Abstract

A device enabling a user to reach articles placed on shelves that are either too high or too low in a movable shelving assembly. The device consists of a reducing motor (1) operated by two optical sensors (4, 5) and provided with a cogged belt (6) connected to a roller (2a) which drives a web (3) supported by a series of heavy-duty rollers (8). The device is operated when the user removes the last article from the shelf that is obstructing said sensors (4, 5), which sensors then send an electrical pulse to the motor (1) so that it moves the web forward, and so on and so forth. Said device is particularly suitable for businesses where articles are stored on shelves.

Description

ETAGEREMOBILE MOBILE SHELF
La présente invention concerne un dispositif d'étagères mobiles pour permettre à toutes personnes de différentes tailles d'avoir accès à tous produits sur des étagères placées trop haut ou trop bas dans tous types d'entreprises nécessitant le rangement d'articles sur des étagères .The present invention relates to a mobile shelf device to allow all people of different sizes to have access to all products on shelves placed too high or too low in all types of businesses requiring the storage of articles on shelves.
En effet ce type d'entreprises ceci pour un gain de place, font monter les étagères trop en hauteur ce qui ne permet pas à toutes les personnes d'atteindre les produits de celles-ci sauf si l'étagère est pleine donc les personnes de petites tailles peuvent seulement avoir accès aux articles du 1er ou 2nd rang donc rentabilité amoindrie pour l'entreprise il en est de même pour les étagères du bas,quand celles-ci sont à moitié vide l'accès des articles est très difficile car souvent ils sont trop au fond .Indeed this type of companies this to save space, raise the shelves too high which does not allow all people to reach the products of them unless the shelf is full so people small sizes can only have access to articles from the 1st or 2nd row therefore reduced profitability for the company it is the same for the lower shelves, when these are half empty the access of the articles is very difficult because often they are too deep.
Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remédier à cet inconvénient . Il comporte selon ses caractéristiques un tapis roulant entraîné par un moteur moto-réducteur,celui-ci sera déclenché par 2 capteurs optiques de chaque coté de l'étagère mobile . Ces capteurs optiques donneront le signal électrique au moteur moto-réducteur lorsque l'utilisateur aura enlevé le dernier article obstruant les capteurs optiques,ainsi le tapis entrera en fonction et fera avancé une pleine rangée d'articles et ainsi de suite .The device according to the invention overcomes this drawback. According to its characteristics, it includes a conveyor belt driven by a gear motor, which will be triggered by 2 optical sensors on each side of the mobile shelf. These optical sensors will give the electrical signal to the gear motor when the user has removed the last item obstructing the optical sensors, so the mat will come into operation and advance a full row of items and so on.
Selon des modes particuliers de réalisation .According to particular embodiments.
- Les tapis employés pourront être de différentes longueurs et matières .- The carpets used may be of different lengths and materials.
- L'alimentation se fera en 110,220 volt ou 380 volt selon les moteurs .- The power supply will be 110,220 volts or 380 volts depending on the engines.
- Les capteurs optiques ou déclencheurs électroniques seront installés à la place la plus appropriée selon l'emplacement et la taille de l'étagère mobile.- The optical sensors or electronic triggers will be installed in the most appropriate place depending on the location and size of the mobile shelf.
- Les rouleaux ou sol de glissement seront maintenus par des équerres latérales en acier .- The rollers or sliding floor will be maintained by lateral steel brackets.
- L'étagère mobile peut comporter une butée sur la face avant(9) pour éviter la retombée des produits au sol .- The mobile shelf may include a stop on the front face (9) to avoid the fall of products on the ground.
- L'étagère mobile peut être adaptée à toutes les dimensions des étagères actuelles et a venir .- The mobile shelf can be adapted to all dimensions of current and future shelves.
Le dessin annexé illustre l'invention . La figure 1 représente de profile dispositif selon l'inventionThe accompanying drawing illustrates the invention. Figure 1 shows a profile device according to the invention
En référence à ce dessin,le dispositif comporte un moteur moto-réducteur(1)actionné par 2 capteurs optiques(4/5),ce moteur(l) comporte une courroie dentée(6) qui est reliée au rouleau(2a),celui-ci entraîne un tapis(3)qui est soutenu par une série de rouleaux(8)pouvant supporter de lourdes charges,le dispositif fonctionnera quand l'utilisateur aura enlevé le dernier article de l'étagère qui obstrue les capteurs (4/5)ainsi ceux-ci donneront l'impulsion électrique au moteur (1) qui fera avancé le tapis .With reference to this drawing, the device comprises a gear motor (1) actuated by 2 optical sensors (4/5), this motor (l) comprises a toothed belt (6) which is connected to the roller (2a), that -this drives a mat (3) which is supported by a series of rollers (8) which can support heavy loads, the device will work when the user has removed the last article from the shelf which obstructs the sensors (4/5) thus these will give the electric impulse to the motor (1) which will advance the carpet.
Le dispositif selon l'invention est destiné à toute entreprise ayant besoin de stocker les produits sur étagères . The device according to the invention is intended for any business needing to store products on shelves.
