Definitions
- the present invention relates to a piece of furniture intended for the marketing of small products, and to a shelf provided with dividers and intended for such a piece of furniture.
- the invention relates more specifically to tablets allowing rational organization of the products they carry.
- multi-storey furniture each comprising, at the front, on the customer side, a presentation member, generally inclined, which presents the products for sale and which, more often than not, allows the customer to 'try the products.
- Behind this presentation organ is placed a tablet carrying the products for sale and on which the customer enters the product he wants to buy.
- This application whose purpose is the sale of products, therefore requires that the products are easily accessible to the customer.
- the display unit placed in front of the shelf although it is an essential element for the incentive to purchase by the customer, is clearly a hindrance for access to the products placed back on the shelf. As the floors are close to allow the marketing of a large number of products, access to the tablet by sight and touch is relatively limited. It is therefore essential that the products sold on the tablet are easily accessible.
- French Patent No. 2,746,283 describes a device for presenting bottles in which strips integral with separators can slide in longitudinal grooves.
- U.S. Patent No. 6,299,004 describes shelves in which dividers can slide the full length of a shelf.
- the end of separators formed from curved wire slides in a groove.
- British Patent No. 522,074 describes a system in which separators are provided with parts which guide and retain them inside grooves, by the use of elastic devices.
- British patent application No. 2 205 226 also describes presentation shelves having dividers held by parts which can slide in longitudinal grooves.
- the invention relates to a system which overcomes these drawbacks.
- dividers which can occupy any position along the shelf and allow the adaptation of the product accommodation spaces to the exact width of the products, can be set up and moved very simply, almost to the blind.
- partitioning fingers possibly fitted with return devices and fixed to the separators themselves, allow the products to be stored on the shelf without requiring delicate positioning operations, since the partitioning fingers can be mounted on the separators outside the device, and their displacement can also be carried out practically blind. Thanks to these characteristics, the space available on the tablet can be optimally used, and the management of the products placed on the tablet requires very little attention.
- the invention relates to a product support shelf with access from the front, of the type which comprises a generally planar product support surface, a stop member placed at the front part of the shelf for retaining the products.
- the tablet having at least one continuous groove parallel to the direction of its front part, and at least one practically flat separator whose plane is practically perpendicular to the surface of the tablet, the separator having at least one positioning device which cooperates with the groove so that its plane is practically perpendicular to the groove, in practically any position along the groove;
- the tablet and the separator have cooperating fastening devices which include a magnet placed in the separator or the tablet, and a member ferromagnetic placed in the shelf or the separator respectively.
- the separator further comprises a partition finger practically perpendicular to the plane of the separator and movable along the separator.
- the invention in another embodiment, relates to a front-access product support shelf, of the type which comprises a generally planar product support surface, a stop member placed at the front part of the shelf. to retain the products, the shelf having at least one continuous groove parallel to the direction of its front part, and at least one practically flat separator whose plane is practically perpendicular to the surface of the shelf, the separator having at least one device for positioning which cooperates with the groove so that its plane is practically perpendicular to the groove, in practically any position along the groove, the shelf and the separator having cooperating fixing devices; according to the invention, the separator further comprises a partition finger practically perpendicular to the plane of the separator and movable along the separator.
- the separator in both embodiments, it is advantageous for the separator to include a finger retention device in position on the separator.
- the device for retaining the finger on the separator comprises a rack formed at one edge of the separator and a toothed member formed on the finger.
- the device for retaining the finger on the separator comprises a slide formed along the separator, parallel to the surface of the shelf, and a sliding member formed on the finger.
- the device for retaining the finger on the separator comprises a longitudinal groove, parallel to the surface of the tablet and intended to guide a projection of the finger, a member for ferromagnetic material secured to the separator, and a magnet secured to the finger.
- the separator further comprises a partition finger recall device intended to recall towards the front part of the tablet the products placed on the tablet between the finger and this front part.
- the device for positioning the separator is a section of bar integral with the separator and which has dimensions such that, when the separator is mounted on the shelf and the section of bar is housed in the groove, the section of bar, at least on one side of the separator, has a surface which lies practically in the plane of the surface of the shelf.
- the invention also relates to a piece of furniture intended for the marketing of products of small dimensions, comprising at least one assembly formed by a presentation device and a shelf for supporting products on sale; according to the invention, the presentation device is arranged in front of a tablet according to one of the preceding paragraphs.
- the assembly formed by the presentation member and the shelf can slide in a substantially horizontal direction relative to the rest of the cabinet, and releases a store space placed under the shelf.
- the plane of the tablet is tilted forward.
- the piece of furniture comprises several assemblies with display member and shelf, and it comprises, for each set, a lighting member intended to illuminate both the presentation member and the shelf.
- a lighting member intended to illuminate both the presentation member and the shelf.
- FIG. 1 is a side elevation view of a floor a marketing cabinet comprising a shelf according to the invention
- Figure 2 is a perspective view of a piece of shelf having a divider in one embodiment of the invention
- Figure 3 is a perspective view similar to Figure 2 but showing another embodiment of a separator comprising a product return device
- FIG. 4 represents another embodiment of the tablet, separator and finger.
- FIG. 1 shows a floor of a marketing cabinet which, in the example shown, is intended for the sale of beauty products in self-service stores.
- a piece of furniture comprises several superimposed stages as shown in FIG. 1.
- Each stage 10 comprises a presentation device 12, a shelf 14 for supporting products according to the invention and, optionally, a reserve of products 16.
- the presentation device is tilted towards the potential customer. It essentially comprises a front part 18 advantageously made of a diffusing and colored plastic material, possibly intended to bear inscriptions, in particular the brand of the products presented, and a support part 20.
- a lighting device 22 which comprises an elongated lamp 24.
- This lamp 24 is essentially intended to illuminate the presentation device of the floor placed below. However, it also lights up the diffusing part before 18 and thus clearly shows the inscriptions placed on the front face of this part 18.
- the display device usually includes a molded plastic element for positioning and displaying different products, for example beauty products, lipsticks, creams, mascaras, etc., and some of these products are often available in order to that customers can possibly try them.
- the essential role of this presentation system is to encourage customers to buy products. However, since these are self-service stores, for products to be actually purchased, they should be readily available when a customer is encouraged to purchase them. For this reason, the shelf 14 is intended to present these products so that a customer can easily grasp the product he wishes to buy. As shown in FIG. 1, the shelf 14 is delimited by front 25 and rear parts 26. Between these two parts, most often parallel, the shelf has a flat surface 28.
- the furniture can contain as many different products as possible, it is desirable that the floors are as close as possible one above the other, especially in the part which is at eye and hand height. potential customers.
- the floors must not be so close that access to the products placed on the support shelf 14 is impossible or even difficult.
- this optimal spacing is such that a space is normally unoccupied under the shelf 14, so that it is advantageous, on a purely optional basis, to use this space to incorporate a reserve 16 of products whose access is difficult, but which is reserved for store staff.
- FIG. 2 indicates details of the support shelf 14.
- the support shelf 14 is formed from folded sheet metal constituting, on either side of its surface 28 for supporting products, the front part 25 and the rear part 26 for retaining products, and, in the middle of the surface 28, a groove 30 of constant width placed over the entire length of the shelf.
- this tablet The role of this tablet is to allow the customer to have access to products the presentation of which has been carried out on the presentation device 12.
- the products must be placed closest to the front 25, that is to say in the most accessible place, and not be mixed with each other. Indeed, if the customer has to spend time looking for a product, he is dissuaded from making a purchase.
- the tablet according to the invention comprises separators, and FIG. 2 shows an example of a separator 32 of this type.
- the separator 32 has a substantially planar shape perpendicular to the surface 28 of the tablet and to the direction of the groove 30 thereof.
- the positioning of the separator 32 is ensured by a section of bar 34 integral with the separator 32 and of section complementary to that of the groove 30.
- the upper surface of the section of bar 34 is preferably practically in the plane of the surface 28 shelf, so that products that slide on the surface 28 of the shelf can pass over the upper part of the bar section 34.
- the stability of the separator 32 can be further increased by the provision of triangular reinforcements 36 at the ends, near the front and back of the tablet.
- the separator 32 thus positioned relative to the tablet, is fixed to the latter.
- the shelf is formed from a folded sheet, and since the separator 32 and its bar section 34 are formed from plastic, a magnet is advantageously molded by insert in the bar section 34 so that it has a visible surface facing one face of the groove.
- the magnet and the sheet of the shelf that is to say a ferromagnetic material, attract each other and ensure the attachment of the separator 32 on the shelf 14.
- the separator shown in Figure 2 has such a partition finger. More specifically, in the embodiment of FIG. 2, the separator 32 comprises, over most of its length, a strip 38 of a ferromagnetic material, preferably a simple strip of sheet metal incorporated during the molding of the separator 32 , and a partitioning finger 40, the plane of which is perpendicular to that of the separator, is held on this strip 38 by a magnetized part 42.
- This magnetized part 42 preferably has a dual role: the positioning of the partitioning finger 40 by introducing part 42 into a groove at the bottom of which is placed the strip 38 of the ferromagnetic material, and the attraction between the magnetized material and this strip 38 so that the partitioning finger 40 is held by the separator 32.
- each separator can occupy any location along the length of the groove 30, without having to respect any pitch.
- the partitioning finger 40 is integral with the separator 32, it too can be adjusted in any desired position.
- the partition finger 40 can be moved along the separator continuously, that is to say at any desired location, depending on the size of the products placed on the shelf.
- the adjustment of the position of the separator and that of the position of the partitioning finger can be practically carried out blind, since a person who for example wants to move the separator and / or the partitioning finger to bring products closer to the front of the shelf, can simply move the separator and the partition finger 40 by light pressure, without the need to carefully observe their position.
- FIG. 3 represents a variant giving this characteristic.
- the separator 44 comprises a slide 46 placed over most of its length and delimiting two rails on which two slides 48 can slide, carried by cheeks secured to the partition finger.
- the cheeks carrying the slides delimit between them a space in which a spiral spring 50 is housed, one end 52 of which is fixed to the front of the separator 44 and the other end is fixed between the cheeks of the slides 48.
- the finger of which has a simple positioning it is not possible to provide for the mounting of the partitioning finger on the separator 44 of FIG. 3 when the latter is in position on the tablet.
- a magnetic member is integral with the separator and is attracted by a shelf made of a ferromagnetic material.
- the tablet can be made of a non-ferromagnetic material and can include a simple strip of a ferromagnetic material, for example placed at the bottom of the groove.
- the bottom of the groove 30 can be provided with an elongated magnet placed continuously over the entire length of the tablet, while the bar section positioned in the groove is either formed of a ferromagnetic material, or comprises an element of ferromagnetic material attracted by the magnet.
- the magnet can be formed of a continuous strip, this strip can be discontinuous, insofar as the discontinuities are small compared to the cooperating element of ferromagnetic material, so that the separator can occupy any position along the groove, without respecting a particular step.
- the shelf has two grooves 54 each having a possible longitudinal rod 56 projecting inside the groove.
- the separator 58 has, for each groove, a section of bar 60 similar to the section of bar 34 and having a magnet intended to be housed in the corresponding groove 54.
- This section of bar has a groove 62 on its face facing the rod in projection 56 from the groove.
- the body of the separator 58 and the members for mounting the bar sections 60 give a certain elasticity such that the bar sections can move apart elastically to pass over the rods 56 which then become housed in the grooves 62.
- the elasticity of the separator increases the magnetic retention of the latter on the shelf by a latching phenomenon.
- the upper part of the separator 58 is crenellated and forms a kind of rack.
- a partition finger 66 is integral with a jumper 68 whose interior space is also crenellated. In this way, the partition finger, when its jumper straddles the rack 64, can be moved to any desired position along the length of the separator 58. The effect obtained is therefore the same as with the partition finger described with reference to Figure 2.
- the separators can be arranged with any spacing and their position can therefore be perfectly adapted to the size of the products.
- the partition fingers can occupy virtually any position over the entire length of the separators.
- assembly is carried out by simple positioning of the dividers on a shelf inside the cabinet. This positioning is extremely simple thanks to the guidance of the bar section in a groove.
- the separation of the separators is automatic, thanks to the magnetic attraction.
- the furniture comprising the shelves according to the invention is suitable for equipping self-service sales stores.
