FIG. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0012] The following describes an embodiment of the fixture of the present invention with reference to the drawings. The fixture of the present invention has a shelf that can be pulled out toward the front, and a product case containing beverage products can be placed on the pulled-out shelf and rotated to a desired position on the shelf. In the following description, the front direction is designated as F, the rear direction as R, the width direction as W, and the height direction as H.

[0013] A fixture 11 according to an embodiment will be described with reference to Figures 1 to 23. As shown in Figures 1 and 2, fixture 11 has a main body 12 formed by framing a plurality of linearly extending members into a generally rectangular parallelepiped shape, a lower stage 12A provided at a position corresponding to the bottom surface of main body 12, and an upper stage 12B provided at a position corresponding to the top surface of main body 12.

[0014] The main body 12 has a pair of side panels 13 connecting the upper and lower sections 12B and 12A, and a pair of support posts 14 connecting the upper and lower sections 12B and 12A. Each section of the main body 12 is made of a metal material such as steel. The main body 12 is formed by welding a plurality of members together into a generally rectangular parallelepiped frame. The upper and lower sections 12B and 12A of the main body 12 each have a storage section 16 that is a space capable of storing shelf boards 15. In this embodiment, the lower and upper sections 12A and 12B have substantially the same structure, so the following description will mainly focus on the lower section 12A, and a description of the upper section 12B will be omitted.

[0015] As shown in FIG. 4, the lower section 12A has a generally rectangular frame shape when viewed from below. More specifically, the lower section 12A has a generally U-shaped frame 21 having a pair of open ends 21A, and a pair of connecting shafts 22 connecting the pair of open ends 21A. The pair of connecting shafts 22 are spaced apart near the bases of the pair of open ends 21A and near the tips of the pair of open ends 21A. The lower section 12A also has a shelf 15 that is movable relative to the main body 12, a pair of rails 23 interposed between the shelf 15 and the main body 12, an engaging member 24 provided on the shelf 15, and a pair of engaged members 26 provided on the main body 12.

[0016] The shelf board 15 can be moved by the action of a pair of rails 23 between a first position P1 where it is stored in the storage section 16 as shown in Fig. 2 and a second position P2 where it is pulled out forward from the first position P1 as shown in Fig. 3. In addition, a product case 25 can be placed on the shelf board 15.

[0017] As shown in Fig. 2, the shelf board 15 has, for example, a rectangular shape that is elongated in the front-to-rear direction. The shelf board 15 is formed, for example, by bending a metal plate. The shelf board 15 has upright pieces 15A at the rear and both sides for holding the product cases 25 on the shelf board 15. As shown in Fig. 2, the upright pieces 15A are arranged in a substantially U-shape when viewed from above, surrounding the outer edge of the shelf board 15.

[0018] As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the pair of rails 23 are provided at positions corresponding to both ends in the width direction W of the shelf board 15. As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the pair of rails 23 are configured to be extendable and retractable, allowing the shelf board 15 supported therebetween to be moved between a first position P1 and a second position P2.

[0019] As shown in FIGS. 4 to 6 , the engaging member 24 is integrally formed by welding together a plurality of wire rods made of, for example, steel. The engaging member 24 has a support shaft 31 extending linearly in a width direction W perpendicular to the front-rear direction FR, finger hooks 32 extending in the forward direction F from both ends of the support shaft 31, a hook portion 33 extending in the rearward direction R from the support shaft 31, a second support shaft 34 linearly disposed adjacent to and parallel to the support shaft 31, and a pair of annular bearings 35 that rotatably support the support shaft 31. The bearings 35 rotatably hold the support shaft 31 that is inserted therethrough. This allows the engaging member 24 to rotate in a seesaw manner around the support shaft 31 and the bearings 35. That is, the engaging member 24 can rotate in a seesaw manner between an engaging position S1 (see Figure 8) in which it is engaged with the engaged member 26 described later, and a disengaging position S2 (see Figure 9) in which it is separated from the engaged member 26.

[0020] 5 and 6, the support shaft 31 is formed from a round wire rod. The finger hook 32 forms a substantially square ring shape together with the support shaft 31. The finger hook 32 includes a pair of first rods 41 extending linearly in the front-rear direction FR, a first connecting portion 42 extending linearly in the width direction W to connect the tip ends (first tip ends 41A) of the pair of first rods 41, and a flat plate 43 provided along the first connecting portion 42.

[0021] Plate 43 is fixed by means of, for example, welding to the portion (first tip portion 41A) of the pair of first rod portions 41 opposite the portion connected to support shaft portion 31, and to first connecting portion 42. Therefore, when a store manager places his or her fingers on finger hook portion 32, plate 43 increases the area of ​​the portion where the fingers can be placed, improving operability when releasing the locked state of shelf board 15.

[0022] 5 and 6, the hook portion 33 is provided on the opposite side of the support shaft portion 31 from the finger hook portion 32. The hook portion 33 and the support shaft portion 31 form a substantially rectangular ring shape. The hook portion 33 includes a pair of second rod portions 44 extending in the front-rear direction FR, and a second connecting portion 45 extending linearly in the width direction W to connect the tip ends (second tip ends 44A) of the pair of second rod portions 44. The second rod portion 44 is bent downward by 90 degrees near a portion (second tip end 44A) opposite to the portion connected to the support shaft portion 31.

[0023] The second connecting portion 45 is formed to be longer than the support shaft portion 31. Both end portions 45A of the second connecting portion 45 are provided so as to protrude outward in the width direction W from the locations where the pair of second rod portions 44 are provided. The both end portions 45A can engage with the pair of engaged members 26.

[0024] The pair of bearing portions 35 are spaced apart in the width direction W, which is perpendicular to the front-rear direction FR. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, each of the pair of bearing portions 35 has a pair of first fasteners 51 fixed directly to the shelf board 15 and a pair of second fasteners 52 fixed so as to cover the pair of first fasteners 51 from above. The first fasteners 51 and the second fasteners 52 are formed, for example, by bending a metal sheet. As shown in FIG. 6, each of the pair of first fasteners 51 has a pair of fixing portions 51A fixed to the shelf board 15 by welding or the like, and a step portion 51B protruding in a step-like manner from the fixing portions 51A in a direction away from the shelf board 15.

[0025] As shown in FIG. 5 , each of the pair of second fasteners 52 is U-shaped and can cover the step portion 51B of the first fastener 51 from above. The second fastener 52 is detachably fixed to the first fastener 51, for example, with a screw or the like. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 7 , the bearing portion 35, by means of the first fastener 51 and the second fastener 52, forms an inner through-hole 53 extending in the width direction W and a substantially rectangular duct-shaped edge portion 54 extending in the width direction W so as to define the periphery of the through-hole 53. The bearing portion 35 can rotatably hold the support shaft 31 inserted through the through-hole 53 by means of the edge portion 54. The edge portion 54 has a pair of end faces 54A at both ends in the width direction W. Each of the pair of end faces 54A defines the outer edge of the opening 53A of the through-hole 53.

[0026] 6 and 7, the second support shaft portion 34 is formed from a round wire rod and has a length shorter than that of the support shaft portion 31. The second support shaft portion 34 is provided parallel to the support shaft portion 31 at a position corresponding to the middle portion of the support shaft portion 31. The second support shaft portion 34 is joined to the support shaft portion 31 over its entire length by welding or the like. Therefore, the second support shaft portion 34 is formed integrally with the support shaft portion 31.

[0027] The second support shaft 34 has a pair of shaft end faces 34A at both ends in the width direction W. Each of the pair of shaft end faces 34A can face each of the pair of end faces 54A with a predetermined gap therebetween. In this embodiment, the predetermined gap is, for example, within a range of 0.5 to several millimeters and varies depending on the relative position of the second support shaft 34 with respect to the bearing 35. The end face 54A can come into contact with and separate from the end face 54A, thereby preventing the finger hook 32 and the plate 43 from significantly moving in the width direction W.

[0028] When the store manager is not touching the engaging member 24, the engaging member 24 assumes an engaging position S1 in which the finger hook portion 32 is lowered downward due to its own weight. That is, the engaging member 24 is designed so that the weight of the finger hook portion 32 is greater than the weight of the hook portion 33. For this reason, for example, if the store manager operates the engaging member 24 to the disengagement position S2 and then removes his or her finger from the finger hook portion 32, the engaging member 24 will move from the disengagement position S2 to the engaging position S1 due to its own weight.

[0029] 4 and 8, the pair of engaged members 26 are provided on the inner circumferential surface of the main body 12 near the rails 23. Each of the pair of engaged members 26 is formed in the shape of a rectangular flat plate that is elongated in the front-rear direction FR. The engaged members 26 are fixed to the inner circumferential surface of the main body 12 by, for example, welding.

[0030] The engaged member 26 has a first engaged portion 55 and a second engaged portion 56 located forward of the first engaged portion 55. In this embodiment, the first engaged portion 55 is located at the rear end of the engaged member 26. The second engaged portion 56 is located at the front end of the engaged member 26. The first engaged portion 55 and the second engaged portion 56 are each formed as a recess recessed upward from the lower side. When the engaging member 24 is in the engaging position S1, both the first engaged portion 55 and the second engaged portion 56 can receive both end portions 45A of the second connecting portion 45. As a result, when the shelf board 15 is in the first position P1, the engaging member 24 located at the engaging position S1 engages with the first engaged portion 55, thereby preventing the shelf board 15 from moving in the front-to-rear direction FR. Similarly, when the shelf board 15 is in the second position P2, the engaging member 24 at the engaging position S1 engages with the second engaged portion 56, thereby preventing the shelf board 15 from moving in the front-rear direction.

[0031] As shown in Figure 8, the pair of connecting shafts 22 are provided adjacent to and directly below the engaged member 26, and define the range within which the second connecting portion 45 can move. In other words, when the shelf board 15 moves in the front-to-rear direction FR, the second connecting portion 45 of the engaging member 24 can move back and forth within a range corresponding to the engaged member 26. Furthermore, the second connecting portion 45 cannot move in the front-to-rear direction FR beyond the pair of connecting shafts 22. Therefore, in other words, the second connecting portion 45 defines the range within which the shelf board 15 can move in the front-to-rear direction FR.

[0032] The product 61 is, for example, a beverage. As an example, the product 61 is a 1L-sized packaged beverage that is elongated in the vertical direction. The product case 25 can store a plurality of the products 61. Product cases 25 of an industry-standard shape are widely available, and typically, this product case 25 can store 12 1L-sized products 61 (beverage products) (3 columns vertically x 4 columns horizontally) (see Figure 15). For this reason, the weight of the product case 25 when stored with the products 61 often exceeds 12 kg. As shown in Figure 1, the product case 25 has an opening 25A that a store manager can use to hook their fingers when lifting the product case 25.

[0033] Next, the operation of fixture 11 of this embodiment will be described with reference to Figures 8 to 23. Normally, when shelf 15 is in first position P1 stored in storage section 16 of main body 12, engaging member 24 is in engaging position S1, and second connecting portion 45 is received in first engaged portion 55, as shown in Figures 8 and 13. Therefore, shelf 15 will not move from first position P1 to second position P2 when the store manager does not intend to do so.

[0034] When a store manager wishes to display a product case 25 on the lower section 12A of the fixture 11 in this state, the store manager places his or her finger on the plate 43 of the finger hook 32 of the engaging member 24 and lifts it, thereby moving the engaging member 24 from the engaged position S1 to the disengaged position S2. At this time, the engaging member 24 rotates in a seesaw manner around the support shaft 31 and the bearing 35, and the second connecting portion 45 moves from a state in which it is housed in the first engaged portion 55 of the engaged member 26, as shown in FIG. 8, to a state in which it is separated from the first engaged portion 55, as shown in FIG. 9. This causes the shelf board 15 to transition from a locked state to an unlocked state in which movement in the front-to-rear direction FR is permitted. If the store manager then pulls out the shelf board 15 in the forward direction F, the shelf board 15 is pulled out in the forward direction F, as shown in FIG. 10. When the store manager pulls the shelf 15 forward F to the second position P2 pulled out from the storage section 16 as shown in Figures 11 and 14 and releases his / her fingers from the plate 43 of the finger hook 32, the engaging member 24 moves from the disengaged position S2 to the engaged position S1 due to its own weight. At this time, the second connecting portion 45 is accommodated in the second engaged portion 56 as shown in Figure 12. This locks the shelf 15, preventing it from unintentionally moving from the second position P2 to the first position P1.

[0035] In this state, the store manager places the product case 25 on the shelf board 15, as shown in Figure 15. To enable customers to remove the products 61 from the front, the store manager rotates the product case 25 on the shelf board 15 from the normal position T1 to the sideways position T2, as shown in Figures 16 and 17. At this time, the engaging member 24 is in the engaging position S1, so the shelf board 15 is fixed in place, making it easier for the store manager to perform the work.

[0036] As shown in Figure 18, the store manager pushes the product case 25, which is in the lying position T2, in the rear direction R to move it to the back of the shelf board 15. In this case, too, the engaging member 24 is in the engaging position S1 and the shelf board 15 is fixed, making it easy for the store manager to perform the work.

[0037] 19, a second product case 25 is placed in the front space on the shelf board 15. Then, in the same manner as the first product case 25, the product case 25 is rotated from the normal state T1 to the sideways state T2 on the shelf board 15 as shown in FIGS.

[0038] To return the shelf 15 from the second position P2 to the first position P1, as shown in FIG. 22, the store manager places his or her fingers on the plate 43 of the finger hook 32 of the engaging member 24 and lifts it, moving the engaging member 24 from the engaged position S1 to the disengaged position S2. This moves the shelf 15 from the locked state to a movable state. The store manager then moves the shelf 15 from the second position P2 to the first position P1. By moving the shelf 15 to the first position P1 shown in FIG. 23 and removing his or her fingers from the plate 43 of the finger hook 32, the engaging member 24 moves from the disengaged position S2 to the engaged position S1 due to its own weight. This causes the second connecting portion 45 to fit into the first engaged portion 55. This locks the shelf 15, preventing it from unintentionally moving from the first position P1. This completes the display of products 61 on the lower section 12A.

[0039] Similarly, in the upper section 12B of the fixture 11, as in the lower section 12A, product cases 25 can be placed on the shelf 15 that has been pulled out from the first position P1 to the second position P2, and the two product cases 25 can be rotated from the normal position T1 to the sideways position T2, and then returned from the second position P2 to the first position P1, thereby displaying the products 61.

[0040] A modified example of the fixture 11 of the embodiment will be described with reference to Figures 24 to 26. Below, differences from the first embodiment will be described, and common parts will not be described. In this embodiment, the engaged member 26 has a plurality of third engaged portions 71. The plurality of third engaged portions 71 are located between the first engaged portion 55 and the second engaged portion 56. The plurality of third engaged portions 71 are arranged at regular intervals along the front-rear direction FR. Note that, although a plurality of third engaged portions 71 are provided in this modified example, this is not limiting. For example, the third engaged portion 71 may be a single portion, or may be located at an intermediate position between the first engaged portion 55 and the second engaged portion 56. The third engaged portion 71 has a shape similar to that of the first engaged portion 55 and the second engaged portion 56.

[0041] When the engaging member 24 is in the engaging position S1, both of the third engaged portions 71 can receive both end portions 45A of the second connecting portion 45. As a result, when the shelf board 15 is in the third position P3 between the first position P1 and the second position P2, the engaging member 24 in the engaging position S1 engages with the third engaged portion 71, thereby preventing the shelf board 15 from moving in the front-to-rear direction (see Figure 26. Note that in Figure 26, the engaging member 24 is in the disengaging position S2).

[0042] The operation of the fixture 11 of this modified example will be described with reference to FIGS. 24 to 26. In this modified example, because multiple third engagement portions 71 are provided, the shelf 15 can be fixed at any position along the way from the first position P1 to the second position P2. Therefore, when a store manager places product cases 25 on the shelf 15 and displays products 61, the store manager can lock the shelf 15 so that it cannot be moved in the front-to-rear direction FR not only at the first position P1 shown in FIG. 24 and the second position P2 shown in FIG. 25 but also at a location desired by the store manager, such as a third position P3 between the first position P1 and the second position P2 as shown in FIG. 26. In this state, the store manager can place product cases 25 and display products 61 as needed.

[0043] According to this embodiment, the following can be said. The fixture 11 comprises a main body 12 having a storage section 16, a shelf 15 that is movable between a first position P1 stored in the storage section 16 and a second position P2 pulled out forward from the first position P1 and on which a product case 25 can be placed, an engaging member 24 provided on the shelf 15 and movable between an engaging position S1 and a disengaging position S2, and an engaged member 26 provided on the main body 12 and with which the engaging member 24 is engaged, the engaging member 24 having a first engaged portion 55 with which the engaging member 24 at the engaging position S1 engages when the shelf 15 is at the first position P1, thereby immobilizing the shelf 15, and a second engaged portion 56 provided forward of the first engaged portion 55, the engaging member 24 at the engaging position S1 engages when the shelf 15 is at the second position P2, thereby immobilizing the shelf 15.

[0044] With this configuration, not only can the engaging member 24 engage with the first engaged portion 55 when the shelf 15 is in the first position P1, but also the engaging member 24 can engage with the second engaged portion 56 when the shelf 15 is in the second position P2. This prevents the shelf 15 from unintentionally returning to the first position P1 when the store manager places a product case 25 on the shelf 15 in the second position P2 and rotates the product case 25 from the normal position T1 to the sideways position T2. ​​This reduces the burden on the store manager and enables efficient store management.

[0045] In this case, the engaged member 26 has one or more third engaged portions 71 positioned between the first engaged portion 55 and the second engaged portion 56, and when the shelf board 15 is at the third position P3 located between the first position P1 and the second position P2, the one or more third engaged portions 71 can prevent the shelf board 15 from moving by engaging with the engaging member 24 located at the engagement position S1.

[0046] With this configuration, depending on the situation, the store manager can place a product case 25 on a shelf 15 in the third position P3 and rotate the product case 25 from the normal position T1 to the sideways position T2. ​​In this case, because the shelf 15 in the third position P3 can be immobilized, it is possible to prevent the shelf 15 from unintentionally returning to the first position P1. This reduces the burden on the store manager and enables efficient store management.

[0047] In this case, the one or more third engaged portions 71 are configured in plurality, and the plurality of third engaged portions 71 are provided at regular intervals along the front-rear direction FR.

[0048] According to this configuration, since the third engaged portions 71 are configured in plurality, the shelf board 15 can be immobilized at any position. This makes it possible to realize fixture 11 that is even more user-friendly for the store manager.

[0049] In this case, the shelf board 15 has a pair of annular bearing portions 35 that are separated in the width direction W that is perpendicular to the front-to-rear direction FR, and the engaging member 24 has a support shaft portion 31 that is located inside the bearing portion 35 and rotatably supported by the bearing portion 35, a finger grip portion 32 extending from the support shaft portion 31, a hook portion 33 that extends from the support shaft portion 31 and can be hooked onto the first engaged portion 55 and the second engaged portion 56, and a second support shaft portion 34 that is arranged adjacent to the support shaft portion 31 and in a straight line parallel to the support shaft portion 31, and has a shaft portion end face 34A that faces the end face 54A of the edge portion 54 of the bearing portion 35 with a predetermined gap therebetween.

[0050] According to this configuration, even if a force is applied to the finger grip portion 32 and the hook portion 33 that causes them to wobble in the width direction W, the support shaft end face 54A abuts against the end face 54A and acts as a stopper, thereby preventing the finger grip portion 32 and the hook portion 33 from wobbling significantly in the width direction W.

[0051] The above-described embodiment can be implemented with various further substitutions and modifications. [Explanation of symbols]
