Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a product display shelf of a showcase, and more particularly to a mounting structure for a tag mall mounted on the front surface of the product display shelf.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art First, an open showcase to which the present invention is applied and a conventional tag mall mounting structure mounted on a product display shelf incorporated in the showcase are shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. First, in FIG. 2, 1 is an outer case of the case main body, 2 is an inner case, 3 is a cold air circulation duct defined between the outer case 2 and the inner case 3, 4 is a cooler (evaporator of refrigerator),
Reference numeral 5 is an internal fan, and 6 is a product display shelf in which the upper and lower rows are arranged in the internal box 2 and installed in the internal box 2. A rail-shaped tag molding 8 is attached to the front frame portion of the display shelf 6 along the longitudinal direction of the shelf that is supported. Here, the tag molding 8 is made as an extruded aluminum product, and as shown in FIG.
It is installed by fitting into.

The tag mall 8 is for inserting and supporting a tag (paper or plastic sheet) 10 on which the product name, price, bar code and the like of the product displayed on the product display shelf 6 are inserted and supported. Also doubles as a veneer. Further, as the product display shelf 6, a steel plate shelf manufactured by sheet metal working of one thin steel plate, or a glass shelf in which a glass shelf plate is placed on a steel plate shelf frame is known.

The tag molding 8 is directly screwed to the front frame portion 6a of the product display shelf 6 without using the fittings 9, and if necessary, a gap between the front end surface of the display shelf 6 and the tag molding 8. There is also one in which a glass fence 11 is attached.

[0005]

The conventional product display shelves described above, particularly the tag molding mounted on the front frame portion of the shelves and the mounting structure thereof, have the following drawbacks. That is, in order to attach the tag molding 8 made of an aluminum extruded product to the product display shelf 6, the tag molding 8 is attached via the mounting bracket 9 as a separate component as described above, or the tag molding 8 is attached to the shelf frame. Since it is necessary to screw it directly to the front surface, the mounting work takes time and labor, which is one of the factors that increase the manufacturing cost.

The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object of the present invention is to provide a product display shelf with a tag mall in which a tag mall can be easily attached to a product display shelf of a showcase by one-touch operation. Especially.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above object, according to the present invention, a tag molding is made of a plastic molded product, and the tag molding is erected on a front frame portion of a product display shelf. It shall be assembled by fitting it on the seat piece. Further, it is preferable that the mall mounting seat piece in the above configuration is formed by cutting and raising from the front frame portion of the product display shelf.

The tag molding is manufactured as an extruded plastic product having a mounting base bent in a hairpin shape at the upper end and a locking portion for hooking the rear edge to the lower edge of the shelf frame at the lower end. .

[0009]

In the above structure, when the tag molding is mounted on the product display shelf, the hairpin-shaped mounting base formed on the upper portion of the tag molding is fitted into the molding mounting seat upright from the front frame portion of the shelf, and the lower end is attached. Hook the locking part projecting rearward from the part on the lower edge of the shelf frame and attach it in place. In this case, the plastic tag molding can be elastically deformed and can be stably held in a fixed position by its spring action, and its mounting work can be easily performed by a touch operation without requiring any screwing. In addition, in the mounted state, the gumor sandwiches the shelf frame from above and below, so there is no risk of falling off even if some external force is applied.

[0010]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 (a) and 1 (b). First, the tag molding 12 mounted on the front surface of the product display shelf 6 is made of a plastic extruded product, and has an attachment base portion 12a bent backward in a hairpin shape at its upper end and a lower end at its lower end. A locking portion 12b that projects toward the back is formed. On the other hand, a front frame portion 6a in which the front portion of the product display shelf 6 is sheet-metal with a U-shaped cross section
A molding attachment seat piece 6b is formed by cutting and raising several points along its upper edge. To mount the plastic tag molding 12 on the product display shelf 6, first, the mounting base 12a of the tag molding 12 is inserted into the molding mounting seat piece 6b from above, and then the locking portion 1 formed at the lower end.
Hang 2b on the underside of the shelf frame and fix it in place using the spring action of the tag mall itself.

When removing the tag molding 12 for cleaning the product display shelf 6, the engaging portion 12b can be pulled out from the shelf frame to the front, and then the tag molding 12 can be pulled upward to pull it out. it can.

[0012]

As described above, according to the configuration of the present invention, the following effects are exhibited as compared with the conventional product display shelf in which the tag molding of the aluminum extrusion molding is mounted. 1) Since the plastic tag molding is fitted in the fitting type, screw fastening is not required at all, and the number of parts and man-hours can be reduced and the cost can be reduced.

2) The tag mall can be easily attached to and detached from the product display shelf by a touch operation, and the work can be performed easily in a short time, and the elasticity of the plastic material can be used to stably support the tag mall in a fixed position. 3) Since the tag mall is made of plastic, there is no risk of injury even if it is hit by the shopper, and safety is improved.
