  • Patent number: 5318190
    Abstract: A display tray is adjustable for receiving and displaying differently sized plates and bowls. The tray includes a bottom wall, a pair of side walls connected thereto by living hinges such that the side walls can be moved to different angular positions, and a front wall. The bottom wall and side walls are further provided with rib elements which engage the plates and act as frictional treads to prevent the plates and bowls from tipping over. In order to maintain the side walls in the desired angular position a comb-like partition having a plurality of teeth is provided. The partition extends through slots in the side walls so that the side walls can be snapped in between any two adjacent teeth. To further maintain the side walls in the desired angular position wire rods are provided having front bent ends which are adapted to be inserted into receptacles which are provided on the inner surface of the front wall.
