  • Patent number: 5857791
    Abstract: A print holder has two molded transparent plastic pieces united together each with an upright portion and a base having an inclined flank extending downwardly outwardly from a lower portion of the upright portion. A central portion of the upright portion of one or both pieces is recessed inwardly to define a pocket having an upper opening, for holding print material. The base portions together form a hollow base for capturing an inverted V-shaped printed information carrier that has wings extending adjacent the inclining flanks of the base. This allows display of information through the inclined flanks without requiring printing on the plastic.

  • Patent number: 5722625
    Abstract: A shelf bracket is in the form of a unitary one piece molded plastics material body having a planar plate portion and two laterally spaced and parallel downwardly and rearwardly extending L-shaped leg portions molded integrally with a lower face of the plate portion. The legs extend adjacent a rear edge of the plate portion for engaging in and locating the plate portion relative to perforations in conventional perforated shelving. The plate portion tapers in width toward a front apex, and has a bottom web integrally molded with the plate portion and extending downwardly substantially perpendicularly from its lower face. The web may have informational material applied to it or may have merchandising devices fastened to it.

  • Patent number: 5301800
    Abstract: A literature holder formed form a flat blank by folding forwardly side panels attached on each side of a back panel. A foot portion is connected on the bottom end of each side panel and is formed by a cut in the blank extending inwardly from the folding line, which terminates at the upper side of the cut, downwardly toward a lower end of the back panel, so that when the side panel is swung forwardly, the foot portion swings rearwardly about the axis of the folding line. At each side, the lower edge of the side panel and its foot portion inclines upwardly inwardly so that, in the erected state, the back panel inclines rearwardly upwardly when the forwardly projecting side panel and rearwardly projecting foot portion are placed on a flat surface. A front panel and a bottom panel bridge the front and bottom edges of the side panels, respectively, forming a compact, stable and efficient holder.

  • Patent number: 4532726
    Abstract: A ticket holder for shelving such as in supermarkets, comprises a front support surface with parallel channels to engage and retain the edges of a price ticket. The rear surface has an integral formation defining a hook which has a first pair of parallel edges which engage with a shelf rail, the edge having an opposed edge which with an edge of the surface defines a further pair of parallel edges to engage the ticket rail at a different angle. By inverting the holder and engaging the edges a third angular position of the surface is obtained.
