Shelve brackets and shelf arrangements are provided. First and second brackets are provided. Each bracket has a support section, a mounting section and a transition section. The mounting section is laterally offset from the support section. The support section includes a vertical, top and bottom flange portions. The top and bottom flange portions are vertically spaced and extend from a first side of vertical flange portion in a direction the support section is offset from the mounting section. The transition section of the first bracket offsets the support section of the first bracket towards the second bracket and the transition section of the second bracket offsetting the support section of the second bracket towards the first bracket.

A storage shelving plate and a storage shelving system. The storage shelving system comprises a storage component which comprises a supporting frame and a net frame. The net frame is disposed on the supporting frame. The storage shelving system further includes a storage shelving plate. The storage shelving plate includes a mounting member, and the storage shelving plate can be disposed on the storage component via the mounting member.

A security gate for a retail store shelf having one or more products includes a header and at least one hinge arranged in a horizontal alignment with the header. A rigid frame is connected to the header with the at least one hinge and a guard is positioned across the rigid frame, the guard preventing a user from removing the products. A latching mechanism connects the rigid frame to the header and urges a customer to use two hands to open the security gate.

Variable planform shelving systems include a variable support platform and a support surface assembly that is supported by the variable support platform. The variable support platform includes frames that can be repositioned relative to each other to vary the planform of the variable support platform. The support surface assembly provides a support surface for supported items. The support surface assembly is flexible and/or comprised of a plurality of linked panels so that the support surface provided varies in response to variation in the planform of the variable support platform.

The invention relates to a modular structure for a cardboard tower-like display, made up of shelf modules (a) each of which is made up of a cardboard sheet with a four-sided central area (10) whose corners form incoming vertexes (12) and whose sides are folding and flapping lines with respective flaps thereof; together with straight tubes which feature stud modules (b), with the same cross section than the perimeter tubular edges (11) of each shelf module (a), and connecting elements in the shape of corner studs (c), each of which has a central part (30) with arms (31), (32) and (33) projected into three orthogonal spatial directions which fit into the concurrent ends of the tubular edges (11) of each shelf module (a), and the ends corresponding to the tubes which constitute the stud modules (b).

A display rack comprises shelves and a base. Each shelf comprises a sensor mat comprising a lattice of load sensors. The base is configured for measuring a total weight, which includes weights of any objects positioned on the shelves. The system is configured for determining object addition or removal event data based on in time corresponding changes of: total weight measured at the base; and binary load status of multiple load sensors of a sensor mat of the display rack. A binary load status of a load sensor indicates whether the load sensor at least in part supports an object or not. The event data comprises: an object weight based on said change of total weight measured at the base; and an object support shape and an object location both based on said change of binary load status of multiple load sensors of said sensor mat of the display rack.

A display system that includes a vertical trunk with a first support including a first slot in a lower portion of the first support, and a second support including a second slot in an upper portion of the second support and at least one platform having an upper surface facing a lower surface, where the platform including a first groove and a second groove are configured to connect the platform to the vertical trunk and disconnect the platform from the vertical trunk.

A tray and corner post type packaging system for shipping and displaying palletized products is provided. The packaging system is made from three folded and glued blanks and includes four corner posts and a central support.

A shelf bracket assembly is mounted on a vertically disposed shelf upright, and has: at least one weighing device; an anchoring device; and a cantilever for supporting a shelf panel. In a condition where the shelf bracket assembly is mounted on the shelf upright, the cantilever projects from the shelf upright in a substantially horizontal direction. The cantilever has a vertically disposed metal plate. In a Cartesian coordinate system, an extent of the cantilever in a horizontal plane defines a Y-direction, a vertical direction defines a Z-direction, and a direction perpendicular to the Y-direction and the Z-direction defines an X-direction. The at least one weighing device includes: a force-introduction section; a linkage section; and a force-supporting section. The linkage section comprises two weighing plates extending horizontally and parallel to each other. The force-supporting section and the force-introduction section are at least partially formed of vertically extending metal plates.

In some embodiments, apparatuses, systems, and methods are provided herein for front-facing merchandise in a shopping facility. A system for front-facing products includes a product display surface having a customer-facing portion, wherein a plurality of products are positioned on the product display surface, a control unit, and a product movement unit coupled to and under control of the control unit, wherein the product movement unit is configured to provide a force sufficient to induce movement of at least one product relative to the product display surface, the product display surface being substantially stationary during the movement, wherein the movement is in a direction toward the customer-facing position, and wherein the control unit is configured to receive a signal instructing activation of the product movement unit and output an activation signal to the product movement unit.
