Abstract

A display rack incorporates an interlocking divider system that facilitates convenient installation and flexible adjustment of dividers to separate and organize displayed items such as produce, meat products, and the like. Also, a display rack may incorporate a divider array system, alone or in combination with interlocking dividers, having two or more horizontal divider mounting sections for convenient installation and flexible adjustment of dividers to provide an increased number of display options. The interlocking divider system allows easy installation of vertical dividers at different lateral positions along the display rack. Each vertical divider is configured for interlocking engagement with one or more horizontal dividers. In particular, each horizontal divider and vertical divider defines one or more mounting slots that interlock with one another to provide selective mounting of the vertical divider. The horizontal dividers can be formed with a unique bracket configuration that allows ready selection of horizontal divider depth by switching between different sides of the bracket. The divider array system incorporates two or more horizontal divider mounting sections disposed adjacent one another in a single rack. This configuration allows two or more horizontal dividers to be mounted not only at different heights, but also at different lateral positions along the rack. In this manner, an array of horizontal dividers can be distributed across the surface of the support member at different heights and lateral positions, enabling flexible selection of a greater variety of display and organization arrangements.
