Abstract

PURPOSE: To prevent exhibited goods placed on racks from tumbling or hopping out caused by the centrifugal force of rack rotation by forming a plurality of stages belonging to each rack unit in tiers, inclining the top faces of each stage in such a way as higher toward the peripheries, and furnishing riser walls at the peripheries of the stage. CONSTITUTION: A vertical shaft 2 is installed upright in the center of a base leg 1, and rack units 3 are installed in such a way as rotatable freely round the shaft. Each rack unit 3 is equipped with a plurality of stages 4 in the form of tiers in such a way that the center is made higher. The top faces 5 of each stage are inclined higher toward the peripheries, and riser walls 6 are furnished at the peripheral edges of the stage. This form of tiers permits a customer to view many items of goods easily and allows the shop owner, etc., to make management easily. The goods are likely to tumble or scatter with the centrifugal force when the rack units are rotated, but the inclination of the top surfaces 5 and provision of the riser walls 6 preclude the risk.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a rotating display rack.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Rotating display shelves for sale are those in which each shelf is divided by planes or partitions, and those with many hooks for hanging products,
Some of them have glass doors, but they all have difficulty in processing the centripetal force due to rotation.

[0003]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] A large number of small and constant-sized products, which are attractive and easy to manage, and which are displayed so as not to pop out due to the centrifugal force of rotation, are supplied safely and inexpensively. .

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems] Each shelf of a rotating display shelf is formed in a tiered shape with a plurality of steps centered high in all directions, and the top surface of each step is inclined high in the outer peripheral direction. A plurality of shelves with rising walls provided on the outer peripheral edge of each stage are rotatably attached to a vertical axis. Also, a plurality of these shelves are fixed vertically and rotated as a unit. Concentric circles are formed on the shelves. The above shelf can be integrally formed by vacuum forming, or a height increasing plate can be extended to the rising wall of the vacuum formed shelf.

[0005]

[Function] When a plurality of steps are formed in a step-like shape, the top surface of each step is inclined in the outer peripheral direction to a high degree, and a rising wall is provided on the outer peripheral edge of each step, the shelf rotates and the shelf is centrifugally generated. Prevent the products on the table from falling or popping out. If you fix multiple shelves up and down and rotate them together, the rotating part only needs to be in one place to stabilize each shelf, and if you move one shelf, the other shelves will move at the same time. If each step is concentric, the classification of products is not limited to a certain size, and even if it hits a person or an object, damage is minimized and the rotation of shelves and the passage of people are not obstructed. If the shelves are integrally formed by vacuum forming, the number of production steps will be greatly reduced. By extending the height-increasing plate on the rising wall of the vacuum-formed shelf, the displayed products will not fall due to the centrifugal force of rotation.

【Example】

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an embodiment of the present invention. A vertical axis (2) is set up in the center of a base leg (1), and a shelf (3) can freely rotate about the axis. Each shelf (3) can be freely rotated. You can rotate it, you may rotate all or several together, you can freely associate and compare the upper and lower products by rotating separately, the structure is simple if you rotate together It has the advantage that it can be made robust, and if you turn the easy-to-turn steps by hand, the lower and upper difficult-to-turn steps move together. The shelves (3) are made up of a plurality of steps (4) with a high center and in a tiered shape.
And, the top surface (5) of each step is inclined with a high outer peripheral direction,
Further, by providing a rising wall (6) on the outer peripheral edge of each step, many products can be easily displayed and managed by using a tier, and when the shelves are rotated, the product is centrifugally applied to the product.
There is a risk of falling or scattering, but due to the inclination of the top surface (5),
This can be prevented by the outer peripheral rising wall (6).

In general, many rotating display shelves hang products on hooks, but it is troublesome to replenish the products, the products in the back are invisible, the few products are hidden in the back, and the packaging of the products is also performed. It is bulky, complicated, expensive and inconvenient.
With the rotating display rack of the present invention, simple packaging (such as putting in a box)
It's good for me to replenish merchandise, just put it on, I can handle several merchandise at a time and process it at once, and because there is no hidden part behind it, it is very convenient for displaying multiple varieties Is.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a shelf according to another embodiment of the present invention, in which tiered steps (4) are concentrically arranged. There is less risk of injury, which is important because the shelves rotate, and square objects are easily placed in the corners in a narrow exhibition space, while round objects are easily placed in the central space. ,
Contribute to increased sales. It is difficult to make circular shelves (concentric circular steps) by the usual method, but it is very easy to make a plastic plate by vacuum forming, including making a mold. In addition, if it is vacuum forming, not only circles but also polygons, indefinite shapes, corner circles and other free shapes can be created, and in the present invention that uses multiple shelves in one display shelf, the cost of the mold is amortized. There is an advantage of reducing the burden. Further, by cutting the outermost one step in all directions along the cutting line (9) (a portion indicated by a dotted line), it is possible to make a shelf which is slightly smaller, which is also convenient for making a change such that the upper step is made smaller and the lower step is made larger.

Furthermore, when integrally formed by vacuum forming, the plate material increases the rigidity due to the curved surface, and the shelf support material (7) for supporting the shelf can be simplified. FIG. 3 shows this shelf support material. FIG. 4 is a partial cross-sectional view of the step (4) of the vacuum forming shelf (4)
Attach the height-increasing plate (8) inside the rising wall (6). In vacuum molding, not only is it difficult to produce if you make too large irregularities, but that part becomes thin, which is a weak point,
Therefore, it is difficult to form a rising wall having a height that can sufficiently resist the circular force caused by the rotation of the shelf, and therefore, the height increasing plate (8) secures a sufficient height. Further, in general, the shelf (3) is often made opaque for the purpose of hiding the shelf support material (7), the base leg (1) axis (2), and the like, and it is transparent as a coloring method. It is common to spray paint from the back side of the board, but as a product display shelf, I do not want to raise the standing wall too much to show the product, so I made this height increasing plate (8) transparent and both The purpose was achieved at the same time.

In addition to the embodiments described above, fixed shelves, shelves with hooks, etc. may be combined with the rotating shelves of the present invention, and vacuum-formed shelves, shelves made by other methods, and high shelves. You may combine a shelf with a pad and a shelf without a pad, etc.
You may attach casters to the base leg, attach multiple shafts to one base leg, or attach the rotating display shelf of the present invention to a part of the building. It can also be moved to.

[00011]

[Effects of the Invention] The top surface of each step is tilted high in the outer peripheral direction,
Providing a rising wall at the outer peripheral edge of each step prevents the products placed on the shelves from falling down or popping out by centrifugal force. When a plurality of these shelves are vertically fixed and integrally rotated, only one rotating portion is required, and each shelf is easily stabilized, and since all the shelves can be rotated by rotating the easily rotatable portions, it is very easy to handle. Compared to the type that hangs the product on the hook, it is easy to pack (put it in a box), the packaging cost is low, the product is easy to replenish, and several products can be hand held and processed at once. It is convenient for displaying a wide variety because there is no hidden part behind it.

[00012] By making each step concentric, the classification of goods is not limited to a certain size, damage is minimized even if it hits people or objects, it does not interfere with the rotation of shelves and the passage of people, and it is round. Since the object is suitable for being placed in the center of the sales floor, it is easy to place it in an eye-catching place, thus contributing to sales promotion. If the shelves are integrally formed by vacuum forming, the production man-hours are greatly reduced and it is not only cheap, but also very convenient for making the concentric shelves and the rounded corner shelves. Because of its high rigidity, the shelf support material that supports the shelf can be simplified. By extending the height-increasing plate on the rising wall of the vacuum-formed shelf, not only will the displayed products not fall due to the centrifugal force of rotation, but also
By making the shelves opaque and making the boards of increased height transparent, it is possible to hide the shelves while showing products and to color the shelves appropriately as a back color.
