Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

Industrial Applicability The present invention divides the storage location of each classified document group and specifies the location of each document group in a bookcase that stores documents such as books and medical records by classifying them. Therefore, the present invention relates to a partition and display device appropriately mounted on the bookcase.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art For example, in a bookstore, books are classified and stored on a bookshelf and stored and displayed, and at a place where the author changes, a display plate displaying an author name corresponding to a portion protruding from the back of the displayed book is displayed. It is inserted between adjacent books to indicate where a particular author's book is located.

[0003] Further, in such a bookcase, a wire support usually hanging down from above is provided in some places in order to prevent a book stored on a shelf from falling down.

[0004]

However, since the display board is merely inserted between books, the display board may be inserted between the books and cannot be identified. Also, since it is thin and difficult to stand on its own, it is easy to tilt or fall when taking out an adjacent book. To make it self-sustaining, it must be relatively thick and heavy. For completeness, a number of locking portions must be provided on the shelf side so that the display plate can be locked at an arbitrary position. In addition, there are many disadvantages such as that a separate display board must be prepared for each title such as the author name.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and a bookshelf partition and display device according to the present invention has a wire support for supporting documents such as books and charts. It is mounted on the provided bookshelf using the wire support.

The partition and display device comprises two parallel support plates extending in the depth direction of the shelf with the wire support interposed therebetween, and protrudes along the edges of the support plates on the shelf front side. The display unit is formed of a display unit having a U-shaped cross section. At least the display unit is formed of a transparent member, and a sheet-like display piece can be inserted into the transparent member.

[0007] The partition and display device according to the present invention is supported by the wire support firmly engaged with the bookshelf by sandwiching the wire support between the two support plates, so that it can fall down even if it is thin. There is no. In addition, it can be easily inserted into and pulled out of the bookshelf.

Further, the storage area of each group of documents in the bookcase can be clearly separated by the support plate. This is particularly useful for bookcases that store documents that are relatively thin and frequently in and out, such as hospital charts.

Since the wire support is usually provided movably along the shelf, the installation position of the partitioning and display device can be freely changed.

[0010] The title is displayed on a sheet-like display piece,
By inserting this display piece inside the display section made of a transparent member, the title on the display piece can be clearly recognized through the transparent member. When changing the title, it is only necessary to replace only the display pieces, and it is not necessary to replace the entire partition and display device.

If the display portion is extended further below the lower end position of the support plate, the extended portion comes into contact with the end surface of the shelf bottom plate when the partition and display device is inserted into the shelf from the front face thereof. This prevents the partition and display device from being pushed further into the shelf. Therefore, the display unit always protrudes outward from the frontage surface of the shelf to sufficiently perform the display function.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below with reference to an embodiment shown in the drawings. FIG. 1 is a partial front view of a bookshelf 1 equipped with a partition and display device according to the present invention. The bookshelf 1 has shelves 3, 3... Vertically separated by shelves 2, 2,..., And a large number of books 4 are arranged and stored in each of the shelves 3 with their backs standing upright. I have.

These books 4 are arranged, for example, classified by author, and a partition / display device 5 according to the present invention is inserted and mounted at a place where the author changes. Reference numeral 6 denotes a wire support appropriately provided on each shelf 3 to support the book 4.

FIG. 2 is an enlarged front view showing the vicinity of one partition / display device 5 of FIG. 1, FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along the line III--III of FIG. 1, and FIG. It is a perspective view of. Hereinafter, the structures of the partition and display device 5 and the wire support 6 will be described with reference to these drawings.

The wire support 6 is formed into a frame shape by bending a metal wire, and as shown in FIG. 3, is suspended from the shelf 2 above the shelf 3 in the shelf depth direction (the direction of arrow a). It is arranged. It has a U-shape that opens upward, and plate-like locking portions 6a are integrally formed at both ends thereof. The wire support 6 is locked by the elasticity of the locking portion 6a to the shelf plate 2 by fitting the locking portion 6a into a groove 2a formed along the front and rear edges of the shelf plate 2, and The book 4 on both sides is supported by the U-shaped part of
This wire support 6 is slidable along the groove 2a,
The position in the shelf 3 can be changed freely.

Note that the wire support itself is conventionally known, and the above-described structure is merely an example.

The partitioning and displaying device 5 comprises two parallel supporting plates 7a and 7b extending in the depth direction of the shelf (the direction of arrow a) with the wire support 6 interposed therebetween, and these supporting plates 7a. , 7b along the edge 9 on the side of the shelf frontage 8 (FIG. 3).

The support plates 7a and 7b are made of a material having a suitable flexibility such as plastic, and the lower sides thereof are connected to each other by a bottom 7c to form a U-shaped vertical cross section as a whole.

The display section 10 is composed of, for example, a transparent member 11 made of plastic and having a U-shaped horizontal cross section.
Along the inside of the edge 9 of the a and 7b, they are fixed to the support plates 7a and 7b by means such as welding or bonding. The U-shaped opening of the transparent member 11 is closed by a closing piece 12, and the opening at the lower end is also closed by a closing piece 13. Thus, the inside of the transparent member 11 has a flat bag-like shape opened upward. Void 14 is formed.

A sheet-like display piece 15 is inserted into the space 14 from an upper opening. For example, a title 16 such as an author name is displayed on the display piece 15, and the title 16 can be clearly recognized from the outside through the transparent member 11 (FIG. 3).

The upper end of the transparent member 11 is substantially flush with the upper sides of the support plates 7a, 7b, while the lower end is formed of the support plate 7a, 7b.
A stopper surface 17 is formed on the lower end of the support plate 7a, 7b on the side of the support plate 7a, 7b, which is perpendicular to the bottom 7c.

The partition and display device 5 is connected to the desired shelf 3 of the bookcase 1.
In order to attach the wire support 6 to the desired position, the wire support 6 is first moved to that position, and the partitioning and display device 5 is moved from the shelf opening 8 to the shelf by sandwiching the wire support 6 from both sides by the support plates 7a and 7b. Push into 3, but the transparent member
The stopper surface 17 at the lower end of 11 is the lower end surface 2 of the shelf 2
b (FIG. 3), the partition and display device 5 is not pushed into the shelf 3 any further. Therefore, the display unit 10 always protrudes outward from the shelf frontage 8, so that the display unit 10 is not buried between the adjacent books 4 and does not perform its display function.

Further, in order to prevent the partitioning and display device 5 from slipping out of the shelf 3 unnecessarily, the support plates 7a, 7b
A protrusion 18 for a stopper is formed on the inner side surface of the. The projections 18 may be in the form of ridges as shown, or may be in the form of point-like projections. One of the support plates 7
It may be formed only.

The projection 18 is formed at a portion corresponding to the vertical portion 6b (FIG. 3) of the wire support 6 immediately after the partitioning and display device 5 is pressed.
b bend slightly to open each other and climb over the vertical part 6b and close again behind said part 6b. In this manner, the engagement between the closed projection 18 and the wire support 6 effectively prevents the partition and display device 5 from slipping out. However, if a relatively large pull-out force is applied to the partition and display device 5, the projection 18 is opened and gets over the wire support 6, so that there is no problem in replacing the partition and display device 5.

The partition / display device 5 configured as described above
Is supported by the wire support 6 by sandwiching the wire support 6 between the support plates 7a and 7b, so that the wire support 6 can be made thinner in accordance with the wire diameter of the wire support 6, and can fall from an upright state. However, a plurality of storage locations are clearly partitioned on the shelf 3 by the support plates 7a and 7b.

The support plates 7a and 7b are connected to each other at the bottom 7c.
, And the edges 9 are connected to each other via the closing piece 12, so that they have sufficient rigidity to support the book stored as a whole.

The mounting position of the partitioning and display device 5 can be freely changed by moving the wire support 6, and the display (title) can be changed only by changing the display piece 15, which is extremely simple.

In addition, as described above, the display portion 10 can be always held at the correct position by the stopper surface 17, and the partition / display device 5 can be prevented from coming off without permission by the projection 18.

The embodiment of the present invention applied to a bookshelf has been described above. However, the present invention is of course not limited to this, and can be applied to, for example, a bookcase for storing medical records as described above. The partition function and the support function of the partition / display device are particularly effective.

[0030]

According to the present invention, a bookcase partition / display device which is thin and hard to fall down can be obtained. This partitioning and display device can be easily attached and detached and its mounting position can be freely changed, so that a plurality of document storage locations can be clearly partitioned and displayed on the bookshelf. In addition, the display can be easily changed, and the display unit always protrudes outward from the frontage of the shelf, thereby exhibiting an excellent display function.
