Shelf tray system
First Claim
1. A shelving system comprising:
- an extruded shelf divider including a generally vertical panel having a longitudinal extension and defining a horizontally-extending slot, and a generally horizontal panel having a longitudinal extension and defining a horizontal support surface, said vertical and horizontal panels being co-extruded and substantially co-extensive;
a pusher element having a tab positioned within and slidable along said slot on said vertical panel, and also having a pusher face cantilevered with respect to said vertical panel and extending over said horizontal support surface; and
a biasing element biasing said pusher element toward a first end of said shelf divider such that products supported on said horizontal support surface are urged toward said first end of said shelf divider by said pusher element.

Abstract
A self-facing, add-on shelf system is made up of universal base, divider, front, and rear sections. Universal in the sense that these sections form basic building sections for constructing shelf systems of various sizes and operational mode. The front and rear track sections are identical and can be combined with various combinations of bases, dividers and end sections to provide systems of different, desired widths. The depth of the self-facing shelf is generally set by the depth of the shelf with which it is to be used. The individual sections can be selected and combined to provide center pusher, side pusher, and gravity feed types of self facing systems. The bases, dividers and end sections are configured such that they can be extruded and interlock in assembly.
