The invention generally involves a button display system and button display apparatus for storing, organizing, and facilitating a display of at least one button. The button display system comprises a storage container and an apparatus that is exemplarily, although not necessarily modular. The modular device may be a modular rack assembly removably coupled to an interior of the storage container. The modular rack assembly may include a plurality of modular rack trays, each of the plurality of modular rack trays including a plurality of slits configured to receive a portion of a button positioned in a slanted orientation. The button display system enables systematic organization of at least one, but usually several buttons, effectively storing, preserving, and facilitating their display.

A modular inventory management system is disclosed herein that includes a bin module. The bin module may include a module base, a sensor configuration, and a divider. The module base may have a first lateral edge, a second lateral edge, and a top surface that connects the first lateral edge to the second lateral edge. The sensor configuration may be arranged on the module base between the first lateral edge and the second lateral edge. The sensor configuration may include a plurality of sensor elements that are arranged in a single row on a center axis of the module base and configured to sense whether one or more objects are positioned on the top surface of the module base. The divider may be situated at the first lateral edge and may be configured to slide laterally with respect to the module base to adjust a width of the bin module.

A monitoring and control system is provided. The system includes a plurality of sensors for obtaining readings associated with food items, such as temperature readings, freshness indications, and the like. The system is scalable and configurable with each sensor being capable of functioning as an individual sensor and/or as part of a grouping of sensors. The system is configured to obtain a variety of information, such as ambient air temperature, dwell time of food items, moisture levels, and the like, thereby enabling the system to recognize current and future concerns. The system provides audio and visual warnings and visual displays. In some embodiments, the system performs one or more physical operation based on one or more detected condition. The system is further configured to distinguish between accurate readings and inaccurate readings and/or to otherwise determine if an obstacle is preventing a sensor from obtaining an accurate reading.

A method, system, and apparatus for displaying tobacco products comprises an enclosure and at least one product tray inside the enclosure, the product tray comprising a base, a frame formed around the base, and a series of display bars disposed in the frame, the display bars including a series of product stand holes for displaying the tobacco products individually and vertically.

A merchandising system that improves the merchandising of product by limiting the number and the frequency with which product can be removed from, for example, a merchandising shelf. The merchandising system may include a base configured to support product and a housing configured to engage the base. The housing may comprise a top wall, a first side wall, a second side wall, and a front retaining wall mounted to the base at an angle. The system may further include a spring-urged pusher movably mounted on the base. The system may further include an opening defined by the first side wall and the front retaining wall through which product may be removed.

The invention is directed to a reusable bread tray merchandiser barrier that is connectable to a bread tray having a merchandiser window. The barrier includes a plastic first panel for blocking the merchandiser window, and a connector for connecting the barrier to the bread tray. The connector can include a first hook portion for engaging a lower front wall edge of the bread tray and a second hook portion for engaging an upper front wall edge of the bread tray.

A product management display system for merchandising product on a shelf includes a divider secured to a support structure and a barrier that is moveable by rotation between a folded position and an upright position without a rotation biasing element. A product positioned in the system can contact the barrier when the product moves toward the forward end of the system and rotate the barrier from the folded position to the upright position. The system may include a rotational mounting structure to which the moveable barrier is connected. The rotational mounting structure may be removably connected to the forward end of the divider. The merchandise display system may be used in conjunction with a product tray which provides for product stored in the product tray to be slid from in the product tray into the product pocket of the merchandise display system.
