DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a shelf used for displaying goods in a store such as a supermarket.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, on shelves for displaying products in supermarkets, convenience stores, and the like, a display card is detachably attached to a front edge portion so that the displayed product name and price can be checked at a glance. 2. Description of the Related Art A shelf board having an attached structure is known. As such a shelf board T,
As shown in FIG. 10, a shelf main body T for placing articles
One in which a display card mounting portion T3 for holding a display card is fixed to one front wall T2 by welding is known. Usually, this type of shelf board T is made of sheet metal, and the display card mounting portion T3 is formed by bending a strip-shaped sheet metal into a slightly concave shape toward the shelf board main body T1 side. The lower edges T3a and T3b are bent to face each other so as to easily hold the display card.

[0003]

However, in the above-described configuration, for example, after a shelf main body T1 that has been pressed is manufactured, a display card mounting portion T3 that has been roll-formed to be another production line is connected to a shelf. It must be fixed to the plate body by welding. That is, at least three steps having different properties are required to manufacture one shelf, and it is difficult to simplify the steps, and as a result, cost reduction is not easy. Further, the cut end surface of the sheet metal material is exposed at the lower edge T3b and the upper edge T3a of the display card attachment portion T3, which are the front ends of the shelf board T. If a finger or the like accidentally touches such a lower edge portion not only at the time of installing the shelf board T or at the time of exchanging the display card, but also at the time of shopping, a bad cut may result in a cut. And lacked safety. Further, the display card mounting portion T3 is
Since the lower edge T3b is protruding,
At the time of display or the like, the truck often collides and is deformed. In such a case, since the display card mounting portion is deformed, it is fixed to the shelf main body, so it is necessary to replace the entire shelf main body, and it is difficult to repair the display card mounting portion.

An object of the present invention is to solve such a problem.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention takes the following measures. That is, the shelf board according to the present invention includes a shelf board body and a leading edge member that constitute most of the article placement surface, and the leading edge member can be attached to and detached from the shelf board body via the connection mechanism. The leading edge member has an article mounting surface in a part thereof,
A separator for dividing the article mounting surface into multiple areas
Separator holding part that holds the front part, and an object on the article mounting surface
Front gar to prevent items from falling from the leading edge
Front guard mounting part for holding the
The display card holder provided continuously to the front edge of the card mounting part
It is characterized in that the attachment part is integrally formed .

[0006] Typical examples of such a leading edge member include an extruded product and a member made of a colored steel plate.
In the front edge member made of a color steel plate, the display card mounting portion is formed by continuously bending the color steel plate and bending the upper edge holding portion bent downward and the lower edge holding portion bending upward one sheet metal material. Is preferably formed integrally with the above.

[0007] The connection mechanism according to the present invention includes a bolt and a nut, a tapping screw, a concave groove provided in one of the shelf main body and the front edge member, and a concave groove provided in the remaining one. An engaging recess provided at an upper portion of a front edge portion of the shelf board body, an engaging edge provided at a lower portion thereof, and an engaging recess provided at an upper portion of a rear edge portion of the front edge member. An example includes a hanging piece that engages with the engaging recess and a locking upstanding piece that is provided below the engaging piece and locks the engaging edge.

[0008]

With such a construction, the front edge member is detachably joined to the front end of the shelf board body via the connection mechanism, so that the type of the shelf board is changed by replacing the front edge member. It becomes possible. That is, by using a configuration in which a plurality of types of leading edge members are prepared for one type of shelf board body, the type can be easily changed by replacing the leading edge member with another type. In addition, since the leading edge member is joined to the shelf body via the connection mechanism, large-scale manufacturing equipment such as welding is not required, and the manufacturing equipment can be simplified, thereby reducing manufacturing costs. It is possible to do.
