The selection of cash boxes is carried out according to a certain scheme. For small shops- 1 box for 80-100 sq.m. area, for medium-sized stores - 1 cash box per 150 sq.m., and for large stores - 150-200 sq.m. Except size retail space, the number of boxes is affected by traffic peaks, if any, or the speed of the cashier. The latter depends on the technical equipment of the automation of the cash point, its compliance with the format of the store and the skills of the cashier. For quick service of buyers with piece purchases, express checkouts are used. This creates great convenience for buyers and saves time spent in the calculation.
What affects the speed of customer service?
How quickly the settlement will take place depends on the equipment of the cashier's workplace. It is worth noting the influence of the content of the POS-terminal device and the scanning system on the cash box device. There are vertical, horizontal (built-in) and manual product scanners. Multi-plane scanners are more optimal. They are built into the working surface of the cash register. To read the code, the cashier simply carries the goods over the scanner. The choice of a scanner must be approached consciously and thoroughly.
Similarly, weighing equipment can be built into the working surface of the table. Lately this popular solution is gaining a leading position in the sale of such goods by weight as sweets, fruits, vegetables. When the scales are located at the checkout, you save space on the trading floor and there is no need to additionally assign a person to them. Buyers are pretty nervous when they have to wait for a "special" person to hang the goods. Scales located at the checkout initiate an increase in purchases. Although with financial side the one-time cost of equipping all cash boxes with scales built into them can be expensive. In principle, the "fruits and vegetables" department can be equipped with scales with a receipt printing device with product pictures. This option likes to use the trading network "Bill".
An important point is the landing of the cashier. It can be front or side. With a frontal landing, the cashier sits facing the customer, while money box built into the work surface right in front of the cashier. Side landing involves the location of the cash drawer on the side table. At the same time, the cashier sits sideways to the customers and is forced to turn around every time the cash drawer is opened. More unnecessary movements are made, the efficiency of service is reduced.

The invention relates to commercial equipment and can be used in various stores such as supermarkets and hypermarkets and other similar self-service outlets.
Known cash box containing a countertop, equipped with three zones, located in accordance with the order of movement of the purchased goods. The first zone serves for the display of goods by the buyer and, as a rule, contains a conveyor, the second zone serves to pay for the goods, and the third zone is intended for packing the paid goods into packages. The tabletop is mounted on racks and other support elements that serve as holders for the cash desk control panel and drawers used by the cashier. The table top is limited around the perimeter by a closed carrier frame made of aluminum or hard plastic and divided into components of a given length (EP 2194820, A47F 9/04, 2011).
The disadvantages of this cash box are the limited possibilities of use, the presence of numerous holders around the box for various items, the lack of pedestals in which the necessary items could be placed. In addition, there are disadvantages such as the complexity of manufacturing and assembly, including the manufacture and assembly of the frame. The complexity of the assembly, as a rule, negatively affects this required quality actively used equipment, as maintainability, since the repair, replacement of parts usually requires at least partial dismantling of the equipment.
A cash box is known, containing a box-shaped commodity chamber with a side on which an upper horizontal polymer chipper is fixed, consisting of a display table and a drive connected in series, installed on vertical hollow box-shaped bases containing corner elements and lower chippers, a tabletop placed at the side of the chamber for cash register. The lower polymer bumpers are made convex and contain internal longitudinal air cavities. The specified cash side contains a control panel for calling the serviceman, alarming and emergency shutdown (RU 93244 U1, A47F 9/02, 2009).
A disadvantage of the known checkout box is that when using a checkout box of the type described, many difficulties arise in terms of their production and/or assembly. Currently, the production takes place on a case by case basis according to the customer's specification on a separate production line and this increases the cost and lead time of the cash box production due to the numerous requests for the production of the cash box according to the individual requirements of the customer.
In addition, at present, the assembly of a cash box requires the involvement of a qualified technical specialist having specialized knowledge and a certain set of tools. It is inconvenient when it is necessary to equip new shop or re-equip an existing one inexpensively and in the shortest possible time.
The closest analogue of the claimed cash box is a cash box containing a countertop with a product display area sequentially located on it, having a conveyor, a barcode reading zone from the product and a product storage zone, while the countertop is mounted on supporting pedestals, one of which is configured to place a cash register on it. The tabletop is fixed on the supporting pedestals by means of a device made in the form of a frame made by welding a rectangular profile. The tabletop is also equipped with a protective device - a chipper located along its perimeter (RU 51841 U1, A47F 10/00, 2005).
Known cash box can be delivered to the store in disassembled form, which simplifies the delivery of commercial equipment, and the assembly process can be carried out directly in the store.
The disadvantages of the known boxing are the complexity and complexity of assembling this box office. This is mainly due to the use of a massive welded frame, on which the tabletop is fixed, after which the frame is installed on the pedestals and fixed to the pedestals. The large dimensions of the frame, as well as its weight, additionally increase the complexity of the assembly process of this cash box. In addition, it is not possible to modify and assemble cash boxes of various sizes, because in each case, you need to make a frame of a given size. It is extremely difficult to dismantle and repair the box.
It should be noted that in the production and / or assembly of cash boxes of the described type, a large number of problems arise due to the fact that, on the one hand, such devices are in great demand, which leads to the requirement for versatility, which is necessary when producing any equipment in large quantities. On the other hand, the client often makes individual requirements for the cash box, namely, he wants the listed zones to be of a certain shape, color, size, depending on the customer's requests.
As a result, due to numerous requests for the production of a cash box according to the individual requirements of the customer, today the production takes place in each case according to the specification of the customer on a separate production line. Obviously, this affects the cost and production time of the box.
In addition, at present, the assembly of a cash box requires the involvement of a technician with specialized knowledge and a certain set of tools. This is inconvenient when it is necessary to quickly equip a new store or re-equip an existing one inexpensively and in the shortest possible time.
Thus, there was a need for new universal design solutions that would allow you to quickly and without extra costs mount a cash box adapted to the individual requirements of the customer using standard components. Moreover, it should be a design that is easier to assemble, which requires fewer tools and less qualified technical personnel.
The technical objective of the claimed invention is to simplify the assembly of the cash box at the workplace without the involvement of qualified personnel and to reduce the time of its assembly.
The technical result of the invention is the simplification of the design of the cash box, which facilitates the assembly of the cash box, and the possibility of assembling the box in accordance with the individual requirements of the client.
The technical result is ensured by the fact that in a cash box containing a table top with a product display area with a conveyor, a scanner area for reading the product barcode and a product storage area, two support pedestals, one of which is made with the possibility of placing a cash register on it, a device for fixing the table top on the pedestals and chippers, the device for fixing the table top on the pedestals is made in the form of profiles with a C-shaped cross section, and the upper part of each profile forms a side, and the lower part of the C-shaped profile has a base, while the outer side of each C-shaped profile in the middle part has a groove for fixing a fender in it, and on the inside, the C-shaped profile has a step-shaped recess under the side and four successively located grooves, which, depending on the location of the C-shaped profile, serve to accommodate fasteners or technical means conveyor zone or scanner zone for reading a barcode, or cash register storage zone, each C-shaped profile is made with internal cavities located along its entire length, and the profiles are installed on the outer and inner sides of the table top, the end sides of which are provided with protective end elements.
In addition, in the checkout box, in the first groove of the C-shaped profile installed in the conveyor area, there is a conveyor support frame with a support installed on a stepped recess, a conveyor belt tension system is installed in the second groove, while the frame is provided with a protrusion, which is fixed in the third groove, which has a fixing vertical protrusion.
In addition, the bent edge of the bottom closing panel of the conveyor is fixed in the fourth groove in the cash box.
In addition, in the cash box, the barcode scanner is fixed in the first and fourth slots of the C-profile by means of threaded fasteners.
In addition, in the cash box in the zone of the drive in the first groove of the C-shaped profile, there is an upper limb of the drive.
In addition, in the cash box, the profile board has a trapezoidal shape.
In addition, in the cash box on the side walls of the board, recesses are made for fixing various accessories.
In addition, the recesses are made in the form of grooves arranged horizontally and parallel to each other.
In addition, in the cash box in the upper corner of the first groove of the C-shaped profile and in the partition separating the fourth groove from the corresponding cavity - from the side of the cavity, additional recesses are made for attaching the end elements to the C-shaped profile.
In addition, in the cash box, the supporting pedestals are made in the form of boxes, and their open parts face each other.
In the particular case of execution in the cash box, the cabinets are equipped with shelves or drawers for the convenience of the cashier.

The above drawings show a cash box according to the invention, which has a horizontal extension from the end of the conveyor to the end of the drive, the location of which is determined by the direction of movement of goods in the store (usually we are talking about a supermarket or hypermarket).
The cash box contains a tabletop 1, on which the conveyor zone 1a is located in a horizontal sequence, which starts from the front end and goes into the scanner zone 1b, and the drive zone 1c, which ends with the rear end of the cash box (see Fig.1). Tabletop 1 is supported by support 2, consisting of two pedestals 20 and 21, located near the front and rear ends of the cash box. Cabinets 20 and 21 are made in the form of boxes with cavities located opposite each other, which can be supplemented with shelving or drawers for the convenience of the cashier. The cashier is located in the space between the pedestals 20, 21 (in the same place where the scanner area 1b is located), where there is a place for a chair or chair of the cashier.
The pedestal 20 is only partly occupied by the tabletop 1. The conveyor 10, having a smaller width than the rest of the tabletop 1, leaves space on the pedestal 20 to accommodate a cash register (not shown) and other standard electronic payment equipment, such as payment terminals. bank cards on a magnetic basis or on microchips (not shown in the drawing).
On the horizontal side surfaces of the tabletop 1 (see figure 1) according to the invention, profiles 3 (3", 3", 3"") are installed, which in cross section (in the plane perpendicular to the X axis) have the shape of the letter "C". Profiles 3, attached to the pedestals 20, 21, constitute the bearing support for the tabletop 1.
From the side of the cashier, two profiles 3" and 3" are installed along the conveyor 1a and storage 1c, respectively. On the opposite side, i.e. from the side of the buyer, one profile 3"" is provided along the entire length of the table top 1.
The cross section of the profile 3, shown in detail in Fig.6, has the shape of the letter "C" with the inner side 34 facing the inner side of the tabletop 1, and the outer side 31. The profiles 3 have a mirror arrangement on the tabletop 1. According to the invention, the same type of profile 3 is used on both sides of the tabletop 1, which allows it to be universally used during assembly.
The profile 3 has a flat bottom base 30 provided with a groove 30a for fixing it to the pedestals 20, 21 by placing in the groove 30a the threaded connections 30b shown schematically in FIG. These connections, in addition to the direct attachment of profile 3 to the bollards 20, 21, can be used in areas not in contact with the base bollards 20, 21, for attaching accessories at the individual request of the client, such as bag holders (not shown in the drawings).
The outer surface 31 of the profile 3, i.e. the surface on the customer or cashier side, has a slightly convex shape and has a rectangular groove 31a in its middle part for fixing a fender 31b therein. Fenders 31b are usually made of plastic in different colors depending on customer requirements.
The upper part of the profile 3, located on the opposite side of the lower base 30, is a side 32 of a trapezoidal shape. On the sloping sides 32c of the bead there are recesses 32a, with which various accessories 32b are mounted on the bead 32, such as, for example, holders for a PIN input device or, as shown in Fig. 1, supports for attaching a transparent plastic partition between the customer and the cashier, etc. Most often, such attachment of accessories is placed on the profile 3"" from the buyer's side in the area of the scanner 1b. The recesses 32a are made in the form of grooves located on the side walls 32c of the bead. The corresponding protruding parts of the desired accessory are inserted into the recesses 32a, which is thus attached to the bead 32 from above.
Under the board 32 on the inner side 34 of the profile 3 are four grooves: the first top 35, the second groove 36, the third groove 37 and the fourth groove 38 (Fig.6), sequentially located from top to bottom with a cross section in the form of a quadrangle. These grooves serve to accommodate threaded fasteners or work units of the countertop 1 of the cash box, which will be discussed below.
The vertical length of the inner side 34 of the profile 3 starts from the stepped recess 33 formed between the side 32 and the innermost side 34. The height of the inner side 34 of the profile in practice determines the space available to accommodate the mentioned working elements, namely the conveyor belt 10 of the conveyor zone 1a, the barcode scanner 11 in the zone 1b and the drive 12 in the third zone 1c of the package of paid goods.
In Fig.3 and Fig.3a shows in section the area of the conveyor 1a. This zone is provided with a conveyor belt 10 stretched in the form of a ring between the rollers 10c along the horizontal axis of rotation. In order to maintain tension on the conveyor belt 10, tension systems of a commonly known type (not shown in detail in the drawings) are used. They are placed inside the tape and are attached to the second groove 36, which is larger in size than the other three grooves. A support frame 10a for a conventionally shaped conveyor belt 10 having a protrusion 10a" is mounted on the inner side 34 of the profile 3 and on a stepped recess 33, and the protrusion 10a" is inserted into the groove 37. The groove 37 has a protrusion 37a installed in a vertical direction parallel to the inside of the profile 34, which partially covers the opening of the groove 37 to prevent accidental displacement of the protrusion 10a" of the frame 1 0a conveyor.
Slot 38 is used to receive the folded edge 10b" of the lower cover panel 10b of the conveyor, as well as to insert threaded fasteners to secure the scanner.
Figures 5a and 5b show a support 13 for a product barcode scanner which defines the central area of the table top and provides a location 13a for mounting the scanner's electronics and components. This space consists of a rigid frame made of metal profiles with two transverse bars 13b located perpendicular to the X axis, connecting profile fragments 3” and 3”” respectively with a single profile 3”, separating the scanner zone 1b from the conveyor zone 1a and the accumulator zone 1c. Crossbeams 13b (see Fig.5a) have protrusions 13c with threaded holes for fastening to the profiles 3 with bolts that are inserted into the first groove 35 and the fourth groove 38 of the profiles 3.
In Fig.4 and Fig.4a shows in cross section the third zone of the tabletop 1 - the drive zone 1c. This zone consists of a store 12, in which the goods already registered at the checkout are placed, which are then manually shifted by the cashier or the second conveyor to the edge of the cash box. The hopper 12 is secured by means of a groove 35 into which the top fold of the hopper 12a is inserted, which is specially profiled to ensure optimum fixation. The accumulator 12 can be made in various shapes and sizes by bending a sheet of metal.
Profile 3 has cavities 39, which facilitate the design of the profile, which are located along its entire length. In particular, such a cavity 39 is located in the lower part of the profile 3 between the groove 30a of the base 30 and the groove 38 located on the inner side 34 of the profile 3. In the partition 40 separating the groove 38 from the cavity 39, a recess 39a is made for inserting threaded connections (self-tapping screws) that connect the profiles 3 with the end elements 4 forming the ends of the cash box. A similar recess 39b is located at an angle in the second groove 36 of the inner part 34 of the profile and is adjacent to the groove 35.
End elements 4 are usually made of plastic. The profiles 3 are made of metal, preferably aluminium, while the pedestals 20, 21 are made of bent sheet steel.
The use of the cash box is as follows. The customer approaches from the outside of the cash box and places the goods on the conveyor area 1a of the tabletop 1. The goods are then moved by the conveyor 12 or manually by the cashier to scan the barcode and enter the store area 1c, from where they are taken by the customer after paying for the goods.
The proposed cash box offers numerous advantages, in particular the special shape of profile 3 with the presence of a significant number of fasteners, specially designed and universally suitable for assembly using a single standard mounting kit, which is cut to the desired size and is base element to build a cash box.
The claimed shape of the profile makes it easy to change the shape and dimensions of the cash box in accordance with the individual requirements of the customer, while the assembly process becomes easier and faster, since the presence of various recesses, grooves for fastenings allows you to avoid a significant part of the specialized work, such as perforation and welding, which are necessary when assembling cash boxes, currently known designs.
For example, often the client makes individual requirements for the cash box, namely, he wants the listed zones to be of a certain shape, color, size, depending on the customer's requests.
The claimed invention makes it possible to achieve such results when making a custom-made cash box (size, color, accessories) using standard components, which, in turn, reduces the cost of installation and equipment design. Therefore, it is no longer necessary to use different production lines for different customers.
In addition, if it is necessary to replace any part of the countertop, without involving a specialist, it is enough to unfasten the profiles and replace the worn-out part of the cash box with a new one, fixing it with profiles using threaded connections. The implementation of profiles with cavities makes the profiles light, which greatly facilitates the process of assembling the cash box.
At the same time, the presence of recesses made in the upper part of profile 3 allows you to easily and quickly, without fasteners and threaded locks, install various accessories, such as partition walls or a holder for a PIN code input device. The conveyor support is also installed without the use of threaded fasteners, but simply by fastening into the appropriate groove.
The claimed invention allows to significantly reduce the assembly time of the cash box. The cash box of this design can be easily assembled on site, since its components are fastened to each other by means of a groove connection. The end elements of the cash box are securely fixed with screws that are screwed into the profile with ready-made recesses, and therefore can be mounted with minimal effort.
Fenders are installed in a groove, with the possibility of removing them, so that if necessary they can be quickly removed and replaced, in case of damage or just for replacement appearance cash box.

One of the main irritants for customers in the store is the queue. Checkout queue- this is something that can affect the profitability of the store, no less than the range of goods or the attitude of the staff towards the buyer. Waiting in line in front of the cash register can force the customer to go to a nearby store, where prices may be higher and there is less assortment, but there is no need to waste precious time.
For successful work a self-service store of any format is a prerequisite - the correct selection checkout area equipment. The dominant position here is occupied by cash boxes. Care must be taken with the device checkout area of the store so that there is no too slow passage of buyers and the creation of queues.
Cash boxes for shops can be divided into a number of categories - for minimarkets, supermarkets, hypermarkets, "Cash & Carry" format stores In order to select the required model cash box, it is necessary to take into account the format of the store and its specialization. The main characteristics are the length of the working surface, a wide or narrow drive, the presence or absence of a conveyor, its length and width, a special soft coating for the sale of goods in glass containers.
Nowadays, not only the convenience and speed of customer service is of great importance, but also a beautiful stylish design. cash box. A small self-service store with an area of 100-300 sq.m will suit equipment of small dimensions with a length of 1400-1800 mm with narrow drives or a straight work surface. For supermarkets from 700 to 3000 sq.m. boxes with high throughput: with a long conveyor, a wide capacious store with a shopping divider. Cash boxes of supermarkets should be designed for a one-time service of several buyers: while one only puts the goods on the conveyor, the other makes settlements with the cashier, the third packs the purchased goods.
In hypermarkets with high traffic cash boxes with conveyor should be even longer. Hypermarkets are self-service stores with a universal range of food and non-food products. The average volume of purchases in them is quite high. Therefore, checkout boxes must have a high throughput, with a wide conveyor, rollers or a conveyor in the drive, increased strength and wear resistance. The Cash&Carry format requires a wide low conveyor and a capacious storage, cashier's free access to the trolley in order to calculate the goods directly in it.

To organize the cash space competently and efficiently is an important task. After all, the throughput of the store, the convenience for buyers and sellers, and the degree of protection of cashiers from attacks depend on this. In modern self-service stores, the workplaces of cashiers, where customers pay for goods, are usually equipped.
There are several types of cash boxes:
- Without conveyor. Usually small in size, with a small drive.
- With one conveyor belt. In this case, the length of the conveyor, the size of the drives and other parameters of the box may be different depending on the model.
- With two conveyor belts. "Double" box saves space trading floor and allows two cashiers to be in it at the same time and, accordingly, promptly serve two customers. Best suited for stores with a large customer flow.
Also, cash boxes are sometimes classified according to the size and purpose of the stores for which they are best suited:
- For minimarkets characterized by a small area, models are also used in small sizes (up to 1.6 m in length and not more than 1 m in width), without a conveyor. The same equipment is installed in discount stores.
- For supermarkets, the use of longer structures (from 2 m) is relevant. here, consumers tend to use not only a shopping basket but also a cart, and it is necessary to create sufficient throughput cash desks and convenient "entrances" to it. Usually boxes for supermarkets are equipped with a transport tape, have a capacious drive and a shopping divider.
- The next largest outlets are hypermarkets. Boxes for them are even longer, with a wide conveyor, shopping divider, one or two high-capacity drives.
- For outlets format "Cash & Carry" the options described in the previous paragraph are suitable, only when choosing it is also necessary to take into account that the cashier must be provided with access to the trolley in order to calculate large goods directly in it.
- Cash desks of construction hypermarkets (DIY) are issued taking into account the fact that work here is carried out with massive, heavy, dimensional goods.
What else to consider when choosing?
- The dimensions of the trading floor dictate their requirements for the parameters of the purchased boxes (length, width) and their number.
- The design of the equipment should be combined with the overall style and color scheme of the room.
- Durability of a design, durability, wear resistance, a possibility of repair, simplicity in leaving.
- Convenience of work of the seller and comfort for buyers.
- Safety. In stores with boxes closed on all sides, spontaneous attacks on employees are much less common.
- The presence or absence of the possibility of placing additional devices.
