Product display shelf, system and method
A product display shelf, system and method are disclosed. The product display system includes a shelf unit having a back shelf portion and a front shelf portion. The back shelf portion includes a first connecting element for releasably attaching the back shelf portion to an electrically powered support member, and the front shelf portion includes a second connecting element for releasably attaching the front shelf portion to the back shelf portion. The front shelf portion can also include a body portion and a display panel connected to or integral with the body portion, suitable for displaying information to a user.
Smart shelves
Interposer assemblies may be inserted between a traditional shelf and traditional supports for the shelf. Each of the interposer assemblies may be configured to generate signals corresponding to changes in loading on the traditional shelf, and information regarding the changes may be determined to identify items placed onto or removed from the traditional shelf, and locations at which the items were placed or from which the items were removed. The interposer assemblies may include one or more load cells, such as strain-gage load cells, and analog signals generated by the load cells may be processed to determine a mass of an item placed on the shelf or removed therefrom. The item, and a location corresponding to the item, may be determined based on the mass and according to standard equilibrium procedures.
Shelving system
A shelving system includes a plurality of horizontal support members, each horizontal support member having a length; a plurality of wall supports, each wall support including a first surface on which at least a portion of a horizontal support member rests; a plurality of brackets, each bracket attachable to the horizontal support members at different positions along the length of the horizontal support member; a plurality of vertical support members, each vertical support member coupled to at least one bracket; and a shelf attached to at least two of the plurality of vertical support members.
SUPPORT APPARATUS
This support apparatus includes a fixation member and a support member attachable to and detachable from an opening portion of the fixation member. A first upper surface portion of the opening portion is formed of: a first front surface portion sloped in a downward direction; and a first rear surface portion formed continuously from the first front surface portion and sloped in an upward direction. A first lower surface portion is sloped in parallel with the first front surface portion. A second upper surface portion of the support member is formed of: a second front surface portion to contact the first front surface portion; and a second rear surface portion to contact the first rear surface portion. A second lower surface portion is sloped in a downward direction, at a slope angle, so as to contact with an opening-side end of the first lower surface portion.
Double-surface contact tray loading base
A double-surface contact tray loading base comprises a loading surface (4) and a hook (1) arranged on an outer end of the loading surface (4), the hook (1) comprises a hook lug (1-2) and a support plate (6), the hook lug (1-2) is arranged on an upper side of the outer end of the loading surface (4), and the support plate (6) is arranged on a lower side of the outer end of the loading surface (4), thus forming the double-surface contact tray loading base.
Support assembly for appliance
A vacuum insulated appliance includes an outer wrapper and an inner liner. A ladder rack is coupled to the inner liner. The ladder rack includes first and second sidewalls coupled together by a connecting wall that defines a plurality of apertures. An adapter member includes a hook configured to extend through an aperture of the plurality of apertures when coupled to the ladder rack. The adapter member is coupled with a locking member that engages inner surface of first and second sidewalls of the ladder rack. A cantilever support is coupled to the adapter member and extends outward from the ladder rack. A rail assembly is coupled to an upper surface of the cantilever support. A spacer is coupled to an end of the cantilever support and abuts an inner liner surface. A storage feature is coupled to the rail assembly and is operable between stowed and deployed positions.
Fastening part of a storage system
The present disclosure relates to a fastening part for a storage system. The system comprises a storage device, such as a basket, a set of hooks, a shoe rack, a perforated panel or the like, which can be attached, by means of the fastening part, to a carrier element with a number of slots. The fastening part comprises a base portion, with at least one opening, an inner part, resting on the base portion at the carrier element's side and providing at least one hook to be inserted into the carrier element, and another part resting on the base portion at an outer side, and comprising a connector that engages with the inner part through said at least one opening, such that the base portion is sandwiched between the inner part and the outer part.
SIGNAGE SYSTEMS AND MERCHANDISING DISPLAY ASSEMBLIES
A shelf bracket for suspending merchandising display structures includes a generally planar main body portion, a proximal end for attachment to a shelf, and a distal end. The distal end is for suspending a merchandising display structure. The distal end defines at least one opening. A first tab extends into a first opening of the at least one opening for engaging a hole in a mounting tab a first merchandising display structure.
CART DEVICE
A cart device (1) includes a first base portion (3a) which can travel on a floor surface, a support body (3b) which extends upward from the first base portion (3a), article placing members (2, 10) on which an article can be placed, and support means (4, 11) for disposing the article placing members (2, 10) on at least three sides around the support body (3b) such that a vertical position of each of the article placing members (2, 10) can be changed.
Storage system and hardware
A storage system includes at least one upright rail having a front side with notches formed along a length thereof, the at least one upright rail arranged to be attached to an upright support surface. A bracket is arranged to be attached to the at least one upright rail, the bracket including a substrate and a plurality of hooks extending therefrom which are arranged to be received in a corresponding plurality of the notches, the plurality of hooks disposed only along a first portion of the substrate and not along a second portion of the substrate to define an open region of the bracket. The open region allows for attachment of at least one additional hardware member in a shared section with the bracket along the length of the front side of the at least one upright rail.
