A frame for supporting a panel of a display cabinet or counter for show-casing and selling food and non-food products. A fixing mechanism of a retaining element within a section of a frame of said display cabinet or counter advantageously allows a quick assembly/disassembly and a robust and safe support for the retaining element.

A frame for supporting and moving one or more panels of a display cabinet or counter for show-casing and selling food and non-food products. A support and movement system allows the front openingwith variable geometryof a panel of said display cabinet or counter through a single kinematic mechanism, regardless of the type of glass used.

A showcase for preservation and display of objects is described. The showcase has a fixed casing and at least one openable panel made of glass mounted on the fixed casing through opening supports, which have a pair of upper rods and a pair of lower rods, all having the same length as each other, pivoted to the fixed casing at respective first upper and lower rod pins, and an intermediate structure, pivoted to the upper and lower rods at respective second upper and lower rod pins. A hinging system is provided along the main direction, between the openable panel and the intermediate structure, so as to allow the openable panel to rotate with respect to the intermediate structure. The opening is divided substantially into two steps, with a first roto-translational movement of the intermediate structure and with it of the openable panel with respect to the case, and a second step, in which the hinging system is used to allow the openable panel to rotate with respect to the intermediate structure, until a completely open position is reached.

Embodiments of an adjustable panel assembly are disclosed. According to one embodiment, at least one adjustable articulating arm assembly connects a support elements having a plurality of equal sized side apertures to adjustable panel ends, providing an adjustable panel assembly with pivot hinges to rotate the adjustable panel about a common longitudinal axis for paired pivot hinges. Fixed top and side panels may be provided for each pair of corresponding support elements. Adjustable modular lighting and heating elements may be adapted between corresponding support elements to provide light or heat to a surface area below or within the panel assembly. The adjustable panel assembly components can be disassembled and/or collapsed into substantially flat shipping containers for ease of distribution and portability.

A food shield has shield panels that are location adjustable and angularly adjustable in respect of support structures (posts) that are coupled to a mounting surface, such as a surface of a buffet table or cart. For location adjustment of a shield panel along length of a post, a bracket assembly includes outer and inner collar portions, a grip element positioned between the outer and inner collar portions, and a tightening element that tightens the connection of the assembled collar against support posts. For angular adjustment, each bracket assembly includes an indexing base, a rotatable arm assembly with an indexing hub, and a removable or retractable coupling element. Side panels are mounted to the same posts as the shield panels with removable clamps that engage exterior surfaces of the posts. The removable clamps have multiple parts that are variously inverted for joining the clamps to posts at different orientations.

A controllable front door opening structure for a double-door display case includes a case body, where a front side of the case body is rotatably connected to a front door; an inner side of the front door is connected to a limiting member; the limiting member rotates synchronously with the front door; a locking member is provided in the case body; the locking member limits rotation of the limiting member; and the locking member translates or rotates to unlock the limiting member. By controlling the locking member at a rear door of the case body to move forward and backward or to rotate, the front door is locked or unlocked.
