  • Patent number: 5836459
    Abstract: A compact, high-visibility display rack and assembly system is disclosed. The innovative display rack includes a base, a pair of sides, and a mounting bracket which is connected to the base and the sides at an angle relative to the horizontal elongated plane of the base. Because the mounting bracket is at an angle relative to the base and the rest of the display rack, when the rack is mounted on a supporting surface, the display rack extends outward from the supporting surface at an acute angle, providing an angular view of the front of product packages contained therein. In addition, the top, most of the front, and a portion of a side of the display rack is open, allowing for easy access of the product packages contained therein. Furthermore, the sides of the display rack are built using wire-frame construction or transparent plastic to further enhance the visibility and the ease of access of the contents therein.
