Description

"Front element for product presentation on sales shelves"

In supermarkets, goods in packaging are presented on shelves with shelves and/or perforated hook walls. The customer uses these shelves and needs to be able to adequately identify the goods offered in the packaging. For this reason, the corresponding packaging has transparent cutouts that allow the goods to be at least partially identified. In order to make the goods more easily recognizable and understandable to the customer, the goods offered in the packaging are sometimes also presented firmly anchored to the shelf. However, this means that sales space is lost.

The object of the invention is to create a sales aid that can be used in conjunction with sales shelves, which supplements the sales shelf while requiring little space, but does not impair the sales area.

The inventive task is solved with an attachment element for the presentation of goods on sales shelves, which is characterized by a frame that can be fixed in place, in which a plate element made of transparent material can be moved to accommodate goods to be attached to it.

Such an attachment element according to the invention is either attached to the sales shelf itself or to the floor and/or ceiling of the sales room in the area of the sales shelf. Such an attachment element is expediently adapted to the grid dimensions of the sales shelves. In use, such an offset element is arranged at least in part in front of a sales shelf. This partially open attachment element allows a view through the frame of the usually packaged goods presented on the sales shelf, since the plate element is also made of transparent material. The goods that are offered in packaged form behind it on the sales shelf are now at least partially anchored to this plate element. Access to these packaged goods is possible in every area, since the plate element can be moved sideways in the frame.

Preferably, in such an attachment element according to the invention, the plate element is designed to be approximately one third of the width of the frame. If a complete frame is used, the plate element is guided in an upper and a lower rail, which are connected to one another by the side frames of the frame. Above the frame, a panel serving as a lighting surface or a reflecting surface can be provided. The lower area can be equipped with a base panel.

However, it is also possible to simply use a frame

from a lower and an upper rail which are attached to a sales shelf or the like, whereby

the upper rail is set back in depth compared to the lower rail. A plate element is used here that is angled in the upper area and engages with the rails that are set back in depth.

The invention is explained in more detail below using illustrated embodiments. They show:

Illustration of a front element arranged directly on a sales shelf.

First, reference is made to Figures 1 and 2. A frame-like front element 1 is arranged in front of a sales shelf, designated overall by the number 6, on which goods can be presented in compartments or on perforated walls. A plate element 2 made of transparent plastic can be moved in an upper rail 11 and a lower rail 12 of this front element, to the front of which the marks designated by the number are anchored. The sales shelf behind it and its goods can be seen through such a front element.

In the upper area of the frame 1 there is a panel 3, which serves as an advertising area and/or lighting area. The lower area of the frame 1 is closed with a base panel 5.

Another embodiment of a front element on a sales shelf 5 is shown in Fig. 3. An upper rail 11' and a lower rail 12' are offset in the table and fastened to the rack so as to be adapted to the sales shelf. A plate element 2' made of transparent material, which is angled in the upper area, is guided in these two rails so that it can be moved laterally. The goods to be presented are anchored on its front side and are offered in packaged form on the sales shelf 5 arranged behind it.
