  • Patent number: 6527127
    Abstract: A device for moving forward in an easy and efficient manner, articles such as canned goods, that are placed on a store shelf in order to facilitate their frontal display. The device makes use of positioning rods that are installed on the shelf so as to extend in parallel relationship with respect to the edge of the shelf. Two parallel side rails act as a support for the articles. These side rails extend on both sides of a central rail supporting a puller member and a backstop assembly. The side rails and the central rail are perpendicular to the edge of the shelf and are detachably fastened to the positioning rods, preferably by snapping. As a result, one may easily adjust their spacing as a function of the size of the articles. The backstop assembly is located at the back end of the puller member. It extends vertically and moves the articles closer to the front of the shelf when the puller member is pulled forward.
