Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a display member. [Background technology]

[0002] A paper display is known that has a fixed part that holds a display part that displays information, and a display panel angle change mechanism that changes the angle of the display part (Patent Document 1). The fixed part is formed in an inverted U-shape so that it can be hung on the front fence of a product display shelf. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] JP 2010-243701 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, the above-mentioned paper display body is limited to one attachment method of hanging the fixing part on the front fence, and therefore cannot be attached to a product display shelf that does not have a front fence. In other words, the above-mentioned paper display body has a problem that it cannot be attached in various ways and is lacking in versatility and practicality.

[0005] In consideration of the above circumstances, the present invention provides an indication member that can be attached in a variety of ways. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The present invention is a display member that is attached to a display shelf having a rail portion fixed to the front end of a shelf board, and comprises a display portion that displays information, a first support piece that faces the back surface of the display portion, and a second support piece that faces the back surface of the first support piece, and is attached to the display shelf in either one of a first form in which a lower portion of the first support piece fits into the rail portion and a lower portion of the second support piece is inserted into a shelf groove formed between the shelf board and the rail portion, and a second form in which a lower portion of the display portion engages with a lower portion of the rail portion and a lower portion of the first support piece and the second support piece are inserted into the shelf groove.

[0007] In this case, the second support piece may have an engaging portion cut out therein that engages with the rail portion, and may be attached to the display shelf in any one of the first form, the second form, and a third form in which the engaging portion is engaged with the rail portion.

[0008] In this case, the display shelf includes a detachably installed advertising rail, the advertising rail having an upright portion that is inserted into the shelf groove and erected, and a clamping portion that extends from the upper end of the upright portion to cover the rail portion and forms a double-wall structure capable of clamping an advertising sheet, and when the display shelf has the advertising rail attached, it is preferable that the display shelf is attached in a fourth form in which the first support piece is clamped in the clamping portion and the lower part of the second support piece is inserted into a rear groove formed in the lower part of the rear of the upright portion.

[0009] In this case, the display unit may have a display surface portion extending in the vertical direction and displaying information on the front side, a support surface portion folded back at the lower end of the display surface portion and facing the rear side of the display surface portion across a gap, an outer top surface portion bridged between the upper ends of the display surface portion and the second support piece, and an inner top surface portion bridged between the upper ends of the support surface portion and the first support piece and fixed to the lower surface of the outer top surface portion.

[0010] In this case, the display surface portion is formed to be able to hold an information sheet on which information is displayed, and the display surface portion is partitioned by an engagement rail fixed to the lower part of the display surface portion and engaging the lower end of the information sheet, a retention cutout cut so as to bulge from the boundary between the display surface portion and the outer top surface portion toward the display surface portion, and a curved fold line formed so as to bulge from the boundary toward the outer top surface portion, and further includes a retention piece cut from the display surface portion along the retention cutout and protruding forward from the outer top surface portion, engaging the upper end of the information sheet, and the retention piece is bent downward along the curved fold line and held in a position inclined downward toward the front from the outer top surface portion. Effect of the Invention

[0011] According to the present invention, the display member can be attached in a variety of ways. [Brief description of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0013] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the attached drawings. Note that Fr, Rr, L, R, U, and D shown in the drawings indicate front, rear, left, right, up, and down. The front-rear direction, left-right direction, and up-down direction are mutually perpendicular. Terms indicating directions and positions are used in this specification, but these terms are used for convenience of explanation and do not limit the technical scope of the present invention. In addition, the terms indicating directions and positions are based on the directions and positions when the display stand is in use.

[0014] The display member 1 according to this embodiment is attached to a display shelf 90 installed in a storefront, for example, in order to promote sales of a product (not shown) displayed (displayed) on the display shelf 90 (see FIG. 1). The display member 1 is detachable from the display shelf 90 as necessary. Product information (for example, characters, figures, etc. including the product name, price, etc.) is displayed on the front of the display member 1 (not shown).

[0015] [Display shelf] A display shelf 90 to which a display member 1 is attached will be described with reference to Figures 1 and 2. Figure 1 is a perspective view showing the display member 1 and a part of the display shelf 90. Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view (side view) showing a part of the display shelf 90.

[0016] 1 and 2, the display shelf 90 includes a shelf board 91 formed in a rectangular flat plate shape, and a rail portion 92 fixed to the front end of the shelf board 91. The shelf board 91 and the rail portion 92 are made of, for example, steel.

[0017] The shelf board 91 has a smooth upper surface, and products are placed (displayed) on the upper surface of the shelf board 91. A shelf groove 93 is formed between the shelf board 91 and the rail part 92. The shelf groove 93 is a small gap that is open at the top along the boundary between the shelf board 91 and the rail part 92. The rail part 92 is formed so that a price card (not shown) can be fitted into the front side. Specifically, the rail part 92 has a concave part 92A that curves forward from the upper end to the lower end, an upper rail groove 92U formed by bending the upper end of the concave part 92A downward, and a lower rail groove 92D formed by bending the lower end of the concave part 92A upward. The user bends the price card by squashing it in the vertical direction, and engages both the upper and lower ends of the price card with the upper rail groove 92U and the lower rail groove 92D. This causes the price card to be held by the rail part 92.

[0018] <Advertising rail> 2, the display shelf 90 includes a detachable advertising rail 94. The advertising rail 94 is attached to the front end of the shelf board 91 when an advertising sheet 98 such as a POP (point of purchase) advertisement is displayed, and is detached from the front end of the shelf board 91 when the advertising sheet 98 is not displayed. By attaching the advertising rail 94 to the front end of the shelf board 91, the advertising rail 94 also functions as a front fence that prevents products from falling off the shelf board 91.

[0019] The advertising rail 94 has a standing portion 95 inserted into the shelf groove 93 and standing upright, and a clamping portion 96 extending from the upper end of the standing portion 95 so as to cover the rail portion 92. The advertising rail 94 is integrally formed of a transparent synthetic resin that is elastically deformable. The standing portion 95 is formed in a substantially rectangular plate shape, and the lower end of the standing portion 95 is fitted into the shelf groove 93. A rear groove 97 that is open at the top is formed at the lower back surface of the standing portion 95. The clamping portion 96 has a double-wall structure that can clamp an advertising sheet 98. Specifically, the clamping portion 96 has a double-wall structure that extends downward from the upper end of the standing portion 95, then folds back at the lower end and extends upward.

[0020] [Display material blank] Next, the blank 1A of the display member 1 will be described with reference to Fig. 3. Fig. 3 is a plan view showing the blank 1A of the display member 1.

[0021] The display member 1 is assembled from a blank 1A shown in Fig. 3. The blank 1A is formed by punching out a sheet of paperboard using a die or the like. The paperboard is, for example, a multi-layered thick paperboard with a surface coating. Note that Fig. 3 shows the front (outer) side of the display member 1. In this specification, the direction parallel to the grain is referred to as the "grain direction", and the direction perpendicular to the grain direction is referred to as the "orthogonal direction". In the drawings, "X" indicates the "grain direction" and "Y" indicates the "orthogonal direction".

[0022] 3, the blank 1A includes a display section 10, a first support piece 20, and a second support piece 30. The first support piece 20 and the second support piece 30 are disposed on either side of the display section 10 in the grain direction.

[0023] <Display section> The display unit 10 has a display surface portion 11, a support surface portion 12, an outer top surface portion 13, and an inner top surface portion 14.

[0024] (Display surface, support surface) The display surface portion 11 and the support surface portion 12 are each formed in a generally rectangular shape that is long in the orthogonal direction (left-right direction). The support surface portion 12 is formed in a generally rectangular shape that is shorter in the orthogonal direction than the display surface portion 11, and is arranged side by side with the display surface portion 11 in the grain direction with their centers aligned in the orthogonal direction. The dimensions of the display surface portion 11 and the support surface portion 12 in the grain direction (up-down direction) are generally the same. The support surface portion 12 is connected to one end (lower end) of the display surface portion 11 in the grain direction via a first fold line L1.

[0025] (Outer top surface) The outer top surface portion 13 is formed in a generally rectangular shape that is shorter in the grain direction than the display surface portion 11 and has the same dimensions in a direction perpendicular to the display surface portion 11. The outer top surface portion 13 is connected to the other end (upper end) of the display surface portion 11 in the grain direction via a second fold line L2.

[0026] (holding piece) A plurality of (for example, six) holding pieces 15 are formed at approximately equal intervals in the orthogonal direction (left-right direction) near the boundary (second fold line L2) between the display surface portion 11 and the outer top surface portion 13. Each holding piece 15 is partitioned by a holding cut 15A and a curved fold line L8 formed so as to be spaced apart from each other across the second fold line L2. Note that the multiple holding pieces 15 (holding cut 15A, curved fold line L8) have approximately the same shape, so this specification will mainly describe one holding piece 15 (holding cut 15A, curved fold line L8).

[0027] The retaining cut 15A is cut so as to bulge from the boundary (second fold line L2) between the display surface 11 and the outer top surface 13 toward one side (downward) in the grain direction of the display surface 11. The curved fold line L8 is formed so as to bulge from the boundary (second fold line L2) toward the other side (rear) in the grain direction of the outer top surface 13. The retaining cut 15A and the curved fold line L8 are formed in a substantially semicircular arc shape that is convex in the direction away from each other. The retaining piece 15 is divided into a substantially elliptical shape by the retaining cut 15A and the curved fold line L8. The second fold line L2 is not formed in each retaining piece 15, and is divided by each retaining piece 15 (retaining cut 15A).

[0028] (Inner top surface) The inner top surface portion 14 is formed in a generally rectangular shape that is generally the same size as the outer top surface portion 13. In detail, the inner top surface portion 14 is slightly shorter in the grain direction (front-to-back direction) than the outer top surface portion 13. The inner top surface portion 14 is centered perpendicular to the support surface portion 12 and is connected to one end (upper end) of the support surface portion 12 in the grain direction via a third fold line L3.

[0029] One end (upper end) of the support surface portion 12 in the grain direction is slightly embedded in the inner top surface portion 14, and the third fold line L3 is formed closer to the center (rear side) than the other end (front end) of the inner top surface portion 14 in the grain direction. Four lightening holes 16 are opened on one side of the support surface portion 12 in the grain direction. The four lightening holes 16 are formed to correspond to the spaces between the adjacent holding pieces 15, except for the central area in the perpendicular direction. Each lightening hole 16 is formed in a substantially semicircular shape that bulges toward the other side (downward) of the support surface portion 12 in the grain direction. A pair of cuts 17A is cut into the inner top surface portion 14 so as to connect both ends of each lightening hole 16 in the perpendicular direction to the third fold line L3. A front convex portion 17 is relatively protruded toward the lightening hole 16 between each pair of cuts 17A. The third fold line L3 is not formed in each front convex portion 17, but is divided by each front convex portion 17 (each cut pair 17A). Also, the lightening hole 16 may be omitted, and a substantially U-shaped cut that divides the front convex portion 17 may be formed (not shown).

[0030] <1st support piece> The first support piece 20 has a first main body piece 21 and a first folded back piece 22. The dimension of the entire first support piece 20, which is the combination of the first main body piece 21 and the first folded back piece 22, in the grain direction is slightly longer than the dimension of the display surface portion 11 in the grain direction.

[0031] (1st body piece) The first main body piece 21 is formed in a substantially rectangular shape that is shorter in the orthogonal direction (left-right direction) and the grain direction (up-down direction) than the support surface portion 12. The first main body piece 21 is centered in the orthogonal direction with the inner top surface portion 14, and is connected to one end (rear end) of the inner top surface portion 14 in the grain direction via the fourth fold line L4. The other end (upper end) of the first main body piece 21 in the grain direction is slightly embedded in the inner top surface portion 14, and the fourth fold line L4 is formed closer to the center (front) than the other end (rear end) of the inner top surface portion 14 in the grain direction. A substantially U-shaped (substantially C-shaped) rear cut 18A is cut in the center of the inner top surface portion 14 in the orthogonal direction from the fourth fold line L4 to embed itself in the first main body piece 21, and the rear convex portion 18 is defined by the rear cut 18A. The rear convex portion 18 is formed in a substantially rectangular shape, and its tip coincides with one end (rear end) in the grain direction of the inner top surface portion 14. The fourth fold line L4 is not formed in the rear convex portion 18, and is divided by the rear convex portion 18 (rear cut line 18A).

[0032] (1st folding piece) The first folded piece 22 is formed in a substantially rectangular shape that is slightly longer in the grain direction than the outer top surface portion 13 (inner top surface portion 14) and has the same dimensions as the first main body piece 21 in the perpendicular direction. The first folded piece 22 is connected to one end (lower end) of the first main body piece 21 in the grain direction via a fifth fold line L5. Near the boundary (fifth fold line L5) between the first main body piece 21 and the first folded piece 22, a plurality of (e.g., three) first fitting cutouts 23A are formed at substantially equal intervals in the perpendicular direction (left-right direction). Each of the first fitting cutouts 23A is cut into a substantially U-shape (substantially C-shape) so as to bite into the first main body piece 21 from the first folded piece 22. In the first folded piece 22, a substantially trapezoidal first fitting protrusion 23 is defined by each of the first fitting cutouts 23A. The fifth fold line L5 is not formed in each of the first fitting protrusions 23, but is divided by each of the first fitting protrusions 23 (first fitting cutouts 23A). Although details will be described later, the first folded piece 22 including each of the first fitting protrusions 23 is formed so as to be able to fit into the rail portion 92 of the display shelf 90.

[0033] <Second support piece> The second support piece 30 has a second main body piece 31 and a second folded piece 32. The dimension of the entire second support piece 30, which is the combination of the second main body piece 31 and the second folded piece 32, in the grain direction is slightly shorter than the dimension of the display surface portion 11 in the grain direction.

[0034] (2nd body piece, 2nd folded piece) The second main body piece 31 is shorter in the grain direction than the first main body piece 21 and is formed in a generally trapezoidal shape with generally the same dimensions in the direction perpendicular to the outer top surface portion 13. The second main body piece 31 is connected to the other end (rear end) of the outer top surface portion 13 in the grain direction via a sixth fold line L6. The second folded piece 32 is slightly shorter in the grain direction than the outer top surface portion 13 (inner top surface portion 14) and is formed in a generally rectangular shape with generally the same dimensions in the direction perpendicular to the tip end of the second main body piece 31. The second folded piece 32 is connected to the other end (lower end) of the second main body piece 31 in the grain direction via a seventh fold line L7.

[0035] In the second main body piece 31, a plurality of (for example, three) second fitting grooves 33 are formed at approximately equal intervals in the orthogonal direction (left-right direction). Each second fitting groove 33 is a groove formed in an approximately U-shape (approximately C-shape) that is convex toward the sixth folding line L6. In addition, in the vicinity of the boundary (seventh folding line L7) between the second main body piece 31 and the second folded piece 32, a plurality of (for example, three) second fitting cutouts 34A are formed at approximately equal intervals in the orthogonal direction (left-right direction). Each second fitting cutout 34A is cut in an approximately U-shape (approximately C-shape) so as to bite into the second folded piece 32 from the second main body piece 31. In the second folded piece 32, a second fitting protrusion 34 having an approximately trapezoidal shape is defined by each second fitting cutout 34A. The seventh fold line L7 is not formed in each of the second fitting protrusions 34, but is divided by each of the second fitting protrusions 34 (second fitting cutouts 34A).

[0036] Each second fitting groove 33 and each second fitting cut 34A are formed in a substantially U-shape that is convex in a direction away from each other, and a substantially quadrangular (more specifically, substantially octagonal) fitting portion 35 is defined in the second main body piece 31 by each second fitting groove 33 and each second fitting cut 34A. Each second fitting protrusion 34 described above constitutes a lower end portion of the fitting portion 35. Each fitting portion 35 is formed so as to be able to fit into a rail portion 92 of the display shelf 90, as will be described in detail later.

[0037] The first to seventh fold lines L1 to L7 and the curved fold line L8 are general-purpose creases that are recessed from the surface of the paperboard. The first to seventh fold lines L1 to L7 and the curved fold line L8 are not limited to general-purpose creases, and may be any lines for folding the paperboard in a desired direction, such as perforations or lead creases formed by perforating a general-purpose crease.

[0038] [Assembly of display components] Next, an example of an assembly procedure for the display member 1 will be described with reference to Figures 1, 4, and 5. Figure 4 is a perspective view showing the back side of the display member 1. Figure 5 is a cross-sectional view showing the display member 1.

[0039] The display member 1 is assembled by appropriately folding and joining (gluing) the blank 1A described above. Here, as an example, a case where a worker manually assembles the display member 1 will be described. In this specification, folding the paperboard so that the back surface faces inward is called "forward folding," and folding the paperboard so that the front surface faces inward is called "reverse folding." In addition, hot melt adhesives, emulsion adhesives, double-sided tape, adhesive tapes (single-sided adhesive), etc. can be used to join (glue) each part.

[0040] The worker folds the outer top surface portion 13 backward along the second fold line L2. When the outer top surface portion 13 is folded relative to the display surface portion 11, each of the holding pieces 15 is cut and raised from the display surface portion 11 along the holding cut line 15A and protrudes forward from the outer top surface portion 13 (see FIG. 1).

[0041] Next, the worker folds the support surface portion 12 back (forward folding) to the back side of the display surface portion 11 along the first fold line L1, and reversely folds the inner top surface portion 14 backward along the third fold line L3. When the inner top surface portion 14 is folded relative to the support surface portion 12, each front convex portion 17 is cut out from the inner top surface portion 14 along the cut line pair 17A and protrudes forward (see FIG. 5). The worker adheres the upper surface (rear surface) of the inner top surface portion 14 to the lower surface (rear surface) of the outer top surface portion 13 while aligning the tip (front end) of each front convex portion 17 with the second fold line L2 (see FIG. 5). In this specification, when the outer top surface portion 13 and the inner top surface portion 14 are described together, they will be simply referred to as "top surface portions 13, 14".

[0042] Next, the worker reverse-folds the first body piece 21 of the first support piece 20 downward along the fourth fold line L4, and forward-folds the second body piece 31 of the second support piece 30 downward along the sixth fold line L6. When the first body piece 21 is folded toward the inner top surface portion 14, the rear convex portion 18 comes out of the first body piece 21 along the rear cut line 18A (is cut and raised) and protrudes relatively rearward (see FIG. 5). The tip (rear end) of the rear convex portion 18 approximately coincides with the sixth fold line L6.

[0043] The worker also adheres the engagement rail 40, which is made by folding a sheet of cardboard in half, to the bottom of the display surface 11. The engagement rail 40 is a substantially rectangular cardboard having the same width in the left-right direction as the display surface 11 (see FIG. 1). The engagement rail 40 is made by folding the cardboard in half with the leading edge shifted vertically and pasting it together, with the leading edge facing upward, and adhering the narrower part of the folded piece to the display surface 11. A gap of about one sheet of cardboard is formed between the wider part of the folded piece and the display surface 11 (see FIG. 5). The engagement rail 40 is configured as a separate member from the blank 1A, but may be considered to constitute a part of the display surface 10.

[0044] The display member 1 is thus completed (assembly is completed). The outer top surface portion 13 and the inner top surface portion 14 are stacked on top of each other in a substantially horizontal position, and each holding piece 15 protrudes substantially parallel to the outer top surface portion 13. The display surface portion 11 and the support surface portion 12 are inclined downward from the front ends of the top surfaces 13 and 14 toward the front. As shown in FIG. 5, the upper end of the support surface portion 12 is connected to the inner top surface portion 14 at a position shifted rearward from the front end of the inner top surface portion 14, so that the support surface portion 12 folded back at the lower end of the display surface portion 11 faces the back surface of the display surface portion 11 with a gap corresponding to the amount of shift. In detail, the support surface portion 12 is arranged so that the distance between the display surface portion 11 and the support surface portion 12 gradually increases from the lower end to the upper end. In other words, the display unit 10 (the display surface unit 11, the support surface unit 12, and the top surfaces 13 and 14) form a structure having a generally triangular prism shape (a triangular cylinder shape). Therefore, the display surface unit 11 and the support surface unit 12 can be held in an inclined position.

[0045] As shown in Figs. 4 and 5, the outer top surface portion 13 is installed between the upper ends of the display surface portion 11 and the second support piece 30, and the second support piece 30 is suspended from the rear end of the outer top surface portion 13. As shown in Fig. 5, the inner top surface portion 14 fixed to the lower surface of the outer top surface portion 13 is installed between the upper ends of the support surface portion 12 and the first support piece 20, and the first support piece 20 is suspended from the rear of the inner top surface portion 14. The first support piece 20 faces the back surface of the support surface portion 12 (display portion 10). In detail, the first support piece 20 is disposed behind the support surface portion 12 with a gap corresponding to the distance between the third fold line L3 and the fourth fold line L4. The second support piece 30 faces the back surface of the first support piece 20. In detail, the upper end of the first support piece 20 is connected to the inner top surface portion 14 at a position shifted forward from the rear end of the inner top surface portion 14, and therefore the second support piece 30 is positioned rearward of the first support piece 20 with a gap corresponding to the amount of shift (the amount of protrusion of the rear convex portion 18).

[0046] <Installation of information sheet> Information about the products displayed (displayed) on the display shelf 90 is displayed on the front of the display surface portion 11 (display portion 10) that is extended in the vertical direction. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 5, the display surface portion 11 is formed to be able to hold an information sheet S on which information is displayed. The information sheet S is a rectangular coated paper that is roughly the same size as the display surface portion 11. Product information is printed on one side (or both sides) of the information sheet S (not shown). The information sheet S is arranged so as to overlap the front of the display surface portion 11, and both upper and lower ends of the information sheet S engage with each of the holding pieces 15 and the engagement rail 40. In detail, the upper end of the information sheet S is inserted between the back surface of each of the holding pieces 15 and the front of the display surface portion 11. Then, each of the holding pieces 15 is bent downward along the curved fold line L8 and held in a position inclined downward from the outer top surface portion 13 toward the front (see FIG. 5). That is, the upper end of the information sheet S is held by being sandwiched between each of the inclined holding pieces 15 and the display surface 11. Meanwhile, the lower end of the information sheet S is inserted into the gap between the wide portion of the engagement rail 40 in the vertical direction and the display surface 11 (see FIG. 5).

[0047] [Display component installation method] The display member 1 according to this embodiment is attached to the display shelf 90 in four different methods (four forms). In the case of the display shelf 90 from which the advertising rail 94 has been removed (see FIG. 1), the display member 1 is attached to the display shelf 90 in any one of the first form F1, the second form F2, and the third form F3. In the case of the display shelf 90 to which the advertising rail 94 has been attached (see FIG. 2), the display member 1 is attached to the display shelf 90 in the fourth form F4 that utilizes the advertising rail 94. In other words, the display member 1 according to this embodiment is configured so that the attachment form to the display shelf 90 can be changed in four different ways.

Fig. 15 is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which the display member 1 is attached to the display shelf 90 in the fourth form F4.

[0049] <First form> When the display member 1 is attached in the first form F1 to the display shelf 90 from which the advertising rail 94 has been removed, as shown in Figs. 6 and 8, the user folds back (forward fold) the first folded piece 22 along the fifth folding line L5 toward the back side (rear) of the first main body piece 21, and folds back (forward fold) the second folded piece 32 along the seventh folding line L7 toward the back side (front) of the second main body piece 31. When the first folded piece 22 is folded back onto the first main body piece 21, each of the first fitting protrusions 23 is cut and raised from the first main body piece 21 along the first fitting cutout 23A and protrudes downward. When the second folded piece 32 is folded back onto the second main body piece 31, each of the second fitting protrusions 34 is pulled out (cut and raised) from the second folded piece 32 along the second fitting cutout 34A and protrudes relatively downward.

[0050] As shown in Fig. 8, the user fits the first folded piece 22 including each of the first fitting protrusions 23 into the rail portion 92 of the display shelf 90. Each of the first fitting protrusions 23 fits (engages) into the lower rail groove 92D of the rail portion 92, and the tip (upper end) of the folded first folded piece 22 fits (engages) into the upper rail groove 92U of the rail portion 92. In addition, the user inserts (presses) the folded portion (lower end) of the second folded piece 32 and the second main body piece 31 into the shelf groove 93 of the display shelf 90 (see also Fig. 7).

[0051] As a result, the display member 1 is attached to the display shelf 90 in the first form F1 (see FIG. 7). In the display member 1 in the first form F1, the lower part (first folded-back piece 22) of the first support piece 20 fits into the rail portion 92, and the lower part (folded-back portion of the second folded-back piece 32 and the second main body piece 31) of the second support piece 30 is inserted into the shelf groove 93 (see FIG. 8). The display surface portion 11 and the support surface portion 12 are disposed in an inclined position in front of the rail portion 92, and cover part of the rail portion 92 (see FIGS. 7 and 8).

[0052] <Second form> When attaching the display member 1 in the second form F2 to the display shelf 90 from which the advertising rail 94 has been removed, as shown in Figs. 9 and 11, the user places the first support piece 20 on the front (back side) of the second support piece 30, and folds (forward folds) the first folded piece 22 along the fifth folding line L5 to the back side (front side) of the second folded piece 32. In other words, the first main body piece 21 and the first folded piece 22 sandwich (wrap) the second folded piece 32 (and a part of the second main body piece 31). The second folded piece 32 is not folded at the seventh folding line L7, and its tip (lower end) abuts against the folded portion (fifth folding line L5) between the first main body piece 21 and the first folded piece 22.

[0053] 10 and 11, the user fits (engages) the folded portions (lower ends including the engaging rail 40) of the display surface portion 11 and the support surface portion 12 into the lower rail groove 92D of the rail portion 92 of the display shelf 90. The user also inserts (presses) the folded portions (lower ends including the first engaging protrusions 23) of the first main body piece 21 and the first folded piece 22, which sandwich the second folded piece 32, etc., into the shelf groove 93 of the display shelf 90.

[0054] As a result, the display member 1 is attached to the display shelf 90 in the second form F2 (see FIG. 10). In the display member 1 in the second form F2, the lower part of the display part 10 (the folded part of the display surface part 11 and the support surface part 12) is engaged with the lower part of the rail part 92, and the lower part of the first support piece 20 and the second support piece 30 (the folded part of the first main body piece 21 and the first folded piece 22 sandwiching the second folded piece 32, etc.) is inserted into the shelf groove 93 (see FIG. 11). The display surface part 11 and the support surface part 12 are in an upright position standing upright substantially vertically on the lower rail groove 92D of the rail part 92 (see FIG. 10 and FIG. 11). As the display surface part 11 and the support surface part 12 are in a substantially vertical position, the support surface part 12 is compressed in the vertical direction and bent so as to bulge backward (see FIG. 11).

[0055] <3rd form> When attaching the display member 1 in the third form F3 to the display shelf 90 from which the advertising rail 94 has been removed, the user folds the second folded piece 32 back along the seventh fold line L7 to the back side (front) of the second main body piece 31 (see FIG. 6). As the second folded piece 32 is folded back, each of the second fitting protrusions 34 protrudes relatively downward, and each fitting portion 35 is cut out from the second main body piece 31. Each fitting portion 35 is formed so as to be able to fit into the rail portion 92 of the display shelf 90.

[0056] 13, the user fits each fitting portion 35 into the rail portion 92 of the display shelf 90. The second fitting protrusions 34, which are the lower ends of each fitting portion 35, fit (engage) into the lower rail groove 92D of the rail portion 92, and the upper ends (the lower edges of the second fitting grooves 33) of each fitting portion 35 fit (engage) into the upper rail groove 92U of the rail portion 92. The first support piece 20 may be left hanging down from the inner top surface portion 14, or the first folded piece 22 may be folded back so as to wrap around the lower portion of the rail portion 92 (the lower rail groove 92D).

[0057] As a result of the above, the display member 1 is attached to the display shelf 90 in the third configuration F3 (see FIG. 12). In the display member 1 in the third configuration F3, the fitting portion 35 formed on the second support piece 30 fits into the rail portion 92, and the entire display portion 10 is provided so as to protrude forward from the rail portion 92 (see FIGS. 12 and 13). In addition, in the display member 1 in the third configuration F3, the display portion 10 is rotated backward so as to lift the lower end (first fold line L1) of the display surface portion 11, etc., and the top surface portions 13, 14 are inclined downward from the front end to the bottom end (see FIG. 13).

[0058] <4th form> When attaching the display member 1 in the fourth form F4 to the display shelf 90 to which the advertising rail 94 is attached, the user folds the first folded piece 22 to the back side (rear) of the first main body piece 21 along the fifth folding line L5, and folds the second folded piece 32 to the back side (front) of the second main body piece 31 along the seventh folding line L7 (see FIG. 6). As shown in FIG. 15, the user clamps the folded first folded piece 22 and first main body piece 21 in the clamping portion 96 of the advertising rail 94. In addition, the user inserts the folded portion (lower end portion) of the second folded piece 32 and second main body piece 31 into the back groove 97 of the advertising rail 94 while aligning the second main body piece 31 along the back side of the standing portion 95 of the advertising rail 94.

[0059] As a result, the display member 1 is attached to the display shelf 90 (advertising rail 94) in the fourth configuration F4 (see FIG. 14). In the display member 1 in the fourth configuration F4, the first support piece 20 is sandwiched between the clamping portion 96, and the lower portion of the second support piece 30 (the folded portion between the second folded piece 32 and the second main body piece 31) is inserted into the rear groove 97 of the standing portion 95 (see FIG. 15). The display surface portion 11 and the support surface portion 12 are disposed in an inclined position in front of the clamping portion 96, and cover part of the clamping portion 96 (see FIGS. 14 and 15).

[0060] The information sheet S may be held by the display unit 10 before the display member 1 is attached to the display shelf 90, or may be held by the display unit 10 after the display member 1 is attached to the display shelf 90.

[0061] In the display member 1 according to the present embodiment described above, the display section 10 (the display surface section 11 and the support surface section 12), the first support piece 20, and the second support piece 30 are arranged side by side in this order from the front to the rear (see FIG. 5). The display member 1 is attached to the display shelf 90 not including the advertisement rail 94 in one form selected from the first form F1, the second form F2, and the third form F3 (see FIGS. 8, 11, 13, etc.). With this configuration, it is possible to accommodate various mounting methods for the display shelf 90 not including the advertisement rail 94, for example, according to the installation location of the display shelf 90, the height of the shelf board 91, the user's preferences, etc. In addition, the display surface section 11, etc. can be provided in an inclined or upright position, and the display section 10 can be provided so as to protrude from the rail section 92. In this way, by changing the mounting method of the display member 1, it is possible to change the way the information displayed on the display member 1 is presented. This makes it possible to enhance the appealing effect of the products displayed (displayed) on the display shelf 90.

[0062] Furthermore, the display member 1 according to this embodiment is attached to the display shelf 90 including the advertising rail 94 in the fourth form F4 (see Figs. 14 and 15). With this configuration, the display member 1 can be attached using the advertising rail 94, so that even if the form of the display shelf 90 changes, it is not necessary to change the design of the display member 1. In this way, the display member 1 can be attached while flexibly responding to changes in the form of the display shelf 90.

[0063] Needless to say, the display member 1 according to this embodiment can also be attached to a display shelf 90 having a front fence (not shown) erected at the front end of the shelf board 91. In other words, if there is a front fence, the front fence may be inserted between the display unit 10 and the first support piece 20, or the front fence may be inserted between the first support piece 20 and the second support piece 30 (neither of which are shown).

[0064] Furthermore, according to the display member 1 of this embodiment, the display surface 11, the support surface 12, and the top surfaces 13 and 14 form a substantially triangular prism-shaped structure, so that the attitude (angle) of the display surface 11 can be supported at a substantially constant level (see FIG. 5). This makes it easier to view the information held on the display surface 11, and is expected to improve the appeal of the product.

[0065] Furthermore, in the display member 1 according to this embodiment, the engagement rail 40 and the holding piece 15 are configured to engage with both the upper and lower ends of the information sheet S. The holding piece 15 is bent downward at the curved fold line L8 and held in a position that slopes downward diagonally forward (see FIG. 5). With this configuration, the holding piece 15 engages with the display surface 11 to sandwich the upper end of the information sheet S, so that the information sheet S can be securely held. This makes it possible to prevent the information sheet S from falling off the display surface 11.

[0066] In the display member 1 according to the present embodiment, six holding pieces 15 (holding cuts 15A, curved fold lines L8) are formed on the display surface 11 and the outer top surface 13, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and one or more (preferably two or more) holding pieces 15, etc. may be formed on the display surface 11, etc. (not shown). In addition, one engaging rail 40 is provided over the entire left-right area of ​​the display surface 11, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the engaging rail 40 may be divided into a plurality of pieces and provided on a part of the left-right area of ​​the display surface 11 (not shown).

In this case, the information sheet S may be attached to the front surface of the display surface 11, or the information sheet S may be omitted and information may be printed on the front surface of the display surface 11 (neither is shown).

[0067] In addition, in the display member 1 according to the present embodiment, the display unit 10 is formed in a substantially triangular prism shape by the display surface portion 11, the support surface portion 12, and the top surface portions 13 and 14, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the support surface portion 12 and the inner top surface portion 14 may be omitted, and the display unit 10 may be formed in a substantially L-shape by the display surface portion 11 and the outer top surface portion 13 (not shown). In this case, the second support piece 30 may be connected to the outer top surface portion 13, and the first support piece 20 may be separate from the display unit 10 and the like, and may be bonded (fixed) to the outer top surface portion 13 (not shown). Alternatively, the support surface portion 12, the outer top surface portion 13, and the inner top surface portion 14 may be omitted, and the display unit 10 may be formed only by the display surface portion 11 (not shown). In this case, either the first support piece 20 or the second support piece 30 is connected to the display surface portion 11, and the other of the first support piece 20 or the second support piece 30 is separate from the display surface portion 11 and adhered (fixed) to the display surface portion 11 (not shown).

[0068] In addition, in the display member 1 according to this embodiment, the first support piece 20 is divided into the first main body piece 21 and the first folded back piece 22, but this is not limited thereto, and the first support piece 20 may be a single undivided part (not shown).
