A display system for coupling to visual communication products has a frame and a display surface, wherein the display system presents a coupling device for coupling to the frame, associated with an accessory that can be manually coupled and decoupled, defining a support. For this purpose, the coupling device presents a flattened body, of a length according to the thickness of the frame, having an end front flange which determines an elbow, and which defines an insertion groove in the profile of the frame, having at its opposite end an elastically deformable rear clipping flange. In this way, the coupling device presents on its front side edge an opening defined by a semi-sphere acting as a positioning pin where the accessory is coupled.

A method for controlling an electronic shelf label according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes providing an input request window including a barcode recognition request phrase on a virtual cell selected by a user, receiving barcode information of a product obtained by a barcode reader as a product identification input, obtaining product information based on the received product identification input, and displaying the obtained product information on the selected virtual cell.

An apparatus includes a shelf having a front edge, a solar cell circuit disposed at the front edge, a display screen, and a controller operatively coupled to the solar cell circuit and the display screen. The controller monitors the period of a waveform of a charging voltage of a storage capacitor of the solar cell circuit, displays an image on the display screen in response to a change in the waveform timing. A system includes a plurality of shelves each having a front edge, a solar cell circuit disposed at the front edge of each of the plurality of shelves, and a controller operatively coupled to the solar cell circuits. The controller monitors the frequency at which a power transfer of each solar cell circuit occurs, and signals a device in response to a change in the frequency at which the power transfer occurs.

Apparatus firmly holds and protects an ESL (Electronic Shelf Label) assembly (ESL attached to a basket clip) installed onto a retail basket wire member so that the ESL assembly is prevented from being dislocated off the wire member by impact or disturbance. Apparatus confines the ESL assembly on a retail basket wire member with a rear lip engaged behind the rear portion of the basket clip, and a front face that engages with the front face of the ESL. A bottom tongue engages with the bottom edge of the ESL to immobilize apparatus on ESL assembly. Apparatus has two protruding shoulders or a friction coating to prevent horizontal dislocation of apparatus off ESL assembly. Another embodiment of apparatus in the form of a strip is adapted to engage with a plurality of ESL assemblies. Apparatus has holes so it can be additionally immobilized onto the wire member with fasteners.

A device for mounting sales labels is used to easily mount sales labels onto shelving systems of retail stores. The device comprises a label housing unit, one or more spring-loaded attachment legs and a lever. The device has a first disengaged position where the device may be easily mounted onto a channel on the shelving system and a second engaged position where the device is locked in place on the channel.

The present invention is an improvement for retail customer experience. Stores that use an Electronic Shelf Label to displays a price (also known as ESL) need an apparatus to draw a customer's attention to products on sale or promoted. The invention is a flag for indicia that quickly attaches to ESLs with an elastic. The flag's indicia increases the ESL's visibility to shoppers and store personnel, and makes the product more noticeable. The flag can be made out of one piece of material or two, and can accommodate indicia. The flag can also incorporate a mechanical gripper to hold indicia. The flag can be installed or removed very simply with one hand, and self-adjusts to be congruent to the ESL, without any obstructions that would cause the flag to be dislodged by an accidental bump from a shopper or cart. The flag can be made of any printable material.

A support arrangement within a retail environment. The arrangement includes a unit that includes a casing with a flat rear side, at least three recesses arranged in a pattern are formed in the rear side. The recesses are shaped such that a shoulder extends around at least a section of the recess in the rear side. The arrangement includes a support device including a flat support body to be secured to a wall and a shelf or a support structure. The support device includes a corresponding number of attachment protrusions that have shape and dimension corresponding to the recesses and each including a support surface to bear against the shoulder of the recesses to maintain the unit attached. The arrangement includes a releasable locking device arranged to maintain the support surfaces in contact with the shoulders in the recesses. The locking device has a male/female configuration.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, an electronic shelf label capable of touch input includes a display configured to receive touch input from a user and display information to a user on a screen; and a controller configured to control the screen displayed by the display based on the input received through the display, the controller is configured to: control the display to be operated in a consumer mode in which product information is displayed to the user or a manager mode in which a screen displayed in the consumer mode is set.

An electronic price and/or product display device (2), which comprises a reflective screen (21) for displaying information, and a signalling device (28) for signalling an internal state or a state change of the display device (2) by superimposing said state or state change in a visually perceptible manner directly in the viewing direction of the screen.

A shelf edge system and/or light box system which can be easily and conveniently attached to an existing shelf system, and which has a display system capable of attracting the attention of shoppers in a store.
