Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the technical field of support, selection or presentation of flat articles or documents of a more less flexible or flexible, such as leaflets, sheets, leaflets, brochures, booklets, prints, etc.
  • the object of the invention relates more precisely to the supports comprising at minus a clamp adapted to keep the documents in a stable position.
  • a housing comprising a base from which rises a bottom panel and a facade panel interconnected by side walls.
  • the housing is open from above to allow the insertion and taking of documents based by their edge on the base.
  • This type of support has a major drawback related to the relative freedom of orientation that the documents have inside the case.
  • the documents can take biased directions or sag as they go measurement of document collection, which hinders the presentation of documents and causes their deterioration.
  • patent EP 0 466 697 has proposed a support for documents comprising a bottom panel rising from a base serving as support for the edge of the documents.
  • This support also includes a clamp extending from the base in a curved orientation directed towards an opening in the bottom panel.
  • This clamp has an elastic tension adapted to allow retaining various thicknesses of documents.
  • the elastic tension of the clamp also produces in documents, a concave curvature directed over a limited width, on either side of their vertical median, extending from top to bottom of the documents.
  • the curvature of the documents gives them a self-supporting structure making it possible to avoid the problems of sagging and winding of the documents.
  • the object of the invention therefore aims to remedy the drawbacks mentioned above by proposing a support for documents in the general sense, designed for maintain a stable position over time regardless of the amount of documents remaining, while providing a neat presentation of documents.
  • Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing a first embodiment of a support for documents according to the invention.
  • Fig. 2 is a sectional elevation view taken substantially along lines II-II of FIG. 1.
  • Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken substantially along lines III-III of FIG. 2.
  • Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view illustrating another alternative embodiment of a support according to the invention.
  • Fig. 5 is a section showing a characteristic detail of the invention.
  • Fig. 6 is a perspective view showing another embodiment of a support according to the invention.
  • Fig. 7 is a front view of another alternative embodiment of a support according to the invention.
  • Fig. 8 is a side view taken substantially along lines VIII-VIII of FIG. 7.
  • the subject of the invention relates to a support or a display 1 intended to ensure the maintenance in a stable position, of documents 2 in the general sense, such as printed matter, sheets, sheets, booklets, brochures, leaflets or the like .
  • the support 1 comprises a base 3 intended to serve as a support for the lower edge of the documents 2 .
  • the base 3 is mounted on a base 4 constituted by two feet 5 , a detailed description of which will be given later.
  • the support 1 comprises a bottom 6 constituted, in the example illustrated, by a central support 7 for the back of the documents 2 .
  • the central support 7 extends projecting between two lateral clearances 8 being established on either side of the support 7 .
  • the central support 7 rises from the base 3 , in a substantially perpendicular direction.
  • the central support 7 constitutes a rib having a curved cross section.
  • the rib 7 has a profile forming a localized support for the back of the documents.
  • the rib 7 may have a profile with a larger radius of curvature, adapted to allow support for the documents, not located, but extending over part of the width of the documents.
  • the profile of the support 7 may have a curvature substantially identical to that of the documents 2, shown in phantom in FIG. 3.
  • the support 7 may consist of several juxtaposed ribs, the extreme ribs delimiting towards the outside, the lateral clearances 8 .
  • the support 7 is located, in the examples illustrated, to allow the support of the documents substantially in their plane of vertical symmetry.
  • the support 7 is not necessarily located to allow the centered support of the documents, but is adapted to act in the central region of the documents which can extend over most of their width.
  • the central support 7 preferably has a free end 9 having a curved profile towards the bottom 6 and whose function will appear more clearly in the following description.
  • the support 1 also comprises at least one clamp 11 having a substantially uniform thickness and extending from the base 3 with a profile 12 curved outwards and upwards, extended by a flat section 13 directed upwards and towards the bottom 6.
  • the clamp 11 thus constitutes the front of the support.
  • the clamp 11 defines with the bottom 6 , an open cavity 14 for receiving documents 2 which are subject to the elastic tension developed by the clamp forming a spring.
  • the clamp 11 is provided with two lateral pressure elements 15 extending in the absence of documents 2 , each inside a lateral clearance 8.
  • each lateral pressure element 15 is formed by means of a fin extending perpendicularly to the clamp 11 .
  • the fins 15 are shaped so that their upper edges 15 1 are inclined downward from the back of the clamp 11 to facilitate the introduction of documents inside the receiving cavity 14 . as shown more clearly in fig. 3, the free ends of the pressure elements 15 extend in the recesses 8 beyond the vertical plane P tangent to the central support 7.
  • the distance l between the vertical plane P tangent to the central support 7 and the plane P 1 passing through the ends of the pressure elements 15, is chosen to generate a radius of curvature adapted to ensure the stability of the documents. This distance can usually be of the order of 5 to 10 mm.
  • Such an arrangement makes it possible to ensure on the documents 2 two pressure points situated laterally with respect to the central zone of the documents abutted by their backs on the central support 7 . It follows that the documents 2 are folded with a convex curvature extending from top to bottom of the documents and directed from one vertical edge to the other of the documents. Relative to the clamp 11 or to the support front, the vertical edges of the documents are thrown back in consideration of the central part of the documents.
  • the curvature of the documents 2 gives them a self-supporting structure excluding the problems of winding or sagging of the documents.
  • a convex curvature makes it possible to avoid a forward bending of the upper corners of the documents and, as a result, localized folds detrimental to reading and presentation aesthetics.
  • the central support 7 extends over a length much greater than the pressure elements 15 which are of a point or almost localized nature.
  • the pressure elements 15 must be located on either side of the central support 7 , extending substantially along the same level.
  • the support 1 comprises a bottom 6 materialized by a panel or a wall 18 from which projects, the central support 7 (fig. 4).
  • the pressure elements 15 ensure that the vertical edges of the documents 2 are pressed against the bottom panel 18 .
  • the vertical edges of the documents 2 are thus pressed over their entire height against the bottom panel 18 , even when pressure elements of a punctual nature are used. Due to the convex curvature of the documents 2 and the support of the lateral edges over their entire height, this results in a stable maintenance of the documents over time and a perfect presentation, whatever the number of documents remaining.
  • the support 1 is made of an injected plastic material using a single translation mold making it possible to obtain respectively front and bottom walls, located in offset planes.
  • the clamp 11 and the central support 7 extend from the base 3 to form a single piece.
  • the clamp 11 has a central opening 20 whose profile corresponds to that of the support 7 . More specifically, the width of the opening 20 is greater than the width of the central support 7 , while the height of the opening 20 is substantially greater than the height of the central support 7 .
  • the opening 20 thus delimits on either side, two arms 21 each corresponding to a lateral clearance 8 .
  • the two arms 21 are connected to each other at their top by a connection part 22 which is established above the central support 7 and makes it possible to produce a single clamp 11. It should be noted that the arms 21 can be independent of each other, so that the support 1 comprises two clamps each formed by an arm 21 provided with a lateral pressure element 15.
  • the clamp 11 defines, between its connection part 22 and the upper end 9 of the central support 7 , a window or an opening 23 for introducing documents 2 .
  • the curved or rounded profile of the top of the central support 7 possibly combined with the upper edges 15 1 of the pressure elements, facilitate the introduction of the documents 2 inside the receiving cavity 14.
  • the support 1 is supported by a base 4 intended to rest on a horizontal support plane S.
  • the base 4 is made up, as is shown more precisely in FIGS. 1 and 5, by two feet 5, for example of removable nature, each provided with two notches 25 each arranged in a wing 5 1 extending from the core of the foot.
  • the notches 25 of each foot 5 are intended to cooperate with a pair of notches 26, 26 1 arranged on the bottom wall 18 (fig. 5) or on a fallen return 27 extending from the base 3 ( fig. 1).
  • the notches 26, 26 1 are formed one with respect to the other and with respect to the edges of the support 1 , so as to allow an assembly of at least two supports 1 mounted side by side .
  • the distance l 1 between the notch closest to the edge 1 1 namely that 26 1 and the edge l 1
  • the distance l 1 between the notch closest to the edge 1 1 is equal to half the distance l 2 separating the two notches 26, 26 1 of the same pair.
  • Such a characteristic allows the adjoining assembly of several similar supports 1 by mounting a foot 5 straddling two supports 1, coming to engage by its notches 25 in the notches 26 1 of the supports, placed closest to the edges 1 1 . It should be noted that the material remaining between the two notches 26, 26 1 of the same pair can be eliminated, making it possible to obtain a single notch of larger dimension.
  • the support 1 can be mounted on a base 4 of different structure from that described above.
  • the support 1 can be equipped with fixing means on a wall support or on a bottom panel 18 intended to be mounted on a wall support.
  • the bottom panel 18, or even the support can be provided with lateral walls extending perpendicular to the bottom 6, so as to serve as a lateral stop for the documents 2 .
  • the support 1 can have different possible forms while assuming the functions described above.
  • provision may be made to make a support 1 comprising a single clamp 11 having a solid surface while being produced by an injection technique.
  • the support 1 comprises a bottom panel 18 from which extends a central support 7 constituted by a rib.
  • the bottom panel 18 has a main opening 30 arranged to allow the lateral clearances 8 to remain on either side of the lower end of the support 7 .
  • the main opening 30 associated with the openings 8 defines an open U-shaped section corresponding to the profile of the clamp 11 which extends from the bottom panel 18 from the base of the opening 30.
  • the clamp 11 has two pressure elements 15 placed in correspondence with the lateral clearances 8 .
  • the pressure elements 15 may be constituted by added elements or by a suitable curvature of the clamp, namely convex. It should be noted that the convex shape given to the clamp 11 makes it possible to increase the dimensions of the window 23 for introducing the documents.
  • the support 1 comprises, on either side, side walls 37 ensuring the abutment of the documents 2 by their vertical edges.
  • the bottom panel 18 and / or the side walls 37 can be provided with means 38 ensuring the fixing of the display stand on a vertical support or its assembly with one or more identical supports 1 mounted adjacent.
  • the support 1 according to the invention is made of an injected plastic.
  • the support 1 according to the invention namely the clamp (s) 11 , the bottom panel 18 and the central support 7
  • the support 1 can be manufactured by a different technique for example, by folding.
  • the support 1 comprises a single clamp 11 having a base 3 intended to be fixed on a bottom panel 18.
  • the bottom panel 18 is equipped with a central support 7 delimiting, on either side, lateral clearances 8 , in each of which is intended to come a lateral pressure element 15 carried by the clamp.
  • the pressure elements 15 may be constituted by fins added or formed by bending from the clamp or by a projecting imprint formed, for example, by stamping.
  • the central support 7 extends over a limited height relative to the height of the document. Such an arrangement is sufficient to impart a convex curvature to the document.
  • the clamp 11 has a substantially straight free end 22 . Provision may be made at this end for a cutout 40 of triangular shape shown diagrammatically in phantom in FIG. 7, making it possible to accentuate the window for introducing documents 23 . In the same direction, provision may be made to give the clamp 11 a convex profile to facilitate the introduction of documents between the clamp and the central support 7 .
  • the support 1 according to the invention is preferably made of a transparent plastic material, so that the clamp (s) 11 do not hide the documents.
  • provision may be made to attach to the clamp 11 and, in particular, between the arms 21, a part intended to receive a message of an advertising nature or not.
  • the support according to the invention makes it possible to present any document to flat character in a stable position does not affect their integrity whatever the number of documents remaining in the medium.
