DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a display device for tires and wheels, and particularly to a store having a small display space such as a gas station, for efficiently storing, storing and displaying tires and wheels according to the situation of each store. The present invention relates to a display device capable of performing the display.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Tires of automobiles have a considerable weight and volume, require a considerable space for storage, storage and display, and naturally require related parts such as wheels. Conventionally, a display device for a heavy tire and a display device for a relatively lightweight wheel have generally been installed separately. For example, as a tire display device, a tire storage rack is disclosed in JP-A-8-191744, and as a wheel display device, a wheel rack is disclosed in Utility Model Registration No. 3035832.

[0003]

However, in a store with a small display space such as a gas station and a small number of tires sold, separately installing tire and wheel display devices deteriorates space efficiency.

The storage shelf described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 8-191744 has a main purpose of storing tires for a long period of time, and fastens a receiving shelf support member with bolts and nuts in the front-rear direction in a frame body. It is fixed by inserting pins formed at both ends of the receiving shelf extending in the left-right direction into holes formed in the receiving shelf support member. In this structure, the receiving shelf is easily detached, the position in the vertical direction is difficult to change, and the appearance from the side of the storage shelf is poor, and furthermore, the storage and display of wheels is not considered.

The main purpose of the wheel rack disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Registration No. 3035832 is to display relatively lightweight wheels, and is composed of a bracket, a shelf, and a holding member. This structure is unsuitable for displaying heavy objects such as tires because of its strength. In addition, the large number of parts causes an increase in cost, and it is difficult to move left and right after placing the wheel on the holding member.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and it is easy to set or change the height position, has a good appearance from the side, has a simple structure, is strong, and has a mixed display of tires and wheels. It is an object of the present invention to provide a tire and wheel display device capable of changing the display.

[0007]

According to the present invention, the above-mentioned problem is solved as follows. (1) Tire, wheel provided with two front and rear tire receiving members suspended in the left and right direction on pillars installed at four corners, and a front and rear wheel display stand mounted on these tire receiving members. The display device according to claim 1, wherein a locking hole is vertically formed in an opposing surface of the support pillar in a front-rear direction, and a locking piece of a bracket fixed to both ends of the tire receiving material in a front-rear direction is provided. By engaging the stop holes, the tire receiving member is attached to the column such that the height of the tire receiving member can be changed, and the tire receiving member is attached to the lower surface of a rectangular frame of the wheel display stand. By the holding part that fits from above so that it can slide in the
The wheel display stand is mounted on the pair of front and rear tire receiving members.

(2) In the above item (1), the front and rear ends of the rectangular frame of the wheel display stand are projected from the tire receiving member in the front and rear direction.

(3) In the above item (1) or (2), the front and rear ends of the rectangular frame of the wheel display stand are raised upward.

[0010]

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the display device of the present invention. As is clear from this figure,
The display device consists of connecting members (2) at the upper and lower ends of the pillars (1) at the four corners.
The body connected by (3) to form a frame structure is the main body. A series of locking holes (4) are formed in the front and rear struts (1) facing each other in the front-rear direction.

The tire receiving member (5) is locked in the locking hole (4). As shown in FIG. 2, the tire receiving member (5) has brackets (7) attached to both ends of the pipe (6) in a direction perpendicular to the pipe axis, for example, by welding. Has a plurality of engagement pieces (8).

[0012] A pipe (6) is attached to the support (1) before and after the display device.
Position so that it extends in the left-right direction.
(7) is opposed to the locking hole (4) of the column (1), and the locking piece (8) is engaged with the locking hole (4) of the column (1). .

A wheel display stand (9) is bridged between two front and rear tire receiving members (5) mounted at the same height position. As shown in FIG. 3, the wheel display stand (9) is mainly composed of a frame obtained by bending a pipe or a round bar (10a) into an elongated rectangular shape. A holding portion (11) having a downward U-shaped cross section that is loosely fitted from above is welded.

The pipe material or round bar material (10a) constituting the wheel display stand (9) is reinforced by the reinforcing material (10b) at the holding portion (11), and the pipe material or round material constituting the frame is formed. The round bar material (10a) protrudes forward and backward by a distance (d) from the holding portion (11), that is, the tire receiving material (5), and its tip portion (10c)
Is bent upward.

For installation, the pair of front and rear tire receiving members (5) are attached at any desired height,
On the lower tire receiving member (5), the tire (12) is placed in an up-and-down direction so that the tread surface thereof can be seen. In this mounting position, a large number of tires (12) can be accommodated.

In the example shown in FIG. 1, the connecting member (3) extending in the left-right direction among the lower connecting members (3) is a tire receiving member.
It is made of the same pipe material as (5), and the tire (1
2) is mounted, and the outer peripheral curved surface of the tire (12) is stably supported at two points eccentric from its center of gravity.

A wheel display stand (9) is placed on the upper pair of tire receiving members (5). Wheel display stand
(9), as shown by the arrow in FIG. 3, the downwardly U-shaped holding portion (11) is simply fitted into the tire receiving material (5) from above, so that the tire receiving material (5) It can be slid in the left and right directions and moved. As shown in FIG. 1, the wheel (13) is placed on the wheel display stand (9) in an upright state such that the characteristic pattern surface thereof can be seen.

Since the wheel display stand (9) is a frame as described above, the outer peripheral curved surface of the wheel (13) is stably supported at two points offset from its center of gravity. In addition, since it is long in both the front and rear directions by the distance (d), three wheels (13) can be mounted on the same wheel display stand (9) as a standard.

[0019]

According to the present invention, the following effects can be obtained. (a) According to the first aspect of the present invention, the tires and wheels can be mixedly displayed, and the tires and wheels can be efficiently stored, stored, and displayed even in a store having a small display space.

Also, since only a pair of front and rear tire receiving members are attached to the frame structure of the display device so that the height position thereof can be adjusted, the structure is simple and strong. Therefore, the height position can be easily set and changed, and the appearance from the side is also good.

(B) According to the second aspect of the present invention, since the front and rear ends of the rectangular frame of the wheel display stand protrude from the tire receiving material in the front and rear direction, the number of wheels to be mounted can be increased. In addition to the above, the wheel display stand on which the wheels are placed can easily change the display position in the left-right direction by sliding left and right using the portion protruding from the tire receiving material as a handle.

(C) According to the third aspect of the present invention, since the front and rear ends of the rectangular frame of the wheel display stand are raised upward, displacement of the mounted wheel is prevented, and the wheel is reliably dropped. Can be prevented.
