  • FIGs. 1 and 2 Basic elements of a set or a unit of a foldable stand and a cooling device are shown in Figs. 1 and 2 .
  • a complete first embodiment of the foldable stand 1 made from bendable material is shown in Fig. 1 whereas in Fig. 2 is shown the cooling device 2, whose outer dimensions in the top view are not larger than the inner dimensions of a lower opening of the foldable stand 1, which facilitates putting the foldable stand 1 onto the cooling device 2 from the top.
  • Putting the foldable stand 1 onto the cooling device 2 results in the unit or set of the foldable stand and the cooling device, which provides for the storage and cooling of various types of products, e.g. beverages, whereas outer and inner surfaces of the foldable stand 1 can be used for advertising and information purposes.
  • Another advantage of the set of the foldable stand and the cooling device, according to the invention is the possibility of easy transport from one place to another after folding the foldable body 100 together with the bendable shelves 50 in a flat, cubical package, in a manner shown in Figs. 5 and 6 .

Both side panels 10, 20 have on the inner side, adjacent to the foldable shelves 50, openings 11 for the catches 51 of the bendable shelves 50. Additionally, both side panels 10, 20 can have on the inner side adjacent to the foldable shelves 50, stabilizing openings 12 for stabilizing elements 52 of the bendable shelves 50.
  • the number of openings 11 for the catches 51 of the bendable shelves 50 and the stabilizing openings 12 for the stabilizing elements 52 can be larger than the number of the bendable shelves, as a result the foldable stand 1 is more universal as the user of the foldable stand can adjust the distances between the bendable shelves 50 depending on the dimensions of the products stored in the foldable stand.
  • the side panels 10, 20 In order to connect the side panels 10, 20 with the inner element 30 and the outer element 40 of the back panel, and the front panel 60, the side panels 10, 20 have slots or longitudinal openings 13 and catches 15 in the form of tongues, which are situated in a back area of the side panels 10, 20 and longitudinal openings or slots 16, 26 situated in a front area of the side panels 10, 20.

  • the front panel 60 has protrusions or catches 61 and at least one bending line 62 facilitating folding the foldable stand 1. Additionally, in a lower area of the side panels 10, 20 of the foldable stand, ventilation openings 14, 25 are provided, which enable the flow of a stream of air.
  • the side catches 34 situated on one side of the inner element 30 of the back panel are inserted in the vertical longitudinal openings 13 of the left side panel 10, and the same side catches 34 situated on the other side of the inner element 30 of the back panel, are inserted in the vertical longitudinal openings of the right side panel 20.
  • the side catches 34 have cavities, gaps or undercuts on the lower side, which hook on the left side panel 10 and the right side panel 20 after moving the inner element 30 of the back panel downwards.
  • the tongue-shaped catches 15 of the left side panel 10, and catches of the right side panel 20 are inserted in the vertical longitudinal openings 43 of the outer element 40 of the back panel and wrap around the side fragments of the outer side element 40, which result in a stable connection of the left side panel 10 and right side panel 20 when the back panel is formed from the inner element 30 and the outer element 40.
  • the next step is the assembly of the front panel 60, whose side catches 61 with undercuts on the lower side are inserted in the vertical longitudinal openings 16, 26 situated in the lower front part of the left side panel 10 and right side panel 20.
  • the height of the front panel 60 is lower than the height of the other panels, as a result the top fragment of the front of the foldable stand 1 is open.
  • foldable shelves 50 Into the interior of the body 100 foldable shelves 50 are mounted with side catches 51.
  • Each of the foldable shelves 50, inserted between the side panels 10, 20 of the stand, is fastened in openings 11 of the side panels 10, 20 of the foldable stand 1.
  • stiff, non-bendable shelves can be placed.
  • the shelves are bendable shelves 50, each of which, when stretched, forms a stiff and non-removable spacer between the side panels 10, 20.
  • a lower wall or a top wall of at least one bendable shelf 50 is bendable along at least one bending line which is parallel to the side panel.
