Abstract (en)

The invention relates to an assembly of a checkout unit and a rack for displaying articles such as tobacco and candy. The checkout unit comprises a cash register and a conveying apparatus for conveying articles to be checked out in the direction of the cash register. The rack comprises a rear wall, two sidewalls, an open front side and a door, whilst between the sidewalls a display space having this open front side is present for displaying these articles at a height level which is higher than the height level at which the conveying apparatus is located, and the open front side can be closed off and released by the door. The sidewalls and the display space extend above the conveying apparatus. The rack further comprises a closing shelf, movable in a non-vertical plane between a first and a second position. In the first position, the closing shelf is slid at least partly into the rack so that it is located next to the conveying apparatus of the checkout unit. In the second position, the closing shelf extends from the display space to near the open front side so that the closing shelf at least almost touches the bottom side of the door when the door closes the open front side. <IMAGE>
