Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Object of the Invention] Industrial Field of Use The present invention relates to a showcase for displaying products by placing them on a display stand, and more specifically, for holding the display stand rotatably. Regarding the improvement of the structure of.

BACKGROUND ART It would be very convenient if the shelf on which the products are placed could be held rotatably when loading and unloading the products from one direction, and this is especially effective in a showcase with a door.

Therefore, in order to hold the shelf in a rotatable manner, it is common practice to insert a pillar through the center of the shelf and arrange the shelf rotatably around the pillar.
Publication No. 96 is also an example.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention In the above publication, grooves are formed radially from the center of rotation in order to effectively drain water droplets that accumulate on the shelf. Note that when a product is placed on a shelf, since the shelf is centrally supported, a concentrated load is applied to the central part. This groove also works effectively from the point of view of reinforcement. however,
Upper and lower fixing members are required to rotatably hold the shelf, and when cleaning the shelf, the upper and lower fixing members must be removed and the shelf must be pulled out from the support. In addition, in order to remove the shelf from the column, it is necessary to remove the members that fix the column, making it difficult to attach and detach the shelf.

Therefore, the technical object of the present invention is to provide a showcase in which a rotatably held display stand can be easily attached and detached.

[Structure of the invention]

Means for Solving the Problems The showcase of the present invention is provided with a display stand on which products are placed at the bottom of a product storage section surrounded by a see-through member, and a display stand on the outer periphery of the lower surface of the display stand. A rotary recess formed in an annular shape, and a plurality of rotation auxiliary members each having a rotary body that is fitted into the rotary recess and supports the lower surface of the rotary recess, and rotates each of the rotary bodies. It is fitted into a recess to hold an exhibition stand rotatably and removably.

Function: A rotation recess is formed on the outer circumferential side of the lower surface of the exhibition stand to improve the strength of the exhibition stand, and at least three rotation auxiliary members are provided to support the exhibition stand, so that the load applied to each rotation auxiliary member is is reduced compared to the one supported at one place.

In other words, since the rotation recess is located on the outer periphery, when a product is placed on the center side of the display stand, the load will be distributed and received by each rotation support member, compared to a case where it is supported in one place. The load applied to one piece becomes smaller. On the other hand, since the rotating body fits into the rotating recess, horizontal movement of the display stand is restricted, and wobbling of the display stand is suppressed.

The display box (10) has a roughly spherical shape, and has a base (11) that forms the lower half and is generally circular when viewed from above, and an upper half that also serves as a cooling room and stores the products at the bottom. It consists of a product storage section (12) having a display stand (44) for display, and in this example, a display case (G).
It is placed on top of the

The product storage section (12) has a cubic curved surface, that is, a substantially hemispherical shape, and is surrounded by a see-through member (50) made of a transparent material, and the transparent material is made of, for example, a transparent resin such as acrylic acid resin. This will be referred to as a hood (50).

The base (11) has a ventilation chamber (13) in the upper layer and a lighting chamber (14) in the lower layer, and both chambers (13) (1
4) is divided by a heat insulating material (15A) and a light-transmitting member having heat insulating properties, such as transparent glass (15B). The ventilation room (13) introduces air (this is called cold air) that has been cooled by the machine box (20) and is conveyed through the ventilation pipe (30), and guides this cold air to the product storage section (12). The cold air supply part (16) as a high pressure space and the cold air as a low pressure space that collects the air (this is called return cold air) after cooling the product storage part (12) and leads it to the blast pipe (30). The return section (17) is formed as an independent section.

To explain an example of this ventilation chamber (13), the cold air supply section (
16), the cold air introduced from the cold air inlet (42) provided on the - side is sequentially turned to the center and directed upward toward the bottom surface of the turntable (44) through the opening (40) formed at the center of the top surface. A first standing wall (48A) and a second standing wall (48B) are erected, and both walls (48A) (48

Note that the transparent glass (15B) is a multi-layer transparent glass in which a plurality of glasses (three in this example) are arranged in parallel with an interval between each other to provide heat insulation with an air layer and to provide transparency. It has a luminous property. and a fluorescent light (
Using the central space surrounded by 46), various electrical components such as glow lamps and ballasts are arranged.

Then, a container (hereinafter referred to as a beverage container) (53) filled with a sales product, such as a medicinal solution or a soft drink, is placed on the turntable (44) located at the bottom of the product storage section (12). When placing a large number of beverage containers (53),
In addition to providing a product partitioning function to ensure that there is a gap between the beverage containers (53), the height position of the bottom receiving portion has been changed to make it easier to confirm from the outside that the beverage containers (53) are lined up. The turntable (44) is configured so that it also acts as a shelf formed by the above. That is, this turntable (44) has a circular shape in plan view,
It is formed into a spherical shape (more specifically, a curved surface of a part of a sphere) when viewed from the side so that the center is highest and becomes lower from the center to the periphery, and the lower part is a rotation assisting member (7o).
It is held so that it can rotate freely.

In addition, this turntable (44) has a shape (for example, a circle or a rectangle) whose plan view shape approximately matches the bottom shape of the product to be displayed (this is referred to as a limited product) for product partitioning.
A plurality of recesses 54) are arranged in an orderly manner. In this example, there are 24 circular recesses on the outermost periphery and 18 circular recesses (55
) are arranged in a ring shape, and the inner circular recess (55B)
is formed with a step so that the bottom surface is higher than the outermost circular recess (55A), and furthermore, ten rectangular recesses (56>) are formed inside. Place (55

〔Effect of the invention〕

As detailed above, according to the present invention, in order to hold the exhibition stand rotatably, a rotation recess is formed in the lower surface of the exhibition stand, and a rotation body is fitted into this rotation recess. This makes it easy to attach and detach the display stand. In addition, since the rotation recess is formed on the outer periphery of the lower surface of the exhibition stand, when products are placed on the outer periphery of the exhibition stand, the load applied to the rotation auxiliary members can be distributed by the number of rotation auxiliary members. This reduces the load on one rotation auxiliary member. Furthermore, the strength of the exhibition stand against loads is improved by forming the rotation recess. On the other hand, since the rotating body is fitted, the display stand is prevented from shaking in the horizontal direction, and stable placement can be achieved.
