Description

The present invention relates to a transportable portable display device for displaying products of a pouch with a spout in a state of being hung on a hook in a store or the like.

A method of selling a product of a pouch with a spout containing a liquid such as a beverage by various display methods at a store or the like has been proposed.

For example, as a display method for suspending and displaying a pouch with a spout, a hook display tool having a hanging lower portion composed of a pair of first and second rod members separated in parallel is used to provide a cap on the upper part of the spout and a lower portion of the spout. Disclosed is a display method for displaying in a state of being suspended while being supported between the flanges of the above (see Patent Document 1).
This hook display tool is used in a state of being attached to a display shelf installed in the sales floor, and a pouch with a spout can be additionally replenished from the insertion part provided at the base end of the hanging lower part, and the hook display tool is also hung. Customers can take out products at any time from the entrance / exit section provided at the tip of the lower part.

Further, it is composed of a support (hook) having a long groove for hooking the spout portion of the pouch with a spout and a paper board with a hanging string, and this support is undulatingly locked to the locking hole of the paper board. Aside from this, there is disclosed an article display board that allows the support to be folded and packed without bulk by standing it upright so that the support does not protrude forward when not in use (patented). See Document 2).

Japanese Patent No. 4779060 Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2005-130967

At retail stores such as supermarkets, it is necessary to replenish when the remaining number of pouches with spouts on display is low or sold out.
If the display hooks and the like attached to the display shelves in the sales floor are replenished with spouted pouches one by one on the spot, customers in the sales floor cannot approach during the replenishment work. Therefore, to avoid disturbing customers, replenish the display hook with a pouch with a spout in advance in the backyard, and carry the pouch with a spout from the backyard to the sales floor with the pouch with a spout suspended from the display hook. Is desirable. However, it is not assumed that the hook display tool directly attached to the display shelf and used as disclosed in Patent Document 1 is removed from the display shelf and transported.

The article display board disclosed in Patent Document 2 is stored in the backyard with the support (hook) upright (folded) when not in use, and the support (hook) is erected when in use. Make it ready for use.
This item display board also usually has a support (hook) upright in the backyard, but to prevent the pouch with spout from falling during transportation, transport it to the sales floor and then hook the pouch with spout on the support. Will be used. However, in order to avoid replenishment work at the sales floor, the pouch with a spout was hooked on the upright support (hook) in the backyard and hung by taking advantage of the fact that the goods display board can be transported. It is possible to use it for transportation in the state.

However, in order to reliably transport the pouch with spout while hooked on the long groove of the support (hook) using this article display board, for example, the paper board should be horizontal with both hands so that the entrance and exit of the long groove do not tilt downward. It is inconvenient because you have to be careful not to drop the product while supporting it, and you cannot carry it with one hand.

In particular, when carrying a plurality of article display boards together, it is desirable to attach a hanging strap so that the hanging strap can be carried at the same time. However, since the paper board and the support (hook) itself are lightweight and the pouch with a spout filled with liquid is relatively heavy compared to these, it is assumed that the pouch with a spout is in the long groove of the support (hook). When the hanging strap of the paper board is lifted by hooking, the center of gravity is biased to the front on the support (hook) side, and the paper board tilts greatly forward. Therefore, the pouch with a spout will slip off the long groove.

In addition, it is described that a protrusion for preventing the pouch with a spout hooked on the long groove from coming off is provided at the tip of the long groove, but this is a pouch with a spout displayed in the long groove facing diagonally upward. Is a protrusion to prevent it from easily coming off due to vibration or the like. Since it is necessary to take out the product from the tip of the long groove, this protrusion is made to expand elastically and easily. It is difficult for this protrusion to stop the relatively heavy pouch with spout from slipping down due to inertia when the entrance and exit of the long groove is tilted downward. In particular, if the gap between the width of the spout portion of the pouch with a spout and the groove width of the long groove is large, the pouch will easily slip off.

In addition, if for some reason you need to change the display location of the product during display at the sales floor, or if you need to move the product to another store, clean up all the hanging pouches with spouts. After that, it is troublesome to hook the support (hook) again at the new display place.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a portable display device capable of carrying a pouch with a spout hooked on a hook in a backyard as it is with peace of mind.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a portable display device capable of reliably transporting a pouch with a spout that has already been hung from a hook and displayed without removing it from the hook.

The portable display device of the present invention made to solve the above problems is a portable display device including a back plate and a hook provided with a long groove for hooking a spout portion of a pouch with a spout. , A base and a pair of left and right arms extending parallel to each other from the front surface side of the base, the back surface side of the base is fixed to the back plate by fixing means, and the long groove is sandwiched between the left and right arms. Formed by the inner space,
In the vicinity of the tips of the left and right arms, a first outer protrusion protruding from the outer surface of the arm and a second outer protrusion behind the first outer protrusion are formed, and at the same time, behind the first outer protrusion near the tips of the left and right arms. An internal protrusion is provided on the inner surface of the arm on the side,
Further, a pair of window holes through which the tips of the left and right arms can be inserted are provided, and when the left and right arms are inserted into the window holes, they are locked between the first outer protrusion and the second outer protrusion. It has a front cover that is made.

In the portable transport device of the present invention, the spout portion of the pouch with a spout is hooked on the long groove of the hook fixed to the back plate. At this time, the elasticity of the left and right arms easily widens the space between the internal protrusions at the tip of the arm, and the pouch with a spout can be easily hooked. Subsequently, the tip of the arm is inserted into the window hole of the front cover, and the window hole of the front cover is locked between the first outer protrusion and the second outer protrusion. When this front cover is attached, it works as a fall prevention cover. That is, when the pouch with a spout is slid forward with the front cover attached, the spout portion tries to expand the inner protrusions at the tips of the left and right arms, but the front cover is the first outer protrusion and the second. Since it is locked between the outer protrusions and the front cover prevents the tip of the arm from expanding elastically, it is not possible to expand between the inner protrusions of the left and right arms, so the pouch with spout is the inner protrusion. Cannot slide forward beyond. Even if the arm is tilted downward, it cannot cross between the internal protrusions, so the pouch with spout will not fall accidentally. Therefore, it is possible to carry the pouch with a spout without worrying about the fall.

In the above invention, the pair of left and right arms have an L-shaped cross section in which the bottom wall and the side wall are orthogonal to each other, and the side walls are mutual so that the bottom wall is on the lower side of the arm and the side wall is on the outside of the arm. Arranged so as to be parallel, the first outer protrusion and the second outer protrusion are formed so as to project from the outer surface of each side wall to the outside of the side wall, and the first outer protrusion is from the tip side to the back side of each arm. An inclined surface may be formed so that the height protruding from the outer surface of the side wall to the outside of the side wall increases as the process progresses. As a result, the width on the tip side of the left and right first outer protrusions is smaller than the width on the back side of the left and right first outer protrusions, so that the window hole of the front cover can be easily inserted into the tip of the first outer protrusion. After the tip of the first outer protrusion is inserted, the first outer protrusion elastically bends inward just by pushing the front cover inward, and the front cover is pushed in until it exceeds the first outer protrusion. You will be able to. When the front cover exceeds the first outer protrusion, the inward bending of the first outer protrusion is eliminated, so that the window frame portion of the front cover engages with the step on the back side of the first outer protrusion. Movement is restricted when trying to return to the front (arm tip) side of the cover.

Further, the inclined surface of the first outer protrusion has a height at which the upper side of the arm, which is the end edge side of the side wall, projects from the outer surface of the side wall to the outside of the side wall, rather than the lower side of the arm, which is the bottom wall side of the side wall . It may be cut out diagonally on the cut surface so as to be low.
If you pinch the lower side of the front cover and rotate it upward (that is, when the pouch vibrates and hits the front cover, it will rotate upward as well), the front cover will not come off easily. It is possible to make it easier to remove the front cover when the upper side is pinched and the movement is rotated downward (movement that is unlikely to occur even if the pouch vibrates).

The perspective view which shows the structure and use state of the portable display apparatus which is one Embodiment of this invention. A side view of the portable display device of FIG. 1. FIG. 1 is a view of the portable display device of FIG. 1 as viewed from above. The perspective view of the hook part of FIG. The plan view of the hook part of FIG. The side view of the hook part of FIG. The front view of the hook part of FIG. Front view of the front cover of FIG. The figure which shows the movement of the pouch P with a spout in the state where the hook 20 is tilted forward.

Hereinafter, the portable display device of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a configuration and a usage state of a portable display device according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a view seen from the side, and FIG. 3 is a view seen from above.

This portable display device includes a back plate 10 and a hook 20. The back plate 10 is made of corrugated cardboard, a resin plate, a metal plate, or the like, and a hanging hole 12 for attaching the hanging strap 11 is formed on the upper portion. Further, a plurality of sets of square holes 13 and 14 for fixing the hook 20 are formed on the back plate 10 in accordance with the positions where the hook 20 is attached.
As described in detail below, the pouch P with a spout is suspended from the hook 20, and a front cover 30 made of corrugated cardboard or the like can be attached to the hook 20. In FIGS. 1 to 3, for convenience of explanation, the lengths of the left arm 22 and the right arm 23 are set so that one pouch P with a spout can be suspended. Needless to say, if the arm length is increased, (See FIG. 9), it is possible to suspend a plurality of pouches P with spouts.

4 is a perspective view of the hook 20, FIG. 5 is a plan view, FIG. 6 is a right side view, and FIG. 7 is a front view. Further, FIG. 8 is a front view of the front cover 30.

The hook 20 is made of plastic formed by resin molding, and a skeleton is formed by a base 21 that is in contact with the back plate 10, a left arm 22 that extends diagonally forward from the surface side of the base 21, and a right arm 23.
An upper back hook 24 and a lower back hook 25 are formed on the back surface side of the base 21, and the hook 20 is fixed to the back plate 10 by engaging with the square holes 13 and 14 of the back plate 10. be.

The left arm 22 and the right arm 23 extend in parallel with each other, and the inner space sandwiched between the left and right arms forms a long groove 26. The left arm 22 has a bottom wall 22a and a side wall 22b, and the right arm 23 has an L-shaped cross section due to the bottom wall 23a and the side wall 23b, respectively, and a pouch with a spout is suspended from the bottom walls 22a and 23a. It is designed so that it does not easily bend due to the load when it is applied.

Internal protrusions 22c and 23c are formed on the inner surface side of the bottom walls 22a and 23a in the vicinity of the tip of the left arm 22 and the vicinity of the tip of the right arm 23. The internal protrusions 22c and 23c gradually change from the tip of the arm in an arc shape so that the entrance and exit of the long groove 26 gradually narrows in a plan view. It is designed to spread. Further, the tip side of the internal protrusions 22c and 23c is inclined diagonally upward.

Near the tip of the left arm 22 and near the tip of the right arm 23, first outer protrusions 22d and 23d are formed on the outer surface side of the side walls 22b and 23b, and second outer protrusions 22e and 23e are formed behind the first outer protrusions 22d and 23d. .. The first outer protrusions 22d and 23d are formed with an inclined surface whose height increases on the outer side of the arm (outside of the side walls 22b and 23b) as the arm advances from the tip end side to the back side. Further, the first external protrusions 22d and 23d are cut out at diagonal cut surfaces 22f and 23f so that the upper side of each arm is lower than the lower side.

Regarding the positional relationship between the inner protrusions 22c and 23c and the first outer protrusions 22d and 23d, the position where the lateral width L is narrowed by the inner protrusions 22c and 23c (the position of the height peak of the inner protrusions 22c and 23c) is the first outer protrusion. It is designed to be on the back side of the protrusions 22d and 23d.

The second outer protrusions 22e and 23e are made higher than the maximum heights of the first outer protrusions 22d and 23d so as to function as a stopper when the front cover 30 is pushed inward.

The front cover 30 is made of a rectangular flat plate and is made of corrugated cardboard or a resin plate. The front cover 30 is formed with a window hole 31 (square hole) through which the left arm 22 is inserted and a window hole 32 (square hole) through which the right arm 23 is inserted. The maximum distance M between the window holes 31 and 32 is set to substantially match the distance between the outer surfaces of the side walls 22b and 23b, whereby the front cover 30 has the first outer protrusion 22d and the second outer protrusion 22e. When it is inserted up to the gap, it is sandwiched between these protrusions and locked.

Next, the operation of using the portable display device of the present invention will be described. The operator puts the portable display device in the state shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 in the backyard. That is, the back plate 10 is suspended by the hanging strap 11, and the spout portion PS of the pouch P with a spout on the left arm 22 (bottom wall 22a) and the right arm 23 (bottom wall 23a) of the hook 20 (without the front cover 30). (Flange portion) is hooked on the long groove 26. The spout portion PS comes into contact with the internal protrusions 22c and 23c when passing through the entrance / exit portion of the long groove 26, but the elasticity of the left arm 22 and the right arm 23 expands the lateral width L between the internal protrusions 22c and 23c, resulting in a large resistance. It can be easily passed without receiving. After passing through the internal protrusions 22c and 23c, the spout portion PS can push between the left arm 22 and the right arm 23 to the depth of the long groove 26 with almost no resistance.

Subsequently, the tips of the left arm 22 and the right arm 23 are inserted into the window holes 31 and 32 of the front cover 30. Then, when the front cover 30 is pushed inward, the window holes 31 and 32 come into contact with the outer inclined surfaces of the first outer protrusions 22d and 23d. At this time, the left arm 22 and the right arm 23 are elastic so that the lateral width L between the internal protrusions 22c and 23c is reduced, and the front cover 30 easily moves to the back while receiving a small resistance. Then, when the first outer protrusions 22d and 23d are pushed in until the inclined surfaces are finished, the front cover 30 is fitted between the first outer protrusions 22d and 23d and the second outer protrusions 22e and 23e. As described above, the maximum distance M between the window holes 31 and 32 is set to substantially match the distance between the outer surfaces of the side walls 22b and 23b, so that the front cover 30 has the first outer protrusions 22d and 23d and the first. The two external protrusions 22e and 23e are gently held without coming off.

In this state, when the operator tries to move the portable display device of the present invention by hand with the hanging strap 11, a heavy pouch P with a spout is hung on the front side of the back plate 10. , There is nothing heavy on the back side of the back plate 10. Therefore, the weight balance is lost, the back plate 10 is tilted so that the front side faces downward, and the hook 20 is also tilted forward.

FIG. 9 is a diagram showing the movement of the pouch P with a spout in a state where the hook 20 is tilted forward. When the front cover 30 is not attached, as shown in FIG. 9A, the spout portion PS of the pouch with a spout that has moved from the back side hits the inner protrusions 22c and 23c, and further inner protrusions 22c and 23c due to inertial force. Try to push forward. At this time, since the left and right arms 22 and 23 are elastic and can be easily opened, the spout portion PS advances forward as it is and slides off the hook 20.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 9B when the front cover 30 is attached, the spout portion PS of the pouch with a spout that has moved from the back side hits the inner protrusions 22c and 23c, and further the inner protrusions 22c and 23c due to inertial force. Try to push forward. At this time, the front cover 30 prevents the left and right arms 22 and 23 from elastically opening. Therefore, since the spout portion PS is stopped in a state of being in contact with the internal protrusions 22c and 23c, it does not pop out from the hook 20.
By attaching the front cover 30 in this way, it is possible to reliably prevent the pouch with a spout from falling even if the hook 20 is in a forward tilted state.

To remove the attached front cover 30, the spout portion PS can be moved to the back side and can be removed by reducing the distance between the arms by utilizing the elasticity of the left and right arms 22 and 23.
Cut surfaces 22f and 23f are formed on the upper surfaces of the first outer protrusions 22d and 23d of the left and right arms 22 and 23. As shown in FIG. 2, there are cases where the upper side of the front cover 30 is pinched and rotated downward to be removed, and cases where the lower side is pinched and rotated upward to be removed. In the case, it can be easily removed because there is no "return" when removing it, and in the latter case, there is a "return" when removing it, and the front cover 30 is easily caught on the underside of the cut surfaces 22f and 23f, making it difficult to remove. ing. By doing so, for example, if the pouch P with a spout vibrates in a suspended state, it will collide with the lower side of the front cover 30, but the lower side of the front cover 30 is pinched and rotated upward to remove it. As in the case, the front cover 30 is caught on the lower side of the cut surface, and even if it collides, the front cover 30 is hard to come off.

Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described above, it is needless to say that the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment and may be modified.
For example, in the present embodiment, each arm has an L-shaped structure consisting of bottom walls 22a and 23a and side walls 22b and 23b, but any structure may be used as long as it can be hung by hooking the spout portion PS.
Further, the base 21 is fixed to the back plate 10 by the upper back hook 24 and the lower back hook 25, but other than this may be used. For example, if it is not necessary to make the base 21 removable, screwing or the like may be used, or the fixing may be reinforced with an adhesive.

The present invention can be used as a portable display device.
