[0002] TEXT OF THE DESCRIPTION

[0003] Scope of the invention

[0004] The scope of interest of the present invention is that of compact foldable preassembled displays, to be assembled once they have reached their destination.

[0005] Prior art

[0006] There are in the sector, for the experts who deal with it, a plurality of displays of every shape and material as long as they are suitable for forming pre-assembled displays in manufacture that are supplied "folded" in order to reduce as much as possible the volume or size of transport.

[0007] For example, known in the art is the SMART HUG device that is eco-friendly: monomaterial - made entirely of FSC® certified paper - and without lamination, it has a high level of recyclability guaranteed by the ATICELCA® A Certification and can be recycled in the paper collection, with a waste of less than 10%.

[0008] Typically compact displays such as those of interest for the present invention comprise at least one basic structure comprising in one piece, or glued together, at least one backrest and at least two sides, subsequently glued or fixed in any way suitable for the purpose of the shelves, such shelves may have, as in the cited prior art, fronts for the shelves so as not to drop the contents. In this version of known art there are tie rods to support the shelves, this product has the front of the shelves already mounted in a fixed vertical position with the disadvantage of increasing the size of the packaging for the transport of the display and therefore higher logistics costs of storage and shipping. Furthermore, disadvantageously, this device has a lower support base applied for mere aesthetic purpose, glued on the underside of the sides, with the appearance of a folded box and glued on the underside of the sides and simply includes four tabs to be folded for contact with the floor, it is made of lightweight material not giving support to the display, it does not have a supporting effect compared to the first shelf at the bottom as it is the same shelf on the contrary to help keep the base in position once assembled.

[0009] The base being also perforated on the upper side where the lower shelf rests only on the folded sides of the same that are of minimum support.

[0010] Furthermore, disadvantageously, for packaging the sides are folded back on themselves in the direction of height, so the box being bulky and the sides losing rigidity in assembly due to this fold.

[0011] Document KR 200 494 561 describes a display stand for displaying items for sale or promotional purposes, in particular a paper-based retractable automatic display unit. Its structure is composed of: a base serving as a rear panel during installation; two side panels foldable connected to the sides of the base, forming a symmetrical structure with respect to the base; a bottom panel, a rear panel and a side panel and a front panel, so that they can be folded flat, wherein the rear panel is fixed to the base and a part of the side panels is connected to the support panels, so as to form one or more supports; an elastic connected at one end to the left support panel and at the other end to the right support panel, so as to exert a force on the left and right support panels in the folding direction thereof; characterized in that, during the folding process of the support panels so as to form a right angle with respect to the base plate thanks to the elastic, the support opens.

[0012] In light of the above prior art, an object of the present invention is to describe a compact foldable display stand having a greater compactness of the pre-assembled display structure.

[0013] It is therefore still an object of the present invention to have a more compact final packaging in order to reduce logistics costs.

[0014] It is still an object of the present invention to have a more stable display structure when mounted.

[0015] It is a further object of the present invention to describe a compact display stand that can have any size.

[0016] It is a further object of the present invention to describe a compact display stand having improved bearing capacity.

[0017] It is still an object of the present invention to have a display stand with graphic continuity since they are often printed and used for advertising purposes.

[0018] BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION These and further objects will be achieved by the innovative folding display stand described by the present invention which comprises at least one rear surface structure comprising at least one backrest to which at least two sides are connected in a foldable manner, said sides being connected to one or more folding shelves, said shelves comprising fronts to contain the contents of said shelves and there are tie rods to support said shelves said display stand being characterized by further comprising fronts that are further foldable with respect to a bottom of said shelves, in particular, each shelf comprising at least one bottom to which a rear flap is connected to glue the shelf to the backrest and on the opposite side said shelf comprises a front F formed at least by a first and a second front surface, a front and a rear one that fold together, on the sides of the bottom of the shelf there are two lateral flaps which include further front flaps adapted to be fitted between said two front surfaces when assembled, this giving solidity to the entire shelf, on the lateral flap is formed a diagonal fold p14 that is arranged at 45 degrees with respect to the bottom, by implementing this fold or by folding the front panel according to this fold, the front panel F is folded to 90 degrees on the bottom of the shelf and also of the side flap, this allowing to close the front panel F on the shelf with consequent compaction of the display shelves in a "closed" phase ready for transport, with consequent savings on the overall size of the packaging, therefore on the space occupied by it in storage, transport and optimizing logistics in general.

[0019] It should be noted that the said shelf remains the same for the entire exhibitor, the said exhibitor being able to have any size and a number N of shelves.

[0020] In a preferred embodiment, the shelf when assembled as a bottom shelf of the display, becoming a base shelf that further includes a base cover body to cover the lower side of the display and give it support and stability, said base shelf in this case includes the same parts described for the shelf, such as a shelf bottom etc. and comprises on the lower side of said bottom a gluing surface to connect a base-covering body, said basecovering body comprises at least one front surface, said front surface includes on one side a short surface adapted to be glued under the shelf, on the opposite side a bottom for the base cover is included, on the two further sides of the front surface base tabs are included, the front surface folded according to folds P16 is positioned to cover the lower base of the display, hiding it and providing further support to it, the bottom of the base cover, folded according to fold p17 rests on the support surface of the display stand reinforcing the ground support of the sides and backrest of the same, the base cover also giving greater lift to the base shelf.

[0038] In fig.1 a the rear surface structure 4 of the innovative folding display stand 1 is therefore represented, said rear surface 4 comprises at least three elements, of which at least one backrest 2 and two sides 3 that are composed of a first part 3 "of the side that comprises two surfaces 6 with slots 8, connected to surfaces 6’ comprising lower closure flaps 7 and upper side closure flaps 10, the side is also composed of gluing sides 3’ - laterally connected to the two long sides of the backrest 1 , said sides 3’ comprising surfaces 5 comprising pockets 9 at the same height as the slots 8.

[0039] The top part of the backrest 2 comprises a rear closure flap 11 .

[0040] As can be seen in Figure 1 b, the rear surface structure 4 will be assembled as the sides 3 will be assembled by gluing the surface 6’ of both under the sides 3’ , in fact the pockets 9 of the surfaces 5 can be seen in the assembled rear structure phase. The lower closure flaps 7, once folded, will form base slots 35.

[0041] The gluing of the sides 3’ and surface 6’ giving greater support to the display.

[0042] Or in an alternative embodiment, the entire rear surface 4 is preferably made of the same material and the parts are connected to each other seamlessly (in a single sheet).

[0043] The rear structure 4, once assembled, therefore essentially appears as a flat sheet (for example of cardboard) that must be constructed through the folds shown below. By convention, the folds will be referred to hereinafter as p1...pn. Note that the folds will be pre-marked so as to be more simply executable as known in the art.

[0044] In this configuration of figure 1 b, a construction phase 1 is considered for the display stand.

[0045] It will be possible to provide the pre-assembled display stand ready for use, simply by unfold, or in a format ready to fold and be assembled.

[0046] To build it, we proceed with the folding phase of the first construction phase 1 , that is: pre-folding the sides 3 we will proceed according to folds p1 and p2 or the fold between the internal surface 6 and external surface 5 of the side 3 bringing the internal surface 6 of the side to overlap the internal surface 5, according to the direction A indicated in the figure. Subsequently, proceed with folds p3 and p4 by rotating 90 degrees according to the direction B indicated in the figure, the sides 3 with respect to the rear surface 4. The fold p5 is made according to the direction C with an angle of 180 degrees to bring the rear closure flap 1 1 on the rear or front surface, it is a purely aesthetic detail to allow a possible advertising sign to be housed in a slot 1 T.

[0047] The folds p6 and p7 instead carry the side closure flaps 10 on the external surface 5 of the side 3. The folds p8 and p9 close the side closure flap 10 on the internal surface of the side, the flap will be fixed here with glue. The backrest is then ready to be connected with the other parts of the folding display stand 1 .

[0048] Fig. 2a , 2b, 2c show the folding display stand 1 with rear structure 4 mounted and on which respective shelves 12 will be glued in shelf gluing areas 15.

[0049] Each single shelf 12 comprises a bottom 17 to which a flap 16 is connected to be glued on the gluing areas 15 provided on the backrest 2, for fixing the shelf to the backrest 2.

[0050] The shelf 12 still comprises on the opposite side of the flap 16 a front F comprising at least two front surfaces 18 and 19, of which a first front surface 18 being connected to the bottom 17 and the second front surface being connected to said first front surface 18.

[0051] The second front surface 19 further comprising at least two tabs 29, lateral flaps 20 are included on the sides of the bottom 17 of the shelf 12, front flaps 21 are further connected to the flaps 20. At least two slots 22 are included between the bottom 17 and the front F.

[0052] Between the flap 16 and the bottom 17 of the shelf 12 there is a fold p15 that will allow the entire shelf 12 to be folded down towards the backrest 2 or unfolded as described below.

[0053] To mount the front panel, the surface 19 will be folded with a rotation E of 180° according to the fold p1 1 in contact with the surface 18 of the front panel F of the shelf engaging the tabs 29 in the slots 22 of the shelf.

[0054] At the sides of the shelf 12 side flaps 20 are folded 90° in the direction F according to the fold p10, this to form the lateral containment of the shelf. At the same time, the front flap 21 of the shelf 12 is folded according to the fold p13 and is fitted between the first front surface 18 and the second front surface 19 of the shelf, this giving solidity to the entire shelf.

[0055] Subsequently, by applying the diagonal fold p14 present on the side flap 20 which is arranged 45 degrees with respect to the bottom, the lowering of the front F and of the same side flap 20 is obtained, which then rest on the bottom 17 of the shelf. This is completely advantageous, allowing the front F to be closed at 90 degrees on the shelf with consequent compaction of the display in the "closed" phase ready for transport, with consequent advantages for savings on packaging, space occupied and logistics costs in general, it is cancelled

[0056] Shelf 12 is used throughout the display stand, except as the last lower shelf.

[0057] Please note that depending on the size of the display, any number N12 of shelves may be present.

[0058] In particular, Figure 2c and 2d instead shows the last lower shelf 13 which differs from the other shelves 12 due to some particularly innovative features.

[0059] The lower shelf 13 in this case comprises the same parts described for the shelf 12, such as a shelf bottom 17 (such as the shelf 12) etc. and comprises on the lower side a gluing surface 24 for connecting a base cover 14.

[0060] The base cover 14 comprises at least one surface 25 that acts as a front, said surface

[0061] 25 is connected on a first side with a gluing surface 23, on the opposite side a bottom

[0062] 26 is comprised connected to said surface 25, on the two further sides of the surface 25 tabs 27 are comprised.

[0063] The base cover 14 is connected to the bottom shelf 13 by gluing the surface 23 onto the gluing surface 24 of the bottom shelf.

[0064] The lower shelf 13 retains the same functions and folds of the shelf 12 by adding the cover of the base of the display, i.e. the final part resting on the floor of the same.

[0065] The base cover 14 has the function of hiding the base of the display and reinforcing the ground support of the same and the entire structure of the display stand 1 .

[0066] To do this, the surface 25, following the fold p16, will be rotated by 90° in the direction F with respect to the bottom 17 of the shelf 13 (thus appearing vertical to the floor). The bottom 26 will then be folded over according to a fold p17 while tabs 27, connected to the surface 25, will fit into the base slots 35, making the entire base of the shelf stable.

[0067] In this way, advantageously more effects are obtained: the lower base of the display is hidden, but more importantly the display, also resting on the base cover 14 has a much greater stability, having 4 stable and robust support surfaces without adding bulk, thus having greater load-bearing capacity and stability.

[0068] In addition, the shelf 13 is also well supported by the base body 14. Note that this last phase of assembly of the base cover will only take place in the final phase of setting up the display, so this operation will not be carried out in the preassembly phase at the factory. (As clarified below by Figures 4 et seq.).

[0069] Therefore, Figures 2a,b,c show the assembly of the shelves 12,13 with the backrest 2 in a second construction phase 2.

[0070] In Fig.3a the extended rear surface 4 is visible, note how particularly advantageously the fronts thanks to the p14 fold are folded to 90 degrees on the flat bottom 17 of the shelf, making the device completely compact.

[0071] In figure 3a the compact display stand 1 is in the construction phase 3.

[0072] In fig. 3b, the details of tie rods 28 are visible, they are mounted in pre-assembly on the backrest 2, so as to remain positioned under the shelves 12,13.

[0073] Said tie rods 28 are also foldable structures according to the fold p20 and connected by means of the tie rod tabs 30 to the tie rod slots 8 included in the internal surface 6 of the side. The tie rods are positioned to stop and support the shelves 12 and 13 as they are positioned below them. It should be noted that such tie rods can be folded according to the folds p20 allowing the sides 3 to be able to be closed again to be advantageously packed and transported with minimum bulk.

[0074] The innovatively advantageous compact closed configuration is shown in Figure 4a.

[0075] The closed configuration in particular is obtained by closing the sides 3 towards the backrest 2 of the rear surface 4, an operation carried out thanks to the glues and folds described above (therefore according to fig. 1 ,2abc and 3).

[0076] In the closed configuration, the display stand is therefore extremely compact, especially thanks to the closability of the fronts F (best seen in fig.6 and 7).

[0077] The tie rods 28 are also adapted to block the opening of the sides beyond a 90 degree angle with respect to the rear surface 4 once they are mounted.

[0078] At this point the display stand 1 is assembled and ready to be folded for packaging and transport and is in a compact phase 4.

[0079] In fig.4b the "opening" phase - operational phase A - of the innovative folding display stand 1 , which we will define as the work phase, is clearly visible.

[0080] The open configuration is obtained by moving the sides 3 away from the backrest 2 (as shown by arrows in figure 4), with this movement the deployment of the tie rods 28 is determined (see figure 5) and space is left for the shelves 12,13 to be deployed outwards according to the fold p15 as in figure 2b.

[0081] Fig.5 shows, in detail, the opening of the tie rods 28 which, thanks to the fold p20, can allow the sides 3 to be approached and closed without interfering with the manoeuvre. The tie rods 28 are connected to the internal surface 6 of the side by means of the tie tabs 30 as already specified.

[0082] In fig. 6 the unfolding of a shelf 12 is visible after the sides 3 have been unfolded, the shelf 12 which in a first configuration construction phase 3 was substantially parallel to the backrest 2, in an operational phase B, unfolding as said according to the fold 15, will be brought orthogonal to it going to rest and support on the tie rod 28 below (here not visible because under the flat bottom 17). The shelf 12 has in particular the shelf front surface 18 and the shelf side flap 20 folded towards the bottom of the shelf 17.

[0083] In Fig. 7, the shelf 12 is still visible but with the shelf front surface 18 and the shelf side flap 20 unfolded, in said operating phase B, this operation is possible simply by pulling out the front F. The fold p14 will automatically determine the unfolding of the side flap 20 by opening the front F at 90 degrees with respect to the bottom 17.

[0084] In Fig.8 the final assembly - operational phase C - of the base cover 14 at the base of the display stand 1 is visible. The front surface 25 of the base cover 14 is lowered by fitting the fixing flaps 27 into the base slots 35, this operation makes the entire base of the display stable as well as creating an aesthetically pleasing base thanks to the base cover 14, hiding the base 40 of the display, the base cover reinforcing the entire structure and further locking the sides 3 in an open position. The assembly of the base cover advantageously having a quick coupling thanks to said slot 35 / tab 27 system.

[0085] In a further preferred embodiment, the backrest 2 can be further folded in two in the lengthwise direction, with it also the shelves can therefore be folded in half according to folds on the bottom 17.

[0086] Still, the fronts F of the shelves may have any development in height, without changing the dimensions of the display as they are advantageously foldable on the bottom 17 as described.

[0087] As already mentioned, any number of N12 shelves can be present depending on the customer's request and the size of the display stand.

[0088] Obviously, the assembly method described herein, thanks to the innovative embodiments introduced, is also the subject and protection of the present invention.

[0089] It is therefore evident that the innovative compact display stand 1 solves the aforementioned problems of prior art, variants in materials, dimensions of the same, number of shelves, depth, height, width of the display stand and anything else not inherent with the innovative characteristics of the same and the assembly method are to be considered protected by the present invention as better described in the appended claims.

The method of assembling, closing and installing the display (1 ) as per the preceding claim, wherein said operational phases, to obtain an open configuration, comprise at least: operational phase A: it is obtained by moving the sides (3) away from the backrest (2), as shown by arrows, with this movement the deployment of the tie rods (28) is determined, leaving space for the shelves (12,13) to be deployed outwards according to the fold (p15); the tie rods (28) thanks to the fold (p20) can allow the sides (3) to be approached and closed without interfering with the manoeuvre; and in operational phase B in particular: the said shelves (12,13) unfolding as said according to the fold (15), will be orthogonal to the backrest going to rest and support themselves on the tie rod (28) below, the shelf (12,13) in particular has the shelf front surface (18) and the shelf lateral flap (20) folded towards the bottom of the shelf (17), the lateral flap (20) pulling the front panel (F) outwards, the fold p14 will automatically determine the unfolding of thelateral flap (20) by opening the front panel F at 90 degrees to the bottom (17); and in the final operational phase C: the base cover (14) is deployed with respect to the base (40) of the display (1 ), the surface (25), following the fold (p16) will be rotated by 90° in direction F with respect to the bottom (17) of the shelf 13 (therefore appearing vertical to the floor), the bottom (26) will then be folded onto it according to a fold (p17) while tabs (27), connected to the surface (25), will fit into the base slots (35), this making the entire base of the shelf stable; the display, also resting on the base cover (14) has a much greater stability, having 4 stable and robust support surfaces without adding bulk, thus having greater load-bearing capacity and stability, in addition, the shelf (13) is also well supported by the base body (14). this operation makes the entire base (40) of the display stable as well as creating an aesthetically pleasing base thanks to the base cover (14), hiding the base (40) of the display, the base cover reinforcing the entire structure and further locking the sides (3) in an open position, the assembly of the base cover (14) having a quick coupling thanks to said system (slot (35) / tab (27)).
