The disclosed system relates to display systems for consumer products.
The present invention is directed to a display assembly comprising an elongate support channel, at least one mount bracket, and a display housing. The support channel has a back plate, a top rail extending from a top of the back plate, and a bottom rail extending from a bottom of the back plate. The mount bracket is secured to a back side of the channel back plate. The display housing comprises an elongate base, a graphic insert, and a transparent insert. The elongate base has a rear base wall, an upper channel guide extending from an upper edge of the base wall, and a lower channel guide extending from a lower edge of the base wall. The upper channel guide defines a first upper channel proximate the base wall and a second upper channel separated a predetermined distance from the first upper channel, each of the first and second upper channels spanning a length of the upper channel guide. The lower channel guide defines a first lower channel proximate the base wall and a second lower channel separated the predetermined distance from the lower channel, each of the first and second lower channels spanning a length of the lower channel guide. The first upper channel opposes the first lower channel and the second upper channel opposes the second lower channel. The graphic insert is adapted to be disposed in the first upper channel and the first lower channel. The transparent insert is adapted to be disposed in the second upper channel and the second lower channel. The display housing is adapted to be received by the support channel such that a back side of the base wall abuts a front side of the back.
In an alternative embodiment, the present invention is directed to a display system comprising a display rack and a display assembly. The display rack comprises a plurality of upright supports, at least one cross member connected between at least two of the plurality of upright supports, and at least one product shelf connected to the plurality of upright supports, where the product shelf is adapted to support at least one product for display. The display assembly comprises an elongate support channel, at least one mount bracket, and a display housing. The support channel has a rear channel wall, a top rail extending from a top of the back wall, and a bottom rail extending from a bottom of the wall. The mount bracket is secured to a back side of the channel wall and is adapted to be secured to at least one cross member of the rack. The display housing comprises an elongate base, a graphic insert, and a transparent insert. The elongate base has a rear base wall, an upper channel guide extending from an upper edge of the base wall, and a lower channel guide extending from a lower edge of the base wall. The upper channel guide defines a first upper channel proximate the base wall and a second upper channel separated a predetermined distance from the first upper channel, each of the first and second upper channels spanning a length of the upper channel guide. The lower channel guide defines a first lower channel proximate the base wall and a second lower channel separated the predetermined distance from the lower channel, each of the first and second lower channels spanning a length of the lower channel guide. The first upper channel opposes the first lower channel and the second upper channel opposes the second lower channel. The graphic insert is adapted to be disposed in the first upper channel and the first lower channel. The transparent insert is adapted to be disposed in the second upper channel and the second lower channel. The display housing is adapted to be received by the support channel such that a back side of the base wall abuts a front side of the channel wall.

The upper channel guide 54 extends from an upper edge 60 of the base wall 52, and the lower channel guide 56 extends from a bottom edge 62 of the base wall. Preferably, the upper channel guide 54 and the lower channel guide 56 define a plurality of continuous and opposing channels spanning a length of the base wall 52. The upper channel guide 54 defines a first upper channel 64 proximate the base wall 52 and a second upper channel 66 separated a predetermined distance from the first upper channel. The lower channel guide 56 defines a first lower channel 68 proximate the base wall 52 and a second lower channel 70 separated the predetermined distance from the first lower channel. The first upper channel 64 opposes the first lower channel 68. The second upper channel 66 opposes the second lower channel 70. Preferably, the predetermined distance will be approximately 1 inch.
