Abstract: A Counter-System A counter system comprises at least one counter (1) as well as a plurality of shopping carts (2). The counter includes a cashier's section (3) as well as a conveyor band (5) advancing articles (15) to said cashier's section. The counter (1) helps in defin- ing a passage (9), through which the carts (2) pass the cashier's section (3). The counter (1) includes a bracket-shaped receiving section (10), the distance (a) of which from the floor on which the system is positioned is only a few millimetres greater than the distance (b) from the surface (12a) of the freely accessible loading surface (12) of the cart to the floor. The passage (9) is of a width (c) smaller than the width (d) of the shopping cart (2) so that the shopping carts (2) can only be pushed forward manually in the passage (9) when they are positioned perpendicular to the receiving sec- tion (10) and their loading surface (10) simultaneous- ly extends therebelow. In this manner the receiving section (10) brushes off the articles (15), if any, present on the loading surface (12) of the cart when said cart is to pass the system. In this manner a system is obtained which in a very reliable manner prevents the customer from passing through the sys- tem with his articles without having paid for all said articles at the cashier's section.
