Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a box-shaped display case, which is used independently in a museum or an art gallery, and which is arranged independently on a floor, and more particularly to a display case provided with a lighting device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventional display cases include those with or without a lighting device. The display case equipped with a lighting device is one in which the lighting device is mounted inside a case that houses an exhibit. Such examples include those described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 4-38786, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 6-46372, and the like.

[0003]

However, if the illuminating device provided in the ceiling of a museum or art gallery has sufficient illuminance, it is not necessary to use the illuminating device provided in the display case itself. In this case, it is desirable to remove the lighting device from the display case in order to secure the exhibition space. However, in the conventional display case, the built-in lighting device cannot be removed, and the exhibition space can be used efficiently. could not.

Further, in the conventional display case with a built-in lighting device, the hot air generated by the lighting device may be trapped inside the case and the temperature inside the case may rise, which may adversely affect the exhibits. It requires a means for adjusting to an appropriate temperature, which requires extra cost and effort.

Furthermore, in the display case with a built-in lighting device,
When the illuminating lamp of the illuminating device runs out, it is necessary to open the display case in order to replace the illuminating lamp, and the replacement work is troublesome.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a removable lighting device, which does not have a risk of exerting a heat influence on an exhibit.
It also aims to provide an exhibition case that is easy to replace lighting and has excellent anti-theft properties.

[0007]

According to the present invention, the above problems can be solved as follows. (1) In an exhibition case in which at least the upper surface of the case body provided with an exhibition stand has a transparent upper lid,
An illumination box, which is composed of a box-shaped member that opens downward and has illumination means attached to the inside thereof, is detachably attached to the case body by the attachment means so as to cover the upper surface of the upper lid.

(2) In the above item (1), the mounting means is
A hinge comprising a hinge half member fixed to one of the case body and the lighting box and having a shaft pin, and a hinge half member fixed to the other and having a semicircular bent portion hooked on the shaft pin. .

(3) In the above item (1) or (2), the lighting box is provided with a vent hole.

(4) In any one of the above items (1) to (3), it is attached to the lower part of the lighting box so as to abut the upper surface of the upper lid, and is provided between the lower end of the lighting box and the upper surface of the upper lid. A spacer that forms a gap is provided.

[0011]

According to the present invention, the interior of the display case is illuminated by the illumination lamp in the detachable illumination box mounted on the upper lid.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the display case of the present invention shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is a transparent upper lid (2) having an upper surface, a front surface and both side surfaces of an upper part of a case body (1) having an internal display stand. It is configured with. A caster (3) for movement and an adjuster leg (4) for stationary are provided on the lower part of the case body (1). The upper lid (2) is made of glass or a transparent acrylic resin plate or the like, and its lower portion and rear portion are securely attached to the support portion (5) forming a part of the case body (1).

On the upper surface (5a) of the supporting portion (5) for supporting the rear portion of the upper lid (2), the lighting box (6) has a hinge (7),
It is mounted so as to cover the rear part of the transparent top lid (2).

The hinge (7) is the lower rear part (6a) of the lighting box.
Hinge half member (7a) attached to the and the support part of the upper lid (2)
It consists of a hinge half member (7b) attached to the upper surface (5a) of (5). One of the hinge half members (7a) is formed by inserting a shaft pin (10) into cylindrical portions (9) (9) arranged side by side at an interval (8). The other hinge half (7b) is the hinge half
It is attached to the upper surface (5a) so as to correspond to (7a), and has an engaging portion (11) bent in a semicircular shape having a width corresponding to the space (8) between the cylindrical portions of the hinge half member (7a). are doing.

The illuminating box (6) is in the shape of a box with an open bottom, and has a reflector (12) and an illuminating means (13) such as a fluorescent lamp fixture installed inside. This lighting box
There are ventilation holes (14) on both sides of (6), and
A spacer (15) is attached to the lower surface front part (6b). Reference numerals (16a) and (16b) are power connectors for the lighting means (13).

The lighting box (6) has its hinge half member (7a).
The shaft pin (10) of the above is hooked on the engaging portion (11) of the hinge half member (7b) attached to the upper surface (5a) of the support portion (5) of the upper lid (2), which is bent in a semi-circular shape, and the whole of It is rotated forward so that the illuminating means (13) can illuminate the inside with the spacer (15) in contact with the upper surface of the upper lid (2) as shown by the solid line in FIG.

FIG. 3 shows a cosmetic cover (16) having a hinge half member (7a). This is the above-mentioned lighting box when the interior lighting is sufficiently bright and the lighting of the display case itself is unnecessary.
Remove (6) and instead replace the top surface (5a) of the top lid (2)
This is for improving the appearance by engaging with and attaching to the hinge half member (7b).

[0018]

According to the present invention, on the upper surface of the transparent upper lid,
Since the lighting box equipped with the lighting means inside with the box-shaped member that opens downward is detachably attached, the lighting means such as the fluorescent lamp can be easily replaced without opening the upper lid and the display case for the lighting equipment If there is no restriction on the exhibition space inside, and if the illuminance of the lighting device installed in the ceiling of museums, etc. is sufficient,
If necessary, the lighting box can be removed and used to increase the display efficiency.

Further, since the lighting box is externally attached, the heat dissipation is superior to the conventional display case with a built-in lighting device, and the temperature inside the display case does not rise.

Further, since it is not necessary to open and close the upper lid to replace the lighting means, the upper lid is fixed to the case body,
The anti-theft property and the airtightness of the display part can be improved.
(Inventions described in all claims).

According to a second aspect of the present invention, the means for attaching the upper lid to the lighting box is fixed to either one of the upper lid and the lighting box and has a hinge half member having a shaft pin, and the other half is fixed to the shaft. A hinge consisting of a hinge half member having a semi-circular bent part that is caught on a pin,
The illumination box can be easily attached and detached, and the illumination box can be pivoted upward about the hinge to easily inspect the illumination means and replace the illumination lamp.

When the ventilation box is provided in the lighting box as in the third aspect of the invention, the effect of the lighting means on the temperature in the display case can be eliminated in combination with the external mounting of the lighting box. it can.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, a spacer is provided which is attached to the lower portion of the lighting box so as to abut the upper surface of the upper lid and forms a gap between the lower end of the lighting box and the upper surface of the upper lid. Further, the heat dissipation can be further enhanced, and it is possible to avoid the temperature rise in the display case due to the lighting at all.
