  Embodiments of a showcase commodity display shelf support structure according to the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments.

  As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a product display shelf support structure 10 for a showcase according to the present invention is a product display shelf support structure provided inside a showcase, and is spaced from the left and right inside the showcase. The shelf brackets 14 are respectively installed on the shelf columns 12 that are erected at a distance from each other, and the shelf plates 16 that are spanned between the left and right shelf brackets 14 and are supported by the shelf brackets 14 on the left and right sides. The shelf board 16 can be comprised, for example with a glass shelf board. In addition, in FIG. 1, the right side shelf support | pillar 12 and the shelf bracket 14 are shown among right and left.

  The shelf bracket 14 extends in the front-rear direction, and has engagement hooks 18 formed at four positions on the rear end 14a on the upper, lower, left, and right sides, respectively. The shelf bracket 14 is a sheet metal product of a steel plate having a substantially inverted U-shaped cross section when viewed from the front, having two side surfaces 14b and an upper surface 14c connecting the upper edges of the side surfaces 14b. The side surface 14b has a narrow rear end 14d. The end 14a has a wide and substantially triangular shape. The engagement hooks 18 are hook-shaped protrusions protruding rearward from two upper and lower positions on the rear edge of the side surface 14b. The upper and right two rows of engagement hooks 18a and 18b and the lower left and right two rows of engagement hooks 18c. , 18d.

  The shelf column 12 is made of a channel steel plate erected on a back panel in the cabinet (not shown) according to the width of the product display shelf (for example, about 1 m). On the front side surface 12a of the shelf support column 12, there are provided a plurality of left and right vertical slit-like engagement holes 20 formed in a plurality of holes at equal intervals in the vertical direction. The two left and right engagement holes 20 are located at the same height.

  The four engagement hooks 18 of the shelf bracket 14 include two upper and lower two engagement holes 20a and 20b and two lower left and right engagement holes 20c among the two right and left engagement holes 20 of the shelf column 12. Each is inserted into a total of four engagement holes 20d and is latched. In the example of FIG. 1, the engagement hook 18a of the shelf bracket 14 is engaged with the engagement hole 20a, the engagement hook 18b is engaged with the engagement hole 20b, the engagement hook 18c is engaged with the engagement hole 20c, and the engagement hook 18d is engaged. The case where it inserts in the hole 20d is illustrated.

  A long horizontal frame 22 having a substantially T-shaped cross section spans between the front ends 14 d of the upper surface 14 c of the left and right shelf brackets 14. Fences 22a and 22b for fitting and supporting the shelf boards 16 are supported upright at the front side edge and the left and right ends along the longitudinal direction of the horizontal frame 22. The upper surface 14c is overlaid and fixed with a rivet (not shown).

  In the present embodiment, the rear horizontal frame that connects the rear ends 14a of the left and right shelf brackets 14 is not essential, but the upper surfaces of the left and right shelf brackets 14 are similar to the conventional structure described above. A rear side frame may be bridged between the rear ends 14a of 14c, and the rear ends 14a of the left and right shelf brackets 14 may be connected to each other.

  In the above configuration, when a product display shelf is installed on the shelf column 12, the product display shelf is held in both the assembled state in which the shelf plate 16 is mounted on the horizontal frame 22 or the shelf plate 16 is removed. The product display shelf is attached to the shelf column 12 by inserting the engagement hooks 18a, 18b, 18c, 18d of the rear end 14a of the shelf bracket 14 into the engagement holes 20a, 20b, 20c, 20d, respectively, from the front of the showcase.
