Shelf Illumination Device

A shelf illumination device (1) for illuminating a shelf board of a shelving system, comprising:

• a device for mounting the shelf illumination device (1) on a component, in particular on a shelf board (2) of the shelving system;
• an illumination support (3);
• an illumination unit (4) with a plurality of light sources, wherein the illumination unit (4) is attached on the illumination support (3) so as to be able to illuminate at least one of the shelf boards of the shelving system during operation;
• and
• an at least partially transparent label holder (5) which is adapted to receive at least one label, a shelf marking and the like,
• the shelf illumination device (1) comprises at least one light guide (6) which at least in sections extends between the illumination support (3) and the label support (5) and which is constructed and arranged so that a portion of the light emitted by the illumination unit (4) can be coupled into the light guide (6) during the operation and can propagate in the light guide (6) so as to be able to at least partially backlight the label holder (5), whereas the remaining portion of the light emitted by the illumination unit (4) can illuminate the shelf board.
