Support Device

Abstract

A support device includes a rail for carrying goods for display, a movable upright support plate coupled to the rail to support displayed goods on the rail, a spiral spring connected between the rail and the movable upright support plate to impart a pressure that moves the movable upright support plate toward the front end of the rail for so that displayed goods are automatically shifted to the front side when the first piece of displayed goods is taken away by a consumer, and a positioning device provided at the bottom side of the rail for positioning on a bearing board of a display rack.

1 . A support devices comprising:
 a rail being a thin, narrow, elongated member for supporting goods on a bearing board of a display rack;   a movable upright support plate slidably coupled to and movable along said rail to support goods on said rail;   a spiral spring connected between said rail and said movable upright support plate and adapted to impart a pressure that moves said movable upright support plate toward a front end of said rail; and   at least one positioning device located on a bottom side of said rail for securing said rail to a bearing board of a display rack.   
   
   
       2 . The support device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said rail has two longitudinal flanges protruded from a top wall thereof and respectively longitudinally extending along two opposite lateral sides thereof to reduce friction between said rail and the goods carried on said rail. 
   
   
       3 . The support device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said at least one positioning device comprises a plurality of magnets embedded in a bottom side of said rail. 
   
   
       4 . The support device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said at least one positioning device comprises a strip of rubber magnet bonded to a bottom side of said rail. 
   
   
       5 . The support device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said at least one positioning device comprises a strip of anti-skid material bonded to a bottom side of said rail. 
   
   
       6 . The support device as claimed in  claim 1 , which is used with two partition members on a bearing board of a display rack, said partition members being spaced from the support device at two opposite lateral sides, each said partition member having at least one positioning device provided at a bottom side thereof for positioning on the bearing board of the display rack.
