As shown in FIG. 9, the mounting frame 8 has a front portion 8a into which the lower portion of the front plate 3 is inserted, and is formed in a single groove shape to form an angle corresponding to the front portion 6a of the insertion frame 6. And is inclined inward. As shown in FIG. 11, a rear portion 8b into which the lower portion of the rear plate 4 is inserted is formed in two grooves, and is inclined inward at an angle corresponding to the rear portion 6a of the insertion frame 6. Further, as shown in FIG. 7, a side portion 8c into which a lower portion of the side plate 5 is inserted is formed in a single groove shape with an open rear side, and a screw hole 8d into which the screw 7 is inserted is directed upward. (Corresponding to the screw hole 5f on the lower side of the protection frame 5c of the side plate 5). The front part 8a and the rear part 8b
Are mounted on the upper surface of the wall material 1c of the flat showcase 1. The side portion 8c is formed in a U-shape, is fitted into the wall material 1c of the flat showcase 1, and has
e is fixed by a protruding screw 9 screwed to e.

The shelf plate 10 is formed by reinforcing four sides of an elongated glass plate 10a having substantially the same width as the top plate 2 with a protection frame 10c made of a U-shaped cross section through a packing material 10b. As shown in FIG. 6, a mounting piece 10d is integrally provided on a side portion of the protection frame 10c. A screw hole 10e into which the screw 7 is inserted is formed in the mounting piece 10d (corresponding to the screw hole 5d of the glass plate 5a of the side plate 5).

In the modification of the flat showcase 1 according to this embodiment, first, the mounting frame 8 is fitted into the edge (wall material 1c) of the outlet 1a of the flat showcase 1. Then, the extension screw 9 is screwed into the screw groove 8 e of the mounting frame 8, and the mounting frame 8 is fixed to the edge of the outlet 1 a of the flat showcase 1.

Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 3, the lower portion of the side plate 5 is inserted into the side portion 8c of the mounting frame 8 by sliding from the rear side, and the screw hole 5f of the side plate 5 and the screw hole of the mounting frame 8 are inserted. The holes 8d are aligned with each other, the screws 7 are inserted, and the nuts 11 are tightened. As a result, the side plate 5 is attached to the mounting frame 8.
Is fixed upright.

Subsequently, the front plate 3 is slid down along the side of the side plate 5 erected and fixed to the mounting frame 8 so that the lower part of the front plate 3 is connected to the front portion 8a of the mounting frame 8. Put in.

Subsequently, the shelf 10 is suspended between the side plates 5 erected and fixed to the mounting frame 8, and the screw holes 10
e is aligned with the screw hole 5d of the side plate 5, the screw 7 is inserted and tightened with the nut 11. As a result, the shelf board 10 is
To be fixed.

Subsequently, the top plate 2 is put on the front plate 3 and the side plate 5, and the upper portions of the front plate 3 and the side plate 5 are inserted into the insertion frame 6.
Into the front part 6a and the side part 6c.

Subsequently, the rear plate 4 is inserted into the rear portion 8b of the mounting frame 8 and the rear portion 6b of the insertion frame 6 by slightly lifting the top plate 2.

Thereafter, the screw hole 5e of the side plate 5 and the screw hole 6d of the insertion frame 6 are aligned, and tightened with the nut 11. As a result, the top plate 2, the front plate 3, the rear plate 4, and the side plate 5 are assembled in a box shape having an open bottom surface, and a display space S is formed therein. The formed display space S is stabilized by the mounting frame 8 being fixed to the flat showcase 1.

According to this embodiment, a shield type showcase is additionally provided on the upper part of the flat type showcase 1. Therefore, the confectionery displayed on the shelf board 10 or the like in the display space S can be viewed from the side, and the display decorativeness is enhanced. In order to further enhance the display decorativeness, as shown in FIG. 8, a light 12 is provided on the front side of the top plate 2 with a screw 7 to illuminate a diagonally lower part. As the light 12, a fluorescent lamp having a low calorific value is effective.

Further, since the display space S is formed into a box shape by the top plate 2, the front plate 3, the rear plate 4, and the side plates 5, a sufficient sanitary environment is ensured. In addition, since the side plate 5 is a sliding door that opens and closes the display space S, inconvenience does not occur when confectionery or general refrigerated foods enter and exit the display space S.

Further, since the cool air of the flat showcase 1 flows into the display space S from the open bottom surface,
The cooling preservation function in the display space S is ensured. In order to further enhance the cooling preservation function, as shown in FIG.
A fan 13 is installed near the cool air outlet of the air flow passage 1e of the flat showcase 1 so that the cool air of the flat showcase 1 is forcibly supplied into the display space S.
As the fan 13, a sirocco fan which is small but has a large air flow is effective.

Further, according to this embodiment, since each part can be disassembled and each part is substantially plate-shaped, it can be stored compactly when unnecessary.

As described above, in addition to the illustrated embodiment, the front plate 3
Can be configured as a sliding door.

[0041]

As described above, the showcase forming kit according to the present invention displays confectionery or general refrigerated food in a display space formed on a flat-type showcase, thereby obtaining confectionery or general refrigerated food. Since it becomes possible to visually check the refrigerated food from the side, there is an effect that the display decorativeness is enhanced.

Further, since the display space is formed into a box shape by the top plate, the front plate, the rear plate, and the side plates, and the sealing property is enhanced, a sufficient sanitary environment is ensured.

Further, since each part is disassembled and has a substantially plate shape, there is an effect that it can be stored compactly when it is unnecessary.

Further, as the second aspect, the formed display space is supported by the mounting frame mounted on the flat type showcase, so that the formation of the display space is stabilized.

Furthermore, the third aspect of the present invention is that the sliding door forms an outlet for the displayed confectionery or chilled food, which may cause inconvenience in putting the confectionery or refrigerated food into and out of the display space. There is no effect.

Further, in the fourth aspect, the cool air of the flat showcase is forcibly supplied to the inside of the display space by the fan, so that the cooling and preserving function of the display space is enhanced.

Further, since the confectionery or general refrigerated food displayed in the display space is illuminated by the light, the display decoration can be enhanced.
