Regarding display shelves.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In recent years, large-scale retail stores that are comprehensively equipped with products related to clothing, food, and living, and are aimed at low prices and mass sales, in addition to typical supermarkets, hypermarkets, discount stores, supercenters, category killer , Factory outlets, wholesale clubs, convenience stores, one-price shops, outlet malls, drug stores, home centers, video shops, and so on.
[0003]
Common to these retailers is self-service where the customer picks and selects the goods and takes them to the checkout counter. Therefore, the display method of products in these stores adopts the latest modern marketing methods including consumer behavior, and the products are easy to see for customers, easy to pick up, have good associations and want to purchase The merchandise display, which is devised to make it look like it, makes it possible to determine the customer's willingness to purchase as quickly as possible and to exert a sales promotion function.
[0004]
As a product display method having such a function, conventionally, a product display shelf (hereinafter simply referred to as product display) in which left and right support columns are connected by a pair of upper and lower connecting rods and a number of shelf boards are supported via shelf receiving brackets. Shelf).
[0005]
By the way, in these stores, in consideration of the width of the passage and the arrangement method of the display devices and fixtures, the distribution of the space in each section and the portion other than the section is designed in detail.
In the typical arrangement method, the passages are designed to cross each other in a linearly guided manner for the purpose of planning an optimal standardization of display devices and fixtures in a grid pattern.
[0006]
Therefore, in order to effectively use a store floor with a limited area, product display shelves are often installed along the passage or back to back. In this case, the opposite product display shelf can be seen from one of the product display shelves installed on the aisle side or back to back, and the product that the customer is trying to purchase may be known to others.
[0007]
According to a marketing survey, it is said that the major factors that determine the purchase or use of products by consumers are the external stimulus “the eyes of others” and the “intention of the person” that is an internal stimulus. .
[0008]
When the external stimulus “the other person's eye” has a positive influence on the internal stimulus “the person's feelings”, the willingness to purchase is further stimulated, while the external stimulus “the other person's eye”. ”Adversely affects the“ intention of the person ”, which is an internal stimulus, lowers the willingness to purchase the product and results in abandoning the purchase.
[0009]
By the way, the products displayed on the product shelves include not only various daily goods related to clothing, food and living, but also books, drawings, videos, underwear, hygiene / pharmaceuticals, etc. for adult men. Over. When purchasing these latter products, it is important to consider the “others' eyes” as much as possible. It is person psychology.
[0010]
However, according to the grid pattern display method, when product display shelves are installed along the aisle or back to back, it is possible to see the opposite product display shelves from one product display shelf installed on the aisle side or back to back. , without being aware of the customer is the "eye of others", is a disadvantage that vetted selection to Rukoto to suits the product "I think purse of the person" can be difficulty Ru kuna occur.
[0011]
In order to eliminate this inconvenience, conventionally, a method has been proposed in which a backboard is attached to the back of a merchandise display shelf to block the eyes of others.
[0012]
An example of the prior art will be described with reference to FIG. In the conventional merchandise display shelf (01), the lower portions of the pair of left and right columns (02) and (02) are connected in advance with a lower connecting rod (03). On the upper surface of the lower portion connecting rod (03), and a groove backboard (08) is inserted upward, the lower sash (04), are fixed with tapping screws.
[0013]
Next, with the groove into which the backboard (08) is inserted facing inward, the left and right side sashes (011) (011) are fixed to the facing surfaces of the left and right support columns (02) and (02) with tapping screws, respectively. At this time, the lower ends of the left and right side sashes (02) and (02) are fitted into the grooves of the lower sash (04). Next, the backboard (08) is inserted from above using the grooves of the left and right side sashes (011) and (011) as guides. Finally, with the groove into which the backboard (08) is inserted facing downward, connect the upper connecting rod (07) with the upper sash (06) fixed in advance to the left and right posts (02) (02) Thus, the assembly of the product display shelf (01) is completed.
[0014]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
By the way, from the standpoint of store management and cost, a simple mobile display shelf that can be easily partitioned and displays the product layout, etc., is the type of display product, the product layout, In addition, the backboard can be easily attached to or removed from the product display shelf according to the color harmony of the surroundings, etc., or exchanged for changing the color or tone of wood, metal, resin, mirrors, etc. It is necessary to be able to do so and not limit the range of use of the merchandise display shelf.
[0015]
However, in the case of the above-described prior art, the product display shelf is used in the state where the backboard is assembled in advance to the product display shelf without assuming that the backboard is attached or detached at the installation site. Are limited to products that are conscious of the “others' eyes” described above, and the range of uses is narrowed. Of course, this type of merchandise display shelf may be used for normal daily miscellaneous goods display, but in that case, an originally unnecessary cost is required.
[0016]
Therefore, in the conventional display shelf described above, since the backboard is assembled in a state where the connection of the upper connection rod is not completed, the connection between the left and right support columns becomes unstable, and the left and right columns are assembled before the backboard is assembled. If the column is tilted to the side, there is a risk of damaging the connecting part of the lower connecting rod, and when inserting the backboard, the lower end of the backboard must be lifted up to the upper ends of the left and right columns and the side sash In order to drop the backboard from above along the groove, the backboard must be upright, so the installation work of the backboard requires a place where there is no obstacle to the upper side, and it is safe to work Has a problem that requires an assistant.
[0017]
Another problem to be solved by the present invention is that the left and right support columns are connected by a pair of upper and lower connecting rods, and the product display shelf is provided on the back of the product display shelf provided with a number of shelf boards via shelf receiving brackets. Backboards with a structure that can handle different width dimensions can be removably installed in the store as needed, thereby making the product display shelves more common and expanding their applications.
