Description

Commodity propulsion device with reducer Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of commodity propulsion devices, in particular to a commodity propulsion device with a reducer. Background Art

[0002] A merchandise pusher is an automatic display device used on retail shelves in supermarkets, convenience stores, department stores, and vending machines. It can replenish or push out merchandise when it is out of stock or shipped. That is, when a consumer needs the current product, the merchandise pusher will push out the required product, making it easy for the consumer to pick it up.

[0003] Therefore, the applicant developed and applied for a utility model patent, with application number 202222895212.3, for a product pusher. During daily use, it was found that when the product was pushed, the instantaneous recovery force of the pusher would cause the product to be quickly delivered to the front. However, during the rapid pushing process, the product could not easily maintain a balanced and stable state, causing it to fall from the pusher, making it impossible to effectively push the product to the consumer. In addition, manual labor was required to remove the fallen product and organize and maintain the device.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to study a new technical solution to solve the above problems.

[0005] Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of this, the present invention aims to address the deficiencies in the prior art, and its main purpose is to provide a commodity propulsion device with a speed reducer.

[0007] To achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a commodity propulsion device with a reducer, comprising a base, a push plate and a propulsion member, wherein the push plate is mounted on the base, the propulsion member is arranged on the push plate for controlling the movement of the push plate, and a speed reduction mechanism is provided on the outer side of the push plate, wherein the speed reduction mechanism comprises a damper and a gear rack assembly;

[0008] The damper is installed at the side end of the push plate and has a rotating shaft extending to one side, which is used to slow down the pushing speed of the push plate;

[0009] The gear rack assembly includes a rotating wheel and a rack meshing with the rotating wheel. The rotating wheel is arranged on one side of the damper and is mounted on the rotating shaft. The rack is arranged along the axial extension direction of the base and placed in the base. The propulsion member controls the movement of the push plate, so that the rotating wheel meshes and moves along the rack and drives the damper to perform a deceleration movement.

[0010] As a preference, the base is provided with a sliding groove extending along its axial direction, and the sliding groove is provided on one side of the rack.

[0011] As a preference, the push plate is slidably installed on the slide groove of the base, and the head of the base is provided with a protective fixed plate for pushing the goods over. The propulsion member controls the push plate to slide along the slide groove and makes the rotating wheel on one side move back and forth along the rack, controlling it to push the goods forward to the protective fixed plate.

[0012] As a preference, upwardly extending protective frames are provided on the left and right sides of the base to prevent the goods from falling during the pushing process.

[0013] As a preference, the protection frame is detachably mounted on the base.

[0014] As a preference, the propulsion member is a coil spring, a wire puller or a push spring, and has a restoring force of elastic deformation.

[0015] As a preference, both side ends of the base are provided with outwardly protruding positioning mounting blocks for fastening connection with the fixing blocks of the equipment.

[0016] As a preference, the push plate and the protective fixing plate are in an arc plate-like structure, and the arc plate-like structures of the push plate and the protective fixing plate are arranged relative to each other, so as to stably push and protect the goods.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has obvious advantages and beneficial effects. Specifically, it can be seen from the above technical scheme that: by adding a reducer to the original structure, the propulsion device can have a deceleration effect in the process of pushing the goods, so that the goods can move forward slowly, maintain the stability of the goods during the pushing process, and avoid the situation where the goods fall out due to instability, and cannot be effectively pushed to the user. The present invention has a simple structure, reasonable design, and easy use. The reducer composed of a damper and a gear rack assembly can effectively slow down the moving speed of the propulsion device. When the push plate is pushed forward, the gear on one side will move linearly along the rack, and the damper on the inside of the gear can further make the propulsion device have the effect of deceleration and smooth movement forward, ensuring that the goods can be smoothly delivered to the hands of consumers.

[0030] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0031] Referring to Figures 1-6: A product pushing device with a reducer includes a base 10, a push plate 20 and a push member 30. The push plate 20 is installed on the base 10, and the push member 30 is set on the push plate 20 to control the movement of the push plate 20. A reduction mechanism 40 is provided on the outer side of the push plate 20. The reduction mechanism 40 can effectively slow down and reduce the moving speed of the push plate 20, ensure the pushing stability of the product, and avoid the product falling out during the pushing process.

[0032] In this embodiment, the deceleration mechanism 40 includes a damper 41 and a gear rack 422 assembly 42. The damper 41 is installed on the side end of the push plate 20 and a rotating shaft extends to one side end. By installing the gear rack 422 assembly 42 on the rotating shaft, the push plate 20 can slow down and reduce the pushing speed, so that the push plate 20 and the goods on the upper end can move forward smoothly and be pushed to the front of the consumer.

[0033] Specifically, the gear rack 422 assembly 42 includes a rotating wheel 421 and a rack 422 meshing with it. The rotating wheel 421 is set on one side of the damper 41 and is mounted on the rotating shaft. The rack 422 is then set along the axial extension direction of the base 10 and fixed in the base 10. During use, when the propulsion member 30 controls the movement of the push plate 20, the rotating wheel 421 can mesh and move along the rack 422 for linear motion, and the damper 41 is driven by the rotating wheel 421 to perform a deceleration motion, thereby further slowing down the moving speed of the push plate 20 and ensuring the stability and pushing effect of the push plate 20.

[0034] In this embodiment, a slide groove 11 extending along the axial direction of the base 10 is provided, and the push plate 20 is slidably installed on the slide groove 11 of the base 10, so that the push plate 20 can slide along the slide groove 11, and the slide groove 11 is set on one side of the rack 422.

[0035] Furthermore, a protective fixing plate 12 is provided at the head of the base 10 for pushing the goods over to provide protection. Specifically, when the propulsion member 30 controls the push plate 20 to slide along the slide groove 11, and enables the rotating wheel 421 on one side to make reciprocating linear motion along the rack 422, the moving speed of the push plate 20 is effectively reduced, and combined with the deceleration control of the damper 41, the speed of the push plate 20 when pushing the goods forward can be well controlled, thereby safely and smoothly pushing the goods to the protective fixing plate 12, and a buffer pad is provided on the inner side of the protective fixing plate 12. The buffer pad is made of flexible material, which can further offset the impact force generated by the goods being pushed over and better protect the goods. The buffer pad can be made of rubber pad or buffer sponge.

[0036] In this embodiment, upwardly extending protective frames 14 are provided on the left and right sides of the base 10, and the protective frames 14 are detachably mounted on the base 10, which can prevent the goods from falling during the pushing process, and can be replaced with protective frames 14 of different heights and softness according to actual needs, thereby improving the adaptability of the device and expanding the scope of application of the device.

[0037] In this embodiment, the propulsion member 30 used is a coil spring, a wire puller or a push spring, all of which have a restoring force that can restore to its original shape after elastic deformation. When the push plate 20 moves backward, the propulsion member 30 is elastically deformed as the push plate 20 moves. When the stop slot no longer clamps the stop block, the push plate 20 will slide forward under the elastic restoring force of the propulsion member 30, and due to the deceleration effect of the deceleration mechanism 40, the moving speed of the push plate 20 can be reduced, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the goods and avoiding the goods being bounced out due to the instantaneous elastic restoring force, thereby causing loss of the goods.

[0038] In this embodiment, positioning and mounting blocks 13 protruding outward are provided on both side ends of the base 10. The positioning and mounting blocks 13 can be fastened to the fixing blocks on the equipment, so that the base 10 can be firmly mounted on display equipment such as shelves and vending machines.

[0039] In this embodiment, the push plate 20 and the protective fixing plate 12 are both arranged in a circular arc plate structure, and the circular arc plate structures of the push plate 20 and the protective fixing plate 12 are arranged relative to each other, so as to ensure that the goods have good stability and protection during the pushing process and avoid damage during the pushing process.

[0040] The above is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and only specifically describes the technical principles of the present invention. These descriptions are intended only to explain the principles of the present invention and should not be construed in any way as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention. Based on the explanations herein, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention, as well as other specific embodiments of the present invention that can be imagined by those skilled in the art without inventive effort, shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
