A strip light used in showcase, comprising strip light holder; circuit board; at least three light sources; at least three optical components; the optical components comprising first light splitting member, including two first light splitting surfaces distributed on two sides of the optical axis of the light source; the first light splitting surface directs light of the light source at the optical axis and its vicinity outward along the width direction of the strip light holder and projects the light to the distal end of the illumination surface; light stretching member, being located between two adjacent groups of first light splitting members, and used for diffusing the light of the light source along the length direction of the strip light holder and projecting it onto the illumination surface directly in front of the first light splitting member of the adjacent group.

An optical element includes a rectangular light guide plate, a light source setting portion, a parallel light lens group, and a total reflection lens group, disposed between the parallel light lens group and the first side surface, a part of the parallel light from the parallel light lens group is subjected to total reflection at least once to form a first parallel light parallel to the front surface, and the first parallel light enters the first side surface to make the second side surface emit light; another part of the parallel light from the parallel light lens group is totally reflected at least twice to form a second parallel light oblique to the front surface, and the second parallel light enters the first side surface to make the front surface emit light.

Embodiments of this disclosure provide a goods shelf system and a method of monitoring items of the goods shelf system. The goods shelf system comprises: a goods shelf comprising a bearing body for bearing an item; a signal transmitting unit located on a side of the bearing body; a plurality of signal receiving units, located on the bearing body, for receiving a signal transmitted by the signal transmitting unit; and a processing unit, electrically connected with the signal receiving unit, for acquiring a storage state of the item on the bearing body according to an signal outputted by the signal receiving unit, wherein one or more of the plurality of signal receiving units shielded by the items are not able to receive the signal transmitted by the signal transmitting unit.

A modular display and dispensing assembly and method distribute low-voltage power to a low-voltage electrical display feature at each of a plurality of display and dispensing modules arranged in a matrix and placed upon a substrate for display of items to be dispensed. A sub-base is secured to the substrate at a desired, prescribed display and dispensing location, while a main base is selectively coupled to and uncoupled from the sub-base. A plurality of electrical contact points in both the sub-base and main base enables the sub-base to remain securely mounted upon the substrate and connected to a source of low-voltage power while allowing selective uncoupling of the main base from the sub-base for ready removal of the matrix from the substrate for safe storage, without disturbing the secure placement of the sub-base at the desired prescribed display and dispensing location or the connection to the source of low-voltage power.

A showcase is provided for displaying items, at least one of which is an ultraviolet-reactive item. The showcase has a showcase structure for containing the items to be displayed, which includes at least one glazed surface through which the items can be seen. Showcase lighting is provided wired with the showcase structure. The showcase lighting includes: at least one compact ultraviolet LED assembly; a white light assembly; and a controller for controlling the ultraviolet LED assembly and white light assembly with modulation such that the ultraviolet radiation stimulates visible fluorescence in the ultraviolet-reactive item while items in the showcase structure are broadly illuminated by the white light. A method for displaying items in a showcase, and a kit for retrofitting existing showcases is also provided.

A kit for mounting a wall-mounted bottle holder adapted to hold a plurality of bottles in display formation. The kit comprises a fascia panel (10) and a plurality of bottle holders (20). The bottle holders (20) are formed from a rigid wire or rod elongate member. The bottle holders (20) are able to be moulded, drawn or bent into a shape to support a bottle. Using a block (40), the bottle holders (20) are mounted on the fascia panel (10) so that each bottle holder (20) extends outwardly from an exposed fascia surface (10A).

The invention features a refrigerator cabinet door frame. The frame includes a thermally conductive outer frame, a thermally insulating inner frame member, and a sealing plate. The outer frame member includes a forward end having an outer surface that is disposed outside of a refrigerated cabinet with the frame mounted, and a rearward end defining a joint. The inner frame member includes a first end retained in the joint, and a second end. The sealing plate includes a first edge coupled to the outer frame member at the rearward end, forward of the joint, a second edge supported by the second end of the inner frame member, and a thermally conductive sealing surface. The first edge of the sealing plate is coupled to the outer frame member such that the sealing surface and the outer surface of the outer frame member together form a continuous heat transfer path.
