Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a joint stay used when assembling a glass display case in which the case side, back, bottom, top, and shelf panels are made of a combination of sheet glass.

The purpose of this invention is to provide a joint stay for a glass display case that allows easy assembly and rearrangement of the glass plates that make up the side, back, bottom, top, and shelf of the case, and in particular provides a strong connection between each glass plate and a high degree of safety. The configuration of the illustrated embodiment will be explained as follows.

In the figure, 1 is a vertical member consisting of a square pipe along the entire length of the horizontal end surface of plate glass a that constitutes the side surface of the case, 2
is a short horizontal member made of a square pipe along a part of the horizontal end surface of the plate glass b constituting the back of the case, and this horizontal member 2 is L with respect to the vertical member 1.
They are connected in a letter or T shape. Reference numeral 3 denotes a vertical side frame made of a round bar attached to each side of the vertical and horizontal members 1 and 2 so as to protrude symmetrically in the vertical direction over almost the entire length thereof, and between the side frames 3 and 3. The respective horizontal ends of the glass plates a and b can be vertically symmetrically inserted into the L-shaped or T-shaped groove to be formed, butting against each other in an L-shape or T-shape. 4 is a retaining piece attached to the free end of the vertical member 1;
The plate glass a inserted into the groove is the vertical member 1
It is fixed to the end face of the vertical member 1 by welding in a state that protrudes upward and downward in order to prevent it from slipping out along the vertical direction. 5 is an L-shaped receiving piece made of a square pipe on which the edge of the case shelf glass c, which also functions as the bottom and top of the case, can be placed;
When the vertical and horizontal members 1 and 2 are L-shaped, this receiving piece 5 is connected to the inner side frame 3 from the inside of the vertical member 1 to the inner surface of the vertical member 1.
When the vertical member 1 is T-shaped, it is attached to the inner surface of the vertical member 1 from both sides with screws 6 together with the side frames 3 on both sides. Reference numeral 7 denotes a connecting rod made of a square pipe to which the horizontal members 2 can be connected, and both ends of the connecting rod 7 are fixed to the horizontal members 2 on both sides with screws 8, so that the connecting rods 7 extend along the horizontal end surface of the glass plate b. It's getting old. Note that this connecting rod 7 is for connecting the left and right joint stays, and may or may not receive the plate glass b.

Now, when assembling an all-glass rectangular display case as shown in Figure 3, L-shaped joint stays are fitted into both the upper and lower horizontal end surfaces of plate glass a to form the left side of the case, and Insert L-shaped joint stays into both the upper and lower horizontal end surfaces of plate glass a to form the right side of the case, and then fit plate glass b into the four joint stays so that the square is supported by the four joint stays. The back of the case is made up of two glass shelves c.
All you have to do is place them on top of each other to form the bottom and top surfaces of the case. In this case, both sides of each side plate a are held by the side frames 3, 3 at both upper and lower positions over almost the entire length, and each plate glass a is received by each retaining piece 4, so that each plate glass a Each plate glass a,
b and c are firmly held.

When the left and right joint stays are connected by the connecting rod 7 as in the above embodiment, the left and right glass plates a,
There is no need to worry about the a falling outward and collapsing. but,
In fact, even without the connecting rods 7, the case shelf glass c and the like are relatively heavy, so there is no need to worry about them collapsing.

Next, the plate glass d that makes up the left and right case sides and the plate glass e that makes up the back of the case are placed on top of the rectangular display case (Fig. 3) of the above embodiment, and then the two joint stays are attached. Then, by covering the case shelf glass c and assembling a new case upward, a multi-stage display case as shown in FIG. 4 is completed.
In this case, a special joint stay f whose side frame 3 does not protrude upward is used as the uppermost joint stay f.

Furthermore, in the square display case shown in Fig. 3, the L-shaped joint stay on the right side is changed to a T-shaped joint stay on both the upper and lower sides, and the glass plates a and b and the two shelf glasses c are attached to the right side of the case to form two L-shaped joint stays. When assembled using the letter-shaped joint stays, two display cases arranged side by side on the left and right as shown in FIG. 5 are completed. By using the T-shaped joint stay in this way, cases can be laid out freely in the horizontal direction, and by stacking cases on top of it as described above, they can be laid out freely upwardly as well.

Further, as shown in FIG. 6, by using a pedestal g with joint stays installed on both left and right sides, the uppermost joint stay f mentioned above, and a large glass stand h, an unusual display case layout can be created.

As explained above, the present invention allows the plate glasses a, b, and c that make up the side, back, bottom, and top surfaces of the case and the shelves to be easily assembled and rearranged without the need for tools. The glass plate a constituting the side surface of the case is held vertically over almost its entire length by the side frames 3, 3, and is held by the retaining piece 4 so as not to shift forward, so that the glass plate a does not sway horizontally. or plate glass b,
This has the effect that the square case is firmly held without shifting relative to the glass display case, and high safety can be obtained as a glass-covered display case. When a display case is assembled using this, a multi-stage display case can be created by stacking the square cases above a single square case, or a parallel display case can be created by arranging the square cases to the left and right. You can freely lay out the layout according to your preference and space.

[Brief explanation of the drawing]

The drawings show an embodiment of the present invention, in which FIG. 1 is a perspective view, FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view,
3 to 6 are perspective views of various display cases assembled using the joint stay of the present invention. In the figure, 1 is a vertical member, 2 is a horizontal member, 3 is a side frame, 4 is a retaining piece, 5 is a receiving piece, a is a plate glass for the side surface of the case, b is a plate glass for the back side of the case, and c is a case shelf glass.
