Abstract

The invention relates to a push-trolley (1) which can be stacked with its kind and loaded with goods or luggage. The trolley can optionally be equipped with a coupling part (7). The pushing device (4) of the trolley is either supported by handle support brackets (6) or is an integral part of a frame structure with an upward directed member providing a certain carrying facility (9) for placing a hand scanner. It is suggested to unreleasably attach the carrying facility either to a handle support bracket (6), a coupling part (7) or a pushing device (4).

Description

TRANSPORTWAGEN MIT ANORDNUNG FÜR EINEN HANDSCANNER TRANSPORT TROLLEYS FOR A HAND SCANNER
Die Erfindung betrifft einen von Hand bewegbaren, mit gleichen Wagen stapelbaren und zur Aufnahme von Ware oder Gepäck bestimmten Transportwagen, der wahlweise mit einem Kopplungsteil ausgestattet ist und dessen Schiebeeinrichtung entweder von Griffhalteteilen gestützt oder Bestandteil einer nach oben gerichteten Rahmenkon¬ struktion ist, wobei eine zum Ablegen oder Abstellen eines Handscanners bestimmte Tragvorrichtung vorgesehen ist.The invention relates to a manually movable, stackable with the same car and intended for receiving goods or luggage, which is optionally equipped with a coupling part and whose sliding device is either supported by handle holding parts or is part of an upward-facing frame construction, one of which is used for Placing or parking a handheld scanner is provided.
Es ist bekannt, Kunden in einem SB-Geschäft Handscanner leihweise zu überlassen, so daß diese Kunden die eingekaufte Ware selbst abrechnen können. Damit der Hand¬ scanner während des Einkaufsvorganges nicht immer getragen werden muß, sind die den Kunden zur Verfügung gestellten, als Einkaufswagen gestalteten Transportwagen mit einer Tragvorrichtung ausgestattet, die zur Aufnahme des Handscanners dann ge¬ nutzt wird, wenn keine Abrechnungsvorgänge durchgeführt werden. Die wie ein oben offenes Behältnis gestaltete Tragvorrichtung ist dabei als eigenständiges Teil an der als Griffstange ausgebildeten Schiebeeinrichtung der Transportwagen befestigt. Bei Nichtgebrauch wird der Handscanner während des Einkaufsvorganges in die Tragvor¬ richtung lose eingestellt oder eingesetzt.It is known to lend hand scanners to customers in a self-service store so that these customers can settle the purchased goods themselves. So that the hand scanner does not always have to be carried during the shopping process, the transport trolleys made available to the customers and designed as shopping carts are equipped with a carrying device which is used to hold the hand scanner when no billing processes are carried out. The carrying device, which is designed like an open container, is fastened as an independent part to the pushing device of the transport trolley designed as a handle bar. When not in use, the hand scanner is loosely set or inserted into the carrying device during the shopping process.
Es ist üblich, derartige Transportwagen mit Kopplungsteilen auszustatten, um ein ord¬ nungsgemäßes Ausleihen und Zurückbringen der zur Verfügung gestellten Transport¬ wagen zu garantieren. Solche Kopplungsteile befinden sich gewöhnlich an oder im Bereich der Schiebeeinrichtung.It is customary to equip transport trolleys of this type with coupling parts in order to guarantee proper borrowing and return of the transport trolleys provided. Such coupling parts are usually located on or in the area of the sliding device.
Schließlich ist es bekannt, an der Schiebeeinrichtung Werbung in Form von Texten, Symbolen und dergleichen anzubringen, um entweder das Kaufverhalten der Kunden zu beeinflussen oder ganz einfach den Transportwagen als zu einem bestimmten Markt gehörend zu kennzeichnen.Finally, it is known to apply advertising in the form of texts, symbols and the like to the sliding device, in order either to influence the buying behavior of the customers or simply to mark the transport vehicle as belonging to a specific market.
Es hat sich als nachteilig erwiesen, die Tragvorrichtung für den Handscanner an der Schiebeeinrichtung zu befestigen, denn erstens werden dadurch die erwähnten Werbe¬ texte teilweise unleserlich gemacht und zweitens stört die Tragvorrichtung dann, wenn man von der Schiebeeinrichtungsseite aus die üblicherweise als Korb gestaltete Ein¬ richtung des Transportwagens mit Ware beladen will. Die Tragvorrichtung befindet sich dann im Bewegungsbereich der Hände einer den Transportwagen schiebenden Person. Dies ist vor allem dann hinderlich, wenn auch noch ein Kopplungsteil an oder auf der Schiebeeinrichtung befestigt ist.It has proven to be disadvantageous to attach the carrying device for the hand scanner to the sliding device, because firstly the advertising texts mentioned are thereby partially made illegible and secondly, the carrying device is annoying when one looks from the side of the sliding device which is usually designed as a basket wants to load the direction of the trolley with goods. The carrying device is then in the range of motion of the hands of a person pushing the trolley Person. This is particularly troublesome if a coupling part is also attached to or on the sliding device.
In der US-Patentschrift 4, 691, 816 wird kurz vermerkt, an einem Kopplungsteil eine Klemmvorrichtung vorzusehen, in welche ein flacher elektronischer Taschenrechner oder ein Einkaufszettel eingeklemmt werden kann. Die genannte Patentschrift vermit¬ telt weder Hinweise, ob die Klemmeinrichtung in der Lage ist, die wesentlich größer als ein Taschenrechner gestalteten Handscanner aufzunehmen, noch gibt sie Auskunft über die Art der Anordnung und Befestigung der Klemmeinrichtung am Kopplungsteil. Es wäre außerdem beim Einkaufsvorgang äußerst hinderlich, den Handscanner bei Nichtgebrauch jedesmal mit der Klemmeinrichtung am Transportwagen zu befestigen, da zu diesem Vorgang immer zwei Hände notwendig sind.US Pat. No. 4,691,816 briefly notes that a clamping device is provided on a coupling part, into which a flat electronic calculator or a shopping list can be clamped. The cited patent does not provide any information as to whether the clamping device is able to accommodate the hand scanners that are designed much larger than a pocket calculator, nor does it provide information about the type of arrangement and fastening of the clamping device on the coupling part. It would also be extremely inconvenient during the shopping process to attach the hand scanner to the transport trolley each time it is not in use, since two hands are always required for this process.
Das deutsche Gebrauchsmuster DE 295 07 722 Ul beschreibt einen Transportwagen, in dessen als Griffstange gestaltete Schiebeeinrichtung ein schalenförmiger Kleinteile- behälter eingeformt ist. Als weitere Ausgestaltung schlägt das Gebrauchsmuster vor, den Kleinteilbehälter in einem Aufsatz vorzusehen, der von der Griffstange gehalten wird, wobei im so gestalteten Aufsatz ein Kopplungsteil integriert sein kann. Das Ge¬ brauchsmuster läßt offen, ob in die beschriebenen Kleinteilebehälter ein Handscanner einsetzbar ist.The German utility model DE 295 07 722 Ul describes a transport trolley, in the sliding device of which is designed as a handle bar, a bowl-shaped small parts container is molded. As a further embodiment, the utility model proposes to provide the small parts container in an attachment which is held by the handle bar, and a coupling part can be integrated in the attachment designed in this way. The usage pattern leaves open whether a hand scanner can be inserted into the described small parts container.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, einen Transportwagen der gattungsgemäßen Art so weiterzuentwickeln, daß die eben geschilderten Nachteile vermieden werden.The object of the invention is to develop a trolley of the generic type so that the disadvantages just described are avoided.
Als eine erste Lösung der Aufgabe wird vorgeschlagen, die Tragvorrichtung entweder an einem Griffhalteteil oder an einem Kopplungsteil oder an der Schiebeeinrichtung unlösbar anzuordnen.As a first solution to the problem, it is proposed that the carrying device be arranged non-detachably either on a handle holding part or on a coupling part or on the sliding device.
Eine zweite Lösung der Aufgabe besteht darin, die Tragvorrichtung entweder mit ei¬ nem Griffhalteteil oder mit einem Kopplungsteil lösbar, insbesondere schnappschlüs¬ sig zu verbinden. Da die Tragvorrichtung platzsparender Bestandteil eines der Griffhalteteile oder des Kopplungsteiles oder der Schiebeeinrichtung ist, wird der Eindruck vermieden, es sei ein weiteres zusätzliches Teil im Bereich der Schiebeeinrichtung angeordnet. Die Tragvorrichtung läßt sich dabei so vorsehen, daß auf der Schiebeeinrichtung befindli¬ che Werbung nicht überdeckt wird. Es erweist sich als besonders zweckmäßig, die Tragvorrichtung innerhalb des Grundrisses des Transportwagens anzuordnen. Durch diese Maßnahme lassen sich durch Anfahren oder Anstoßen bedingte Beschädigungen an der Tragvorrichtung und am Handscanner vermeiden. Ist die Tragvorrichtung als glatt geformter Durchbruch oder als Vorsprung oder Haken gestaltet, kann sich an der Tragvorrichtung kein Schmutz absetzen. Dies ist ein entscheidender Vorteil dann, wenn der Transportwagen als Einkaufswagen gestaltet dem Transport von Lebensmit¬ teln dient.A second solution to the problem consists in releasably, in particular snap-fittingly, connecting the carrying device either with a handle holding part or with a coupling part. Since the carrying device is a space-saving component of one of the handle holding parts or the coupling part or the sliding device, the impression is avoided that a further additional part is arranged in the area of the sliding device. The carrying device can be provided in such a way that advertising on the sliding device is not covered. It has proven particularly expedient to arrange the carrying device within the floor plan of the trolley. This measure prevents damage to the carrying device and the hand scanner caused by starting or bumping. If the carrying device is designed as a smoothly shaped opening or as a projection or hook, no dirt can settle on the carrying device. This is a decisive advantage if the transport trolley, designed as a shopping cart, is used to transport food.

Da der Hauptanwendungsbereich der Erfindung in Selbstbedienungsgeschäften zu er¬ warten ist, ist der in Fig. 1 dargestellte Transportwagen 1 als herkömmlicher Ein¬ kaufswagen gestaltet. Der Transportwagen 1 ist von Hand bewegbar. Er läßt sich in bekannter Weise mit gleichen Transportwagen 1 platzsparend stapeln und ist so gestal¬ tet, daß sich mit ihm Ware, z.B. Einkaufsgut, oder aber, bei entsprechender Bauweise, auch teilweise Gepäck transportieren läßt. Der Transportwagen 1 ist mit einer ge¬ wöhnlich röhr- oder stabförmigen Schiebeeinrichtung 4 ausgestattet, die entweder von separaten, am Transportwagen 1 befestigten Griffhalteteilen 6 gestützt wird oder Be¬ standteil von wenigstens einer nach oben gerichteten Rahmenkonstruktion ist. Derarti¬ ge Anordnungen sind bekannt. Die Schiebeeinrichtung 4 trägt ein beispielsweise als Münzschloß ausgebildetes Kopplungsteil 7, das in bekannter Weise ein An- und Ab¬ koppeln des Transportwagens 1 an oder von gleichen Transportwagen 1 ermöglicht. Ein Kopplungsteil 7 dieser Art ist beispielsweise in der DE 39 00 582 AI näher be- schrieben. Der Transportwagen 1 weist ein mit Fahrrollen 3 ausgestattetes Fahrgestell 2 auf, wobei selbstverständlich weitere zweckmäßige Einrichtungen, beispielsweise eine Kindersitzanordnung oder eine untere Absteilfläche vorgesehen sein können. Auch ist es möglich, den Transportwagen 1 mit abnehmbaren Körben oder Behältnis¬ sen auszustatten.Since the main area of application of the invention is to be expected in self-service shops, the transport trolley 1 shown in FIG. 1 is designed as a conventional shopping trolley. The trolley 1 is movable by hand. It can be stacked in a known manner with the same transport trolley 1 in a space-saving manner and is designed in such a way that it can be used to transport goods, for example shopping goods, or, with the appropriate construction, also partially to transport luggage. The transport carriage 1 is equipped with a usually tubular or rod-shaped sliding device 4, which is either supported by separate handle holding parts 6 fastened to the transport carriage 1 or is part of at least one upward-pointing frame construction. Such arrangements are known. The sliding device 4 carries, for example, a coupling part 7 designed as a coin lock, which, in a known manner, enables the transport carriage 1 to be coupled and uncoupled to or from the same transport carriage 1. A coupling part 7 of this type is described, for example, in DE 39 00 582 A1. wrote. The transport trolley 1 has a chassis 2 equipped with castors 3, it being possible, of course, to provide further suitable devices, for example a child seat arrangement or a lower parting area. It is also possible to equip the trolley 1 with removable baskets or containers.
Fig. 2 zeigt in einer Draufsicht einen Teil einer rohrförmigen Schiebeeinrichtung 4, die ein bekanntes Kopplungsteil 7 trägt. Das Gehäuse 8 des Kopplungsteiles 7 besitzt eine Ausformung 10, die beispielhaft eine Aufnahme 10' in Form einer Vertiefung oder eines Durchbruches oder wenigstens eines Vorsprunges aufweist. Die Ausformung 10 nebst Aufnahme 10' bilden eine Tragvorrichtung 9 für ein Preiserfassungsgerät in Form eines nicht näher dargestellten Handscanners. Ist die Tragvorrichtung 9 eine Vertiefung, wird der Handscanner in die Vertiefung eingesetzt oder eingesteckt. Wählt man als Tragvorrichtung 9 einen Durchbruch, so läßt sich der Handscanner in den Durchbruch einhängen, wobei die Kontur des Handscanners so gestaltet ist, z.B. durch einen abgesetzten Rand, daß der Handscanner nicht durch den Durchbruch hindurch¬ fällt. Entscheidet man sich für eine Tragvorrichtung 9 in Form eines Vorsprunges oder Hakens, so läßt sich der Handscanner auf den Vorsprung aufstecken oder am Haken anhängen. Im Beispiel ist die Tragvorrichtung 9, als Vertiefung oder als Durchbruch gestaltet, in das Gehäuse 8 des Kopplungsteiles 7 eingeformt. Die Tragvorrichtung 9 ist somit unlösbar am Kopplungsteil 7 angeordnet. Anstelle dieser Lösung ist es auch denkbar, die Tragvorrichtung 9 als eigenständiges Teil zu gestalten, das mit dem Kopplungsteil 7 lösbar, insbesondere schnappschlüssig verbunden ist. Zu diesem Zweck sind an der Tragvorrichtung 9 und am Kopplungsteil 7 Konturen vorgesehen, die gegenseitig verrastend ineinandergreifen. Solche Konturen können in bekannter Weise durch Vertiefungen, Ansätze, Nuten, Flinterschneidungen und dergleichen ge¬ bildet sein. Die Tragvorrichtung 9 ist in einem Abstand zu dem mit einem Pfeil ge¬ kennzeichneten Schlüsseleinschub des Kopplungsteiles 7 angeordnet.2 shows a top view of part of a tubular sliding device 4 which carries a known coupling part 7. The housing 8 of the coupling part 7 has a shape 10 which has, for example, a receptacle 10 'in the form of a depression or an opening or at least one projection. The formation 10 together with the receptacle 10 'form a support device 9 for a price recording device in the form of a hand scanner, not shown in detail. If the carrying device 9 is a depression, the hand scanner is inserted or inserted into the depression. If a breakthrough is selected as the carrying device 9, the hand scanner can be hung in the breakthrough, the contour of the hand scanner being designed, e.g. by a stepped edge so that the hand scanner does not fall through the opening. If one chooses a carrying device 9 in the form of a projection or hook, the hand scanner can be attached to the projection or attached to the hook. In the example, the carrying device 9, designed as a depression or as an opening, is molded into the housing 8 of the coupling part 7. The carrying device 9 is thus arranged on the coupling part 7 so that it cannot be detached. Instead of this solution, it is also conceivable to design the carrying device 9 as an independent part which is detachably, in particular snap-connected, to the coupling part 7. For this purpose, contours are provided on the support device 9 and on the coupling part 7, which interlock with one another. Such contours can be formed in a known manner by depressions, shoulders, grooves, flinter cuts and the like. The carrying device 9 is arranged at a distance from the key insert of the coupling part 7 marked with an arrow.
Fig. 3 zeigt, daß die in Fig. 2 beschriebene Tragvorrichtung 9 für einen Handscanner auch an einem der beiden Griffhalteteile 6 vorgesehen werden kann. Die üblicherweise aus Kunststoff bestehenden Griffhalteteile 6 dienen an Transportwagen 1 dazu, die stab- oder rohrförmige Schiebeeinrichtung 4 zu halten und zu stützen. Es ist also mög- lich, an eines der beiden Griffhalteteile 6 eine Tragvorrichtung 9 in Form einer Vertie¬ fung oder eines Durchbruches oder eines Vorsprungs anzuformen, so daß die Tragvor¬ richtung 9 unlösbar am Griffhalteteil 6 angeordnet ist. Denkbar ist aber auch, und wie in Fig. 2 vorgeschlagen, die Tragvorrichtung 9 als eigenständiges Teil zu gestalten und unter Zuhilfenahme der in Fig. 2 genannten Mittel an einem Griffhalteteil 6 schnapp¬ schlüssig zu befestigen. Die genannten Mittel sind dann auch in entsprechend korre¬ spondierender Weise am Griffhalteteil 6 vorgesehen.FIG. 3 shows that the carrying device 9 described in FIG. 2 for a hand scanner can also be provided on one of the two handle holding parts 6. The handle holding parts 6, which are usually made of plastic, are used on transport trolleys 1 to hold and support the rod-shaped or tubular sliding device 4. So it’s possible Lich, to form a support device 9 in the form of a recess or an opening or a projection on one of the two handle holding parts 6, so that the support device 9 is non-detachably arranged on the handle holding part 6. However, it is also conceivable, and as suggested in FIG. 2, to design the carrying device 9 as an independent part and to snap it to a handle holding part 6 with the aid of the means mentioned in FIG. 2. The means mentioned are then also provided in a correspondingly corresponding manner on the handle holding part 6.
Eine weitere Möglichkeit, eine Tragvorrichtung 9 für einen Handscanner an einem Transportwagen 1 anzubringen, zeigt Fig. 4. Bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel ist die Schiebeeinrichtung 4 ein aus Kunststoff bestehendes stabförmiges Spritzgußteil, an das eine als Durchbruch (wie gezeichnet) oder als Vorsprung oder als Haken gestaltete Tragvorrichtung 9 als unlösbarer Bestandteil der Schiebeeinrichtung 4 eingeformt ist. Da eine Tragvorrichtung 9 in Form eines Durchbruches eine Schwächung des Quer¬ schnittes der stabförmigen Schiebeeinrichtung, bedeuten würde, befindet sich der Durchbruch, wie gezeichnet, bevorzugt außerhalb dieses Querschnittes. Eine derart gestaltete Schiebeeinrichtung 4 kann auch noch eine Kopplungseinrichtung beherber¬ gen, so wie dies in der DE 37 14 115 C2 vorgeschlagen wird. Die Schiebeeinrichtung 4 kann auch aus zwei getrennt angeordneten Schiebegriffen bestehen, wobei an einem der beiden Schiebegriffe die Tragvorrichtung 9 angeformt ist.Fig. 4 shows a further possibility of attaching a carrying device 9 for a hand scanner to a transport carriage 1. In this exemplary embodiment, the sliding device 4 is a rod-shaped injection-molded part made of plastic, to which one is provided as an opening (as shown) or as a projection or as a hook designed carrying device 9 is molded as an inseparable part of the sliding device 4. Since a support device 9 in the form of an opening would weaken the cross section of the rod-shaped sliding device, the opening, as shown, is preferably outside this cross section. Such a sliding device 4 can also accommodate a coupling device, as is proposed in DE 37 14 115 C2. The sliding device 4 can also consist of two separately arranged push handles, with the carrying device 9 being molded onto one of the two push handles.
Es ist äußerst zweckmäßig, und wie aus Fig. 5 ersichtlich, die in den Figuren 2 bis 4 beschriebene Tragvorrichtung 9 für einen Handscanner innerhalb des Grundrisses des Transportwagens 1 anzuordnen. In der Zeichnung ist die in Fig. 2 vorgestellte Lösung dargestellt, wobei die mit 11 gekennzeichneten Linien den Grundriß des Transportwa- gens 1 wiedergeben. Im Beispiel befindet sich die Tragvorrichtung 9 zwischen der Schiebeeinrichtung 4 und jener Einrichtung, beispielsweise einem Korb 5, der zur Aufnahme der Ware bestimmt ist. Da mit Transportwagen 1 dieser Art allzu oft an Hindernisse angestoßen wird, ist durch die vorgeschlagene Lösung eine Beschädigung der Tragvorrichtung 9 ausgeschlossen.It is extremely expedient, and as can be seen from FIG. 5, to arrange the carrying device 9 described in FIGS. 2 to 4 for a hand scanner within the floor plan of the transport carriage 1. The solution presented in FIG. 2 is shown in the drawing, the lines marked with 11 representing the outline of the transport carriage 1. In the example, the carrying device 9 is located between the sliding device 4 and that device, for example a basket 5, which is intended for receiving the goods. Since transport trolleys 1 of this type encounter obstacles too often, the proposed solution prevents damage to the carrying device 9.
Die Erfindung schließt auch als Gepäcktransportwagen gestaltete Transportwagen 1 ein, da mit solchen Wagen auch in Läden eingekauft werden kann, die sich beispiels- weise auf Flughäfen befinden. Transportwagen 1 dieser Art besitzen meist ein kleines korbartiges Behältnis 5, in welchem Einkaufsgut abgestellt werden kann. The invention also includes transport trolleys 1 designed as luggage transport trolleys, since such trolleys can also be used to shop in stores which, for example, wise at airports. Trolleys 1 of this type usually have a small basket-like container 5, in which goods can be parked.
