Definitions

• the present invention relates to a device for recalling product packaging at the end of double pins of self-service store displays.
• reminder devices forwards, of objects or articles suspended from display pins, in order to facilitate their identification and removal by buyers.
• These are generally spring-loaded devices, working under compression, guided by the pins.
• each spindle comprises a compression element of the spring type, stacked and sliding freely on the latter, the rear end of which rests on a ring previously threaded on each spindle and the front end of which is embedded in a slide mounted on the spindle and secured to the plate serving as a pusher.
• Patent application FR-A-2,527,913 describes a fairly complicated production device, limiting the useful length of each spindle in a significant proportion, due to the presence of the spring and the slide.
• each spring drives a pusher sliding towards said stop, by means of a 180 ° return roller mounted on an axis located beyond the stop.
• the spring and its idler roller are arranged in .30 a vertical plane located parallel to the spindle, outside the field of displacement of the pins; which increases the overall size of the assembly and limits, a priori, the useful width.
• the object of the present invention is to remedy these drawbacks, because this invention, as characterized in the claims, solves the problem as long as to obtain the recall of the sachets on the front of the double pins by simple means, not requiring a special manufacture of spring, ensuring regular guidance of the packages over the entire length of said pins by eliminating any risk of jamming, without increase the size / this is obtained by the fact that the return spring and its return to 180 ° are arranged flat, between the two branches of a double spindle, in the plane materialized by them and in the space delimited by the groove in the tongue for hanging the packaging and that the sliding pusher consists of a sheet bent in a U comprising, below, edges folded 90 ° inwards and, on the front, legs bent 90 ° outwards, transmitting the thrust force to the packaging in the axis of the spindle.
• FIG. 1 shows a side view, in longitudinal section, of the device mounted on a spindle.
• FIG. 2 shows a top view of the device, mounted on a spindle.
• FIG. 3 shows a cross section of the assembly, at the deflection stud of the spring.
• FIG. 4 shows a front view of the sliding pusher.
• the device according to the invention consists essentially of the spindle 1, under which have been welded, on the rear, a cross member for hooking the spring 5 and, on the front, a cross member 3, on the top of which is fixed a cylindrical stud 4 with groove 4a, constituting the 180 ° reference, of a spring 5 and of a sliding plunger 6.
• the spring 5 is fixed, at one end, to the cross member 2 welded to the rear of the double spindle, below the latter and, by the other end, to the sliding plunger 6 , via the orifice 6a, after having been returned to the latter by the grooved stud 4 fixed on the cross-member 3, welded on the front of the spindle 1, near the nose 1a thereof ; the height of the reference 4 is at most equal to the diameter of the branches of the spindle 1.
• the spring 5 is hooked to the sliding plunger 6 by means of an orifice 6a, drilled at the edge of the upper part of the sliding plunger 6, in the longitudinal plane of symmetry of it.
• the packaging is constantly reminded towards the nose of the spindle 1, which serves as a stop, by the sliding pusher 6, under the action of the spring 5.
• the sliding pusher 6 is provided with tabs 6b deployed laterally on the front.
• the spring 5 is held in place, in its work plane, by the low-cut groove 4a in the return stud 4, whatever the tension exerted on the spring.
• the cross member 2 to which one of the ends of the spring 5 is hooked, projects beyond its ends 2a j on each side of the spindle 1, so as to serve as a rearward displacement stop for the sliding plunger 6 , held in place on the branches of the double spindle 1 by the folded edges 6a.
• the return device being entirely located inside the space delimited by the recess 7a existing in the tongue 7 allowing the packaging 8 to be attached to the double pins 1, n ' any packaging whose tongue has such a notch can be suspended from the pins, whatever the dimensions thereof.
• This arrangement is moreover suitable, without any restriction, for the presentation of packages of large width suspended by means of several pins, provided that their tongue includes the corresponding notches.
