The support bracket includes a major body with a first surface and a second surface, the first surface opposing the second surface. A horizontal shaft extends substantially across an edge of the major body, the horizontal shaft including at least an upper surface, the upper surface extending substantially horizontally away from the first surface of the major body. An engaging structure extends from the major body.

A shelving unit can include a reverse cantilevered bracket assembly. The bracket assembly can be configured to facilitate a modular design that permits height adjustment of shelves for an article of furniture. In some embodiments, the brackets can be configured to be positioned to avoid obstructing a front opening so that a user can easily access shelfs supported by the brackets. In some embodiments, the brackets can be positioned to minimize their appearance to improve the aesthetic effect of the shelving unit.

In a wall-mounted shelving and/or storage system, vertical standards are mounted to a wall using a plurality of individual cleats arranged in vertical columns and horizontal rows. The width of each cleat is smaller than the width of the standard, so that it can be hidden within the standard when mounted. Formed on the back of each vertical standard are a plurality of transverse edges at predefined intervals, in known spatial relationships with bracket connection points, for cooperating with the cleats to properly position and orient the standards at the correct height with respect to each other.

The modular structure for shelving comprises:a plurality of vertical uprights comprising at least one pair of first teeth arranged one on top of the other to define a first interlocking plane;a plurality of first metal sections provided with a cross section, higher than its width, of substantially tubular and parallelepiped shape, and with two ending parts provided with corners and with one pair of first clamping elements, arranged protruding in the proximity of the corners and superimposed on one another; the first clamping elements being spaced apart from one another to be coupled from top to bottom and in block configuration to any pair of the first teeth along the first interlocking plane, each first clamping element comprising a loop defining a passage slot and each of the ending parts of the first metal sections being substantially flat.

A flexible merchandising food well display configured for use with a cabinet including a countertop. The food well display includes an upwardly open food well housed within the cabinet and the countertop defines an opening into the food well. The flexible merchandising food well display further includes a height-adjustable shelving system within the food well. The shelving system includes a plurality of shelves, each of which may be individually mounted within the food well at a selectable height such that the shelves may support different containers at different heights within the food well.

The invention is a customizable, slidable shelving and support apparati and system for supporting, storing and accessing horticultural and agricultural specimens within growing spaces, allowing growers to utilize the maximum amount of their linear horizontal and vertical grow space and service specific areas of the garden enterprise while also allowing for maximum workspace through the use of a table and track system that provides stackable options of multiple grow layers. A method of using this slidable shelving and support apparati and system is also included.

An improved display bar assembly, for the cantilever support of product dispensing trays. A rectangular display bar, is supported by spaced apart, flat mounting brackets on which mounting hooks are located in the primary plane of the bracket, and openings for reception of the display bar are offset axially inward from that plane enabling the recessed accommodation of flanged retaining plugs at opposite ends of the bar. The flanges of the retaining plugs have axially extending abutment walls which overlap outer walls of the display bar and engage offset surfaces of the bracket. The abutment walls overlap display bar walls on two opposing sides only, enabling the retaining plugs to be molded with transverse friction fins. This in turn enables the use of readily available, inexpensive grades of light gauge (e.g., 16 gauge) steel tubing of greater height than width (e.g., 11.5 inch) for the display bars.

The support bracket includes a major body with a first surface and a second surface, the first surface opposing the second surface. A horizontal shaft extends substantially across an edge of the major body, the horizontal shaft including at least an upper surface, the upper surface extending substantially horizontally away from the first surface of the major body. An engaging structure extends from the major body.

Interposer assemblies may be inserted between a traditional shelf and traditional supports for the shelf. Each of the interposer assemblies may be configured to generate signals corresponding to changes in loading on the traditional shelf, and information regarding the changes may be determined to identify items placed onto or removed from the traditional shelf, and locations at which the items were placed or from which the items were removed. The interposer assemblies may include one or more load cells, such as strain-gage load cells, and analog signals generated by the load cells may be processed to determine a mass of an item placed on the shelf or removed therefrom. The item, and a location corresponding to the item, may be determined based on the mass and according to standard equilibrium procedures.
