Abstract: A valance assembly (10) for a merchandising fixture (11) includes a bracket (15) positioned at both longitudinal ends of the valance assembly (10) and adapted to be connected to the fixture (11). An arm (16) is pivotally carried by each bracket (15), and a panel (39) extends between the arms (16). The panel (39) is formed with a nose (40) at one lateral edge thereof and an attachment assembly (41) along the other lateral edge thereof. The longitudinal edges of the nose (40) and the attachment assembly (41) are received in a hollowed-out area (29) formed in each of the arms (16), and the panel (39) is connected to the arms (16) at that location. Each bracket (15) includes a flexible arm (26) having a notch (27) therein. Each arm (16) includes a cam surface (35) having a lug (36) formed thereon.

Abstract: A bracket (10) which is adapted to carry an item of merchandise (12) on a retail display fixture (11) includes a mounting member (16) adapted to be attached to the fixture (11). A support frame (24) is adapted to carry the merchandise (12) and is pivotally attached to the mounting member (16) so that the merchandise (12) may be carried at a selected angle relative to the fixture (11). An adjustment plate (22) carried by the mounting member (16) has apertures (23) therein to receive a protuberance (35) carried by the support frame (24) to maintain the support frame (24) at the selected angle relative to the mounting member (16). The support frame (24) includes laterally spaced, longitudinally extending side members (25) which include posts (26) receivable in hollow arms (27) at selected lateral positions to adjust the lateral space between the side members (25). Selected of a series of apertures (31) in the side members (25) receive a bolt (32) to hold the merchandise (12) on the support frame (24).

Abstract: A fixture (10) for displaying merchandise such as cans (C) includes shelves (15) having slots (17) in their upper surface (16). A plurality of inserts (20) divides the shelves (15) into rows of merchandise receiving areas. The inserts (20) each include a base member (21) having a tab (22) in one embodiment, and a plurality of tabs (22, 26) in another embodiment, each adapted to be received in a slot (17). A divider strip extending upwardly from the base member (21), and rails (25) extending upwardly from the base member (21) at its lateral edges. The rails (25) of adjacent inserts (20) provide a surface on which the cans (C) may rest, and the shelves (15) may be inclined so that the cans (C) may slide on the rails (25) toward the front of the shelves (15). A bracket (27) is mounted at the front of the shelves (15) to keep the cans (C) on the shelves (15), and the bracket can carry an indicia displaying insert (35) therein.

Abstract: A bracket (10) includes a back wall (18) having hooks (19, 20) to engage hooks (14, 15) on the edge (13) of a shelf (11). A ledge (16) is formed at one end of the wall (18) and a hinge (26) is formed at the other end of the wall (18). The hinge (26) connects the wall (18) to a cover (25) such that when the cover (25) is pivoted relative to the wall (18), the ledge (16) and any indicia (34) positioned on the ledge (16) is exposed. A transparent panel (30) is connected to the cover (25) and is spaced from the cover (25) to form a channel (31) therebetween. An insert (32) carrying indicia (33) may be received in the channel (31), and the indicia (33) is thereby visible through the panel (30).

Abstract: A system (10) of displaying merchandise (24) adjacent to a wall (12) of a retail fixture (11) includes support arms (16) carried by the wall (12). Tubes (19, 20) are carried by the arms (16) and have a plurality of regularly spaced apertures (21) therein. Hoops (22) are positioned through selected of the apertures (21) to define areas that divide items of merchandise (24) from other items of merchandise (24). Frames (25) have legs (28) received through selected of the apertures (21) and also have adjusting wires (29, 30, 31). Support brackets (26) include hoops (32) to maintain the merchandise (24) in the area defined by the hoops (22). The support brackets (26) each also have hooks (34) which engage selected of the wires (29, 30, 31) so that the size of the area for the merchandise (24) may be adjusted.

Abstract: A retail display system (10) for mounting a sign (12) to a fixture (11) includes a bracket assembly (14). The bracket assembly (14) includes a first portion (20) mountable on the fixture (11) and a second portion (21) which is slidable relative to the first portion (20) to adjust the height of the sign (12) carried by the second portion (21). The sign (12) may be carried by an extrusion member (13) which can be attached to the second portion (21) of the bracket assembly (14).

Abstract: A bracket assembly (13) includes a first bracket (19) adapted to be attached to a display fixture (10) and a second bracket (18) adapted to be attached to a sign (11, 12). The second bracket (18) includes lugs (26) positionable in a loop (31) formed in the first bracket (19) to permit both lateral and pivotal movement of the second bracket (18) relative to the first bracket (19). The second bracket (18) is also provided with an aperture (24) to selectively receive either a first hook (37) to hold the sign (11) in one position or a second hook (30) to hold the sign (12) in another position.

Abstract: A panel (10) for covering a slat board (12) of a slat wall (11) includes a face portion (22) having a hook member (23) at its lower end and another hook member (24) at its upper end. The hook members (23, 24) are adapted to engage the lateral edges of the slat board (12) so that the face portion (22) is adjacent to the slat board (12). Graphics (40) may be applied to the slat wall (11) by cutting the graphics (40) into strips (40A-40J) with a portion (41) therebetween being removed and discarded. Each strip (40A-40J) is then inserted into a panel (10) between hook members (23, 24), and each panel (10) is sequentially installed on a slat board (12) to recreate the graphic image (40). In another embodiment, opposed upper and lower tabs (29, 30) can be provided at the ends of face portion (22) so that graphic or other decorative material may be held therebetween.
