Abstract

Exemplary embodiments of a product display assembly are provided for displaying various sized products in modules of varying sizes. A product display assembly can be provided, having one or more shelves provided along a width of the product display assembly, a plurality of hang extrusions provided along a length of a bottom portion of each of the shelves, wherein each hang extrusion comprises a top portion, a vertical portion extending from the top portion, and a base portion extending from the vertical portion, a plurality of hanging mechanisms each having a first end configured to be supported by the base portion of the hang extrusion and a second end, and one or more modules configured to display products therein and connected to a second end of the hanging mechanism for supporting the module on the shelf.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An apparatus for hanging modules on a shelf, comprising:
 one or more hang extrusions provided along a length of a shelf, each hang extrusion comprising:
 a top portion; 
 a vertical portion extending from the top portion; and 
 a base portion extending from the vertical portion, the base portion having a left edge portion and a right edge portion that extend outward past a width of the vertical portion. 
   
     
     
         2 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the left edge portion and the right edge portion extend past the width of the vertical portion at an equal distance. 
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the top portions of each of the hang extrusions are integral with each other along the length of the shelf. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a hanging mechanism configured to be supported by a hang extrusion at a first end and connect to a module at a second end.   
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 4 , wherein the first end of the hanging mechanism comprises:
 a top portion having a left edge portion configured to abut with an edge portion of a hang extrusion, and a right edge portion configured to abut with an edge portion of a hanging extrusion.   
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 5 , wherein the left edge portion of the top portion abuts with a right edge portion of a first hanging extrusion and the right edge portion of the top portion abuts with a left edge portion of a second hanging extrusion adjacent to the first hanging extrusion. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 5 , wherein the second end of the hanging mechanism is configured to be connected to a side wall of the module. 
     
     
         8 . The apparatus of  claim 7 , wherein the hanging mechanism further comprises a middle portion between the first end and the second end of the hanging mechanism. 
     
     
         9 . The apparatus of  claim 8 , wherein the middle portion comprises a curved portion extending away from the first end of the hanging mechanism. 
     
     
         10 . A product display assembly comprising:
 one or more shelves provided along a width of the product display assembly;   a plurality of hang extrusions provided along a length of a bottom portion of each of the shelves, wherein each hang extrusion comprises a top portion, a vertical portion extending from the top portion, and a base portion extending from the vertical portion;   a plurality of hanging mechanisms each having a first end configured to be supported by the base portion of the hang extrusion and a second end; and   one or more modules configured to display products therein and connected to a second end of the hanging mechanism for supporting the module on the shelf.   
     
     
         11 . The product display assembly of  claim 10 , wherein the base portion of each hang extrusion has a left edge portion and a right edge portion that extend outward past a width of the vertical portion. 
     
     
         12 . The product display assembly of  claim 11 , wherein the first end of the hanging mechanism comprises:
 a top portion having a left edge portion configured to abut with a right edge portion of a first hanging extrusion and a right edge portion configured to abut with a left edge portion of a second hanging extrusion adjacent to the first hanging extrusion.   
     
     
         13 . The product display assembly of  claim 12 , wherein each of the top portions of the plurality of hang extrusions are integral with each other along the length of the shelf. 
     
     
         14 . The product display assembly of  claim 10 , wherein the second end of the hanging mechanism is configured to be connected to a side wall of the module. 
     
     
         15 . The product display assembly of  claim 14 , wherein each module has a first hanging mechanism connected to a first side wall of the module and a second hanging mechanism connected to a second side wall of the module. 
     
     
         16 . The product display assembly of  claim 10 , wherein each shelf further comprises:
 a bull-nose provided along a front portion of each shelf, the bull-nose configured to cover the plurality of hanging extrusions in a first configuration and configured to flip up to expose the plurality of hanging extrusions in a second configuration.   
     
     
         17 . The product display assembly of  claim 10 , wherein the product display assembly comprises:
 a top header having a first side and a second side;   a left aisle blade connected to the first side of the top header;   a right aisle blade connected to the second side of the top header; and   a back wall connected to the top header, left aisle blade and right aisle blade;   wherein each of the one or more shelves is provided between the left aisle blade and the right aisle blade.   
     
     
         18 . The product display assembly of  claim 17 , wherein a plurality of modules each capable of holding products of various sizes are provided on each shelf between the left aisle blade and the right aisle blade. 
     
     
         19 . The product display assembly of  claim 18 , wherein modules of varying width are provided on each shelf between the left aisle blade and the right aisle blade. 
     
     
         20 . The product display assembly of  claim 17 , further comprising:
 one or more adjustable brackets on the back wall configured to hang the product display assembly to another wall.
