Patent number: 11363895Abstract: Systems and methods are directed to securing products to product display assemblies. In one aspect, a product display assembly includes an adjustable bracket for securing a product. The adjustable bracket for securing a product comprises a first bracket arm, a second bracket arm, and a base comprising a top plate, a bottom plate, a gear located between the top plate and the bottom plate, and a lock that is controllable between a locked state and an unlocked state. The first and second bracket arms extend laterally outward from opposite sides of the base. The gear is located between the top plate bottom surface and the bottom plate top surface.

Patent number: 4755656Abstract: An electrical toaster is provided with timer means which is initiated when a food product carrier is secured in an operative position adjacent a toasting element. The timer means normally releases the carrier from its operative position after a toasting interval. In the event of a malfunction, the timer means operates a cut-out to interrupt the supply of power to the toasting element within a predetermined period to prevent combustion or ignition of the food product. The latter period is longer than the normal toasting interval. The timer means may include first and second timing devices for respectively timing the toasting interval and the predetermined cut-out period. Alternatively the timer means provides respective outputs for controlling the toasting interval and the cut-out period.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 1987Date of Patent: July 5, 1988Assignee: Morphy Richards LimitedInventors: Eric Charlesworth, Stephen D.
