Display rack construction
A display rack construction includes at least first and second grid assemblies in combination with a removable bracket assembly. The bracket assembly is designed to functionally join the grid assemblies and simultaneously act to support items for purposes of display. The combination of grid assemblies and bracket assembly provides a self-positioning display rack construction that is generally stable with respect to lateral movement of the individual grid assemblies.
1. A display rack construction comprising, in combination:
a first grid assembly including a plurality of rod members joined to form a first generally vertical support lattice, said first lattice including a first generally horizontal bracket support rod, a first generally vertical terminal lateral side edge and a first stop member attached to the first support rod and spaced horizontally from the first lateral side edge;
a second grid assembly including a plurality of rod members joined to form a second generally vertical support lattice, said second lattice including a second generally horizontal bracket support rod, a second generally vertical terminal lateral side edge for positioning parallel against the first lateral side edge and a second stop member attached to the second support rod and spaced horizontally from the second lateral side edge;
a bracket assembly for simultaneously engaging the first and second grid assemblies and holding said grid assemblies in a side by side array with their terminal side edges in substantial engagement, said bracket assembly including a first hook member for looping over and engaging said first bracket support rod and a second hook member spaced horizontally from the first hook member for looping over and engaging said second bracket support rod, said first hook member and second hook member spaced horizontally slightly greater than the horizontal spacing of the first and second stop members to thereby retain the grid assemblies joined in side by side array, said bracket assembly further including a cross member between the hook members, and a cantilever product retention support extending outwardly from and attached to the hook members, said cross member positioned to engage the lateral side edges of the grid assemblies for maintaining the cantilever support extended outwardly from the grid assemblies.
2. The display rack construction of claim 1 wherein the grid assemblies each comprise a rectangular array of connected rods comprising the horizontal support rod, the lateral side edge and the stop member.
3. The display rack construction of claim 1 wherein the cantilever product retention support comprises spaced projecting, generally horizontal rod assemblies for supporting the handles of a cleaning utensil.
