Abstract: A shopping cart comprises a chassis, wheels, and a basket. The chassis includes a base frame and support masts extending upwardly from the base frame. The wheels are coupled to the chassis. The basket is supported by the support masts to extend over the chassis, wherein the basket defines a compartment for selectively storing items. The base frame defines an exterior facing surface having a bumper extending outwardly away from a remainder of the exterior facing surface providing a buffer of space between an exterior bumper surface and a remainder of the base frame.

Abstract: A shopping cart includes a wheeled base, two support masts, a basket, and a gate. The two support masts are coupled to and extend upwardly from the wheeled base. The basket is coupled to the two support masts and extends over the wheeled base to define a compartment having a rear opening. The gate includes a primary panel and a child seat. The primary panel is rotatable between a first position, covering the rear opening, and a second position extending above the compartment. The child seat extends from a front surface of the primary panel and into the compartment when the primary panel is in the first position. The child seat comprises a bottom panel, a back, and side panels. The bottom panel and opposing side panels collectively form a child seat surround extending from a first side of the primary panel to a second side of the primary panel.

Abstract: A shopping cart is configured to roll along a supporting surface and includes a chassis, a basket, a rear leg, a rear wheel, and a rotational brake. The basket is supported above the chassis. The rear leg extends downwardly from the chassis. The rear wheel is rotatably coupled to the rear leg and is configured to rotate about a rotational axis. The rear wheel defines an outside perimeter configured to contact and roll along the supporting surface. A rotational brake is coupled to the rear leg and extending radially away from the rotational axis in a rearward and downward direction beyond an outside perimeter of the rear wheel. The rotational brake is configured to impede rotation of the chassis and the basket about the rotational axis.

Abstract: A shopping cart for use in forming a horizontal stack of shopping carts that includes a support frame, a basket, and a lifting fender. The support frame includes a chassis and support masts extending substantially vertically from the chassis. The chassis is coupled to front wheels and rear wheels and includes a rear cross bar extending across the chassis. The basket is supported by the support masts over the chassis and defines a compartment. The lifting fender is formed separately from the support frame and is selectively coupled to an underside of the rear cross bar. The lifting fender defines a lift section extending below the rear cross bar and defines a bottom surface configured to be the initial contact point for a second, rear shopping cart when the horizontal stack of shopping carts is formed decreasing contact between the second, rear shopping cart and the rear cross bar.

Abstract: A self-checkout system including a cabinet supported by a floor, a tilt body coupled to a hinge and located inside the cabinet and a support body being slidably coupled to the tilt body. When the support body is located inside the cabinet, the tilt body is balanced about the hinge and the support body is spaced apart from the floor. When the support body is pulled outside the cabinet, a front of the tilt body is rotated about the hinge and the support body engages with the floor.

Abstract: A multi-functional display assembly includes a base tray secured to a display shelf and having a front, a back, a right side, a left side, a bottom, an open top and a height. At least one product plate assembly is positioned within the base tray and has a recess for holding a sample product. A transparent cover includes a height that is greater than the height of the base tray and greater than a height of the sample product. The transparent cover is placed over and around the base tray and is secured to the base tray and the at least one product plate assembly when the multi-functional display assembly is in a secured display configuration and is removed from around the base tray when the multi-functional display assembly is in an unsecured display configuration.

Abstract: A retail fixture includes a platform having a plurality of openings and a cover having at least one slot where the cover is positioned over the platform such that each of the at least one slots of the cover is aligned with an opening of the platform. A set of spaced-apart nubs extends along at least one opening. A bracket extends across the plurality of openings and is mounted to a bottom surface of the platform. The bracket has channels aligned with the openings. Each channel has a first width proximate the bottom surface and a second width distal from the bottom surface wherein the second width is wider than the first width.

Abstract: An interactive display fixture includes an upper component mounted to a back wall and has a front panel. The front panel of the upper component includes at least one opening that surrounds a motion sensing system that is mounted to the back wall. A display table is also mounted to the back wall, located directly below the upper component, and includes a curved upper surface, a front side, a back side and a plurality of recesses having recessed surfaces that are recessed from the curved upper surface and located in proximity to the front side of the display table. The plurality of recesses are sized and shaped to receive respective corresponding sized tester products, which the motion sensing system senses.

Abstract: A modular valance fixture includes at least one elongated light fixture including a channel frame having a first end and a second end and to which a plurality of lights are mounted. At least two identical bases each have a distal end and a mounting end that mounts to a wall. At least two identical sleeves each include a slide end that telescopically receives the distal end of one of the bases, a distal end and a tube having a first side and a second side. Each of the at least two identical sleeves are oriented to either act as a left-handed support or as a right-handed support for the at least one elongated light fixture. The first side of each tube of the identical sleeves includes a cutout that faces one of the first and the second ends of the channel frame of the light fixture.
