Adaptable product display systems and methods
A product display system includes a base, a shelving support assembly coupled to the base, and one or more shelves removably secured to the shelving support assembly. The one or more shelves are securable to the shelving support assembly in a first configuration and a second configuration that differs from the first configuration.
REFRIGERATED DISPLAY CASE WITH SHELF INDEXING SYSTEM
A refrigerated display case is provided. The refrigerated display case includes a rear wall has a first end, a second end disposed opposite the first end and a plurality of markings disposed between the first end and the second end. A mounting rail is coupled to the rear wall. A shelf is adjustably coupleable to the mounting rail at a plurality of positions between the first end and the second end of the rear wall. The plurality of markings are configured to indicate a distance from the first end of the rear wall to the shelf based on alignment of the shelf with at least one of the plurality of markings.
Retail shelving system
A shelving system is provided. The shelving system includes an upper rail, and optionally a lower rail, from which one or more upright supports extend. The upright supports are slidable within the upper and lower rails so that a user may vary their location. A shelf mounts to the upright supports. The shelf includes interlocking deck panels and selectively removable support bars so that it may be assembled onto the upright supports.
DISPLAY CASE WITH INSULATED FOAM PANELING
A refrigerated display case chassis includes a first insulated panel and a second insulated panel. The first insulated panel has a first foam layer bounded by a first pair of thermally conductive sheets. The first insulated panel forms a first wall of the refrigerated display case chassis. The second insulated panel has a second foam layer bounded by a second pair of thermally conductive sheets. The second insulated panel forms a second wall of the refrigerated display case chassis. The second insulated panel mates with the first insulated panel to form a thermally insulated joint where, in cross-section, one sheet of the first pair of thermally conductive sheets terminates at a surface of the second foam layer. The thermally conductive sheets have a greater thermal conductivity than the first or second foam layers.
Refrigerated Display Case with Shelf Indexing System
A refrigerated display case is provided. The refrigerated display case includes a rear wall has a first end, a second end disposed opposite the first end and a plurality of markings disposed between the first end and the second end. A mounting rail is coupled to the rear wall. A shelf is adjustably coupleable to the mounting rail at a plurality of positions between the first end and the second end of the rear wall. The plurality of markings are configured to indicate a distance from the first end of the rear wall to the shelf based on alignment of the shelf with at least one of the plurality of markings.
Electric shelf
An electric shelf which has at least one column to be installed on a wall, a slidable component arranged on the column to slide along the column vertically, at least one layer of shelf board component connected to the slidable component to move simultaneously with the slidable component, and a linear driving device connected to the slidable component and the column to actuate the slidable component to move relative to the column. Advantages of the present disclosure compared to prior arts include a simpler structure and less space occupied by the shelf board component.
Detection of load cells associated with weight changes at a fixture
Items may be stored on a fixture of a facility using one or more accessories, such as trays or bins. Weighing modules that include one or more load cells may be mounted to a crossbar of the fixture. The accessories of the fixture may then be mounted to the crossbar via the weighing modules. The load cells within each weighing module can collect weight data associated with items stowed in the accessories that are coupled to the weighing module. When a weight change is detected at the fixture, a particular load cell is identified as the source of the weight change. Once a load cell is identified, the accessory coupled to the load cell is identified, as well as the types of items stowed therein. Interaction data can then be determined to indicate a type of item that was added to or removed from the accessory of the fixture.
Modular Merchandise Display
A modular merchandise display which allows for the integrated display of greeting cards and other social expression products. The system provides flexibility in the set up and modification of the retail display over time by offering product modules having a variety of holding mechanisms for retaining and displaying a wide range of products. Each product module operates independently from all others such that adding/removing/rearranging a product module does not affect or disrupt the other product modules on the display.
Electronic Shelving Systems, Cable-Managing Coupling Brackets, and Methods Thereof
Disclosed herein is an electronic shelving system including, in some embodiments, a shelving unit and one or more coupling brackets. Each coupling bracket includes a bracket-coupling body, one or more power couplers disposed in the bracket-coupling body, one or more data couplers disposed in the bracket-coupling body, and one or more integral fasteners such as a tongue extending from the bracket-coupling body configured for fastening the coupling bracket to the shelving unit. Also disclosed herein is a method for the electronic shelving system including, in some embodiments, installing n coupling brackets in the shelving unit, running at least n+1 power cables or data cables through a slotted cable raceway of the shelving unit, and coupling at least two power cables or data cables to each other by way of the coupling bracket.
Moveable base for retail gondola
An example base for a retail gondola can include: a frame defining a locator configured to receive a bottom portion of the retail gondola; and a plurality of bolts held by the frame, the plurality of bolts being moveable up and down to position the frame relative to a support surface; wherein a portion of each of the plurality of bolts is configured to allow the frame to be slid along the support surface.
