TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As an example, a product display hook has a mounting portion at a base end side of an arm portion, and is mounted on a frame to hang a product on the arm portion. There are things you can do.

[0003] Some of the hooks having the above structure have an arm portion that can be attached to and detached from a mounting portion. This is for replenishing commodities from the base end side of the detached arm portion. By doing so, the products displayed before replenishment can be brought to the distal end side of the arm portion, and the newly replenished products can be hung on the base end side of the same arm portion, whereby the products can be displayed from before replenishment. Products that have been sold are now in the foreground and can be sold first.

For example, like a hook 100 shown in FIG.
The arm part 110 is placed in the storage groove 121 on the upper surface of the mounting part 120, and a locking hole 122 provided in the rear part of the storage groove 121.
In addition, there is a type in which the concave portion 111 on the base end side of the arm portion is locked, and a certain effect is obtained by easy attachment and detachment of the arm portion 110.

However, when the tip of the arm is lifted when the arm is attached or detached, depending on the size and display condition of the products suspended on the upper hook, the display is disturbed by pushing up the products from below. However, the operation itself may be difficult.

In this regard, a hook 20 as shown in FIGS.
In the case of 0 and 300, the arm portions 210 and 310 can be pulled out to the front side while being horizontal, and thus there is no problem as described above. The hook 200 shown in FIG. 8 has, for example, a proximal end 210A that is split into two forks 211, and a thicker proximal end 212 that prevents the hook 200 from coming off. Just this hook 2
Reference numeral 00 denotes a structure that allows the rotation of the arm 210 (rotation about the longitudinal axis of the arm). Therefore, the tip spill stopper 212 which is bent upward so as to prevent the product from falling off the tip may gradually turn sideways / downward, etc., when the customer takes out or puts in the product when defining the product. A hook 300 as shown in FIG.
In this case, the screw 311 prevents the screw 311 from coming off, and can prevent the rotation. However, it is inconvenient to operate the screw 311 every time it is attached or detached.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is a hook which can be detachably mounted on an arm portion. The hook portion does not rotate when used, and can be easily detached while being securely prevented from coming off. It is an object of the present invention to provide a product display hook which can be detached in a direction.

[0008]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention has a basic configuration in which the base portion 10A of the arm portion 10 has a mounting portion 20 at the base end side and is mounted on the frame F.
A locking groove 1 is formed in a part of the peripheral surface on the base end 10A of the arm portion 10.
1 was recessed. The number of locking grooves 11 need not be one. In addition, the upper surface side of the mounting part forms a head, and this head
It may sandwich the insertion hole and the insertion hole for inserting the arm section
The two vertically arranged holes penetrate from the top side, and
And arranged so as to be inserted into the vertical hole and locked in the locking groove.
Included U-shaped spring, and this U-shaped spring
Energized to pinch the arm when inserted
It is, and is the arm portion inserted into the insertion hole is inserted to stop inserting the base end side in said head. Insertion hole 2
2 is provided with a U-shaped spring 25, which urges the arm portion inserted in the insertion hole so as to sandwich the arm portion.

When the arm 10 is inserted,
By inserting the U-shaped spring into the locking groove 11 at an angular position where the U-shaped spring is locked, the arm portion 10 is inserted into the mounting portion. When the U-shaped spring 25 is inserted in this manner, the U-shaped spring 25 does not easily rotate when the product is put in and out. When the arm 10 is removed, the insertion hole 22 is used as a bearing.
Is rotated, the locking groove 11 is displaced from the U-shaped spring 25 to release the locking, and the locking groove 11 can be removed from the mounting portion 20. In other words, "a recessed groove is provided in a part of the peripheral surface" according to claim 1 means that the recessed portion of the recessed groove 11 and the recessed groove are formed in the cross-sectional profile on the base end side of the arm portion. Therefore, the peripheral surface that comes into contact with the U-shaped spring due to the rotation of the arm portion can be replaced with the “locking groove 11” and the “portion without the locking groove”. The rotation may be performed by, for example, replacing the "spill-stop" of the product formed by bending the tip of the arm portion with the rotation lever.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, an embodiment of a hook for displaying goods according to the present invention will be described.

The hook 1 is, as shown in FIGS.
The arm portion 10 for hanging a product is formed of a steel round bar, and the mounting portion 20 provided on the base end 10A of the arm portion 10 is mounted on the frame F, whereby the arm portion 1 is mounted.
The product can be hung on 0. Also,
The mounting portion 20 includes a support rod 3 for supporting a display plate 32 for a price tag.
0 is attached.

The mounting portion 20 is made of a synthetic resin material and has a U-shaped cross section in a shape as shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, so that it can be mounted on a frame F of a square pipe that is horizontally laid. It is. The frame F on which the hook 1 is mounted may be of any type, and is not limited to a horizontally mounted square pipe, but may be a vertically-standing vertical frame, a mesh-like frame, or directly on a wall. The wall may be a crafted wall on which a hook can be worn. The mounting portion 20 has an upper surface formed as a vertically thick head 21, and an insertion hole 22 penetrating from the front to the back (that is, front and rear) of the head 21 is formed to have a large diameter of the arm 10. Also, the support rod 30
1 and 4, a stand 23 for inserting and attaching the support rod 30 is formed integrally with the rear surface of the support rod 30 from above. It is open upward to insert. 1 and 5 are attached to the head 21.
As shown in FIG. 2, two vertical holes 26 provided so that a U-shaped spring 25 can be inserted in an inverted U-shape from the upper surface side are penetrated so as to sandwich the insertion hole 22.

The U-shaped spring 25 is formed such that the inner width W (FIG. 5) of the U-shape is slightly narrower than the thickness D (FIG. 6C) of the base end side 10A of the arm portion. When the end 10A is inserted, the U-shaped spring 25 can be expanded. Therefore, the two vertical holes 26 into which the U-shaped springs 25 are inserted are formed so as to be flat in the direction in which the U-shaped springs 25 extend (see FIG. 4).
There is a spread allowance. Further, the two vertical holes 26 intersect with both sides of the insertion hole 22 at right angles. On the other hand, the front-rear width of the vertical hole 26 is only the thickness R of the pin (FIG. 3), and is not moved back and forth by the attaching / detaching operation of the arm portion 10 (insertion and removal).

In short, when the U-shaped spring 25 is inserted into the vertical hole 26, the inside of the U-shaped spring 25 narrows both sides of the insertion hole 22 so as to protrude into the insertion hole.
In other words, the U-shaped spring 25 allows the arm 10
Is formed into a bottleneck shape at an intermediate portion of the hole 22.

The arm portion 10 is formed in a round bar shape. As shown in FIG. 6, the base end 10A is provided with a longitudinal groove-shaped locking groove 11 on both sides so that a U- shaped when inserted into the insertion hole 22 is formed. The spring 25 is interposed and locked. In addition, the proximal side 10
A is formed in a tapered shape so that the U-shaped spring 25 can be easily expanded when inserted.

The arm portion 10 is bent downward by about 15 degrees at the base end 10A, and the tip end 10B is lowered downward, so that the product can easily move toward the tip end 10B. In addition, the tip side 10B is bent upward to form a product spill-stop 12.

The support bar 30 for the display panel is bent at 90 ° from the upright portion 31 at the rear end thereof, is directed horizontally, and is further bent downward by about 10 °, and as a result, is formed so as to trace the shape of the arm portion. ing. An attachment plate 33 for attaching a plastic display plate 32 is welded to a tip of the support rod 30 which is slightly shorter than the arm portion. The upright portion 31 of the support rod 30 has a square portion corresponding to the square tube of the bottomed hole 24 into which the insertion portion 31 'is inserted. It is facing.

The method of using the hook for displaying products is as follows.

The arm section 10 has a base end 10A,
0 and inserted into the insertion hole 22. At this time, the locking groove 11 of the arm portion 10 is inserted into the U-shaped spring 2 of the insertion hole 22.
5 is inserted in the rotation direction corresponding to 5, and the U-shaped spring 25 is attached to the locking groove 11 by being locked.
The support bar 30 has the display plate 32 attached to the tip thereof, and is inserted into the bottomed hole 24 of the mounting portion 20.

The hook 1 in this state is mounted on a desired frame F, and the product is suspended and displayed. During display, since the U-shaped spring 25 is locked in the locking groove 11, even if a customer inserts or removes a product and external rotation force is applied to the spill stopper 12 at the tip, the degree is not so large. The arm 10 does not rotate. Also, if the insertion portion 31 ′ of the support bar 30 is a round bar shape, the support bar 30 rotates when the tip of the support bar 30 is pushed from the side, and the display plate comes off from the front of the display.
At that point, a square pillar insertion part 31 ′ is inserted into the bottomed hole 24 of the square cylinder.
, It is possible to maintain a frontal orientation without rotating.

When the product is replenished, the arm 10 is removed, but with the hook 1 still attached to the frame F, the insertion hole 22 is used as a bearing, and the arm 10 is moved about 90 degrees. ° to rotate. As a result, the U-shaped spring 25, which has been locked in the locking groove 11 on the base end 10A, is displaced from the locking groove 11 to be unlocked, and can be removed from the mounting portion 20. Rotation may be performed by, for example, using the spill stopper 12 at the tip of the arm portion as a rotation lever. When the locking of the U-shaped spring 25 is released, the arm portion 10 is pulled out from the insertion hole 22 and removed, and a new product is suspended and replenished from its base end 10A. After the replenishment, the arm portion 10 is inserted into the insertion hole 22 of the mounting portion remaining on the frame side, and the same U-shaped spring 25 as the first is locked in the locking groove 11.

The arm portion is not limited to a rod shape but may be a plate shape. Even if the arm portion does not have such a long shape, a product can be suspended and displayed, and the base end side is inserted into the above-described insertion hole. Any material can be used as long as it can be inserted.

The mounting portion may be of any type.
The U-shape is not limited to the one that is hung from above the frame, but is within the scope of the invention of the present application as long as the hook can be attached to the frame at the base end of the arm and interposed between the arm and the frame. Any type may be used.

[0024]

As described above, according to the present invention, the arm portion can be easily attached and detached by simply inserting it into the insertion hole, and the hook can be securely removed. In addition, the frame does not rotate when the customer performs an operation of putting in and out of the product. On the other hand, when replenishing the product, the tip of the arm portion can be easily turned by operating the spill stop or the like, and thus can be easily removed.
