<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a showcase making it possible to ensure the sufficient volumetric capacity of a transparent showcase and to make the interior of the transparent showcase easily viewable and yet reliably close an opening in the same with a transparent door for a long time. <P>SOLUTION: A drive mechanism 6 for driving the transparent door 3 is placed in the base 4 located under the transparent case 2. The drive mechanism 6 includes: a pair of arms 8, 9 that are swung with the position of their intersection used as the fulcrum; opening/closing operation portions 10, 11 coupled to the lower ends of the respective arms 8, 9; a pair of racks 12, 13 fixed on the respective opening/closing operation portions 10, 11; a pinion 14 engaged with both the racks 12, 13; and a motor 27 that drives the pinion 14. Slide portions 17, 18 anchored to a swing guide rail 16 provided on the transparent door 3 are provided at the upper ends of the respective arms 8, 9. When the pinion 14 is driven by the motor 27 to bring the opening/closing operation portions 10, 11 close to each other, the transparent door 3 is moved up. When the opening/closing operation portions 10, 11 are brought away from each other, the transparent door 3 is moved down into the base 4. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
