Description

Exhibitor cabinet for ceramic products.

Object of the invention

The present invention relates to a piece of furniture display that has been specially designed for elements ceramics, such as tiles, tiles and the like, of the type of those that on a fixed structure are movable a series of carrier panels of said products.

The object of the invention is to achieve a considerable simplification in the supporting structure of the furniture, with the consequent reduction in the weight of the same and with the consequent cost reduction that this implies.

Background of the invention

There is a great diversity of solutions for the exhibition of ceramic products, based on sliding panels, which they usually do on horizontal and overlapping planes when it comes to ceramic products intended for coating of floors, and on vertical planes when it comes to products Ceramics intended for walls.

In the exhibitors with this last application, each panel is mounted between two parallel rails, one upper and a lower one, so that this arrangement is a structure voluminous and heavy, since both the upper rails and the Bottoms must be mounted or supported by respective racks upper and lower, related to the structure elements furniture vertical.

This involves maneuverability problems to the when assembling and disassembling the furniture, as well as when change position within the same establishment at the same time that its own volumetry determines an occupation of space that It would be desirable to reduce.

Description of the invention

The display unit proposed by the invention solves the problem fully satisfactorily previously exposed, in the different aspects commented, constituting a substantially lighter and less element bulky than conventional performance furniture similar, and without prejudice to its structural rigidity.

For this and more specifically, the furniture it is constituted from a structural element in which participates a rear and half vertical upright finished off by its lower limb on a sheet or plate projected frontally, stiffened by reinforcement profiles, and by its tip superior and a horizontal cantilever profile to which they are in solidarity, by its inferior and uniformly distributed face, a plurality of transverse guides or sliding elements for respective mobile panel holder.

This structural element is complemented by two rear or rear structures, intended to be fixed laterally and coplanarly to the vertical upright by means of screwing, rear equipped with projected extreme plates also frontally, that like the lower plate associated with the central upright are equipped with holes, for fixing both to one to another of a rectangular base in which a plurality of guides or rails in number coinciding with that of existing guides in the upper cantilever profile, but considerably longer than the latter, specifically of length close to the total width of the furniture, fixing this base by screwing the plate and the plates under it, so that with the back structure it configures a straight dihedral facing forward and up, intended to be occupied by the mobile panel holders, each of which It is structured by a frame with lower wheels for sliding on the guides of the base and with guides type plates upper, for lateral stabilization on the guides in solidarity with the upper cantilever profile of the structure, receiving each frame to a panel provided with hooks for its coupling to such a frame, and these panels being the true ones sustaining elements of ceramic pieces or products.

The structure described is complemented by a vertical tensioner located between the upper cantilever profile and the lower plate of the central structural element, whose purpose is maintain parallelism between the said cantilever profile and the base lower.

On each of the two rear structures and side mounted an extendable arm frontally topped on a adjustable focus, obviously intended to illuminate the material ceramic set on mobile panels.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

In view of the figures outlined you can be observed as in the furniture that the invention proposes participates a structural and central element based on a vertical upright and rear (1), preferably materialized in a section tube rectangular, which is fixed by welding a wide plate or lower horizontal sheet (2), projected forward, equipped with multiple holes (3) for fixing to it by screwing other elements, as will be seen below, and of profiles (4) that stiffen its structure, while at the upper extremity of the upright (1) is fixed, also by welding, a profile horizontal and cantilever (5), projected forward, also materialized in a rectangular section tube, whose face lower are a plurality of guides (6) or elements sliders, ribbed and concavity facing down.

This structural element is complemented, as it follows from the observation in figure 2, with a couple of rear and fixed structures (7) and (8), located on both sides of the upright (1) and fixed to the latter by screwing, according to the arrows represented in said figure 2, each of these structures (7) and (8) materializing in a frame  rectangular conveniently stiffened by crossbars (9) and being in solidarity with the lower and outer vertex of each of they a horizontal plate (10), projected forward as the plate (2) and provided like the latter with holes (11) for screwing a wide base (12), which is screwed also to the holes (3) of the plate (2) and which is provided of a plurality of guides or transverse rails (13), which extend from one end of the base to the other (12) and that are finished off turn at its own ends by means of stops (14) that limit the travel for mobile panels, as will be seen later.

Logically both the number of guides (13) established on the basis (12), such as distancing or relative positioning of them, is coincident with the number of guides (6) existing in the upper cantilever profile (5), with the sole exception that the latter, that is, the guides (6), are considerably shorter than the lower guides (13).

Each mobile element materializes in a panel holder (15), as shown in the figure 4, based on two lateral uprights that corresponds to the own reference (15) and topped by its lower extremity on wheels (16) at the same time that they are joined together by their limb upper by means of a profile (17) in guide functions, movable in one of the grooves defined by the upper guides (6) of the fixed structure, also relating said uprights (15) by means of a series of crossbars (18) that can also be used as means for fixing, by hanging, for the panels (19) to be support the ceramic pieces, which can be simple boards of wood, melamine or similar, whether or not provided with a frame metallic that finishes its edges, and in any case provided with rear hooks (20) fixed by screwing or by any other means in strategically distributed points of the panel (19) and capable of attaching to the crossbars (18) of the panel holder (15).

These mobile panel holders (15) and consequently the panels (19) associated with them, they have a width approximately half the length of the guides (13) of the base (12), so that they are able to adopt two extreme positions on the latter, one in which the different panels cover each other, the one shown in the figure 6, and another in which any panel leaves the situation of confrontation with respect to the remaining ones, resulting directly visible regardless of the level in depth it occupies, keeping said panels permanently stable on respective and imaginary vertical planes, thanks to the short top guides (6), in which they play their own guides (17).

In order to ensure that the cantilever profile (5) permanently maintain its horizontality, and consequently, in order to prevent the panel holders (15) from being able to decouple from its guides, it is planned that between said profile in cantilever (5) and base (12) be established, as noted especially in figure 1, a tensioner (21) duly in solidarity with both elements, tensor that is located behind the first panels, that is, it is hidden by them allowing to display the first complete panel.

At the upper edge of each of the structures rear and fixed (7-8) are respective solidarity lighting elements materialized each of them in a kind of flat box (22) in which the mechanism of electronic ignition or ballasts, from which they emerge frontally telescopic rods (23) finished off in an adjustable focus (24), of adjustable positioning both in regard to your proximity to the panels (19) as to the beam angle light on the panel surface, in order to get a Optimum lighting of ceramic products.

Finally and as a complement to the structure described, the furniture incorporates a vertical and decorative element (25) on your front, to accommodate any type of information that is deem convenient, such as the logo of the establishment, information on the products displayed, advertising information in general, etc., element that can be of any size, material and configuration, since it has no function structural, being able to be made of cardboard, plastic, wood, sheet metal or other appropriate material, and can also go backlit or not.
