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).

Description

La présente invention concerne un présentoir de marchandises présentant une pluralité de plateaux montés articulés sur un châssis muni éventuellement de roulettes.The present invention relates to a merchandise display having a plurality of plates mounted articulated on a chassis provided possibly casters.

Il est connu dans l'art antérieur par le brevet européen EP 560 022 un présentoir de marchandises présentant plusieurs plateaux horizontaux. Les plateaux sont montés articulés sur des montants pour former une pluralité de parallélogrammes déformables montés également articulés sur un châssis à roulettes. Les articulations des plateaux sur les montants et des montants sur le châssis permettent de basculer les plateaux d'une position où ils sont verticalement superposés à une position où ils sont alignés dans un même plan horizontal. Lors du passage d'une position à l'autre, les plateaux restent horizontaux. Ainsi, le présentoir enseigné par le brevet EP 560 022 ne prévoit aucun dispositif permettant de modifier l'inclinaison des plateaux. Ceci a, par exemple, pour inconvénient de rendre peu visibles les marchandises présentées sur les plateaux extrêmes.It is known in the prior art from European patent EP 560 022 a merchandise display with several horizontal shelves. The trays are mounted articulated on uprights to form a plurality of deformable parallelograms mounted also articulated on a chassis on casters. The articulations of the trays on the uprights and uprights on the chassis allow the trays to be tilted from one position where they are vertically superimposed at a position where they are aligned in the same horizontal plane. When switching from one position to another, the trays remain horizontal. Thus, the display unit taught by the EP patent 560 022 does not provide any device to modify the inclination of the trays. This has the disadvantage, for example, of making the goods presented on the extreme shelves.

La présente invention a donc pour objet de pallier les inconvénients de l'art antérieur en proposant un présentoir de marchandise permettant de modifier l'inclinaison des plateaux.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.

Cet objectif est atteint par un présentoir de marchandises selon la revendication 1.This objective is achieved by a display of goods according to the claim 1.

Des développements supplémentaires de l'invention sont décrits dans les revendications 2 à 10.Additional developments of the invention are described in claims 2 to 10.

Le présentoir selon l'invention va à présent être décrit en référence aux figures 1A et 3. Le présentoir comprend essentiellement un châssis (4) permettant le montage d'une paire de montants (2.1 à 2.4), formant avec chaque côté des plateaux (1) un parallélogramme, et destinés à recevoir une pluralité de plateaux (1) articulés sur ces montants pour constituer des surfaces de support et de présentation de marchandises. Le châssis (4) est formé d'un cadre sur des côtés opposés, duquel sont monté quatre bras (20) verticaux. Le châssis (4) est monté, par exemple, sur roulettes (41) pour faciliter le déplacement du présentoir.The display according to the invention will now be described with reference in Figures 1A and 3. 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.

Chaque plateau (1) est formé d'un fond (12), par exemple, de forme rectangulaire, dont les côtés comprennent des bords (11.1, 11.2) seulement perpendiculaires au fond (12). Chaque plateau (1) est monté par au moins deux bords (11.1) ou côtés opposés de manière pivotante sur les montants (2.1 à 2.4). La liaison pivotante entre un montant (2.1 à 2.4) et le bord (11.1) ou côté d'un plateau (1) est réalisée par l'intermédiaire d'un premier axe (10.1 à 10.4) de pivotement traversant le montant (2.1 à 2.4) et le bord (11.1) du plateau (1) correspondant. Ainsi, chaque côté d'un plateau (1) est articulé par rapport à deux montants (2.1 à 2.4). Selon la première variante de réalisation, les premiers axes (10.1 10.2, respectivement 10.3, 10.4) de chaque bord (11.1) de chaque plateau (1) sont compris dans un plan parallèle au plan du plateau (1). En d'autres termes, les premiers axes (10.1, 10.2 respectivement 10.3, 10.4) d'un bord (11.1) du plateau (1) sont alignés sur une droite parallèle aux arrêtes supérieure et inférieure du bord (11.1) correspondant du plateau (1).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). Thus, each side of a plate (1) is articulated compared to two amounts (2.1 to 2.4). According to the first variant of realization, 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). In other words, 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).

Le montage pivotant d'un montant (2.1 à 2.4) sur le châssis (4) est réalisé par l'intermédiaire d'un deuxième axe (20.1 à 20.4) de pivotement. Selon l'invention, le châssis (4) comprend au moins une paire de montants (2.1, 2.2 respectivement 2.3, 2.4) montés sur des bords (11.1) opposés de chaque plateau (1). Sur des moyens (5) coulissants réglables verticalement par rapport aux bras (40) verticaux du châssis (4) sont fixés les deuxièmes axes (20.1 à 20.4) de pivotement des montants (2.1, 2.2 respectivement 2.3, 2.4) pour articuler en rotation le parallélogramme déformable entre deux positions extrêmes une sensiblement verticale, l'autre sensiblement horizontale. Les moyens de coulissement comprennent par exemple des bras (5) coulissant dans les bras (40) verticaux du châssis (4).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). According to the invention, 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).

Selon les variantes de réalisation représentées aux figures 1 à 4, les deuxièmes axes (20.1 à 20.4) de pivotement peuvent correspondre également aux premiers axes de pivotement d'un des plateaux (1) intermédiaires. Le coulissement des bras (5) peut être bloqué dans une position déterminée par l'intermédiaire de moyens (50) de verrouillage. Ces moyens de verrouillage comprennent, une pluralité de perçages (50) traversant d'une part les bras (40) verticaux constituant un appui et d'autre part le bras (5) enfin une goupille de diamètre sensiblement identique au diamètre des perçages (50). Le blocage en position d'un bras (5) est réalisé en alignant un perçage du bras (5) d'un côté avec un perçage de l'appui (40) du même côté, puis en introduisant la goupille dans l'alignement des deux perçages. D'autres systèmes de blocage en position peuvent être utilisés sans sortir du cadre de l'invention.According to the variant embodiments shown in FIGS. 1 to 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.

Selon les figures 1A à 1C, la position choisie pour les bras (5) coulissants est telle que tous les plateaux sont horizontaux.According to FIGS. 1A to 1C, the position chosen for the arms (5) sliding is such that all the shelves are horizontal.

Selon les figures 2A à 2C, la position choisie pour les bras (5) coulissants est telle que le montant articulé sur un bras vertical (40) est décalé verticalement du bras (5) articulé sur le bras vertical situé du même côté du châssis (4) pour que tous les plateaux (1) soient inclinés avec le bord (11.2) avant plus bas que le bord (11.2) arrière.According to FIGS. 2A to 2C, 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).

Selon l'invention, pour chaque plateau (1), une première paire de montants (2.1, 2.3) est montée sensiblement à une première extrémité des bords (11.1) opposés et la deuxième paire de montants (2.2, 2.4) est montée à une distance déterminée non nulle de la deuxième extrémité des bords (11.1) opposés. Cette configuration permet de limiter le coulissement du bras (5) pour obtenir une inclinaison donnée. Ainsi, la géométrie du présentoir et la résistance mécanique des plateaux (1) sont peu modifiées entre deux inclinaisons différentes. En d'autres termes, pour un même déplacement des bras (5), plus la distance déterminée, entre les points de fixation du montant (2.1 à 2.4) sur chaque bord (11.1) est grande plus l'inclinaison des plateaux (1) est faible.According to the invention, for each tray (1), 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.

A titre d'exemple, la distance déterminée entre les points de fixation des deux montants (2.1, 2.2 respectivement 2.3, 2.4) est sensiblement égale à la moitié de la longueur de chaque bord (11.1) sur lequel sont montés les montants (2.1, 2.2 respectivement 2.3, 2.4). Dans cette configuration, on obtient un compromis satisfaisant entre l'angle d'inclinaison possible des plateaux (1) et la résistance mécanique du présentoir quelle que soit la position de pivotement et l'inclinaison des plateaux (1).For example, 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). In this configuration, we obtains a satisfactory compromise between the possible angle of inclination of the trays (1) and the mechanical strength of the display whatever the pivoting position and inclination of the plates (1).

Les premiers et deuxièmes axes (10.1 à 10.4, 20.1 à 20.4) de pivotement permettent alors le pivotement des montants (2.1 à 2.4) en conservant constante l'inclinaison des plateaux (1).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.

Afin de maintenir les montants (2.1 à 2.4) dans une position choisie par l'utilisateur, le présentoir selon l'invention comprend des moyens (3) de blocage du pivotement des montants (2.1 à 2.4). Ces moyens de blocage comprennent un bras (3) assurant une liaison entre les montants (2.1, 2.2 respectivement 2.3, 2.4) montés sur un même bord (11.1). Ce bras (3) comprend des moyens (30) de verrouillage permettant de maintenir constante la distance entre les deux montants. Ainsi, lorsque ces moyens (30) de verrouillage sont actionnés les montants ne peuvent plus pivoter. In order to keep the uprights (2.1 to 2.4) in a chosen position by the user, the display unit according to the invention 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.

Les moyens de verrouillage comprennent une gorge (30) formée selon l'axe longitudinal d'un bras (3) de blocage et un axe fixé sur un premier montant (2.1 ou 2.3) et coulissant dans la gorge (30). Une première extrémité (31) du bras (3) de blocage est montée de façon pivotante sur le deuxième montant (2.2 respectivement 2.4). Dans la variante de réalisation représentée, l'axe de pivotement du bras (3) de blocage sur le deuxième montant (2.2 respectivement 2.4) est confondu avec le premier axe (10.2 respectivement 10.4) de pivotement assurant le montage du montant (2.2 respectivement 2.4) sur le plateau (1). Ainsi, en position déverrouillée, le pivotement des montants (2.1 à 2.4) est libre puisque d'une part l'axe fixe peut coulisser et tourner dans la gorge (30) et que d'autre part la première extrémité (31) du bras (3) de blocage peut pivoter par rapport au montant. Par conséquent la distance entre les deux montants (2.1, 2.2 et 2.3, 2.4) peut varier librement.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). In the variant shown, 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). Thus, in the unlocked position, 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.

Le mouvement de coulissement de l'axe dans la gorge (30) est verrouillable, par l'intermédiaire d'une mollette (330) et d'une bague (331) de serrage montées, par exemple, sur un filetage de l'axe. Ainsi, pour verrouiller la position du bras (3) de blocage, il suffit de visser la molette (330). Ce vissage provoque alors le blocage du bras (3) de blocage en translation et en rotation entre la bague (331) de serrage et le montant (2.1 respectivement 2.3). Dans ce cas, la distance entre les deux montants (2.1, 2.2 respectivement 2.3, 2.4) est fixe et le pivotement n'est plus possible.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.

Pour rigidifier la structure du présentoir selon l'invention, les deuxièmes extrémités (32) des bras (3) de blocage sont reliées par une traverse (6).To stiffen the structure of the display unit according to the invention, the second ends (32) of the locking arms (3) are connected by a crosspiece (6).

D'autres systèmes de blocage peuvent être choisis pour maintenir constante la distance entre les montants (2.1, 2.2 respectivement 2.3, 2.4) afin d'empêcher leur pivotement. Ainsi, dans une variante de réalisation représentée à la figure 5, les moyens de blocage comprennent un étrier (34) fixé sur une paire de premiers montants (2.1, 2.3) proche d'un même côté (11.2) longitudinal des plateaux, et un bras (3') dont une extrémité est articulée sur le deuxième montant (2.2, 2.4). Le bras (3') comprend des encoches (35) dans lesquelles vient se loger l'étrier en fonction de la position de déploiement des montants choisis.Other blocking systems can be chosen to maintain constant the distance between the uprights (2.1, 2.2 respectively 2.3, 2.4) to prevent them from pivoting. Thus, in an alternative embodiment shown in Figure 5, 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.

Dans une autre variante de réalisation (non représenté) les moyens de blocage comprennent une plaque solidaire d'un montant par exemple au niveau d'un plateau intermédiaire. La plaque comprend des moyens de verrouillage coopérant avec des moyens complémentaires de verrouillage montés sur le plateau. A titre d'exemple, les moyens de verrouillage comprennent des encoches dans lesquelles viennent se loger un téton mobile en translation monté sur le coté du plateau intermédiaire. Dans une autre variante, la plaque comprend une gorge formant un arc de cercle dans laquelle coulisse un axe solidaire du côté du plateau. Le blocage du mouvement de l'axe est réalisé par une molette montée sur le côté du plateau. A titre d'exemple, ces deux variantes de réalisation sont représentées dans le modèle d'utilité japonais 4-4827.In another alternative embodiment (not shown) 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. For example, the locking means include notches in which a nipple is housed mobile in translation mounted on the side of the intermediate plate. In another variant, 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. By way of example, these two alternative embodiments are depicted in Japanese utility model 4-4827.

Les figures 1A et 2A montrent le présentoir selon l'invention lorsque les montants (2.1 à 2.4) sont verticaux. Dans cette position les plateaux (1) sont positionnés les uns au-dessus des autres. Pour passer de la position représentée aux figures 1A et 2A à la position représentée aux figures 1B et 2B, il suffit de desserrer les molettes (330) puis de basculer les montants (2.1 à 2.4) jusqu'à la position choisie et enfin de resserrer les molettes (330). Dans la position représentée aux figures 1B et 2B, les montants (2.1 à 2.4) ont pivoté d'environ 45°, ce qui permet de décaler les plateaux (1) les uns par rapport aux autres.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.

Les figures montrent le présentoir selon l'invention lorsque les montants (2.1 à 2.4) ont pivoté au maximum. Dans cette position, les paires de montants (2.1 à 2.4) montées respectivement sur chaque bord (11.1) opposé sont juxtaposées, mais les plateaux (1) restent légèrement décalés verticalement les uns part rapport aux autres.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.

La figure 4 représente une deuxième variante de réalisation du présentoir. Cette deuxième variante de réalisation est identique en tous points à la première variante de réalisation représentée aux figures 1A à 1C et 2A à 2C, hormis le montage des montants (2.1 à 2.4) sur les plateaux (1). Dans cette deuxième variante, les premiers axes (10.1, 10.2 respectivement 10.3, 10.4) de chaque paire de bords (11.1) opposés de chaque plateau (1) sont décalés dans deux plans parallèles au fond du plateau (1). Ainsi, l'un des deux axes (10.2 respectivement 10.4) est articulé au dessus du fond sur le bord (11.1) du plateau alors que l'autre premier axe (10.1 respectivement 10.3) est articulé en dessous du fond du plateau (1), sur une équerre (7) de fixation fixée sur le dessous du fond (12) du plateau (1). Le décalage des axes (10.1 et 10.2 respectivement 10.3 et à 10.4) de pivotement permet, lors du pivotement maximum des montants (2.1 à 2.4), de placer tous les plateaux (1) dans un même plan horizontal. Si de plus l'un des deux deuxièmes axes (20.1, 20.3) de pivotement de chaque paire situés de chaque côté (11.1) latéral du plateau (1) et proche du même côté longitudinal (11.2) est décalé verticalement par rapport à l'autre deuxième axe (20.2, 20.4) situé du même côté (11.1) latéral, alors le plan des plateaux (1) peut former un angle non nul avec l'horizontal en fonction du coulissement du bras (5) de coulissement.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). In this second variant, 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).

Ainsi, le présentoir de marchandises selon l'invention se caractérise en ce que les deuxièmes axes (20.1 à 20.4) de pivotement d'au moins une paire de montants (2.1, 2.2 et/ou 2.3, 2.4) articulés sur des côtés opposés et proche du même côté (11.2) longitudinal des plateaux (1) sont solidaires de moyens (5) coulissant verticalement par rapport sur le châssis (4).Thus, 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).
