Lighted display case

A display case having a framework, a plurality of panels, and a unique lighting system includes a releasably mounted light fixture, a releasably mounted backfeed housing, and releasably mounted downfeed channel for feeding the cord through the display case. The light fixture, the backfeed housing and the downfeed channel are all capable of being installed and removed without the use of tools. Secondly, a display case assembly involving a pair of adjacent abutting display cases includes a plurality of clips and latches which securely couple the display cases together in a manner which is generally hidden from view.

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.
