Abstract:
A shelf divider for use on an apertured shelf is made from an elongate strip of plastic sheet divided by a lengthwise fold line in an attachment panel and a divider panel. The attachment panel has a row of fold-down tabs which are inserted into respective apertures of the shelf to secure the attachment panel face-to-face on the shelf. The spacing and orientation of the respective tabs is such as to inhibit accidental or inadvertent removal or displacement of the divider when it is attached.
Abstract:
A label holder particularly for uswe on an elongate broom hook in a store display for providing product information in relation to brooms suspended from the hook is formed from a sheet of plastic material having an elongate strip element which is looped around the hook and secured thereto by self adhesion of a contact adhesive on one surface of the strip. The strip has a flange at one end that extends laterally from the hook and a label attachment with a label panel depends from the flange. The label provides a customer with substantially unobstructed vision of the product information and does not inpede access to brooms on the hook.
Abstract:
A mailbag tag made of plastic sheet material is formed to fit on the encircling leather strap of a standard mailbag for providing a stable surface to support a routing bar code for scanning by a bar code reader. The tag has a flexible sidearm which is inserted through the strap hasp to form a hasp lock and the tag is designed to have sufficient strength enabling it to be used as a handle for carrying a filled mailbag.
Abstract:
A label holder for a product information label is suspended from a wire rod forming part of a wire basket, wire shelf, or the like containing the product, the label holder having elongate tabs along the upper margin which loop around the rod and attach to the body of the holder. The tabs have adhesive inner surfaces which are pressed into engagement with the rod so as to stabilize the label holder against swaying when traversed by a bar code reader.
Abstract:
A display element is disclosed which can be used for displaying product information forwardly of an apertured product display shelf and which can be used selectively as a price channel flag for securing in a price channel in a supermarket and the like. The element is formed from a blank of plastic sheet having rectangular display and attachment panels with a transverse fold line extending therebetween. The attachment panel has a slit which forms a depressable arrow-shaped head for secruing in an aperture of the shelf adjacent the forward edge. Sections of the attachment panel adjacent the head engage the upper surface of the shelf thereby precluding upward tilting of the element. The display panel is folded down in front of the shelf and can be provided with an information display card or label. The blank also has a transverse channel-shaped slit which provides a portion of the blank located between the slit and a free upper edge of the attachment panel which can be flexed into a concave price channel so that the display panel extends below the price channel to form a price channel flag.
Abstract:
A multipurpose display card holder is formed from a rectangular blank of plastic sheet. The blank is divided by three transverse crease lines into four contiguous panels namely a base forming panel at one end of the blank, a first card holder panel adjacent the base forming panel, a bridging panel adjacent the first card holder panel and a second card holder panel adjacent the bridging panel at the other end of the blank. The respective card holder panels are provided with card holder flaps opening toward the bridging panel. The first card holder panel is longer than the second card holder panel and the base forming panel is longer than the bridging panel. The blank is formed into a holder by folding the respective panels about the respective crease lines so as to form a resilient channel-like configuration defined by the card holder panels and bridging panel with the base forming panel folded at right angles under the channel-like configuration to form a foot for supporting the holder in a free standing manner. By resiliently deforming the panels from the folded configuration the channel-like portion of the holder can be engaged over the rim of a container such as a dish or bowl to support the holder thereon.
Abstract:
A merchandise information tag for mounting face-to-face against a surface of a perforated board has projections for fitting in respective holes of the perforated board to retain the tag on the board. The projections are slit longitudinally into fingers which are squeezed together in the respective holes so that the projections are held in the holes by friction.
Abstract:
A product information display tag is particularly designed for use in combination with a product support hook structure of the gangbar type having elongate support hooks extending forwardly from a transverse bar which in use is support cantilever-wise from a perforated board. The tag has a mounting portion for attachment to the hook structure at a junction of a hook and the bar, and an elongate portion for extending lengthwise over the length of the hook. The mounting portion has a central aperture whereby the tag is slid along the hook from its distal end and the mounting portion is slit into a central tab and outer wing sections. The central tab engages against the front of the gangbar and the outer wing sections are twisted over the back of the bar. Portions of the wing sections are hinged forwardly so that their upper edges snugly grip the bar. The mounting portion provides secure stabilized attachment of the tag to the hook structure. At its forward end, the tab may have tear-away panels so that its effective length can be adjusted.
Abstract:
Accurate positioning of a portable coded data reader, such as is used for reading merchandise bar codes, is achieved by a plastic display tag having a guide ledge formed integrally with a display section in which the coded indicia are displayed. When the reader is slid along the ledge it is automatically positioned properly to read the coded indicia. The guide ledge is separated from the display section by a fold line which permits the ledge to be folded substantially perpendicular to the display section. A second guide ledge may also be provided to define a guide channel between the two ledges. Mounting projections are formed integrally with the tag and project from opposite sides of the display section to engage respective apertures in an apertured support structure.
Abstract:
A product identification tag is fabricated from plastic and, in one embodiment, snap-fits onto a support member for a peg board hook without requiring removal of the hook from the peg board or the displayed merchandise from the hook. Support structure on the tag includes two holes spaced to correspond to the spacing between two legs in the hooked support member which are insertable into two peg board holes, respectively. Access channels are cut from a nearby mounting edge of the tag to the holes to permit the legs to be inserted into the respective holes only when portions of the tag which bound the access channels are flexed. In a second embodiment, using the same or a different form of tag mounting structure, the tag is secured adjacent a support wall, behind supported merchandise items, and projects forwardly alongside the supported merchandise items before terminating in a display section which is folded or bent to be disposed forwardly of the suspended merchandise.
