Definitions

  • the invention relates to a storey tower for displaying goods comprising at least two stacked shelves arranged one above the other, which are detachably connected to one another by a plurality of spacing supports, and a standing surface for installation on an essentially horizontal shelf, wherein a shelf is formed by a base plate and is surrounded by a surrounding wall arrangement .
  • Such a floor tower is known for example from DE-GM 84 03 538.
  • a floor is formed by a substantially horizontal plate, which is enclosed all around by the surrounding wall arrangement.
  • the surrounding wall arrangement protrudes along all edges equally far above and above the horizontal of the base plate of the floor.
  • the invention has for its object to develop a floor tower of the generic type in such a way that the view of the foremost exhibited goods is improved and nevertheless a safe storage of the goods on the respective storey floor is guaranteed even when the stability of the goods, for example at high Packs with a small footprint that is inherently small.
  • the surrounding wall arrangement comprises a front wall of the base plate which is essentially downward along a front edge of the base plate and a rear wall which is essentially upwards directed along this area and that the base plate is supported when the standing surface is supported the stand base is inclined downwards from the front edge to the rear edge.
  • the goods standing on the respective storey floor are fully visible down to their stand area.
  • the inclination of the floor backwards and downwards ensures that the goods tend to tilt backwards and find a stable system on the rear wall.
  • the storey floors can be stacked in a space-saving manner, since two storey floors which are placed one above the other each result in an essentially cuboid structure.
  • Allowing the bottom edges of the wedge-shaped side walls to run horizontally is particularly recommended for optical reasons, but also has the technical advantage that it is possible to check that the shelves are properly constructed.
  • the upper edge of a side wall when the standing surface rests on the base, runs essentially in a straight line from the level of the base plate in the area of its front edge to the upper edge of the rear wall. This ensures optimal visibility in the front area and optimal stability of the goods on display in the rear area, the latter being transferred frictionally to the front objects again.
  • the standing surface be formed by the lower edges of the side walls and, if appropriate, by the lower edge of the front wall and / or the rear edge of the base plate of the lowest floor.
  • the front edge can have fastening means for an advertising medium, wherein these fastening means can be designed as an upwardly open interchangeable frame for the insertion of the advertising medium.
  • the shelves can have an essentially rectangular outline. In general, it is recommended - and this applies in particular to floors with a rectangular outline - that the floors are connected to each other by a total of four spacers, two of which are located near the front wall and two more near the rear wall.
  • two double sockets for receiving the lower end of an upper spacer and the upper end of a lower spacer are attached to the outside of the side walls.
  • the double frames each extend over the height of the side wall at the respective location of the side walls.
  • the double sockets are designed as socket tubes, each of which has a central wall in the upper and lower socket bags are divided.
  • the middle walls of the front and rear mounting tubes are each in a common horizontal plane when the standing surface rests on the stand floor.
  • the spacer supports and the double frames are each polygonal in cross section and that a boundary wall of a double frame near the side wall lies in the associated side wall plane.
  • Particularly favorable cleaning options are obtained if the spacer supports and the double frames each have an isosceles trapezoidal cross section and if two of the boundary walls of the double frames are parallel to the respective side wall, while two more diverge towards the outside of the respective side wall. Blind spots that are difficult to clean are then completely avoided.
  • the double frames on one side wall and the double frames on the other side wall are offset in pairs in the longitudinal direction of the side walls are.
  • Fig. 1 three floors 10 can be seen, which are connected to each other by four spacers 12 at a distance.
  • the bottom floor 10 serves as a base.
  • Each floor 10 comprises a base plate 14 which, as can be seen in FIG. 3, is inclined from the front and top to the back and back.
  • a front wall 18 adjoins at the bottom, which is made in one piece with an interchangeable frame 20 for inserting an advertising medium.
  • a rear wall 22 adjoins the rear edge 21 of the base plate 14 at the top.
  • the side walls 24, 24 ' are - as can be seen from Fig. 1 - wedge-shaped with a lower edge 26 and an upper edge 28.
  • the lower edge 26 lies horizontally in the erected state of the office tower and forms part of the standing area.
  • the upper edge 28 runs from the front edge 16 of the base plate 14 to the upper edge 30 of the rear wall 22.
  • double-socket versions 32, 34 are integrally attached, the have different heights corresponding to the height of the side walls 24 at the respective attachment point.
  • the mounting tubes 32 and 34 are trapezoidal in cross-section with boundary walls 32a, 34a, 32b, 34b that are parallel to one another and boundary walls 32c, 34c, 32d, 34d that diverge from the side wall 24.
  • the boundary walls 32b, 34b are parts of the side walls 24.
  • the spacer supports 12 are corresponding trapezoidal hollow profiles.
  • the socket tubes are divided into upper and lower socket pockets 32 I, 34 I or 32 II and 34 II by middle walls 32e, 34e.
  • Each of these holder pockets receives one end of an upper or lower spacer 12. It can be seen that the middle walls 32e and 34e are at the same height. This results in different heights of the holder pockets. On the other hand, all spacer supports 12 can be of the same length, which considerably simplifies assembly.
  • Fig. 5 shows that the socket tubes 32, 34 on one side wall 24 relative to the socket tubes 32 ', 34' on the other side wall 24 'are offset in pairs in the longitudinal direction of the respective side wall, so that a position of two adjacent floor towers according to Fig 5 is possible, in which their adjacent side walls 24, 24 'have a minimum distance and the front edges 16 are aligned.
  • FIG. 2 shows a stiffening rib 36 on the underside 80 of the base plate 14.
  • the position of this stiffening rib 36 is such that it engages both ends of one of the socket tubes 32 and 32 'despite the displacement of the socket tubes 32 and 32'.
  • FIG. 2 shows node elements 38 which stiffen the front wall 18 in relation to the base plate 14.
  • the rear wall 22 is stiffened by a flange 40.
  • the shelves 10 can be cast or injection-molded in one piece from thermoplastic material.
  • the thermoplastic material can be opaque or preferably transparent.
  • stiffening ribs 36 which stiffen the base plate 14 and the front wall 18, can be provided, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, extending in the depth direction of the shelf.
