Abstract: A system for managing and securing product and deterring theft in a retail setting includes a system that resides either on a standard retailer shelf or may be a stand-alone system. In an embodiment, the system includes a plurality of shelves and product dividers positioned between the shelves and extending from the front edges of the shelves toward the rear of the shelves. Front retaining walls are positioned at the front edges of the shelves and are configured to have a height that inhibits access to products on the shelves. Individual retaining tabs of varying height may be added in front of rows of taller product to inhibit access to these products. In an embodiment, rigid or moveable barriers may be positioned above retaining walls that further restrict access to the products. With the invention, the “sweeping” of numerous products by a thief is deterred.

Abstract: A modular shelving system is disclosed. In an embodiment, a box shelf is provided that may be supported by vertical rails of a shelf upright. The box shelf may be supported by shelf supports that engage the vertical rails. The box shelf may include a slideable shelf mounted on a rail and held in position by a biased hinge plate. The slideable shelf may include a divider to separate the shelf into one or more regions and to interfere with the rapid removal of products from the shelf. The box shelf may further include a door that in an embodiment may be required to be opened before products can be removed from slideable shelf.

Abstract: A system for managing and securing product and deterring theft in a retail setting that resides either on a standard retailer shelf or may be a stand-alone system. The system includes shelves, product dividers and front retaining walls of a height and position to inhibit access to displayed products. Individual taller retaining tabs may be added in front of taller product to inhibit access. Rigid or moveable barriers may be positioned above retaining walls to further restrict access. With the invention, the “sweeping” of numerous products by a thief is deterred. An alert device may be configured to detect and monitor movement of the moveable barriers and to provide an alert signal corresponding to the management of product or to a potential theft situation. The alert device may communicate with a security camera to monitor the vicinity and provide a notification to store computer, pager, cellular telephone, or the like.

Abstract: A device for displaying and dispensing articles having a housing and a plurality of removable cartridges is provided. The housing is provided with a cavity for receiving the cartridges such that they can be inserted, removed, and selectively arranged therein. The cartridges have an inlet opening for receiving articles, a hollow chamber for storing articles, and discharge opening for removal of the articles by a user of the display device.

Abstract: A system for displaying objects which comprises a panel having horizontal channels therein and a clip which may be interlocked within one of the channels is provided. The panel includes a base. At evenly spaced intervals along the base, a plurality of flanges project forwardly from the base and lie in a plane which is perpendicular to the plane of the base. Each adjacent pair of the flanges forms one of the channels within which the clip may be interlocked. A plurality of slats are connected to the flanges and lie in a plane which is perpendicular to the plane of the flanges and parallel to the plane of the base. Each slat is connected to a different one of the flanges such that each slat has a corresponding flange. Further, each slat has an upper portion and a lower portion. Intermediate each adjacent pair of the flanges, there is a raised portion. Each raised portion has a flat front surface. The clip includes a base portion and a clip member projecting forwardly from a front surface of the base portion.
