Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates generally to a bottle dispensation and marketing display assembly. More so, the present invention relates to a dispensation and display assembly that stores and dispenses individual bottles of a fluid in a housing defined by sidewalls forming apertures used for fastening the housing to a mounting surface, or detachable attachment of the housing to an adjacent housing for modular display arrangements, thereby allowing multiple housings to stack on top of each other for marketing and space-saving purposes; whereby the housing forms an inlet opening for loading bottles, an outlet opening for dispensing bottles, and a passageway connecting the inlet opening to the outlet opening, creating a gravity feed dispensing means, such that gravity urges the bottles to towards the passageway (bottles fall into place) while substantially maintaining alignment of the bottles at the outlet opening; and whereby an at least partially transparent case snaps onto one side of the housing to display an individual bottle, and an at least partially transparent raised panel snaps onto a second side of the housing to display a card.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The following background information may present examples of specific aspects of the prior art (e.g., without limitation, approaches, facts, or common wisdom) that, while expected to be helpful to further educate the reader as to additional aspects of the prior art, is not to be construed as limiting the present invention, or any embodiments thereof, to anything stated or implied therein or inferred thereupon.

Typically, consumable liquid bottles are used for containing eclectic beverages, foodstuffs, petroleum products, cosmetics, and the like. These bottled fluid-like products are optimally retailed when displayed in an attractive manner, and dispensed easily from their container. Often, beverage containers, such as bottles, are displayed and sold individually at grocery stores, gas stations, drug stores, convenience stores and liquor stores. Typically, the beverage containers are manually loaded onto a display rack, shelving unit, or refrigeration display unit.

In the shelving arrangement of a typical store there often is an unutilized area because the uppermost shelf generally is not stocked with bottles. This is because the higher level is usually inconvenient for stocking by a stockperson, as well as being inconvenient for a customer to remove bottles. This is especially true for any bottles which may be stocked in rows rearward of the aisle edge of such top shelf.

Other proposals have involved display and dispensing units for bottles in a retail environment. The problem with these display and dispensing units is that they do not magnify allow for convenient dispensing of the bottles in a gravity fed manner. Also, these units do not display the bottles in an effective marketing manner. Even though the above display and dispensing units meet some of the needs of the market, a modular bottle dispensation showcase assembly that displays bottles and provides easy access to the bottles while detachably mounting to a mounting surface, and stacking/linking in an ornamental arrangement with adjacent showcase assemblies, is still desired.

Furthermore, there is no intention to be bound by any expressed or implied theory presented in the preceding technical field, background, brief summary or the following detailed description. It is also to be understood that the specific devices and processes illustrated in the attached drawings, and described in the following specification, are simply exemplary embodiments of the inventive concepts defined in the appended claims. Specific dimensions and other physical characteristics relating to the embodiments disclosed herein are therefore not to be considered as limiting, unless the claims expressly state otherwise.

A bottle dispensation and marketing display assembly is referenced in FIGS. 1-7. The bottle dispensation and marketing display assembly, hereafter “assembly”, is configured to both dispense multiple bottles in an efficient, energy-free means, and also to ornamentally display the bottles, and cards describing the bottles in a unique assembly that can be mounted in a retail space with minimal shelf-space, and connected in a modular arrangement with other assemblies carrying similar or dissimilar bottles.

As referenced in FIG. 1, the showcase assembly 100 comprises at least one housing 102 that is sized and dimensioned to store, receive, and dispense multiple individual bottles 116a-e. The bottles 116a, 116b, 116c, 116d, 116e may include 50 ml bottles having a wide body and a narrow neck forming an opening (FIG. 1). Though in other embodiments, any type or size of bottle, and container of a fluid, can be used, as the showcase assembly 100 is scalable. The assembly 100 is designed for retail environments, where efficient display and dispensing is important.

The at least one housing 102 is defined by sidewalls 106a-d and a bottom base wall 104 forming a containment for the bottles in a cavity 110 that forms therein. The sidewalls 106a-d are defined by an upper end 124a and a lower end 124b that is disposed at a lower elevation than the upper end 124a when the housing 102 is operational, or mounted for display and dispensing the bottles 116a-e. The housing 102 also includes a bottom base wall 104 abutting the lower end 124b of the sidewalls 106a-d. A lid 108 fits over the upper end 124a of the sidewalls 106a-d. In some embodiments, the housing 102 may include a rectangular shape, and the sidewalls 106a-d are rigid, such as from a rigid polymer, metal material, rubber, or wood.

Turning now to FIG. 2, multiple mounting clips 114a-b are disposed at the junction of the sidewalls 106a-d and the lid 108. Mounting clips 114a-b allow housing to be mounted to a surface, such as a wall, nail, shelf, or other surface that mates with mounting clips 114a-b. In one non-limiting embodiment, two mounting clips 114a, 114b are on a first side of the sidewalls 106a. Mounting clips 114a-b are also operable to detachably attach to an adjacent housing in a colinear relationship.

Furthermore, multiple modular clip reception slots 120a, 120b form on a second side of the sidewalls 106b, opposite the side of the first sidewall having the mounting clips 114a-b. The modular clip reception slots 120a-b are sized and dimensioned to receive a corresponding mounting clips 114a-b of an adjacent housing. In this manner, multiple housings can be detachably joined together in a colinear relationship. This can be effective for magnifying the display effect, as different types of bottles can be arranged in a colinear, adjacent disposition.

In this manner, multiple housings to stack on top of each other for marketing and space-saving purposes. In one non-limiting embodiment, pegs or other protruding members may join the modular apertures. Though in other embodiments, the modular apertures have raised flanges that slid 108e into each other to form a locking relationship between housings.

For example, a pyramid arrangement of housings, with each housing containing a different type of bottle could be arranged. The housings could be loosely stacked, or detachably attached through modular apertures, as described below. By stacking the housings in various modular arrangements, space is saved and the bottles 116a-e can be presented in a more attractive way. Also by stacking multiple housings in such a manner, different brands and types of bottles 116a-e can be presented for optimal sales and display effect.

Turning now to FIG. 4, the housing forms an inlet opening 200 through at least one of the sidewalls 106a-d. In one embodiment, the upper edges of the sidewalls 106a-d define the inlet opening 200. The inlet opening 200 enables passage into a cavity 110 for containing the bottles 116a-e. Inlet opening 200 may be shaped and dimensioned to enable a hand to push through multiple bottles simultaneously.

The bottles 116a-e are stacked on each other, buttressing each other to create a snug structural reinforcement inside the housing 102. The base wall 104 and sidewalls 106a-d are sufficiently rigid to maintain this stacked arrangement. Through the inlet opening 200, the bottles 116a-e can be placed in the cavity 110 in an organized arrangement that allows the bottles 116a-e to fall from the elevated inlet opening 200 to a lower outlet opening 118 in a steady, gravity-fed manner. The outlet opening 118 may have a wide, U-shaped edge 118 that is sufficiently wide enough to enable more than one bottle to be dispensed therefrom. For example, the necks of the bottles 116a-e can be oriented in the same direction, towards the end of the housing 102 forming the outlet opening 118.

Looking at FIG. 3, the assembly 100 provides a lid 108 that detachably attaches to the sidewalls 106a-d to cover the inlet opening 200 and thereby, regulate access to the cavity 110. The lid can form a snap-fit relationship, or a slidable relationship with the sidewalls for opening and closing. In some embodiments, at least one lid fastener 408a, 408b fastens the lid 108 to the sidewalls 106a-d. Lid fastener 408a-d may include a threaded screw, a bolt, a magnet, and other fastening mechanism known in the art.

Looking now at FIG. 5, the sidewall housing 102 forms an inlet opening 200 for loading bottles 116a-e, an outlet opening 118 for dispensing bottles 116a-e, and a passageway through the cavity 110 connecting the inlet opening 200 to the outlet opening 118. When mounted or stacked, the housing 102 is oriented such that the inlet opening 200 is at a higher elevation than the outlet opening 118. This creates a gravity feed dispensing means, such that gravity urges the bottles 116a-e to towards the passageway when a bottle 116a is removed from the outlet opening 118, while substantially maintaining alignment of the bottles 116a-e at the outlet opening 118.

As shown in FIG. 2, the assembly 100 comprises at least one mount hole 204a, 204b that forms in the sidewall 106d. Mount hole 204a-b may have a shape that receives a peg, bolt, or other fastening mechanism from a peg board for attachment to a mounting surface, such as a peg board, wall, a shelf, and a table. Mount hole 204a-b may include two-spaced-apart mount holes, or possible more than two mount holes. An alternative embodiment of mount holes 600a, 600b, shown in FIG. 6B, are larger than mount holes 204a-b. The larger mount holes 600a-b are displayable when the panel 202 is detached from housing 102. In one non-limiting embodiment, the mount hole 204a-b includes threaded or tapered bolts, screws, magnets, adhesives, and other mounting means known in the art.

Looking at FIG. 5, the showcase assembly 100 also provides at least one case 112a-b that provides unique showcasing of the bottle 116d. In one non-limiting embodiment, the case 112a-b is elongated to match the length of the bottle, and has a rounded shape that ends at two edges. The case 112a-b is at least partially transparent and detachably attaches, or snaps, onto one side of the housing 102 in a friction fit coupling relationship. In one embodiment, multiple case tabs 402a, 402b, 402c, 402d extend from the case 112. The sidewalls 106a-d form multiple case holes 404a, 404b, 404c, 404d that are aligned with the case tabs 402a-d. The case tabs 402a-d mate with corresponding case holes 404a-d in the sidewall in a snap-fit relationship, such that the case 112 detachably attaches to the housing 102.

While attached to the housing, and containing bottles, the case 112a-b is sized and dimensioned to prominently display the bottle 116d that is contained in the housing 102. The case 112a-b allows the bottle 116d to display in a clear, prominent manner from the housing 102. In this manner, a consumer will not have to remove a bottle from the housing 102 to view the labeling, contents, and shape of the bottle.

In another marketing component, the showcase assembly 100 provides at least one panel 202 to display a card or placard, often used in retail environments. The panel 202 that is sized to enable a card or placard to slide between the sidewall and the panel 202. The displayed card may include information about the bottle or contents therein. For example, a description of a beverage, a nutrient count, and a price may display on the card. The panel 202 is configured to detachably attaches to the housing for retaining a card.

FIGS. 6A and 6B illustrate the bottle dispensation and marketing display assembly with and without the panel attached to the housing, where FIG. 6A shows a rear view of the assembly with the panel attached to a front sidewall 106a, and FIG. 6B shows a rear view of the assembly with the panel 202 detached from the rear sidewall 106b of the housing 102. It is significant to note that the panels can be detachably attached on any of the sidewalls 106a-d. The panel 202 is at least partially transparent, and detachably fastens, or snaps onto a second sidewall 106d of the housing 102 in a friction fit coupling relationship.

In one embodiment, multiple panel tabs 400a, 400b, 400c, 400d extend from the case 112. The sidewalls 106a-d form multiple panel holes 406a, 406b, 406c, 406d that are aligned with the panel tabs 400a-d. The panel tabs 400a-d mate with corresponding panel holes 406a-d in the sidewall in a snap-fit relationship, such that the panel 202 detachably attaches to the housing 102. Thus, the operational aspects of the showcase assembly 100 remain the same, even while the bottle display means are changeable. The panel 202 is sized to enable a card or placard to slide between the sidewall and the panel 202. The displayed card may include information about the bottle or contents therein. For example, a description of a beverage, a nutrient count, and a price may display on the card.

In an alternative embodiment, FIG. 7 illustrates, two cases 700a, 700b attached to the housing 102. The two cases 700a-b can be used simultaneously to display one or two different bottles 116d, 200e from both ends of the housing 102. This can be useful for presenting the bottles 116d, 200e from both sides of a shelf or display area. Thus, as a bottle 116a is removed from the outlet opening 118, a subsequent bottle 116b replaces the removed bottle.

In conclusion, a bottle dispensation and marketing display assembly 100 for controlling access to multiple bottles 116a-e containing a fluid-like product that are housed for individual display and sale at grocery stores, gas stations, drug stores, and convenience stores. The assembly 100 is unique in that it provides great stability in mounting to a mounting surface, and flexibility in a display arrangement with adjacent assemblies through modular connectivity.

The assembly 100 is also unique in that an attached transparent case retains one bottle for display, and an at least partially transparent panel 202 retains an information card, business card, or other marketing card to provide bottle-pertinent information. The card creates optimal viewing and information gathering of the bottles contained within. Further, the assembly 100 utilizes gravity feed dispensing means to dispense the bottles, such that when removing a first bottle from an outlet opening, gravity causes a subsequent bottle quickly falls to the outlet opening in a controlled, aligned manner.

These and other advantages of the invention will be further understood and appreciated by those skilled in the art by reference to the following written specification, claims and appended drawings.
