Description
ADJUSTABLE SHELF ASSEMBLY
FOR MERCHANDISING DISPLAY STAND
This invention relates to adjustable shelf assemblies for use in merchandising display stands of the type including a pair of vertically slotted spaced uprights to which the shelf assemblies can be attached at varying heights.
There is a need in merchandising display stands for the shelf assemblies fitted thereto to be mounted on the stand at adjustable heights and also for the angle of the shelves to the horizontal to be adjustable to better display the products thereon.
There is also a need in such merchandising display stands to provide a facility for the shelves to be extended horizontally otherwise it can be difficult to gain access to products at the rear of the lower shelves. By arranging for the front region of each shelf to protrude slightly further than the shelf above it, it is possible to arrange for all the products displayed on each shelf to be readily accessible to the buying public thereby substantially improving the sales through-put of the display stand.
According to one aspect of the invention therefore there is provided an angularly adjustable shelf support assembly comprising a first mounting member with means thereon for releasably attaching said member to a slotted upright and a second mounting member for attachment to the shelf to take the load thereof, said first and second mounting members having cooperating pegs and holes thereon by means of which the angular orientation of the second member relative to the first member can be changed and securing means to hold the first and second mounting members together in their selected angular orientation.
Preferably, a pair of pegs protrude from one mounting member to cooperate with a series of holes arranged in an arc on the other mounting member.
Conveniently, the pegs are located diametrically opposite each other and the securing means is located midway between said pair of pegs.
In a preferred embodiment, the securing means is a screw which passes through a hole in the first mounting member and is received in the second mounting member.
Preferably the first and second mounting members are flat plates, the holes and pegs being arranged on the first and second mounting members around a central axis about which the second member rotates.
Other configurations of cooperating hole and peg locating means are however envisaged. For instance, the two plates can be pivotally attached to each other and a releasable spring loaded peg can be mounted on one of the plates for engagement in the holes in the other plate.
The invention further provides an extendable shelf assembly for fitting to the slotted uprights of a merchandising display stand comprising a shelf mounted on shelf support means, shelf extending means attached to said shelf and the shelf support means and operable so that the shelf can be extended or retracted, and manually operable locking means which permit the shelf to be extended or retracted and moved from one position to another when the locking means are released, said locking means retaining the shelf in its selected position when engaged.
Preferably, the shelf extension means comprises at least one extendable runner assembly with a fixed member and a runner movably mounted thereon, the fixed member being attached to the shelf support means and the movable runner being attached to the shelf, the movable member being mounted so as to be extendable from or retractable within the fixed member.
Preferably, the shelf support means includes mounting means adapted to permit the longitudinal position of the fixed member of the runner assembly on the support means to be varied. The mounting means can comprise a series of spaced holes or a longitudinally extending slot formed in the shelf support means. This arrangement is particularly advantageous in that it allows the shelves on a display stand to be arranged in a cascading configuration (i.e. with each shelf extending further out than the shelf above it) while still allowing each shelf to be able to be pulled out horizontally by its maximum permitted distance.
Preferably, the locking means is mounted on the extendable shelf and engages with the shelf support means to retain the shelf in a selected horizontal position.
The shelf support means preferably has incrementally spaced holes or detents thereon engagable by the locking means to retain the shelf in a selected horizontal position.
In one embodiment, the shelf support means comprises a pair of spaced support arms with spaced detents formed along the underside thereof, the locking mechanism including a movable actuator bar located underneath and adjacent the front edge of the shelf assembly, said bar being movable to disengage the locking means from the detents so that the shelf can be moved relative to the shelf support means. In this embodiment, the locking bar is normally biased into engagement with the detents, the locking bar extending between a pair of lever arms connected to the actuator bar and each lever arm being pivotally mounted to the adjacent movable runner intermediate its ends.
Preferably the locking bar is spring biased so as to normally engage the detents but is released when the actuator bar is moved.
The locking bar is preferably raised to release the locking mechanism but it can be mounted so that it can be depressed or pulled towards the front edge of the shelf assembly thereby disengaging a locking peg or bar from the detent through a series of pivoted levers.
In an alternative embodiment, the locking mechanism comprises a pivotally mounted locking lever which is normally biassed into engagement with a selected hole of a plurality of holes provided at spaced increments along the length of said shelf support means. Preferably one locking lever is associated with each shelf support means, said levers operating independently of each other but they can be connected together to work in conjunction with each other.
Furthermore, only a single locking lever could be used.
The main advantage of this embodiment over the earlier mentioned embodiment is that the or each locking lever can be arranged to cooperate with locking holes provided at a location above the bottom of the shelf support means. Thus, the locking means need not protrude below the shelf support means which can be an advantage if vertical access space between the shelves is limited as it means that the bottom of the locking mechanism will not catch or foul on product stacked on the shelf beneath it when the shelf is pulled out or returned during loading.
Preferably the shelf includes a front and rear rail or guide, at least one shelf divider being slidably mounted for movement along said rails or guides.
The dividers conveniently comprise a vertical wall structure which is non-adjustable in length or alternatively the divider can have a longitudinal slot which slidably receives a product support member therein.
A preferred merchandising stand incorporating an extendable and angularly adjustable shelf assembly will now be described, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
FIGURE 1 is a perspective view of a merchandising display stand incorporating shelf assemblies of the present invention;
FIGURES 2A-2F are various views of the angular shelf adjustment mechanism used in the shelf assemblies shown in
FIGURE 1;
FIGURE 3 is a side view of the pull-out shelf assembly shown in FIGURE 1;
FIGURE 3A is a schematic view showing the shelf runner assembly attached to the shelf support means in various different longitudinal locations relative thereto; and
FIGURE 4 is a cross section through one of the shelf assemblies shown in FIGURE 1.
Referring to the drawings, there is shown in Figure 1 a display stand comprising a pair of known slotted uprights 1 to which two shelf assemblies of the present invention have been fitted.
The upper shelf assembly comprises a main support section 2 extending between the two uprights 1 and having mounting means at each end thereof by means of which the support section 2 can be attached to the uprights 1. The mounting means comprise a pair of cooperating plates 3,4 which are better illustrated in Figures 2A-2F. A plate 4 is welded to each end of the main support section 2 and is provided with a pair or diametrically opposed pegs 5 protruding outwardly therefrom. An outer plate 3 with a hook section 1B fits into and is received by slots 1A in the upright 1. The plate 3 has a hole located centrally in it which receives a screw 8 to secure the outer plate 3 to the inner plate 4.
The outer plate 3 is provided with a series of holes 6 arranged in an arc around the central screw 8 and pegs 5 cooperate and fit into these holes 6. It will be noted that the pegs 5 fit into the holes 6 located diametrically opposite each other about the central screw 8.
As can be seen more clearly in Figures 2C and 2D, on release of the screw 8, the pegs 5 can be disengaged from the holes 6 in the outer plate 3 and the angle of the shelf support member 10 can be varied by fitting the pegs 5 into a different pair of diametrically opposed holes 6 and then secured in position by retightening the screw 8.
Figures 2E and 2F show a modified main support section 2 to that shown in Figure 1 in that its length can be varied. The illustrated main support section comprises two tubular sections 2 and 2A, the section 2A fitting inside the section 2. The section 2 is formed with a pair of spaced parallel longitudinal slots 11 which receive bolts i2 threadingly fitted to the main support section 2A. It can be seen therefore that the length of the main support section 2,2A can be varied by moving the two parts 2,2A relative to each other longitudinally whereby the bolts 12 slide along the slots 11. Tightening the bolts 12 fixes the position of the section 2 relative to the section 2A.
Referring now to Figures 3 and 3A, there is shown in more detail the pull-out facility provided on the shelf assemblies shown in Figure 1. Each shelf assembly comprises a shelf support means or arm 10 secured to the main support section 2 attached to the slotted uprights 1. An angular adjustment facility comprising the cooperating plates 3,4 and pegs 5 is provided at one end of the shelf support arms 10 but this is optional. The bottom edge of each arm 10 is provided with incrementally spaced detents 11. An extendable runner assembly is attached to each shelf support arm 10 and comprises a movable running rail 20 and a fixed member or guide rail 21.
Each support arm 10 is provided with runner assembly mounting means thereon which in the arrangement shown in
Figure 3A comprises several spaced holes 22 (only one is visible) along the length of the arm 10. A series of corresponding spaced holes 23 is formed in the fixed member 21 of the extendable runner assembly. It will be appreciated therefore that the fixed member 21 of the guide rail assembly can be mounted on its support arm 10 in any one of several different longitudinal locations such as the four shown in Figure 3A whereby, in each case, the end 21A of the fixed runner member 21 projects further than the runner located immediately above it thereby providing a cascade effect for the shelves supported by the arms 10.In each case, the movable runner rail 20 can be extended forwardly by all of its available length of travel so each shelf can be fully stocked with product regardless of the cascading shelf arrangement.
Instead of using a series of aligned holes 22,23, cooperating slots or some other means can be used to provide this same longitudinal adjustment facility for the mounting of the extendable runner assembly on each support arm 10.
Figure 4 shows front shelf rail 25 and rear shelf rail 27 (preferably metal or plastic extrusions) with dividers 29 having downwardly projecting feet 30 which are fitted into slots 26 and 28 provided respectively along the whole length of the front and rear rails 25,27. Thus, the dividers 29 can be slid along the slots 26,28 to vary their position along the length of the shelf assembly. Instead of a single wall shelf divider 29 as shown in Figure 4, an end stop 37 which slides in a longitudinal slot in a base portion 36 can be used (see Figure 1). The front rail 25 can include a portion which receives a label holder 31 and also an upstanding front shelf edge 32.
Referring now to the embodiment of Figures 1 and 3, it can be seen that a locking mechanism is provided on the shelf assembly which comprises a pair of lever arms 14 pivotally attached at 15 to the extendable runner assembly 20,21. An activator bar 12 extends between the spaced lever arms 14 just beneath the front edge of the shelf assembly. It should be noted in the Figure 3 illustration that only part of the shelf assembly is shown so the actuator bar appears to project forwardly of the front edge. This is not in fact the case, as can be better seen from Figure 1. A locking bar 13 is provided at the other inward end of the lever arms 14 and this is arranged to engage in the detents 11. It will be noted that each lever arm 14 has an end section 14A which is cranked slightly downwardly to assist in the locking engagement of the locking bar 13 in the detents 11.
A spring 16 biases the locking bar 13 into engagement with the detents 11 in normal use. In order to extend the shelf in the direction of the arrows A or B in Figure 3, the actuator bar 12 is raised in the direction of the arrow C and it will be seen that this results in the locking bar 13 moving downwardly out of engagement with the detent 11.
Thus, the shelf assembly supported by the extendable rails 20,21 can be moved in either direction indicated by the arrow until the locking bar engages in the next detent '1.
If further inward or outward movement of the shelf assembly is required, then the actuator bar 12 is again released so that the locking bar 13 can move to engage the next detent 11.
It will be seen from the foregoing description that the locking mechanism provided on the shelf assembly shown in
Figures 3 and 3A is extremely simple to operate and allows it to be readily moved inwardly or outwardly relative to the uprights 1 by fixed incremental distances and then locked in position.
In some circumstances, it may be undesirable to have the locking lever 14 project below the bottom edge of the support arm 10 as shown in Figure 3 due to space limitations between adjacent shelves so the operating mechanism for the lever 14 can be redesigned so that the free end of the lever engages in holes provided in upper wall 10A of the support arm 10, the lever being spring biassed to normally engage said holes by means reacting between said upper wall iOA and the lever. With such an arrangement, when the lever 14 is raised in the direction of arrow C to release the engagement between it and the holes 10A, it will not protrude beyond the bottom edge lOB of the support arm 10 and catch or foul on product stacked on a shelf (not shown) located immediately beneath it.
