Definitions
- the present invention relates to a base or base stand for display units, of the type comprising:
- a base for display units of the type referred to above is for example described in the French patent application No. FR 2781304 , as likewise in the German utility model No. DE 94156663 .
- the closed side wall referred to above is defined by a first pair of parallel opposite sides and a second pair of parallel opposite sides, whilst the aforesaid foot formations are formed by folded portions of the box body itself.
- the set of reinforcement panels envisages a first row of reinforcement panels, which are arranged parallel to a first pair of opposite sides of the side wall of the box body, and a second row of reinforcement panels, which slot into the panels of the first row and are parallel to the second pair of opposite sides of the side wall.
- the bottom parts of the box body envisage appropriate slits, which are engaged by bottom appendages of one of the two rows of panels so as to stiffen the underlying foot formations and anchor the set of reinforcement panels to the box body. Furthermore, in the aforesaid bases combined cardboard/wood or cardboard/plastic materials are used, where the wood or plastic materials are generally used for the resting feet.
- DE9003424 discloses a base according to the preamble of Claim 1.
- the object of the present invention is to improve the aforesaid type of bases, rendering them structurally simpler and constituted by a single material.
- a further object is to improve the above bases also from the standpoint of their stiffness and/or resistance to loads.
- Designated by the reference number 100 in the figures is a base that may be used, in general, as base for exhibiting products, and in particular as base for display units for foodstuffs, such as, for example, confectionery products.
- the base 100 described herein may be used in combination with display units of any type, morphology, and appearance.
- the aforesaid base is provided as cardboard-design product, and comprises a box body 2 having a side wall 3, a top part 4, and a bottom part 5. It should be noted that the shape of the box body is not in itself an important element with respect to the main innovative characteristics that will be described hereinafter.
- the side wall 3 is preferably closed according to the shape in plan view of a parallelogram, specifically a rectangle, and defines a first pair of parallel opposite sides 7, 8 and a second pair of parallel opposite sides 9, 10.
- the top part 4 closes the side wall 3 at the top, defining a resting surface, on which to set the display unit to be associated to the base 100.
- the top part of the box body is defined by a plurality of foldable flaps 4 I 4 II 4 III 4 IV , each carried by a respective side of the side wall.
- the base 100 further comprises, associated to the bottom part 5, a plurality of foot formations 11, 12, 13, 14 (represented schematically in Figure 1 ), designed to rest on the floor and designed to keep the base 100 with its bottom part 5 detached from the floor so as to enable transportation of the display unit with a fork-lift truck.
- the four foot formations are located in the proximity of the four corners of the box body.
