BACKGROUND
Wall fixtures systems are commonly used in retail and wholesale stores for hanging and displaying merchandise. Such systems typically include one or more pegboards supported in an upright configuration by various frames and or supports. Once assembled, hooks, baskets, and other peg-able accessories may be supported therefrom for holding and displaying various merchandise. The systems may also be used as temporary walls or room dividers.
The components of known wall fixture systems are typically attached together with screws, bolts, nails, or other semi-permanent fasteners and are therefore difficult and time consuming to assemble and disassemble. This is a problem for many seasonal stores because they often need to quickly install numerous such wall fixture systems and then quickly remove them shortly after the seasonal sales are over. Moreover, many seasonal stores are typically staffed by young and/or inexperienced employees who have little to no experience with assembling wall fixtures systems.
Accordingly, there is a need for an improved wall fixture system that overcomes the limitations of the prior art.
SUMMARY
The present invention solves the above-described problems and provides a distinct advance in the art of wall fixture systems. More particularly, the present invention provides a wall fixture system that can be quickly and easily assembled into various different configurations without the use of tools, screws, nails or other such fasteners and that can be subsequently disassembled in the same manner.
One embodiment of the wall fixture system comprises a center panel and a pair of supports for supporting the center panel in an upright configuration. The center panel comprises a pegboard for receiving hooks, shelves, baskets, or other accessories, and a frame at least partially surrounding the pegboard. The frame has a plurality of hooks along one of its outer edges. The supports are positioned on opposite sides of the center panel, and each has a plurality of slots along one of its inner edges for receiving the hooks on the frame and thereby supporting the center panel between the supports without the use of screws, nails, or other semi-permanent fasteners.
The frame of the center panel includes several frame components that may be joined together without the use of screws, nails or other semi-permanent fasteners. For example, an embodiment of the frame comprises a frame bottom, a pair of frame uprights each having a connection leg received within the frame bottom, and a frame top having connection legs received within the frame uprights. The connection legs of the frame uprights may be locked in the frame bottom with integral spring locks. Likewise, the connection legs of the frame uprights may be locked in the bottom frame with integral spring locks.
Another embodiment of the wall fixture system comprises a pair of center panels, a corner leg support, and a pair of end supports. Each center panel comprises a pegboard for receiving hooks, shelves, baskets, or other accessories, and a frame at least partially surrounding the pegboard. An embodiment of the frame includes a horizontally-extending frame bottom, a horizontally-extending frame top, and a pair of vertically-extending frame uprights. The frame bottom, frame top, and frame uprights each have connection members that cooperatively join the frame bottom, frame top, and frame uprights to one another without the use of screws, nails, or other semi-permanent fasteners. The frame uprights each have a plurality of hooks along one of its outer edges.
The corner leg support joins the two center panels at a right angle relative to one another without the use of screws, nails, or other semi-permanent fasteners. The end supports are positioned on opposite sides of the two center panels. Each end support has a plurality of slots along one of its inner edges for receiving the hooks on one of the frames and thereby supporting one of the center panels between the end support and the corner leg support without the use of screws, nails, or other semi-permanent fasteners.
The components of the wall fixture systems described herein can be assembled into a virtually limitless number of configurations, also without using screws and other such fasteners. Thus, the wall fixture systems of the present invention are especially suited for stores and other establishments that require highly functional, yet easy to assemble, merchandise display systems and/or divider walls.

The frame tops 26, which are illustrated in FIGS. 10 and 11, each include a horizontally-extending section 52 and a pair of downwardly-projecting connection legs 54. As shown in FIG. 11, the horizontally-extending section includes an outer U-channel 56 and an inwardly facing U-channel 58. The outer channel is wider than the inner channel so as to form a pair of pegboard-receiving grooves 60 therebetween.
The connection legs 54 extend perpendicularly from the outer edges of the horizontally-extending section 52, and in one embodiment, are each formed of ¾″ square steel tubing. A spring lock 42 is inserted in the open end of each connection leg. Each connection leg 54 may then be inserted into the connection tube 40 of one of the frame uprights 22 as shown in FIG. 12 and described in more detail below.
The frame bottoms 24, which are illustrated in FIGS. 13 and 14, each include an outer U-channel 62 and an inwardly facing U-channel 64. The outer channel 62 is wider than the inner channel so as to form a pair of pegboard-receiving grooves 66 therebetween. The ends of the inner channel each has a cover that forms an open-ended connection tube 68. Holes are formed in the connection tubes 68 for receiving the spring buttons 50 of the spring locks 42 as described in more detail below.
One of the T-legs 14 is illustrated in FIG. 16. The T-legs may be of any size, and in one embodiment are approximately 96″ tall. Each T-leg includes a vertically-extending support rod 70 connected to a horizontally-extending base 72. A pair of diagonally-extending support braces 74 help support the vertically-extending support rod on the base. A plurality of evenly-spaced slots 76 are formed along the inner and outer edges of the support rod 70 for receiving the hooks 38 of the center panels 12 as described in more detail below. A pair of levelers 78 or feet may be screwed into the bottom of the base. In one embodiment, the support rod, base, and support braces are fanned of 1½″×1″ metal tubing.
One of the corner leg supports 16a is illustrated in FIG. 17. The corner leg supports 16a may be of any size, and in one embodiment are 96″ tall and are formed from 1½″×1½″ square tubing. A plurality of evenly-spaced slots 80 are formed along all of the outer edges of each corner leg, and a leveler or foot 78 may be screwed into the bottom of each corner leg.
Assembly of the wall fixture systems 10 and 10a illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2 will now be described with reference to FIGS. 15 and 18-28. First, a center panel 12 is assembled by laying a frame upright 22 on a sturdy surface with its grooves pointing up as illustrated in FIG. 18. The connection leg 30 of the frame upright 22 is then inserted into one of the connection tubes 68 of a frame bottom 24 as shown in FIG. 15. While connecting the frame upright 22 and frame bottom 24, the spring button 50 projecting from the connection leg 30 must be manually depressed. The connection is secured when the spring button 50 pops through the hole in the connection tube 68 of the frame bottom 24 and locks into place, as shown in FIG. 19.
A pegboard panel is then slid into one of the grooves 66 of the frame bottom 24 and then one of the grooves 36 of the frame upright 22 as shown in FIG. 20. It may be desirable to have a painted side of the pegboard facing out as depicted in FIG. 21.
The connection leg 30 of another frame upright 22 is then slid into the free end of the frame bottom 24 as shown in FIG. 22 while lining up the frame upright groove 36 with the pegboard panel 18. The frame upright 22 and frame bottom 24 are locked together with a spring lock 42 in the connection leg 30 as described above.
The connection legs 54of a frame top 26 are then inserted into the free ends of the frame uprights 22 as depicted in FIG. 23. The pegboard panel 18 must be lined-up with one of the grooves 60 in the frame top. The connection is secured when the spring buttons in the connection legs 54 lock into place as shown in FIG. 24 and described above.
A fully assembled center panel 12 is shown in FIG. 25 in its upright orientation. The center panel 12 may then be supported between two T-leg supports 14 to form the moveable wall fixture 10 of FIG. 1 or two center panels may be used to create the wall fixture 10a of FIG. 2.
To create the wall fixture 10 of FIG. 1, the hooks 38 on one side of the center panel are inserted into the slots 76 in the T-leg support and then pressed down as shown in FIGS. 26 and 27. Then, a second T-leg is attached to the opposite end of the center panel using the same method.
To create the wall fixture 10a of FIG. 2, the hooks 38 on one side of a first center panel 12 are inserted into the slots in a first T-leg and then pressed down as shown in FIGS. 26 and 27. Then, a corner leg support 16a is attached to the opposite side of the center panel using the same method. Then, a second T-leg is attached to a second center panel, and the second center panel is joined to the corner leg support as shown in FIG. 28.
Larger and/or more elaborate wall fixtures may be assembled by connecting additional center panels 12, T-leg supports 14, and/or corner leg supports 16a. For example, FIGS. 29 and 30 illustrate wall fixture system 10c and 10d constructed in accordance with additional embodiments of the invention. As shown in FIG. 31, the wall fixture system 10d broadly comprises two center panels 12d, two end panels 82d, and three T-leg supports 14d. The center panels 12d are a different size than the center panels 12 described above but are otherwise the same and will therefore not be described in detail. Likewise, the T-leg supports 14d are the same as the T-leg supports 14 described above and will not be described again. However, the end panels 82d are different than the panels used to assemble the wall fixture systems 10 and 10a and are therefore described in detail below.
As shown in FIG. 38, each end panel 82d broadly comprises three pegboards 84d and a frame 86d. In one embodiment, two of the pegboards are 12″ wide×60″ long and the third is 24″ wide×60″ long.
The frame 86d at least partially surrounds and supports the pegboards , and in one embodiment, includes a pair of opposed frame uprights 88d positioned on opposite sides of the pegboards, a frame bottom 90d positioned along the bottom edge of the pegboard, a frame top 92d positioned along the top edge of the pegboard, and a center attachment 94d positioned between the two smaller pegboards.
The frame uprights 88d are essentially identical to the frame uprights 22 illustrated in FIGS. 4-6 and described above. Each frame upright 88d includes a vertically-extending section 96d and a horizontally-extending connection leg 98d. A spring lock 42 is positioned in each of the connection legs as described above.
The frame tops 92d, which are illustrated in FIGS. 39 and 41, each include a horizontally-extending section 100d and three depending connection legs 102d. As shown in FIG. 40, the horizontally-extending section 100d includes an outer U-channel 104d and an inwardly facing U-channel 106d. The outer channel is wider than the inner channel so as to form a pair of pegboard-receiving grooves 108d therebetween.
The connection legs 102d of each frame top 92d extend perpendicularly from the outer edges and the midpoint of the horizontally-extending section, and in one embodiment, are each formed of ¾″ square steel tubing. A spring lock 42 as described above is inserted in the open end of the two outer connection legs. The outer connection legs may be inserted into the connection tubes of the frame uprights 88d as shown in FIG. 41 and as described below. Similarly, the middle connection leg may be inserted in the connection tube of the center attachment 94d.
The frame bottoms 90d, which are illustrated in FIGS. 42-44, each include an outer U-channel 110d and an inwardly facing U-channel 112d. The outer channel is wider than the inner channel so as to form a pair of pegboard-receiving grooves 114d therebetween. The ends of the inner channel each has a cover that forms an open-ended connection tube 116d. Holes are formed in the connection tubes for receiving the spring buttons 50 of the spring locks 42 as described in more detail below. A connection leg 118d extends upwardly from the midpoint of the frame bottom.
The center attachments 94d are illustrated in FIGS. 45-47 and each includes an elongated inner U-channel 120d with connection tubes 122d on its two ends in which the connection legs 102d, 118d of a frame top 92d and a frame bottom 90d are received. Each center attachment 94d also includes an elongated outer channel 124d on which a plurality of hooks 126d are supported.
Assembly of the wall fixture system 10d shown in FIG. 31 will now be described with reference to FIGS. 32-37 and FIGS. 48-64. First, two center panels 12d as shown in FIG. 32 are assembled. Referring to FIG. 33, a frame bottom 24d is placed on a sturdy surface with its grooves facing up. The connection leg of a frame upright 22d is then slid into the connection tubing of the frame bottom. The connection is secure when the spring button in the connection leg locks into place as depicted in FIG. 34.
Two pegboard panels 18d are then slid into the grooves of the frame bottom 24d and frame upright 22d as shown in FIG. 35. It may be desirable to have the painted side of the pegboards facing out.
Another frame upright 22d is then inserted into the frame bottom 24d as depicted in FIG. 36. The frame upright should be slid in place by lining up the pegboard panels with the grooves in the frame upright. The connection is secure when the spring button in the connection leg of the frame upright locks into place.
The connection legs of a frame top 26d are then slid into the connection tubes of the two frame uprights as depicted in FIG. 37. The frame top should be slid into place by lining up the pegboard panels with the grooves in the frame top while inserting the connection legs into the connection tubes of the frame uprights. The connection is secure when the spring buttons lock into place. These steps are then repeated to create a second center panel.
The assembly of one of the end panels 82d will now be described with reference to FIGS. 48-60. First, a frame upright 88d is placed on a sturdy surface with its connection leg 98d pointing up as depicted in FIG. 48. The connection tubing 116d of a frame bottom 90d is then slid over the connection leg. The connection is secure when the spring button 42 in the connection leg locks into place as depicted in FIG. 49.
A smaller pegboard panel 84d is then slid into the front groove (closest to assembler) of the frame upright 88d and frame bottom 90d as depicted in FIG. 50. It may be desirable to have the painted side of the pegboard facing out (towards installer) as depicted in FIG. 51.
A center attachment 94d is then slid along the top edge of the pegboard panel and seated onto the connection leg 118d of the frame bottom 90d as depicted in FIGS. 52 and 53. The hooks on the center attachment should face out and point toward the frame bottom.
A larger pegboard panel 84d is then slid into the rear groove of the frame upright 88d and frame bottom 90d as depicted in FIG. 54. It may be desirable to have the painted side of the pegboard panel facing out as depicted in FIG. 55.
A second small pegboard panel 84d is then slid into the front groove of the center attachment 94d and frame bottom 90d as depicted in FIG. 56. The painted side of the pegboard should be facing out as depicted in FIG. 57.
The connection leg 98dof a second frame upright 88d is then slid into the free end of the frame bottom 90d as depicted in FIG. 58. The pegboard panel should be lined-up with the grooves in the frame upright. The connection is secured by making sure that the spring button in the connection leg locks into place as depicted in FIG. 59.
The connection legs 102d of a frame top 92d are then inserted into the free ends of the two frame uprights 88d and the center attachment as depicted in FIG. 60. The pegboard panels should be lined-up with the grooves in the frame top as the frame top is being attached. The connection is secured by making sure that the spring buttons in the two outer connection legs lock into place. The above steps are then repeated to create another end panel.
Once two center panels 12d and two end panels 82d have been assembled as described above, they are attached to three T-leg supports 14d to create the wall fixture depicted in FIG. 30. First, one of the center panels 12d is attached to a T-leg support 14d by inserting the hooks on the center panel into the slots in the T-leg support and pressing down as depicted in FIGS. 61 and 62. The points on the hooks must point down. A T-leg support 14d is then attached to the opposite side of the center panel using the same method as above as depicted in FIG. 63.
The two end panels 82d are then attached to the outside of the T-leg supports 14d by inserting the hooks that are located on the center attachments on the end panel frames into the slots on the T-leg supports and pressing down.
Although the invention has been described with reference to the preferred embodiment illustrated in the attached drawing figures, it is noted that equivalents may be employed and substitutions made herein without departing from the scope of the invention as recited in the claims. For example, wall fixture components described herein may be assembled into a virtually limitless number of different wall fixture systems. The claims of the invention are not limited to the wall fixture system examples described and illustrated herein.
