Abstract

A product display tray is provided including one or more arms movably attached to engagement members. The product display tray can also include a base having one or more tracks receiving the one or more arms, wherein the base is slidable along the one or more arms from a first position to a second position. The product display tray can also include a handle. The product display tray can also include a latch, wherein the latch is operably connected to the handle, wherein the latch has an engaged position and a disengaged position, and wherein the latch is in the engaged position when the base is in the first position and the base is operable to enter the second position when the latch is in the disengaged position.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A product display comprising:
 engagement members;   a tray movably attached to the engagement members;   wherein the tray is movable from a first position to a second position relative to the engagement members, the second position being vertically higher than the first position.   
     
     
         2 . The product display of  claim 1 , the tray comprising:
 one or more arms movably attached to the engagement members;   a base including one or more tracks receiving the one or more arms, wherein the base is slidable along the one or more arms from a first position to a second position.   
     
     
         3 . The product display of  claim 1 , the engagement members including at least one protrusion receivable in at least one slot of the tray, the at least one protrusion moveable from a first position to a second position in the at least one slot, the second position being vertically higher than the first position. 
     
     
         4 . The product display of  claim 3 , wherein the at least one protrusion moves horizontally within the at least one slot when moving from the first position to the second position. 
     
     
         5 . The product display of  claim 4 , wherein the protrusion moves toward the rear of the product display from the first position. 
     
     
         6 . The product display of  claim 3  wherein the at least one slot is one of arc shaped, wedge shaped, and 3 sided square shaped. 
     
     
         7 . The product display of  claim 1 , the engagement members comprising a plurality of hooks configured to engage a grid. 
     
     
         8 . The product display of  claim 7  wherein a first of the plurality of hooks and an adjacent second of the plurality of hooks are spaced apart vertically, the vertical distance between the first position and the second position is not evenly divisible by the vertical distance between the first and second hooks. 
     
     
         9 . The product display of  claim 8  wherein the vertical distance between the first position and the second position is less than the vertical distance between the first and second hooks. 
     
     
         10 . A method of displaying products comprising:
 providing a product display comprising:
 engagement members; 
 a tray movably attached to the engagement members; 
   moving the tray relative to the engagement members from a first position to a second position, the second position being vertically higher than the first position.   
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 10  wherein moving the tray relative to the engagement member from the first position to the second position comprises moving the tray horizontally relative to the engagement members. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 10  wherein moving the tray relative to the engagement member from the first position to the second position comprises moving the tray rearward from the first position. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 10  wherein moving the tray relative to the engagement member from the first position to the second position comprises moving the tray along an arc shaped path relative to the engagement members. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 10  further comprising sliding a base of the tray relative to one or more arms of the tray. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 14  further comprising detachably coupling the one or more arms to the engagement members. 
     
     
         16 . A product display comprising:
 a front end;   a rear end;   an engagement member located proximate the rear end;   a tray movably coupled to the engagement member.   
     
     
         17 . The product display of  claim 16  wherein:
 the engagement member comprises a protrusion; and 
 the tray comprises a C shaped slot in which the protrusion is received. 
 
     
     
         18 . The product display of  claim 17  wherein the tray is movable relative to the engagement member to a second position directly above the first position, and
 wherein the protrusion located proximate the top of the C shaped slot in the first position and the protrusion is located proximate the bottom of the C shaped slot in the second position. 
 
     
     
         19 . The product display of  claim 17  wherein the C shaped slot is open towards the rear end of the product display. 
     
     
         20 . The product display of  claim 16  wherein:
 the tray comprises a protrusion; and 
 the engagement member comprises a C shaped slot in which the protrusion is received. 
 
     
     
         21 . An adjustable mount comprising:
 a mounting member for mounting to a bar, grid or shelf;   a movable support member connected to the mounting member and movable with respect to the mounting member and between a first position wherein the movable member is positioned at a first position and a second position wherein the movable member is lower or higher than the first position.   
     
     
         22 . The adjustable mount of  claim 21  wherein one of the mounting member and movable support have a protrusion and the other of the mounting member and movable mount have a mating recess for receiving the protrusion and the recess defines a passage for the movable support to travel along when moved with respect to the mounting member. 
     
     
         23 . The adjustable mount of  claim 22  wherein the mating recess defines a semi-circular channel that the protrusion travels within as the movable support is moved between the first and second position and wherein the first position is a first vertical position and the second position is a second vertical position lower or higher than the first vertical position. 
     
     
         24 . The adjustable mount of  claim 23  wherein the mounting member is configured to connect to a grid comprising a plurality of horizontal support members that allow the mounting member to be adjusted to a plurality of primary increments, and the semi-circular channel is configured to allow the movable support to be adjusted to a secondary increment that is smaller than the primary increments of the grid so as to allow for incremental changes other than those determined by the primary increments of the grid to assist with improving vertical pack-out within a display. 
     
     
         25 . The adjustable mount of  claim 24  wherein the primary increments are one inch increments and the secondary increments are one half inch increments.
