Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method of hanging an information carrier in front of the front of a shelf, in which a label holder for labels with price and merchandise information being mounted on the shelf front, which label holder comprises a rear mounting part and a front, fold-up part with an upwardly open pocket arranged on the rear side for receiving labels.
  • the invention also relates to an information carrier adapted so as to be capable of being hung by applying this method.
  • information carrier means generally a carrier for various types of display material for merchandise, including holders for presentation of the merchandise itself.
  • WO 87/003277 describes a label holder system which, in addition to ordinary price information, also allows the display of additional sales promotion price particulars.
  • the extra label holders are not securely fixed and can be detached unintentionally by lifting.
  • One object of the present invention is to provide a method for hanging an extra information carrier in front of the front of a shelf, on which a label holder for labels with merchandise information is mounted, which method allows the information carrier to be mounted very easily but nevertheless securely and in such a way that they are easy to remove when, for example, they are to be moved to another place.
  • Another object is to produce an information carrier which can be mounted by applying the method.
  • the invention is based on the knowledge that there are systems on the market for label holders for labels with price and merchandise information which can also be used for simple hanging of additional information sheets or holders for such sheets or for merchandise.
  • Such a label holder system is described in our Swedish patent no. 0001295-5 and comprises a holder for labels with price and merchandise information intended to be mounted on a shelf front, which label holder comprises a rear mounting part and a front, fold-up part with an upwardly open pocket arranged on the rear side for receiving labels.
  • this pocket is used for hanging information carriers, which can then appear together with the normal merchandise labels without concealing the information on these.
  • a method of the kind indicated in the first paragraph is in this connection characterized in particular in that the information carrier is hung on the rear side of the fold-up part of the label holder by being hooked firmly in the upwardly open pocket thereof, so that a lower part of the information carrier, which bears the desired information, for example in the form of an inscription and/or a holder for pieces of paper to be taken away, projects down below the label holder, and an upper part thereof projects up into the space between the rear mounting part of the label holder and its fold-up part, essentially to a hinge which connects the mounting part and the fold-up front of the label holder, so that, in the folded-down position of the fold-up front, the upper part of the information carrier is fixed between the fold-up part and the mounting part and cannot be unhooked as long as the front part is folded down.
  • an information carrier can be hung very easily but nevertheless securely, as it will be clamped firmly and fixed in the desired position when the front part of the label holder is folded down. It will not conceal the ordinary merchandise labels either.
  • the information carrier is made with a transverse slot of essentially the same width as the label holder on which it is intended to be mounted, and the information carrier is hung on the label holder by virtue of an upper free edge of the rear wall of the pocket on the rear side of the fold-up part of the label holder being inserted into this slot. This means that the information carrier cannot be displaced in the lateral direction in relation to the label holder, which further prevents unintentional removal of the information carrier.
  • Pig. 1 shows the profile of a known label holder with a swing-up front part .
  • Fig. 2 shows the holder according to Fig. 1 with the front part in the folded-up position.
  • Fig. 3 shows the label holder according to Fig. 1 mounted on a profiled carrier strip affixed to the front of a shelf.
  • Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the shelf front with a label holder according to Fig. 3 mounted.
  • Fig. 5 shows an embodiment of an information carrier according to the present invention.
  • Figs 6 and 7 illustrate how an information carrier according to Fig. 5 can be mounted on a label holder according to Fig. 4.
  • Fig. 8 is a perspective view of an information carrier mounted according to Fig. 7.
  • Figs 9 and 10 correspond to Fig. 8 but show the hanging of other types of information carrier or, respectively, merchandise carrier.
  • Figs 1 and 2 show a label holder 1 according to our abovementioned Swedish patent no. 0001295-5, which comprises a rear mounting part 2 and a front, fold-up part 3 with a pocket 4, open upward and to the sides, arranged on the rear side for receiving merchandise labels (not shown) .
  • the fold-up part 3 is made in one piece with the mounting part 2 and is connected to the latter via a part 5 serving as a hinge.
  • the mounting part 2 and the swing-up part 3 have a profile with essentially the same curvature.
  • the pocket 4 on the rear side of the swing-up part of the label holder is intended to receive labels with prices and other information relating to the merchandise on the shelf. Owing to the fact that the swing-up part 3 is transparent, these labels can be read from the front.
  • Fig. 3 shows the label holder according to Figs 1 and 2 mounted on a shelf 6, which is in this case made from a bent metal sheet with a shelf front edge 7.
  • a profiled carrier strip 8 Arranged on the shelf front edge is a profiled carrier strip 8 which extends over the entire length of the shelf 6 and itself has a front part with the same curvature as the front and rear parts of the label holder. All the profiled strips are suitably made from an extruded PVC material .
  • the profiled carrier strip 8 extends along the front edge 7 of the whole shelf 6, while shorter label holders 1 with swing-up front parts 3 can be positioned in desired places along the shelf front edge by being snapped firmly on the profiled carrier strip 8, as can be seen from Fig. 3.
  • Fig. 5 illustrates an embodiment of an information carrier 9, which can be provided with a sales message which it is for the time being desirable to link together with a certain product.
  • the information carrier according to Fig. 5 has a slot 10 with a width essentially corresponding to the length of the pocket 4 formed on the rear side of the swing-up part 3 of a label holder.
  • the upper part 11 of the information carrier 9 has a curvature corresponding to the curvature of the interacting parts 2, 3 of the label holder.
  • Reference number 12 designates an opening in the information carrier, the purpose of which will be indicated below.
  • the width of the information carrier should be slightly greater than the width of the label holder.
  • Fig. 6 shows how an information carrier 9 has been hooked firmly in the pocket 4 on the rear side of the swing-up front part 3 of the label holder by the rear wall of the pocket 4 having been guided through the slot 10 of the information carrier 10.
  • the slot 10 is positioned on the information carrier 9 in such a way that that part 11 of the latter located above the slot extends essentially right up to the hinge portion 5 of the label holder.
  • the ordinary information on merchandise labels in the pocket of the label holder on the rear side of the front 3 will still be readable from the front, as the information carrier 9 extends up on the rear side of these labels.
  • the lower part of the information carrier 9 projects below the label holder and can be provided with the desired additional information, for example a temporary purchase offer.
  • Fig. 9 shows the invention applied for mounting a holder 12 for leaflets intended to be taken away by the customer.
  • a holder with leaflets has a greater weight than a simple information carrier according to Fig. 5, the curvature of the upper portion 13 of the rear wall of the holder can be brought about in an alternative way.
  • the curvature of the portion 11 is suitably brought about by hot bending.
  • the upper portion 13 can be made entirely plane but be provided with transverse folding lines 14.
  • the upper portion 13 will automatically adapt to the curvature of the mounting profile 8 owing to the weight of the holder 12.
  • Fig. 10 shows a corresponding embodiment, where the information carrier 15, the upper part 13 of which is provided with folding lines 14, is made with means 16, for example in the form of hook-shaped slots, in which the desired articles, such as merchandise intended for sale, can be firmly hooked.
  • the information carriers 12 and 15 according to Figs 9 and 10 can also be mounted in any position along a shelf by being hooked firmly on a label holder in the same simple manner as described in connection with the information carrier according to Fig. 5. Access to the merchandise labels in the pocket 4 for any adjustment of their positions is possible via the opening 12 indicated above in the upper part of the information carrier 9. Corresponding openings can also be present in the information carriers 12 and 15.
  • the shape and type of information carrier are concerned, these can be varied in a great many respects while retaining the mounting principle described above.
  • the detailed embodiment of the mounting pocket or mounting slot used can be varied in various respects.
  • other types of hooking means can be used for interaction with the label holder pocket on the rear side of the swing-up front part of the label holder.
