Description

  The present invention relates to a showcase product display shelf for displaying and selling products such as cans, bottles, and plastic bottles.

As the product display shelf of the headline showcase, a shelf board is provided in the showcase cabinet corresponding to the so-called “first-in, first-out” of the showcase and is supported in a forward inclined posture through a shelf holder. The thing of the structure provided with the partition wire so that the product displayed on the left and right would be divided and aligned according to the inclined surface of a shelf board, and the partition wire was well-known (for example, refer patent document 1).
Next, the overall structure of the showcase and the structure of the merchandise display shelf are shown in FIGS. First, in FIG. 3, reference numeral 1 denotes a front-open case outer box that becomes a heat-insulating housing, 2 an inner box, and 3 a cooler disposed in a cold air circulation path defined between the outer box 2 and the inner box 3. (Evaporator of refrigerator) 4 is a cooling air blower fan, and a product display shelf 5 arranged in the upper and lower stages is supported in a forward inclined posture via a shelf holder 6 in the case body. Products 7 such as cans, bottles, and plastic bottles are arranged and displayed on the display shelf 5 as described later.

Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the product display shelf 5 includes a tray-shaped shelf board 5a, a wire support frame 5b attached to the front edge of the shelf board 5a, and a wire fence 5c planted on the frame 5b. And a partition wire 5d straddling between the top surface of the frame 5b and the back wall of the shelf board 5a and arranged side by side on the left and right sides. I try to display it.
Here, the partition wire 5d is formed with a hook portion 5d-1 whose front end is bent into an L shape. On the other hand, wire support holes 5a-1 are formed at regular pitch intervals on the back wall of the shelf plate 5a, and the tops of the wire support frames 5b (channel material having a U-shaped cross section) according to the arrangement of the wire support holes 5a-1. A wire support hole 5b-1 is drilled in the surface.
In order to install the partition wire 5d on the shelf plate 5a, the rear end of the partition wire 5d is fitted and inserted into the wire support hole 5a-1 from the front, and the L-shaped hook portion 5d-1 at the front end is inserted from above. The frame 5b is dropped into a wire support hole 5b-1, and is locked and fixed at a designated position.

FIG. 5A shows a state in which the product 7 is displayed on the product display shelf 5 having the above-described configuration. When the customer takes out the product 7 arranged in the front row of the shelf, the product 7 arranged in the rear of the product 7 is displayed on the shelf board. The product is "first-in, first-out" by sliding on the inclined surface 5a and moving to the position of the front row.
Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 2005-328959 (FIGS. 3 and 4)

Incidentally, the above-described conventional product display shelf has the following problems in actual use. That is, in the state of the product display shown in FIG. 5, when the product 7 arranged in the front row is pulled up and taken out, the product 7 is caught on the partition wire 5d and the partition wire is hooked. The part 5d-1 may accidentally come out of the wire support hole 5b-1 of the frame 5b. Moreover, if this pulled out state is left unattended, the alignment guide function of the partition wires will not work, and the alignment of the products displayed on the shelf plate 5a may be disturbed, or depending on the situation, the partition wire 5d may be removed from the shelf plate 5a. May fall off.
The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and its object is to provide a product for a showcase in which the partition wire locking structure is improved so as to solve the above-described problems and prevent the partition wire from coming off and falling off the shelf board. It is to provide display shelves.

In order to achieve the above object, according to the present invention, there is a product display shelf of a showcase that is arranged in the upper and lower stages and installed in the cabinet of the case body, and the shelf plate that is supported in a forward tilted position via a shelf bracket. On the other hand, with a partition wire that is installed between the wire support frame attached along the front edge of the shelf and the back wall of the shelf and guides the displayed products along the inclined surface of the shelf. ,
A hook-shaped hook portion is bent at the front end of the partition wire, and the rear end of the partition wire is inserted into a wire support hole drilled in the back wall of the shelf board, and the hook portion at the front end is connected to the top surface of the frame. In this case, the partition wire is made of wire spring material, and the rear end of the wire is attached to the wire support hole drilled in the wire. Inserted into the wire support hole drilled in the back wall of the shelf board from the front and spanned between the frame, and inserted the tip hook into the wire support hole of the frame while bending the wire concavely in the longitudinal direction Then, it is assumed to be locked and fixed to the shelf board (claim 2).

According to the above configuration, even when the product is caught on the partition wire when the display product is taken out with the partition wire locked to the shelf plate, the hook-shaped hook portion formed at the front end of the partition wire is the wire support frame. There is no risk of slipping out of the hole, improving reliability.
Moreover, when the partition wire made of wire spring material is installed on the shelf board, the rear end of the wire is inserted into the wire support hole drilled in the back wall of the shelf board from the front, and spanned between the frame. Above, by pushing the middle part of the partition wire in the longitudinal direction and bending the wire in a concave shape, the hook-shaped hook part formed at the front end faces upward, so that the hook part was perforated on the top surface of the frame It can be easily fitted and locked into the wire support hole.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below based on the examples shown in FIGS. 1 (a) and 1 (b) and FIG. In the drawing of the embodiment, members corresponding to those in FIG. 4 and FIG.
That is, the shelf structure of the merchandise display shelf 5 is basically the same as that of the conventional structure, but the partition wire 5d installed between the front and rear end edges of the shelf board 5 is made of wire spring material (piano wire) as a material, and its front end. As shown in the enlarged view of FIG. 1B, a hook-shaped hook portion 5d-1 is formed by bending a wire into an acute V shape.
In order to lock and fix the partition wire 5d to the shelf board 5a, as an attachment procedure, first, a wire attachment hole 5a-1 (see FIG. 5) in which the rear end of the partition wire 5d is drilled from the front to the back wall of the shelf board 5a. 4), and the hook-shaped hook portion 5d-1 formed at the front end is placed on the top surface of the wire support frame 5b facing downward. In this state, when a finger is pressed from above onto the intermediate portion in the longitudinal direction of the wire and a force F is applied thereto to bend the wire into a concave shape as indicated by a solid line from FIG. The part 5d-1 comes to face upward. Thereby, the wire tip of the hook portion 5d-1 can be easily inserted from above into the wire support hole 5b-1 (see FIG. 4) drilled in the top surface of the frame 5b. Then, when the hand is released from the partition wire 5d after being inserted, the wire itself is elastically restored to return to a straight shape, and at the same time, the hook-shaped hook portion 5d-1 is turned sideways as shown in FIG. Locked to 5b.

  In this locked state, even when an upward external force is applied to the partition wire 5d, the hook-shaped hook portion 5d-1 does not come out of the hole of the frame 5b. Accordingly, when the display product 7 is taken out, even if the product is caught on the partition wire 5d, the hook portion 5d-1 of the partition wire 5d may be inadvertently detached from the frame 5b, or the partition wire 5d may fall off the shelf plate 5a. Loss and improve reliability.
