Description

DESCRIPTION

  The present invention relates to a device for exposing and distributing objects or flat documents of varying shapes such as business cards or postcards.

  There is currently no modular device in size and in the form of flat document display.

  The device according to the invention thus makes it possible to remedy this lack.

  It comprises according to a first feature the use of cylindrical distributors pierced with a hole in the center, divided into n 'sectors, each of the sectors filled the reservoir function and are separated by stiffeners.

  Each distributor has protuberances allowing a perfect locking in rotation as well as an adequate vertical stacking.

  Each sector of the dispenser comprises an inclined plane allowing a better advance of the documents and a stop perpendicular to this inclined plane allowing the support of the documents.

  Each dispenser has an elastic passing into orifices and behind the document blocks allowing the advancement thereof.

  There are several solutions to achieve the advanced documents: - A cylindrical weight is positioned on the slope behind the block of documents to advance them.

  - A spring system + rod forming a piston acting on a plate located behind the block of documents allows the advance of these.

  An opening is made in front of each sector allowing the taking of documents.

  Once the number of distributors has been defined, they are stacked on a support provided for this purpose. This support can is designed in many ways.

  A first would be characterized in that said support comprises a foot (type foot parasol) in which a tube is blocked vertically, a tube of smaller diameter is attached to the end of this tube. An upper tube fitting on said tube on which is fixed a rotary handle, and optionally a cylindrical stop for blocking in vertical translation distributors.

  A second would be characterized in that the support comprises a base in which is introduced by force a tube. The rotary handle is fixed on the upper tube of greater diameter and possibly a cylindrical stop for blocking in vertical translation the distributors this to install the said device on a counter.

  A third would be characterized in that the support comprises a mat 90 bent whose rectangular plate is welded at its end for fixing to the wall. A tube of smaller diameter is force-fitted at the other end. The rotary handle is fixed on the upper tube and optionally a cylindrical stop blocks in vertical translation distributors this to install the said device against a wall or a partition.

  The device is capped by a cylindrical cover and an upper decoration which are fixed on the upper tube.

  An advertising insert of varying shape and size is also provided under the rotating handle.

  Figure 1-8 illustrates the invention on its basic vertical display.

  With reference to this drawing the device comprises a handle (6) fitted on the tube (7) and immobilized by the locking of the two screws (V 1). The stop (5) is positioned above the handle (6) and is locked with the stop screw (V2).

  The elastics (4) are introduced into the orifices (A) of the distributors (3).

  The document blocks are positioned in the sectors taking care to pass the rubber band behind, then stack the number of distributors (3) necessary. The assembly is fitted on the tube (7), a cover (2) covers the last distributor. The upper decoration (1) fits around the tube (7) and a screw (V3) passes through the assembly from one side to the other.

  The tube (8) is fitted into the tube (9), the locking in translation and in rotation is achieved by means of two rivets (X). The tube (9) is pressed into the foot (10).

  The upper assembly (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) is fitted on the tube (8) of the lower part (8) (9) (10).
