A device for displaying information, such as advertising, text, pictures or the like, comprising a wholly or partly transparent front plate (1) having an at least partly curved or bent cross section between a pair of essentially parallel side edges, and having first and second abutment members (4, 5
A device for displaying information, such as advertising, text, pictures or the like, comprising a wholly or partly transparent front plate (1) having an at least partly curved or bent cross section between a pair of essentially parallel side edges, and having first and second abutment members (4, 5) arranged along respective ones of the parallel edges at the concave side of the front plate (1), for retaining a display plate (6) in a fixed, curved condition between the abutment members, and a supporting means (30) for support of the front plate (1). The abutment members are gripping edges (4, 5) constituted by folded side edge portions of the front plate (1), and the supporting means consists of a support element (30) of a resilient material having opposite end portions (31, 32) shaped for releasable engagement with the gripping edges (4, 5) of the front plate (1), the element being arranged for resilient snap-in of the end portions (31, 32) to engagement with the gripping edges (4, 5) of the front plate (1).

1. A device for displaying information, comprising a wholly or partly transparent front plate ( 1;16) having at least a partly curved or bent cross-section between a pair of essentially parallel first edges (2,3), and having first and second abutment members (4,5;17,18) arranged along respective ess
1. A device for displaying information, comprising a wholly or partly transparent front plate ( 1;16) having at least a partly curved or bent cross-section between a pair of essentially parallel first edges (2,3), and having first and second abutment members (4,5;17,18) arranged along respective essentially parallel second edges (2,3) on the concave side of the front plate (1,16), for retaining at least one flexible display sheet (6) of suitable size and rigidity to be snapped into a fixed, curved relationship with the front plate between the abutment members; and a supporting means (19;30;33;41) for supporting the front plate (1;16) against a supporting surface, (27); wherein the abutment members are gripping edges for each display sheet ( 4,5;17,18), and wherein the supporting means consists of a support element (19;30;33;39-41;44-48) of a resilient material having opposite end portions (20,21;31,32;37,38;42,43) that are shaped for releasable engagement with the gripping edges (4,5;17,18) of the front plate (1;16), the support element being shaped for resilient snap-in of its end portions into engagement with the gripping edges of the front plate, and for support of the front plate (1;16) by an intermediate support portion of the support element between the end portions of the support element that is bent outwards and away from the concave side of the front plate.2. A device according to claim 1, wherein the front plate (16) is generally uniformly curved in a region between the gripping edges (17,18), and wherein at a distance from at least one of the gripping edges the front plate (16) has a bent portion (22 resp.23) so that, in the region between the bent portion and the gripping edges (17 resp.18), there is formed a pocket (24 resp.25) for receipt of a larger or smaller part of the relevant edge portion of a display sheet (26) that is to be fixed between the gripping edges (17,18).3. A device according to claim 1, wherein the front plate (7;9;12) is angularly bent at one or more places (8 resp.10,11 resp.13,14,15) parallel with the gripping edges (4,5), for achieving the bent cross-section.4. A device according to one of the claims 1-3, wherein the support element consists of a resilient metal wire (19) that is bent to a general U-shape between the end portions (20,21).5. A device according to claim 4, wherein the gripping edges (17,18) of the front plate (16) are provided with at least one pair of opposite notches (28,29) for receiving and retaining the end portions (20,21) of the metal wire (19).6. A device according to one of the claims 1-3, wherein the support element (30;33;41;44-48) consists of a plate-shaped element and wherein the opposite end portions are mutually parallel end edge portions (31,32;37,38;42,43) that are adapted for engagement with the gripping edges (4,5) of the front plate (1).7. A device according to claim 6, wherein the plate-shaped element (30;33;41;44-47) has a width that is substantially less than the width of the front plate (1) in the direction along the gripping edges (4,5).8. A device according to claim 6, wherein the plate-shaped element (48) has a width corresponding to the width of the front plate (1) in the direction along the gripping edges (4,5).9. A device according to claim 8, wherein at each end of the opposite side edges of the front plate (1) and the plate-shaped element (48) that are not in engagement with each other, there is placed an end cover (51) for the provision of a closed space (52) defined by the front plate (1), the plate-shaped element (48) and the end covers (51).10. A device according to claim 9, wherein in the closed space (52), there is placed a light source (53) for background illumination of an information sheet (6) retained by the front plate (1).11. A device according to claim 6, wherein the support element (33) constitutes a support bracket having an essentially U-shaped cross-section and being provided with holes for passages of fastening elements (34) for attachment to a supporting surface.12. A device according to claim 6, wherein the support element (41) has folded end edge portions (42,43) forming different angles (α,ß) with the adjacent part of the support element (41), the support element having an assymmetrical cross-sectional shape.
