In FIG. 8, the locking device 30 is fixed to the receiving holder 40. FIG. 9 illustrates a state before the locking device 30 is mounted on the receiving holder 40 or a state in which the mounted locking device 30 is separated from the receiving holder 40.
A tool insertion hole 37 may be formed in the frame 34 of the locking device 30 so that a tool 80 is inserted into the tool insertion hole 37 and can move the locking device 30 up and down. The tool insertion hole 37 is arranged at a position corresponding to the tool insertion hole 27 formed in the side surface of the electronic shelf label body 20 when the protrusion 32 protrudes out from the electronic shelf label body 20.
The tool insertion hole 27 of the electronic shelf label body 20 and the tool insertion hole 37 of the locking device 30 may have the same shape. A head 85 of the Page ILl tool 80 having the same shape as the tool insertion holes 27 and 37 is inserted into the tool insertion holes 27 and 37.
Here, a vertical protrusion 87 may be formed on one side of the head 85 of the tool 80, and the protrusion 87 may come into contact with the transfer protrusion 35 formed on the frame of the locking device 30.
When the tool 80 is rotated, the transfer protrusion 35 in contact with the protrusion 87 performs a vertical translation.
In particular, the protrusion 87 makes contact with an upper part of the transfer protrusion 35. When the tool 80 is rotated counterclockwise, the protrusion 87 of the tool 80 presses the transfer protrusion 35. At this time, the protrusion 32, formed on the upper part of the frame 34, is pressed down into the protrusion movement hole 23 formed in the upper surface of the electronic shelf label body 20.
When the tool 80 is rotated clockwise, the transfer protrusion 35 is moved upward along the protrusion 87 of the tool 80 by the spring 38 provided under the frame 34. The protrusion 32, formed on the upper part of the frame 34, is then moved outside the electronic shelf label body 20 through the protrusion movement hole 23 formed in the upper surface of the electronic shelf label body 20.
FIGS. 1OA and lOB are schematic perspective views illustrating a fixer according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention.
Fixers 60, shown in FIGS. 1OA and lOB, are similar to each other in that they each have a double plate structure. The fixer 60, shown in FIG. IOA, only has hinge holes 62 formed therein. The fixer 60, shown in FIG. lOB, has separation prevention holes 64 as well as hinge holes 62.
The fixer connecting leg 52 of the hanger 50 is hinge-connected to the hinge holes 62 of the fixer 60, shown in FIG. bA. The electronic shelf label body 20 to be Page 12 connected to the fixer 60 may make contact with the product connecting leg 54 of the hanger 50 and be supported.
Meanwhile, when the fixer connecting leg 52 of the hanger 50 is hinge-connected to the hinge holes 62 of the fixer 60, shown in FIG. lOB, the electronic shelf label body 20 to be connected to the fixer 60 may be supported without making contact with the product connecting leg 54 of the hanger 50.
That is, extensions 66 are formed to provide the hinge holes 62 and the separation prevention holes 64, which do not make contact with the product connecting leg 54. On the other hand, a lower plate of the fixer 60 having a double plate structure, such as the separation prevention holes 64, is inclined in a direction of the extensions, thereby preventing the electronic shelf label body 20 from tilting backwards.
As set forth above, according to exemplary embodiments of the invention, in an electronic shelf label assembly, an electronic shelf label body is locked into a receiving holder fixed to a hanger, thereby preventing theft.
Furthermore, a fixer has a double plate structure and includes a hinge hole and a separation preventing hole separated from the hinge hole by a predetermined distance and having an inclined lower plate, so that the electronic shelf label body can easily rotate and the fixer can be prevented from being separated from a hanger.
While the present invention has been shown and described in connection with the exemplary embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that modifications and variations can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
