The invention provides apparatus (410) suitable for use with a display unit (12). The apparatus (410) includes conveyor means which in one embodiment has a frame (448) with runners (450). An object (422) can be conveyed in a first direction from a first location (426) in the display unit (10) to a second location (428). Object (422) is suspended from runner (450) and movable between first location (426) and second location (428), using a pulley system activated via a handle (52). In another embodiment, the conveyor means may include a conveyor belt (24) driven by wheels (32) connected to a motor.

An illumination system has a display area and a main light source arranged above the display area, and an auxiliary light source arranged above the display area. The illumination system and the lamp through the visual optical superposition principle, provides brightness lighting by the main light source and provides different quantities of auxiliary light sources to flicker the subject. Consumers gain a better shopping experience as the gradient of the light changes so smoothly as to be imperceptible.

A system for displaying a product is disclosed. The system includes a wall having a recess therein and a display structure that defines the recess. The display structure extends through a front surface of the wall and includes a frame having a top panel, a bottom panel, and two side panels. The top and bottom panels are longer than the side panels. The system further includes a plurality of modular display units disposed within the display structure. Each modular display unit extends from the bottom panel to the top panel. At least a first one of the modular display units includes a frame open to a front exterior of the display structure and at least a second one of the modular display units is not open to the front exterior of the display structure. The system further includes a plurality of display elements disposed within the plurality of display units.

A fastening device configured to be mounted to an elongated profile element of a support arm arrangement, and a method of mounting said fastening device to a support arm arrangement. The support arm arrangement exhibits a cross-sectional profile shape, and the fastening device is configured to hold a tubing member by means of a holding element, configured to be coupled to the fastening device and to the tubing member. The fastening device includes a contour surface at least partly corresponding with said cross-sectional profile shape, wherein the contour surface is configured for engaging and retaining the fastening device to the elongated profile element when the fastening device is mounted to the elongated profile element.

Provided is a refrigerator. The refrigerator is characterized by enabling at least a part of a refrigerator door to be selectively transparent by a user's operation, such that the user sees through an inside of the refrigerator while the refrigerator door is closed.
