SHOWCASE-CONTAINER Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: agricultural engineering. SUBSTANCE: showcase-container comprises a hollow cylindrical base, a post with external and internal threaded ends, a counterweight, a conical post point, a bracket for labels with explications. The hollow cylindrical base is made as a corrugated wall with an upper flanged edge, narrowing into the cylinder with auxiliary holes on the flat portion of flanged edge and a shaped bottom, concave in the center. The concave surface of the shaped bottom has a round central hole with three square holes on the periphery. The concavity is directed into the cylinder. The peripheral flat portion of the shaped bottom in the internal cavity has niches closed by the plugs of the cylindrical base, and cylindrical hollows with holes in the bottom. The external flat surface of the shaped bottom has equispaced hemispherical stops. The post is secured in the central round hole by the concavity of the hollow cylindrical base. The counterweight has the form of a disc or flat ring positioned on the back side of the convexity, and secured with countersunk-head bolts in the square holes on the peripheral portion of the convexity of the shaped bottom. The threaded extension of the conical point of the post is installed in the internal threaded sleeve in the upper part of the post. The labelling bracket with explications is fastened by a countersunk-head bolt in one of the auxiliary holes in the flanged edge of the corrugated wall of the hollow cylindrical base. The showcase container can be adapted for transportation and storage of an exhibit by means of an additional hollow cylindrical base positioned on the upper part of the post. The posts are installed with a provision for extending their length by means of a threaded adapter and a connecting threaded sleeve. Semicircular grooves on the external corrugated wall of each hollow cylindrical base have a rubber braid for fixing the packing material of each exhibit. EFFECT: improved design. 10 dwg
