Abstract:
A product display system, particularly for the display of cylindrical containers in columns, is comprised of extruded left and right lane members and any number of extruded center lane members. The center lane members are of inverted T-shaped configuration including a vertical center wall and upper and lower base elements extending from opposite sides. The lower base elements are formed across their entire width with closely spaced, alternating grooves and projections extending longitudinally for the full length of the lane members. The upper base elements have elements at outer edges thereof to engage with a selected groove and/or projection of an adjacent lane member to form a lane of desired width. Pushers are mounted on the vertical walls to maximize the area available for grooves and projections and thus provide maximum width adjustment possibilities. A novel form of front product stop, and manner of mounting the same, are also provided.

Claim (Index 12):
A product display system for the display of products in individual lanes, which comprises\n a left side lane member in the form of an L-shaped extrusion of plastic material having a vertical side wall and a horizontal base element extending inward from said side wall, a right side lane member in the form of a reverse L-shaped extrusion of plastic material having a vertical side wall and a horizontal base element extending inward from said side wall, and one or more center lane members, each in the form of an extrusion of plastic material of inverted T-shaped configuration having a vertical divider wall and upper and lower horizontally disposed base elements extending in opposite directions from said divider wall, said lower base elements of said center lane members being disposed at a height to underlie at least portions of said upper base elements of adjacent lane members and being configured for laterally adjustable engagement with said upper base elements to form product lanes of different widths, the vertical divider walls of said center lane members and the vertical side walls of said side lane members being formed on one side thereof, facing in a common direction, with vertically spaced apart, longitudinally extending projections, said longitudinally extending projections, adjacent a forward end of said vertical walls, being interrupted over a predetermined distance by vertically aligned cut-away portions therein forming a plurality of vertically aligned segments of said projections at the forward extremities of said vertical walls, a product stop element of molded plastic material comprising a front panel, and a vertically oriented ridge projecting rearwardly from said front wall, said ridge being formed with a vertical passage therein, open at the bottom thereof, of a size and shape to receive said vertically aligned segments to support and align said product stop, said ridge further being formed with a vertical slot therein, open at the bottom thereof, for the reception of portions of said vertical walls in the regions of said vertical cut-away portions therein.
