Display with variable configurationRelated Patent Categories: Supports: Racks, Rotatable, Pivoted SupportDisplay with variable configuration description/claimsThe Patent Description & Claims data below is from USPTO Patent Application 20060237383, Display with variable configuration. Brief Patent Description - Full Patent Description - Patent Application Claims [0001] The present invention relates to a display with variable configuration. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] All commercial establishments, be they shops, points of sale, display spaces in exhibitions or the like, are provided with displays for the articles on sale. [0003] These displays can be of the wall-mounted, shelf, or glass-case type and also of the type formed by a column with a plurality of radial arms for supporting lightweight articles, for example eyeglasses. [0004] Known displays, while being used and appreciated, generally have an inflexible structure, i.e., the supporting surfaces and the supports for the articles on display cannot be tilted or oriented variously in other ways; at the most, column-type displays can turn about their own vertical axis. [0005] This structural inflexibility often does not allow the display to enhance in the best possible way the article displayed on it, which can have an aesthetic aspect of great importance in a region which is not visible when the article is placed on the display support. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0006] The aim of the present invention is to provide a variable-configuration display which obviates the drawbacks of known types of display. [0007] Within this aim, an object of the present invention is to provide a variable-configuration display which is able to give the best possible prominence to the articles displayed thereon. [0008] Another object of the present invention is to provide a variable-configuration display which is capable of supporting articles having the most disparate shapes and dimensions. [0009] Another object of the present invention is to provide a variable-configuration display which can be installed easily in any shop window or internal space of a shop, point of sale, exhibition display space, and the like. [0010] Another object of the present invention is to provide a variable-configuration display which is lightweight, easy to handle and intuitive in installation and therefore can be managed even by personnel lacking particular prior training. [0011] Another object of the present invention is to provide a variable-configuration display which can be manufactured at low cost with known systems and technologies. [0012] This aim and these and other objects, which will become better apparent hereinafter, are achieved by a variable-configuration display, characterized in that it is constituted by a supporting element for a ball which is suitable to enter, with reversible interlocking, a receptacle of an item supporting frame which can rotate thereon about three axes. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS [0013] Further characteristics and advantages of the invention will become better apparent from the following detailed description of a preferred but not exclusive embodiment thereof, illustrated by way of non-limiting example in the accompanying drawings, wherein: [0014] FIG. 1 is a partially exploded perspective view of a display according to the invention; [0015] FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a display according to the invention in the assembled condition; [0016] FIG. 3 is a front view of a display according to the invention; [0017] FIG. 4 is a sectional side view of a detail of a display according to the invention. DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS [0018] With reference to the figures, a variable-configuration display according to the invention is generally designated by the reference numeral 10. [0019] The display 10 is constituted by a supporting element 11 for a ball 12, which is suitable to enter, with reversible interlocking, a receptacle 13 of an item supporting frame 14. [0020] Since it is coupled to the supporting element 11 by means of a ball 12, the frame 14 can rotate about the ball 12 on three axes, respectively 15, 16 and 17.
