Definitions
- the invention relates to merchandising display trays, particularly those for displaying both loose and packaged small items of hardware.
- the tray may comprise a rear compartment, which can be slid out from the main body of the tray and is configured to fit stacked packed items, with the front compartment being used for displaying loose items only.
- This allows flexibility in displaying different purchasing options, they are not entirely practical, as they are difficult and time consuming to assemble, particularly since often over one hundred trays may need to be installed for a given hardware store.
- the bases of these trays are inclined, which is generally beneficial for the purpose of clearly displaying the loose items, but this imposes limitations on being able to stack packages of hardware items, and is also limiting where the tray is being used to store larger loose products.
- a display tray of elongate form for displaying product for sale the tray being open at its upper side for removal of product and having a forward compartment and a rear compartment separated by a dividing wall, the forward compartment having an inner base which inclines downwardly from its rear end to its forward end to permit product within the forward compartment to migrate under the effects of gravity towards its forward end, and the inner base being removable to permit items to be packed against a substantially horizontal permanent floor of the tray.
- the tray is erected by folding a blank and inserting the inner base, the blank providing opposed sidewalls of the tray, a rear wall of the tray, a front wall of the tray, the dividing wall, and the permanent floor of the forward and rear compartments.
- Figure 1 is an exploded view of a merchandising display tray according to a preferred embodiment.
- the tray is of elongate form having a forward compartment 2 and a rear compartment 4 separated by a vertical dividing wall 6.
- the tray has a permanent floor 7, and the forward compartment 2 has a removable inner base 8 which inclines downwardly from the rear end of that compartment to the front end.
- the tray is intended to be mounted on display shelving or racking with its forward end at the front of the shelving or racking so that the contents of the tray are accessible by the customers.
- the forward compartment may be used to display loose items while the rear compartment holds flat stacked packages of items. It will be appreciated that upon removal of the inner base, larger loose items may be accommodated in the forward compartment. Alternatively, the forward compartment may also accommodate flat packed items when the inner base is removed.
- the tray is assembled from a flat blank preferably of a robust moulded plastic. Accordingly the trays can be shipped to stores in low-volume and flat form to be erected onsite.
- the front end of the tray includes a vertical wall at the forward end of the forward compartment and a downwardly-curved forward portion extending from the upper edge of that vertical wall.
- the curvature is incorporated during the moulding of the blank.
- the curved surface is provided to effectively display a label that catches the light and stands out clearly in an aisle shelf.
- the upper surface of the opposed sidewalls are generally inclined surfaces, such that the height of the forward compartment varies from a lower height at the front end to a higher height towards the rear.
- the portion of the opposed sidewalls at the rear end of the merchandising display tray in the region of rear compartment preferably includes a cut-out 12 for easy removal of packaged items from the rear compartment.
- the dividing wall 6 includes a tab 13 for placing a label for the product.
