Device for Displaying Articles

Abstract

The invention relates to the device for displaying articles, comprising a mounting ( 2 ) which has an internal cavity ( 25 ) with a cavity opening ( 250 ) and which is intended for fixing on a supporting structure ( 9 ). The device also comprises a primary support ( 3 ) which has an end piece ( 30 ) that is designed complementary to the cavity ( 25 ) and which is intended to be hooked into the mounting ( 2 ) in the cavity ( 25 ) in a stationary manner with the end piece ( 30 ) inserted through the cavity opening ( 250 ). The configuration of the end piece ( 30 ) on the primary support ( 3 ) and of the cavity ( 25 ) in the mounting ( 2 ) requires that the end piece ( 30 ) is inserted into the cavity opening ( 250 ) in an end piece ( 30 ) position that is inclined relative to the horizontal with the free end of the end piece ( 30 ) being lowered. When the intended hooked end position between the primary support ( 3 ) and the mounting ( 2 ) is achieved, the end piece ( 30 ) is inserted into the cavity ( 25 ) to the maximum depth. When fixed on the supporting structure ( 9 ) as intended, the cavity ( 25 ) rises from the cavity opening ( 250 ) in relation to the horizontal. The mounting ( 2 ) is fixed on the supporting structure ( 9 ) by inserting said mounting into a recess ( 92 ) on the supporting structure ( 9 ). The mounting ( 2 ) is a single piece and consists of a neck ( 20 ) that surrounds the cavity opening ( 250 ), a body ( 21 ) that extends axially and comprises a front shoulder ( 26 ) to which the neck ( 20 ) is joined, said neck having a smaller outer dimension, a floor ( 23 ) that forms the free end of the body ( 21 ) and lies diametrically opposite the neck ( 20 ), and a clamping contour ( 24 ) that lies on the outer casing of the body ( 21 ). The mounting ( 2 ) further has a widened portion ( 22 ) that runs axially along the upper face of the body ( 21 ).

1 . A device for displaying articles, including:
 a) a holder ( 2 ), wherein said holder:   aa) has an internal cavity ( 25 ) with a cavity mouth ( 250 ); and   ab) is intended for fastening on a carrying structure ( 9 ); and   b) a primary carrier ( 3 ), wherein said primary carrier:   ba) has an end piece ( 30 ) which is realized so as to be complementary to the cavity ( 25 ); and   bb) is intended to be introduced by way of the end piece ( 30 ) through the cavity mouth ( 250 ) resting in the cavity ( 25 ) so as to be suspended in the holder ( 2 );   c) the configuration of the end piece ( 30 ) on the primary carrier ( 3 ) and of the cavity ( 25 ) in the holder ( 2 ) and the insertion of the end piece ( 30 ) into the cavity mouth ( 250 ) require the end piece ( 30 ) to be in a position inclined in relation to the horizontal with the free end of the end piece ( 30 ) lowered; and   d) when the correct suspended end position is achieved between the primary carrier ( 3 ) and the holder ( 2 ), the end piece ( 30 ) is pushed into the cavity ( 25 ) to a maximum depth, characterized in that   e) when the correct fastening on the carrying structure ( 9 ) is achieved, the cavity ( 25 ) ascends from the cavity mouth ( 250 ) thereof in relation to the horizontal.
