ESL LOCKING MECHANISM

摘要

According to the invention an ESL and ESL holder combination comprises a locking mechanism for releasably securing the ESL to said ESL holder and an ESL provided with at least one gripping means for cooperative engagement with said ESL holder. A protruding, spring loaded locking element is arranged on the ESL for cooperative engagement with said shelf edge rail. The ESL holder is attachable to the edge of a shelf, said ESL holder being provided with one or more receiving means such as slots for receiving said gripping means and said locking element in cooperative engagement. The spring loaded locking element arranged adjacent to said gripping means and positioned on the ESL such that the spring loaded locking element cannot enter the receiving means on said ESL holder during insertion of the gripping means into the receiving means, and such that it enters the receiving means by spring action when the gripping means is brought into a hooked position, in said receiving means. Thereby, the spring loaded locking element prevents removal of the ESL from the ESL holder unless the spring loaded locking element is retracted from its receiving means and allows for the gripping means to leave its hooked position.
