Patent number: 12098001Abstract: Examples provide a configurable divider bridge system. A divider bridge includes a tab at opposite ends of the divider bridge. The tabs insert into receiving slots inside a container, such as a display case or packing container. The receiving slots guide the tabs downward between the interior sides of the container and items placed inside the container. As the tabs slide down into the receiving slots, the side panels of the divider bridge are guided into an unfolded configuration. The slots permit installation of the divider bridge into the container which already contains soft product easily while preventing damage to the divider or the soft product. The divider bridge can be placed inside the container in a variety of configurations and/or orientations to accommodate a variety of sizes and shapes of containers and types of items being stored, transported, or displayed within the containers.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2021Date of Patent: September 24, 2024Assignee: Walmart Apollo, LLCInventors: Jonathan Michael Genord, Anna L.
