Description

Verkaufsvorrichtung für gefalzte Druckprodukte Sales device for folded printed products

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Verkaufsvorrichtung für gefalzte Druckprodukte, wie Zeitungen, Zeitschriften u.dgl., mit einem kastenförmigen Gehäuse, in dem eine Aufnahme für einen stehenden Stapel von einzeln abzugebenden Druckprodukten vorgesehen ist, wobei das Gehäuse einen Entnahmeschlitz und eine Vereinzelungseinrichtung aufweist, die nach Aufheben einer durch Bezahlung deaktivierbaren Sperre betätigbar ist und das vorderste Druckprodukt des Stapels in den Bereich des Entnahmeschlitzes des Gehäuses schiebt.The invention relates to a sales device for folded printed products, such as newspapers, magazines and the like, with a box-shaped housing, in which a receptacle for a standing stack of individually dispensed printed products is provided, the housing having a removal slot and a separating device, which after Removing a lock that can be deactivated by payment can be actuated and pushes the foremost printed product of the stack into the region of the removal slot of the housing.

Verkaufsvorrichtungen dieser Art sind in den verschiedensten Ausführungen bekannt, aber zumeist mit dem Nachteil behaftet, daß ihre Konstruktion aufwendig, ihre Bedienung umständ- lieh und die Vereinzelung der Druckprodukte unbefriedigend ist. So hat sich bei bekannten Geräten in der Praxis gezeigt, daß Zeitungen wegen ihrer filigranen Natur beim Hochschieben eines Mitnehmers mit Hilfe eines Schiebers nicht immer einwandfrei mitgenommen werden, was zu Verstopfungen im Gerät, zu Staus im Entnahmeschlitz und letztlich zu einem Unbrauchbarwerden des Gerätes führen kann.Various types of sales devices of this type are known, but mostly have the disadvantage that their construction is complex, their operation is difficult and the separation of the printed products is unsatisfactory. It has been shown in known devices in practice that newspapers, because of their filigree nature, are not always perfectly taken along when a driver is pushed up with the aid of a slide, which can lead to blockages in the device, to traffic jams in the removal slot and ultimately to the device becoming unusable ,

Die Erfindung zielt darauf ab, diesen Nachteil zu vermeiden und eine Vorrichtung der einleitend angegebenen Art so auszubilden, daß die Druckprodukte beim Betätigen der Vorrichtung einwandfrei mitgenommen und in den Entnahmeschlitz befördert werden. Dies wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch erreicht, daß der Entnahmeschlitz in einer Bodenwand des Gehäuses im Bereich dessen Vorderwand vorgesehen ist und die Vereinzelungseinrichtung einen im Bereich der Vorderwand des Gehäuses drehbar angeordneten Mitnehmer aufweist, der mittels eines Motors aus einer Ruhestellung in eine Mitnahmestellung schwenkbar ist, wobei er in die mit horizontalem Falz im Stapel angeordnete Zeitung ein- greift und diese am Falz mitnimmt.The invention aims to avoid this disadvantage and to design a device of the type stated in the introduction in such a way that the printed products are carried along perfectly when the device is actuated and conveyed into the removal slot. This is achieved according to the invention in that the removal slot is provided in a bottom wall of the housing in the region of the front wall thereof and the separating device has a driver which is arranged rotatably in the region of the front wall of the housing and which can be pivoted from a rest position into a driving position by means of a motor, wherein it engages in the newspaper arranged in the stack with a horizontal fold and takes it along with the fold.

Vorzugsweise hat der Mitnehmer im wesentlichen die Form eines Hakens .The driver preferably has essentially the shape of a hook.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Ausbildung werden alle mit der durch die Förderung der Zeitung entgegen der Schwerkraft ver- bundenen Probleme vermieden und es wird auch ein einwandfreier itterungsschutz der Zeitungen erreicht.With the design according to the invention, all the problems associated with conveying the newspaper against gravity are avoided and the newspapers are also properly protected against ittering.

Weitere Merkmale der Erfindung werden nachfolgend an einem Ausführungsbeispiel unter Bezugnahme auf die Zeichnungen näher erläutert. Die Fig. la, 1b und lc zeigen eine schematische Per- spektivansicht einer Verkaufsvorrichtung gemäß der Erfindung in verschiedenen Betriebsstellungen des Mitnehmers, die Fig. 2a und 2b zeigt Details des Mitnehmers in der Ausgangsstellung und nach erfolgter Vereinzelung, und die Fig. 3a und 3b die Zeitungsstapelaufnahme in vollem und leerem Zustand. Die dargestellte Verkaufsvorrichtung weist ein im wesentlichen kastenförmiges Gehäuse 1 mit einem Sichtfenster F und einer Vorderwand 1A, einer Rückwand 1B, einer Bodenwand IC, zwei Seitenwänden ID und einer Deckwand 1E auf. Das Gehäuse 1 ist freistehend oder an einem Träger montierbar. Die Gehäuse- vorderwand 1A ist um an den Gehäuseseiten vorgesehene Schwenkachsen 2 nach vorne klappbar, um das Gehäuse 1 öffnen und mit Druckprodukten beladen zu können. Im Gehäuseinneren ist eine in den Fig. 3a, 3b gezeigte, sich vom Bereich der Hinterwand zum Bereich der Vorderwand erstreckende Stützplatte 6B für einen Stapel von zu vereinzelnden Zeitungen D u.dgl. vorgesehen. Die Zeitungen ruhen mit ihrer Breitseite, also mit horizontalem Falz, auf der Stützplatte bzw. dem von dieser und von Gehäuseinnenwänden 6A, 6C gebildeten Schacht 6 (Fig. 3a, 3b) und werden mittels einer Andrückeinrichtung, die eine an der Stapelhinterseite angreifende Druckplatte 7 und eine diese beaufschlagende Blattfeder 8 auf- weist, gegen die Gehäusevorderwand 1A gedrückt.Further features of the invention are explained in more detail below using an exemplary embodiment with reference to the drawings. 1a, 1b and 1c show a schematic perspective view of a sales device according to the invention in different operating positions of the driver, FIGS. 2a and 2b show details of the driver in the starting position and after separation, and FIGS. 3a and 3b the stack of newspapers in full and empty condition. The vending device shown has a substantially box-shaped housing 1 with a viewing window F and a front wall 1A, a rear wall 1B, a bottom wall IC, two side walls ID and a top wall 1E. The housing 1 is free-standing or can be mounted on a carrier. The housing front wall 1A can be folded forward about pivot axes 2 provided on the housing sides in order to be able to open the housing 1 and load it with printed products. 3a, 3b, which extends from the region of the rear wall to the region of the front wall, for a stack of newspapers D and the like to be separated. intended. The broadside of the newspapers, that is to say with a horizontal fold, rests on the support plate or on the shaft 6 formed by the latter and by housing inner walls 6A, 6C (FIGS. 3a, 3b) and is pressed by means of a pressing device which engages a pressure plate 7 engaging on the rear side of the stack and a leaf spring 8 which acts on it, pressed against the housing front wall 1A.

Durch Aufheben einer nicht näher gezeigten Sperre, z.B. auf elektronischem Wege durch Einschieben einer Wertekarte in einen Gehäuseschlitz S, wird ein im wesentlichen hakenförmiger Mitnehmer 3 mittels eines Motors 4 betätigt, der aus der in Fig. 1 gezeigten Stellung in einen horizontalen Schlitz des Gehäuses 1 verschwenkbar und in die vorderste Zeitung D des Stapels hineinschwenkbar ist, derart, daß er am horizontalen Falz der Zeitung angreift und diese in die Stellung Dl gemäß Fig. 2, d.h. in eine Ausnehmung der Gehäusevorderwand 1A schiebt. Der Käufer kann nun die Zeitung D2 am Falz ergreifen und aus dem Gerät ziehen, wie dies Fig. 3 zeigt. Der Mitnehmer 3 kehrt dann sofort wieder in seine Ausgangslage zurück und steht für eine weitere Vereinzelung bereit. Der Arbeitsbereich des Mitnehmers 3 ist derart abgedeckt, daß für den Käufer keine Verletzungsge- fahr besteht.By lifting a lock, not shown, e.g. electronically by inserting a value card into a housing slot S, a substantially hook-shaped driver 3 is actuated by means of a motor 4, which can be pivoted from the position shown in FIG. 1 into a horizontal slot in the housing 1 and into the foremost newspaper D of the stack is pivoted in such a way that it engages the horizontal fold of the newspaper and this in the position Dl as shown in FIG. 2, ie slides into a recess in the housing front wall 1A. The buyer can now grab the newspaper D2 by the fold and pull it out of the device, as shown in FIG. 3. The driver 3 then immediately returns to its starting position and is ready for further separation. The working area of the driver 3 is covered in such a way that there is no risk of injury to the buyer.

Es versteht sich, daß das erläuterte Ausführungsbeispiel im Rahmen des Erfindungsgedankens abgewandelt werden kann. It is understood that the exemplary embodiment explained can be modified within the scope of the inventive concept.
