Abstract

A modular system for displaying and/or storing vaping products is provided. The system has a base plate and at least two support members. The support members can be removably attached to the base plate. A back plate and a plurality of shelving plates are also provided. The shelving plates can be removably attached to the support members at different heights and at least one of the shelving plates is angled so that vaping products stored thereon lean on the front edge of the adjacent shelving plate that is higher or the back plate. At least one of the shelving plates may have apertures for receiving a portion of the vaping products. Specially designed inserts are also provided for adapting atomizers or other vaping accessories to be stored. The inserts may have holes with 510 thread.

Claims (22)

1. A modular system for displaying and storing vaping products, comprising:

a base plate having peripheral side, front and back edges;

at least one upright wall;

at least two support members;

a plurality of shelving plates, each having shelving plate front, side and back peripheral edges; and

at least one back plate;

wherein

the at least one upright wall is configured to removably connect to the base plate at the back peripheral edge of the base plate and extending upwardly from the base plate;

one of the at least two support members is configured to removably connect to the side peripheral edges of the base plate, another one of the at least two support members is positioned between the peripheral side edges on opposite sides of the base plate, the at least two support members extending upwardly from the base plate,

the plurality of shelving plates are configured to removably connect and extend between the at least two support members, and at least one of the plurality of shelving plates extends at an angle above a horizontal plane from front to back so that the shelving plate front peripheral edge is higher than the shelving plate back peripheral edge, and

the back plate is upright and configured to removably connect between the at least two support members at a rear area thereof, such that it extends adjacent and above the shelving plate rear edge allowing vaping products to be placed on the at least one angled shelving plate and be supported by the back plate.

2. The modular system for displaying and storing vaping products of claim 1 further comprising an additional shelving plate removably positioned above said angled shelving plate and offset rearwardly from said angled shelving plate, such that vaping products resting on said angled shelving plate may rest against a front edge of said upper shelving plate.

3. The modular system as recited in claim 2 wherein the upper shelving plate front edge includes contours, recesses and/or apertures configured to receive vape products.

4. The modular system as recited in claim 3 wherein said vape products are selected from atomizers, tanks, rebuildable dripping atomizers (or RDA's), rebuildable tank atomozers (RTA's), sub-ohm tanks, clearomizers, cartomizers, ordrip tips or a combination thereof.

5. The modular system as recited in claim 1 wherein the back plate includes recessed portions and/or apertures adapted to accept portions of the vape products sitting on said angled shelving plate.

6. The modular system of claim 1 wherein the base plate is substantially rectangular.

7. The modular system of claim 1 wherein

the base plate is configured with base plate apertures, and

the at least one wall and the at least two support members are configured with protrusions configured to be removably received in the base plate apertures to connect the at least one wall and the at least two support members to the base plate.

8. The modular system of claim 1 wherein

the at least two support members are configured with support member apertures, and

the at least one back plate and the plurality of shelving plates are configured with plate protrusions configured to be removably received in the support member apertures to connect the at least one back plate and the plurality of shelving plates to the at least two support members.
