Abstract
The invention relates to a modular structure for a cardboard tower-like display, made up of shelf modules (a) each of which is made up of a cardboard sheet with a four-sided central area (10) whose corners form incoming vertexes (12) and whose sides are folding and flapping lines with respective flaps thereof; together with straight tubes which feature stud modules (b), with the same cross section than the perimeter tubular edges (11) of each shelf module (a), and connecting elements in the shape of corner studs (c), each of which has a central part (30) with arms (31), (32) and (33) projected into three orthogonal spatial directions which fit into the concurrent ends of the tubular edges (11) of each shelf module (a), and the ends corresponding to the tubes which constitute the stud modules (b).
Claims6
A formable sheet for forming a modular structure for a cardboard tower-like display, said structure formed of horizontally separated double-walled shelves and corner columns and when formed into said structure providing vertical support by being a support structure with said columns contactable with a floor and supporting said structure including shelves, comprising:
- shelf modules having
- a four-sided central area, wherein corners form incoming vertexes and sides include fold lines linked to respective flaps,
- said flaps having first sections with consecutive parallel fold lines which includes capability of forming projected tubular edges and second sections each usable to form a wall with a surface equal to a central part of the sheet, each flap having reciprocal anchoring elements with said central part of the sheet;
- straight tubes comprising stud modules for forming a part of each column with the same cross-section as said tubular edges;
- and
- hub-shaped connecting elements, each comprising a central part with arms, each projected into three spatial orthogonal directions to fit an end of said tubular edges and an end of a tube,
- wherein said formable sheet is transportable in sheet form so as to facilitate transport.
