Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a merchandise display having a plurality of plates mounted articulated on a chassis provided possibly casters.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to overcome the drawbacks of the prior art by proposing a merchandise display allowing to modify the inclination of the plates.
  • the display essentially comprises a frame (4) allowing the mounting of a pair of uprights (2.1 to 2.4), forming with each side of the plates (1) a parallelogram, and intended to receive a plurality of plates (1) articulated on these uprights to constitute support and merchandise display surfaces.
  • the chassis (4) is formed of a frame on opposite sides, from which four arms (20) are mounted vertical.
  • the chassis (4) is mounted, for example, on casters (41) for facilitate the movement of the display.
  • Each plate (1) is formed by a bottom (12), for example, of shape rectangular, the sides of which include edges (11.1, 11.2) only perpendicular to the bottom (12).
  • Each plate (1) is mounted by at least two edges (11.1) or opposite sides pivotally on the uprights (2.1 to 2.4).
  • the pivoting connection between an upright (2.1 to 2.4) and the edge (11.1) or side of a plate (1) is made via a first axis (10.1 to 10.4) pivoting through the upright (2.1 to 2.4) and the edge (11.1) of the corresponding tray (1).
  • first axis 10.1 to 10.4
  • the first axes (10.1 10.2, respectively 10.3, 10.4) of each edge (11.1) of each plate (1) are included in a plane parallel to the plane of the plate (1).
  • the first axes (10.1, 10.2 respectively 10.3, 10.4) of an edge (11.1) of the plate (1) are aligned on a straight line parallel to the upper and lower edges of the edge (11.1) correspondent of the tray (1).
  • the pivoting mounting of an upright (2.1 to 2.4) on the chassis (4) is produced by means of a second pivot axis (20.1 to 20.4).
  • the chassis (4) comprises at least one pair of uprights (2.1, 2.2 respectively 2.3, 2.4) mounted on opposite edges (11.1) of each tray (1).
  • On vertically adjustable sliding means (5) relative to the vertical arms (40) of the chassis (4) are fixed the second pivot axes (20.1 to 20.4) of the uprights (2.1, 2.2 respectively 2.3, 2.4) to articulate in rotation the deformable parallelogram between two extreme positions one substantially vertical, the other substantially horizontal.
  • the sliding means comprise for example arm (5) sliding in the vertical arms (40) of the chassis (4).
  • the second pivot axes (20.1 to 20.4) can correspond also at the first pivot axes of one of the plates (1) intermediate.
  • the sliding of the arms (5) can be blocked in a position determined by means of locking means (50).
  • These locking means include, a plurality of holes (50) crossing on the one hand the vertical arms (40) constituting a support and on the other share the arm (5) finally a pin of diameter substantially identical to the hole diameter (50). Locking in position of an arm (5) is achieved aligning a hole in the arm (5) on one side with a hole in the support (40) on the same side, then inserting the pin in alignment with the two holes.
  • Other position locking systems can be used without departing from the scope of the invention.
  • the position chosen for the arms (5) sliding is such that all the shelves are horizontal.
  • the position chosen for the arms (5) sliding is such that the amount articulated on a vertical arm (40) is vertically offset from the arm (5) articulated on the vertical arm located in the same side of the frame (4) so that all the plates (1) are inclined with the edge (11.2) front lower than the rear edge (11.2).
  • a first pair of uprights (2.1, 2.3) is mounted substantially at a first end of the opposite edges (11.1) and the second pair of uprights (2.2, 2.4) is mounted at a determined non-zero distance from the second end of the edges (11.1) opposite.
  • This configuration limits the sliding of the arm (5) to obtain a given inclination. So the geometry of the display and the mechanical resistance of the plates (1) are little changed between two different inclinations. In other words, for the same displacement of arm (5), plus the determined distance between the fixing points of the upright (2.1 to 2.4) on each edge (11.1), the greater the inclination of the plates (1) is weak.
  • the distance determined between the fixing points of the two amounts (2.1, 2.2 respectively 2.3, 2.4) is substantially equal half the length of each edge (11.1) on which the amounts (2.1, 2.2 respectively 2.3, 2.4).
  • the first and second axes (10.1 to 10.4, 20.1 to 20.4) of pivoting then allow the pivoting of the uprights (2.1 to 2.4) in keeping the inclination of the plates (1) constant.
  • the display unit comprises means (3) for blocking of the pivoting of the uprights (2.1 to 2.4).
  • These blocking means include an arm (3) providing a connection between the uprights (2.1, 2.2 2.3, 2.4 respectively) mounted on the same edge (11.1).
  • This arm (3) includes locking means (30) for holding constant the distance between the two uprights. So when these means (30) of locking are actuated the amounts can no longer pivot.
  • the locking means comprise a groove (30) formed along the longitudinal axis of a locking arm (3) and an axis fixed on a first upright (2.1 or 2.3) and sliding in the groove (30).
  • a first end (31) of the locking arm (3) is pivotally mounted on the second amount (2.2 respectively 2.4).
  • the pivot axis of the locking arm (3) on the second amount (2.2 respectively 2.4) is confused with the first axis (10.2 respectively 10.4) pivoting ensuring the mounting of the upright (2.2 respectively 2.4) on the plate (1).
  • the pivoting of the uprights (2.1 to 2.4) is free since on the one hand the fixed axis can slide and turn in the groove (30) and that on the other hand the first end (31) of the locking arm (3) can pivot relative to the upright. Therefore the distance between the two uprights (2.1, 2.2 and 2.3, 2.4) can vary freely.
  • the sliding movement of the axis in the groove (30) is lockable, by means of a knob (330) and a ring (331) of clamps mounted, for example, on an axis thread. So, to lock the position of the locking arm (3), just screw the thumbwheel (330). This screwing then causes the blocking arm (3) to block in translation and in rotation between the clamping ring (331) and the upright (2.1 respectively 2.3). In this case, the distance between the two uprights (2.1, 2.2 2.3, 2.4) is fixed and pivoting is no longer possible.
  • the second ends (32) of the locking arms (3) are connected by a crosspiece (6).
  • the locking means comprise a stirrup (34) fixed on a pair of first uprights (2.1, 2.3) close to the same side (11.2) longitudinal of the plates, and an arm (3 ') one end of which is articulated on the second upright (2.2, 2.4).
  • the arm (3 ') includes notches (35) in which the caliper is housed as a function of the position deployment of the chosen amounts.
  • the means blocking include a plate secured to an amount for example at level of an intermediate plateau.
  • the plate includes means for locking cooperating with complementary locking means mounted on the set.
  • the locking means include notches in which a nipple is housed mobile in translation mounted on the side of the intermediate plate.
  • the plate comprises a groove forming an arc of a circle in which slides an integral axis on the side of the plate. Blocking the axis movement is achieved by a wheel mounted on the side of the tray.
  • Figures 1A and 2A show the display unit according to the invention when the uprights (2.1 to 2.4) are vertical. In this position the trays (1) are positioned one above the other. To move from position shown in Figures 1A and 2A in the position shown in Figures 1B and 2B, simply loosen the knobs (330) and then tilt the uprights (2.1 in 2.4) to the selected position and finally tighten the knobs (330). In the position shown in Figures 1B and 2B, the uprights (2.1 to 2.4) have rotated by about 45 °, which allows the plates (1) to be offset compared to others.
  • the figures show the display unit according to the invention when the uprights (2.1 to 2.4) have rotated to the maximum. In this position, the pairs uprights (2.1 to 2.4) mounted respectively on each edge (11.1) opposite are juxtaposed, but the plates (1) remain slightly offset vertically from each other.
  • FIG. 4 represents a second alternative embodiment of the display.
  • This second variant is identical in all points to the first variant shown in Figures 1A to 1C and 2A to 2C, except for the mounting of the uprights (2.1 to 2.4) on the plates (1).
  • the first axes (10.1, 10.2 respectively 10.3, 10.4) of each pair of opposite edges (11.1) of each plate (1) are offset in two planes parallel to the bottom of the plate (1). So, one of the two axes (10.2 respectively 10.4) is articulated above the bottom on the edge (11.1) of the plate while the other first axis (10.1 respectively 10.3) is articulated below the bottom of the plate (1), on a bracket (7) of fixing fixed on the underside of the bottom (12) of the plate (1).
  • the shift of axes (10.1 and 10.2 respectively 10.3 and 10.4) of pivoting allows, when maximum pivoting of the uprights (2.1 to 2.4), placing all trays (1) in the same horizontal plane. If moreover one of the two second pivot axes (20.1, 20.3) of each pair located from each side (11.1) lateral of the plate (1) and close to the same longitudinal side (11.2) is offset vertically with respect to the other second axis (20.2, 20.4) located on the same side (11.1) lateral, then the plane of the plates (1) can form a non-zero angle with the horizontal as a function of the sliding of the sliding arm (5).
  • the merchandise display according to the invention is characterized in that the second pivot axes (20.1 to 20.4) of at least one pair of uprights (2.1, 2.2 and / or 2.3, 2.4) articulated on opposite sides and close to the same longitudinal side (11.2) of the plates (1) are integral with means (5) sliding vertically relative to the chassis (4).
  • one of the first pivot axes (10.1, 10.3) is located at one end of the edge (11.1) of the plate (1) close to a longitudinal side (11.2) of the plates (1) and the other first pivot axis (10.2, 10.4) is mounted at a distance determined non-zero of the second end of the edge (11.1) of the plate.
  • the determined distance at which is mounted the other first pivot axis (10.2, 10.4) is substantially equal to half the length of the edge (11.1) of the plate (1).
  • the first pivot axes (10.1 to 10.4) for mounting the amounts (2.1 to 2.4) are contained in the same plane parallel to the plane of the tray (1).
  • the first pivot axes (10.1 to 10.4) for mounting the uprights (2.1 to 2.4) are offset parallel to the plane of the bottom of the plate (1) so that in the maximum pivoting position all the plates are included in the same plan.
  • the display comprises an arm (3) locking in the pivoting position of the uprights (2.1 to 2.4), of which a first end (31) is pivotally mounted on a first upright (2.2, 2.4), the locking arm (3) has a longitudinal groove (30) in which slides a locking pin integral with the second upright (2.1, 2.3), the locking pin comprising means (330, 331) for locking in translation and in rotation of the locking arm (5).
  • the display comprises an arm (3 ') for locking in the pivoting position of the uprights (2.1 to 2.4), of which a first end (31) is pivotally mounted on a first upright (2.2, 2.4) on one side (11.1) lateral of the plate (1), the locking arm (3) have notches (35) in which is housed a stirrup (34) secured to the second upright (2.1, 2.3) on the same lateral side (11.1).
  • the display comprises a locking plate secured to a first upright (2.1, 2.3) and comprising means for blocking an axis mounted on the plate (1) located at near the plate.
  • the sliding means vertically include on each side (11.1) lateral, an arm (5) mounted sliding in a support (40) of the chassis located near the same side (11.2) longitudinal of the plate (1), a first end of the arm having a housing allowing the mounting of the second axis (20.1 to 20.4) of pivoting of an upright (2.1 to 2.4), the arm (5) comprising means (50) in translational locking relative to the chassis (4).
  • one of the first axes (10.1, 10.3) pivoting of the plate is articulated on a fixing bracket (7) fixed on the underside of the bottom (12) of the plate (1), the other first axis (10.2, 10.4) pivoting being articulated on the edge of the plate (1) in a plane parallel to the bottom (12).
