While the angle position adjusting portion is formed, the left and right side portions of the shelf corresponding to the angle position adjusting portion are selectively engaged with the angle position adjusting portion to adjust the inclination angle of the shelf. The configuration is such that a joint is provided.
With this configuration, the position where the posture should be changed can be changed only at one end of the bracket, and the mutual engagement position between the angle position adjustment unit and the engagement unit is changed at the one end position. The inclination attitude of the shelf can be changed, and the work can be performed much easier and faster than in a conventional display device.

[0007]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION The support in the present invention is constituted by a prism-shaped column, and a slit is formed in a rear end surface of the column. It is preferable to adopt a configuration in which it is provided at an intermediate portion along the exit direction. Thereby, since the front end side of the support can be formed as a flat surface without slits, the appearance of the support when viewed from the front can be made clear, and the support itself can be easily formed. it can.

[0008] The angular position adjusting portion is constituted by a plurality of cutouts which open one end along the extending direction of the bracket, and the open sides of these cutouts are formed narrower than the bottom side of the cutouts. Is preferred. According to this configuration, the engaging and disengaging direction of the engaging portion substantially coincides with the front-back direction of the shelf board. Therefore, since the engaging portion and the notch portion can be disengaged by moving the shelf back and forth, the display object can be easily removed even when the display object is not removed from the shelf when changing the inclination of the shelf. It is possible to do this.

It is preferable that the bracket is provided in an external shape having an L-shaped side end. Specifically, the bracket includes a main body surface provided with the claw portion and the notch portion, and a support surface connected to a lower edge of the main body surface and supporting a lower end side of the shelf board. The upper-side fixed area of the surface is configured to protrude above the upper surface of the shelf board to function as a fall-prevention area for the display object. By using such a bracket, it is possible to eliminate the necessity of providing separate drop-off preventing pieces at both ends of the shelf.
