The present invention relates to a display container that can be used as a display container.

(Prior art) Japanese Patent Publication No. 39-5142 discloses that a floor plate, a pair of front and rear end walls, and a pair of left and right side walls constitute a container in which only the upper surface is open. A telescoping type container is shown in which a support shelf is provided for stacking containers, and a slanted gutter-shaped portion is formed protruding from the outer surface of the side wall into which another container can be dropped.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) However, according to this conventional configuration, the bottom and four sides of the container are each closed by plate-like members, so when multiple containers are stacked and used, each container is There was a problem in that it was difficult to visually recognize the stored items from the outside, making them unsuitable as containers for displaying products and the like. In addition, the plurality of slanted gutter-shaped parts protruding from the outer surface of the side wall not only caused difficulties in resin molding, but also caused an inconvenience in terms of appearance when used for displaying products. . Furthermore,
Containers could only be stacked upwards, and the mutual arrangement of the containers could not be changed.

Structure of the device (Means for solving the problem) This device was created by focusing on the problems mentioned above. a side wall consisting of a pair of upper frames that are open outward and a plurality of vertical beams fixed between the inner surface of the upper frame and the outer surface of the side frame of the bottom wall;
constitutes a square box-shaped container frame with an open top and front surface, and the front ends of the both side walls are provided with engaging portions that engage with the top surfaces of the both side walls of another container frame having the same configuration as the above. A positioning portion that can be selectively engaged with the upper end of each of the vertical bars of another container frame is provided on the lower surface of the front end of the bottom wall.

(Function) When using the display container of this invention,
A plurality of container frames are stacked by engagement between the engaging portion of the upper container frame and the upper surface of the side wall of the lower container frame, and by engagement between the lower surface of the upper container frame and the upper surface of the rear wall of the lower container frame. is,
In this state, the stored articles can be easily viewed from any direction through the bottom wall, rear wall, and side walls, which each form a lattice shape. In addition, when not in use, if the upper container frame is moved forward to disengage the engaging portion from the upper surface of the side wall of the lower container frame, at the same time, the lower surface of the upper container frame and the lower container The frame is also disengaged from the upper surface of the rear wall, and the upper container frame is stacked within the lower container frame. Furthermore, in the above-mentioned stacked state, by selectively engaging the positioning portion with the upper end of each vertical bar protruding from the inner surface of the upper frame, the upper container can be prevented from shifting backward relative to the lower container. It becomes an array.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example that embodies this invention will be described based on the drawings.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 6, the frame 1 of the display container is constructed of a bottom wall 2, a rear wall 3, and a pair of left and right side walls 4 made of a synthetic resin material in the shape of a rectangular rectangular box with an open top and front surface. has been done. The bottom wall 2 is horizontal in cross section
It is formed in a lattice shape by a front frame having a letter-shaped cross section, a rear frame 6 and a pair of side frames 7 having a letter-shaped cross section, a plurality of horizontal bars 8 and a plurality of vertical bars 9 having a horizontal cross-section. An inclined surface 10 is provided on the upper surface of the front end to prevent stored articles from falling forward.
Both side walls 4 have an upper frame 12 and a front frame 1, each having a horizontal cross-section.
3. The rear frame 14 and the plurality of vertical bars 15 are each configured in a lattice shape. The rear wall 3 is formed in a lattice shape by a horizontal frame 16 having a square cross section lower than the upper frame 12 and a plurality of vertical bars 17.

The front frame 13 of the side wall 4 is provided with an engaging portion 18 that has the same width as the upper frame 12 and protrudes outward.
As shown in FIG. 10, its lower end surface is similar to the upper frame 12 of another container frame 1 having the same configuration as above.
It is adapted to slidably engage the upper surface of the. Further, upper protrusions 19 are formed at both left and right ends of the horizontal frame 16 of the rear wall 3, and as shown in FIG. 10, the lower surface of the side frame 7 of the other container frame 1 can slide against the upper surface thereof. is engaged with. Then, as shown in FIG. 7, a plurality of container frames 1 having the same configuration are stacked up by the engagement of the respective parts described above, and in this state, each container frame 1 is stacked by sliding the upper container frame 1. The relative position in the front-back direction can be changed.

Each vertical beam 15 of the side wall 4 has its upper end connected to the upper frame 1.
2, and the lower end is fixed to the outer surface of the side frame 7, so that each side frame 7 is formed into a diagonal shape that opens slightly upward. Further, the inner surfaces of the front frame 13 and the rear frame 14 are sloped surfaces that open upward like the vertical frame 15, and the upper ends of each vertical frame 17 of the rear wall 3 are fixed to the inner surface of the horizontal frame 16. The lower end thereof is fixed to the upper surface of the rear frame 6, and is formed into an oblique shape with a gentle upward opening. And with these configurations,
The upper ends of each side wall 4 and rear wall 3 open outward, and the upper container frame 1 is in a stacked state.
As the upper frame 1 slides forward, the engaging portion 18 and the upper frame 1
2 is released, and at the same time, the side frame 7
When the engagement with the upper protrusion 19 is released, the upper container frame 1 is accommodated in the lower container frame 1 and stacked, as shown in FIG.

Furthermore, in the display container of this example,
As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, a positioning part 20 is formed projecting from the lower surface of the front frame 5 so as to extend from side to side, and in the stacked state described above, the positioning part 20 projects from the inner surface of the upper frame 12. Each standing pier 1
5 selectively engages with the upper end of each container frame 1 to regulate the relative position of each container frame 1.
Therefore, as shown in FIG. 7, for example, when the positioning portion 20 and the foremost standing bar 15 are engaged, the front end portions of each container frame 1 are aligned in a step-like manner, which is preferable in appearance as a display container. Not only can an arrangement form be obtained, but also the backward movement of the upper container frame 1 can be restricted in this state.

Further, as shown in FIG. 11, regulating portions 21 are protruded from both left and right ends of the rear frame 6 on the bottom wall 2, and the engagement between the engaging portion 18 and the upper frame 12 is released in the stacked state. Immediately before the upper container frame 1 is moved, it engages from the rear with the upper protrusion 19 of the lower container frame 1 to prevent the upper container frame 1 from falling off as it moves forward. In addition, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 12, protrusions 22 extending back and forth are provided on both left and right sides of the lower surface of the bottom wall 2, and locking portions 2 are cut out at the front ends of the protrusions 22.
3 engages from the rear with the front frame 5 of the other container frame 1 in the stacked state, and prevents the upper container frame 1 from moving forward, thereby preventing a large number of stacked container frames from moving forward. 1 can be stored in a compact storage format.

Note that this invention is not limited to the configuration of the above-mentioned embodiment, but can be made more concrete by arbitrarily changing the shape of each part, for example, configuring each wall 2 to 4 in a triangular, rhombic, or circular lattice shape. It is also possible to convert

Effects of the Device As detailed above, this device connects multiple container frames through engagement between the lower surface of the engaging portion protruding outward from the front end of the side wall and the upper surface of the side wall of another container frame. It is possible to stack multiple types of products, etc. in each container frame and store them in an orderly manner, and the stored items can be easily viewed from the outside through the bottom wall, rear wall, and side walls that form a lattice shape. Moreover, when the engagement between the engaging portion and the upper surface of the side wall is released, the engagement of the rear end of each container frame is also released at the same time, and the upper container frame is stacked within the lower container frame. Since each container frame is stored in a compact form, it is very convenient in practice as a display container.

In addition, according to this invention, the means for stacking and stacking the container frames is extremely simple, consisting only of the above-mentioned engaging portions, so that molding is easier than in the conventional method described above. Not only that, but also a shape suitable for a display container with a clean appearance can be obtained.

Moreover, in this invention, by providing the containers with a positioning part, it is possible to shift the upper container backwards with respect to the lower container when stacked, so the upper and lower containers can be moved directly above each other if necessary. They can be stacked or staggered.
Further, since the positioning portion is engaged using the vertical beams forming the side wall, the configuration thereof becomes simple.

In addition, some stored products may require ventilation; for example, when frozen foods are stored in the container, they are stored in multiple tiers in the freezer, removed as needed, and displayed as they are. It can also be served.
