Definitions

  • the present descriptive report refers to a patent application for a display that, after mounted, it gains the pattern of a trapezoidal box, then proposing the coupling of various units to form a communication arch placed in the corridor or supermarkets, shopping centers and big magazines, attached between one shelf and another. In its highest semi-circular part, this communication arch receives a large media that will be seen by the consumers that pass through the corridors.
  • the displays are not usually designed to display products at great height, being generally supported on the floor together wit the shelves, attached to columns or on floors, totems and other types of points to carry the messages.
  • a cardboard paper will have the shape of a display box with slight reduction of width from the top to the bottom, with trapezoidal geometry, having adjustable flaps on the sides and corresponding cutouts on the opposite side.
  • the units of these display boxes will be mounted to one another with the insertion of the flaps of one unit in the cutouts of the subsequent unit.
  • the assembly obtains an arched shape, self-supported, but through the adjacent edges of their bottoms strongly brought together, supporting the pressure from the top to the bottom without requiring any additional support, able to receive a large media and positioned at a high height between the shelves, carrying a strong advertising/informative appeal.
  • the "TRAPEZOIDAL DISPLAY BOX WITH CUTTING AND CREASING DESIGN AND MOUNTING SYSTEM FOR FORMATION OF COMMUNICATION ARCH WITH AUTOMATIC ADJUSTMENT AND STRUCTURING” consists of, as shown in figure 1 , based on a cutting and creasing design for cardboard, comprising a mounting base (1) delimited by side creases (2) and (3) of which there are respective cutouts (2) with arrow ends (5) at creases (2).
  • creases (3) From one of the creases (3), it extends to the bottom (6), delimited by side creases (7) hollowed by a set of male coupling (8) consisting of the cutout (9) of angled extremities (10) and including a flap (11) with male locking tab (8a).
  • Said bottom (6) has a crease (12) positioned opposite crease (3), from where the side face (13) extends, delimited by its side creases (14) equally equipped with male couplings (8), and the crease (15) opposite the crease (12) also receives a pair of male couplings (8), but in alignment and in a cross-sectional position.
  • the top (16) From the crease (3) opposite the base (1), it extends to the top (16), delimited by its side creases (17) also equipped with male couplings (8), and this top (16) is hollowed by the center cutout (18) delimiting the semi-circle flap (19), in addition to receiving a crease (21) on the free edge (20) for the female coupling (22) consisting of a reentrant flap (23) for cutouts (24) and incorporating a locking tab (25) with crease (26), interrupted by rectangular center cutout opposite a semicircular cutout forming the female cutout (22a).
  • the front faces (27) extend with the free edges equipped with their female couplings (22). These front faces (27) protrude, from their peripheral edge (28), an angled coupling flap (29), defined by a coupling end (30) with supporting part (31) of smaller height. On the opposite side, this angled coupling flap (29) forms a stop (32) with displacement part (33) of greater height.
  • the coupling flap (29) also receives a reinforcement glue (34) on its inner side.
  • the bottom (6) and the top (16) are positioned on the vertical, as shown in figure 3 , folding through the crease (12) the side face (13) and then folding its crease (15) to align the cutouts (9) to the flap (23) with the extremities of its locking tab (25) folded to insert into the angled terminal (10), as shown in detail A of figure 4 .
  • the male locking tab (8a) of the male coupling (8) is folded and inserted in the female cutout (22a) of the female coupling (22) of the top (16), as shown in detail B of figure 5 .
  • the trapezoidal display box (35) is formed with wider top (16), suffering gradual reduction in the perimeter to the bottom (6).
  • the top (16) is turned upward and the bottom (6) downward, as shown in figure 14 , in order to be used in various units coupled together, in a new mounting system for an assembly through which a communication arch (A) is formed.
  • the coupling flaps (29) of a unit has the coupling ends (30) folded and, after this unit (35) is handled in slight angulation, the stop (32) is surpassed and inserted in the arrows (5) of the cutouts (4) of the subsequent unit (35).
  • the assembler must insert his hand through the cutout (18), as shown by the arrow tracking the sequence of figure 18 of this subsequent box (35) and, internally unfold the coupling ends (30) that, when opened, lock one unit to another and so on successively, as shown in figure 19 , forming an assembly of predefined extension for the installation site.
  • the assembly is raised through its central part, as shown by the arrow of the sequence of figure 20 , when the displacement parts (33) of greater height of the coupling flaps (29) slide through its displacement parts (33) through the cutouts (4) of the subsequent displays (35) in a course delimited by the open coupling ends (30), simultaneously forcing the bottoms to meet (6).
  • the coupling flaps (29) combined with the trapezoidal geometry of the display boxes (35), an adjustment movement is provided for spacing between the tops (16), in automatic radial position, while the bottoms (6) meet providing structuring, supporting the resulting stress imposed vertically from top to bottom, for the formation of the arch.
  • Figure 21 shows the communication arch in lines and rendered.
  • the assembly can be supported by its peripheral display box (35) units, between two opposite shelves (G) in a supermarket corridor for example.
  • the communication arch (A) formed receives the fixation of a large media (M), which is maintained well above the corridor, calling the attention of consumers.
