Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sign holder for advertising signs, price tags or the like.
  • a sign holder for advertising signs, price tags or the like.
  • a plug-in frame with a rear wall, on the front of which the sign is to be attached or attached, and on which at least two fastening elements arranged symmetrically with respect to an axis are arranged such that two with their backs facing each other, the same sign carriers can be connected to each other.
  • a sign carrier in the form of a stretching frame for advertising signs, price tags or the like
  • clip-like assembly parts can be connected to connecting elements which match the fastening elements, these assembly parts being designed for a clamp or snap fastening on shelf rails of shop shelves or the like. It is not possible to attach the signs or sign carriers to grids, for example shopping carts customary in supermarkets.
  • the bayonet-type fastening elements which are preferably provided in these known plug-in frames for advertising signs require a relative rotation of the parts to be connected, namely the plug-in frame and a separate mounting part.
  • such a relative rotation is impractical and often even impracticable for label carriers for shopping carts.
  • DE-A-3 502 791 finally describes a system for advertising media on shopping trolleys, in which two advertising or label supports, with their rear sides facing one another, are attached to both sides of the grille of a shopping trolley.
  • these known advertising media have fastening elements in the form of four horizontally running slots, in which fastening sleeves and fastening screws are received, with the aid of which the two advertising media provided on both sides of the grille are connected to one another.
  • a disadvantage of this known construction is that separate fastening parts, namely sleeves and screws, are also required, so that, above all, the assembly of such advertising media is cumbersome and time-consuming, apart from the fact that the separate fastening parts must also be kept in stock.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of designing a sign carrier of the type specified in such a way that simple, rapid attachment to lattice structures or the like. Discontinuous walls, in particular to shopping carts, is made possible without separate fastening or mounting parts or holders.
  • the sign carrier of the type mentioned above is accordingly characterized in that the mutually symmetrical Fastening elements are designed as one-piece, complementary latching or snap-in connection parts with the rear wall, at least one of which projects at least in the working position from the rear wall to the rear, whereby two identical label carriers can be coupled directly to one another.
  • two label holders for example in the form of plug-in frames, in particular made of plastic, with the interposition of the discontinuous wall, for example the bars of a shopping trolley, can be coupled directly to one another by simply plugging the snap-in or snap-on connection parts, of course on the desired advertising, price or other signs can be attached to both sign carriers, for example inserted, so that these signs or the like point to the front or to the back.
  • Due to the mirror-image arrangement of the corresponding locking or snap connection parts it is also not necessary to keep two different types of label holders in stock for coupling and mounting in pairs, for example on a shopping trolley, rather identically designed label holders can be coupled together in pairs. As mentioned, this coupling takes place directly between the label holders, and thus on the shopping cart, etc. there are no separate mounting parts or holders for attachment to the shopping cart etc. necessary.
  • the latching or snap-in connection parts protrude through the openings in the discontinuous wall, for example through the grid openings, with the coupling of these latching or Snap connection parts, for example, an elastic bracing of the rear walls of the can both shield carriers on the bars or generally on the discontinuous wall.
  • latching or snap connection parts in view are designed in accordance with the shape of the openings in the discontinuous wall that they penetrate, so as to bring about a positive positional fixation of the label carrier on the discontinuous wall.
  • At least one of the associated snap-in or snap-in connection parts protrudes from the rear wall by a corresponding distance, corresponding to the thickness of the discontinuous wall to be penetrated, in order to match the corresponding snap-in or snap-in connection part of the other label holder of the pair on the other side of the discontinuous wall.
  • a certain sign carrier is suitable, in which the latching or snap-on connection parts protrude a certain distance from the rear of the rear wall, in each case only for a certain wall or grid thickness.
  • a particularly advantageous embodiment of the label carrier according to the invention is characterized in that at least one of the latching or snap-in connection parts is attached to a tab or tongue which can be elastically deflected from the rear wall.
  • the opening can be bridged in a thicker or less thick discontinuous wall or lattice construction.
  • one of the complementary locking or snap connection parts is hook-shaped and the associated other locking or snap connection part is formed by an opening.
  • the hook-shaped locking or snap connection part can be designed so that a simple demolding of the label holder is possible.
  • the hook-shaped latching or snap-on connection part can be barb-shaped, for example, the barb being forced through the opening on the other label carrier using the material elasticity and finally being latched on the opening edge on the other side.
  • An advantageous embodiment, in which the material is less stressed when the connection is made, is characterized in that the opening extends to a wider opening area through which the hook-shaped, end view T-shaped snap-in or snap-on connection part can be pushed through when connecting two label carriers, adjoining narrower opening area into which the hook-shaped latching or snap connection part with its web can be moved due to the material elasticity.
  • a particularly simple embodiment in terms of assembly is also obtained if the complementary latching or snap-in connection parts are designed like a push button.
  • An embodiment which is particularly suitable for small signs is characterized in that the push-button-like latching or snap-on connection parts are not round in view, in particular rectangular, and adjoin one another on the axis.
  • the out-of-round design of the latching or snap-in connection parts prevents the shield carriers which are coupled to one another and attached to a grid or the like from being inadvertently rotated relative to one another.
  • a design of the sign carrier can advantageously be provided, which is characterized in that, in the case of four mutually complementary latching or snap-in connection parts, which are pair-wise symmetrical to one another with respect to a vertical center axis and with respect to a horizontal center axis are arranged, two mutually diagonally opposite latching or snap connection parts are of identical design.
  • a section of a lattice wall 1 is shown, which is in particular part of a traditional shopping carts used in supermarkets.
  • two identically designed shield carriers 2 are fastened back to back in that they are coupled to one another in a manner to be described in more detail.
  • Each label holder 2 is designed as a plug-in frame which has a rear wall 3 in which, for example, L-shaped cutouts 4 are provided in order to save material.
  • each sign carrier 2 or plug frame a holding strip 5 runs parallel to the rear wall in a frame-like manner, and this holding strip 5 is connected to the rear wall 3 on the underside and on the two longitudinal sides via webs 6 and 7, thereby creating an insert pocket for advertising signs, Price tags or the like is obtained, cf. also the representation in FIGS. 2 to 4.
  • Such a frame design is known per se, cf. DE-U-8 205 107.
  • each shield carrier 2 For paired coupling of the shield carrier 2 are provided as fasteners on the rear wall 3 of each shield carrier 2 adjacent to the L-shaped recesses 4, generally designated 8 snap or snap connection parts on tabs or tongues 9, which are substantially rectangular in view and from the rear wall 3 on three sides, at 10, are recessed so that they are integrally connected to the rear wall 3 only on one side of the rectangle.
  • the two locking or snap connection parts 8 (or 11, 12) are arranged essentially symmetrically with respect to a vertical center axis 13, so that such connecting parts of two such identically designed shield carriers or plug frames 2 are aligned back to back when they are placed against one another .
  • the rear wall 3 with the tabs 9 consists of a material of sufficient elasticity, such as plastic, so that the tabs 9 can be deflected resiliently out of the plane of the rear wall 3, cf. also the representation in FIGS. 1 and 5.
  • the tabs 9 can be deflected in pairs towards one another by two plug frames 2 to be fastened with their rear sides facing one another on the grid 1, wherein they extend through the openings between the grid bars 14 with one another by connecting the hook-shaped connecting part 12 through the opposite opening 11 and locking it behind like a barb, cf. 5, in which the compression of the tabs 9 is indicated by arrows pointing in opposite directions.
  • FIG. 6 shows a configuration of the latching or snap connection parts that is somewhat modified compared to FIG. 5.
  • the hook-shaped connecting part 12 which is inserted through an opening 11 in the tab 9 of the other plug frame of a pair, is rounded on the engagement side, and in a corresponding manner the web 15 delimiting the opening 11 in the other tab 9 is correspondingly rounded cross section.
  • This design has the advantage that even with different thicknesses of the bars and thus with different degrees of deflection of the tabs 9, a full engagement of the two connecting parts can always be achieved, for example, even if the two tabs 9 - with correspondingly thick bars 14th (FIGS. 1 and 5) with their ends carrying the connecting parts 11, 12 should extend obliquely to one another, as is shown in FIG. 6.
  • FIGS. 7 and 8 Yet another embodiment of the coupling parts is illustrated in FIGS. 7 and 8.
  • the hook-shaped connecting part 12 is T-shaped in an end view (see also FIG. 8), and the associated opening 11 has a wider section 16 and a narrower section 17 which adjoins the wider section 16 in Direction to the free end of the tab 9 extends.
  • the hook-shaped connecting part 12 is first inserted through the wider opening section 16, as illustrated in FIG. 7 with dashed lines, and then the hook-shaped connecting part 12 with its web 18 is allowed to slide into the narrower opening area 17 , because of the Material elasticity of the tabs 9, as a result of which the hook-shaped connecting part 12 is hooked and locked in the narrower opening section 17, as illustrated in FIG. 7 by solid lines and in FIG. 8.
  • FIG. 9 shows a rear view of a modified sign carrier 2, designed as an upright plug-in frame and intended for smaller signs, in the rear wall 3 of which a single resiliently deflectable tab 9 is recessed.
  • the two corresponding locking or snap connection parts 8 are provided, which are non-circular in view, rectangular in the present exemplary embodiment.
  • the one in Fig. 9 left latching or snap connection part 8 is designed in the form of a narrow, undercut formed bar 19, and the other, corresponding in Fig. 9, right snap connection part 8 is a block-shaped projection formed undercut on its outer edge 20 trained.
  • the block-shaped projection 20 of one label carrier 2 can therefore be snapped like a push button within the then opposite strip 19 of the other label carrier 2.
  • the non-circular shape of the snap connection parts 8 prevents undesired mutual twisting of the shield carriers 2 connected in this way.
  • FIG. 10 finally shows the back of a label carrier 2, in which a total of four tabs 9 with, for example, snap fastener or snap connection parts 8 are arranged in mirror image with respect to both the vertical center axis 13 and the horizontal center axis 21, with respect to each of the two axes 13 , 21 a male locking or snap connection part (button projection 22) one female locking or snap connection part (button receptacle 23) is opposite, so that two identical connecting parts are arranged diagonally opposite one another.
  • a male locking or snap connection part button projection 22
  • one female locking or snap connection part button receptacle 23
  • the label carriers described above are preferably made of plastic, in particular as injection molded parts, with an integral design being preferred.
  • further modifications and modifications for example with regard to the specific design of the latching or snap connection parts 8, can be carried out by a person skilled in the art.
  • latching or snap-on connecting parts as shown in FIG. 9 in the case of the sign carriers according to FIGS. 1 to 3 and according to FIG.
  • the sign holder could also be designed as a mere supporting wall with resilient clamping elements on the edge for clamping signs instead of as a plug-in frame, and in particular the sign holder can also have a rectangular shape other than shown as shown be shaped, such as circular or oval. It is essential in all of these embodiments that, in the case of two shield carriers facing one another with the rear sides, the paired, ie complementary latching or snap-in connection parts lie opposite one another, the shield carriers being aligned with one another.
  • the decisive factor in all cases is the mirror-image arrangement of mutually corresponding latching or snap connection parts with respect to an axis, which, however, does not necessarily have to be a central axis, cf. the above-mentioned embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 4 or FIG. 10, but with latching or snap-connection part pairs according to FIG. 9 on each tab.
