Examples of the sliding material include a normal steel plate coated with a coating material having a friction reducing effect, a low friction material such as a fluorine resin, or a material having a reduced contact area such as an embossed surface.

In addition to the above, for example, a small wheel is attached to the side surface of the bottom plate 2 2 of the product advancement body 2 as a form of attaching a sliding member such as a roller to the back surface of the bottom plate 2 2 of the product advancement body 2. It may be a thing. Further, the height dimension of the front member 42 standing from the front end of the first bottom plate 41 of the moving frame body 4 is not limited to that shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. It may be a so-called rib-like member extending in the left and right directions with small dimensions. Even if the height of the front member is low, it is possible to restrict the forward movement of the product, and even if the restriction on the forward movement is weak, further display products are placed in front of the front member 42. Therefore, it can prevent falling forward. The first bottom plate 41 of the moving frame 4 has a long hole 4 3 (guide hole) whose center in the left-right direction is cut out to a predetermined width and length from the front end. The first bottom plate 41 has an opening 33 through which the strip steel plate 3 passes, and a front member 42 bent upward at the front end. On the upper surfaces of both sides of the elongated hole 43 of the first bottom plate 41, rib members 46 extend in the front-rear direction at a predetermined pitch in the left-right direction. The front member 42 partitions the front of the rear product A placed in the movable frame 4 and prevents the product A from falling forward. The roller 29 of the first sliding means may be a rail-shaped protrusion, and the roller 23 of the second sliding means can be omitted.

The product advancement body 2 has a width dimension standing from the front end of the rectangular second bottom plate 2 2 and the second bottom plate 2 2 having the same width as that of the first bottom plate 41 of the movable frame 4. The product has a rectangular product pressing plate 21 whose method is the same as the width of the first bottom plate 41, and has a substantially L-shaped side view. In the center of the bottom surface of the second bottom plate 2 2, there is a guide hole 4 There is a protrusion 25 that fits loosely in 3 and guides forward movement. Also, the front end of the strip steel plate 3 (connecting member) is fixed to the front side of the product display surface 7, and the rear end of the strip steel plate 3 is wound and stored on the back surface of the product press plate 21. It is connected to the home storage section 36, and in the installed state, the product advancement body 2 is always pulled forward (the moving frame body on the left side of FIG. 2). The form of the product advancement body 2 is not limited to this. For example, the second bottom plate 22 may have a substantially L-shape extending forward from the lower end of the product pressing plate 21. The location where the connecting member is connected is not particularly limited as long as one end is the front side of the commodity display shelf and the other is the commodity advancement body 2. Further, the connecting member is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include rubber other than the strip steel plate.

As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the display shelf 9 forming the product display surface 7 is a product display surface composed of a repetition of three tall high ribs 7 1 and two short low ribs 7 2. 7 and a front member 77 having a lateral engagement groove 8 with which the product fall prevention plate is engaged. This product display surface 7 has high ribs 71 (sliding means) and guides forward movement of the movable frame 4 as described later in cooperation with the high ribs 71 and the low ribs 72. Parts. The upper end of the high rib 71 is sharpened to make it easy to slip. Further, the high rib 71 is formed with a vertical engagement groove 76 to which the product partition plate 5 is engaged at every predetermined pitch.

As shown in FIG. 2, the display shelf 9 may be installed on an existing product display shelf 50, or may constitute a new display shelf. Also, the shape of the product display surface 7 can be, for example, a repetition of a single height lip in addition to the above-mentioned three high ribs 7 1 and two low lip 7 2 repetitions. A structure may be adopted in which a roller rides between one rib and another rib adjacent to the one rib. The product advancement body 2 is provided with a roller 2 3 as a second sliding means on the back surface of the second bottom plate 2 2 together with the advancement function of the connecting member, and the rib member 4 of the first bottom plate 4 1 of the moving frame 4 6 Since it is placed on top, it is always in the forward movement state in the installed state, and the rear product A placed in front of the product pressing plate 21 and between the front members 42 of the moving frame 4 is moved forward. It is put out. Further, in this state, the front member 42 of the moving frame 4 puts the front-side product B located in front of the front member 42 in a forward-out state. A product fall prevention plate 6 is installed in front of the product display surface 7 on which the movable frame 4 is installed to prevent the products in the front row from falling from the shelf.

The product automatic advance shelf device 10 configured in this way has an acting force to automatically deliver the displayed product forward while maintaining the straightness automatically even when the product is arranged in a large amount in the front-rear direction. Yes, it is easy for customers to take out the products in front. In particular, when the rear product A in the moving frame 4 and in front of the product advancer 2 is densely placed and the product in the front row is taken out, a so-called trolley-like movement The rear product A in the frame 4 does not move in the moving frame and the front product B is pushed by the entire moving frame including the rear product A, so the front display product B moves forward. It is easy and the urging force of the strip steel plate 3 may be weak. For this reason, when the worker replenishes the goods, it is only necessary to lightly push the moving frame 4 backward, so that the work labor can be reduced. When all of the front side products B are taken out, the rear side product A in the moving frame 4 is then taken out, and the product advancement body 2 moves the products in the movement frame 4 forward. In this case, since the product is on the rib member 46, it is easy to move.

A method for assembling the above-described component members to form the advance shelf device 10 is not particularly limited. For example, the product advancement body 2 is assembled in advance to the moving frame 4, and then the product display surface 7 is placed. A moving frame 4 incorporating the product advancement body 2 is installed in In this case, roller 2 9 is on low rib 7 2 In addition, the connecting member 3 should be on another low rib 7 2 between the low ribs 7 2 and 7 2 on which the rollers 29 are placed (see FIG. 6). That is, the guide portion in this example is a pair of high ribs 71 and a low rib 72 located between the high ribs 71, and the high ribs 72 are adjacent to both sides of the roller 4. For this reason, movement in the left-right direction is prevented to ensure straightness of the product advancement body 2. Then, the base end portion 32 of the connecting member 3 is engaged with, for example, an engaging groove on the front side of the product display surface (display shelf) 7. As a result, the product advancement body 2 is guided by the guide part 70 composed of the ribs 71 and the low ribs 72 and always moves forward in the installed state.

A product fall prevention plate 6 is installed at the front end of the product display surface 7, and a pair of left and right product partition plates 5 and 5 are fitted into the fitting grooves 7 6 according to the width dimension of the product to be displayed. The installation method of the product partition plates 5 and 5 is not limited to this method, and may be a form that fits into a fitting hole formed at an arbitrary position, for example. A moving frame 4 incorporating such a product partition plate and a product advancement body is set as one set, and an appropriate number of sets are assembled on the product display surface 7. At this time, the product partition plate 5 may be used as a common object that defines the right side of one of the product advancement bodies and the left side of the product advancement body adjacent to the right side of the product advancement body.

Next, the product is arranged on the built-in product advance shelf device 10 (the left moving frame 4 in FIG. 2). This operation is performed by first putting a displayed product between the front member 4 2 of the moving frame 4 and the product pressing plate 21. The first product is placed in front of the product pressing plate 22 and on the upper surface of the first bottom plate 41 of the movable frame 4. In this case, the product advancement body 2 is driven back, but the moving frame body 4 does not move. When the inside of the moving frame 4 is full, this time, the display product is put into the front side of the front member 4 2 of the moving frame 4, and the moving frame 4 is subjected to the forward biasing force of the connecting member 3 accordingly. Against the back, No. 1 When the rear end of the bottom plate 2 2 comes into contact with the rear end stopper (not shown) of the display shelf, the product replenishment operation is completed.

The automatic product advancement tool 10 configured in this way has the ability to automatically and reliably send displayed products forward even when the products are arranged in large quantities in the front-rear direction. It is easy to take out the product in. In particular, when the rear product B in the moving frame 4 and in front of the product advancer 2 is densely placed, and the product in the front row is taken out, a so-called trolley-shaped mobile frame The rear product B in 4 does not move within the moving frame, and the front product A is pushed by the entire moving frame including the rear product B. Therefore, the display product A is easy to move forward, and the steel strip 3 The urging force of may be weak. For this reason, when the operator replenishes the product, the moving frame 7 should be pushed lightly backward, so that the work effort can be reduced. When the entire front side product A is taken out, the rear side product B in the moving frame 7 is then taken out, and the product advancement body 2 advances the product in the moving frame. In this case, since the product is on the rib member 76, it is easier to move. The upper end of the high rib 71 is not limited to a sharp cross-sectional shape, and may be a flat cross-sectional shape or a semicircular cross-sectional shape, for example. In addition, since the display surface is provided with a large number of vertical engagement grooves that engage with the product dividers in the horizontal direction, when the products are arranged side by side and in a vertical direction for each product with different width dimensions, the pitch matches the product width. This makes it possible to make a suitable advance for each column product.
