Description

  The present invention relates to a product sample display device for vending machines.

  A product sample display space is provided in front of the outer door of the vending machine, and a product sample having translucency is juxtaposed in the display space. The product sample is illuminated from behind by an illumination device installed on the back side.

  In addition, as a lighting device for such a product sample, a combination of a fluorescent lamp, an LED lamp, and a light guide plate (Patent Document 1) is used as a light source for conventional illumination.

  However, the conventional product sample illumination device illuminates the product sample from behind, but there is a space between the illumination device and the product sample, and the two are separated, so the illumination by the illumination device is reduced. As a result, there is a problem that sufficient brightness cannot be obtained with respect to the brightness of the product sample.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and a product sample is directly held on the front surface of an illumination unit constituted by an LED lamp and a light guide plate, and illumination by the illumination unit is applied to the product sample from the latest. As a result, it is possible to make it much brighter than before, and in addition to using magnets and other suitable fastening and fixing means, it is easy on the walls in the exhibition space of existing vending machines. An object of the present invention is to provide a product sample display device for a vending machine which can be attached to and detached from a vending machine.

  Thus, the gist of the present invention is that the LED lamp and the light guide plate that emits light from the LED lamp from the side surface and emits light to the front surface are used as an illumination unit. A product sample display apparatus for a vending machine, which is provided with a product sample holding means having a light property and having a holding protrusion formed on a peripheral portion.

  Further, in the above configuration, as the product sample holding means, a number of frame portions corresponding to the product sample to be held are provided on the front surface of the light guide plate, and the holding protrusion formed on the peripheral portion of the product sample is provided on the frame portion. It is good also as a holding means of the product sample comprised by providing the notch part which inserts and hold | maintains a piece.

  Further, in the above configuration, as the illumination unit, a light guide plate having a large number of recesses for diffusing light on the back surface is used as the light guide plate, and a light reflecting sheet is attached to the back surface of the light guide plate and the front surface of the light guide plate It is good also as an illuminating part formed by attaching a light diffusion sheet.

  The present invention is configured as described above, and the product sample is directly held on the front surface of the illumination unit constituted by the LED lamp and the light guide plate. The sample will be irradiated and can be made much brighter than before.

  In addition, it can be easily attached to and detached from the wall surface in the exhibition space for the product sample in an existing vending machine using a magnet or other appropriate fastening and fixing means.

  In addition, as a means for holding the product sample, a number of frame portions corresponding to the product sample to be held are provided on the front surface of the light guide plate, and holding protrusions formed on the peripheral portion of the product sample are inserted into the frame portion. In the case of a product sample holding means configured by providing a notch for holding, it can be used for all existing product samples and can be easily attached and detached.

  Further, as the illumination unit, a light guide plate having a plurality of concave portions for diffusing light on the back surface is used as the light guide plate, and a light reflection sheet is attached to the back surface of the light guide plate and the light diffusion sheet is provided on the front surface of the light guide plate. In the case of the illuminating unit that is attached, surface emission by the illuminating unit can be further brightened.

  The best mode for carrying out a vending machine product sample display apparatus according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

  1 is a partially omitted front view of a vending machine product sample display device according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a partially enlarged view thereof, and FIG. 3 is an enlarged cross-sectional view taken along line AA in FIG. 4 is an exploded sectional view, FIG. 5 is a partially enlarged perspective view, and FIG. 6 is a perspective view of a product sample.

  In the figure, 1 is a product sample display device for vending machines. Reference numeral 2 denotes an illumination unit in the vending machine product sample display device 1. In addition, the illumination unit 2 emits light from the plurality of LED lamps 3, 3, 3,... And the LED lamps 3, 3, 3,... From the side surface (lower side surface in the present embodiment). The light guide plate 4 is incident and emits light to the front surface.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the illuminating unit 2 uses a light guide plate having a plurality of recesses 4a, 4a, 4a,... For diffusing light on the back surface as the light guide plate 4, and the light guide plate. The light reflection sheet 5 is attached to the back surface of the light guide 4 and the light diffusion sheet 6 is attached to the front surface of the light guide plate 4. The LED lamps 3, 3, 3,... Are provided on the LED board 3A at a predetermined interval, and the LED board 3A is fixed to the lower portion of the light guide plate 4 with a mounting frame 3B.

  Reference numeral 7 denotes a product sample holding means. Further, in the present embodiment, the product sample holding means 7 is provided with a number of frame portions 7A, 7A, 7A,... Corresponding to the product samples to be held on the front surface of the light guide plate 4. The frame portions 7A, 7A, 7A... Are provided with notches 8 for holding and holding holding protrusions formed on the peripheral edge of the product sample. The frame portion 7A may be provided by forming a recess in the front surface of the light guide plate 4, or a frame body separate from the light guide plate 4 is integrally bonded to the front surface of the light guide plate 4. It may be provided. According to the product sample holding means 7, it is possible to deal with all existing product samples and to easily attach and detach them.

  9 is a product sample which has translucency and is formed with holding protrusions 9A and 9B on the peripheral edge. The holding projection piece 9A is formed at a position slightly above the center of both side edge portions, and the holding projection piece 9B is formed at the lower portion of both side edge portions.

  Thus, when holding the product sample 9 in the present embodiment, the body of the product sample 9 is slightly crushed from both sides into the frame portion 7A, and is first shifted downward to hold the holding protrusion 9B. Insert into the notch 8 on the lower side of the frame 7A, then loosen the hand, and insert the holding projection 9A into the notch 8 in the middle of the frame 7A in the height direction by the restoring elastic force of the product sample 9. Is. Further, when removing the product sample 9, the procedure is reversed. Thereby, the product sample 9 is directly held on the front surface of the light guide plate 4 in the illumination unit 2. Therefore, the product sample 9 is irradiated with the illumination by the illumination unit 2 from the latest, so that it can be made much brighter than before.

  Although not shown, it can be easily attached to and detached from the wall surface in the display space of the product sample in an existing vending machine using a fixing means such as a magnet. In this case, for example, a magnet (not shown) is fixed to the back of the illuminating unit 2 and is adsorbed by a magnetic force to the wall surface in the exhibition space of the product sample in the vending machine, or a crank-shaped plate and screw are attached. It is used and screwed.

It is the front view which abbreviate | omitted and showed the goods sample display apparatus for vending machines which concerns on embodiment of this invention. FIG. It is an AA line expanded sectional view in FIG. FIG. It is a partial expansion perspective view. It is a perspective view of a product sample.
