Description

【０００１】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、コンビニエンスストアやスーパーマーケット等で商品陳列に用いられるショーケースに関するものである。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
従来、この種のショーケースとしては、ショーケース本体内に設けられた左右一対の棚柱と、各棚柱から前方に延びる左右一対の棚受けと、商品が陳列される棚板と、棚板の前部を固定し各棚受けに架設された前部レールと、棚板の後部を固定し各棚受けに架設された後部レールと、商品案内用の表示部材と、前部レールの前面に設けられ表示部材を係止する係止部と、商品の脱落を防止する商品ガードと、前部レールと係止部との間に形成され商品ガードを固定する固定部とを備え、前部レール及び後部レールに凹部または凸部を設けるとともに、各棚受け部に各レールの凹部または凸部と係合する凸部または凹部を設けたものが知られている。
【０００３】
このショーケースによれば、棚板に陳列する商品の変更等により棚板の配置を変更する場合は、棚板、後部レール、前部レール、各棚受けの順にショーケースから取り外し、各棚受けを各棚柱の所望の高さに取り付けた後、前部レール、後部レール、棚板の順にショーケースに取り付け、棚板の高さが所望の高さとなるようにしている。また、棚板に陳列する商品の変更に際して表示部材を変更する場合は、表示部材の上端及び下端を係止部より外し、新たに陳列する商品の表示部材を係止部の上端及び下端に係止させ、表示部材の交換を行っている。
【０００４】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、前記ショーケースにおいては、棚板の配置を変更する場合に、表示部材の係止部を有する前部レールの重量が嵩むため、前部レールの取り付け及び取り外しにおける作業者の負担が大きいという問題点があった。また、前部レール及び後部レールが各棚受け部の所定位置に固定されるので、各棚受け部を棚柱に組み付ける際に組付誤差により各棚受け部間の寸法が狂うと、作業者は各棚受け部間の寸法を各レールが固定可能な寸法に調整しなければならず、各棚受け部の設置作業が極めて面倒であるという問題点もある。さらに、表示部材を交換する場合に、新たな表示部材の上端及び下端を係止部に係止させるのは面倒であるという問題点もある。
【０００５】
本発明は前記問題点に鑑みてなされたものであり、その目的とするところは、棚板の配置変更及び表示部材の交換における作業者の負担を軽減したショーケースを提供することにある。
【０００６】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は前記目的を達成するために、請求項１では、ショーケース本体内に設けられた左右一対の棚柱と、各棚柱から前方に延びる左右一対の棚受けと、商品が陳列される棚板と、棚板の前部を固定し各棚受けに架設された前部レールと、商品案内用の表示部材と、商品の脱落を防止する商品ガードとを備えたショーケースにおいて、前記前部レールを上側の上レールと下側の下レールとから構成し、前記上レールは、棚板の前方に延びる上レール本体と、上レール本体の前端から下方に延びる背面固定部とを有し、前記下レールは、棚板の前方に延びる下レール本体と、下レール本体の前端から上方に延びる前面固定部とを有し、前記前部レールを、下レール本体の前端が上レール本体の前端よりも前方となるよう形成し、背面固定部と前面固定部との間に表示部材及び商品ガードを上方より挿入して固定する固定間隔を形成している。
【０００７】
これにより、上レールの背面固定部と下レールの前面固定部との間に表示部材及び商品ガードが挿入される。また、上レールと下レールとで前部レールの断面が大きく形成されるとともに、上レール本体、下レール本体、前面固定部及び背面固定部により囲まれた部分は空洞となる。
【０００８】
また、請求項２では、請求項１記載のショーケースにおいて、前記上レール本体を、前後方向に延び棚板を載置する棚板載置部と、棚板載置部の前端から上方に延び棚板の前面と当接する前面当接部と、前面当接部の上端から前方に延びる上レール前部とから構成し、前記上レール本体を、上レール前部の上面が棚板の上面と略一致するように形成している。これにより、請求項１の作用に加え、上レール前部の上面と棚板の上面との接続部分で段差が生じることはない。
【０００９】
また、請求項３では、請求項１または２記載のショーケースにおいて、前記商品ガードを、前面部と、背面部と、前面部及び背面部の下部を接続する接続部とから構成し、前面部と背面部との間に、表示部材を上方より挿入して固定する表示部材固定間隙を形成している。これにより、請求項１または２の作用に加え、商品ガードに表示部材の下部が着脱自在に固定される。
【００１０】
また、請求項４では、ショーケース本体内に設けられた左右一対の棚柱と、各棚柱から前方に延びる左右一対の棚受けと、商品が陳列される棚板と、棚板の後部を固定し各棚受けに架設された後部レールとを備えたショーケースにおいて、前記後部レールに、前後方向に延び棚板が載置される棚板載置部と、棚板載置部の後端から上方に延び棚板の背面と当接する背面当接部と、棚板載置部の左右両端から上方に延び棚板の左右側面の後側と当接する一対の側面当接部とを備え、前記各棚受け部に、その上端から左右の内側方向に延び、後部レールの棚板載置部を支持する支持部を設け、前記後部レールに、後部レール本体の前端から下方に延びる前端部を設け、前端部の左右両端に各棚受け部の支持部を受容する切欠を設けている。これにより、後部レールの背面当接部で棚板の背面側が固定され、後部レールの側面当接部で棚板の側面が固定される。また、各棚受け部の支持部に後部レール本体切欠が受容されて後部レールが固定される。
【００１１】

【００１２】
このショーケースは、前面を開口したショーケース本体１を備え、ショーケース本体１内には上下複数段の棚２が設けられている。ショーケース本体１内の背面側の左右には一対の棚柱３が設けられ、各棚２は、各棚柱３から前方に延びる一対の棚受け部４と、各棚受け部４の前部に架設された前部レール５と、各棚受け部４の後部に架設された後部レール６と、前部レール５及び後部レール６により固定される商品陳列用の棚板７と、棚板７に陳列された商品の脱落を防止する商品ガード８と、棚板７に陳列される商品の案内表示を行うプライスカード９とから構成される。
【００１３】
各棚柱３は、ショーケース本体１内の背面側の左右をそれぞれ上下に延び、棚受け部固定用の受け部固定孔３ａを上下方向に所定間隔をおいて有している。棚受け部４を固定する受け部固定孔３ａを変更することにより、各棚２は上下方向の任意の位置に設置される。
【００１４】
各棚受け部４は、各棚柱３から前方に延び、その上端に左右の内側方向に延びる支持部４ａが前後にわたって形成されている。この支持部４ａに前部レール５及び後部レール６が支持される。また、各棚受け部４は、支持部４ａ上面の後端から上方に延び後部レール６の背面側と当接する後部レール当接部４ｂと、背面側に設けられ後方に延びる受け部固定孔３ａに挿入される突片４ｃとを有している。
【００１５】
前部レール５は、レール構成部材である上レール１０及び下レール２０とから構成される。上レール１０は、前後方向に延びる上レール本体１１と、上レール本体の前端から下方に延びる背面固定部１２から構成される。また、上レール本体１１は、前後方向に延び棚板７が載置される棚板載置部１３と、棚板載置部１３の前端から上方に延び棚板７の前面と当接する前面当接部１４と、前面当接部１４の上端から前方に延びる上レール前部１５と、棚板載置部１３の左右両端から上方に延び棚板７の左右側面の前側と当接する側面当接部１６と、棚板載置部１３の後端から下方に延びる後端部１７と、後端部１７の左右両端に設けられ棚受け部４の支持部４ａを受容する切欠１８とを有している。上レール本体１１の棚板載置部１３の左右両端側は棚受け部４の支持部４ａの上面に支持され、後端部１７の切欠１８に支持部４ａが受容されている。前面当接部１４の上下寸法は、棚板７の厚さとほぼ同寸法に形成され、上レール前部１５の上面と棚板７の上面はほぼ一致するようになっている。
【００１６】
下レール２０は、前後方向に延びる下レール本体２１と、下レール本体２１の前端から上方に延びる前面固定部２２から構成される。また、下レール本体２１は、棚板載置部１３の下面に当接し背面側が棚板載置部１３よりも短く形成された下レール後部２３と、前面当接部１４の下方に位置し下レール後部２３の前端から下方に延びる下レール中部２４と、下レール中部２４の下端から前方に延びる下レール前部２５と、下レール後部２３の後端から下方に延びる後端部２６と、後端部２６の左右両端に設けられ棚受け部４の支持部４ａと係合する切欠２７とを有している。ここで、下レール後部２３の左右方向の寸法は、下レール各部２４〜２６より短く形成され、下レール後部２６の左右両端側で各棚受け部４の支持部４ａと接触しないようになっており、後端部２６の切欠２７に支持部４ａが受容されている。また、上レール１０の前面当接部１４、上レール前部１５、背面固定部１２と、下レールの下レール中部２４、下レール前部２５とで囲まれた空洞が前部レール５内に形成される。
【００１７】
前面固定部２２は背面固定部１２より前方に位置し、各固定部１２，２２と下レール前部２５とで、商品ガード８を挿入可能な固定間隙Ｓが形成される。本実施形態においては、前面固定部２２の上端と背面固定部１２の上端がほぼ同じ高さに形成するとともに、前面固定部２２の左右両端から後方に延びる部分を設けて商品ガード８の左右両端を覆うようにしたので、各棚２の前側の見栄えがよくなっている。
【００１８】
後部レール６は、前後方向に延び棚板が載置される棚板載置部３０と、棚板載置部３０の後端から上方に延び棚板７の背面と当接する背面当接部３１と、棚板載置部の左右両端から上方に延び棚板７の左右側面の後側と当接する側面当接部３２と、棚板載置部３０の前端より下方に延びる前端部３３と、前端部３３の左右両端に設けられ棚受け部４の支持部４ａを受容する切欠３４とを有している。
【００１９】
棚板７はガラスで形成され、前側を前部レール５の棚板載置部１３に、後側を後部レール６の棚板載置部３０に載置されている。また、前述したように、棚板７の前面は前部レール５の前面当接部１４に、背面は後部レール６の背面当接部３１に、左右側面の前側は前部レールの側面当接部１６に、左右側面の後側は後部レール６の側面当接部３２にそれぞれ当接し、これにより棚板７は固定される。
【００２０】
商品ガード８は透明プラスチックで形成され、前述したように、前部レール５の上レール１０及び下レール２０により形成される固定間隙Ｓに挿入される。商品ガード８は、前面部８ａと、前面部８ａから所定距離だけ後方に設けられ前面部８ａよりも上方に長く形成された背面部８ｂと、前面部８ａ及び背面部８ｂの下部を接続しＵ字状に形成された接続部８ｃとから構成され、商品ガード８の前面部８ａと背面部８ｂとの間にプライスカード挿入用の表示用固定間隙Ａが形成される。
【００２１】
プライスカード９は、その下部が商品ガード８の表示用固定間隙Ａに挿入され、上部の前面側には棚板７に陳列される商品の商品名及び値段等が記載され、商品の販売表示を行っている。
【００２２】
以上のように構成されたショーケースにおいては、棚２に陳列する商品の変更に際して棚２の設置位置を変更する場合、まず棚板７を上方に持ち上げて前部レール５及び後部レール６より外す。この後、後部レール６を前方に移動させ各棚受け部４より外し、前部レール５を各棚受け部４より外した後、各棚受け部４を各棚柱３より外して所望の高さの受け部固定孔３ａに各棚受け部４を固定し直す。次に、前部レール５を各棚受け部４に固定し、後部レール６の切欠３４に支持部４ａを位置させ、後部レール６を後方に移動させ固定する。このとき、各棚受け部４間の距離が狭くなった場合は後部レール６に力を加え、各棚受け部４間の距離を広げながら押し込むことができ、棚受け部４間の距離が広いなった場合はそのまま後部レール６を固定することができるので、各棚柱３間の寸法誤差及び各棚受け部４の組付誤差は許容される。次に、各レール５，６に棚板７を載置し、棚２の設置位置の変更が終了する。
【００２３】
このように、本実施形態におけるショーケースにおいては、前部レール５を上レール１０及び下レール２０で構成し、これら各レール１０，２０により形成される固定間隙Ｓに商品ガード８及びプライスカード９を挿入するようにしたので、従来のショーケースのようにプライスカード９の係止部及び係止部を前部レール５に固定するボルト等を設ける必要がなく、前部レール５を軽量にすることができ、棚２の配置変更における作業者の負担を軽減することができる。また、各棚２を構成する部品点数を少なくし、製造コストを低減することができる。
【００２４】
また、上レール１０と下レール１１とで前部レール５の側面断面を大きく形成するとともに、上レール１０と下レール１１とで囲まれた空洞を形成するようにしたので、前部レール５の強度を向上させるとともに、前部レール５の軽量化を図ることができ、実用に際して極めて有利である。
【００２５】
また、上レール前部１５の上面と棚板７の上面とがほぼ一致するようにしたので、各棚２の見栄えを向上させることができる。また、上レール前部１５と棚板７とで段差がないので、棚板７に陳列された商品の取り出しをスムースに行うことができる。
【００２６】
また、後部レール６の各棚受け部４への組み付けに際し、各棚柱３間の寸法誤差及び各棚受け部４の組付誤差が許容されるようにしたので、従来のショーケースのように各棚受け部４間の寸法が後部レール６が組み付け可能となるように調整する必要がなく、棚２の配置変更における作業者の負担を軽減することができる。
【００２７】
また、商品ガード８の表示用固定間隙Ａにプライスカード９を挿入するようにしたので、、従来のプライスカードの上端及び下端を係止するものと比べ、棚板７に陳列する商品を変更する際のプライスカード９の交換を容易に行うことができ、作業者の負担を軽減することができる。
【００２８】
尚、前記実施形態においては、後部レール６を設けたものを示したが、これを設けない構成としてもよい。この場合、棚２の設置位置を変更する際の後部レール６の取り外し及び取り付け作業を省略することができ、棚２の設置位置の変更作業をさらに容易に行うことができる。また、各棚２を構成する部品点数をさらに少なくし、製造コストをさらに低減することができる。
【００２９】
また、前記実施形態においては、商品ガード８の表示用固定間隙Ａにプライスカード９を挿入して固定するものを示したが、図５に示すように、商品ガード８を平板状に形成し、固定間隙Ｓ内の商品ガード８と前面固定部２２との間にプライスカード９を挿入して固定するようにしてもよい。
【００３０】
【発明の効果】
以上説明したように、請求項１記載のショーケースによれば、前部レールを複数のレール構成部材で構成し、各レール構成部材により形成される固定間隙に商品ガード及び表示部材を挿入するようにしたので、従来のショーケースのように表示部材の係止部及び係止部を前部レールに固定するボルト等を設ける必要がなく、前部レールを軽量にすることができ、棚板の配置変更における作業者の負担を軽減することができる。また、ショーケースを構成する部品点数を少なくし、製造コストを低減することができる。
【００３１】
また、上レールと下レールとで前部レールの断面を大きく形成するとともに、上レールと下レールとで囲まれた空洞を形成するようにしたので、前部レールの強度を向上させるとともに前部レールの軽量化を図ることができ、実用に際して極めて有利である。
【００３２】
また、請求項２記載のショーケースによれば、請求項１の効果に加え、上レール前部の上面と棚板の上面とがほぼ一致するようにしたので、各棚の見栄えを向上させることができる。また、上レール前部と棚板とで段差がないので、棚板に陳列された商品の取り出しをスムースに行うことができる。
【００３３】
また、請求項３記載のショーケースによれば、請求項１または２の効果に加え、商品ガードの表示部材固定間隙に表示部材を挿入するようにしたので、従来の表示部材の上端及び下端を係止するものと比べ、棚板に陳列する商品を変更する際の表示部材の交換を容易に行うことができ、作業者の負担を軽減することができる。
【００３４】
また、請求項４記載のショーケースによれば、後部レールの各棚受け部への組み付けに際し、各棚柱間の寸法誤差及び各棚受け部の組付誤差が許容されるようにしたので、従来のショーケースのように各棚受け部間の寸法が後部レールが組み付け可能となるように調整する必要がなく、棚板の配置変更における作業者の負担を軽減することができる。
