Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cigarette sales technology, and in particular to an auxiliary device for cigarette retail operations. Background Technology

[0002] In daily sales, cigarettes are typically displayed in transparent protective cases. To make it easier for customers to observe and select cigarettes, and to showcase a wider variety of cigarettes, they are usually placed on a slanted display shelf. When a customer wants to buy, the salesperson opens the shelf from the side and reaches in to retrieve the cigarettes. Because cigarettes are displayed in boxes on the slanted shelf, staff can easily touch other boxes during retrieval, causing them to slide and requiring rearrangement. To solve this problem, staff drive nails into the slanted shelf, wrap rubber bands between the nails, and then secure the cigarette boxes between the rubber bands and the shelf. While this method solves the problem of sliding, it diminishes the display effect, especially the nail-covered shelf and the blackened rubber bands, which negatively impact the sales experience. Therefore, a solution is urgently needed. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an auxiliary device for cigarette retail operations. This device provides a place for displaying cigarettes, and through an independent pull-out design, it not only does not interfere with adjacent cigarette boxes each time they are taken out, but also effectively fixes the cigarette boxes, thereby improving the display effect of cigarette sales.

[0004] To achieve the aforementioned objective, the technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows: a cigarette retail operation auxiliary device includes: a cabinet, a transparent glass cover, a display board, and a fixing component; the display board is inclinedly arranged on the top of the cabinet; the transparent glass cover is installed on the top of the cabinet and covers the outside of the display board; the fixing component is plugged into the cigarette box and is slidably connected to the upper surface of the display board.

[0005] Preferably, the fixing component includes a long strip and a snap-fit ​​box; there are multiple snap-fit ​​boxes, which are evenly distributed along the length of the long strip, and the snap-fit ​​boxes and the cigarette box form a plug-in fit; the display plate is provided with a plug-in groove with one end open; the long strip and the plug-in groove form a plug-in fit.

[0006] Preferably, the end of the long strip is provided with a handle groove.

[0007] Preferably, there are multiple insertion slots, which are evenly distributed along the length of the display panel.

[0008] Preferably, the side of the transparent glass cover is provided with an opening for pulling out the elongated strip.

[0009] Preferably, the cabinet has a storage compartment inside for storing whole cartons of cigarettes.

[0010] Preferably, guide strips are provided on both sides of the long strip; guide grooves are provided on the inner walls of both sides of the insertion slot; the guide strips and guide grooves form an insertion fit.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are reflected in: (1) The device provided by this utility model has a simple structure and is easy to operate. It can not only effectively display cigarettes and assist in sales, but also take out the cigarette box containing cigarettes from the display cabinet by simply pulling the fixed component, thus improving the convenience of daily cigarette sales.

[0012] (2) The fixing component provided by this utility model forms a pull-out fit with the display board and a plug-in fit with the cigarette box containing the cigarettes through an independent box body. This not only makes it easy for operators to pick up the cigarettes, but also effectively fixes the cigarette box, preventing the cigarette box from slipping on the inclined slope when picking it up, thus improving the stability of use.

[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, and not all of them. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0016] Example See Figure 1-4As shown: This utility model provides an auxiliary device for cigarette retail operations, including: a cabinet 10, a transparent glass cover 20, a display board 30, and fixing components.

[0017] The display panel 30 is arranged at an angle on the top of the cabinet 10; the transparent glass cover 20 is installed on the top of the cabinet 10 and covers the outside of the display panel 30 to form a display cabinet. The fixing component is plugged into the cigarette box A and is slidably connected to the upper surface of the display panel 30. An opening 21 for pulling out the fixing component is provided on one side of the transparent glass cover 20.

[0018] In practical application, the operator only needs to pull the fixing component from the opening 21 to take out the cigarette box A originally displayed on the display board 30 from the display case. The operator does not need to put their hands into the display case. This is not only convenient, but also saves the operator time in taking out the cigarette box A containing cigarettes. Furthermore, taking out the cigarette box A will not accidentally touch the adjacent cigarette boxes A.

[0019] The fixing components include a long strip plate 40 and a snap-fit ​​box 41. There are multiple snap-fit ​​boxes 41, which are evenly distributed along the length of the long strip plate 40, and the snap-fit ​​boxes 41 and the cigarette box A are connected by a snap-fit. The display plate 30 is provided with a snap-fit ​​groove 31 with one end open. The long strip plate 40 and the snap-fit ​​groove 31 are connected by a snap-fit.

[0020] With this setup, the operator can insert cigarette boxes A into the card holders 41 one by one. Since each cigarette box A corresponds to one card holder 41, the cigarette box A will not be disturbed when the long strip 40 is pulled as a whole, thus improving the stability of picking up the cigarette box A.

[0021] A handle groove 42 is provided at the end of the long strip 40 to provide a force point, making it easy for the operator to pull the long strip 40.

[0022] There are multiple insertion slots 31, which are evenly distributed along the length of the display panel 30, so that multiple brands of cigarettes can be stored on the entire display panel 30, thus improving the display effect.

[0023] The side of the transparent glass cover 20 is provided with an opening 21 for pulling out the long strip 40, and the opening 21 forms a channel for pulling the long strip 40.

[0024] The cabinet 10 has a storage compartment inside for storing whole cartons of cigarettes, which allows operators to replenish the cigarette boxes A being sold on the display board 30 at any time.

[0025] Guide bars are provided on both sides of the long strip 40; guide grooves are provided on the inner walls of both sides of the insertion groove 31; the guide bars and guide grooves form an insertion fit.

[0026] This design makes the movement between the long strip 40 and the display board 30 smoother and more stable, and the long strip 40 will not fall out of the insertion slot 31 of the display board 30 when it is pulled, thus improving the stability of use.

[0027] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
