Refrigerated display case with ice cream containers made of transparent material

Abstract

The present invention relates to a refrigerated display case of the type comprising a bearing base and a top glass compartment with an intermediate wall provided with a series of openings, designed to receive from up downwards corresponding ice cream containers made of transparent materials, characterised by the fact that each transparent container is externally provided with projections situated at a height lower than the opening, in such a way to prevent the containers from being completely inserted from up down inside the corresponding opening obtained on the bearing base.

1 . Refrigerated display case of the type comprising ice cream containers ( 4 ), a bearing base ( 1 ) and a top glass compartment ( 2 ), with an intermediate wall ( 3 ) provided with a series of openings ( 3   a ) designed to receive from up downwards the corresponding ice cream containers ( 4 ) with rectangular shape, characterised by the fact that:
 said containers ( 4 ) are made of transparent materials,   each transparent container ( 4 ) is externally provided with projections ( 5 ) situated at a height lower than the opening ( 40 ) of the container ( 4 ) designed to interfere with the surface of the wall ( 3 ) all around the opening ( 3   a ) that receives the corresponding container ( 4 ) when the container ( 4 ) is inserted from up downwards towards the same opening ( 3   a ), and   the projections ( 5 ) provided on each container ( 4 ) are positioned at a distance from the opening ( 40 ) of the container ( 4 ) that tends to increase from the back transversal wall ( 4   b ) to the front transversal wall ( 4   a ) of the container ( 4 ).   
   
   
       2 . Refrigerated display case as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised by the fact that the wall ( 3 ) provided in intermediate position between the base ( 1 ) and the glass compartment ( 2 ) has a forward inclination. 
   
   
       3 . Refrigerated display case as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised by the fact that the projections provided on each container ( 4 ) consist in a downward perimeter border ( 5 ) that has a slightly lower height than the back transversal border ( 4   a ) of the corresponding container ( 4 ) in the front transversal section ( 5   a ) and a considerably lower height in the back transversal section ( 5   b ); it being provided that the two transversal sections ( 5   a,    5   b ) of the external perimeter border ( 5 ) are connected by means of two identical opposite longitudinal sections ( 5   c ). 
   
   
       4 . Refrigerated display case as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised by the fact that the external projections ( 5 ) provided on each container ( 4 ) consist in a series of feet that protrude downwards from the opening ( 40 ) of the container ( 4 ). 
   
   
       5 . Refrigerated display case as claimed in, characterised by the fact that the external projections ( 5 ) provided on each container ( 4 ) consist in a perimeter series of teeth. 
   
   
       6 . Refrigerated display case as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised by the fact that the external projections ( 5 ) provided on each container ( 4 ) consist in an annular rib. 
   
   
       7 . Refrigerated display case as claimed in  claim 1 , characterised by the fact that each transparent container ( 4 ) has an increasing depth from the back to the front.
