Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0001] 1. Field of the Invention
[0002] The present invention relates to a display rack, and more
particularly to a display rack that can be hooked to a
predetermined position.
[0003] 2. Description of the Prior Art
[0004] Most of the existing display racks used in the shops or
retail outlets are in the form of a heavy and large assembly that
consisted of several display racks, so that the display rack
assembly is difficult to be moved and usually fixed at a fixed
location due to its heavy weight and large size. Furthermore,
putting the goods on the display rack assembly or removing them
from it needs to be done manually, so it is a hard work for the
user.
[0005] The present invention has arisen to mitigate and/or obviate
the afore-described disadvantages of the conventional display
rack.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0006] The primary objective of the present invention is to provide
a display rack, wherein the display rack can be moved or placed
easily, and the time for putting the products on the shelves can be
reduced.
[0007] A display rack provided in accordance with the present
invention comprises
[0008] a base is made of metal lines and provided for displaying
products;
[0009] at least a partition is made of metal lines and fixed on the
base for dividing the base into a plurality of receiving
spaces;
[0010] a bottom board slantingly arranged at a bottom of the base
for supporting the products; and
[0011] at least a hook arranged on a rear side of the base for
hooking the base to a predetermined position.
[0012] The present invention will become more obvious from the
following description when taken in connection with the
accompanying drawings, which show, for purpose of illustrations
only, the preferred embodiments in accordance with the present
invention.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0013] FIG. 1 is a perspective view of showing a display rack in
accordance with the present invention;
[0014] FIG. 2 is an illustrative view of showing that cylindrical
products are being stored and displayed in the display rack of the
present invention;
[0015] FIG. 3 is an operational view of showing how to take the
products out of the display rack;
[0016] FIG. 4 shows that the hooks are formed on the limiters;
and
[0017] FIG. 5 in an operational view of showing that a plurality of
display racks are being placed on top of one another.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0018] Referring to FIG. 1, which is a perspective view of showing
a display rack in accordance with a first embodiment of the present
invention, wherein the display rack comprises a base 1, at least a
partition 2 (there are 8 partitions in this embodiment for
example), a bottom board 3, and at least a hook 4 (there are two
hooks 4 in this embodiments).
[0019] The base 1 is made of metal lines (such as iron lines) and
is provided for displaying products. As shown in this embodiment,
around the periphery of the base 1 are arranged a plurality of
limiters 11 located at different heights, thus confining the
products within the base 1 of the display rack.
[0020] The partition 2 is made of metal lines (such as iron lines),
and the eight partitions 2 in this embodiment are fixed on the base
1, so as to divide the base 1 into a plurality of receiving spaces
21 for accommodation of products.
[0021] The bottom board 3 is slantingly arranged at the bottom of
the base 1 for supporting the products. In each corner of the base
1 is arranged a supporting member 12, or the supporting members 12
can be located at the junctions of the limiters 11, for supporting
the bottom board 3 and preventing it from sliding downward.
[0022] The hooks 4 are arranged on the rear side of the base 1 for
hooking the base 1 to a predetermined position. It is to be noted
that, for the purpose of easy manufacture, the hooks 4 can be
integrally formed at an end of the limiters 11 at both sides of the
base 1 (as shown in FIG. 1), or can be located at an appropriate
position on the limiter 11 that is located at the rear side of the
base 1 (as shown in FIG. 4).
[0023] Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, which are an illustrative view
of showing that cylindrical products are being stored and displayed
in the display rack of the present invention, and an operational
view of showing how to take the products out of the display rack.
As shown in the Figures, the cylindrical products 5 are arranged in
the base 1 and are separated by the partitions 2 and are loaded on
the bottom board 3. Since the bottom board 3 is slantingly
arranged, the cylindrical products 5 will roll automatically along
the slope of bottom board 3 toward the lowest position of the
bottom board 3, and will then be stopped within the base 1 by the
limiters 11. When the outmost cylindrical product 5 is taken out,
the neighboring cylindrical product 5 in the receiving spaces 21
will roll automatically along the slope of bottom board 3 toward
the lowest position of the bottom board 3, replacing the position
of the previous cylindrical product 5 that has been taken out.
Therefore, it is very convenient for the user to take out the
products.
[0024] According to the display rack of the present invention, the
base 1 of which is made of metal lines, and on the rear side of the
base 1 are provided hooks 4 that can hook the base 1 to the
predetermined position easily. Therefore, the display rack can be
moved or placed easily, and the time for putting the products on
the shelves will be reduced.
[0025] As shown in FIG. 5, a plurality of display racks in
accordance with the present invention can be placed on top of one
another, thus increasing the number of products 5 synchronously
displayed on the display racks, and speeding up the time for
putting the products on the shelves will be reduced.
[0026] While we have shown and described various embodiments in
accordance with the present invention, it should be clear to those
skilled in the art that further embodiments may be made without
departing from the scope of the present invention.
