Abstract

A sales presentation of plastic bottles rests on a shelf surface which is inclined towards the customer. The plastic bottle bases have low contact with the shelf surface and a relatively high center of gravity. When the foremost bottle is removed, the remaining queue of bottles slides forward, filling the resulting gap. The two rearmost bottles stand on a sledge (L) base, whose lower surface either has a low coefficient of friction, or rollers. The sledge leading edge has an upright frame (B) for the inclined bottles. The sledge and load exerts a force from the rear on the queue of bottles at the front, maintaining the front bottles in an upright position.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Zubehör für eine Warenreihe in einer Rutschauslage.The invention relates to an accessory for a range of products in a sliding display.

Aus der DE 299 00 372.8 U ist ein Kühlregal mit einer Rutschauslage bekannt. Solche Verkaufsmöbel finden vor allem zum Präsentieren von Getränken in Form von Dosen oder Flaschen Verwendung. Die Auslagen, genauer gesagt die Böden der Auslagen, sind dabei leicht schräg angeordnet, und weisen normalerweise Fachteiler auf, die eine Art Kanäle für die Warenreihen bilden. Die Waren rutschen von hinten nach vorne nach, wenn der Kunde die vorderste Ware herausnimmt. Diese Präsentationsmöbel bieten also automatisch die Ware immer vorne - direkt vor dem Kunden - an, auch wenn schon ein großer Teil der Waren entnommen wurde. Der Kunde muß nicht nach hinten ins Regal langen, sondern kann die Waren vorne ergreifen.From DE 299 00 372.8 U a cooling shelf with a slide display is known. Such Sales furniture is mainly used to present drinks in the form of cans or bottles use. The displays, more precisely the floors of the displays, are arranged slightly obliquely, and usually have compartment dividers, the one Form kind of channels for the product series. The goods slide from the back to the front when the customer removes the foremost goods. This presentation furniture automatically offer the goods always in front - directly in front of the customer, too when a large part of the goods have already been removed. The customer doesn't have to reach the back of the shelf, but can grab the goods in front.

Ein Problem bei diesen Rutschauslagen ist, insbesondere bei der Verwendung relativ neuer PET-Flaschen, daß diese durch ihre schlanke Bauform relativ kopflastig sind und leicht umkippen können. Die Kippneigung wird dadurch verstärkt, daß diese Flaschen einen Fünfnoppenboden haben, der relativ weit nach innen gezogen ist, so daß die Aufstandsfläche relativ klein ist. Die ist insbesondere der Fall bei neuen 0,5 Liter-Limonadeflaschen. Das seitliche Umkippen kann relativ einfach durch etwas höhere seitliche Fachteiler verhindert werden, die zum Beispiel 90 mm hoch sind. Gegen das Umfallen nach vorne sind solche Einbauten allerdings nicht geeignet, da sie ja das Nachrutschen verhindern würden. Sie verhindern also nicht das Umfallen nach vorne.A problem with these slide displays is relative, especially when used new PET bottles that they are relatively top-heavy due to their slim design and can easily tip over. The tendency to tip is increased by the fact that these bottles have a five-knobbed floor that is pulled relatively far inwards so that the Footprint is relatively small. This is particularly the case with new 0.5 liter lemonade bottles. Lateral tipping can be done relatively easily by slightly higher lateral compartment dividers are prevented, which are 90 mm high, for example. Against that Such installations are not suitable for falling over towards the front, since they are Would prevent slipping. So they don't prevent you from falling forward.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher, ein Zubehör für Warenreihen in Rutschauslagen vorzuschlagen, welche ein Umkippen der Waren nach vorne zuverlässig verhindert.The object of the invention is therefore to provide an accessory for product lines in slide displays to propose which reliably prevents the goods from tipping over to the front.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß gelöst von einem Schlitten oder von einem Laufwagen, welcher eine Schubkraft auf die davor stehenden Waren oder die davor stehende Warenreihe erzeugt. Beim Auflegen des erfindungsgemäßen Zubehörs hinter die entsprechende Warenreihe wird so eine Schubkraft von hinten erzeugt, welche verhindert, daß die Flaschen umkippen. According to the invention, this object is achieved by a carriage or by a Carriage, which has a pushing force on the goods in front or on the ones in front standing series of goods generated. When placing the accessories according to the invention behind the corresponding series of goods is generated a pushing force from behind, which prevents the bottles from tipping over.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführung ist das Zubehör so aufgebaut, daß es eine, zwei oder mehrere der zu verkaufenden Waren aufnehmen kann. Auf diese Weise kann der Schlitten oder Laufwagen sehr leicht und billig aufgebaut sein, da das für die Erzeugung der Schubkraft nötige Gewicht von den aufgenommenen Waren selbst erzeugt wird.In a preferred embodiment, the accessories are constructed so that they are one, two or can hold more of the goods to be sold. In this way, the Sledges or carriages can be built very easily and cheaply, because that for the Generation of the pushing force necessary weight of the picked goods themselves is produced.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform stehen die aufzunehmenden Waren hintereinander, das heißt in Rutschrichtung auf dem Zubehör. Durch die Aufnahme von zwei oder mehr Waren hintereinander rutscht der Schwerpunkt des beladenen Zubehörs relativ weit nach hinten, wodurch ein Umkippen des Zubehörs selbst verhindert wird. Die Ware, an die das Zubehör von hinten anstößt, wird so gleichmäßig nach vorne gedrückt und schiebt die Reihe ausreichend kräftig nach vorne, so daß ein Umfallen der vordersten Ware verhindert wird.In a preferred embodiment, the goods to be picked up one after the other, i.e. in the direction of sliding on the accessories. By including two or more goods in a row the center of gravity of the loaded one slips Accessories relatively far back, causing the accessories themselves to tip over is prevented. The goods against which the accessories come into contact from behind become even pushed forward and pushes the row forward sufficiently vigorously so that a Falling over the foremost goods is prevented.

In einer weiteren Ausführung ist das Zubehör so ausgebildet, daß seine Unterfläche einen geringeren Reibungskoeffizienten hat als die Unterflächen der Waren oder daß das Zubehör mit Rädern oder Rollen versehen ist, so daß eine besonders geringe Reibung des beladenen Zubehörs vorliegt. Gerade bei der Verwendung von Rädern oder Rollen ist die Reibung ja extrem vermindert, wodurch die Schubkraft auf die davor stehende Waren wesentlich erhöht wird.In a further embodiment, the accessories are designed so that their lower surface has a lower coefficient of friction than the lower surfaces of the goods or that the accessories are provided with wheels or castors, so that a particularly low There is friction of the loaded accessories. Especially when using wheels or rolling, the friction is extremely reduced, which means that the thrust on the front standing goods is increased significantly.

In einer Ausführung ist das Zubehör durch einen Rahmen mit einer flachen Aufstandsfläche für die Aufnahme der Waren und durch einen frontseitigen hochgezogenen Bügel zum Abstützen der vorderen aufgenommenen Ware gekennzeichnet. Bei dieser Ausführung stehen die Waren nur einen geringen Betrag höher, zum Beispiel 3 -4 mm, was dem Kunden kaum auffällt. Die auf dem Zubehör stehenden Waren integrieren sich so in die Warenreihe vor dem Zubehör.In one version, the accessories are by a frame with a flat Footprint for receiving the goods and through a front hoisted bracket to support the front picked up goods characterized. In this version, the goods are only a small amount higher, for example 3 -4 mm, which the customer hardly notices. The one on the accessories standing goods are thus integrated into the product range in front of the accessories.

Weitere Vorteile, Merkmale und Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der Beschreibung eines Ausführungsbeispiels anhand zweier Zeichnungen. Es zeigen:

Fig. 2
zwei Ansichten des erfindungsgemäßen Zubehörs in einer Rutschauslage.
Further advantages, features and refinements of the invention result from the description of an exemplary embodiment with reference to two drawings. Show it:
Fig. 1
an embodiment of an accessory according to the invention; and
Fig. 2
two views of the accessories according to the invention in a slide display.

Figur 1 zeigt oben den Laufwagen L in Seitenansicht, im wesentlichen bestehend aus einem flachen Rahmen mit einer niedrigen Aufstandsfläche F, einem frontseitig aufragenden Bügel 8 und hier zwei Rollen. Eine Rolle ist vorne angeordnet die andere hinten. Der Laufwagen L eignet sich hier dafür, zwei 0,5 Liter PET-Flaschen aufzunehmen. Seine Breite beträgt in dieser Ausführung ca. 68 mm, seine Länge 154 mm, sein Bügel ist 96 mm hoch.Figure 1 shows the top of the carriage L in side view, consisting essentially of a flat frame with a low contact area F, one on the front tower 8 and here two roles. One roll is placed in front of the other behind. The L carriage is suitable for this, two 0.5 liter PET bottles to record. In this version, its width is approx. 68 mm and its length 154 mm, its temple is 96 mm high.

Figur 1 zeigt unten eine Frontansicht des erfindungsgemäßen Laufwagens L mit dem Bügel B, der Aufstandsfläche F und einer Rolle, die beidseitig vom eigentlichen Rahmen des Laufwagens L gehalten wird.Figure 1 shows a front view of the carriage L according to the invention with the Bracket B, the footprint F and a role on both sides of the actual Frame of the carriage L is held.

Figur 2 zeigt oben einen erfindungsgemäßen Laufwagen L in der Rutschauslage R. Die Rutschauslage R ist hier mit den Waren W belegt. In diesem Ausführungsbeispiel sind es acht Limonadeflaschen, von denen die beiden hintersten auf dem Laufwagen L stehen. Da der Laufwagen L relativ flach gebaut ist, ragen diese Flaschen nur wenige Millimeter über die davor stehenden Flaschen heraus. Der Laufwagen L verhindert zuverlässig ein Umkippen der Warenreihe, wenn ein Kunde die vorderste Ware (Flasche) herauszieht. Die vom Laufwagen L erzeugte Schubkraft schiebt dann die restlichen Flaschen nach vorne, ohne daß diese umkippen.Figure 2 shows above a carriage L according to the invention in the slide delivery R. Die Sliding display R is covered with goods W. In this embodiment there are eight lemonade bottles, of which the two rearmost on the carriage L stand. Since the carriage L is relatively flat, these bottles protrude only a few Millimeters out of the bottles in front of it. The carriage L prevents reliably tipping over the product line if a customer is the foremost product (Bottle) pulls out. The thrust generated by the carriage L then pushes the remaining bottles to the front without tipping over.

Figur 2 zeigt unten einen Blick aus der Richtung A, nämlich von hinten auf vier Warenreihen, wobei jede der Warenreihen auf der Rutschauslage R mit jeweils einem Laufwagen hinten versehen ist. Zu erkennen sind in Figur 2 auch die seitlichen Fachteiler, die ein Verkippen der Waren zur Seite verhindern.Figure 2 shows a view from the direction A below, namely from behind to four Rows of goods, each of the rows of goods on the slide display R with one each Carriage is provided at the rear. The lateral ones can also be seen in FIG Compartment dividers that prevent the goods from tipping to the side.
