Abstract: A display shelf for displaying a plurality of items of merchandise includes a tray having a base, a front portion, a rear portion, a first side, a second side, and a track disposed on the base. A first side member slidably engaging the first side of the tray and a second side member slidable engages the second side of the tray. The side members are displaceable to accommodate items of various widths. A biasing mechanism biases the items of merchandise toward the front of the tray, and has a biasing element and a merchandise advancing member slidably engaging the track. A stop tab is disposed on the base for restricting the rearward movement of the merchandise advancing member to limit the number of items than can be displayed on the display shelf.

Abstract: A shelf unit for displaying a plurality of products in a space saving manner includes a plurality of brackets for securing the shelf unit to a support. A tray extends between the brackets and includes an outwardly bowed curved front portion configured such that a depth of the tray gradually increases from each end of the tray and reaches a maximum depth at an approximate midpoint of the tray width. A face portion is disposed over the curved front portion and is configured to conform substantially to the curved front portion. The face portion includes a window for viewing a product disposed behind the window. A plurality of adjustable partitions disposed on the tray are arranged substantially parallel to the brackets and define a plurality of rows for displaying the products. A biasing mechanism for biasing the products toward the curved front portion is provided.

Abstract: A shelf unit for displaying products in a space saving manner includes brackets for securing to a support and a tray extending between the brackets. The tray has a front portion with edges arranged so that adjacent edges are disposed at alternating angles to form a sawtooth pattern. A face portion configured to conform to the front portion is disposed over the front portion and has a window for viewing a product disposed behind the window. Adjustable partitions are disposed on the tray and define rows for displaying the products. A biasing mechanism biases the products in the row toward a front of the shelf unit. Each biasing mechanisms has a biasing element and a slidable product advancing member. The products are arranged in adjacent rows at alternating angles to form a sawtooth pattern corresponding to the edges of the front portion of the tray.

Abstract: A display device for at least one modular merchandise unit having a substantially flat base includes a base, a housing supported by the base, a cover, at least one wheel connected to the base, and at least one shelf supported in the housing for receiving the base of the merchandise unit. The housing includes parallel first and second side walls and a third side wall connected to the first and second side walls. The cover is disposed on an upper portion of the first, second and third side walls.

Abstract: A display device has at least one shelf for modular merchandise units having a substantially flat base. The shelf has at least two spaced walls defining a channel between the walls. At least one support is disposed in the channel and receives the base of the merchandise unit or units. Each support has a rearward portion elevated at a first angle, a substantially horizontal forward portion, and an intermediate portion elevated at a second angle greater than the first angle and connecting the rearward and forward portions. When placed on the rearward portion of the support, the merchandise unit will descend by gravity to the forward portion of the support for access to the unit in a selected presentation position.

Abstract: A display device for displaying articles of merchandise, such as books and posters, is provided. The display device has four rectangular support structures. Each support structures includes a base, a first side wall, a second side wall, a first door hinged to the first side wall, a second door hinged to the second side wall, a back wall, and a cover hinged to the back wall. Each side wall is hinged to a side wall of an adjoining one of the support structures. At least one wheel is connected to the base of each support structure. The display device is movable between an open position wherein the back walls of the support structures define an enclosed space and a closed position wherein the back walls of each support structure faces the back wall of an adjoining one of the support structures.

Abstract: The invention relates to an adjustable shelf system having a shelf with a series of tracks. Connected to the shelf is at least one adjustable support bracket. The support bracket is adjustable because it has a series of vertical tracks connected to a series of horizontal tracks. A shelf bar is slidable within these tracks and allows the shelf to be adjusted based upon its angle and spacing from a slotted wall. Display material can be placed on the shelf in a stack and supported by a weighted pusher. The weighted pusher supports these books by sliding within the tracks of the shelf to a front plate. The front plate is designed to support this display material and also stop the pusher from sliding off an end of the track.

Abstract: A display device for displaying articles of merchandise, such as gelatin and pudding. The display device has a base having a central opening, a vertical support pole secured in the central opening of the base, a plurality of three-sided trays defining three corner areas mounted on the pole, a plurality of U-shaped filler panels disposed between at least two of the trays, a plurality of support columns mounted in the trays, and a header assembly coupled to the support pole and engaging the columns. Each tray has a plurality of edges and comprises a plurality of cantilevered shelves disposed transversely, preferably at an upward angle, relative to the pole. The trays are vertically stacked and spaced apart from each other along the support pole. The filler panels are mounted in the shelves of one of the trays and each filler panel forms an open-faced compartment for display of the article of merchandise. Each of the support columns is mounted in two of the shelves in each tray.

Abstract: An adjustable retaining bracket for securing a display panel to a stationary object. The invention provides a retaining bracket having a latching arm, with a rounded nose, pivotally connected to the bracket. The latching arm engages a corresponding latching pin located on a support arm. The support arm is secured to a display panel and pivotally attached to the mounting bracket using bolts. The invention is then secured to the existing store shelving using nuts and bolts. The latching arm contains at least one detent and is used to retain the display panel at a variety of viewing angles depending upon which detent engages the latching pin. When the display panel is rotated counterclockwise (toward the store shelving), the latching pin of the support arm engages the rounded nose of the latching arm, raises the arm and comes to rest in a detent position. Further movement of the sign will move the sign to the next detent position (if available).
