Definitions

• This specification refers, as its title indicates, to an improved label holder profile, of the type used in the shelves of commercial establishments and warehouses to support and protect price tags, features, etc. of the products placed in said shelf, characterized in that it has separate and independent anchors for the attachment to the shelf and for the determination of the angle of positioning of the label, and of a double sheet with transparent front for the accommodation of the label, with independent movement of the two previous anchors.
• label-holder profiles can be of several types: solid and rigid ones, which are anchored to the profile as a dovetail of the shelf, and which have the great disadvantage that, given their structural rigidity, there is a high probability of that, with any accidental contact or rubbing with the merchandise deposited on the shelves when depositing or extracting them, detachment of the shelf label holder takes place, with the consequent possibility of breakage, since normally these label holder profiles have a length considerable. Also, given its rigidity this type of label holder profiles can only have a single inclination of the front where the paper label is attached, which adds the additional drawback of
• SUBSTITUTE SHEET RULE 26 that when different inclinations of the labels are necessary, for example to compensate for the different height of the shelves of the shelves and thus facilitate their readability by the client or user, it will be necessary to have profiles manufactured with different angles on their front , with the consequent increase in the cost of needing different models.
• SUBSTITUTE SHEET RULE 26 Easily position the position anchor, thereby modifying the angle of inclination of the front band and forcing maintenance personnel to frequently correct their position.
• the improved label holder profile object of the present invention has been devised, which is intended for use in shelves equipped with a lateral profile as of dovetail, as in the previous cases, and is formed by a single profile, of variable length, in which there are three clearly differentiated parts:
• Position anchoring is the intermediate part that is responsible for carrying out the position anchoring by means of the selective interlocking of a lower semi-cylindrical termination in different parts provided for it, keeping firmly in the position fixed by the intrinsic elasticity of the construction material.
• This position anchor is related to the upper horizontal end of the anchor to the shelf or rear part by means of a flexible zone formed by a narrowing that gives it a swinging movement with respect to said part.
• Visor is the front part that performs the function of label holder band, formed by a double parallel sheet, with the outermost part formed by a transparent material.
• the double parallel sheet is open at the top to allow the information label to slide inside. This viewer is also related to the above mentioned
• SUBSTITUTE SHEET RULE 26 horizontal top of the anchorage to the shelf or rear part by means of a flexible zone formed by an emerging narrowing of the upper part of the internal viewfinder sheet that gives it a swinging movement with respect to the rear part and therefore also with respect to the intermediate part .
• the viewfinder, or front part rests by gravity on the front part of the position anchor, thus adopting approximately the same angle of inclination as it but maintaining its free movement with respect to both the position anchor and the shelf anchor.
• this viewfinder having independent movement, allows that, even if it is accidentally struck or moved with the materials deposited on the shelf or by the users, it does not affect either the preselected angle or the anchorage to the
• the position anchor allows you to quickly and safely fix the position assigned to the viewfinder between the various possible angles by quickly locking its end at the points provided for it. This position can then be easily modified at any time simply by varying the anchor point.
• Another advantage of the present invention is that the manipulation by the personnel for the placement or change of identification tags is carried out quickly, since having the viewfinder independent movement of the other parts can be handled comfortably, since it does not alter the preset angle for the viewfinder.
• the viewfinder When the viewfinder is released, it always returns automatically to its resting position on the position anchor, which in turn is independent of the shelf-side anchoring, whereby any operation with it can be carried out without the need to release the profile or readjust or modify the angle of inclination.
• Another added advantage is that, unifying in a profile all the necessary functionalities allows to greatly reduce the need to manufacture and store different types of label profile, thus allowing a much larger series manufacturing, with the consequent economic improvement of the process.
• figure - 1 - shows an improved label-holder profile with a flat viewfinder in vertical position.
• Figure -2- shows an improved label-holder profile with flat viewfinder in intermediate tilt position.
• Figure -3- shows an improved label-holder profile with flat viewfinder in maximum tilt position.
• Figure -4- shows an alternative embodiment of an improved label holder profile with the viewfinder curved along its entire length.
• Figure -5- shows an alternative embodiment of an improved label holder profile with the viewer with a curved fold that separates it into two straight sections at a different angle.
• Figure -6- shows an alternative embodiment of an improved label holder profile with the viewer with a straight fold that separates it into two straight sections at a different angle.
• the improved label-holder profile object of the present invention is basically formed, in its preferred practical embodiment with a straight viewfinder, as can be seen in the attached plane, by a single profile, of variable length, preferably made of thermoplastic materials, in the that there are three clearly differentiated parts:
• Position anchor (6) is the intermediate part that is responsible for carrying out the position anchor by means of the selective interlocking of a lower semi-cylindrical termination (7) in different parts provided for it. This position anchor is related to the
• Viewfinder (9) is the front part that performs the function of label holder band, formed by a double parallel sheet, mostly straight profile, with the outermost part (10) formed by a transparent material.
• the double parallel sheet is open at the top (11) to allow the information label to slide inside.
• This viewfinder (9) is also related to the above horizontal top end
• SUBSTITUTE SHEET RULE 26 perfectly, it is in this case forming an angle close to 45 ° with the anchoring part to the shelf (1).
• the viewfinder (9) is supported by gravity on the position anchor (6), therefore being approximately at the same angle as it.
