Definitions

  • the invention relates to a display cassette for interchangeable Information carrier with a carrier housing in the at least one can be opened, at least partially, by a pivoting movement transparent hinged lid with at least one integrated compartment is arranged to accommodate an information carrier.
  • Such a display cassette is known from EP 0 383 042.
  • the display cassette there essentially consists of a body, a hinged lid and a locking cassette.
  • the hinged lid which can be folded over the base body, is articulated stored on the body.
  • the pivot axis of the hinged lid lies in the lower area of the body.
  • In the basic body there are several compartments to hold partial information carriers arranged. Above these compartments is in the hinged lid a compartment for another partial information carrier arranged.
  • the subject including the information carrier it contains lies above and in front of the partial information carriers of Compartments of the basic body. Over the top of the closed Display cassette will be after loading or exchanging the partial information carrier the locking cassette about the combination slipped out of base body and hinged lid.
  • the locking cassette locks the display cassette.
  • Such a cassette has several disadvantages. For one, it is Handling the display cassette cumbersome and time-consuming. So must always have at least to exchange partial information carriers two parts are moved. The locking cassette must be removed and the hinged lid can be folded forward. When folding forward can open the hinged cover fully, which causes the information carrier can fall out immediately. On the other hand, do not lie all information carriers on one level behind the lens, what u.a. readability due to unfavorable shadows or cause the front information carrier to slip.
  • the publication DE 85 19 139 U1 describes a price tag with two hinged lids closing towards the middle.
  • the one in the price tag interchangeably inserted fanfolds are loose in the base in subjects.
  • the upper hinged lid is used to close the Price tag swung down while the lower hinged lid is pivoted upwards.

  • a display board is known from DE 72 22 056 U1, in the laterally insertable signs on separate cassettes are arranged.
  • the signs sit in guide rails on the External walls of the individual cassettes. They are assembled by Side rails protected from falling out from the side.
  • the cassettes themselves are used to replace the signs in one Lift and swivel movement removed and reinserted.
  • This display board has a complicated structure and requires several operations for changing the plates.
  • the invention is therefore based on the problem of a display cassette to create that with simple and uncomplicated handling a quick and safe change of partial information carriers allowed.
  • the display cassette should be robust his.
  • an unintended Prevent opening by external influences Furthermore should be those known from the prior art Disadvantages are largely avoided.
  • the invention is solved with the features of the main claim.
  • the individual hinged lid which can be removed from the carrier housing and can be closed by means of a swiveling and lifting movement, has a viewing window which, with the exception of the upper front edge with three edges, adjoins side walls at least in some areas.
  • the hinged lid is at least partially encompassed in the region of its two viewing window edges running parallel to its pivot axis, with the aid of a spring mechanism arranged between it and the area of the carrier housing - in the vicinity of which the respective bottom of a hinged lid is located - at least partially with it that supports the lens edge not adjacent to the spring mechanism or another front section against the carrier housing.
  • the spring travel of the spring mechanism is greater than the closing stroke of the hinged lid in the support direction.
  • the most sensitive part of the display cassette is the spring mechanism, which pushes the hinged cover through the corresponding grips of the carrier housing or fixes it there.
  • the spring mechanism can be designed in various ways. For example, it can consist of an elastic, compressible rubber hose, a rubber cord, an elastic plastic tube, plastic leaf springs, several rubber balls, or comparable spring elements.
  • the spring elements can either lie loosely in the carrier housing or be attached to or molded onto this or the corresponding hinged cover.
