Abstract:
A product management display system for merchandising product on a shelf includes using a trackless pusher mechanism that travels along a surface on which product is placed and one or more dividers for separating product into rows. The one or more dividers may be engaged to a front rail in two different conditions, locked and unlocked. In a locked condition, the relationship between the divider and the front rail resists alteration in any direction with respect to each other. In the unlocked condition, the dividers may be freely slid laterally along the front rail, while remaining perpendicular to the front rail. The one or more dividers may lock to the front rail through the use of corresponding teeth, resilient surfaces, a locking tab, a locking bar and/or a cam that may define a cam glide.

Claim (Index 12):
A merchandise display system comprising:\n a front rail that is mountable to a shelf; a first divider floor configured to engage the front rail and to hold product and a first divider wall extending upwardly from the first divider floor; a portion of the first divider floor having a first lock; a first front barrier mounted to the first divider, the first front barrier defining a plane extending perpendicularly to both the first divider floor and the first divider wall; and a first pusher mechanism coupled to the first divider floor, wherein an actuator of the first lock is positioned in front of the first barrier and in front of the first pusher mechanism both when the first divider floor is empty and when the first divider floor is loaded with product and wherein the actuator of the first lock is configured to be digitally accessible by a user's thumb or finger when product is on the first divider floor and without having to push back product located on the first divider floor, wherein the first lock when in a first position permits slidable movement of the first divider floor relative to the front rail, and wherein the first lock prevents slidable movement of the first divider floor relative to the front rail when in a second position.
