Abstract: Improved composite units for displaying merchandise are provided generally comprising a rack having hook members releasably mounted thereon. A safety bumper guard may be connected to the rack to prevent an inadvertent encounter with a hook member of the display that may otherwise result in injury to a pedestrian shopper. The safety bumper guard is releasably connectable to the rack, extends beyond and surrounds the free ends of hook members mounted thereon. Goods packaged in blister packs and wrappers with headers may, for example, be removably mounted on the hook members. According to one embodiment of the invention, the rack is vertically adjustable in a pair of substantially parallel upright channel members. A plurality of the racks may be simultaneously mounted in the channel members.
Abstract: A body which is adapted to be attached to a single-prong support hook so as to render the latter less hazardous as well as to facilitate the supporting of packages for display purposes. The body is made of a substantially rigid material such as a suitable plastic and has a length sufficient to enable the body to rest on the single-prong hook while the latter is connected to and projects forwardly from a carrying structure, the body being sufficiently long to cover almost the entire hook. This body is preferably of a substantially rectangular transverse cross section and is adapted to be received in elongated slots formed at the upper portions of packages which are to be placed on the body and hang therefrom for display purposes.
