Abstract

Ensemble amélioré de porte de présentoir prévu pour un dispositif de stockage de produits. Lensemble de porte de présentoir comprend une unité transparente comportant un panneau avant, un panneau arrière et un panneau ACL transparent positionné entre le panneau avant et le panneau arrière. Le panneau ACL transparent est configuré pour présenter du contenu média visuel. De plus, lensemble de porte de présentoir comprend un élément déclairage configuré pour assurer léclairage du panneau ACL transparent et des produits, dans le dispositif de stockage de produits. En outre, un guide lumineux est configuré pour diriger de façon sélective la lumière émise, de lélément déclairage vers le panneau ACL transparent et vers les produits, dans le dispositif de stockage de produits.
