摘要： A display case includes at least one L shaped bottom member having a bottom and an upstanding back along with an L shaped top member having a top and a depending back. A tongue is disposed on an edge of one of the backs and a groove is disposed on an edge of another of the backs for coupling the backs to one another. Back extensions are provided in order to extend a distance between the top and bottom upon assembly of the bottom member, top member and the back extension. End caps and end cap extensions are configured for engaging the bottom and top for closing ends of the bottom member and the top member.

摘要： A device for producing a simulated snowfall is disclosed. The device comprises a display tank filled with water and a plurality of small pellets. A pump positioned on the upper side of the display tank creates water currents which flow around the perimeter of the display tank. The water is propelled out of the pump into an outflow tube extending down a first side of the display tank to a receiving trough positioned along the bottom side of the display tank. The pellets descend through the water to the receiving trough and are then carried horizontally across the receiving trough by a water current to a deflector plate which diverts the pellets and water current in an upward direction along the second side of the display tank. As the pellets reach the upper side of the display tank, they spread out uniformly and gradually descend through the water, creating a simulated snowfall with a natural appearance.

摘要： A modular display case is disclosed. The display case comprises at least one frame member. The frame member is preferably "C"-shaped, having a front face selectively enclosed with a window. The frame member preferably includes grooves and bosses on an inside bottom surface for special use in displaying model train components. Frame members may be joined in end-to-end fashion with a tongue which slidably engages a first locking structure of each frame. In addition, each frame preferably has a second locking structure on a bottom surface and a corresponding locking structure on a top surface, whereby the frames may be arranged vertically in interlocking fashion.
