Description

The Invention relates to a goods carrier with at least one support element for supporting goods.

such goods carriers are in showrooms to present of goods and related Promotional materials set up. Product carriers and furniture are in the most varied Forms and known in a wide variety of materials. Special Versatility requirements are placed on product carriers e.g. for cosmetics, Writing supplies etc. provided. The individual products should be individually exposed or in a collection side by side or on top of each other Tobe offered.

There if the products are high-quality, a product carrier must also be aesthetically pleasing address in a special way and so the customer for the products interested and animate to buy.

at the well-known product carriers become floors on top of each other on shelves arranged. The floors, on which the goods are presented are common rigid floors. If sufficient stability is to be achieved, then have the shelves a relatively high weight. This is especially true during transportation the product carrier, about for Trade fairs and sales exhibitions, a disadvantage.

task the invention is therefore to propose a product carrier that a has high stability and yet has a low weight.

The solution of this invention Task for the generic subject provides that the support element of the product carrier is essentially wave-like folded profile plate with alternating raised sections and trough-shaped depressions is formed. The wave-like shape means less material needed than with a solid plate. On the one hand, this means material costs saved, on the other hand the weight of the plate is reduced. Nevertheless, due to the waveform is high mechanical stability and strength reachable.

Advantageous it is that the profile plate is shaped as a square wave. hereby the raised sections of the plate become almost flat area educated. On this surface can Goods are placed without tipping over. There is also another one Improving stability, so that even heavy objects can be placed on the support element without it sagging.

Thereby, that the width of a gutter is smaller than the distance between two successive grooves of the profile plate, have the raised portions an even larger level area on. In contrast, the gutter-shaped Wells very narrow, so that an almost flat surface presentation of goods.

Around the stability to increase the support element, the profile plate is orthogonal to the gutters with the forehead and / or Back of the profile plate, preferably U-shaped, reinforcing profiles Mistake. additionally this results in an aesthetic effective completion of the profile plate.

Thereby, that the profile plate made of flexible material, preferably vacuum-formed Plastic, there is, it is possible and wind up the profile plate on a roll particularly space-saving to transport.

The Vacuum forming also allows a much cheaper production than that elaborate spray technology.

By the use of flexible material can reinforcement profiles the profile plate as well arranged in a substantially perpendicular to the course of the channels Be level curved. Due to the curved course the support element results in an interesting design effect, that draws the special attention of the consumer. On the other hand, this makes it possible that a single support element has different usable heights for placement of goods. This means that a support element can be attached to the most Product sizes or heights be adjusted.

conditioned by folding the profile plate, there are two channels gaps formed on the underside of the support element, which act as guides for bars or roar can serve. On these bars or tubes is the support element with this guide and is held. The Bars or roar can on a side or rear wall or be attached to other components of the product carrier.

The U-shaped Reinforcing profiles, especially the one on the back the profile plate, have openings to perform the fastening rods or tubes on. As a result, the support element is secure on the mounting rods or tubes to fix.

Through openings or fasteners on the side or rear wall or other components of the product carrier the fastening rods or tubes on the goods carrier Fasten. This allows the support element to be securely attached to the product carrier become.

By the rectangular wave The profile plate has narrow channels on the top. Separators, holders or attachments can be inserted into these channels. This makes it possible to make products to be fixed on the support element or product groups optically different from each other delineate. The dividers or holders can also be used for the articles be securely fixed when the support element is bent. Since the Separators, holders or attachments preferably detachable accomplished , they can be quickly and flexibly adapted to different requirements for product presentation to adjust. Moreover let yourself assemble or disassemble the support element in a short time, and the individual elements, namely Profile plate, reinforcement profiles as well as essays separate and transport space-saving. This is special then advantageous if the goods carrier at trade fairs or various Sales events are used and thus often built up, redesigned, must be dismantled and transported again.

Additionally points the support element on the front additional retaining bars or facing elements on. As a result, the goods are also parallel to the channels fixed. The facing elements serve as a design element.

The In one embodiment, the facing element can also be used for Display prices, product information or the like or an additional releasable Have device for this. These devices are also for the holding bars or essays intended.

Around the depth and length of the support element must be adapted to different sales stands for the Profile plate parallel or perpendicular to the channels one or more Predetermined breaking points are provided. In this way, the product carrier can be redesigned in a simple manner become.

Thereby, that the profile plate has at least one connecting element, through which two or more profile plates are connected to form larger supporting elements can be it is possible too to realize larger sales stands or without large To redesign effort within a short time.

interesting, eye-catching lighting effects, for example by colored backlighting can be realized that the profile plate is made of a transparent or opaque material consists.

On Carrier element as described above can be used for different types of goods carriers, for example used for furniture become.

The Carrying element can also be used as a side part, back part or support element or facing element of a product carrier are used. Likewise let yourself a complete product carrier with side panels, back panels and floors realize using the described support elements.

Furthermore the support element is also suitable for making furniture such as shelves or cupboards.

The Invention is referenced in a preferred embodiment on a drawing described by way of example, with further advantageous details the figures of the drawing can be seen.

Functionally the same Parts are provided with the same reference numerals.

The Figures of the drawing show in detail:

1 : A schematic exploded view of the support element 5 from the front in a spatial view;

2 : A schematic representation of a section of the product carrier from the front in a spatial view.

1 shows a schematic exploded view of the support element 5 from the front in a spatial view, in which the arrows A indicate the assembly of the individual parts.

The support element 5 is an integral part of the product carrier. On the support element 5 the goods or articles to be presented are placed or provided. It essentially consists of a profile plate 1 and the reinforcement profiles 4 , The profile plate is made of flexible, vacuum-produced plastic.

The profile plate 1 has a rectangular wave shape, so that there are raised sections 2 and trough-shaped depressions 3 alternate. The wave-like shape means that less material is required than with a solid panel. On the one hand, this saves material costs, on the other hand, the weight is advantageously reduced. Since the channels are very narrow, the raised sections of the profile plate form an almost flat surface on which goods can be placed and presented without tipping over. In addition, the channels give the profile plate a high level of flexural strength, so that even heavy objects can be placed on the support element.

Since the profile plate be made of flexible material stands, it is surprisingly possible to wind it up on a roll and thus transport it in a particularly space-saving manner.

Spaces are formed by two channels on the underside of the support element, which act as guides 6 for tubes 7 serve. On these tubes 7 lies the support element 5 with the leadership 6 on and is held so. The tubes 7 are on the back wall 12 attached to the goods carrier.

The stability of the support element is increased in that U-shaped reinforcing profiles are placed on the profile plate 4 be put on. These also serve the profile plate 1 to complete aesthetically. That the back wall 12 facing reinforcement profile 4 has openings 8th through which the mounting tubes 7 be pushed.

To adapt the support element to different product carriers and, if necessary, to reduce the depth, is for the profile plate 1 perpendicular to the gutters 3 a predetermined breaking point 10 intended. In this way, the goods carrier can be easily redesigned.

In order to enlarge the product carrier if necessary, two profile plates can be used 1 through the U-shaped connecting element 11 be connected to each other.

2 shows a schematic representation of a section of the product carrier from the front in a spatial view. Here are on a back wall 12 an upper and a lower support element of the goods carrier 5 assembled. The tubes are used for fastening 7 (Not shown). The lower support element is straight. There are footbridges in the channels 9 used to fix the articles on the support element or to visually differentiate between products or product groups. The upper support element 5 on the other hand is curved. The curved course creates an unusual, optical design effect that attracts the special attention of the consumer. Because of the gradients that occur in this way, the articles on display are held by the holding bars 9 held in place.

Between the two carrying elements 5 the bend also results in different clear heights. This makes it possible to present items with different heights in an aesthetic way.

On this way is simple and inexpensive to manufacture, but surprising variable, functional and visually appealing product carrier proposed.
