Embodiment Construction

[0089] exist figure 1 Shown in is a shelf label system 1 comprising a plurality of identically constructed NFC-enabled electronic shelf labels 2A-2K implemented as shelf label displays secured to three "smart" shelf rails 3 places. Each shelf track 3 has an NFC subsystem. NFC readers 4A-4C are an integral part of each NFC subsystem. The NFC readers 4A-4C are inserted into the shelf rail 3 from the side. Furthermore, each shelf rail 3 has a conductor loop L as part of the NFC subsystem, which conductor loop extends along the entire length of the shelf rail 3 and whose conductor loop terminal C is connected to an NFC reader 4A-4C. Conductive connection. The conductor loop L forms the antenna of the respective NFC reader 4A- 4C and thus a component of the respective NFC reader 4A- 4C integrated in the shelf rail 3 . Once the conductor loop L of the shelf label 2A-2K corresponding to the corresponding shelf track 3 is installed at the corresponding shelf track 3 and detected...

Abstract

The invention relates to an electronic shelf labelling system, wherein the system has a server which is designed to individually address a plurality of shelf labels in order to communicate data with them in an addressed manner, and wherein the system has at least one access point which is connected to the server and is designed for radio communication of the data with the shelf labels, and wherein the system has a near-field communication (NFC) sub-system on a shelf edge strip of a shelf, wherein the NFC sub-system is characterised in such a way that the shelf edge strip has an NFC reader which is designed for radio-based communication with the access point, and in such a way that at least one conductor loop is provided which is connected to the NFC reader, formed along the shelf edge strip and functioning for NFC communication with an NFC-enabled shelf label, wherein at least one NFC-enabled shelf label is attached to the shelf edge strip corresponding to the conductor loop, and wherein the NFC reader is designed for NFC communication of the data with the shelf label addressed by the server.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an electronic shelf label system with a shelf track subsystem. Background technique [0002] An electronic shelf label system for displaying information by means of an electronic shelf label display is known, for example, from the international patent application WO2017 / 153481A1, which is hereinafter referred to simply as an ESL system, where ESL stands for "Electronic ShelfLabel", said ESL system Features a proprietary shelf track subsystem. In said known ESL systems, such a rack rail subsystem is built at each rack rail. In the subsystem, the rack rail is equipped with electrical conductor tracks, by means of which the ESL of the rack rail is controlled via the management module of the rack rail. The ESL has spring-loaded contacts on its rear side to which conductor tracks make contact to electrically connect the ESL to the management module. [0003] However, the shelf rail subsystem is relatively expensive, since a plura...
