Abstract

A system for securing a horizontal display component on different brands of slotted vertical rails, where the different brands of slotted vertical rails have different distances between the vertical rails, and different distances between slots. The system includes a pair of brackets, which slidably adjust their horizontal positions on the horizontal display component. Each of the brackets include a bracket front, secured to a bracket back, at a spacing which slidably encloses a horizontal member of the horizontal display component. A first hook is affixed to the bracket. A vertically slidable lower is slidable on the bracket. The vertically slidable lower has a second hook. The second hook has a slidably variable distance from said first hook, so that the first and second hooks may engage different pairs of said slots at their different distances.

Claims (47)

1. A system for securing a horizontal display component, to mount on a plurality of different sets of pairs of slotted vertical rails, said slotted vertical rails having different distances between the pairs of slotted vertical rails, and different distances between slots, said system including:

a pair of brackets, each of said brackets including:

a bracket front, secured to

a bracket back, at a spacing which slidably attaches a horizontal member of said horizontal display component;

a first hook affixed to said bracket;

a lower, vertically slidable on said bracket;

said vertically slidable lower having a second hook, which second hook has a slidably variable distance from said first hook.

2. A system according to claim 1 in which the pair of brackets include:

a left bracket; and

a right bracket;

the right bracket has:

its front and back as mirror images of

the front and back of the left bracket;

and the vertically slidable lower of the left bracket is interchangeable with the a vertically slidable lower of the right bracket.

3. A system according to claim 2 in which the bracket front is secured to the bracket back, by:

a back hole in the bracket back,

a front hole in the bracket front, coaxial to the back hole,

a screw, screwed through the front and back holes, by which bracket front is secured to the bracket back.

4. A system according to claim 3 in which the horizontal display component is a wire form, said wire form having a horizontal member to which the brackets are slidably attached.

5. A system according to claim 4 in which a tray is mounted to the wire form.

6. A system according to claim 1 in which the bracket front is secured to the bracket back, by:

a back hole in the bracket back,

a front hole in the bracket front, coaxial to the back hole,

a screw, screwed through the front and back holes, by which bracket front is secured to the bracket back.

7. A system according to claim 1 in which the horizontal display component is a wire form, said wire form having a horizontal member to which the brackets are slidably attached.

8. A system according to claim 7 in which a tray is mounted to the wire form.

9. A system for securing a horizontal display component, to mount on a plurality of different sets of pairs of slotted vertical rails, said slotted vertical rails having different distances between the pairs of slotted vertical rails, and different distances between slots, said system including:

a pair of brackets, which slidably adjust their horizontal positions on said horizontal display component,

each of said brackets including:

a bracket front, secured to

a bracket back, at a spacing which slidably encloses a horizontal member of said horizontal display component;

a first hook affixed to said bracket;

a vertically slidable lower, slidably enclosed by said bracket front, and said bracket back,

said vertically slidable lower having a second hook, which second hook has a slidably variable distance from said first hook, so that the first and second hooks may engage different pairs of said slots at their different distances;

the pair of brackets include:

a left bracket; and

a right bracket;

the right bracket has:

its front and back as mirror images of

the front and back of the left bracket;

the vertically slidable lower of the left bracket is interchangeable with the a vertically slidable lower of the right bracket;

the bracket front is secured to the bracket back, by:

a back hole in the bracket back,

a front hole in the bracket front, coaxial to the back hole,

a screw, screwed through the front and back holes, by which bracket front is secured to the bracket back,

the horizontal display component is a wire form, said wire form having a horizontal member to which the brackets are slidably attached; and

a tray is mounted to the wire form.
