On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 7B, when the shelf plate 21 slides forward, the shelf plate 21 is disengaged from the holding member 25, and the shelf plate 21 can be removed.

By the way, in the shelf device for a showcase according to the first embodiment, since the diagonally inclined shelf plate 21 is slid horizontally by the connecting member 23, when the shelf plate 21 is slid forward. The inclination angle of the shelf plate 21 gradually becomes gentle. Along with this, the facing distance between the holding piece 211b of the holding member 211 and the guide piece 223b of the shelf guide plate 223 changes (the facing distance becomes smaller as the shelf board 21 moves forward). Therefore, the holding piece 211b is not attached to the shelf guide plate 2
The holding piece 211b and the guide piece 223 so as not to hit 23.
The facing distance with b is designed with some margin.

However, since the allowance is provided, backlash easily occurs between the holding piece 211b and the guide piece 223b, and the shelf plate 21 does not come off when an impact is applied from the outside, but the shelf plate 21 is not removed. It vibrates greatly up and down, and shelf 21
The product A may drop from the product.

In the present embodiment, the holding member 25 is the shelf holder 2
2 only temporarily holds the shelf 21 on the shelf 2.
Since it does not participate in the movement of the first item in the front-rear direction, the drawbacks of the shelf device for the showcase according to the first embodiment are solved.

In the first embodiment, the holding member 211 and the shelf guide plate 2 are used as the protrusion preventing member for the shelf plate 21.
23, and the holding member 25 is used in the second embodiment, the holding member 211 and the shelf guide member 22 are used.
It goes without saying that it may be a shelf device provided with all of 3 and the sandwiching member 25. Further, the shelf plate 21 may be one on which a product for cooling is placed, or may be a hot plate with a built-in heater.

[0040]
