Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Field of Application) The present invention relates to a display fixture support cap that is placed over the upper end of a display fixture support support such as a display shelf for decorative purposes.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, as described in, for example, Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 60-193144, an elongated auxiliary material having latch holes at a constant pitch in a sheath groove provided along the entire length in the side surface. At the upper end of the cylindrical column where the member is inserted and held,
A disc-shaped base metal fitting that covers the entire end of the column is screwed, the upper end of the sheath groove is closed by the base metal fitting to prevent the auxiliary member from moving upward, and the lower end is opened. A support column is known in which a threaded rod is screwed into the center of the inside of the cap and is screwed into a threaded hole in the center of the base metal so that the cap can be mounted on the base metal.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) However, in such a support, a disk-shaped base metal fitting is screwed in advance to the upper end of the support, and the cap is attached to the base metal fitting via a threaded rod. Therefore, when installing the cap, other members such as base metal fittings, screws, threaded rods, etc. are required in addition to the cap, and there are problems in that the assembly and disassembly are laborious and workability is poor, and the cost is also relatively high. In addition, since the base metal fittings provided to stably hold the auxiliary members in the sheath grooves of the struts and arrange the hanging holes of the net shelf in a stable vertical line are made separately from the caps, the members As the number increases, there is a problem in that it takes time and effort to assemble and disassemble.

The object of the present invention is to provide a cap for a display fixture support that solves these conventional problems.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to solve the above problems, the display fixture support support cap of the present invention has a long cap having locking holes at a constant pitch in grooves provided along the entire length in the side surface. An inner circumferential surface of a cap main body having an open lower end, which is placed over the upper end of a hollow column in which a length-shaped locking member is inserted and held and has a plurality of pin holes along the length on the inner surface of the upper end. A plurality of pins protrude from the lower end edge and hang down from the cap body, and a vertical plate piece is integrally provided on the inner peripheral surface of the cap body along the radial direction of the body,
The lower end edge of the plate piece and the lower end edge of the main body are located in substantially the same plane, the pin is inserted into the pin hole of the support, and the lower end edge of the vertical plate piece is located at the upper end of the locking member. It is made so that it abuts or faces the part.

(Example) The present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In the drawing, 1 is a support for display fixtures,
It is made from metal, synthetic resin-coated metal, etc.
The support column 1 is a hollow support column having an appropriate shape such as a circular, square, or polygonal cross section. Further, a groove 11 is provided on the side surface of the support column 1 over the entire length thereof, and a long locking member 12 is inserted and held in the groove 11. A large number of locking holes 13 are bored in the locking member 12 at a constant pitch in the length direction, and shelf arms and locking arms of various members can be locked in the locking holes 13. Further, in the case of FIG. 1, the locking member 12 is held between the opening edge 15 of the groove 11 and the protrusion 16 projecting inside the groove 11, but this holding member 12 is not necessarily required. The method is not limited. Generally, four grooves 11 are provided so as to divide the outer circumference of the support column 1 into four, but the number of grooves 11 is also four.
Not limited to. Further, a plurality of pin holes 14 are provided in the inner surface of the upper end of the support column 1 along the length direction. The pin hole 14 is formed by a semi-cylindrical holding tube projecting from the inner surface of the support column 1, as shown in FIG.

Reference numeral 2 represents the cap body, which is made of synthetic resin, metal, or the like. The cap body 2 has an open lower end and is placed over the upper end of the support column 1, and its shape is hemispherical as shown in Figure 1, and the head is flat as shown in Figures 6 and 7. It is shaped like a short cylinder. A plurality of pins 21 project from the inner peripheral surface of the cap body 2 and hang down from the lower edge of the cap body 2. The pin 21 is the support 1
It is provided corresponding to the pin hole 14, and has an outer diameter approximately equal to the hole diameter of the pin hole 14. Further, a vertical plate piece 22 is integrally provided on the inner circumferential surface of the cap body 2 along the radial direction of the cap body 2, and the lower edge of the plate piece 22 and the lower edge of the cap body 2 are approximately parallel to each other. They are located in the same plane.
The vertical plate pieces 22 are provided corresponding to the grooves 11 of the support column 1, more specifically, the locking members 12 inserted into the grooves 11, and generally a plurality of plates are provided.

Therefore, the cap of the present invention has a cap main body 2.
The pin 21 is inserted into the pin hole 14 of the support 1 to cover the upper end of the support 1. At the same time, as shown in FIG. It is designed to prevent the movement of

(Effects of the invention) As detailed above, in the display fixture support cap of the present invention, a plurality of pins protrude from the lower edge of the inner peripheral surface of the cap body and hang down, and the pins are fitted into the pin holes of the support. As a result, the cap can be easily attached and detached by fitting the pin and the pin hole, and work efficiency can be improved.

Further, a vertical plate piece is integrally provided on the inner circumferential surface of the cap body along the radial direction of the cap body, and the lower edge of the plate piece and the lower edge of the cap body are located in substantially the same plane, Since the lower end edge of the vertical plate is in contact with or opposed to the upper end of the locking member in the concave groove of the column, by placing the cap over the upper end of the column, the cap can be moved above the locking member of the column. The locking holes of shelf arms, etc. can be arranged and maintained in a stable vertical line, and the number of parts is reduced, making assembly and disassembly easier. It doesn't cost.

Furthermore, since the mounting pin and the vertical plate piece are integrally provided on the cap body, there is no need for extra components such as base metal fittings, screws, and threaded rods in addition to the cap, which is required in the past, and the number of components can be reduced. However, it does not take much time to manage inventory, it can be inexpensive in terms of cost, and it can be easily attached to and removed from the support.
