Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of product propulsion devices, and more particularly to a product propulsion device having a reducer. [Background technology]

[0002] The product pusher is an automatic display device that is applied to retail shelves in supermarkets, convenience stores, department stores, vending machines, etc., and can replenish or push out products when products are in short supply or shipped out. That is, when a consumer needs a current product, the product pusher pushes out the required product for the consumer to easily pick it up.

[0003] Therefore, the applicant has researched, developed and applied for an invention patent for a product pusher with application number 202222895212.3. During daily use, the applicant discovered that when a product is pushed out, the pusher's instantaneous recovery force causes the product to quickly reach the front. During the rapid thrust, the product is not kept balanced and stable, and falls off the pusher, preventing the product from being effectively pushed out in front of the consumer. Subsequently, manpower is required to remove the fallen products and to organize and maintain the device.

[0004] Therefore, new technical solutions need to be explored to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, the present invention addresses the deficiencies of the prior art, and its main objective is to provide a merchandise propelling device with a reducer. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a product propelling device having a reducer including a base, a pedal attached to the base, and a pusher installed on the pedal for controlling the movement of the pedal, wherein the pedal is provided on the outside with a reduction mechanism including a damper and a gear rack component; The damper is attached to a side end of the pedal and has a rotary shaft protruding from one side to reduce the speed at which the pedal is pushed out. The gear rack component includes a rotating wheel and a rack that meshes with it, the rotating wheel is provided on one side of the damper and attached to a rotating shaft, the rack is installed along the axial extension direction of the base and is disposed within the base, and the pusher controls the movement of the pedal to cause the rotating wheel to mesh with and move along the rack, thereby decelerating the damper.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the base is provided with a slide groove extending along its axial direction, and the slide groove is provided on one side of the rack.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the pedal is slidably mounted in a sliding groove of the base, and a protective fixed plate for pushing out the product is provided at the top of the base, and the pusher controls the pedal to slide along the sliding groove and controls the rotating wheel on one side to make a reciprocating linear motion along the rack, pushing out the product so that it moves forward to the protective fixed plate.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, a protective frame extending upward is provided on both the left and right sides of the base to prevent the product from falling during extrusion.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the protective frame is removably attached to the base.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the pusher is a coil spring, a spreader, or an ejector spring, and has a restoring force for elastic deformation.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the base is provided at both ends with outwardly protruding positioning and mounting blocks, which are used for fastening to fixed blocks of equipment.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the pedal has an arc-shaped structure with a protective fixing plate, and the arc-shaped structures of the pedal and the protective fixing plate are arranged opposite each other, and are used to stably push out and protect the product. [Effects of the Invention]

[0014] The present invention has obvious advantages and beneficial effects compared with the prior art. Specifically, as can be seen from the above technical solution, by adding a reducer to the existing structure, the propulsion device can achieve the effect of slowing down the pushing of the goods, allowing the goods to move forward slowly and maintaining stability during the pushing of the goods, thereby avoiding the goods from being unstable and falling, which makes it impossible to effectively push the goods to the user. The present invention has a simple structure, a reasonable design, and is easy to use. By adopting a reducer composed of a damper and a gear rack component, the moving speed of the propulsion device can be effectively reduced. When the pedal is pushed forward, the gear on one side moves linearly along the rack, and the damper inside the gear further slows down the propulsion device, allowing it to move and move forward smoothly, ensuring that the goods reach the consumer smoothly.

[0020] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and examples.

[0021] As shown in Figures 1 to 6, the product pushing device with a reducer includes a base 10, a pedal 20, and a pusher 30, the pedal 20 is attached to the base 10, and the pusher 30 is installed on the pedal 20, and is used to control the movement of the pedal 20. A reduction mechanism 40 is provided on the outside of the pedal 20, which can effectively slow down and reduce the movement speed of the pedal 20, ensure the stability of product pushing, and prevent the product from falling during pushing.

[0022] In this embodiment, the speed reduction mechanism 40 includes a damper 41 and a gear rack 422 component 42. The damper 41 is attached to the side end of the pedal 20, and a rotating shaft protrudes from one side end. By attaching the gear rack 422 component 42 to the rotating shaft, the pushing speed of the pedal 20 is reduced, and the pedal 20 and the product at the upper end can be pushed forward smoothly, so that it can be pushed in front of the consumer.

[0023] Specifically, the gear rack 422 component 42 includes a rotating wheel 421 and a rack 422 that meshes with it. The rotating wheel 421 is installed on one side of the damper 41 and attached to the rotating shaft. The rack 422 is then installed along the axial extension direction of the base 10 and placed and fixed within the base 10. During use, the pusher 30 controls the movement of the pedal 20, causing the rotating wheel 421 to mesh with and move along the rack 422 to move linearly. The rotating wheel 421 decelerates the movement of the damper 41, further reducing the movement speed of the pedal 20, thereby ensuring the stability and pushing effect of the pedal 20.

[0024] In this embodiment, the base 10 is provided with a sliding groove 11 extending along its axial direction, and the pedal 20 is attached to the sliding groove 11 of the base 10 by sliding, so that the pedal 20 can slide along the sliding groove 11, and the sliding groove 11 is installed on one side of the rack 422.

[0025] Furthermore, a protective fixing plate 12 is provided at the top of the base 10 to push out the goods and provide a protective effect. Specifically, when the pusher 30 controls the pedal 20 to slide along the slide groove 11, it causes the rotating wheel 421 on one side to move back and forth linearly along the rack 422, effectively reducing the moving speed of the pedal 20. In conjunction with the deceleration control of the damper 41, the speed at which the pedal 20 pushes the goods forward can be well controlled, so that the goods can be safely and smoothly pushed out onto the protective fixing plate 12. A cushion pad is provided on the inner surface of the protective fixing plate 12. The cushion pad is made of a flexible material, which can further offset the impact force caused by the goods being pushed out and better protect the goods. The cushion pad may be made of a rubber mat or a cushion sponge.

[0026] In this embodiment, the base 10 is provided with an upwardly extending protective frame 14 on both the left and right sides thereof. The protective frame 14 is removably attached to the base 10, and can prevent the product from falling during extrusion. The protective frame 14 can be replaced with a different height and flexibility according to actual needs, thereby improving the adaptability of the device and widening the application range of the device.

[0027] In this embodiment, the pusher 30 used is a coil spring, spreader, or ejector spring, all of which have the ability to return to their original shape even after being elastically deformed. When the pedal 20 moves backward, the pusher 30 is elastically deformed as the pedal 20 moves. When the stopper locking groove no longer locks the stopper, the pedal 20 slides forward under the action of the elastic recovery force of the pusher 30 and is also slowed down by the deceleration mechanism 40, thereby reducing the moving speed of the pedal 20 and ensuring the stability and safety of the merchandise and preventing the merchandise from being lost due to the merchandise flying out due to the momentary elastic recovery force.

[0028] In this embodiment, the base 10 is provided with outwardly protruding positioning mounting blocks 13 at both ends thereof, which can be fastened to fixed blocks on the equipment, thereby enabling the base 10 to be firmly attached to display equipment such as shelves and vending machines.

[0029] In this embodiment, the pedal 20 and the protective fixing plate 12 both have an arc-shaped plate structure, and the arc-shaped plate structures of the pedal 20 and the protective fixing plate 12 are arranged opposite each other, which provides good stability and protection during product extrusion and prevents damage and other situations during extrusion.

[0030] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention, and merely describe the technical principles of the present invention. These descriptions are intended only to interpret the principles of the present invention, and cannot be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention in any manner. Based on this interpretation, any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention, as well as other specific embodiments that those skilled in the art can associate with the present invention without any creative work, should all be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
