  • Patent number: 5961082
    Abstract: A goods support bar assembly includes a socket and a support bar that can be easily inserted and removed from the socket. The socket includes a housing with a window-like insertion opening and internally located buffer edges. The support bar includes a slip-in plate which is attached to a tubular piece. By tilting the slip-in plate relative to the socket, the slip-in plate can be inserted through the insertion opening and into the housing, where the buffer edges hold the support bar in position.

  • Patent number: 5044508
    Abstract: Goods presentation system having slide devices which are displaceable in a longitudinal direction in a C-section rail (1, 1.1) and which can be engaged on predetermined support points (10), for the mounting of support devices to accommodate goods. These slide devices are designed as control locks (3) which can be pushed into the internal space of the section from the front through the section opening and which contain locking jaws (9) which are mounted transversely displaceably in a lock housing (8). The locking jaws (9) can optionally be displaced from an extended locking position, in which they project beyond the lateral walls (8.1) of the housing and in conjunction with the support points (10) establish engagement points for the support devices, into a running position, in which the lock housing (8) is freely displaceable in the C-rail (1, 1.1).The control lock is provided with a cover plate, the front surface (11) of which is intended to receive the support devices.

  • Patent number: 5038012
    Abstract: A method for electroerosive machining of metal workpieces and related apparatus. The erosion head of an electroerosive machining apparatus is moved with a blank clamped in it to a machining device for machining the blank with a machine tool held in the machining device, preferably a rotating milling tool the erosin head, and moves the blank for machining relative to machine tool as directed by a control computer. The machining device is located below the erosion head, with a vertical or horizontal axis of rotation, the electrode, following its manufacture, form the blank, is moved while still held by the erosion head to the electroerosive machining apparatus. Alternatively, an additional clamping device can be provided constructed like the erosion head for holding an electrode blank for machining by the machining device, while a workpiece is machined by electroerosion using an electrode held by the erosion head.

  • Patent number: 4936471
    Abstract: The carrying apparatus for merchandise display elements is made up of substantially free-standing columns (2) with supporting bars (4) detachably fixed between neighboring columns. The said supporting bars are suspended by means of coupling devices at both their ends in coupling rings (3) of the columns (2) and contain along their surface openings (5) for receiving carrying members (6), in the form of coat hanger carriers (7, 7,') or shelf carriers (8, 8') etc., supporting the merchandise display elements.The columns (2) and the supporting bars (4) can be used to set up on the modular principle carrying apparatuses made in linear form, interrupted in any way, or with supporting bars extending in stellar form from a central columns (sic) (2).

  • Patent number: 4890749
    Abstract: To decoratively present matching articles of clothing (11; 21-25), a clothes stand is proposed in which column members (1, 1.1', 1.1"), of a multicolumn stand consist of tubular columns (1) connected by cross-pieces (13, 14', 14") to form column pairs (1.1). The upper ends of the tubular columns (1) are provided with end members, mechanically strengthening their end areas, in such a way that these areas and the cross pieces (13, 14', 14") form coupling areas for mounting the attachment elements (9, 15-17, 19, 20) for the articles of clothing to be presented.

  • Patent number: 4881708
    Abstract: The shelf is constructed, so that it can easily be dismantled, from a frame which can be suspended on a supporting device (1) and which consists of a pair of lateral brackets (3, 3') and of a front and a rear longitudinal member (4, 5), and from a resting surface releasable from the frame. The brackets and longitudinal members are connected to one another, to form a torsion-resistant constructional part, and can be equipped with selectively usable resting surfaces, to make it possible to satisfy changing requirements as regards the display of articles at a very low outlay in terms of assembly time, stockkeeping and investment.

  • Patent number: 4865402
    Abstract: The merchandise display showcase composed of standard parts and having a base part (1, 2), corner columns (3) and glass walls (8) is equipped, between the base part and a cover plate (7), with a crossmember element (4) for stabilizing the corner columns (3). The corner columns (3) composed of a core tube and of a sectional guide bar surrounding this for the mounting of the glass walls (8) are fastened, at the bottom, at prepositioned assembly locations in the base part (1, 2) and carry, on their top side, a plate-shaped cover means (7) interconnected releasably via a connecting element present partially on the core tube and partially on a cover plate.
