Abstract
The museum showcase comprises a casing with at least one open side, a sliding door for closing the open side of the casing, a guide system to allow the horizontal displacement of the sliding door with respect to the casing, and an actuation system to cause the displacement of the sliding door on the guide system. The actuation system comprises a rack, integral with the sliding door and extending in the direction of its width, two drive pinions rotatably mounted on the casing and in meshing engagement with the rack. The two pinions are arranged spaced apart from each other in the direction of the width of the open side of the casing. It follows a very wide opening of the showcase.
