发明名称 GRAVITY FED MERCHANDISING SYSTEM
摘要 A product merchandising system is provided which is particularly useful for supporting and displaying baseball and/or softball gloves and mitts. The merchandising system includes an upright store fixture and at least one hanger arm coupled with the upright store fixture. The hanger arm has (i) a gravity slide portion extending forwardly and angularly downward from a location on the front side of the upright store fixture, (ii) a stop member disposed on the gravity slide portion near the lower end thereof, (iii) a front portion extending forwardly from the lower end of the gravity slide portion, and (iv) a support device at the forward end of the front portion. At least one product/clip combination is suspended from the hanger arm. The product/clip combination comprises a product (e.g., a baseball or softball glove or mitt) and a clip releasably engaging a predetermined portion of the product. The clip has a hook configured to releasably engage the hanger arm at any location rearward of the support device and to suspend the product/clip combination therefrom. The hook and the gravity slide portion of the hanger arm are configured to enable a product/clip combination suspended from the hanger arm to slide downward along the gravity slide portion under the influence of gravity when the hook engages the gravity slide portion. Each product/clip combination is removable from the hanger arm by moving the clip laterally relative to the hanger arm thereby to unhook the product/clip combination from the hanger arm. The system enables products to be organized (e.g., by quality, type, price, etc.) and for information about the products to be displayed to make it simple and efficient for a customer to make a selection of a product that meets the customer's particular needs.
