摘要 Means for mounting front panels and partitions on storage and display shelves comprising an extension laterally arranged on the shelf employing a recess for receiving an inserted attachment which attachment is grooved to support the front panels and the partitions.
权利要求
1. A holder for use in interlocking laterally engaging shelf panels comprising: a rectangular member having two bifurcated portions defining rectangular grooves opening outwardly of said member one perpendicular to the other, one bifurcated portion at one end of said member extending beyond the common end of said other of said bifurcated portions for frictionally engaging with the outer surface of a supporting shelf arm, and a stop positioned in said groove of said one of said bifurcated portions for limiting the sliding engagement of said one end thereof over the shelf supporting arm, said grooves extend the full length of said member.
2. The holder set forth in claim 1 wherein: said rectangular member defines three bifurcated portions forming rectangular grooves opening outwardly of said member with two of said grooves being axially aligned and the axis of the third of said grooves being substantially perpendicularly arranged to the axis of said two grooves.
3. The holder set forth in claim 1 wherein: said stop comprises a web member extending across the groove at a point corresponding to the common end of said other bifurcated portion.
4. A display shelf comprising in combination: a pair of elongated narrow arms for attachment to a vertical wall at substantially the same level, an extension for each of said arms comprising bifurcated channel members for insertion over, resting on the top of, and extending beyond the free ends of each of said arms, each channel member being contoured at its free end for receiving in a sliding fit a panel holder, a pair of panel holders one for each of said channel members, said panel holders being conformed for slidingly fitting onto the end of said arms and each being provided with a pair of grooves substantially perpendicularly to each other, a plurality of panels, the ends of two of said panels being inserted one in a common groove in each of said panel holders and arranged to extend along and rest on the top surface of a different one of said channel members, and a third panel having a different one of its ends inserted in the other of said grooves in each of said panel holders.
5. The display shelf set forth in claim 4 wherein: each of said extensions being provided with a pair of tabs extending laterally toward the tabs on the other extensions, and a flat shelf support between said extensions in a horizontal position on said tabs.
6. The display shelf set forth in claim 5 wherein: said panel holders each comprise a rectangular member having two bifurcated portions defining rectangular grooves opening outwardly of said member one perpendicular to the other, one bifurcated portion at one end of said member being provided with ears which extend beyond the common end of said other of said bifurcated portions for frictionally engaging with the contoured surface of an associated extension, and a stop positioned in said groove of said one of said bifurcated portions for limiting the sliding engagement of said ears of said bifurcated portion over the contoured surface of the supporting extension.
7. The display shelf set forth in claim 6 wherein: said grooves of said panel holders extend the full length of the rectangular members.
8. The display shelf set forth in claim 6 wherein: the rectangular members each define three bifurcated portions forming rectangular grooves opening outwardly of each member with two of said grooves being axially aligned and the axis of the third of said grooves being substantially perpendicularly arranged to the axis of said two grooves.
9. The display shelf set forth in claim 6 wherein: said stop comprises a web member extending across said groove at a point corresponding to the common end of said other bifurcated portion.
10. The display shelf set forth in claim 6 wherein: the panel holders are formed of plastic material.
