Abstract

The display case has an upper support with two lateral flaps hinged to a support panel along lateral edges of the panel. The flaps are hinged on lateral walls (5, 6) of the case such that the panel is tilted between folded and deployed positions when the case is in raised utilization position, and the panel and the flaps extend in a same plane and are superimposed with the lateral walls and a rear wall (2) of the case when the case is in folded storage position. Each lateral wall has, on its inner face opposite two racks, two slots (24, 34) to retain an elastic element (E) e.g. rubber strip. The racks and the walls are made of flat cardboard, corrugated cardboard, or plastic material.

Description

L'invention concerne un présentoir repliable à plat à déploiement automatique. En particulier, l'invention concerne un présentoir destiné à recevoir des produits sur leur lieu de vente ou de présentation.The invention relates to a flat foldable display with automatic deployment. In particular, the invention relates to a display for receiving products at their place of sale or presentation.

Ce type de présentoir présente généralement des étagères sur lesquelles sont placés les produits.This type of display usually has shelves on which are placed the products.

Il existe déjà des présentoirs repliables à plat, tels que ceux décrits dans les documents W02007/148963 ou GB997755 . Ces présentoirs présentent un panneau arrière articulé à deux panneaux latéraux entre lesquels sont placées les étagères, les unes au dessus des autres. Chaque étagère comporte des volets solidarisés aux panneaux latéraux et articulés de sorte que l'étagère soit en appui contre le panneau arrière et les panneaux latéraux lorsque ces derniers sont tous dans un même plan. Une ligne de pliage transversale peut ensuite permettre de replier le panneau arrière sur lui-même, réduisant ainsi l'encombrement du présentoir en vue de son stockage ou transport.There are already foldable flat display stands, such as those described in the documents W02007 / 148963 or GB997755 . These displays have a rear panel hinged to two side panels between which are placed the shelves, one above the other. Each shelf has shutters secured to the side panels and hinged so that the shelf is supported against the rear panel and the side panels when they are all in the same plane. A transverse fold line can then be used to fold the back panel on itself, thus reducing the bulk of the display for storage or transport.

Pour ce type de présentoir, les étagères basculent dans une position d'utilisation lorsque l'on fait pivoter les panneaux latéraux depuis une position où ils sont dans le même plan que le panneau arrière jusqu'à une position où ils se font face et forment un angle avec le panneau arrière.For this type of display, the shelves switch to a use position when the side panels are pivoted from a position where they are in the same plane as the back panel to a position where they face each other and form an angle with the back panel.

Le document W02007/ 148963 prévoit également un système de volets dans le bas du présentoir provoquant, lorsque ces volets entrent en contact avec le sol, le pivotement des panneaux latéraux et par conséquent le basculement des étagères. Cette réalisation augmente toutefois la quantité de matière utilisée. De plus, il faut maintenir le présentoir en une position debout à peu près verticale pour que ces volets entrent en contact avec le sol et provoquent le déploiement du présentoir.The document W02007 / 148963 also provides a flap system at the bottom of the display causing, when these flaps come into contact with the ground, the pivoting of the side panels and therefore the tilting of the shelves. This embodiment, however, increases the amount of material used. In addition, the display should be held in a nearly upright upright position for these shutters to contact the floor and cause the display to deploy.

Il existe donc un besoin pour un présentoir repliable à plat pouvant être déployé automatiquement de manière simple quelque soit sa position et sans aucune aide.There is therefore a need for a flat foldable display that can be automatically deployed in a simple manner regardless of its position and without any help.

A cet effet, la présente invention vise à proposer un présentoir repliable comprenant une paroi arrière pourvue de deux bords latéraux, deux parois latérales articulées à la paroi arrière le long de ses bords latéraux et au moins une étagère formée d'une paroi support articulée à des volets solidarisés aux parois latérales et arrière, le présentoir étant conformé pour être positionnable entre une position repliée de stockage dans laquelle les parois latérales s'étendent dans un même plan que la paroi arrière, la paroi support de chaque étagère étant en appui contre la paroi arrière, et une position dressée d'utilisation dans laquelle les parois latérales sont inclinées par rapport à la paroi arrière et la paroi support de chaque étagère est dans une position de support.For this purpose, the present invention aims at providing a foldable display comprising a rear wall provided with two lateral edges, two lateral walls hinged to the rear wall along its side edges and at least one shelf formed of a support wall hinged to flaps secured to the side and rear walls, the display being shaped to be positionable between a folded storage position in which the side walls extend in the same plane that the rear wall, the support wall of each shelf being in abutment against the rear wall, and an erect position of use in which the side walls are inclined relative to the rear wall and the support wall of each shelf is in a position of support.

Le présentoir selon l'invention est caractérisé en ce que chaque paroi latérale comporte, sur sa face interne en regard des étagères, des moyens de retenue d'au moins un élément élastique, l'élément élastique étant conformé et positionné pour exercer une traction suffisante sur ces parois latérales pour les maintenir et/ou ramener dans la position dressée d'utilisation du présentoir.The display unit according to the invention is characterized in that each side wall comprises, on its inner face facing the shelves, means for retaining at least one elastic element, the elastic element being shaped and positioned to exert sufficient traction on these side walls to maintain and / or return to the upright position of use of the display.

Le présentoir selon l'invention peut ainsi être pré-assemblé et livré à plat, éventuellement replié sur lui-même, et se déployer automatiquement en vue de son utilisation sous l'effet des seuls éléments élastiques tendus entre les parois latérales.The display according to the invention can thus be pre-assembled and delivered flat, possibly folded on itself, and deploy automatically for use under the effect of the only elastic elements stretched between the side walls.

Du fait de la présence d'un ou plusieurs éléments élastiques reliant directement les deux parois latérales entre elles, le déploiement du présentoir est automatique et rapide depuis la position de stockage dès lors que le mouvement des parois latérales n'est pas entravé. Il n'est ainsi pas nécessaire de placer le présentoir dans une position particulière, comme c'est le cas du présentoir décrit dans le document WO2007/148963 .Due to the presence of one or more elastic elements directly connecting the two side walls to each other, the deployment of the display is automatic and fast from the storage position when the movement of the side walls is not impeded. It is thus not necessary to place the display in a particular position, as is the case of the display shown in the document WO2007 / 148963 .

La vitesse de déploiement du présentoir de l'invention sera d'autant plus élevée que la force de traction exercée par le ou les éléments élastiques sur les parois latérales est élevée. Il est ainsi possible d'obtenir des temps d'ouverture de l'ordre de quelques secondes, par exemple de 2 à 5 secondes.The speed of deployment of the display of the invention will be even higher than the tensile force exerted by the elastic element (s) on the side walls is high. It is thus possible to obtain opening times of the order of a few seconds, for example from 2 to 5 seconds.

En outre, l'effort de traction exercé par le ou les éléments élastiques directement sur les parois latérales participe au maintien en position déployée du présentoir.In addition, the tensile force exerted by the elastic element or elements directly on the side walls contributes to maintaining the display position in the deployed position.

Avantageusement, les moyens de retenue sont disposés de sorte que l'élément élastique s'étende entre des étagères, notamment parallèlement aux parois support des étagères.Advantageously, the retaining means are arranged so that the elastic element extends between shelves, in particular parallel to the support walls of the shelves.

Ces moyens de retenue sont disposés généralement symétriquement sur chaque paroi latérale et seront par exemple répartis sur toute la hauteur du présentoir afin d'assurer un déploiement symétrique du présentoir.These retaining means are arranged generally symmetrically on each side wall and will for example be distributed over the entire height of the display to ensure a symmetrical deployment of the display.

Ils seront de préférence positionnés de sorte que l'élément élastique soit situé à proximité de la face inférieure de la paroi support d'une étagère, ceci afin de ne pas gêner la mise en place de produit(s) sur la face supérieure de cette paroi support.They will preferably be positioned so that the elastic element is located near the lower face of the support wall of a shelf, so as not to interfere with the introduction of product (s) on the upper face of this support wall.

Avantageusement, les moyens de retenue sont des fentes, qui peuvent ainsi être réalisées très facilement sur les parois latérales par simple découpe. Chaque fente présentera une forme adéquate, par exemple en forme de U, pour permettre la retenue d'un élément élastique, tel qu'une bande de caoutchouc.Advantageously, the retaining means are slots, which can thus be made very easily on the side walls by simple cutting. Each slot will have a suitable shape, for example U-shaped, to allow the retention of an elastic member, such as a rubber band.

Dans un mode de réalisation particulier de l'invention, chaque paroi latérale comprend :

  • un volet latéral articulé à un bord latéral de la paroi arrière et,
  • un panneau latéral distinct du volet latéral, ce panneau latéral présentant une ligne de pliage le séparant en deux parties, chaque partie étant solidarisée à une face du volet latéral et la recouvrant au moins partiellement.
In a particular embodiment of the invention, each side wall comprises:
  • a lateral flap hinged to a lateral edge of the rear wall and,
  • a side panel separate from the side flap, this side panel having a fold line separating it into two parts, each portion being integral with one side of the side flap and covering at least partially.

Ainsi, chaque paroi latérale est formée de trois épaisseurs superposées, ce qui permet d'obtenir une paroi particulièrement robuste et rigide, autorisant la mise en place de charges lourdes sur les étagères du présentoir.Thus, each side wall is formed of three superimposed thicknesses, which makes it possible to obtain a particularly robust and rigid wall, allowing the placing of heavy loads on the shelves of the display stand.

Le panneau latéral d'une telle paroi latérale peut comprendre les moyens de retenue de l'élément élastique.The side panel of such a side wall may include the retaining means of the elastic member.

En particulier, ces moyens de retenue pourront par exemple être disposés sur la partie du panneau latéral en regard de l'autre paroi latérale du présentoir dressé, correspondant à la face interne de la paroi latérale. Ainsi, l'autre partie du panneau latéral (correspondant à la face externe de la paroi latérale) peut entièrement servir de support d'information, son aspect visuel n'étant pas altéré par la présence d'un moyen de retenu d'élément élastique.In particular, these retaining means may for example be arranged on the side panel portion facing the other side wall of the upright display, corresponding to the inner face of the side wall. Thus, the other part of the side panel (corresponding to the outer face of the side wall) can serve entirely as an information carrier, its visual appearance not being altered by the presence of an elastic element retaining means .

En particulier, lorsque les moyens de retenue sont des fentes, une telle configuration permet d'éviter d'avoir à réaliser des découpes dans deux des trois panneaux formant les parois latérales, ce qui permet d'améliorer leur robustesse et rigidité.In particular, when the retaining means are slots, such a configuration avoids having to make cuts in two of the three panels forming the side walls, which improves their strength and rigidity.

Les parois latérales peuvent être reliées à la paroi arrière du présentoir par un de leur bord latéral. En position repliée du présentoir, les parois latérales s'étendent alors dans le prolongement de la paroi arrière, dans un même plan que celle-ci.The side walls can be connected to the rear wall of the display by one of their side edge. In the folded position of the display, the side walls then extend in the extension of the rear wall, in the same plane as the latter.

En variante, les parois latérales peuvent être reliées à la paroi arrière à une distance prédéterminée de leur bord latéral. En position repliée du présentoir, les parois latérales s'étendent alors dans un même plan que la paroi arrière, mais sont en partie superposées à celle-ci.Alternatively, the sidewalls may be connected to the rear wall at a predetermined distance from their side edge. In the folded position of the display, the side walls then extend in the same plane as the rear wall, but are partly superimposed thereon.

Les parois latérales peuvent encore présenter une structure du type de celle décrite dans les documents W02007/148963 ou GB997755 , ou toute autre structure adaptée.The side walls may still have a structure of the type described in the documents W02007 / 148963 or GB997755 , or any other suitable structure.

Tel que déjà mentionné, le présentoir selon l'invention comprend au moins une étagère formée d'une paroi support articulée à des volets solidarisés aux parois latérales et arrière.As already mentioned, the display unit according to the invention comprises at least one shelf formed of a support wall hinged to flaps secured to the side and rear walls.

Par exemple, la paroi support est articulée à un volet arrière solidarisé à la paroi arrière du présentoir, et à deux volets latéraux. Chacun de ces volets latéraux comprend une ligne de pliage oblique, par exemple inclinée à 45° par rapport à son articulation à la paroi support de l'étagère. Cette ligne de pliage oblique sépare ainsi chaque volet latéral en deux parties dont l'une seulement est articulée à la paroi support de l'étagère. Ces volets latéraux sont solidarisés aux parois latérales du présentoir par leur partie qui n'est pas articulée à la paroi support de l'étagère.For example, the support wall is articulated to a rear flap secured to the rear wall of the display, and two side flaps. Each of these side flaps comprises an oblique fold line, for example inclined at 45 ° with respect to its articulation to the support wall of the shelf. This oblique fold line thus separates each lateral flap into two parts, only one of which is articulated to the support wall of the shelf. These side flaps are secured to the side walls of the display by their part which is not articulated to the support wall of the shelf.

Cette paroi support peut elle-même être formée d'au moins trois épaisseurs superposées et solidarisées pour plus de robustesse et de rigidité. Cette configuration permet de placer sur un présentoir selon l'invention des charges supérieures à 20 kg, en particulier lorsque les parois latérales sont elles mêmes formées d'au moins 3 panneaux superposés.This support wall may itself be formed of at least three superimposed layers and secured for greater strength and rigidity. This configuration makes it possible to place on a display stand according to the invention loads greater than 20 kg, in particular when the side walls themselves are formed of at least 3 superimposed panels.

Avantageusement, la paroi support (ou chacune des épaisseurs superposées la constituant) est dépourvue de ligne de pliage et/ou de perforations, ce qui permet d'améliorer sa rigidité et sa robustesse.Advantageously, the support wall (or each of the superimposed thicknesses constituting it) is devoid of fold line and / or perforations, which makes it possible to improve its rigidity and robustness.

Des exemples de réalisation d'étagères pouvant être utilisées dans la présente invention sont décrits dans les documents W02007/ 148963 et GB997755 .Examples of embodiments of shelves that can be used in the present invention are described in the documents W02007 / 148963 and GB997755 .

Dans un autre mode de réalisation particulier, le présentoir selon l'invention peut comprendre une plinthe positionnée sous l'étagère la plus basse du présentoir. Une telle plinthe comprend un panneau de plinthe articulé à des volets solidarisés aux parois latérales du présentoir, ce panneau de plinthe comportant deux lignes d'articulation parallèles aux bords latéraux de la paroi arrière et positionnées de sorte que, en position repliée, le panneau de plinthe soit en appui contre la paroi arrière et les parois latérales, et en position dressée d'utilisation, le panneau de plinthe s'étende entre les parois latérales, parallèlement à la paroi arrière et en avant de celle-ci.In another particular embodiment, the display according to the invention may comprise a baseboard positioned under the lowest shelf of the display. Such skirting board comprises a skirting board hinged to flaps secured to the side walls of the display unit, this skirting panel having two hinge lines parallel to the side edges of the rear wall and positioned so that, in the folded position, the panel of plinth is supported against the rear wall and the side walls, and upright use, the baseboard extends between the side walls, parallel to the rear wall and in front thereof.

Les dimensions de ce panneau de plinthe pourront être choisies pour qu'il obture complètement l'espace sous l'étagère la plus basse et entre les parois latérales du présentoir lorsque ce dernier est en position d'utilisation.The dimensions of this plinth panel may be chosen so that it completely closes the space under the lowest shelf and between the side walls of the display when the latter is in the use position.

Il pourra éventuellement être disposé en retrait par rapport au bord avant de l'étagère en position d'utilisation, ou au niveau de ce bord.It may possibly be set back from the front edge of the shelf in the use position, or at this edge.

Dans un autre mode de réalisation particulier, le présentoir selon l'invention pourra présenter, à son extrémité la plus haute, un fronton comprenant un panneau de fronton et deux volets latéraux de fronton, le panneau de fronton présentant deux bords latéraux s'étendant dans le prolongement des bords latéraux de la paroi arrière, les volets latéraux de fronton étant articulés au panneau de fronton le long de ses bords latéraux.In another particular embodiment, the display unit according to the invention may have, at its highest end, a pediment comprising a pediment panel and two lateral pediment flaps, the pediment panel having two lateral edges extending in the extension of the lateral edges of the rear wall, the lateral pediment flaps being articulated to the pediment panel along its lateral edges.

Les volets latéraux du fronton sont alors montés articulés sur les parois latérales du présentoir de sorte que :

  • en position dressée d'utilisation, le panneau de fronton peut être basculé entre :
    • une position rabattue dans laquelle il est en appui contre la paroi arrière, du côté opposé aux étagères, les volets latéraux de fronton étant en appui contre les parois latérales du présentoir, et
    • une position déployée dans laquelle il s'étend verticalement au dessus du présentoir, en avant des volets latéraux de fronton,
  • en position repliée de stockage, le panneau de fronton et ses volets latéraux s'étendent dans un même plan, et sont superposés aux parois latérales et arrière du présentoir, du côté opposé aux étagères.
The lateral flaps of the pediment are then articulated on the side walls of the display so that:
  • in upright use position, the pediment panel can be tilted between:
    • a folded position in which it bears against the rear wall, on the opposite side to the shelves, the pediment lateral flaps being in abutment against the side walls of the display, and
    • an extended position in which it extends vertically above the display, in front of the lateral flaps of pediment,
  • in the folded storage position, the pediment panel and its side flaps extend in the same plane, and are superimposed on the side and rear walls of the display, the opposite side to the shelves.

Le fronton peut ainsi être pré-assemblé au présentoir, et sa mise en place peut être très facilement réalisée par simple rotation manuelle.The pediment can thus be pre-assembled at the display, and its implementation can be very easily performed by simple manual rotation.

Plus particulièrement, les volets latéraux du fronton peuvent être articulés aux parois latérales du présentoir par un axe d'articulation. Cet axe d'articulation peut être obtenu par un clip ou un rivet, ou tout autre moyen adéquat.More particularly, the lateral flaps of the pediment can be articulated to the side walls of the display unit by a hinge pin. This hinge axis can be obtained by a clip or a rivet, or any other suitable means.

Dans un autre mode de réalisation particulier, le présentoir selon l'invention pourra comprendre au moins une articulation formée dans la paroi arrière suivant une ligne transversale aux bords latéraux de ladite paroi arrière, cette articulation s'étendant au travers des parois latérales de sorte que, dans la position repliée, les parties des parois arrière et latérales situées de part et d'autre de cette articulation peuvent être repliées sur elles-mêmes de manière à se superposer, et en ce qu'il comprend au moins un élément élastique de chaque côté de ladite articulation.In another particular embodiment, the display unit according to the invention may comprise at least one hinge formed in the rear wall along a line transverse to the lateral edges of said rear wall, this hinge extending through the side walls so that in the folded position, the parts of the rear and side walls situated on either side of this articulation can be folded over on themselves so as to be superposed, and in that it comprises at least one elastic element of each side of said articulation.

Le fait de pouvoir plier le présentoir en deux permet de limiter davantage son encombrement en position repliée et permet également de bloquer le déploiement automatique du présentoir.The ability to fold the display in two further limits its size in the folded position and also blocks the automatic deployment of the display.

La présence d'au moins un élément élastique de part et d'autre de la ligne d'articulation permet de faciliter un déploiement homogène de l'ensemble du présentoir et participe également à son maintien et sa rigidité.The presence of at least one elastic element on either side of the hinge line makes it possible to facilitate a homogeneous deployment of the entire display and also contributes to its maintenance and rigidity.

Bien entendu, d'autres types de moyens pourraient être utilisés pour bloquer le déploiement automatique du présentoir, tels qu'une ou plusieurs pinces ou des bandes de cerclage du présentoir replié.Of course, other types of means could be used to block the automatic deployment of the display, such as one or more clamps or strapping bands of the folded display.

Les parois et les étagères du présentoir selon l'invention pourront être réalisées en un matériau semi-rigide par exemple choisi parmi le carton, le carton plat, le carton ondulé, les matières plastiques.The walls and shelves of the display according to the invention may be made of a semi-rigid material for example selected from cardboard, cardboard, corrugated cardboard, plastics.

Le carton peut notamment être un carton PCR (Papier et Carton Récupéré).The carton may in particular be a PCR cardboard (Paper and Recovered Cardboard).

Les différents modes de réalisation décrits ci-dessus pourront être combinés les uns avec les autres.The various embodiments described above may be combined with each other.

Les figures 1 et 2 représentent les différentes parties pour la réalisation d'un présentoir selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, ce présentoir étant montré en volume sur les figures 6 et 7 et présentant une forme générale de parallélépipède rectangle une fois monté.The Figures 1 and 2 represent the different parts for the realization of a display according to one embodiment of the invention, this display being shown in volume on the Figures 6 and 7 and having a general rectangular parallelepiped shape when mounted.

Ce présentoir 1 comprend une paroi arrière 2 pourvue de deux bords latéraux 3, 4, deux parois latérales 5, 6 articulées à la paroi arrière 2 le long de ses bords latéraux 3, 4 et au moins une étagère 7 formée d'une paroi support articulée à des volets solidarisés aux parois latérales 5, 6 et arrière 2, le présentoir étant conformé pour être positionnable entre une position repliée de stockage (figure 3) dans laquelle les parois latérales s'étendent dans un même plan que la paroi arrière, la paroi support 7a de chaque étagère étant en appui contre la paroi arrière, et une position dressée d'utilisation (figures 6, 7) dans laquelle les parois latérales 5, 6 sont inclinées par rapport à la paroi arrière 2 et la paroi support de chaque étagère s'étend en avant de la paroi arrière, dans une position de support.This display unit 1 comprises a rear wall 2 provided with two lateral edges 3, 4, two lateral walls 5, 6 hinged to the rear wall 2 along its lateral edges 3, 4 and at least one shelf 7 formed of a support wall articulated to flaps secured to the side walls 5, 6 and rear 2, the display being shaped to be positionable between a folded storage position ( figure 3 ) in which the side walls extend in the same plane as the rear wall, the support wall 7a of each shelf being in abutment with the rear wall, and an upright position for use ( Figures 6, 7 ) in which the side walls 5, 6 are inclined relative to the rear wall 2 and the support wall of each shelf extends forward of the rear wall, in a support position.

Sur la figure 1 est représenté un flan 10 lequel comprend un panneau 11 formant la paroi arrière 2 du présentoir dressé, délimité par deux bords latéraux 3, 4, parallèles dans l'exemple représenté. Le flan 10 comprend également deux volets latéraux 12, 13, articulés aux panneau 11 le long de ses bords latéraux 3, 4, par exemple par des lignes de pliage, notamment obtenues par refoulage.On the figure 1 is shown a blank 10 which comprises a panel 11 forming the rear wall 2 of the upright display, delimited by two side edges 3, 4, parallel in the example shown. The blank 10 also comprises two lateral flaps 12, 13 hinged to the panel 11 along its lateral edges 3, 4, for example by fold lines, in particular obtained by upsetting.

Le flan 10 comprend en outre une ligne d'articulation 14 transversale aux bords latéraux 3 et 4 s'étendant sur toute la largeur du panneau 11 et des volets latéraux 12 et 13. Cette ligne d'articulation 14 permet de rabattre les deux sections du flan 10 l'une sur l'autre en superposition, permettant de replier le présentoir selon la figure 3.The blank 10 further comprises a hinge line 14 transverse to the lateral edges 3 and 4 extending over the entire width of the panel 11 and the lateral flaps 12 and 13. This hinge line 14 allows to fold down the two sections of the blank 10 one over the other in superposition, to fold the display according to the figure 3 .

La figure 1 représente également deux autres flans distincts 20 et 30 destinés à former les parois latérales du présentoir avec les volets latéraux 12 et 13 du flan 10.The figure 1 also represents two other distinct blanks 20 and 30 for forming the side walls of the display with the lateral flaps 12 and 13 of the blank 10.

Chacun des flans 20, 30 forme un panneau latéral présentant une ligne de pliage 21, 31 le séparant en deux parties 22a, 22b et 32a, 32b respectivement. Lors de l'assemblage du présentoir, chaque partie 22a, 22b et 32a, 32b est solidarisée à une face du volet latéral 12, 13 correspondant et la recouvre au moins partiellement de manière à former une paroi latérale 5, 6, respectivement.Each of the blanks 20, 30 forms a side panel having a fold line 21, 31 separating it into two parts 22a, 22b and 32a, 32b respectively. During assembly of the display, each portion 22a, 22b and 32a, 32b is secured to one side of the corresponding side flap 12, 13 and covers at least partially so as to form a side wall 5, 6, respectively.

Ainsi, chaque volet latéral 12, 13 est pris en sandwich entre les parties 22a, 22b et 32a, 32b, respectivement, les parties 22a et 32a formant la face interne des parois latérales 5, 6 tandis que les parties 22b, 32b forment la face externe des parois latérales 5, 6.Thus, each side flap 12, 13 is sandwiched between the portions 22a, 22b and 32a, 32b, respectively, the portions 22a and 32a forming the inner face of the side walls 5, 6 while the portions 22b, 32b form the face. external side walls 5, 6.

Dans l'exemple, la surface des parties 22a, 32a présente une surface inférieure en hauteur à celle du volet latéral 12, 13. Chaque partie 22b, 32b présente alors un volet supplémentaire 23, 33 articulé à son extrémité supérieure suivant une ligne oblique 26, 36, et conformé pour pouvoir être rabattu sur la face interne du volet latéral 12, 13 correspondant (voir figure 5). Ce volet supplémentaire 23, 33 assure une fonction d'habillage de la partie supérieure du volet latéral et une fonction de renfort.In the example, the surface of the portions 22a, 32a has a lower surface height than that of the side flap 12, 13. Each portion 22b, 32b then has an additional flap 23, 33 hinged at its upper end along an oblique line 26 , 36, and shaped to be folded on the inner face of the side flap 12, 13 corresponding (see figure 5 ). This additional flap 23, 33 provides a dressing function of the upper part of the side flap and a reinforcement function.

Enfin, les parties 22a, 32a, comprennent les moyens de retenue 24, 34 d'un l'élément élastique E.Finally, the parts 22a, 32a comprise the retaining means 24, 34 of the elastic element E.

De manière générale, les moyens de retenue du présentoir selon l'invention sont positionnés de sorte que les éléments élastiques soient situés entre les étagères du présentoir déployé, en particulier suivant une direction parallèle à l'horizontale, et généralement parallèlement à la paroi arrière du présentoir dressé et/ou au plan formé par les parois de support des étagères.In general, the retaining means of the display according to the invention are positioned so that the elastic elements are located between the shelves of the deployed display, in particular in a direction parallel to the horizontal, and generally parallel to the rear wall of the display rack and / or the plane formed by the support walls of the shelves.

Ces moyens sont des fentes dans l'exemple représenté.These means are slots in the example shown.

De même que le flan 10, les flans 20 et 30 comportent une ligne d'articulation (ligne de pliage) 25, 35, permettant le repliement en deux sur eux-mêmes de ces flans.As well as the blank 10, the blanks 20 and 30 have a hinge line (fold line) 25, 35, allowing the folding in themselves two of these blanks.

Le flan 40 de la figure 1 est destiné à former une plinthe 8 pour le présentoir déployé, cette plinthe étant positionnée sous l'étagère la plus basse du présentoir.The blank 40 of the figure 1 is intended to form a baseboard 8 for the expanded display, this baseboard being positioned under the lowest shelf of the display.

Le flan 40 comprend un panneau de plinthe 41 articulé à des volets 42 par des lignes de pliage 43.The blank 40 comprises a plinth panel 41 hinged to flaps 42 by fold lines 43.

Ces volets 42 sont destinés à être solidarisés aux parois latérales du présentoir, sur leur face interne, plus particulièrement aux parties 22a, 32a dans l'exemple représenté.These flaps 42 are intended to be secured to the side walls of the display, on their inner face, more particularly to the parts 22a, 32a in the example shown.

Le panneau de plinthe 41 comporte deux lignes d'articulation 44 parallèles aux bords latéraux 3, 4 lorsque les volets 42 sont solidarisés aux parois latérales du présentoir.The plinth panel 41 has two hinge lines 44 parallel to the side edges 3, 4 when the flaps 42 are secured to the side walls of the display.

Ces lignes d'articulation 44 sont positionnées de sorte que, en position repliée du présentoir, le panneau de plinthe 41 soit en appui contre la paroi arrière et les parois latérales (figure 3), et en position dressée d'utilisation, le panneau de plinthe s'étende entre les parois latérales, parallèlement à la paroi arrière (ou verticalement) en avant de celle-ci (figure 7).These hinge lines 44 are positioned so that, in the folded position of the display, the plinth panel 41 bears against the rear wall and the side walls ( figure 3 ), and in upright use position, the plinth panel extends between the side walls, parallel to the rear wall (or vertically) in front of it ( figure 7 ).

Le flan 50 de la figure 1 est destiné à former un fronton 9 situé à l'extrémité la plus haute du présentoir en position dressée d'utilisation.The blank 50 of the figure 1 is intended to form a pediment 9 located at the uppermost end of the display rack upright use.

Ce flan 50 présente un panneau de fronton 51 et deux volets latéraux de fronton 52, 53, le panneau de fronton 51 présentant deux bords latéraux 54, 55 s'étendant dans le prolongement des bords latéraux 3, 4 de la paroi arrière en position dressée d'utilisation du présentoir (figure 7).This blank 50 has a pediment panel 51 and two lateral pediment flaps 52, 53, the pediment panel 51 having two lateral edges 54, 55 extending in the extension of the lateral edges 3, 4 of the rear wall in the erect position. of use of the display ( figure 7 ).

Les volets latéraux de fronton 52, 53 sont articulés au panneau de fronton 51 le long de ses bords latéraux 54, 55.The lateral pediment flaps 52, 53 are articulated to the pediment panel 51 along its lateral edges 54, 55.

En outre, les volets latéraux de fronton 52, 53 présentent une dimension supérieure à celle du panneau de fronton suivant la direction des bords latéraux 54, 55, d'un même côté du panneau de fronton 51. Sur leur partie en saillie du panneau de fronton 51, les volets latéraux de fronton présentent chacun un orifice 56.In addition, the lateral pediment flaps 52, 53 have a dimension greater than that of the pediment panel in the direction of the lateral edges 54, 55, of the same side of the pediment panel 51. On their projecting portion of the panel pediment 51, the side pediment flaps each have an orifice 56.

Des orifices correspondants 57 sont prévus dans les parois latérales 5 et 6 du présentoir, à savoir dans les parties 22b, 23, 32b, 33, 12 et 14 décrites dans le présent exemple. Ces orifices 57 correspondent lorsque le présentoir est assemblé et sont destinés à recevoir un axe (non représenté) pour l'articulation du fronton 9.Corresponding orifices 57 are provided in the side walls 5 and 6 of the display, namely in the parts 22b, 23, 32b, 33, 12 and 14 described in the present example. These orifices 57 correspond when the display stand is assembled and are intended to receive an axis (not shown) for the articulation of the pediment 9.

En particulier, les volets latéraux de fronton 52, 53 sont articulés aux parois latérales 5, 6 du présentoir, sur la face externe de ces dernières (c'est-à-dire sur leur face opposée à la face recevant les étagères).In particular, the lateral pediment flaps 52, 53 are hinged to the side walls 5, 6 of the display, on the outer face of the latter (that is to say on their face opposite to the face receiving the shelves).

Un tel montage des volets latéraux de fronton 52, 53 permet :

  • en position dressée d'utilisation, le basculement du panneau de fronton 51 entre une position rabattue (figure 6) dans laquelle il est en appui contre la paroi arrière 2, du côté opposé aux étagères, les volets latéraux de fronton 52, 53 étant en appui contre la face externe des parois latérales 5, 6 du présentoir, et une position déployée dans laquelle il s'étend verticalement au dessus du présentoir (figure 7), en avant des volets latéraux de fronton, en avant de la paroi arrière,
  • en position repliée de stockage, le panneau de fronton et ses volets latéraux s'étendent dans un même plan, et sont superposés aux faces externes des parois latérales et arrière du présentoir.
Such an assembly of the lateral flaps of pediment 52, 53 allows:
  • in upright use position, the tilting of the pediment panel 51 between a folded position ( figure 6 ) in which it bears against the rear wall 2, on the opposite side to the shelves, the lateral pediment flaps 52, 53 being in abutment against the external face of the side walls 5, 6 of the display, and an extended position in which it extends vertically above the display ( figure 7 ), in front of the pediment side flaps, in front of the rear wall,
  • in folded storage position, the pediment panel and its side flaps extend in the same plane, and are superimposed on the outer faces of the side and rear walls of the display.

La figure 2 représente un flan 60 destiné à former une étagère 7, et un flan 70 de renfort.The figure 2 represents a blank 60 intended to form a shelf 7, and a blank 70 of reinforcement.

Le flan 60 comprend un panneau formé de deux parties 61, 62 reliées par une articulation 63, par exemple une ligne de pliage formée par refoulage. Ces deux parties sont de même surface dans l'exemple et sont destinées à être superposées lorsque l'étagère est assemblée afin de former la paroi support 7a de l'étagère (figure 7). Eventuellement un renfort 70 de même dimension peut être inséré entre ces parties 61 et 62 afin de renforcer l'étagère.The blank 60 comprises a panel formed of two parts 61, 62 connected by a hinge 63, for example a fold line formed by upsetting. These two parts are of the same surface in the example and are intended to be superposed when the shelf is assembled in order to form the support wall 7a of the shelf ( figure 7 ). Optionally a reinforcement 70 of the same size can be inserted between these parts 61 and 62 to strengthen the shelf.

La partie centrale 61 est articulée à un volet arrière 64 (représenté en grisé sur la figure 2) par une ligne de pliage. Ce volet 64 est destiné à être solidarisé au panneau 11 du flan 10 formant la paroi arrière du présentoir.The central portion 61 is articulated to a rear flap 64 (shown in gray on the figure 2 ) by a folding line. This flap 64 is intended to be secured to the panel 11 of the blank 10 forming the rear wall of the display.

La partie centrale 61 est également articulée à deux volets latéraux 65, 66 par des lignes de pliage 67. Ces volets présentent une forme générale de triangle.The central portion 61 is also articulated to two lateral flaps 65, 66 by fold lines 67. These flaps have a general shape of triangle.

Chacun de ces volets latéraux 65, 66 comprend une ligne de pliage oblique 68, par exemple inclinée à 45° par rapport à la ligne de pliage 67. Cette ligne de pliage oblique 68 sépare ainsi chaque volet latéral 65, 66 en deux parties dont l'une seulement est articulée à la partie centrale 61. Ces volets latéraux 65, 66 sont solidarisés aux parois latérales du présentoir par leur partie qui n'est pas articulée à la partie centrale 61 (cette partie a été grisée sur la figure 2).Each of these lateral flaps 65, 66 comprises an oblique fold line 68, for example inclined at 45 ° with respect to the folding line 67. This oblique fold line 68 thus separates each lateral flap 65, 66 into two parts, one of which only one is articulated to the central portion 61. These side flaps 65, 66 are secured to the side walls of the display by their part which is not articulated to the central portion 61 (this part has been grayed out on the figure 2 ).

Les parties grisées du flan 60 sont destinées à être solidarisées aux parois latérales et arrière du présentoir.The gray portions of the blank 60 are intended to be secured to the side and rear walls of the display.

En général, la solidarisation des différentes parois entre elles est réalisée par collage.In general, the joining of the different walls between them is carried out by gluing.

Les éléments du présentoir décrits en référence aux figures 1 et 2 sont assemblés de la manière suivante.The display elements described with reference to Figures 1 and 2 are assembled in the following manner.

Les étagères 7 sont assemblées par collage du renfort 70 entre les parties 61 et 62, la partie 62 étant destinée à former le dessus de l'étagère lorsque celle-ci est assemblée au présentoir.The shelves 7 are assembled by bonding the reinforcement 70 between the parts 61 and 62, the portion 62 being intended to form the top of the shelf when it is assembled to the display.

Les flans 20 et 30 sont assemblés aux volets 12 et 13 du flan 10 tel que décrit plus haut.The blanks 20 and 30 are assembled to the flaps 12 and 13 of the blank 10 as described above.

Les flans 10, 20 et 30 s'étendent alors dans un même plan.The blanks 10, 20 and 30 then extend in the same plane.

Les étagères assemblées sont ensuite solidarisées au panneau 11 et aux parties 22a et 32a par leurs volets 64, 65 et 66.The assembled shelves are then secured to the panel 11 and the parts 22a and 32a by their flaps 64, 65 and 66.

Les volets 42 du panneau de plinthe sont solidarisés aux parties 22a et 32a.The flaps 42 of the plinth panel are secured to the parts 22a and 32a.

Les volets 52, 53 du fronton sont montés articulés sur les parois latérales 5, 6.The flaps 52, 53 of the pediment are hingedly mounted on the side walls 5, 6.

L'ensemble ainsi formé est alors replié sur lui-même par rotation autour des articulations 14, 25, 35 qui se superposent.The assembly thus formed is then folded on itself by rotation around the joints 14, 25, 35 which are superimposed.

Des élastiques E peuvent alors être insérés dans les fentes 24, 34, ces élastiques étant choisis pour être sous tension de manière à exercer une traction sur les parois latérales.E elastics can then be inserted into the slots 24, 34, these elastics being selected to be under tension so as to exert traction on the side walls.

Dès lors, le présentoir peut être livré assemblé en occupant un minimum de volume.Therefore, the display can be delivered assembled occupying a minimum of volume.

Les étapes du déploiement du présentoir ainsi assemblé sont représentées sur les figures 3 à 7. Il suffit de déplier le présentoir par rotation autour de l'articulation 14 (flèche de la figure 4) jusqu'à ce que les sections de la paroi arrière 2 séparées par l'articulation 14 soient à nouveau dans un même plan, les éléments élastiques exercent alors une traction suffisante pour rapprocher les parois latérales 5, 6 du présentoir et mettre en forme les étagères 7 et la plinthe 8. Les étagères sont alors en position d'utilisation et peuvent supporter des produits. Il reste ensuite à basculer le fronton 9 par simple rotation (flèche figure 6).The stages of the deployment of the assembled display stand are represented on the Figures 3 to 7 . Just unfold the display by rotation around the joint 14 (arrow of the figure 4 ) until the sections of the rear wall 2 separated by the hinge 14 are again in the same plane, the elastic elements then exert sufficient traction to bring the side walls 5, 6 of the display and shape the Shelves 7 and baseboard 8. The shelves are then in use position and can support products. It then remains to switch the pediment 9 by simple rotation (arrow figure 6 ).

La mise à plat du présentoir se fait en réalisant ces opérations en sens inverse :

  • basculement du fronton 9 vers l'arrière contre la face externe de la paroi arrière 2 du présentoir,
  • écartement des parois latérales 5, 6 afin de les amener dans le même plan que la paroi arrière 2 en exerçant une force allant à l'encontre de la traction des éléments élastiques E,
  • blocage du présentoir « à plat » en le repliant sur lui-même par rotation autour de l'articulation 14, ou par tout autre moyen adapté (décrochage des éléments élastiques, cerclage du présentoir à plat, ....).
The flattening of the display is done by performing these operations in the opposite direction:
  • tilting of the pediment 9 towards the rear against the outer face of the rear wall 2 of the display,
  • spacing the side walls 5, 6 to bring them in the same plane as the rear wall 2 by exerting a force against the traction of the elastic elements E,
  • blocking the display "flat" by folding it on itself by rotation around the hinge 14, or by any other suitable means (unhooking of the elastic elements, strapping the display flat, ....).
