DISPLAY SYSTEM FOR ADVANCING PRODUCTS

WIPO Patent Application WO2000054632

A9

A display system (10) includes a tray (30), which defines a lower slot (56) and a forward opening (54), and a pusher member (38) that is biased toward a stop. The tray contains products (11), and the stop is a channel member (12) that is mounted to a forward edge of a conventional shelf (14). The tray is mounted onto the pusher member such that the pusher member is introduced into the tray through the lower slot, and urges the products within the tray toward the forward opening and against an interior surface of the tray, so that the tray is urged against the channel member. When the tray is mounted to the pusher member as described above, the tray is secured between the pusher member and the channel member, and the products are optimally positioned at the forward opening. As a consumer removes the forward-most product from the forward opening, the pusher member automatically moves forward so that the products remaining in the tray are automatically moved forward. When a tray is mounted to the pusher member as described above and is thereafter emptied of products, the empty tray is removed. When the empty tray is removed, the pusher member is toward the forward end of the track and passes through the lower slot in the tray.
