  • DETAILED DESCRIPTION
  • FIG. 1 shows an example hanger rail 10 including two hook type retail product hangers 12, one mounted on each side of the hanger rail 10. The hangers 12 may include a hook 12A of any selected length for holding retail product packaging. In the present example, hangers 12 may be mounted on each side of the rail 10. FIG. 2 shows the rail 10 and the hangers 12 in side view.
  • The example hanger rail 10 is shown in end view in FIG. 3 to illustrate some of the features thereof. The rail 10 may include a center bar 10A which supports spaced apart retainers 10C. The retainers 10C may be generally “C” shaped and define a groove 10B between the retainer 10C and the center bar 10A. The retainers 10C may be generally disposed at the lateral ends of the center bar 10A and on each side thereof so that the grooves 10B may be defined on both sides of the center bar 10A.
  • FIG. 4 shows a view proximate the bottom of the hanger rail 10, wherein the retainers (10C in FIG. 3) may be bent inwardly to create stops 10D. The stops 10D limit movement of the hangers (12 in FIG. 1) so that they cannot fall out of the bottom of the hanger rail 10.
  • An example hanger rail 10 shown in FIG. 5 may include an opening 11 for insertion of a hook or other device to suspend or mount the hanger rail 10 to a product display, shelf or other device. It is contemplated that the hanger rail 10 will be mounted so that both sides thereof will be accessible, such that retail product packaging may be accessed from both sides of the hanger rail 10.
  • FIGS. 6 and 7 show oblique views of the front of one of the hangers 12. The hanger 12 may include a faceplate 12B that covers substantially the entire area of the hanger rail (10 in FIG. 4) when the hanger 12 is mounted to the hanger rail.
  • FIG. 8 shows a rear view of the example hanger 12. The rear face of the faceplate 12B may include a generally rectangular mounting tab 12C. The mounting tab 12C may be secured to the faceplate 12B at a short spacing, such as by a post or similar device (not shown). The hanger 12 as shown may be molded as a single unit from, for example, plastic, or may be assembled from separate components. The mounting tab 12C has a short dimension that enables free movement thereof into the space between the retainers (10C in FIG. 3) on the hanger rail, and a long dimension that enables a friction or interference fit between the mounting tab 12C and the grooves (10B in FIG. 3) in the hanger rail.
  • As shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, to mount a hanger 12 to the hanger rail 10, the hanger 12 is inserted into the hanger rail 10 between the retainers oriented transversely to its position in use. To lock the hanger 12 in position, the hanger may be rotated 90 degrees so that the long dimension of the mounting tab (12C in FIG. 8) is disposed across the hanger rail 10 and is friction or interference fit in the grooves (10B in FIG. 3).
  • FIG. 11 shows an example of a hanger rail 10 as described with reference to FIGS. 3, 4 and 5 suspended a selected distance in front of a shelf support bracket 14. The shelf support bracket 14 may be of types known in the art that suspends supports using notched tabs on a back side thereof to engage slots 15 in the front face of the shelf support bracket 14. The support bracket 14 may be affixed to any structure in a manner well known in the art. In the present example, a support arm 16, such as an adjustable length arm may engage at one end thereof the shelf support bracket 14 at any selected vertical position corresponding to the position of selected ones of the slots 15. The support arm 16 may be further secured to the shelf support bracket 14 with a threaded fastener 13. The other end of the support arm 16 may have a hook 18 or similar device attached to or engaged therewith to suspend the hanger rail 10. An example hook 12 as explained above with reference to FIGS. 6-10 may be engaged to the hanger rail 10 at a selected axial position. Other examples may include more than one such hook as explained above.
  • FIG. 12 shows an example of an adjustable length embodiment of the support arm 16. A first arm section 16A may include an elongated slot 16C to slidingly engage a pin or rivet 19 disposed proximate one end of a second arm section 16B. The second arm section 16B may include at its other end notched tabs 21 to engage selected ones of the slots (15 in FIG. 11) on the shelf support bracket (14 in FIG. 11). A screw and lock nut or wing nut 17 may also be disposed proximate the one end of the second arm section 16B. Tightening the lock nut or wing nut 17 will fix the position of the first arm section 16A with respect to the second arm section 16B, thus fixing the length of the adjustable length embodiment of the support arm 16. In other examples the support arm 16 may be fixed length.
  • FIG. 13 shows a hook 18 affixed to the one end of the support arm, in the present example the support arm being an adjustable version including a first arm section 16A as explained with reference to FIG. 12. The hook 18 may be welded proximate the end of the first arm section 16A. FIG. 14 shows another example in which the hook 18 is configured to pass through an opening proximate the one end of the first arm section 16A. The hook 18 may suspend the hanger rail (10 in FIG. 11) as explained with reference to FIG. 11. The examples shown in FIGS. 13 and 14 are equally applicable to both fixed length and adjustable length support arms.
  • A hanger and rail combination as described herein may enable more dimensional choices in mounting of product hangers than hangers mounted in fixed positions.
  • In other examples, the faceplate (12B in FIG. 8) may be omitted entirely, and the hanger may include only the hook and mounting tab.
  • While the invention has been described with respect to a limited number of embodiments, those skilled in the art, having benefit of this disclosure, will appreciate that other embodiments can be devised which do not depart from the scope of the invention as disclosed herein. Accordingly, the scope of the invention should be limited only by the attached claims.
