  • a number of front glasses are provided, similarly carried by longitudinally spaced supporting arms and adapted to be individually pivotable and/or removable.
  • At least one sliding member is provided in the upper part of the front glass, adapted to be supported against the supporting bar while the front glass is moved along the slide bar.
  • the front glass is adapted, in the service position, to block access to the refrigerated compartment of the basin section from the customer side, and the lower edge of the front glass is supported against the upper face of the front edge of the basin section, and, the hook member of the front glass is supported against the pin of the supporting arm, the refrigerated compartment of the basin section thus being open on the service side.
  • the front glass is adapted, in the self-service position, to block the refrigerated compartment of the basin section on the service side, and the edge of the front glass incorporating the hook member is supported against the wall of the service part of the basin section, and, the front glass is supported, at its end edges, against the slide and supporting bar, the refrigerated compartment of the basin section thus being open on the self-service side.
  • the front glass is, in the combined service and self-service position, detached from the refrigeration equipment.
  • Figures 1 to 6 are end-views of a preferred example of the refrigeration equipment 10, with the upper part of the basin section and the overlying glass-case section showing.
  • the refrigeration equipment 10 has two ends and an intermediate, typically longitudinal basin section 11 consisting of a basin-like frame structure which preferably stands on a floor or a similar planar surface.
  • the basin section 11 has a refrigerated compartment for foodstuffs and other similar products, and, as known per se, the basin section is provided with heat regulation and airflow control to keep the refrigerated compartment and the products therein at a desired temperature.
  • the longitudinal front wall of the frame structure of the basin section 11, i.e. its customer-side wall, is lower in height than the longitudinal rear wall of the frame structure, i.e.
  • the rear wall structure forms a service section 12 having a substantially horizontal service counter 16 at the top.
  • a wall 19 extending upwards, made of glass or some other material, is provided at the front edge of the basin section 11. The wall 19 delimits the refrigerated compartment and, in addition, serves as an airflow guiding element.
  • the refrigeration equipment 10 also comprises supporting arms 13 carried by the service part 12 of the basin section 11, at a distance from each other in the longitudinal direction, and obliquely extending upwards from the rear wall of the basin section, in a self-service direction.
  • the upper part of the supporting arm 13 carries longitudinally spaced supporting plates 17 to support an upper counter 18 receiving, in a service situation, any purchased products from the staff, to be picked up by the customer.
  • the refrigeration equipment 10 comprises at least two supporting arms 13 disposed at both ends of the refrigeration equipment 10.
  • the longitudinally spaced supporting arms 13 of the refrigeration equipment 10 can also be more in number.
  • the refrigeration equipment 10 comprises at least one longitudinally extending front glass 20, supported, at its both ends, against the supporting arms 13 of the refrigeration equipment 10.
  • the refrigeration equipment 10 can comprise a greater number of front glasses 20, similarly supported against longitudinally spaced supporting arms 13 and adapted to be individually pivotable and/or removable.
  • the supporting arm 13 carries a slide bar 14 and a supporting bar 15, serving as a guiding and supporting element while the front glass 20 is moved from the service position to the self-service position, and vice versa.
  • the upper end of the supporting arm 13 comprises a pin 22 to removably and pivotably carry the front glass 20 by means of a hook member 21 fixed to the upper edge of the front glass 20.
