed with ladders to give access to the upper parts. One form of guide is shown in Fig. 5, and comprises an angle iron strip 22 secured below the ceiling, and slotted plates 23 on the side walls of the units, the depending web of the angle lying in the slots of the plates.
The invention is not limited to the type of store or shop in which goods are sold over a counter, it being applicable also to shops having other service furniture. Fig. 6 shows a part of a shoe store in which are chairs 24 and fitting stools 25, arranged in rows parallel with and between compact storage assemblies. A screen 26 is shown between the entrance door and the chairs.
The invention, in addition to being applicable to shops, stores, and the like is applicable to some types of workroom or factory. For example, the counters may be replaced by machinery, such as benches of sewing machines, or packing machinery, the machine operatives in such cases taking 'their raw or partly-prepared materials from the shelving 6, 'I and 8 to which shelving the materials will have been supplied from behind, and either passing their work along the bench for further processing, or otherwise disposing of it in accordance with known factory usages.
