Abstract
A modular display stand for holding a plurality of lighting products is disclosed. The modular display stand is constructed from a plurality of modular units, each modular unit having two panels joined at a common edge to form a V-shape. The panel includes apertures for mounting the lighting products and a power strip for supplying electricity to the lighting products. The modular units are arranged so that one panel of a modular unit overlaps the panel of a second modular unit, wherein the overlapping panels are joined by a fastener. This arrangement is repeated so that the joined, complementary panels extend radially. Each modular unit can optionally be connected end-to-end or mounted against a wall, floor, or ceiling.
Claims21
A modular display stand for holding a plurality of lighting products comprising:
- a first modular unit having at least two panels joined by a hinge to form a V shape;
- a second modular unit having at least two panels joined by a hinge to form a V shape, wherein at least one of the panels of the first modular unit overlaps one of the panels of the second modular unit to form a compartment;
- an aperture formed in one of the panels for mounting the lighting products;
- a fastener joining the overlapping panels;
- and
- a power source disposed on the first modular unit, connected to the lighting products.
A modular lighting fixture display stand for displaying a lighting product comprising:
- at least two modular units, each including two panels having an outer edge and an inner edge wherein the inner edges of the two panels are hinged together, and wherein at least the two modular units are joined so that one pair of the panels overlap to form a compartment;
- a fastener interconnecting the overlapping panels;
- an aperture located in one of the panel, wherein the lighting product is mounted to the aperture;
- and
- a power source, disposed on one of the panels, connected to the lighting product.
A lighting product display stand comprising:
- a plurality of outward extending wings, each wing comprising a pair of complementary, overlying panels forming compartments;
- at least one fastener interconnecting the pair of complementary, overlying panels;
- a hinge pivotally connecting two adjacent panels that are not overlying;
- an aperture located in one of the panels, wherein the lighting product is mounted to the aperture;
- and
- a power source disposed on a panel within at least one compartment, connected to the lighting product.
