A device for presenting small articles in retail shelf systems (1). The device may include a lower part (3) cooperating with the shelf system, an upper part (2) that can be connected to the lower part (3) and a holder (4) for the small article, wherein the lower part (3) and the upper part (2) can be connected via a latching connection or a clamping connection via connecting elements (5) which are formed on the lower part (3) and/or on the upper part (2) and which engage in corresponding receiving openings (12) in the mating piece, and the holder (4) for the small article is connected laterally to the lower part (3) and/or the upper part (2), and at least two holding wings (15) for receiving the small article are formed on the upper side of said holder.

A controller comprises a detecting unit which detects a fulfilled state of a product on a store shelf; a first control unit which issues an instruction for conveying the product required to fulfill the store shelf from a storage space to the store shelf on the basis of the fulfilled state; a second control unit which issues an instruction for moving to the store shelf on the basis of the fulfilled state; a third control unit which issues an instruction for allowing an arrangement area to slide from inside of the store shelf to the front of the store shelf so that the replenishing apparatus can access the arrangement area in which the product is arranged on the store shelf; and a fourth control unit which permits the replenishing apparatus to lift the product conveyed by the conveying apparatus and replenish the arrangement area slide frontward with the product.

A tiered display unit includes a frame assembly. The frame assembly includes a first side support structure having a plurality of support members that form at least one tier, a second side support structure having a plurality of support members that form at least one tier and a plurality of cross members that connect the first support structure to the second support structure. Select cross members of the plurality of cross members include a pair of elongated components that are spaced apart from each other and occupy an area that is the same as the non-selected cross members. The space between the pairs of elongated components of the select cross members are configured to receive hooks for mating display accessories to the frame assembly.

A method may include obtaining a weight of merchandise supported by a shelf and obtaining identifier data of the merchandise supported by the shelf. The identifier data may be wirelessly received from tags associated with the merchandise. The method may also include determining information for presentation to a consumer regarding the merchandise based on the weight of the merchandise and the identifier data of the merchandise. The method may also include providing the information for presentation to the consumer of the merchandise when the consumer is proximate the merchandise that is supported by the shelf.

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.

A shelf bracket assembly mounted upright on a vertically disposed shelf has: a load cell; an anchor; and a cantilever supporting a shelf panel. The cantilever projects from the shelf upright in a substantially horizontal direction. The cantilever has a vertically disposed frame or a vertically disposed metal plate and a mount for the load cell. The load cell has a monolithic measuring body that has: a force-supporting section; a force-introduction section; and a linkage section between the force-supporting section and the force-introduction section. The force-supporting section of the monolithic measuring body is laterally attached to the mount. The monolithic measuring body has at least one mounting hole through which the monolithic measuring body is attached to the mount with a screw extending horizontally through the monolithic measuring body.

Disclosed is a shelving system comprising a vertical surface and at least one shelving bracket, wherein the shelving bracket comprises a first projection in the form of an integral hook-shaped fastening element on the upper portion of one end of a bracket element; a second projection in the form of an aligning projection on the lower portion of said end of the bracket element; and a hollow tube-like support element, wherein the opposite end of the bracket element extends internally to one end of support element and toward the opposite end of the support element.

A shelf lighting system has a lighting module and a power taking module, the power taking module has a power taking head, a strip-shaped conductive member, and a plug connector. The shelf lighting system integrates the power taking module of the shelf lighting system onto the support arm of the shelf, so that the power taking module can be installed simultaneously with installation of the laminate, which simplifies the entire lamp installation process and improves the installation efficiency.

Described is an RFID-enabled medical item storage, organization, and/or tracking device, such as a cabinet or shelf, that includes a limited-range wireless network communication capability, such as low-energy Bluetooth or Zigbee, to communicate with nearby cabinets, shelves or mobile devices, any of which may serve as a communication aggregator to coordinate the communication of multiple cabinets, shelves and other devices with an inventory management system or other back-end computer system or other device via back haul wireless or wired networks (e.g., the Internet).
