Description
- The present application claims the benefit of priority as may be available under 35 U.S.C. §§119-21 from the following application: U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/364,233 (“MERCHANDISING SYSTEM”) filed Mar. 13, 2002 (incorporated by reference herein).
- The present invention relates to a merchandising system. The present invention more specifically relates to a merchandising system such as a tray or divider system for a shelf or the like providing for the selective adjustment of the width of a shelf division (or a facing or space division on a surface).
- It is known to provide a merchandising system on a shelf of a shelving unit so that some type of product or merchandise may be stocked and presented to potential customers in a more orderly or organized manner. According to one known arrangement, a merchandising system will provide several dividers attached to a front and/or rear connecting piece having slots to retain the dividers. The dividers may be adjusted by repositioning the dividers with respect to the connecting piece, allowing for the system to accommodate variously sized products. However, in this arrangement, when one display area or “facing” needs to be adjusted, adjacent facings in the system will also have to be adjusted in order to accommodate the same sized product in adjacent facings. As a result, adjustments to the systems tend to become more involved, even to resize only one product facing, because it may be necessary to resize or adjust other (or all) of the facings in the system. Also, adjustments in this arrangement become more involved as the number of dividers increase. By way of example, one known arrangement may be provided on a shelf, the arrangement having fifteen dividers forming fourteen facings. Should one facing require adjustment to accommodate a product of different size, all the remaining facings will also require adjustment in order to keep the same relative spacing of the facings. As a result, these systems may require an increased amount of time and/or effort in order to resize or reconfigure a merchandising system when products and product sizes change.
- Accordingly, it would be advantageous to provide a merchandising system that provides for the merchandising of a variety of differently sized products. It would also be advantageous to provide a merchandising system that provides shelf divisions that are selectively adjustable. It would further advantageous to provide a merchandising system in which the width of one shelf division could be adjusted without altering the width of an adjacent shelf division, for example, a merchandising system that provides a number of different adjustment positions to accommodate a variety of sized products. It would further be advantageous to provide a merchandising system that may offer modularity in construction and assembly of the merchandising system by allowing for the construction and assembly of one or more tray systems and/or one or more tray system components. It would further be advantageous to provide a merchandising system which may include an interface configured to selectively engage and disengage as to allow for selective positional adjustment and size adjustment of the merchandising system.
- It would be desirable to provide a merchandising system that provides any one or more of these or other advantageous features.
- The present invention relates to a merchandising system for storing and displaying at least a first sized product and a second sized product. The merchandising system includes a center member, a first member adjustably coupled on a first side of the center member and configured to be adjusted between at least a first position and a second position, and a second member adjustably coupled on a second side of the center member and configured to be adjusted between at least a first position and a second position. The products are configured to be received between the first member and the second member.
- The present invention further relates to a tray for merchandising products having at least a first size and a second size. The tray includes a center member, a first member coupled on a first side of the center member, a second member coupled to a second side of the center member, a first interface provided between the first member and the center member, and a second interface provided between the second member and the center member. The first interface comprises a first plurality of notches configured to selectively co-act with a first moveable projection and wherein the second interface each comprises a second plurality of notches configured to selectively co-act with a second moveable projection.
- The present invention further relates to merchandising tray system having a first member, a second member adjustably coupled to the first member and a first interface provided between the first member and the second member. The first interface includes a first series of notches, and a first arm having a first extension. The first extension is configured to selectively engage one notch of the first series of notches and to disengage the one notch by actuation of the first arm.
