Moveable base for retail gondola
An example base for a retail gondola can include: a frame defining a locator configured to receive a bottom portion of the retail gondola; and a plurality of bolts held by the frame, the plurality of bolts being moveable up and down to position the frame relative to a support surface; wherein a portion of each of the plurality of bolts is configured to allow the frame to be slid along the support surface.
1. A base for a retail gondola, the base comprising:
a frame defining a locator, the locator being configured to receive a bottom portion of the retail gondola therein;
a plurality of bolts held by the frame, the plurality of bolts being moveable up and down to position the frame relative to a support surface; and
inner and outer rails extending upwardly from an upper surface of the frame and extending along a substantial length of the frame, the inner and outer rails defining a channel between the inner and outer rails for receiving the bottom portion of the retail gondola;
wherein a portion of each of the plurality of bolts is configured to allow the frame to be slid along the support surface when the retail gondola is received within the frame.
2. The base of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of bolts is threaded into the frame.
3. The base of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of bolts defines a head surface configured to slide along the support surface.
4. The base of claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of locators, with each of the plurality of locators being configured to receive the retail gondola.
5. The base of claim 4 , wherein each of the plurality of locators is circular.
6. The base of claim 1 , wherein the base is configured to be connected with another base.
7. A system, comprising:
a stand-alone retail gondola;
a base for the stand-alone retail gondola, the base comprising:
a frame defining a locator, the locator being configured to receive a bottom portion of the stand-alone retail gondola therein, the bottom portion including a foot of the stand-alone retail gondola, with the foot being received in the locator;
a plurality of bolts held by the frame, the plurality of bolts being moveable up and down to position the frame relative to a support surface; and
inner and outer rails extending upwardly from an upper surface of the frame and extending along a substantial length of the frame, the inner and outer rails defining a channel between the inner and outer rails for receiving the bottom portion of the stand-alone retail gondola;
wherein a portion of each of the plurality of bolts is configured to allow the frame to be slid along the support surface when the stand-alone retail gondola is received within the frame.
8. The system of claim 7 , wherein each of the plurality of bolts is threaded into the frame.
9. The system of claim 7 , wherein each of the plurality of bolts defines a head surface configured to slide along the support surface.
10. The system of claim 7 , further comprising a plurality of locators, with each of the plurality of locators being configured to receive the stand-alone retail gondola.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein each of the plurality of locators is circular.
12. The system of claim 7 , wherein the base is configured to be connected with another base.
13. A method for supporting a stand-alone retail gondola, the method comprising:
providing a base for the stand-alone retail gondola, the base including:
a frame defining a locator, the locator being configured to receive a bottom portion of the stand-alone retail gondola therein, the bottom portion including a foot of the stand-alone retail gondola, with the foot being received in the locator; and
inner and outer rails extending upwardly from an upper surface of the frame and extending along a substantial length of the frame, the inner and outer rails defining a channel between the inner and outer rails for receiving the bottom portion of the stand-alone retail gondola;
positioning a plurality of bolts held by the frame, the plurality of bolts being moveable up and down to position the frame relative to a support surface; and
allowing a portion of each of the plurality of bolts to be slid along the support surface when the stand-alone retail gondola is received within the frame.
14. The method of claim 13 , further comprising threading each of the plurality of bolts into the frame.
15. The method of claim 13 , wherein each of the plurality of bolts defines a head surface configured to slide along the support surface.
16. The method of claim 13 , further comprising providing a plurality of locators, with each of the plurality of locators being configured to receive the stand-alone retail gondola.
17. The method of claim 13 , further comprising connecting the frame with another base.
