Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a long item measuring and cutting fixture and a long item sales system used to cut long items such as hoses, tubes, or ropes that are displayed wound on bobbins and sell them by weight. [Background technology]

[0002] In retail stores, long items such as hoses and ropes are placed on display shelves wound on bobbins and sold to customers in the length they need, a practice known as selling by weight (see, for example, Patent Document 1). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-223713 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, in the past, including the method described in Patent Document 1, when selling long items such as hoses by weight, store staff carried a separate measuring tool with them or stored near the display shelves to measure the long items. These measuring tools were often bamboo rulers, tape measures, or tape measures. Regardless of the type, store staff held the measuring tool in their hands and pulled the long item along with it to measure it, which was not very user-friendly. Furthermore, there were also worrying situations where store staff were not carrying the measuring tool when called by a customer, or the measuring tool was moved from its intended storage location. While it was conceivable to fix a tape measure to a case used as a cut display case for storing long items, when multiple types of long items were displayed on the display shelves, it was necessary to prepare a measuring tool for each type, which resulted in high costs and was not practical.

[0005] The present invention addresses these problems by eliminating the hassle of preparing measuring tools and the difficulty of working during measurements, and aims to provide a long object inspection and cutting fixture and long object sales system that are easy to operate and use. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] In order to achieve this object, the technical means according to the present invention is a fixture for measuring and cutting long objects, which has at least the following configuration.

[0007] This is a display fixture for measuring and cutting long objects, which is used together with a bobbin for long objects around which long objects are wound and which is used to sell long objects of a desired length, and is characterized by having a storage section for storing the tape measure, and a fixing section for detachably attaching the main body of the display fixture for measuring and cutting long objects to a display shelf on which a plurality of bobbins for long objects are displayed in a row or in the vicinity of the display shelf. Here, "tape measure" refers to a type of measuring tool in which a tape- or strip-shaped "measure" is wound up and stored in a case, but it also includes those in which the strip is made of cloth or vinyl, as well as so-called "convex" ones made of metal.

[0008] In order to achieve the above object, the technical means according to the present invention is a long item sales system having at least the following configuration.

[0009] A long item sales system comprising a long item bobbin around which long items are wound and used to sell long items of the desired length, a long item measuring and cutting fixture, and a bobbin display fixture, wherein the long item measuring and cutting fixture has a storage section for storing a tape measure and a fixing section that allows the main body of the long item measuring and cutting fixture to be attached and detached to the bobbin display fixture, and the bobbin display fixture is placed on a display shelf and has a support section that supports the long item bobbin and a front member. [Effects of the Invention]

[0010] According to the present invention having the above-mentioned characteristics, it is possible to provide a user-friendly long item inspection and cutting fixture and long item sales system that is easy to operate, can easily accommodate multiple types of long items arranged on display shelves, and eliminates the hassle of preparing measuring tools and the difficulty of working during measurements.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0012] The fixture for measuring and cutting long objects according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. However, the drawings below have been created for the purpose of explanation, and for the sake of clarity, some components not necessary for the explanation may not be shown intentionally. Furthermore, some components may be shown intentionally larger or smaller for the purpose of explanation, and the drawings are not drawn to an accurate scale.

[0013] First Embodiment Fig. 1 is an explanatory diagram showing a fixture for measuring and cutting long objects according to a first embodiment of the present invention, with Fig. 1(a) being a front view, Fig. 1(b) being a left side view, Fig. 1(c) being a plan view, and Fig. 1(d) being a perspective view. Fig. 2 is an explanatory diagram showing a state in which a tape measure is stored in the fixture for measuring and cutting long objects according to the first embodiment of the present invention, with Fig. 2(a) being a front view, Fig. 2(b) being a left side view, Fig. 2(c) being a plan view, and Fig. 2(d) being a perspective view.

[0014] As shown in Figures 1(a) to 1(d), the fixture A for measuring and cutting long objects according to the first embodiment of the present invention comprises a storage section 1A, a hook 2A, and a magnet holder 31A, and a magnet 3A is held in the magnet holder 31A by appropriate means such as applying an adhesive or attaching adhesive tape (see also Figure 2(d)). A tape measure TM is stored in the storage section 1A. The hook 2A and the magnet 3A function as fixing sections for fixing the fixture A for measuring and cutting long objects to a display shelf. The fixture A for measuring and cutting long objects according to the first embodiment of the present invention is a synthetic resin component made by injection molding, and is formed from a single-piece molded component. The method of formation may involve assembling two separate components, or it may be made of metal.

[0015] The hook 2A and the magnet 3A function as fixing parts suitable for different height positions of the shelf on which the bobbins are displayed. This will be described later. While it is possible to have only one of the fixing parts, the hook 2A or the magnet 3A, in this embodiment, both are provided, which is highly convenient. On the other hand, if only the magnet were provided, for example, the degree of freedom in setting the fixing position of the magnet would be increased, and the magnet could be freely fixed to the top, bottom, or back of the display fixture for measuring and cutting long objects, making it possible to set the location suitable for the shape of the display shelf. However, if only the hook 2A were provided, it would be practically difficult to install it at a very low position. This will also be described later.

[0016] Hook 2A has a claw-like shape that curves backward from its base on the storage section 1A side to its upper tip so that it can engage with the top surface of the price rail, which is the front member that intersects with the shelf board of the display shelf. Here, the front member is, for example, a price rail or a POP display board, but its shape is not limited to a plate-like member and can be a hollow frame or a net-like member. Any member or shape is eligible as long as it has a grip that can engage the hook. The length of the hook part of the claw is set to a width and length that will not easily fall off the price rail, taking into account the weight balance of long item inspection and cutting fixture A when tape measure TM is stored inside.

[0017] As shown in FIGS. 2(a) to 2(d), the storage section 1A of the fixture A for measuring and cutting long objects according to the first embodiment of the present invention is loaded with a tape measure TM, a type of measuring tool in which a tape- or strip-shaped measuring tape M is wound around a case. The size of the storage section 1A is set to be approximately the same as the size of the tape measure TM, except for the depth. Since the fixture A for measuring and cutting long objects is not designed to store the tape measure TM once, if the tape measure TM is loaded from above the storage section 1A and then a magnet 3A is attached to the magnet holder 31A, the tape measure TM will not easily fall out. The illustrative example of the tape measure TM shown in FIGS. 2(a) and 2(d) is a tape measure containing a flexible measuring tape M made of cloth or vinyl. A flexible tape measure M is preferable when the measuring tape M is used by bending it at a right angle or less, or when the measuring tape is repeatedly pulled along a hose. This also provides an advantage in terms of safety against injury. However, it is also possible to use a so-called convex tape measure, which has a metal tape measure that is hard to bend and stable. In this case, the advantage is that the tape will stand upright when measuring.

[0018] Second Embodiment Figure 3 is an explanatory diagram showing a fixture for measuring and cutting long objects according to a second embodiment of the present invention, in which Figure 3(a) is a front view, Figure 3(b) is a left side view, Figure 3(c) is a plan view, Figure 3(d) is an oblique view, and Figure 3(e) is an oblique view of the fixture with the tape measure stored.

[0019] As shown in Figures 3(a) to 3(d), the fixture B for measuring and cutting long objects according to the second embodiment of the present invention comprises a storage section 1B, a hook 2B, and a magnet holder 31B, and a magnet 3B is held in the magnet holder 31B by appropriate means such as applying an adhesive or attaching adhesive tape (see also Figure 3(e)). A tape measure TM' with a stopper function is stored in the storage section 1B, and as shown in Figure 3(d), a button access groove 11B, which is a circular arc-shaped notch, is provided on the side panel of the storage section 1B. The hook 2B and the magnet 3B function as fixing parts for fixing the fixture B for measuring and cutting long objects to a display shelf.

[0020] The hook 2B and the magnet 3B function as fixing parts suitable for different height positions on the shelf on which the bobbins are displayed. While it is possible to have only one of the fixing parts, either the hook 2B or the magnet 3B, this embodiment has both, which is highly convenient. On the other hand, if only the magnet were provided, for example, the degree of freedom in setting the fixing position of the magnet would be increased, and the magnet could be freely fixed to the top, bottom, or back of the display fixture for measuring and cutting long objects, making it possible to position it in a location suitable for the shape of the display shelf. However, if only the hook 2B were provided, it would be practically difficult to install it at a very low position.

[0021] Hook 2B has a claw-like shape that curves backward from its base on the storage section 1B side to its upper tip so that it can engage with the top surface of the price rail, which is the front member that intersects with the shelf board of the display shelf. Here, the front member is, for example, a price rail or a POP display board, but its shape is not limited to a plate-like member and can be a hollow frame or a net-like member. Any member or shape is eligible as long as it has a grip that can engage the hook. The length of the hook portion of the claw is set to a width and length that will not easily fall off the price rail, taking into account the weight balance of long item measuring and cutting fixture B when tape measure TM' with a stopper function is stored.

[0022] As shown in FIG. 3(e), a tape measure TM' with a stopper function, which is a type of measuring tool that stores a tape- or band-shaped measuring tape M wound in a case, is loaded into storage section 1B of fixture B for measuring and cutting long objects according to a second embodiment of the present invention. The size of storage section 1B is set to be approximately the same as the size of tape measure TM' with a stopper function, except for the depth dimension. Since fixture B for measuring and cutting long objects is not designed to store a tape measure TM' with a stopper function once it has been stored, if a magnet 3B is attached to magnet holder 31B after loading tape measure TM' with a stopper function from above storage section 1B, the tape measure TM' with a stopper function will not easily fall off.

[0023] The fixture B for measuring and cutting long objects according to the second embodiment is designed to accommodate a tape measure TM' with a stopper function, and therefore a button access groove 11B, which is an arc-shaped cutout, is provided on the side panel of the storage section 1B, and as shown in Figure 3(e), the measurer can operate the stopper release button MB while the fixture B for measuring long objects is stored in the storage section 1B. However, this does not prevent the fixture B for measuring and cutting long objects from being loaded with a tape measure TM that does not have a stopper function.

[0024] Third Embodiment Figure 4 is an explanatory diagram showing a fixture for measuring and cutting long objects according to a third embodiment of the present invention, in which Figure 4(a) is a front view, Figure 4(b) is a left side view, Figure 4(c) is a plan view, Figure 4(d) is an oblique view, Figure 4(e) is an oblique view of the fixture with the tape measure stored, and Figure 4(f) is a cross-sectional view along line AA of Figure 4(b).

[0025] As shown in Figures 4(a) to 4(d), the fixture C for measuring and cutting long objects according to the third embodiment of the present invention comprises a storage section 1C, a hook 2C, and a magnet holding section 31C, the storage section 1C being provided with a window 12C for pulling out a measuring tape M, and a magnet 3C being held in the magnet holding section 31C by appropriate means such as applying an adhesive or attaching adhesive tape (see also Figure 4(e)). A tape measure TM is stored in the storage section 1C. The hook 2C and magnet 3C function as fixing sections for fixing the fixture C for measuring and cutting long objects to a display shelf. The fixture C for measuring and cutting long objects according to the third embodiment of the present invention is composed of a two-piece member made of synthetic resin. When the tape measure TM with the tape measure M pulled out is placed between the two halves of the piece and the two halves are then glued together and assembled, the tape measure TM is stored inside the long object measuring and cutting fixture C with the tip of the tape measure M partially pulled out (see Figure 4(e)).

[0026] The hook 2C and the magnet 3C function as fixing parts suitable for different height positions on the shelf on which the bobbins are displayed. While it is possible to have only one of the fixing parts, the hook 2C or the magnet 3C, in this embodiment, both are provided, which is highly convenient. On the other hand, if only the magnet were provided, for example, the degree of freedom in setting the fixing position of the magnet would be increased, and the magnet could be freely fixed to the top, bottom, or back of the display fixture for measuring and cutting long objects, making it possible to position it in a location suitable for the shape of the display shelf. However, if only the hook 2C were provided, it would be practically difficult to install it at a very low position.

[0027] Hook 2C has a claw-like shape that curves backward from its base on the storage section 1C side to its upper tip so that it can engage with the top surface of the price rail, which is the front member that intersects with the shelf board of the display shelf. Here, the front member is, for example, a price rail or a POP display board, but its shape is not limited to a plate-like member and can be a hollow frame or a net-like member. Any member or shape is eligible as long as it has a grip that can engage the hook. The length of the hook part of the claw is set to a width and length that will not easily fall off the price rail, taking into account the weight balance of the long object inspection and cutting fixture C when the tape measure TM is stored.

[0028] As shown in Figures 4(e) and 4(f), a tape measure TM, which is a measuring tool in which a tape measure M is wound up and stored in a case, is loaded into storage section 1C of long object measuring fixture C according to the third embodiment of the present invention. The size of storage section 1C is set to be approximately the same as the size of tape measure TM. Because the tape measure TM is completely enclosed within storage section 1C, there is no risk of the tape measure TM falling out.

[0029] <About the long item sales system> This section describes a bobbin display fixture suitable for use with the long object cut-to-length measuring fixtures according to the first to third embodiments, and a long object sales system including these long object cut-to-length measuring fixtures and bobbin display fixtures. This description can also be interpreted as a description of how the long object cut-to-length measuring fixtures according to the first to third embodiments of the present invention are used. Figure 5 is an explanatory diagram showing the bobbin display fixture, with Figure 5(a) being a perspective view of the bobbins displayed, Figure 5(b) being a right side view of the bobbins displayed, Figure 5(c) being a perspective view of the bobbins being removed, and Figure 5(d) being a right side view of the bobbins being removed. Figure 6 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of use, primarily for long objects displayed on the upper shelf, with Figure 6(a) being a perspective view of the measurement, Figure 6(b) being a perspective view of the measurement being performed, and Figure 6(c) being a partial enlarged view of the P1 portion.

[0030] As shown in Figures 5(a) to 5(d), the bobbin display fixture BF consists of a bottom frame that forms the bottom section, side frames that form the left and right sides, and a front member FL. The frame is a hollow frame, but the side frames can easily be replaced with plate-like ones, and the bottom frame can also be replaced with a plate-like one. A pair of support rods UR, UR are installed horizontally between the two left and right side frames, parallel to the bottom frame. The support rods UR are sometimes called under-rollers.

[0031] The front member FL has a direction that intersects with the shelves of the display shelf, is swingable, and functions as a place to place price rails and pops. As shown in Figure 5(a), by locking the front member in the upright position with an appropriate locking means (not shown), it is possible to prevent the bobbins from falling. Also, as shown in Figure 5(c), by unlocking the front member and tilting it, the bobbins can be removed from the front side rather than from above, making the bobbin removal process easier. However, since bobbins can be attached and removed from above even without swinging, swinging is not a necessary feature for bobbin display fixtures.

[0032] The support rods UR are hollow or solid round rods with a circular cross section, and are arranged in pairs parallel to each other in the front-to-rear direction between a pair of left and right side frames, with the rods split at equal intervals. It is preferable to support one or both of these round rods rotatably. A specific example of each support rod UR is a core rod having a rotatable cylinder fitted around its outer periphery, with both ends of the core rod fixed to the left and right side frames with fastening means such as screws. Furthermore, the rotatable cylinder may be split into multiple sections in the axial direction (left-right direction), and these split sections may be individually rotatably supported. This allows multiple bobbins to be placed on the split sections, and by pulling out a long item such as a hose from one of the bobbins, the rotation of that bobbin prevents the rotation of the other bobbins. As another example of each support rod UR, it is possible to support it non-rotatably on the left and right side frames and make point contact with the outer periphery of the bobbin placed on it, thereby supporting the bobbin so that it slides as the long object C is pulled out, or to attach one of the support rods UR detachably to correspond to the size of the bobbin, so that the distance between the two can be adjusted in the front-to-back direction.

[0033] When selling long items by weight on the upper or middle shelves, it is preferable to use the hook 2A as the fixing part. This is because the operating hand is at a high position, and it is easier to operate by simply pulling out the tape measure M horizontally. Before measurement, as shown in FIGS. 6(a) and 6(c), the long object cut-and-measure fixture A (which may also be the long object cut-and-measure fixture B or the long object cut-and-measure fixture C) is suspended by a hook 2A from a front member FL that intersects with the shelf board serving as the bottom frame, in a position where it will not get in the way, such as near the right end, with the tape measure TM (or tape measure TM') horizontal. Here, the front member FL is, for example, a board for placing price rails or pops, and has a direction that intersects with the shelf board (not necessarily perpendicular). In this embodiment, the front member is a component included in the bobbin display fixture BF, but it may also be included in the display shelf itself. Furthermore, the shape of the front member is not limited to a plate-like component, but may be a hollow frame or a net-like component. Any component with any shape is applicable as long as it has a handle for engaging the hook. On the other hand, when it is time to measure, as shown in Figure 6(b), the long object measuring and cutting fixture A or the like is slid to the bobbin position that holds the long object to be pulled out for purchase, etc. As mentioned above, when cutting a long object displayed on the upper shelf, it is easier to measure by pulling out the measuring tape M horizontally as it is so that it can easily follow the long object. In addition, the long object measuring and cutting fixture A can be slid left and right and placed in front of different bobbins loaded with multiple types of long objects, eliminating the need to prepare a long object measuring and cutting fixture for each bobbin, thereby saving costs.

[0034] Figure 7 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of use mainly for long items displayed on the lower shelves, where Figure 7(a) is an oblique view showing the state before measurement, Figure 7(b) is an oblique view showing the state during measurement, and Figure 7(c) is a partially enlarged view of the P2 portion.

[0035] When long items are sold by weight on the lower shelves, if hook 2A is used as the fixing part, there is a risk that hook 2A will fall off the grip of front member FL when tape measure M is pulled out from tape measure TM. Therefore, it is preferable to use magnet 3A as the fixing part for the lower shelves. The front member FL is assumed to be made of a magnetic material, and magnet 3A can be used to fix long object measuring and cutting fixture A (which may also be long object measuring and cutting fixture B or long object measuring and cutting fixture C). Furthermore, some stores display bobbins of different widths (full-width bobbins, half-width bobbins) randomly. By attaching and detaching tape measure TM, it is possible to easily move or fix the tape measure TM near the desired bobbin, improving workability. Note that the magnetic fixing method is not hindered for long items displayed on the upper or middle shelves. However, as can be seen from FIG. 7(b), pulling out the measure M further upward from the upper position may be somewhat difficult in terms of operability.

[0036] During measurement, as shown in FIG. 7(b), the tape measure M pulled out from the tape measure TM is bent at approximately 90 degrees from the pulled-out portion. From this point, the tape measure M is repeatedly pulled out while a long object of a predetermined length is placed against the tape measure, and is further bent downward as measurements are taken. Ultimately, the tape measure M is used in a state where it is bent downward so that it forms an acute angle from the pulled-out portion. For this reason, tape measure M made of a soft material such as cloth or vinyl is preferable to a metal tape measure. However, as in the third embodiment, if the tape measure M is constructed from a two-piece member and no hook is provided, and only a magnet is held on the top surface of the long object measuring and cutting fixture, and the long object measuring and cutting fixture is fixed to the back of the display shelf bottom, the tape measure M can be pulled out directly to the front, making it easier to use a metal tape measure.

[0037] 8(a) and 8(b) are explanatory diagrams showing a three-tier display shelf SH in which small-sized bobbins SB and large-sized bobbins BB are stacked and displayed, with Fig. 8(a) being a perspective view and Fig. 8(b) being a right side view. As mentioned above, the long object measuring and cutting fixture is fixed to the bobbin display fixture by hooks on the upper and middle tiers, and by magnets on the lower tier. It can also be seen that bobbin display fixtures BF are placed on the middle and bottom shelves, while smaller bobbin display fixtures BFS are placed on the top shelf. This is because bobbin display fixtures are usually arranged vertically in 3-4 tiers, and it is preferable to place smaller bobbins SB on the top shelf due to gravity.

[0038] The long object measuring and cutting fixture and long object sales system according to the embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the drawings, and their structures have been explained. However, the specific configuration is not limited to these embodiments, and design changes within the scope of the present invention are also included. For example, the long object measuring and cutting fixture C according to the third embodiment is not compatible with a tape measure TM' with a stopper function, but it may be configured with a central hole to allow access to the stopper release button MB of the tape measure TM'. Furthermore, a configuration in which the fixture is fixed to the side panel of a display shelf rather than the front member is also within the scope of the present invention. While the advantage of being able to slide left and right is lost, it still offers significant advantages in terms of eliminating the hassle of preparing measuring tools and the difficulty of measuring. Furthermore, rather than a so-called under-roller type in which the bobbin is rotatably placed on a support rod, it can also be fixed to the side panel of a bobbin or hose reel that is pivotally supported within a case. As already explained, even a device that is not able to slide still has advantages. [Explanation of symbols]
