Description

The present invention relates to a showcase.

A display case can generally be understood to mean a device for storing and displaying objects (exhibition objects). Examples of exhibits are art objects, scientific exhibits and historical objects. Showcases are primarily used in schools or museums, but can in principle also be installed in private households or in companies.

When used, showcases fulfill several functions. On the one hand showcases protect the contained objects from dust, dirt, theft, mechanical impact and other environmental influences. On the other hand, the exhibited objects can be viewed from outside the showcase. For this purpose, it is usually necessary that the showcase at least partially made of a visible light spectrum or parts thereof transparent material, such as glass.

Showcases with a framework that has one or more frames for a window pane are generally known. Each window is held by the respective frame. In the case of rectangular window panes, the frame generally has four frame parts which hold the window pane at one edge in each case. The frame parts usually form a closed frame around the window pane.

• - Um das Bestücken der Vitrine zu erleichtern soll der Zugang großzügig ausgestaltet sein, also eine große Öffnung zu dem Inneren der Vitrine bieten.
• - Der Zugang soll zudem auf einfache Art und Weise verfügbar sein. Mit anderen Worten soll das Öffnen der Vitrine problemlos erfolgen können.
• - Andererseits soll, sofern möglich, der Zugang für den Beobachter verborgen bleiben. Dies dient unter anderem dem Diebstahlschutz, da auf diese Weise der Zugriff auf die Ausstellungsobjekte erschwert wird.
• - Die Vitrine soll außerdem zu möglichst großen Teilen transparent sein, damit die Ausstellungsobjekte nach Möglichkeit aus allen Blickrichtungen ungehindert betrachtet werden können. Diese Anforderung wird auch an die Zugriffsöffnung gestellt.

In order to be able to arrange objects to be exhibited in a showcase, it is necessary for the showcase to allow access to its interior. The requirements to be met include in particular the following:

• - To facilitate the loading of the showcase, the access should be generously designed, so provide a large opening to the interior of the showcase.
• - Access should also be easily available. In other words, opening the display case should be easy.
• - On the other hand, if possible, the access for the observer should remain hidden. Among other things, this serves to prevent theft, as this makes access to the exhibits more difficult.
• - The showcase should also be transparent as much as possible, so that the exhibits can be viewed from all directions unhindered if possible. This request is also made to the access opening.

In summary, access on the one hand should not therefore reduce the transparent surface of the showcase, but on the other hand should be as large as possible and be opened and closed without difficulty and yet be hidden.

The object of the invention was to provide a showcase available, which largely meets these partially conflicting requirements.

This object is achieved by a showcase according to claim 1.

The display case according to the invention has at least one stationary, from an open position into a closed position and back movable first window pane and a first window pane in the closed position bordering the first frame. In the open position, the first window pane at least partially exposes an access opening bounded by the first frame to the interior of the showcase. The first frame has at least one groove enclosing the first window pane at a first edge section and at least one slot-shaped through opening, in which the first window pane is bordered in the closed position at a second edge section and through which the first window pane can be displaced into the open position.

A window pane is generally understood to be a body made of a material which is transparent to the visible light or parts of this spectrum, the dimension of which is substantially greater in two dimensions than in the third dimension. For a window of dimensions H • B • D, the thickness D is substantially smaller than the height H or the width B (D << H; D << B). Typically, the thickness is in the range of a few millimeters, whereas the height and width are usually several centimeters, decimeters or meters. In other words, a window pane is a flat structure with a main extension in the height and width directions. If this is referred to as a shape of the window pane, then this means the contour of the planar structure. In this sense, the window usually has a rectangular basic shape, but may for example also be triangular, trapezoidal, or generally polygonal, partially rounded, oval or round.

A standing window pane is understood in particular to mean a window pane which is arranged with an edge on a support when used as intended. It may in particular be vertical, but also inclined, for example, up to 30 ° from the vertical. In contrast, a lying window pane is in particular a window pane which, when used as intended, is arranged with one of its parallel large-area side on a support.

In the opening position of the first window pane, access to the interior of the showcase is possible so that exhibits can be removed or placed, for example. The access opening is essentially delimited by the first frame and thereby falls correspondingly large. In the closed position, the access opening is closed by the first window, so that access from the outside is prevented. To open the access opening, the first window pane is moved through the slot-shaped through opening. In this way, the first window pane passes from the closed position to the open position.

As described above, both the at least one groove and the at least one slot-shaped passage opening engage the first window pane at a respective edge section. For this purpose, the groove and the passage opening are each formed so as to prevent or restrict a movement of the first window pane perpendicular to its areal extent. In the case of the groove, the first window pane, for example, rest with an edge in the groove base and is prevented by the groove flanks on said movement.

The groove may be formed in a one-piece profile element of the frame (e.g., U-profile rail or as a groove in a frame part) or in a frame part composed of a plurality of elements (e.g., ledges, L-profiles, hollow profiles). The frame parts and profile elements include in particular horizontal rails and vertical elements, the latter elements need not extend exactly vertically but as well as the disc may be inclined, for example, up to 30 ° from the vertical. A groove generally has a groove base and two groove flanks which run in particular perpendicular to the groove base.

In advantageous developments, the first frame has a horizontally extending lower rail with a groove enclosing the first window pane. The lower rail has a substantially upwardly open groove, the orientation corresponding to a possible inclination of the first window pane. A lower rail is particularly suitable for the guidance of the first window in the transition between closed and open position. As described above, the first window pane can advantageously rest in the groove bottom of the groove of the lower rail, so that the first window pane can be moved along the groove when it is to be moved from the closed position into the open position or back. Due to the horizontal course of the groove, gravity must not be overcome either in one direction or the other.

Advantageously, the first frame has a first open vertical element. An "open vertical element" has a slot-shaped passage opening. The open vertical element promotes the stability of the first frame and the display case and at the same time allows the passage of the first window pane. The slot-shaped through opening holds on the one hand the first window pane in the closed position, similar to the groove flanks of the above-described groove. On the other hand, the passage opening allows the passage of the first window pane through the open vertical element, for which reason the passage opening is dimensioned correspondingly to the dimensions (height and thickness) of the first window pane. A substantially vertically extending slot-shaped through opening allows, in particular together with the lower, horizontally extending rail, an easy transfer of the first window pane from the closed position into a first open position and back by an exclusively horizontal movement of the first window pane.

In advantageous developments, the first frame has a horizontally extending upper rail with a groove enclosing the first window pane. The upper rail is advantageously arranged with respect to the first window pane opposite the lower rail. By the upper rail, the first window is additionally guided when moving between closed and open position. In addition, the upper rail with its groove of the first window gives additional support in the closed position.

The first frame may have a second open or closed vertical element. A "closed vertical element" has a groove enclosing the window pane with a groove base. The second vertical element is advantageously arranged with respect to the window pane opposite to the first vertical element. The vertical elements are preferably arranged substantially parallel to one another. Through the groove or the passage opening, the first window pane is additionally held in the closed position. If the second is an open vertical element with a through opening, then the first window pane can be moved by the second vertical element from the closed position in the opposite direction to the first open position into a second open position.

Preferably, however, the second vertical element is closed. The groove bottom of the groove of the closed vertical element constitutes a stop for the first window pane. In its closed position, the first window pane rests with one edge against the groove bottom of the groove of the second vertical element. Particularly preferably, the first frame has a lower rail, an open vertical element, an upper rail, and a closed vertical element, which in this order circumferentially arranged form the first frame.

The showcase preferably has at least one post. Under a post is generally understood a rod-shaped, vertically arranged component. A post can basically form one or more vertical elements. Each of these vertical elements can be closed or open, as long as the display case has a total of at least one open vertical element. For example, a post can form a closed and an open vertical element for two frames. The showcase preferably has a plurality of posts, in particular at least three.

The display case according to the invention preferably has a plurality of frames, each with a window pane. As a result, the exhibits can be viewed from several sides, for example. A window pane can basically be opened, that is, it can be moved from a closed position into an open position, or it can not be opened. However, the display cabinet according to the invention has at least one openable window pane overall.

In an advantageous development, the display case has a first post which forms the at least one open vertical element and has a square tube and a flat profile, between which the slot-shaped passage opening of the at least one open vertical element is formed. The use of a square tube and a flat profile is particularly well suited for the formation of a slot-shaped passage opening, since the two elements can be arranged at a distance from each other and thus directly form a slot-shaped passage opening without further measures. Preferably, the square tube and the flat profile are connected to each other end.

Preferably, a side surface of the square tube is aligned parallel to a side surface of the flat profile. The first window pane is advantageously bordered between these side surfaces when used as intended. In this way, a defined hold of the first window pane in the closed position and secure guidance of the first window pane during the transfer between closed position and open position are ensured.

Advantageously, the display case has a second post which forms the closed vertical element for the first frame and a closed vertical element for a second frame and has a square tube and a first angle profile, between which two grooves for the first window pane and a second window pane are formed. The second post is thereby involved in the enclosure of two window panes, which simplifies the construction of the showcase and reduces the number of components required for the showcase. The grooves are formed by a spacing of the square tube to both legs of the first angle profile, wherein in each case a groove between a leg of the first angle section and the square tube is formed. This construction of the second post is inexpensive and therefore inexpensive to implement. Preferably, the square tube and the first angle section are connected to one another at the end.

The display case preferably has a third post which forms a closed vertical element for the second frame and a closed vertical element for a third frame and has a square tube and a first angle profile, between which two grooves for the second window pane and a third window pane are formed. The third post is similar in construction to the second post. Also, the third post is involved in the enclosure of two windows, which further simplifies the construction of the showcase.

Preferably, the square tube and the first angle element are connected to one another at the end.

Advantageously, the showcase on a fourth post, which forms an open vertical element for the third frame and a square tube and a flat profile, between which a slot-shaped passage opening for the third window pane is formed, and forms a closed vertical element for a fourth frame and a having a fourth window pane encompassing groove. The fourth post allows through the slot-shaped passage opening a movement of the third window pane from a closed position to an open position. Preferably, the square tube and the flat profile are connected to each other end.

The first post preferably forms a closed vertical element for a fourth frame, wherein a groove for a fourth window pane is formed between the square tube and a leg of an L-profile adjoining the square tube. As a result, the first post has a slot-shaped passage opening for a first window pane and a groove for the fourth window pane. The L-profile forms the bottom of the groove with one of its legs and with the second Leg a groove flank. Advantageously, the L-profile separates the two panes from each other, so that they do not come into contact with each other. For this purpose, the L-profile can be arranged so that a surface of the L-profile opposite the groove bottom terminates flush with the square tube and the surface thus formed forms one side of the slot-shaped through-opening. In this case, separates the leg of the L-profile, which forms the groove bottom, the two windows from each other.

The fourth post is preferably similar in construction to the first post. Advantageously, in the fourth post between the square tube and a leg of an adjoining the square tube L-profile a groove for a fourth window pane is formed.

In a particularly preferred embodiment, the display case thus has four posts, which are formed as described above. The display case has four frames, each with a window - a total of four - on. Of the four panes, two are movable from a closed position to an open position, namely, the first pane through the first pillar and the third pane through the fourth pillar. The second and the fourth window pane are bordered by grooves and preferably adhesively bonded to their respective frame or parts thereof. Sticking is possible in principle with all windows of the showcase, in which a movement between a closed position and an open position is not provided.

In this way, the four frames form a closed contour. The contour extends from the first post along the first frame to the second post, from there along the second frame to the third post, further along the third frame to the fourth post, and thence along the fourth frame back to the first post.

In other embodiments, posts may be identical to each other. In particular, each post may be configured as the first post described above. The posts are arranged in turn each rotated by 90 ° to the previous post. In such an embodiment, each window pane is apparent. Identical parts of a device usually reduce the manufacturing cost of the device and simplify the structure of the same.

In order to prevent outsiders being able to recognize how the display case is opened, in advantageous developments a removable cover is provided on at least one outer surface of at least the first post, in particular on the outer surfaces of the flat profile and / or the L-profile the slot-shaped passage opening covered. In order to transfer the window pane from the closed position to the open position, the cover must first be removed. Subsequently, the window pane can be moved through the slot-shaped passage opening. A cover can basically be arranged on each post. Preferably, a cover is provided on each post.

The cover is preferably formed from a first angle element, in particular from an angle plate. The first angle element preferably has two legs, which may lie on outer surfaces of the post and thereby do not apply much.

To be able to fasten the cover to the post in a detachable manner, it is provided in advantageous developments that at least one outer surface of at least the first post has at least one depression in which a magnetic element, in particular a magnetic strip, is arranged. Through the depression, the magnetic element does not support or does not project beyond the outer surface. The cover or the first angle element consists of a magnetizable material or has at least at a position corresponding to the magnetic strip portions of magnetizable material. The magnetic element can thus ensure a detachable fastening of the cover to the post or posts without visible fastening means.

In advantageous developments, a securing element is provided which can be fastened to or in the first post and / or the fourth post and blocks movement of the first and / or third window pane from the closed position into the open position. Alternatively or additionally, the securing element can also be used in the lower rail and / or in the upper rail. In this way it is prevented that the respectively blocked window disk unintentionally gets into motion or is opened by unauthorized persons. In order to move the blocked window pane from the closed position to the open position, the securing element must first be removed. The securing element is preferably rod-shaped, so that the blocked window pane is not blocked selectively, but over a substantial part of its height or even over the entire height. A bar-shaped securing element having a rectangular cross section, which is arranged in the slot-shaped passage opening, has proved to be particularly advantageous. The securing element is preferably flat with one or two opposing surfaces on one or both inner surfaces of the slot-shaped passage opening and thus has a defined seat. One of the window facing surface of the fuse element blocks the movement thereof.

If the first or the third window pane is moved into the open position through the passage opening in the open vertical element assigned to it, it is initially partly outside the first or third frame. If it is moved in the same direction, for example, the respective window pane can be completely removed from its frame and the display case and stored in another location until it is put back into its frame. However, such storage is cumbersome and time consuming. In advantageous developments of the invention, therefore, a bearing device is provided which comprises at least one horizontal guide groove having a groove for temporarily storing the first and / or third window pane in the open position and can be connected to the first and / or fourth post such that the groove engages in the guide rail of the bearing device is aligned with the groove in the lower rail of the first and / or third frame. The guide rail thus forms an extension of the lower rail. The first and / or third window pane can thereby be moved out of the closed position through the slot-shaped opening of the first and / or fourth post and then onto the guide rail. On the guide rail or in the groove thereof, the first and / or third window pane can be stored until it is moved back into the closed position. The showcase can also have a plurality of storage facilities, in particular one for each openable window pane.

In the intermediate storage of the first and / or third window pane in the guide rail of the bearing device, it is desirable for the window pane to continue to assume a relatively stable position, so that there is no risk of the window pane dropping out of the groove, for example. In advantageous developments, it is therefore provided that the first and / or the third window has a width B and the groove of the guide rail of the bearing means a stop at a distance A <B along the guide rail of the first and / or the fourth post. In this way, the window pane stops in an open position in which it is only partially outside the frame. An edge portion of the window pane remains in the first and / or the fourth post. Overall, the window pane is therefore bordered and held at least by the guide rail and the first and / or the fourth post in the open position. Alternatively or additionally, the stop can also be adjustable with respect to its distance A. In this way, a single storage device for windows of different widths can be used.

Generally, the bearing means may be connectable to each post having a slot-shaped passage opening such that the groove in the guide rail of the bearing means is aligned with the groove in the lower rail of the respective adjacent post.

In order to accommodate the weight of the window pane, the storage facility advantageously has a support. The support is preferably located at an end remote from the respective post to increase the stability of the storage device.

When transferring the first and / or third window pane between the closed position and the open position, the window pane preferably slides on one of its edges. However, the edges of a windowpane can be very sensitive. In order to facilitate the movement of the window pane and protect the edges is provided in advantageous developments that the lower rail of the first and / or third frame and / or the guide rail has a slideway, preferably made of PTFE.

In principle, any material which has sufficient transparency in the visible range of the light is suitable as the material for each window pane. At least the first window pane preferably consists essentially of glass. At least the first window pane may be provided with an edge protector and / or a foil which is not made of glass. Compared to transparent plastics, glass has a higher stability (strength), which also gives the showcase a valuable appearance. In addition, glass provides increased theft protection over plastics because cutting glass is difficult and requires special tools. Preferably, each window glass.

At least the first frame preferably consists essentially of steel. The non-steel components may include, for example, the slideway, sealing elements and the securing element. Steel gives the showcase a sufficient stability and is also a costly material a preferred material for the first frame. Preferably, all frames consist essentially of steel.

In advantageous developments, at least the first frame is substantially rectangular. Preferably, all frames are rectangular. Also, at least the first window pane is preferably rectangular.

In order to protect the exhibition objects which can be arranged in the showcase from environmental influences, it is provided in advantageous developments that the frames have a sealing element, in particular made of felt, which seals the window panes in the closed position relative to the frame. For this purpose, the sealing element is preferably located in the intermediate spaces between the window pane and parts of the frame, in particular it lies between the flanks of the groove and the at least one slot-shaped through opening on the one hand and the flat surface of the window panes on the other hand. Very particular preference is respectively opposite sealing elements on the inside and the outside of the window pane.

So that the exhibits can also be viewed from above, or so that additional light can shine into the interior of the showcase, the showcase preferably has a cover disc which is arranged at least on the upper rails of the frames.

In order to prevent slippage of the cover plate is provided in advantageous developments that the cover plate by means of at least a second angle element, in particular at least one angle plate, is attached. The second angle element preferably has three legs, of which a first leg rests flat on the upper rail and is connected thereto. A third leg rests flat on the cover disc and holds it down. Optionally, the third leg can be glued to the cover plate. Alternatively, the third leg is spaced and parallel to the surface of the cover plate to avoid damage to the cover plate by the second angle element. A second leg connects the first and the third leg of the shape such that their planes are offset by at least the thickness of the cover disk.

Advantageously, the showcase has a substantially rectangular floor plan.

In advantageous developments, the showcase has at least one illumination device. The lighting device may include lighting elements such as light bulbs or LEDs or LED strips. In addition, the lighting device may have a power supply or a transformer. The lighting elements can advantageously be arranged or integrated on or in the frame and in particular on or in the upper rail. This allows a uniform illumination of the interior of the showcase.
