Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of returning empties Packaging of small-scale assortments of retail, preferably in supermarkets, food departments and butchers, but also for example in hardware stores. These packages are preferably made in shell form. For this reason is also based on without limitation of generality Refillable trays referenced.
  • Reusable tray return systems are used for detection and Returnable depositable trays. As a result of the withdrawal a receipt will be issued.
  • the Reusable trays either by capturing the geometric Dimensions and shape using simple optoelectronic Systems, preferably through light barrier systems, as well as through Analysis of the surface condition and / or by weight measurement identified.
  • Reusable trays continue to be used in connection with return systems according to utility model DE 295 14 703 U1 and design M 95 07 241 known. These are characterized by that for the sake of sufficient recognizability only a few geometrical ones Shapes and dimensions are permitted. That leads to a restriction regarding the type and range of the packaged Were.
  • packages preferably in Shell shape, are in the publications EP 0495 230 B1; WHERE 96/11 142; WO 93/23 294; EP 0574 819 B1; US 5,018,623; US 4,949,897; US 4,702,377; EP 0173 525 A2 to find.
  • EP 612 046 A1 describes a method and an apparatus for Take-back of packages such as bottles and cans described.
  • the Device has an input opening into which a pack is set.
  • the pack stands on a lifting link, which is formed on an endless conveyor.
  • the Lifting link By means of this Lifting link, the pack is transferred to a recognition position.
  • the pack is recognized by recording a Barcodes. Based on this recognition process, the package then fed to a compacting device, in which one The volume of the pack is reduced before this is done is transferred to a storage container.
  • the object of the present invention is a device to provide that on the safe and quick detection of retail packaging is aimed on which purpose a unique identification code is attached.
  • this object is achieved with a generic Device achieved in that the detection unit on the Input channel is arranged so that the recognition unit Code of the surface facing the recognition unit a commercial packaging located in the feed channel is recorded.
  • the present invention furthermore relates to the use the device for reusable trays.
  • reusable trays is the code either on a label stuck on (Label) attached or the label is so in the surface embedded in the reusable bowl and forms a uniform one Area that the code on the label at normal use of the reusable bowl is safe from destruction.
  • Such reusable trays are in their geometric shape, the Material design and surface quality practical not limited. Only the part of the surface on which the code must be sufficiently flat for readability be designed.
  • Reusable trays with code preferably barcode
  • code preferably barcode
  • it serves for clear identification the reusable trays only a barcode and not how so far a variety of geometric parameters. This ensures detection with practically no error rate and simple programming of the range to be included on the part of the user personnel.
  • the geometric shape, the material Composition of the reusable shell and its surface quality without affecting the identification process, so that the trade in the selection of these packages is practically not restricted is.
  • a device according to the invention as shown in Figure 1 is consists of a box-shaped arrangement on the front panel designed as a door for the user attached display boards or similar about that received by the system Assortment as well as the operating sequence is informed.
  • the front panel 1 can be rotated either to the left or can be opened on the right.
  • the reusable tray 3 In the upper area of the front panel 1 there is an input opening 2, into which the reusable tray 3 is thrown.
  • the reusable tray 3 should be directed so that the on its code 24 upwards in the direction of the recognition unit 4 is directed.
  • the code 24 is either applied directly to the reusable tray 3 or is on one of the reusable trays 3 applied label (label) 25. It contains those for type recognition and return of the necessary information.
  • the reusable tray 3 slides using gravity on the inclined input channel 5 down to the rear. there it is on the detection unit 4, and in the event of presence also at the same time on the optional built-in recognition unit 4a, both preferably omnidirectional laser scanners, so passed that the information on the code label can be read. This information is provided by the evaluation, storage and control unit 6 detected and with the the target information stored in it is compared.
  • the reusable shell 3 If the reusable shell 3 is not identified as belonging, because e.g. was inserted incorrectly because of the reusable tray type does not correspond to the range or because of the on the reusable tray 3 code located is damaged or missing, moves the turnout 7 does not. In this case the reusable bowl falls 3 at the end of the input channel 5 into the one below inclined return channel 10. It slides on this by means of Gravity downwards and reaches the return opening 11 in the front door 1 of the return system. A bracket 12 prevents doing so that the reusable tray 3 from the return opening 11 falls out.
  • This arrangement ensures that when not as specified Assortment of properly identified objects of the collection container 9 is locked.
  • the user After completing the input process, the user actuates the Receipt button 13 located on the front panel 1 End of the input process confirmed and the receipt requested.
  • the receipt printer 14 then prints the receipt for the user stating the number, type, unit prices and total price and optionally a barcode.
  • This receipt will issued through an ergonomically designed receipt opening 15 and can be removed from the customer. In return of this The user receives vouchers at a cash register for the corresponding deposit amount or the amount will be offset against the purchase amount.
  • time-out a predetermined period of time automatically created and spent.
  • the filled collecting container 9 can optionally through the open Rear door 16 or pulled out through the open front panel 1 and be emptied.
  • the result of the throw-in and further instructions are optional through a voice output module 17 to the user acoustically Announced.
  • FIG. 2 shows the optional arrangement with two mirrors 18 and 19, which together with the divider prism 20 ensure that the recognition unit 4 also has a code 24 directed downwards can capture.
  • FIG. 3 shows the optional arrangement with two mirrors 21 and 22, which together with the Köster division prism ensure 23 that the detection unit 4 is also directed downwards Code 24 can capture.
  • FIG. 4 shows a reusable tray provided with a code 24 3 in top view. Code 24 is optional on a label 25 attached.
  • Figure 5 shows the reusable tray 3 in side view as well the label embedded in the surface by means of casting compound 26 25 with code 24 in enlargement.
