Description

La présente invention est relative à un cintre-présentoir, notamment pour articles textiles.The present invention relates to a hanger-display, particularly for textile articles.

L'invention concerne plus particulièrement un cintre-présentoir pour articles textiles tels que des sous-vêtements, et en particulier des slips et analogues.The invention relates more particularly to a hanger-display for articles textiles such as undergarments, and in particular pants and the like.

On utilise couramment des cintres-présentoirs pour la vente de tels articles textiles en libre-service, notamment dans des grandes surfaces, le cintre étant constitué sous la forme d'une plaquette en forme de barrette allongée, comportant une partie de suspension en forme de crochet et des moyens, transversalement espacés sur la plaquette, pour retenir l'article.Rack hangers are commonly used for selling such items textiles in self-service, especially in supermarkets, the hanger being constituted in the form of an elongated bar-shaped plate having a portion of hook-shaped suspension and means, transversely spaced on the wafer, to retain the article.

On connaít de tels cintres-présentoirs dans lesquels chacun des moyens de retenue comporte deux branches sensiblement parallèles définissant entre elles une cavité de réception pour l'article, l'une des branches étant repliée en forme de crochet s'appliquant élastiquement par son extrémité repliée contre l'autre branche en pinçant l'article textile.There are known such display hangers in which each of the means of retainer comprises two substantially parallel branches defining between them a cavity of reception for the article, one of the branches being folded into a hook shape elastically applied by its folded end against the other branch by pinching the textile article.

Un exemple de tels cintres-présentoirs est donné par GB-A-2 224 642.An example of such display hangers is given in GB-A-2,224,642.

La société déposante a décrit dans son brevet européen EP 0 654 239, et commercialise, des cintres-présentoirs dans lesquels les moyens de retenue sont constitués par deux branches parallèles défmissant entre elles une cavité de réception pour l'article et une branche intermédiaire s'étendant entre lesdites branches, reliée par une extrémité à une première desdites branches et dont l'extrémité libre est dirigée vers la cavité, la branche intermédiaire étant sensiblement parallèle auxdites branches et définissant avec la seconde desdites branches une fente communiquant avec la cavité, cavité dans laquelle est prévu un moyen de guidage de l'article en direction de la fente à l'écart de l'extrémité libre de la branche intermédiaire.The applicant company has described in its European patent EP 0 654 239, and sells, display hangers in which the retaining means are constituted by two parallel branches defining between them a receiving cavity for the article and an intermediate branch extending between said branches, connected at one end to a first of said branches and whose free end is directed towards the cavity, the branch intermediate being substantially parallel to said branches and defining with the second of said branches a slot communicating with the cavity, cavity in which is provided a means of guiding the article towards the slot away from the free end of the intermediate branch.

Les cintres réalisés selon le brevet européen de la déposante ont, du fait de leurs caractéristiques avantageuses, rencontré un important succès commercial.The hangers made according to the European patent of the applicant have, because of their advantageous features, met with significant commercial success.

Cependant, ils ne permettent pas de répondre à un besoin de certains utilisateurs de mettre en place deux articles textiles, tels que des sous-vêtements et en particulier des slips, sur un même cintre-présentoir tout en laissant apparentes, au moins en majeure partie, la ceinture des slips tout en n'augmentant pas sensiblement l'encombrement par rapport à la présentation d'un seul article textile sur le cintre. However, they do not meet a need of some users to set up two textile articles, such as underwear and pants, on the same hanger-display while leaving visible, at least in most of them, the waistband of the briefs while not appreciably increasing clutter compared to the presentation of a single textile article on the hanger.

D'autres cintres connus destinés à recevoir plusieurs articles textiles, tels que décrits par exemple dans les documents GB-A-2354158 et US-A-6250523 ne permettent pas d'assurer une telle présentation des articles supportés.Other known hangers for receiving several textile articles, such as described for example in GB-A-2354158 and US-A-6250523 do not allow not to provide such a presentation of the articles supported.

La présente invention se propose précisément de fournir un cintre-présentoir permettant de répondre à ces besoins de présentation d'articles tout en étant d'une réalisation particulièrement simple et économique.The present invention proposes precisely to provide a hanger-display to meet these needs for article presentation while being of a particularly simple and economical realization.

La présente invention a pour objet un cintre-présentoir, notamment pour articles textiles, constitué d'une barrette allongée comportant une partie centrale de suspension en forme de crochet et des moyens de retenue d'article, transversalement espacés, caractérisé par le fait qu'il comporte, aux extrémités de la barrette allongée, des moyens de retenue formés d'un organe de retenue supérieur et d'un organe de retenue inférieur, d'un seul tenant, comprenant chacun une branche rectiligne recourbée et une branche en forme de crochet définissant entre elles une cavité de réception pour l'article et une fente de réception de l'article communiquant avec elle, l'organe de retenue inférieur étant fixé à l'extrémité inférieure de la branche repliée de l'organe de retenue supérieur, les cavités de réception d'articles des deux organes de retenue étant sensiblement à l'aplomb l'une de l'autre. La branche rectiligne de l'organe de retenue supérieur se prolonge sur une partie de la hauteur de l'organe de retenue inférieur définissant une fente de réception d'article comportant une zone inférieure réalisée entre le prolongement vers le bas, de préférence amincie, de la branche rectiligne de l'organe de retenue supérieur et la branche rectiligne de l'organe de retenue inférieur et une zone supérieure réalisée entre les deux branches de l'organe de retenue supérieur, et débouchant dans la cavité de réception d'article de celui-ci.The present invention relates to a hanger-display, especially for textile articles, consisting of an elongated bar having a central portion of hook-shaped suspension and article retaining means, transversely spaced apart, characterized in that it comprises, at the ends of the elongated bar, retaining means formed of an upper retainer and a retainer lower, in one piece, each comprising a curved rectilinear branch and a hook-shaped branch defining between them a receiving cavity for the article and a receiving slot of the article communicating with it, the lower retainer being attached to the lower end of the folded branch of the upper retainer, the receiving cavities of articles of the two retainers being substantially in line one from the other. The rectilinear branch of the upper retaining member extends over a part of the height of the lower retaining member defining a receiving slot article having a lower zone formed between the extension downwards, of preferably thinned, of the rectilinear limb of the upper retainer and the limb rectilinear of the lower retainer and an upper zone made between the two branches of the upper retaining member, and opening into the receiving cavity of article of it.

Les branches de l'organe de retenue supérieur sont de préférence agencées pour que ladite zone supérieure de la fente d'introduction d'article supérieur soit inclinée par rapport à la zone inférieure de la fente qui est orientée verticalement en position d'utilisation du cintre-présentoir sur un linéaire de magasin.The branches of the upper retainer are preferably arranged for said upper region of the upper article introduction slot to be inclined relative to the lower zone of the slot which is oriented vertically in position of use of the hanger-display on a shelf linear.

Grâce à cette configuration, l'effet de pincement de l'organe de retenue supérieur sur l'article textile mis en place dans celui-ci est renforcé par la tension exercée par le deuxième article textile engagé dans l'organe de retenue inférieur.With this configuration, the pinch effect of the retainer higher on the textile article set up in it is reinforced by the tension exerted by the second textile article engaged in the lower retainer.

Dans la pratique, le cintre-présentoir selon l'invention comporte également entre les moyens de retenue d'extrémité des moyens de retenue intermédiaires comportant également un organe de retenue supérieur et un organe de retenue inférieur, d'un seul tenant, l'organe de retenue inférieur étant réalisé comme décrit dans le brevet européen EP 0 654 239 et comportant deux branches parallèles définissant entre elles une cavité de réception pour l'article, et une branche intermédiaire reliée par une extrémité à une première desdites branches et dont l'extrémité libre est dirigée vers ladite cavité, la branche intermédiaire étant sensiblement parallèle auxdites branches et définissant avec la seconde desdites branches une fente communiquant avec ladite cavité dans laquelle est prévu un moyen de guidage d'article.In practice, the hanger-display according to the invention also comprises between the end retaining means of the intermediate retaining means comprising also an upper retainer and a lower retainer, of a single holding, the lower retainer being made as described in the European patent EP 0 654 239 and having two parallel branches defining between them a cavity of receipt for the article, and an intermediate branch connected by one end to a first of said branches and whose free end is directed towards said cavity, the branch intermediate being substantially parallel to said branches and defining with the second of said branches a slot communicating with said cavity in which is provided a article guide means.

L'organe de retenue inférieur de chaque moyen de retenue intermédiaire est réalisé à l'extrémité inférieure de l'organe de retenue supérieur constitué d'une branche rectiligne et d'une branche recourbée en forme de crochet s'appliquant élastiquement par son extrémité repliée contre la branche rectiligne en pinçant l'article textile supérieur.The lower retaining member of each intermediate retaining means is made at the lower end of the upper retainer consisting of a branch rectilinear and a curved hook-shaped branch applying elastically to its end folded against the rectilinear branch by pinching the upper textile article.

Dans un mode de réalisation particulier, le cintre-présentoir comporte en outre au moins un moyen de retenue central réalisé sensiblement à l'aplomb de la partie de suspension et agencé comme l'organe de retenue inférieur de chaque moyen de retenue intermédiaire, permettant de recevoir les extrémités des articles textiles, tels que des slips, mis en place sur le cintre-présentoir, lorsque l'on désire présenter ces articles sous forme repliée.In a particular embodiment, the hanger-display also comprises at least one central retaining means substantially perpendicular to the portion of suspension and arranged as the lower retainer of each retaining means intermediate, to receive the ends of textile articles, such as briefs, put in place on the hanger-display, when one wishes to present these articles in form folded.

Dans le but de mieux faire comprendre l'invention, on va maintenant décrire, à titre d'exemple nullement limitatif un mode de réalisation en se référant au dessin annexé, dans lequel :

  • la figure unique est une vue en plan d'un cintre-présentoir selon la présente invention.
In order to better understand the invention, an embodiment will now be described, by way of non-limiting example, with reference to the appended drawing, in which:
  • the single figure is a plan view of a hanger-display according to the present invention.

Le cintre-présentoir illustré sur le dessin est réalisé d'un seul tenant par moulage par injection d'une matière plastique transparente, notamment en polystyrène, et comporte une barrette allongée 1 munie dans sa partie centrale d'une partie supérieure de suspension 2 en forme de crochet.The hanger-display shown in the drawing is made in one piece by injection molding of a transparent plastics material, in particular of polystyrene, and has an elongate bar 1 provided in its central part with an upper part of suspension 2 hook-shaped.

Aux extrémités transversalement espacées de la barrette 1, sont réalisés des moyens, désignés globalement par 3 et 4, aptes à retenir chacun deux articles textiles, notamment des sous-vêtements tels que des slips (non représentés).At the transversely spaced ends of the bar 1, are made means, designated generally by 3 and 4, each capable of retaining two textile articles, particularly undergarments such as underpants (not shown).

Les deux moyens de retenue 3 et 4 sont identiques et disposés symétriquement par rapport à l'axe médian de la barrette. The two retaining means 3 and 4 are identical and arranged symmetrically relative to the median axis of the bar.

Chaque moyen de retenue 3, 4 comporte un organe de retenue supérieur désigné globalement par 5, et un organe de retenue inférieur désigné globalement par 6.Each retaining means 3, 4 comprises a upper retaining member designated overall by 5, and a lower retainer generally denoted by 6.

Chaque organe de retenue supérieur 5 comporte une branche rectiligne 7 s'étendant perpendiculairement à la barrette transversale 1 et une branche repliée en forme de crochet 8. Les branches 7 et 8 définissent entre elles une cavité de réception 9 pour l'article textile et une fente de réception 10 de l'article textile communiquant avec ladite cavité 9.Each upper retention member 5 has a rectilinear branch 7 extending perpendicularly to the transverse bar 1 and a branch folded into shape 8. The branches 7 and 8 define between them a receiving cavity 9 for the textile article and a receiving slot 10 of the textile article communicating with said cavity 9.

Comme on le voit sur le dessin, la branche rectiligne 7 présente une partie d'extrémité amincie 7a raccordée par une portée inclinée 7b à la partie supérieure de la branche 7.As seen in the drawing, the rectilinear branch 7 has a part thinned end 7a connected by an inclined surface 7b to the upper part of the branch 7.

La branche recourbée 8 comporte une partie rectiligne 8a inclinée par rapport à la branche rectiligne 7.The curved branch 8 has a rectilinear part 8a inclined with respect to rectilinear branch 7.

On voit sur le dessin que du fait de la configuration des branches 7 et 8, la fente de réception d'article 10 comporte une zone inférieure d'axe sensiblement parallèle à la branche rectiligne 7 et une zone supérieure débouchant dans la cavité de réception d'article et dont l'axe est sensiblement parallèle à la partie inclinée 8a de la branche 8.We see on the drawing that because of the configuration of branches 7 and 8, the slot Article 10 comprises a lower zone of axis substantially parallel to the rectilinear branch 7 and an upper zone opening into the article receiving cavity and whose axis is substantially parallel to the inclined portion 8a of the branch 8.

L'organe de retenue inférieur 6, réalisé d'un seul tenant avec l'organe de retenue 5, et donc avec la barrette transversale 1, comporte une branche rectiligne 11 et une branche recourbée en forme de crochet 12 définissant entre elles une cavité de réception d'article textile 13 débouchant sur une fente inférieure 14 de réception d'article.The lower retainer 6, made in one piece with the body of 5, and therefore with the transverse bar 1, comprises a rectilinear branch 11 and a curved hook-shaped branch 12 defining between them a receiving cavity of textile article 13 opening onto a lower slot 14 for receiving article.

Comme on le voit sur le dessin, les fentes de réception d'article, supérieure 9 et respectivement inférieure 13 sont sensiblement à l'aplomb l'une de l'autre, la distance entre les fonds des cavités, mesurée perpendiculairement à la barrette transversale 1, qui dans l'exemple illustré est de l'ordre de 25 mm, est, dans la pratique, inférieure à la hauteur de la ceinture élastique dont sont habituellement munis les slips.As seen in the drawing, the article receiving slots, upper 9 and respectively lower 13 are substantially in line with each other, the distance between the bottoms of the cavities, measured perpendicularly to the transverse bar 1, which in the illustrated example is of the order of 25 mm, is, in practice, less than the height of the elastic belt which are usually provided with the briefs.

Outre les moyens de retenue d'extrémité qui viennent d'être décrits, le cintre-présentoir selon l'invention comporte entre ceux-ci des moyens de retenue intermédiaires désignés globalement par 15 et 16, et qui comportent chacun un organe de retenue supérieur 17 et un organe de retenue inférieur 18, réalisés d'un seul tenant.In addition to the end restraining means just described, the hanger-display according to the invention comprises between these intermediate retaining means designated overall by 15 and 16, each having a retaining member upper 17 and a lower retainer 18, made in one piece.

L'organe de retenue supérieur 17 de chaque moyen de retenue intermédiaire 15, 16 est constitué d'une branche rectiligne 19 et d'une branche recourbée en forme de crochet 20 apte à s'appliquer élastiquement par son extrémité repliée contre la branche 19 en pinçant l'article textile supérieur.The upper retaining member 17 of each intermediate retaining means 15, 16 consists of a rectilinear branch 19 and a curved branch shaped hook 20 adapted to be elastically applied by its end folded against the branch 19 by pinching the upper textile article.

Chaque organe de retenue inférieur 18 des moyens de retenue intermédiaires 15, 16 comporte deux branches parallèles 21, 22 définissant entre elles une cavité de réception 23 pour l'article inférieur et une branche intermédiaire 24 reliée par une extrémité à la branche 22 et dont l'extrémité libre est dirigée vers la cavité 23. La branche intermédiaire 24 est sensiblement parallèle aux branches 21 et 22 et définit avec la branche 21 une fente communiquant avec la cavité 23 et dans laquelle est prévu un moyen de guidage d'article 25.Each lower retaining member 18 intermediate retaining means 15, 16 comprises two parallel branches 21, 22 defining between them a cavity of receiving 23 for the lower article and an intermediate branch 24 connected by a end to the branch 22 and whose free end is directed towards the cavity 23. The branch intermediate 24 is substantially parallel to the branches 21 and 22 and defines with the branch 21 a slot communicating with the cavity 23 and in which is provided a means of article guidance 25.

Dans l'exemple illustré, le cintre-présentoir comporte en outre deux moyens de retenue centraux 26 réalisés sensiblement à l'aplomb de la partie de suspension, et agencés chacun comme l'organe de retenue inférieur 18 de chaque moyen de retenue intermédiaire 15, 16, permettant de recevoir les extrémités des articles textiles, notamment des slips après repliement de celles-ci vers le haut.In the example shown, the hanger-display also comprises two means of central retainers 26 made substantially vertically above the suspension portion, and arranged each as the lower retainer 18 of each intermediate retaining means 15, 16, for receiving the ends of textile articles, including pants after folding them upwards.

Ainsi constitué, le cintre-présentoir permet d'atteindre le but recherché de mettre en place deux articles textiles en n'augmentant pas sensiblement l'encombrement par rapport à la présentation d'un seul article textile sur le cintre.Thus constituted, the hanger-display unit makes it possible to reach the desired goal of to set up two textile articles by not appreciably increasing the size compared to the presentation of a single textile article on the hanger.
