Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a pivoting device for display means, for example a panel, a heat-sealed bag or a stopper/message.
- In stores, supermarkets and more generally in any environment dedicated to the sale of products, there is a need for displaying special offers on some products or indicating the categories of the products on the shelf.
- Display devices comprising a display panel hung to a rod supported by one or more rigid stands resting against a shelf are known. The rod extends horizontally in a direction substantially orthogonal to the shelf by projecting therefrom, said panel being hung close to the outermost end of the rod, close to the innermost one being associated with said stands.
- Said structure allows the construction of a horizontal rod flag to be simulated, with the panel lying on a vertical plane orthogonal to the shelf.
- If a user hits the panel, the rod disadvantageously rotates about a vertical axis thus bringing the panel closer to the shelf and thus limiting the visual effect on the next user. A series of impacts may bring the panel close to the shelf by suppressing its function completely.
- If the stands were fixed to the shelf, an impact would be dangerous because of the poor flexibility of the rod which would also risk breaking.
- As disclosed for example in
patent US-6932226 , supports for rod-less display panels are known. Said supports have a certain flexibility about a vertical axis, but require the panel to be displayed close to the edge of the shelf, thus limiting the attracting power on the user. Moreover, said supports are only suitable for single panels. - It is the object of the present invention to manufacture a display device with a horizontal rod for display panels which is easy to be made, light, not bulky, cost-effective and which overcomes the problems of the display means mentioned hereinabove, in particular is well visible to the user.
- According to the invention, such an object is achieved by a pivoting display device, characterized in that it includes a body pivoting about a first axis, which can be coupled to supporting means and rigidly connected to a coupling member of a rod oriented according to a second axis and adapted to support display means, said first axis being orthogonal to said second axis.
- These and other features of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description of a practical embodiment thereof, shown by way of a non-limiting example with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein:
-
Figure 1 shows a perspective view of a display device according to the present invention; -
Figure 2 shows a perspective view of the display device in different positions following an induced pivoting movement; -
Figure 3 shows a plan bottom view of the display device; -
Figure 4 shows an exploded perspective view of the display device; -
Figure 5 shows a sectional view according to line V-V inFigure 3 ; -
Figure 6 shows a perspective view of a display device secured to a shelf; -
Figure 7 shows a side view of the display device; -
Figure 8 shows a perspective view of a display device in an upside-down configuration; -
Figure 9 shows a perspective view of a display device with different display means. - A
display device 1 according to the present invention comprises a pivotingmember 2 slidingly associated with afastening block 3. - As is apparent from observing
Figure 1 , for example, said pivotingmember 2 comprises a pivotingbody 4 adapted to connect acoupling member 5 of arod 6 to aplate 7 to be coupled with saidfastening block 3. - The pivoting
body 4 includes twoconcave surfaces 41 with opposite concavity, delimited by twoconcave edges 43, again with opposite concavities. - Said
concave surfaces 41 end on thelower side 72 of saidplate 7 diverging from each other, thus defining a throughhole 42 with a substantially triangular section (Figure 5 ). - Each
edge 43 splits into twoportions hole 42. - Said
concave surfaces 41 have a parabolic pattern. - The
coupling member 5 is substantially acylinder 51 which is hollow on top in one piece along a directrix thereof with said pivotingbody 4 and open at the bottom along another directrix for an easier coupling withrod 6, which has twoside grooves 61 which can be slidingly coupled with tworails 52 present in thehollow cylinder 51. - The
edges 43 end at the bottom on saidhollow cylinder 51 at a directrix thereof. - Said
plate 7 has twoedges 71 on top adapted to be slidingly coupled to astep 31 of saidblock 3. - There are
male members 72 on the inner side of theedges 71 adapted to be coupled tofemale members 32 on the outer surface of block 3 (Figure 4 ) for correctly positioning the pivotingbody 4 with respect toblock 3. - The
fastening block 3 may be replaced by any other fastening member, for example with T hinges which are embedded in the slits of a magnet. - Said
block 3 may include magnetic members on thetop surface 32 thereof, to be coupled to thebottom surface 11 of a shelf 10 (Figure 6 ). -
Block 3 may be coupled to any supporting means, for example a non-necessarily metal, horizontal surface, by means of adhesives or suctions cups or other coupling systems. -
Plate 7 andblock 3 may form a single coupling body. -
Rod 6 may be associated with adisplay panel 12 by means of hooks 13 (Figure 1 ). -
Plugs 14 close a cavity ofrod 6. - Alternatively,
rod 6 may be simply tubular in shape with a slit to insert a thin display panel, for example a simple paper sheet. The sliding coupling between therod 6 and thehollow cylinder 51 occurs by simple friction at the tangency points inside saidhollow cylinder 51. - By observing
Figure 2 , it is possible to understand the pivoting movement of the pivotingmember 2 which consists of an oscillating rotation about a vertical axis V (see the arrows at the bottom). -
Rod 6 which in a rest position is oriented according to the axis O orthogonal to the axis S of the shelf (Figure 6 ), may also rotate about said axis V. - In use, if a user hits the
rod 6, the latter rotates about the axis V in the direction imposed by the impact and then elastically goes back to the initial position. - In the practice, starting from an initial position according to the axis O,
rod 6 oscillates about the axis V between a position 6' with a directrix O' and aposition 6" with a directrix O" until returning to theinitial position 6 with a directrix O. - The pivoting
body 4 advantageously deforms without breaking, in particular due to theconcave surfaces 41 and theconcave edges 43 which are very thin as compared to the width ofsaid surfaces 41, thus ensuring significant stability ofrod 6 along its display directrix O. - The through
hole 42 increases the deformation and elastic return capability of the pivotingbody 4. -
Rod 6 may have the desired length, allowing an easy visual effect for the user without the risk of injuries and ensuring that after the impact thedisplay panel 12 returns to its initial position: in fact, a "waving" effect is generated which attracts the following user even more. - As shown in
Figure 8 ,device 1 according to the invention may be turned upside down, i.e.,plate 7 is at the bottom whilerod 6 is on top. The above-described innovative features as regards the pivoting movement do not change. -
Figure 9 shows adisplay device 1 according to the invention with different display means, i.e., anadvertising banner 50 lifted with respect to the axis O ofrod 6 by means of avertical support 51 connected torod 6 by means of anopening 52 inside which the outer end ofrod 6 engages. The above-described innovative features as regards the pivoting movement do not change.
