ABSTRACT:
A merchandise showcase including transparent side and top windows and illumination means for a display portion of the showcase. A frame for mounting the windows is fabricated from roll-formed stainless steel with very little welding. Frame corner posts are frictionally and adhesively held within a channel in a top frame member by a wedge member inserted into the channel along with a top portion of the corner posts. Side window retention means firmly but flexibly grasp the edge portions of each side window and thereby utilize the windows as structural members to add strength to the showcase. The illumination assembly includes a lighting fixture and a down-feed tube for shielding the electrical feed wires. The tube is joined to the fixture only by the wires extending through both to allow the illumination assembly to be compactly folded for storage or shipping. The down-feed tube is rigid and of a predetermined length, so that with one end positioned with respect to the bottom of the showcase, the other end will be within the lighting fixture.
