  • Patent number: 6213317
    Abstract: A merchandise display unit having a foot design supporting a rack which allows the display unit to be easily combined with up to three additional similarly formed display units. The feet of the display unit have front and rear supports projecting past corresponding front and rear sides of the supported rack. The rear supports are offset with respect to the front supports to allow two display units to be arranged back to back with the racks substantially aligned. The front and rear supports are also shaped so that the rear supports may be inserted through the front supports, thereby allowing third and fourth display units to be arranged transversely of the first and second display units. The feet not only provide a modular design, but also minimize the amount of floor space needed for the display arrangements.
