Railcar adapter, for connecting a railcar body to a bearing, having a bearing seat side secured to the bearing and a frame seat side mounted in a bogie frame of the railcar body is provided. The railcar adapter includes a top cover in contact with the railcar body, forming the frame seat side, a bearing seat adapted to be mounted on the bearing, forming the bearing seat side and at least one damping element located between the top cover and the bearing seat.
Hanging product divider and pusher systems and methods for dividing, pushing and/or dispensing one or more retail products
A hanging merchandising product divider and pusher system and method dispense retail products. The system and method have a first divider having a length defined between a front end and a rear end and a height defined between a top end and a bottom end, at least one second divider having a length defined between a front end and a rear end and a height defined between a top end and a bottom end, and at least one connection plate connecting at least a portion of bottom end of the first divider to at least a portion of the bottom end of the second divider. The system and method also have at least one rear support connector connecting at least a portion of the rear end of the first divider to at least a portion of the rear end of the second divider and a first pocket defined by the first and second dividers, the connection plate, the rear support connector and the front ends of the first and second dividers, wherein the first pocket is sized or configured to receive one or more first retail products. Further, the system and method have a pusher paddle movably connected to the connection plate between the first and second dividers, wherein the pusher paddle is urged towards a front-side of the hanging system such that the pusher paddle moves the one or more products towards the front-side of the hanging system when the one or more first retail products are positioned within the first pocket of the hanging system, and rear mounting hangers located at a back-side of the hanging system.
