Description

  The present invention relates to an article display holder for displaying products such as cosmetics or free samples enclosed in a container.

Generally, in stores such as convenience stores and drug stores, a wide variety of products are appropriately classified and displayed for each product on a multistage product shelf.
In particular, in products of fluids such as cosmetics such as fragrances, hair styling agents, and antiperspirants contained in bottles and spray containers, the containers are arranged from the front of the product shelf to the back, and 1 for each product. Arranged in rows or numbers.

  For such products, in order to realize the scent and feeling of use, it is common practice to put a display article such as a free sample at the forefront of the product line and try a shopper.

  However, if the display article is placed in the forefront of the product line, it has been very troublesome to take out the display article once to take out the product, take out the product, and return the display article again.

  Therefore, the display items are placed on the front of the product shelf by hanging them on a standing plate or frame (hereinafter collectively referred to as a fall prevention fence) to prevent the product placed on the front of each product shelf from falling. Holding the display article holding the display article holding tool (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2) that sticks out and holds the card article that holds the card that is positioned at the front end of the product shelf and displays the price tag etc. Tools (see, for example, Patent Documents 3 to 5) have been proposed and realized.

  However, the display article holder described in Patent Document 1 is an object that is simply used by hanging on the fall prevention fence. If the thickness or shape of the fall prevention fence is different, the display article holder will fall and hold or be held. Some exhibits may be dropped.

  On the other hand, since the display article holder described in Patent Document 2 can be bent by installing a foldable metal hanging plate in accordance with the fall-preventing fence, the rattling plate can be eliminated. However, it can be easily deformed due to external force such as contact of a person or an object and may cause rattling. Therefore, it is not suitable for holding a display article that is repeatedly held and taken out for a long time.

  On the other hand, as shown in Patent Documents 3 to 5, the display article holder to be locked to the card rail can stably hold the display article without causing rattling, but a dedicated rail is required for installation. Poor versatility and cost increases due to rail installation.

Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of a display article holder according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a first embodiment of a display article holder according to the present invention. Fig.2 (a) is a side view of the display article holder which shows 1st Embodiment based on this invention, FIG.2 (b) is a bottom view. FIG. 3 is a side cross-sectional view of the display article holder showing the first embodiment according to the present invention.
The directions a, b, c, and d shown in FIG. 1 are the front, rear, left, and right of the display article holder (1), respectively.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the display article holder (1) has a box-shaped holding part (2) whose upper surface is open and a hook part (3) located at the upper back of the holding part (2). is doing.
The display article holder (1) is used with the latching part (3) hooked to a fall prevention fence installed on the forefront of a product shelf or the like, and cosmetics etc. are enclosed in the holding part (2). Hold the bottom of a cylindrical container such as a spray can.

A display unit (21) for displaying a product name, a price, or an advertisement is provided on the front surface of the holding unit (2).
The display part (21) is made of a transparent plate member bonded to the front part of the bottom surface of the holding part (2), and the plate member is refracted with the front end of the bottom surface of the holding part (2) as the base end part. And the front-end | tip part is latched by the front upper part of a holding | maintenance part (2).

  Examples of the material of the holding part (2) include general-purpose plastics such as ABS resin and metal materials, but are not particularly limited.

The latching portion (3) includes a back plate (31) that constitutes the back surface of the holding portion (2), a counter plate (32) that faces and parallel to the back plate (31), and a back plate (31 ) And the counter plate (32) are connected to each other on the upper plate (33).
The lower end portion of the counter plate (32) is located at a height that is approximately half the height H of the back plate (31) or slightly above, and the upper end portion is located slightly above the upper end portion of the back plate (31). .
The upper plate (33) connects the upper end of the back plate (31) and the upper end of the counter plate (32). The upper plate (33) has a slightly horizontal portion in front of the upper end portion of the counter plate (32), and is inclined downward toward the upper end portion of the back plate (31).

A flexible member (4) is bonded to the bottom surface of the holding portion (2) by attachment means. The flexible member (4) is bent with the lower end of the back surface as a base end portion (41), and the tip end portion (42) is located between the back plate (31) and the counter plate (32). .
Since the flexible member (4) is a single plate and is bent at the base end (41), the flexible member (4) has a restoring force for restoring in the direction of extension by its own elasticity (the arrow direction in FIG. 3). is doing. Although it is going to extend by this restoring force, the front-end | tip part (42) contacts the opposing board (32) by having an opposing board (32), and extension is controlled.

FIG. 4 is a side sectional view showing a hooked state of the first embodiment of the display article holder according to the present invention.
As shown in FIG. 4, when the latching portion (3) is latched on the fall prevention fence (F), the flexible member (4) is further bent and the restoring force to be extended increases, so that the fall The prevention fence (F) can be pressed down sufficiently, and it is possible to prevent the exhibits from dropping due to rattling or forward tilt. Further, even when the display article holder (1) is easily caught when the display article is put in and out of the same width as the display article, rattling of the display article holder (1) can be prevented.

As the flexible member (4), a plate made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is used in the present embodiment, but it is not particularly limited as long as it is polycarbonate or other flexible material.
The thickness of the flexible member (4) is not particularly limited as long as it has sufficient strength and restoring force.

  The attachment method of a flexible member (4) is not specifically limited, For example, the adhesion | attachment by attachment means, such as a double-sided tape and an adhesive agent, is mentioned. Alternatively, it may be fused or welded. A flexible member (4) is formed by forming a pair of grooves extending in the front-rear direction in a U-shape on the left and right edges of the bottom surface of the holding portion (2) so that the openings face each other. It is also possible to use a method of locking.

As shown in FIG. 2, the flexible member (4) preferably has a notch (411) at the proximal end (41).
As described above, the flexible member (4) has one plate material bent at the base end portion (41), and has a restoring force for restoring in the direction of extension by its own elasticity. Since the restoring force is concentrated and applied to the base end portion (41), when the attachment method of the flexible member (4) is adhesion, the base end portion (41) is retained by holding the article for a long time or holding a heavy article. ) The flexible member (4) may be peeled off. However, by having the notch (411) in the base end part (41), the restoring force concentrated on the base end part (41) can be reduced, and the flexible member (4) is hardly peeled off. Can hold.

FIG. 5 is a development view showing the flexible member (4) of the display article holder according to the present invention.
As shown in FIG. 5 (a), the cuts (411) are located equally to the left and right with respect to the center in the width direction of the flexible member (4), and the length L of the cut (411) is the flexible member. It is preferable that the length is approximately half (about 40 to 60%) of the width W of (4).
If the notch (411) is too long, the flexible member (4) may not be able to prevent rattling due to loss of restoring force to be extended, or may be easily damaged due to loss of strength. This is because the restoring force concentrated on the end portion (41) cannot be reduced, and the display article cannot be held for a long period of time because the adhesive portion is easily peeled off.

  As shown in FIG. 5 (a), the notch (411) may have one length L at the center in the width direction of the flexible member (4), or FIG. 5 (b) or FIG. As shown in 5 (c), the total length may be L with a plurality of cuts (411) arranged evenly on the left and right with respect to the center in the width direction of the flexible member (4).

In addition, the attachment method to the bottom face of the holding | maintenance part (2) of a flexible member (4) is simple and preferable for adhesion | attachment with a double-sided tape. In this case, the flexible member (4) is more easily peeled off than other attachment methods due to the restoring force concentrated on the base end (41) by holding the article for a long time or holding a heavy article.
In order to suppress the concentration of the restoring force on the base end portion (41), it is preferable to use a PET plate material having the cut (411) in the flexible member (4). Further, from the viewpoint of the strength and restoring force of the plate material, it is preferable to use a plate material having a thickness of about 0.2 to 0.4 mm.
Thereby, the restoring force concentrated on the base end part (41) can be reduced more effectively, and even if a double-sided tape is used as the attachment means of the flexible member (4), the article can be held for a long time or heavy. The peeling of the flexible member (4) can also be effectively suppressed by holding the article.

The length A from the base end (41) to the tip (42) of the flexible member (4) is preferably substantially the same as the height H (see FIG. 3) of the back plate (31).
If the flexible member (4) is too short, a sufficient restoring force cannot be obtained and the fall prevention fence cannot be pressed against the opposing plate (32), so that rattling cannot be prevented. It is because it interferes with the upper plate (33) and the pressing of the fall prevention fence becomes insufficient.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, below the upper plate (33), an inclined portion (34) that slopes downward from the back plate (31) side toward the counter plate (32) side in the vicinity of the counter plate (32). ).
Since the latching portion (3) is gradually narrowed from the lower part toward the upper part, the display article holder (1) can be latched on the fall prevention fence F having various thicknesses without rattling as shown in FIG. It is.

  For example, when the fall prevention fence (F) has a thin plate shape as shown in FIG. 4 (a), the fall prevention fence (F) is guided forward from the opposing board (32) by the inclined portion (34). The distance from the plate (31) is shortened, and the pressing by the restoring force to be extended of the flexible member (4) is sufficient, and rattling can be suppressed. When the fall prevention fence (F) has a thickness close to the distance between the back plate (31) and the opposed plate (32) as shown in FIG. 4B, the fall prevention fence is in contact with the opposed plate (32). In this state, the flexible member (4) is pressed by the restoring force to be extended and can be hooked without rattling.

Although this embodiment has the side plate which hangs down on the right and left both ends of the upper plate (33) and forms the inclined portion (34) on the lower side of the side plate, the present invention is not limited to this. (34) may be formed by providing a plate member inclined below the upper plate (33).
In the present embodiment, the inclined portion (34) extends horizontally from the vicinity of the upper end portion of the back plate (31) to the rear, and from the substantially middle portion of the back plate (31) and the counter plate (32) to the counter plate (32). It is inclined downward.
The angle α formed by the inclined portion (34) and the counter plate (32) is about 30 °, but is not particularly limited.

  FIG. 6 is a plan view showing a display article holding state of the first embodiment of the display article holder according to the present invention. FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing an example of use of the first embodiment of the display article holder according to the present invention.

The display article holder (1) is preferably substantially the same as the width of the display article (D) to be held.
For example, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, when the display article (D) is a cylindrical container, it is preferable to provide thin portions (22) on the left and right side plates of the holding portion (2).
As shown in FIG. 6, when the outer diameter portion of the display article (D) enters the thin wall portion (22), the width of the display article holder (1) becomes substantially the same as the outer diameter (width) of the display article (D). Therefore, even when different products are displayed adjacent to each other, the display article (D) can be displayed for each row of products to be displayed.

Moreover, you may make it have a connection male part (231) and a connection female part (232) on the right side surface and left side surface of a holding | maintenance part (2), respectively, as shown in FIG.
When displaying different products with the same shape adjacent to each other, the display article holder (1) can be connected as shown in FIG. 7 by fitting the connecting male part (231) to the connecting female part (232). This is because the display article (D) can be displayed for each column of products.
