Abstract

Revised Invention Summary 01/02/2016 Tubular shelf for open-front air curtain display units. The shelf has a supply pipe at the bottom level connected to a downward-facing forward outlet and a return pipe at the top level connected to an upward-facing forward inlet. In a front-to-back section through the shelf, the supply pipe extension at the front of the supply pipe narrows forward above the outlet, and the return pipe extension at the front of the return pipe descends forward to the bottom of the shelf to rest forward of the supply pipe. This has the advantage of reducing the thickness of the front of the shelf. -------------------------------------------------------------- Tubular shelf for open-front air curtain display units.
