Abstract
An inventory counting article pusher display tray system includes an elongate track having a front end, a rear wall, and a floor for positioning a row of articles thereon for movement along the track. The track further defines a series of longitudinally spaced numbers visible from above the track and extending rearwardly from the track front end, for indicating the number of articles in or removed from the row. A pusher is connected to the track for movement therealong and has a front side for engagement with a rearmost article on the track. A spring urges the pusher toward the track end of said track so as to move all articles on the track toward the track front. A reflective panel is secured to the pusher for movement as a unit along the floor, the reflective panel being disposed below the floor and angled relative to the floor so as to project substantially forwardly one of the numbers reflecting the position of the pusher along the track.

12. An inventory counting article pusher display tray system comprising:
-
(A) an elongate track having a front end and a rear wall and including a floor for positioning a row of articles thereon for movement along said track, said track further defining a series of longitudinally spaced numbers extending rearwardly from said front end for indicating the number of articles in or removed from the row;
each of said numbers being flat and inflexible, said series of numbers lying in a horizontal plane and being disposed on a downwardly facing surface of said floor;(B) a pusher connected to said track for movement therealong and having a front side for engagement with a rearmost article on said track; (C) spring means for urging said pusher toward said front end of said track so as to move all articles on said track toward said track front end, said spring means being a self-coiling spring for urging said pusher toward said track front end, said spring comprising a strip of spring material wound at least partially to form a coiled portion defining a coil axis, said coiled portion being arranged such that said coiled portion is extended as said pusher is moved toward said track rear end; (D) a reflective panel secured to said pusher for movement as a unit along said floor, said reflective panel being disposed below said floor and angled relative to said floor at about 45°
so as to project substantially forwardly one of said numbers corresponding to the position of said pusher along said track;
said reflective panel projecting the one number immediately thereabove forwardly such that said one number is visible from said track front end. - View Dependent Claims (13)
