Locking devices for pegboard hooks, slatwall hooks, and crossbar hooks are provided. In one aspect, locking devices are provided for preventing a pegboard hook from being removed form a pegboard. In another aspect, locking devices are provided for preventing a slatwall hook from being removed form a slatwall. In another aspect, locking devices are provided for preventing a crossbar hook from being removed form a crossbar.

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.

A wall-mountable organizer rack having two or more vertical bars and one or more horizontal bars in which each horizontal bar has a rear central channel. The rear central channel of each horizontal bar has a channel mouth and a channel front wall, and the height of the channel front wall is greater than the height of the channel mouth for substantially all of the length of each horizontal bar. Bar fasteners inserted into the rear central channel from the vertical bars to fix the vertical bars to the horizontal bars may have at least one dimension that is larger than the height of the channel mouth to fix the fasteners within the channel. Organizer rack attachments inserted into the rear central channel may have at least one dimension that is larger than the height of the channel mouth to secure the attachments within the channel.

The present invention relates to a merchandise display device for displaying goods on a goods conveyor, including: a goods tray for supporting the goods along a feed direction V from a rear end to a front end of the goods tray, a front fixing element attached to the front end, a rear fixing element attached to the rear end, two struts supporting the goods tray on the rear fixing element, each having a hook section for fastening the struts to a bracket, a goods end stop arranged on the front fixing element, a pusher device which is guided along the goods tray to advance the goods in feed direction V, at least one, preferably two divider walls which delimit the goods conveyor laterally and is/are constructed to be displaceable for adjusting a width of the goods conveyor transversely to the feed direction V,
wherein the goods tray is constructed at least mostly, preferably practically entirely as a closed surface between the struts.

A hanging rod control device for a display rack includes a mounting member, a rod, a positioning assembly, a release assembly, a driven device, and a drive device. The mounting member is attached to the display rack. The rod has one end secured to the mounting member with items hung from the rod. The positioning assembly is secured to the mounting member and includes a front plate, a rear fastening member, a shaft interconnecting the front plate and the rear fastening member, and a sliding member having teeth. The release assembly is penetrated by both the shaft and the sliding member and includes arms and positioning plates arranged in alternating fashion. The driven device is disposed in the mounting member and includes a cam and a shaft member operatively connected to the cam.

A product display belt for a product display assembly may comprise a flexible strip having a top surface, a bottom surface, a front end and a back end; a plurality of hinges mounted to the bottom surface of the flexible strip to form a linear array of separated hinges extending from the front end towards the back end of the flexible strip; and a plurality of flaps, each flap having a front facing surface, a back facing surface, and a top surface, each flap mounted to an associated hinge of the plurality of hinges at the back facing surface below the top surface of the flap such that the flap has a free top end and extends downwardly away from the bottom surface of the flexible strip. Other product display belts and product display assemblies comprising the belts are provided.

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.

A product display merchandiser comprising a tray, a spring biased pusher slidable within the tray, and a visual indicator comprising at least one light activated by a switch, the switch configured to be actuated when the pusher is within a predetermined portion of the tray.

A merchandise display hook and method for dispensing one or more items of merchandise from a merchandise display hook and/or for loading one or more items of merchandise onto the display hook are provided. The display hook may include at least one rod configured to be mounted to a display fixture and to receive one or more items of merchandise thereon. The display hook may also include a helix disposed about the rod and extending at least partially along a length of the rod. The helix is configured to rotate in a dispensing direction for dispensing the one or more items of merchandise from the rod and/or an opposite loading direction for loading the one or more items of merchandise onto the rod.
