Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a showcase for controlled- temperature exhibitors.
  • showcases for controlled-temperature exhibitors such as for example the counters in food shops, in which the temperature is kept at levels that preserve the products exhibited, or the display units of ice-cream parlors, in which the temperature is around -18°C, or the display units of rotisseries, which are normally heated to keep the exhibited food warm, are provided by walls composed of a single glass plate, with glass plates that simply rest against each other at contiguous corner edges and which are not joined with sealant.
  • the plates of conventional showcases are sometimes supported by uprights, for example corner uprights, which in practice constitute an impediment to viewing the products exhibited in the showcase.
  • Such uprights in addition to constituting a visual barrier, also define an additional thermal bridge between the inside of the exhibitor and the outside of the exhibitor, where the propagation of the cold or the heat would in reality be unwanted.
  • the aim of the present invention is to provide a showcase for controlled-temperature exhibitors that is capable of overcoming the drawbacks of conventional showcases.
  • an object of the invention is to provide a showcase for controlled-temperature exhibitors that thermally isolates the inside of the exhibitor in an optimal manner.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a showcase that achieves the isolation without detracting from the visibility of the products inside it.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a showcase that enables an energy saving in terms of conditioning of the inner space of the exhibitor.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a showcase for controlled-temperature exhibitors, that can be made using known systems and technologies.
  • a showcase for controlled-temperature exhibitors characterized in that it comprises a front wall, two side walls and an upper wall, said walls being each provided by at least two plates, at least one outer plate and at least one inner plate, which face each other and are spaced and substantially parallel, the inner plates being joined so as to define a first inner showcase, the outer plates being joined so as to define a second outer showcase arranged so as to surround said first inner showcase, said inner showcase and said outer showcase defining between them a single thermal insulation space, of which the sides that are open onto the outside are closed with profiled elements of the type for double glazing.
  • Figure 1 is a schematic side view of a temperature-controlled exhibitor with showcase according to the invention
  • Figure 2 is a perspective view of a showcase according to the invention in a first embodiment thereof;
  • Figure 3 is a detail of a perspective view of the showcase according to the invention as in Figure 2;
  • Figure 4 is a sectional side view of the showcase according to the invention in the first embodiment thereof;

  • Figure 7 is a sectional front view of a further detail of the showcase according to the invention in the second embodiment thereof.
  • a showcase for controlled-temperature exhibitors according to the invention is generally designated with the reference numeral 10.
  • the showcase 10 is shown in Figure 1 as being applied to a temperature-controlled exhibitor 11, with slideable plates LI and L2 for access to the food shelves Rl and R2, and, below the shelves, generic means of heat exchange S designed to produce and maintain a certain preset temperature within the exhibitor 11.
  • the showcase 10 comprises a front wall 12, two opposite side walls 13 and 14, and an upper wall 15.
  • Each one of the walls 12, 13, 14, 15 is provided by two plates, an outer plate 12a, 13a, 14a and 15a, and an inner plate 12b, 13b, 14b, 15b, which face each other and are spaced and substantially parallel.
  • the inner plates 12b, 13b, 14b, 15b are joined so as to define a first inner showcase 16, and the outer plates 12a, 13a, 14a, 15a are joined so as to define a second outer showcase 17 which is arranged so as to surround the first inner showcase 16.
  • the inner showcase 16 and the outer showcase 17 define between them a single thermal insulation space 18 of which the sides that are open onto the outside are closed with profiled elements of the type for double glazing 19, 20, 21, 22, 23 and 24.
  • the glass plates, 12a, 12b, 13a, 13b etc are preferably made of glass of the float type, i.e. provided with the float glass method, or of extra-clear, tempered or laminated glass.
  • the glass plates are mutually fixed, at a corner edge, by way of adhesive bonding, for example by way of adhesive bonding with adhesives that react to ultraviolet rays.
  • Two centering spacers 25 and 26 are provided, which are adapted to be interposed between pairs of facing corresponding plates of the inner showcase 16 and the outer showcase 17.
  • one centering spacer 25, the other spacer 26 being identical, is L-shaped, with a first part 25a adapted to be interposed between the plates 12a, 12b of the front wall 12, and with a second part 25b adapted to be interposed between the plates 15a, 15b of the upper wall 15.
  • the spacer 25 is made of substantially transparent or semitransparent plastic material, or other material with thermal insulation characteristics.
  • the showcase 10 is thus provided without further supporting profiled elements for the plates, and is thus self-supporting and with no thermal bridges between the inside and the outside of the showcase.
  • the showcase 10 is thus free from any visual barrier to the products exhibited within it, providing a transparent thermal partition that is applicable both to refrigerated exhibitors and to heated exhibitors, with an indicative and non-limiting field of application of between -30°C and +90°C.
  • a second embodiment of the showcase according to the invention is shown by way of example in Figures 6 and 7, and is therein designated with the reference numeral 110.
  • each one of the walls 112, 113, 115 that comprise it has a third plate 112c, 113c, 115c respectively, which is located even further inward than the corresponding inner plate 112b, 113b, 115b, the third plates 112c, 113c, 115c defining a third inner showcase 127, which is intended to form a second thermal insulation space 128 of which the sides that are open onto the outside are closed with profiled elements of the type for double glazing 129, 130, 131 similarly to what was described previously for the first embodiment.
  • the showcase 110 lends itself well to controlled-temperature exhibitors within which the temperature is brought to below zero.
  • two pairs of spacers are provided, each one comprising a first upper spacer 125 which is interposed between the outer showcase 117 and the first inner, or intermediate, showcase 116, and a second spacer 155 which is interposed between the first inner, or intermediate, showcase 116, and the second inner showcase 127.
  • the showcase according to the invention can also be implemented in equivalent variations of embodiment, without one of the walls described, for example without the upper wall, or without both of the side walls, or with a more complex shape and thus a greater number of walls.
  • a showcase for controlled- temperature exhibitors that thermally isolates the interior of the exhibitor in an optimal manner, and which at the same time achieves the isolation without detracting from the visibility of the products inside it, thanks to the plates which, sealed to each other so as to define two or more showcases placed inside each other, provide a showcase structure that is self-supporting, thermally isolating thanks to the space between the inner and outer plates, and completely transparent, owing to the absence of uprights or other structural elements.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une vitrine (10) pour présentoirs à température régulée (11) comprenant une paroi avant (12), deux parois latérales (13, 14) et une paroi supérieure (15). Les parois (12, 13, 14, 15) sont constituées chacune d'au moins deus plaques, soit une plaque extérieure (12a, 13a, 14a, 15a) et une plaque intérieure (12b, 13b, 14b, 15b) qui se font face, sont séparées l'une de l'autre et sont parallèles. Les plaques intérieures (12b, 13b, 14b, 15b) sont reliées entre elles et définissent une première vitrine intérieure (16) ; de même, les plaques extérieures (12a, 13a, 14a, 15a) sont reliées entre elles et définissent une seconde vitrine extérieure (17) conçue pour entourer la première vitrine intérieure (16). La première vitrine intérieure (16) et la seconde vitrine extérieure (17) définissent entre elles un espace unique (18) dont les côtés qui ouvrent sur l'extérieur sont fermés par des éléments profilés du type double vitrage (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24).
