[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in this kind of sample table structure 100, the fluorescent lamps 200 and 210 directly above each sample table 110 are used to illuminate the product sample K group directly below, so that the illuminance tends to decrease toward the bottom. When the entire sample table 110 is viewed from the front side, the illumination of the upper part of the product sample K is strong and the illumination of the lower part is weak, and generally, reflection from the upper part of the background plate 300 (back plate) is strong. There is a problem that the periphery of the product sump K is bright and the front surface of the product sample K tends to be dark, and the product display power is lower than in the daytime.
In addition, a structure that directly illuminates the product sample is used to illuminate the product sample from the inside, but only the white characters displayed on the product sample and the pattern part are displayed. Although it appears brightly to the outside, the brightness of the light directly illuminating the product sample and the brightness of the product sample transmitted through are naturally brighter, so the product sample still remains as a whole. The tendency of the surroundings to be bright and the front of the product sample to be dark did not change significantly.
