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. |

A product management display system for merchandising product on a shelf includes a divider secured to a support structure and a barrier that is moveable by rotation between a folded position and an upright position without a rotation biasing element. A product positioned in the system can contact the barrier when the product moves toward the forward end of the system and rotate the barrier from the folded position to the upright position. The system may include a rotational mounting structure to which the moveable barrier is connected. The rotational mounting structure may be removably connected to the forward end of the divider. The merchandise display system may be used in conjunction with a product tray which provides for product stored in the product tray to be slid from in the product tray into the product pocket of the merchandise display system. |

The present invention provides a modular pusher system for facing products on a shelf. The system comprises a plurality of dividers each having a front end and a rear end, at least one pusher comprising a spring element for biasing the pusher towards a front edge of a shelf, a back rail having a mounting element for holding rear ends of the dividers and that is mountable on an upper side of a shelf in a position that is parallel to a front edge of the shelf and at a distance from the front edge of the shelf, and a plurality of front retainers for retaining products at the front edge of a shelf. Wherein when the system is constructed on a shelf each front retainer is mounted at the front edge of the shelf to extend upwardly from the front edge, the back rail is mounted on an upper surface of a shelf in a position that is parallel to a front edge of the shelf and at a distance from the front end of the shelf, each divider is mounted at its front end to a front retainer and at its rear end to the back rail, and each pusher is mounted on the upper side of the shelf between two dividers and is biased towards the front edge of the shelf by its spring element. This results in a pusher system wherein products can be positioned on a shelf in at least one channel formed between adjacent dividers and between a pusher and front retainers to be thereby faced on a shelf. The system is advantageous in that it is a system that can be retrofitted to substantially any shelf or shelving unit. It can also be used with products of a variety of sizes. Preferably the system further comprises a low-friction glide mat that is positioned on an upper surface of a shelf before the other components of the system are mounted thereon and is thereby held in position. |

A merchandise display system can include a pusher extender that increases the pushing surface of the pusher. The pusher extender may define an elongated pusher body having a cavity. The pusher extender may be configured to slide over the pusher wall via the cavity like a sleeve. The pusher extender with an enlarged, substantially planar surface thereby creates an enlarged pushing surface for pushing larger products toward the front of the display system. The pusher extender can also be provided with an angled pusher surface to accommodate larger products. The display system can be mounted to a rear hang bar located towards the back of the shelf. A hanger may be positioned within a cavity formed in the divider and extend the length of the divider. The hook end of the hanger may then be positioned on the hang bar and the entire system may cantilever out from the hang bar. |

A merchandising display system can include one or more of a front rail configured to mount to a shelf, a first divider assembly, a second divider assembly, and a central track or floor, and a pusher assembly. In one example aspect, the example merchandising display system can be configured to prevent splaying of the divider assemblies when a row of product is loaded toward the rear of the shelf or when displaying the product in rows on the shelf. In one example, the central track in conjunction with the weight of the product can be configured to maintain even spacing between the first divider assembly and the second divider assembly, such that the first divider assembly and the second divider assembly are maintained in position on the shelf thereby maintaining the product organized in their respective rows on the shelf. |
