    摘要: A modular display and dispensing assembly and method distribute low-voltage power to a low-voltage electrical display feature at each of a plurality of display and dispensing modules arranged in a matrix and placed upon a substrate for display of items to be dispensed. A sub-base is secured to the substrate at a desired, prescribed display and dispensing location, while a main base is selectively coupled to and uncoupled from the sub-base. A plurality of electrical contact points in both the sub-base and main base enables the sub-base to remain securely mounted upon the substrate and connected to a source of low-voltage power while allowing selective uncoupling of the main base from the sub-base for ready removal of the matrix from the substrate for safe storage, without disturbing the secure placement of the sub-base at the desired prescribed display and dispensing location or the connection to the source of low-voltage power.

    摘要: Apparatus and method display articles of merchandise r aligned in a desired stable orientation for viewing and selection at a point-of-purchase. Each article includes a member of predetermined cross-sectional configuration extending between a working head and a terminal end of the article. The member is inserted between a pair of bowed, confronting resiliently deflectable stabilizing fingers coupled to a platform, with the member received within an aperture in each finger. At the same time, the terminal end of the article is inserted into a socket in the platform. The apertures are configured to retain the article between the fingers for displaying the article, thereby maintaining the article aligned in the stable desired orientation for viewing and selective release at the point-of-purchase.

    摘要: An apparatus and method for displaying and dispensing merchandise at a point-of-purchase adjacent a display shelf secures at least one divider to a retainer plate affixed to the display shelf. An elongate lock bar extends beneath the divider, along a predominant portion of the length of the divider, and is coupled with the divider for unbiased sliding movement to selectively engage or disengage teeth carried by the lock bar and complementary teeth placed on the retainer plate to secure the divider in a selected location along the retainer plate or release the divider for movement to another selected location.

    摘要: Apparatus and method facilitate placement of shelves at selected levels in a merchandise display and dispensing unit. At least one shelf is secured in place in a horizontal, level orientation at a selected level to locate a point-of-purchase at a selected height within the unit. A locking mechanism located adjacent a distal edge of the shelf locks the shelf at the selected level and is operated by an actuator extending essentially from adjacent one to adjacent the other end of the shelf, beneath the shelf, conveniently accessible by an operator from a proximal edge of the shelf while supporting the shelf in an essentially balanced manner so as to enable manual movement for relocating the shelf to the selected level without disturbing items placed on the shelf. A leveling system is coupled to the shelf to maintain the shelf in the horizontal, level orientation during movement, and a damper mechanism impedes accelerated downward movement of the shelf when unlocked for selected relocation.

    摘要: An improvement in an apparatus and a method provide an audible signal for announcing a selection, by a purchaser, of an item of merchandise placed at a dispensing location at a point-of-purchase. An annunciator emits an audible signal of limited duration for announcing the selection. A motion-responsive activator is coupled with the annunciator for activating the annunciator to emit the audible signal in response to imparting an activating motion to the activator. A selection-responsive component is coupled with the activator and is movable in response to the purchaser making a selection at the dispensing location, to impart an activating motion to the activator and, consequently, to activate the annunciator to emit the audible signal of limited duration announcing the selection.

    摘要: An apparatus and method display and dispense merchandise at plural dispensing tiers at a point-of-purchase adjacent a display shelf located at a given level and extending along lateral directions. The merchandise is in the form of packages arranged serially along each of at least lower and upper paths of travel spaced apart attitudinally and extending longitudinally toward corresponding lower and upper forward dispensing locations spaced apart attitudinally and placed at the point-of-purchase. Lower dividers are placed for juxtaposition with the lower serially arranged packages, and upper dividers are coupled with the lower dividers for juxtaposition with the upper serially arranged packages such that the lower and upper forward dispensing locations are placed spaced apart attitudinally to establish the plural dispensing tiers at the point-of-purchase. A pusher-track assembly is secured between lower dividers and between upper dividers for the selective dispensing of packages at the point-of-purchase.
