Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sales aid, in particular for tools, with at least one support plate carried by two side parts.
  • Sales aids are known from practice, which are provided with a support frame which can be suspended in profile strips for receiving tools. Although these known sales aids enable storage and presentation of the tools, each requires a special support frame for receiving a specific type of tool, since the support plate forming the support frame and the side parts are permanently connected to one another. In addition, these known sales aids are very difficult with various exhibition systems, such as Counter stands or free-standing stands to combine.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a variable sales aid for accommodating different tools and tool sizes.
  • the solution to this problem by the invention is characterized in that the side parts are connected to one another in a frame-like manner by a front profile and a rear wall profile and that at least one support plate element is interchangeably inserted between the front and rear wall profiles.
  • the side panels Due to the frame-like design of the side panels, front and rear wall profiles receiving the support plate elements, there is the possibility of fitting the side panels according to the desired exhibition system with hook elements arranged on the back for detachable attachment to mounting rails, with contact patches for freely moving installation or with at least one fastening strap each Attachment to at least one free-standing support stand.
  • the side parts are preferably connected to the profiles by means of self-tapping screws which are accommodated in guides of the front and rear wall profiles.
  • the front profile consists of an almost rectangular box profile. On the top, the front profile has a shoulder for supporting the support plate elements and a rear undercut on the front edge.
  • the undercut is used to accommodate a safety bar, which overlaps the front area of the support plate elements resting on the heel, so that the support plate elements cannot be accidentally lifted off the front profile in the fully assembled state.
  • An information carrier can be attached to the front of the front profile for labeling the goods and for price labeling.
  • the front profile on the upper and lower edge of the front side has undercuts directed towards the center, into which the information carrier can be inserted.
  • the rear wall profile is designed as a U-profile which is open at the top in cross section.
  • One leg of the U-profile has a web which is angled at right angles in the direction of the front profile and has an angled free end, the web serving as a support for the rear end of the support plate elements serves.
  • a further sloping web is formed at the base of the same leg of the U-profile.
  • the guides for the screws for connecting the side parts to the rear wall profile are arranged on the webs of the U-profile.
  • the support plate elements consist of an upper board and a lower board connected to it by spot welding.
  • the top and bottom plates have openings which are adapted to the tools to be accommodated in each case.
  • the two-part design of the support plate elements facilitates the manufacture of the individual boards, since the openings in the top and bottom boards are shaped differently in order to keep the tools to be held as safe and space-saving as possible.
  • the arrangement of the openings to one another is adapted to the size of the tools to be accommodated, so that tools of the same size are arranged one behind the other or one above the other so that the customer can find the desired tool as quickly and easily as possible.
  • the top plate consists of a flat plate with edges bent downwards at right angles, the ends of the side edges facing the rear wall profile having mouth-shaped incisions into which the upper webs of the rear wall profile engage.
  • the lower board consists of a flat plate, the edges of which face the front and rear wall profiles, forming a step, are bent at right angles upwards and outwards so that the free ends lie from the inside against the bent front and rear edges of the upper board.
  • the openings in the top and bottom plates are designed as isosceles Y, seen from the top view.
  • the screwdrivers are inserted with the flat tip first in the direction of one leg of the isosceles Y through the openings in the circuit board until the screwdriver is located in the transition area between the shaft and handle in the middle of the Y-shaped opening.
  • the openings are designed as elongated holes which are arranged in pairs at a distance parallel to one another and to the side parts, the elongated holes of the lower board being larger than the elongated holes of the upper board.
  • the elongated holes are required to accommodate holders for fixing tools.
  • These brackets are formed from two-layer folded round bars, the free ends of which are bent apart and have beads on the outer sides. The brackets are inserted from below through the elongated holes in the lower and upper board until the beads are fixed in the edges of the large elongated holes in the lower board.
  • brackets are arranged parallel to the rear wall profile and in front of each elongated hole pair of the upper board. These brackets are stabilized by means of a C-shaped end strip running parallel to the rear wall profile and form a front stop for the tools arranged between the pairs of brackets.
  • a rear wall can be inserted between the legs of the U-shaped rear wall profile to accommodate further information carriers.
  • a sales aid designed according to this technical teaching has the advantage that several support plate elements for different tools can be arranged side by side between a front profile and a rear wall profile and the sales aid can also be converted for different exhibition systems.
  • the sales aid serves for the storage and presentation of goods and in particular tools.
  • the sales aid comprises two side parts 1, which are connected like a frame with a front profile 2 and a rear wall profile 3.
  • Interchangeable support plate elements 4 are inserted between the front profile 2 and the rear wall profile 3.
  • the side parts 1 are provided on the back with hook elements 5, by means of which they can be suspended in vertical support rails 6.
  • the side parts 1 are provided with contact surfaces 7.
  • a sales aid equipped with such contact areas 7 can be set up, for example, as a freely movable stand on the counter.
  • the side parts 1 are designed in such a way that they can be fastened to a free-standing support stand 8a with at least one fastening tab 8 each.
  • a support stand 8a can for example be adjustable in height and equipped with or without castors.
  • the front profile 2 and the rear wall profile 3 are the essential components of the sales aid, since the support plate elements 4 can be used interchangeably between the profiles 2, 3.
  • the side parts 1 are connected to the profiles 2, 3, independently of their embodiment (FIGS. 2 to 4) by means of screws 9, preferably self-tapping screws.
  • the front profile 2 consists of an almost rectangular box profile.
  • the front profile 2 has longitudinal guides 10.
  • a stepped shoulder 12 is formed on an upper side 11 of the front profile 2, on which the support plate elements 4 rest in the fully assembled state.
  • the top 11 of the front profile 2 also has a rearward undercut 14 on a front edge 13 for receiving a safety strip 15, which overlaps the front area of the support plate elements 4 resting on the shoulder 12 and thus prevents the support plate elements 4 from being lifted.
  • an information carrier 17 can be attached to a front side 16 of the front profile 2.
  • the front 16 has undercuts 18 directed towards the center on the upper and lower edges.
  • the rear wall profile 3 shown in FIG. 6 consists of an upwardly open U-profile with two webs 19, 20 formed at a distance from one another and projecting outwards.
  • the upper, at right angles in the direction of the front profile 2 web 19 serves as a support for the rear end of the support plate elements 4.
  • the second web 20 is integrally formed on the base of the same leg of the U-profile and has an incline downwards under the web 19.
  • the rear wall profile 3, like the front profile 2, has guides 10 for the screws 9, which are required to tighten the To connect side parts 1 with the profiles 2,3.
  • the support plate elements 4 consist of an upper plate 21 and a lower plate 22, which are connected to one another at welding points 23.
  • the exact design of the top and bottom board 21, 22 is shown in FIGS. 7 and 8.
  • the top plate 21 is formed from a flat plate, the edges of which are bent downwards at right angles, with side edges 24 having a shoulder 25 on the end facing the front profile 2 and a mouth-shaped incision 26 on the end facing the rear profile 3. With the front shoulder 25, the top board rests on the shoulder 12 on the upper side 11 of the front profile 2, while the upper web 19 of the rear wall profile 3 engages in the mouth-shaped incision 26 of the side edge 24.
  • the lower board 22 is also formed from a flat plate, the edges 27 facing the front and rear wall profiles 2, 3 being bent to form a step and pointing upwards and outwards at right angles. Furthermore, the lower board 22 has lateral tabs 28 which point upward at right angles.
  • the bent edges 27 and the tabs 28 are arranged in such a way that when the top plate 21 and bottom plate 22 are joined together they lie against the bent edges of the top plate 21 from the inside and can be connected to the top plate at the contact points by spot welding.
  • the top and bottom plates 21, 22 have openings 30 which are designed corresponding to the respective tools 29.
  • the openings 30 are arranged relative to one another in such a way that tools 29 of the same size are arranged parallel to the side parts 1 one behind the other or one above the other on a support plate element 4.
  • FIG. 10 The exact design of an opening 30 for receiving screwdrivers can be seen in FIG. 10.
  • These openings 30 are in the form of an isosceles Y 31, so that a screwdriver with the flat tip ahead can be inserted in the direction of a leg 32 from above through the top and bottom plates 21, 22.
  • the screwdriver In the transition area between the shaft and handle, the screwdriver is fixed between cams 33, which form the transition area of the individual legs 32. In this way, screwdrivers are stored clearly and, above all, securely, because the tips of the screwdrivers point away from the customer below the sales aid.
  • the openings 30 of the upper and lower board 21, 22 are designed as elongated holes 34, the elongated holes 34 of the lower board 22 being larger than the elongated holes 34 of the upper board 21.
  • the elongated holes 34 are not used to hold tools 29, but for holding brackets 35, which are used for setting tools 29.
  • the elongated holes 34 are arranged in pairs at a distance parallel to one another and to the side parts 1 on the boards 21, 22.
  • the brackets 35 which are inserted into the elongated holes 34, are designed as round rods folded in two layers, the free ends 36 of which are bent apart and have beads 37 on the outer sides.
  • the brackets 35 are inserted from below through the lower and upper board 22, 21 until the free ends 36 are bent apart fix the beads 37 in the edges of the large elongated holes 34 of the sub-board 22.
  • a further large elongated hole 34 for inserting a further holder 35 can be arranged parallel to the rear wall profile 3 in front of each elongated hole pair of the top plate 21.
  • These front brackets 35 together with a C-shaped end bar 38 form a front stop for the tools 29 mounted between the brackets 35.
  • the end bar 38 which also has elongated holes 34, is arranged parallel to the rear wall profile 3 on the top plate 21 so that the front brackets 35 inserted through the elongated holes 34 of the end strip 38 on the one hand fix the end strip 38 on the top plate 21 and on the other hand the end strip 38 stabilizes the front bracket 35.
  • a back wall 39 can be inserted into the U-shaped rear wall profile 3 in order to accommodate further information carriers 17 which, for example, make it easier to sort and search for tools 29 by means of pictograms.
  • various support plate elements 4 for receiving different tools 29 can be used interchangeably between the front profile 2 and the rear wall profile 3 and the profiles 2, 3 via side parts 1 be connected to a fixed frame, wherein different side parts 1 can be combined to combine with different exhibition systems with the same front and rear wall profiles 2, 3.
