Definitions

  • This invention relates to temporary merchandising displays which are economical to produce and is well adapted for use in connection with heavy products such as soft drinks packaged in multiple cell carriers.
  • U.S. Patent 4,182,244 discloses a display device of modular construction which includes a plurality of shelf units adapted for stacking on atop the other. This construction utilizes heavy duty paperboard providing a free-standing display device but does not provide a base panel and rear panel in accordance with the present invention.
  • U.S. Patent No. 3,273,272 also discloses a display device which is formed from paper board.
  • the device comprises a free standing display which incorporates both a base panel and a rear panel. While the construction includes supporting panels for both the base and rear panels comprising upright and horizontal supports, these are not so arranged as to prevent swinging movement of the rear panel in a direction away from the base panel.
  • the present invention prevents the relative swinging movement between such panels so enhancing the stability of the display. This is particularly important in view of the fact that the base panel of the display is provided to receive a stack of merchandise which puts a load on the rear panel tending to cause the relative swinging movement between the panels.
  • a merchandising display arranged for mounting on a support surface and comprising a base panel, a rear panel foldably secured directly to an edge of said base panel and extending generally upwardly therefrom a pair of horizontal supports secured respectively to the sides of said base panel and disposed underneath said base panel, and a pair of upright supports secured respectively to the sides of said rear panel and disposed behind said rear panel, said horizontal supports and said upright supports being movable independently of each other, characterised in that each of said horizontal and upright supports comprises a pair of spaced substantially parallel supporting panels, the lower edges of said upright supports being disposed in the same plane as the lower surfaces of said horizontal supports for preventing swinging movement of said rear panel about said edge of said base panel in a direction away from said base panel due to engagement with said support surface and by means interlocking said horizontal supports and by means interlocking said vertical supports.
  • FIG. 1 is a plan view of a blank from which a merchandising display is formed according to this invention
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing formation of the display
  • FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a set-up display
  • FIG. 4 is a fragmentary view of the partially formed upper portion of the display
  • FIG. 5 is a plan view of a set-up display taken from the rear
  • FIG. 6 is a plan view of a set-up display taken from the bottom.
  • the numeral 1 designates the base panel of the display to the rear edge of which rear panel 2 is foldably joined along fold line 3.
  • Horizontal supports indicated generally by the numberals 4 and 5 are foldably joined respectively to the side edges of base panel 1 along fold lines 6 and 7.
  • upright supports indicated generally by the numerals 8 and 9 are foldably joined respectively to the side edges of rear panel 2 along fold lines 10 and 11.
  • a front support indicated generally by the numeral 12 is foldably joined to the front edge of base panel 1 along fold line 13 and top panel 14 is foldably joined to the upper edge of rear panel 2 along fold line 15.
  • horizontal support 4 is provided with supporting panels 16, 17, and 18 which are interconnected by fold lines 19 and 20.
  • supporting panels 16 and 17 are slots 21 and 22.
  • Horizontal support 5 is similar to that just described and includes supporting panels 23, 24, and 25 which are interconnected by means of fold lines 26 and 27. Slots 28 and 29 are formed in supporting panels 23 and 24.
  • Upright support 8 is provided with supporting panels 30, 31 and 32 which are interconnected by means of fold lines 33 and 34 and, additionally, slot 35 is formed in supporting panels 30 and 31 and slot 36 is formed between the upper portions of supporting panels 30 and 31.
  • upright support 9 is provided with supporting panels 37, 38 and 39 which are interconnected by means of fold lines 40 and 41. Also slot 42 is formed in supporting panels 37 and 38 and slot 43 is formed intermediate the upper portions of supporting panels 37 and 38.
  • front support 12 In order to provide additional strength for the front of the display, front support 12 is provided and includes supporting panels 44, 45, and 46 which are interconnected by means of fold lines 47 and 48. Slots 49 and 50 are formed along the upper edge of supporting panel 46. Additionally tabs 51 and 52 are foldably joined respectively to the end edges of supporting panel 44 along fold lines 53 and 54.
  • top support 14 which comprises panels 14a and 14b hinged together along fold line 55.
  • Panel 14a includes slots 56 and 57.
  • tabs 58 and 59 are foldably joined respectively to the end edges of top panel 14b along fold lines 60 and 61.
  • the display blank is sometimes too large to be conveniently manufactured.
  • the blank is simply produced in two pieces with the severence point being along fold line 3.
  • the two pieces are simply joined along the severence line by means of adhesive tape or the like.
  • Upright supports 8 and 9 are then formed in a similar fashion whereby supporting panels 30, 31 and 32 as well as supporting panels 37, 38 and 39 are folded generally upwardly with respect to rear panel 2 along their respective fold lines.
  • panels 30, 32, 37 and 39 are folded into positions parallel to each other and panels 2, 31 and 38 are likewise folded into positions of parallel orientation so as to form tubular configurations.
  • reinforcing rib 62 is then inserted into position whereby slots 63 and 64 are moved respectively into slots 22 and 29. In this manner the upper surface of reinforcing rib 62 assumes an abutting relationship with the underside of base panel 1.
  • reinforcing rib 65 is provided as a means to interlock upright supports 8 and 9. Specifically slots 66 and 67 of reinforcing rib 65 are inserted into slots 35 and 42 respectively whereby the inner edge of reinforcing rib 65 assumes an abutting relationship with the rear surface of rear panel 2. Also each end edge of reinforcing ribs 62 and 65 forms an abutting relationship with the adjacent supporting panel and thereby provides additional display stability.
  • front support 12 is rotated generally upwardly of base panel 1 into a tubular configuration and slots 49 and 50 are inserted respectively into slots 21 and 28. Simultaneously with this operation, tabs 51 and 52 are tucked into positions of flat face contracting relation with the inside surfaces of supporting panels 18 and 25 respectively.
  • panels 44 and 46 are disposed parallel to each other as are panels 1 and 45. In addition the upper surface of supporting panel 46 is disposed in abutting relationship with the underside of base panel 1.
  • tip support 14 is folded generally upwardly along fold line 15 and tabs 58 and 59 are folded generally inwardly aong fold lines 60 and 61 respectively. Then slots 56 and 57 are inserted into into locking engagement respectively with slots 36 and 43. After completion of these operations, tabs 60 and 61 are disposed respectively in face contacting relation with the inner surfaces of supporting panels 32 and 39 and the outer corner portions of top panel 14a are disposed respectively in face contacting relation with the inner surfaces of supporting panels 31 and 38.
  • the partially formed blank is inverted and the rear panel 2 together with the structure associated therewith is elevated along fold line 3 into an upright position. The display then appears as shown in FIG. 3.
  • the display After the display is fully set up, it can be easily adapted to various merchandising requirements especially in connection with retail grocery store operations.
  • the display can be placed in any temporary location in the store and then loaded with a product to be displayed such as cartons containing multiple soft drinks. Since the display is in effect interlocked as the critical points of stress, twisting and tearing of the display is prevented.
  • reinforcing ribs 62 and 65 act to prevent sagging of base panel 1 and rear panel 2 respectively and the weight of the product on base panel 1 causes a tension force across fold line 3 which in turn aids in preventing rear panel 2 from folding backwards.
  • the lower edges of upright supports 8 and 9 are disposed in the same plane as the lower surfaces of horizontal supports 4 and 5 the display is further maintained in a set up condition since rear panel 2 is in effect prevented from rotating away from base panel 1 and out of its proper position.
  • a merchandising display is provided which is economical to produce and well adapted for use in connection with temporary merchandising promotions and at the same time is extremely strong and reliable.
