Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a price tag, in particular to an electronic price tag with linkage timing. Background Art
[0002] For some time-limited sales products, the sales time is specified, and merchants need to remember the product listing and removal dates, or mark the product shelf period with a handwritten signature. Due to the large number of cigarette labels, in this case, merchants are very likely to forget or confuse the product shelf time, and using handwritten signatures to mark also brings a lot of inconvenience to merchants.
[0003] Electronic price tags in the prior art are always used independently, requiring merchants to set prices, barcodes or other display information for the products in advance, and cannot automatically trigger timing according to the product listing time. Therefore, this solution proposes an electronic price tag with linked timing. Utility Model Content

[0024] In order to more clearly illustrate the utility model, the utility model is further described below in conjunction with preferred embodiments and drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that the content described below is illustrative rather than restrictive, and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0025] The utility model provides an electronic price tag with linkage timing, comprising a base, on which a back plate, a sensing mechanism and an electronic price tag are arranged; the sensing mechanism is arranged between the back plate and the electronic price tag, and a carrier plate is movably arranged on the top of the base, and the carrier plate and the back plate together constitute a commodity placement area; the sensing mechanism comprises a sensor for detecting whether the carrier plate carries an article, the electronic price tag is electrically connected to the sensor, and timing is started or stopped according to a feedback signal from the sensor.
[0026] The electronic price tag in the utility model has a built-in single chip microcomputer, which can control the panel display according to the feedback signal of the sensor, and can be implemented by referring to the existing technology.
[0027] In the utility model, the sensor in the sensing mechanism detects whether there are commodities on the carrier plate, and then transmits the detection signal to the electronic price tag. The electronic price tag automatically starts timing when the commodity is put on the shelf, and automatically stops timing when the commodity is taken off the shelf, which provides convenience for merchants to manage the commodities on and off the shelves.
[0028] Example 1
[0029] This embodiment provides an electronic price tag with a linked timing function, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a base 1 and a back panel 2 arranged on the base 1, a sensing mechanism and an electronic price tag 4.
[0030] The sensing mechanism is arranged between the back plate 2 and the electronic price tag 4, and a carrier plate 6 is movably arranged on the top thereof. In this embodiment, the carrier plate 6 and the back plate 2 together constitute a placement surface for the commodity.
[0031] Preferably, the carrier plate 6 is rotatably connected to the back plate 2. Specifically, an opening is provided on the back plate 2, and a connecting shaft 7 is provided on the back plate 2 at a position corresponding to the opening. Preferably, the connecting shaft 7 is located on the back side of the back plate 2, that is, the side that does not contact the goods. One side of the carrier plate 6 is rotatably provided on the connecting shaft 7 by providing a shaft sleeve. The size of the opening on the back plate 2 should enable the carrier plate 6 to rotate.
[0032] The sensing mechanism includes a base 3 and a sensor 10 disposed on the base 3 for detecting whether the carrier 6 carries an item. The electronic price tag 4 is electrically connected to the sensor 10, and the timing is started or stopped according to the feedback signal of the sensor 10. In this embodiment, the sensor 10 is a distance sensor 10 or a weight sensor 10. When the sensor 10 is a weight sensor 10, it can detect whether the carrier 6 carries an item by sensing the weight change of the item carried on the carrier 6. When the sensor 10 is a distance sensor 10, it detects whether the carrier 6 carries an item according to the change in the distance of the carrier 6 relative to the sensing mechanism.
[0033] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a guide hole is provided at the top of the base 3 , and a pressure rod 9 which is matched and connected with the guide hole is provided at the bottom of the carrier plate 6 , and the pressure rod 9 is slidably connected in the guide hole on the base 3 .
[0034] A platform 5 is rotatably provided at the front end of the base 1, and the electronic price tag 4 is placed on the platform 5. A connecting rod 8 is connected to the back of the electronic price tag 4, and the connecting rod 8 extends into the base 3 and is located at the bottom of the pressure rod 9. A guide groove 11 connected to the guide hole is provided on the surface of the side of the base 3 relative to the electronic price tag 4 to leave space for the connecting rod 8 to move up and down.
[0035] In this embodiment, the carrier 5 includes a bottom plate and a backing plate which are perpendicular to each other, and a through hole for accommodating the connecting rod 8 to pass through is formed on the backing plate.
[0036] When no goods are placed on the carrier plate 6, due to the deadweight of the electronic price tag 4, the connecting rod 8 pushes the pressure rod 9 upward to deflect the carrier plate 6 upward away from the sensing mechanism; when goods are placed on the carrier plate 6, under the action of the gravity of the goods, the pressure rod 9 pushes the connecting rod 8 downward to restore the electronic price tag 4 to a suitable display angle.
[0037] Preferably, in this embodiment, the signal line of the sensor 10 passes through the interior of the connecting rod 8 and is connected to the electronic price tag 4 .
[0038] The working principle of the utility model is as follows:
[0039] When putting the goods on the shelf, the goods are placed on the carrier plate 6, and the carrier plate 6 deflects downward around the connecting shaft 7 under the load-bearing state, and the pressure rod 9 slides in the guide hole in the base 3 and squeezes the connecting rod 8 at the same time. Under the pulling action of the connecting rod 8, the electronic price tag 4 rotates to a suitable display angle; in this process, the sensor 10 detects the gravity change or displacement change signal of the carrier plate 6, and transmits it to the electronic price tag 4 through the signal line, and the electronic price tag 4 starts timing;
[0040] When taking goods off the shelf, take the goods off the carrier plate 6, and the electronic price tag 4 deflects downward under the action of its own gravity. At the same time, the connecting rod 8 pushes the pressure rod 9 upward to deflect the carrier plate 6 upward away from the sensing mechanism; in this process, the sensor 10 detects the gravity change or displacement change signal of the carrier plate 6, and transmits it to the electronic price tag 4 through the signal line, and the electronic price tag 4 stops timing.
[0041] The electronic price tag with linkage timing of the utility model can realize automatic start timing when the goods are put on the shelf and automatic end timing when the goods are taken off the shelf, which is convenient for merchants to manage, saves labor time and improves management efficiency.
[0042] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the present invention in any form. Any simple modification or equivalent changes made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
