Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a shelf of a showcase installed in a store such as a retail store or a restaurant of various foods and drinks.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a showcase of this type,
For example, as described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2000-237000, a product storage unit whose front, back, and both sides are surrounded by transparent glass plates is provided in the product storage unit at intervals in the vertical direction. It is known that a plurality of product shelves are provided and an arbitrary product is displayed on each product shelf.

In this showcase, the inside of the product storage section is divided into upper and lower parts, and the upper part is heated and the lower part is cooled, thereby forming a hot room and a cold room in the product storage part. In this case, the products in the refrigerating compartment are heated by the heating plate provided on the product shelf, and the products in the refrigerating compartment are cooled by the cold air circulating in the compartment.

A price display plate for displaying the price of a product is attached to the product shelf. That is, the product shelf 10 shown in FIG. 10 has a holding member 13 for holding the price display plate 12 on the front end side of the shelf plate 11, and the holding member 13 is formed so as to hold the upper end and the lower end of the price display plate 12. Has been done.
Further, a cold / warm display plate may be attached to the holding member 13 instead of the price display plate 12.

[0005]

However, when the price display plate 12 is attached to the holding member 13, the cold / temperature display plate cannot be attached to the holding member 13, so that the price indication is displayed on the product shelf 10. There is a problem that it is not possible to display both the cold temperature display.

Further, in order to display both the price and cold / cold display of the product, a price display plate may be attached to the product shelf and the cold / heat display plate may be attached to the glass door of the showcase. In order to correspond to the change of position, it is necessary to provide the mounting parts for the cold / warm display plate at multiple locations in the vertical direction of the glass door, which complicates the structure and makes it possible to change the cold / warm display plate each time the vertical position of the product shelf is changed. Also had to be moved to the corresponding position, and there was a problem that the work became complicated.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to attach display plates that display different information, such as a commodity price plate and a cold temperature display plate, respectively. The purpose is to provide showcase product shelves.

[0008]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides, in claim 1, first information for displaying arbitrary information.
The display panel and the second display panel for displaying other arbitrary information, and each display panel is detachably held on the front end side thereof. A second display plate between a first holding part that holds the lower end side of the first display plate, and a predetermined member located on the upper end side and the back side of the first display plate held by the first holding part. And a second holding portion for holding.

As a result, the first display plate is held by the first holding part and the second display plate is held by the second holding part, so that both of the respective display plates are attached and the respective display is mounted. The board information is displayed at the same time. In this case, since the second holding portion is formed between the upper end side of the first display panel and the member located on the back side thereof, the second holding section is formed by utilizing a part of the first display panel. The display board is held.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the product shelf of the showcase according to the first aspect, the upper end side of the first display plate is transparently formed.

Thus, in addition to the function of claim 1, the second
Since the second display plate held by the holding part is visually observed from the outside through the transparent portion of the first display plate, the second display plate is not exposed to the outside from the second holding part. Information on each display board is integrally displayed in upper and lower two stages.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the showcase product shelf according to the first or second aspect, the first and second items are provided.
Different information is displayed on at least one of the front surface and the back surface of the display plate.

Thus, in addition to the operation of the first or second aspect, by turning the display plate over, either the information on the front surface or the information on the back surface can be selectively displayed.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in the showcase product shelf according to the first or second aspect, the first and second items are provided.
A display showing a product to be cooled is provided on one surface of one of the display plates, and a display showing a warm product is provided on the back surface thereof.

As a result, in addition to the operation of claim 1 or 2, the cold temperature display of the product displayed on one of the first and second display boards is displayed together with other information displayed on the other display board, By turning over the first or second display plate, it is possible to selectively display either one of a display showing a product to be cooled and a display showing a warm product. In this case, the first
Also, the cold temperature display of the product displayed on one of the second display plates is displayed together with other information displayed on the other display plate.

According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, in the product shelf of the showcase according to the first, second, third or fourth aspect, the first
The price of the product is displayed on either one of the second display board and the second display board.

Thus, in addition to the operation of claim 1, 2, 3 or 4, the price of the commodity displayed on one of the first and second display boards is combined with other information displayed on the other display board. Is displayed.
