Definitions

  • the invention is directed to an illuminated sales shelf insert for inserting into conventional sales shelves and for illuminating sales items presented on the device, in particular in separate attachments.
  • an illuminated sales shelf is known from DE-A-32 24 709. This consists of a frame that can be hung between two cheeks with a translucent ceiling and, if necessary, base plate.
  • the frame side walls are opaque. Unlit shelves usually found in shops or department stores cannot be retrofitted with them. In particular, it is not possible to equip existing sales shelves with an illuminated shelf for products only in certain areas. Another disadvantage is that the opaque frame means that the side surfaces of the shelf of the sales shelf do not emit light.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a solution that enables flexible lighting of sales shelf areas while maintaining a flat footprint and without covering the front edge of the shelf.
  • this object is achieved according to the invention by an essentially cuboid, low-height housing made of translucent material with at least one inside parallel to the front longitudinal side surface in the region of the front longitudinal region and in the region of the laterally adjoining transverse side surfaces The interior of the lighting fixture is bent back.
  • sales shelves can be illuminated in some areas without price or information labels arranged in the area of the front edge of the shelf being covered.
  • Individual, separate inserts into which the products to be presented can be placed can be placed on the sales shelf insert.
  • the length of the shelf insert is to be designed according to the desired number of items to be presented next to each other and corresponds to the desired placement width on the shelf.
  • the width of the shelf insert should correspond to the depth of conventional shelves.
  • the invention provides that the lighting fixture is designed as a neon tube.
  • Neon tubes have the advantage that they can also be colored and can be produced in any length.
  • the invention provides that the cuboid housing can be assembled from a plurality of individual bodies of the same length and height that are matched to one another in a modular manner to form a uniform sales shelf insert with a flat contact surface.
  • the use of the store shelves is easy to transport and can be flexibly adapted to different shelf depths. Depending on the shelf depth, different individual bodies are strung together.
  • the invention provides in an expedient further development that the individual bodies have depressions in the region of their top and / or bottom side, at least in regions and / or have connecting tongues which protrude on the opposite longitudinal side and are formed corresponding to the depressions.
  • the invention is characterized in that at least the individual body provided with a luminous body is made of a translucent plastic.
  • the invention also provides, in the sense of a modular construction, that the width of the individual bodies is coordinated with one another in such a way that they are individually or in combination exactly the same depth Fill out shelves.
  • the invention also provides openings in the longitudinal side surfaces of the individual bodies which are not provided with the luminous element, for making electrical connections.
  • Fig. 1 shows a substantially cuboid, translucent housing 1, which is composed of three individual bodies 2, 3, 4.
  • the individual bodies 2, 3, 4 are matched to one another in such a way that there is a continuous, flat footprint 5 on the top of the housing.
  • a dashed light fixture 8 is arranged on the inside parallel to the latter, which is bent back at right angles in the area of the transverse side surfaces 9, 10 in the direction of the housing interior.
  • the lighting fixture is connected to a voltage source 13 via electrical connections 11, 12.
  • the lighting fixture 8 may be a neon tube of small diameter.
  • the housing 1 has a height of about 2 to 3 cm.
  • only the individual body 2 facing the viewer in the use position on the sales shelf is equipped with a lighting fixture.
  • the sales shelf insert 1 is placed in a sales shelf in such a way that the front longitudinal side surface 7 is aligned with the shelf front wall.
  • At least the individual body 2 is made of a translucent material, in particular plastic.
  • all the individual bodies 2, 3, 4 are made of such a material, so that the sales shelf insert 1 presents itself as a uniform luminous element when the lighting element 8 is switched on.
  • the depressions 14 and 15 and the connecting tongues 16, 17 to be accommodated therein are matched to one another in such a way that, after the individual bodies 2, 3 and 4 have been pushed together, a continuous flat footprint results. Furthermore, the width of the individual bodies 2, 3 and 4 are coordinated with one another in such a way that they individually or in combination exactly fill the depth of conventional sales shelves. It is thus possible that the sales shelf insert 1 consists of a single body as a whole.
  • the lighting fixture 8 can also be a fluorescent tube or also consist of individual light bulb-like lighting elements which are arranged in the inner region of the side surfaces 7, 9 and 10.
