Definitions

  • the invention relates to a mechanical self-seller with a coin evaluation device and with a control device for releasing a goods dispensing device after the insertion of a suitable coin amount, the control device being coupled to a locking bar of the goods dispensing devices and having a locking slide for the locking bar.
  • the coin evaluation device is formed by a coin validator, a credit facility and a cashier.
  • the control device is a surcharge control.
  • a self-seller of the type mentioned is also described in DE-AS 26 44 858.
  • the coin evaluation device and the control device are permanently installed in the self-seller.
  • This has the disadvantage that if the mechanics are to be serviced in the event of malfunctions, it is difficult to access them. This is particularly the case when the coin evaluation device and the control device are very close to the side wall of the self-seller. This is desirable in order to utilize the installation space as much as possible for the storage of goods.
  • the coin validators have long been removable from the self-seller. However, this does not improve the possibility of maintenance of the control device. Even if the coin evaluation device and the control device can be removed as a structural unit from the self-seller, there is no simplification of the work for eliminating a fault at the installation site of the self-seller.
  • the object of the invention is to propose a self-seller of the type mentioned in the introduction, in which, for maintenance, the control device on the self-seller can be moved into a position in which it is accessible and in which it is decoupled from the goods dispensing devices.
  • the above object is achieved in that the coin evaluation device and the control device a carrier is arranged, which is slidably mounted on horizontal rails of the self-seller from an insertion position into an extended position, that the carrier has a joint with which it can be pivoted about a vertical axis in the extended position, and that a coupling device is arranged on the carrier, which couples the control device with the locking rod and the locking slide in the inserted position and which releases when the carrier moves into the pull-out position.
  • the carrier with the coin evaluation device and the control device can be pulled out to the front and then folded away from the door to the side.
  • the coin evaluation device and the control device are then accessible from the front.
  • the control device is decoupled from the locking rod and the locking slide. The necessary coupling takes place simply by inserting the carrier.
  • the coupling device is to be designed in such a way that, on the one hand, it leads to the suitable release of the locking slide and, on the other hand, it directs its movement to the control device and the coin evaluation device after the locking bar has been released by the locking slide.
  • a coin dispenser with a large holding capacity for coins to be returned can be arranged in the space behind the coin evaluating device.
  • Such coin dispensers multiply the possible selling prices for self-sellers. They also give you the option of issuing deposit stamps together with the goods.
  • the coin dispenser In order to make the coin dispenser easily refillable, it should be arranged so that it can be pulled out against the smallest possible spring force and designed so that when the coin dispenser is inserted, it is automatically coupled to its control device. In addition, smooth operation should be ensured.
  • the coin store is attached to a further support which can be pulled out on the rail of the self-seller parallel to the goods dispensing compartment.
  • a trigger slide takes a control lever in the pull-out direction of the carrier, for which an idle stroke is provided between the stop and the coupling element in the closed position of the goods delivery compartment.
  • a reset member is attached to the carrier, which guides the control lever to the release slide when the carrier is pushed back.
  • the coin dispenser must therefore be pulled forward to refill its coin store in the self-seller.
  • the filler does not need to carry out any operations to decouple the trigger slide or the control lever.
  • the control lever automatically returns to the position from which he can operate the trigger slide.
  • the control lever itself is not hindered by the stop of the goods delivery compartment when pulling out the carrier. It is not necessary to return springs that either hinder the pulling out of the carrier or make the coin dispensing operation difficult.
  • the restoring element is formed by a spring clip which, when the carrier is pushed in, relieves the control lever against the trigger slide. On the one hand, this ensures that the control lever and, accordingly, the coupling member are brought exactly into the starting position, but in the starting position no large spring forces act on the control lever.
  • the spring clip allows a favorable overstroke to avoid pinching after actuation of the trigger slide.
  • the associated coupling members or stops are offset from one another such that when a goods delivery compartment is actuated, only one release slide and only then the other release slide is actuated.
  • the invention can be used both in self-sellers in which the goods dispensing devices as drawers or push buttons in a row lie next to each other, as well as in self-sellers in which several goods removal flaps are provided one above the other.
  • a plurality of goods removal boxes 2 are arranged one above the other in a self-seller housing 1.
  • an oblique receiving plate 3 for bottles or cans opens.
  • the goods removal boxes 2 are each closed at the front with a flap 4.
  • a work base plate 5 stands vertically in the self-seller.
  • a locking rod 6 and sliding blocks (not shown in more detail) for mutually locking the flaps 4 are usually arranged on the work base plate 5.
  • a coin evaluation device is arranged on the carrier 9 and consists of a coin validator 11, a credit facility 12 and a cashier device 13.
  • a control device 14 is arranged on the carrier 9.
  • the carrier 9 is shown in its insertion position, in which the door 15 of the self-seller house is closed.
  • the door 15 is opened and the support 9 slidably extended on the rails 7 and pivoted about the hinge 10.
  • the devices arranged on the carrier 9 can be checked on the one hand.
  • the space that lies behind the support 9 in the inserted position is accessible.
  • the control device 14 is designed as an additional price control. It has four scanning levers 16 which cooperate with cam disks 17 which are advanced by the credit facility 12. Locking levers 18, which are controlled by price control rods 19, are assigned to the scanning levers 16. Each locking lever 18 rests with its one end on a pin 19 1 attached to each price control rod 19. The price control rods 19 are coupled to the goods dispensing devices 2 in accordance with the proposed sales price. As soon as one of the scanning levers 16 falls into a cam - the assigned locking lever 18 thus releases the scanning lever 16, this moves a locking slide 21 under the action of a tension spring 20, which is also mounted on the carrier 9. The locking slide 21 moves an elbow 22, which is mounted on the base plate 5 and releases the locking rod 6 after moving. The locking slide 21 and the angle piece 22 are assigned to one another in such a way that the locking slide 21 with the support 9 leaves the angle piece 22 when the support 9 is pulled forward and strikes the support 9 when it is inserted.
  • a bolt 23 is fastened to the locking rod 6. In the inserted position of the carrier 9, this engages in a recess 24 in a rotary plate 25, which is mounted on a rotational axis 26 on the carrier 9. On the rotary plate 25, warts 27 are expressed, with which it rests on the carrier 9.
  • the recess 24 is designed such that when the carrier 9 is pulled forward, the rotary plate 25 leaves the bolt 23 and, when the carrier 9 is pushed in, the bolt 23 engages in the recess 24. In the rest position (.
  • the control lever 30 On the rotary plate 25, two journals 28 and 29 are arranged, which serve to drive a control lever 30 and engage in guides 31 and 32.
  • the control lever 30 is also mounted with an elongated hole 33 on a pin 34 arranged fixed on the carrier 9.
  • the control lever 30 has a further elongated hole 35, into which a pin 36 engages, which brings the cashier 13 into the cashier position via an eccentric 37.
  • a control lug 38 is formed on the control lever 30 and is assigned to a slide 39 which is able to open the coin validator 11 via a control lever 40. that coins go directly through a money return channel 41 into a money return compartment 42.
  • control lever 30 is provided with a guide projection 43. This slides in a slot 44 of the carrier 9.
  • the guide projection 43 has a recess 45 with which the control lever 30 can grip around the slot edge.
  • An upper control slide 47 and a lower control slide 49 continue to act on a bolt 46 on the rotary plate 25.
  • the control spools 47 and 49 are mounted by means of guide curves 50 and 51 on bolts 52 and 53 fastened to the support 9.
  • the control slides 47 and 49 serve to lift the scanning lever 16 from the cam disks 17 when the rotary plate 25 is pivoted.
  • the guide curves 50 and 51 are curved in such a way that the contact point of the control slides 47 and 49 on the scanning levers l6 changes little to avoid friction.
  • a bracket 54 is arranged on the carrier 9, on which a spring-loaded locking pin 55 is guided.
  • a bore 56 is provided on the work base plate 5, into which the locking pin 55 engages in the inserted position of the carrier 9.
  • a handle 57 is provided for lifting the locking pin 55 out of the bore 56.
  • a stop screw 58 is provided to limit the extended position of the support 9 on the rails 7. If this is solved, the carrier 9 can be removed with the parts arranged on it from the self-seller.
  • the locking pin 55 is locked in the bore 56.
  • the bolt 23 engages in the recess 24.
  • the control levers 18 are connected to the price control rods 19 via the pins 19 ′ and the locking slide 21 lies against the angle piece 22.
  • the lower control slide 49 holds the scanning levers 16 away from the cam disks 17 so that they can continue to run without being loaded by the scanning levers 16 in the course of the coin insertion. If an attempt is then made to actuate one of the flaps 4, the locking levers 18 assigned to their sales price are pivoted.
  • the rotary plate 25 is pivoted via the bolt 23 of the locking rod 6 in such a way that the control slide 49 releases the scanning lever 16, so that the scanning lever which faces the cam of the cam disk 17 assigned to it snaps into it and thus then moves the locking slide 21, so that the locking rod 6 is also released via the angle piece 22 and this does not hinder further opening of the flap 4 in question for the removal of goods.
  • the rotary plate 25 pivots about 60 °.
  • the control lever 30 is first raised immediately above the bearing journal 28, so that the control lug 38 prevents the cashier device 13 from accepting further money. This is useful because during the scanning process between the scanning lever 16 and cam disks 17, a further acceptance of money could lead to malfunctions.
  • the scanning levers 16 are lifted off the cam disks 17 by the upper control slide 47.
  • the control lever 30 then pivots over the guide 32 and the bearing pin 29 in the direction of arrow K such that the pin 36 engaging in its elongated hole 35 brings a bottom arranged in the cashier device 13 into the cashier position via the eccentric 37, the one in the cashier device 13 lying coins captured by the credit facility 12 get into a cash register of the self-seller.
  • a further carrier 106 is guided on the rail 7.
  • Cylindrical coin stores 107 and 108 are arranged vertically on the carrier 106 and are designed, for example, for the return of 0.10 DM or 0.50 DM coins.
  • the extendable coin evaluation and control device described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5 is arranged in front of the carrier 106.
  • Each of the coin stores 107 and 108 has a trigger slide 110 and 111, on which a tension spring 112 and 113 acts. If the trigger slide 110 or 111 is pulled in the direction of the arrow P (see FIG. 6), then one of the coins of the coin store 107 or 108 concerned reaches an intermediate position. When the trigger slide 110 or 111 is released, it is moved under the action of the tension spring 112 or 113 against the direction of the arrow P, the coin then falling from the intermediate position into the money return channel 41, 42.
  • a control lever 114 With a rounded end 115 bears against it.
  • the control lever 114 is fastened to a control rod 116 which extends along all the goods delivery compartments 2.
  • a pivotable coupling member 117 is arranged on the control rod 116 in each of the goods delivery compartments 2.
  • the trigger slide 111 is assigned a control lever 118 on a further control rod 119, which carries pivotable coupling members 120.
  • Two spring clips 121 and 122 are fastened to the carrier 106.
  • the free end of the spring clip 121 is in contact with the control lever 114.
  • the spring clip 122 stands with its free end on the control lever 118. In the starting position shown in FIG. 6, the spring clips practically do not load the control levers.
  • a stop piece 123 is arranged on each goods delivery compartment 2, in the movement path of which folded-down coupling members 117 and 120 protrude. Folded-up coupling links lie outside the movement path of the stop piece 123.
  • FIG. 9 shows a foldable coupling member 117 in the folded-down position.
  • the coupling member 117 has a U-shaped profile with side legs 124 and 125 and a cross piece 126.
  • a pin 127 is arranged on the inside of the side leg 125.
  • the side legs 124 and 125 are mounted on a bolt 128 with a head 129 inserted through the control rod 116 and 119, respectively.
  • a compression spring 130 is arranged between the head 129 and the side leg 125. In the embodiment shown in Figure 9 position of the side leg 125 by means of the - compressed compression spring 130 on the control rod 116th The cross piece 126 bears against the control rod 116.
  • the trigger slide 111 takes the control lever 118 accordingly.
  • the control rod 116 rotates and the coupling members 120 pivot (cf. FIG. 8a).
  • the coupling members 120 do not abut the stop piece 123 since there is an idle stroke or a corresponding distance between the two parts in the inserted position of the goods delivery compartment 2.
  • the carrier 106 pulled forward, the coin store 108 is far ahead in the self-seller, so that it can be filled easily. If the carrier 106 is then inserted again, the spring clip 122 presses the control lever 118 back into the starting position.
  • the stop piece 123 abuts the folded coupling member 120, so that the control rod 116 rotates and the control lever 118 pulls the trigger slide 111 backwards. After a certain stroke, the stop piece 123 overtakes the coupling member 120 (cf. FIG. 8b), so that the tension spring 113 then pulls back the trigger slide 111, the coin being issued.
  • the trigger slide 111 takes the control rod 116 with it when it returns to the starting position. If this represents an undesirable load for the tension spring 113, a separate - weak - return spring is arranged on the control rod 116.
  • the stop piece 123 acts on the coupling member 120 in the direction of the arrow E (cf. FIG. 8c).
  • the spring clip 122 ensures that the stop piece 123 can overtake the coupling member 120 without effort and without jamming.
