1. An electronic display tag attachment system, comprising:
- a rail for receiving an electronic display tag therein, the rail including;
a backing having a top edge and a bottom edge;
an upper flange extending from said top edge;
a lower flange extending from said bottom edge, said upper and lower flanges defining a channel therebetween for receiving a tag therein; and
a plurality of spaced protrusions extending into said channel to block significant lateral movement of a tag positioned in said channel along a length of said rail, each protrusion being spaced apart from any adjacent protrusions.

Abstract
An adapter clip for receiving an auxiliary rail having an upper slot and a lower slot, the adapter clip being shaped to be received in a shelf edge having an upper and lower groove. The adapter clip includes an upper flange and a lower flange, the upper and lower flanges being shaped to be received in the upper and lower groove, respectively, to thereby couple the adapter clip to the shelf edge. The adapter clip further includes an upper tang and a lower tang, the upper and lower tangs being shaped to be received in the upper and lower slot, respectively, to thereby couple the adapter clip to the auxiliary rail.

31. An electronic display tag attachment system, comprising:
-
a rail for receiving an electronic display tag therein, the rail including;
a backing having a top edge and a bottom edge;
an upper flange extending from said top edge;
a lower flange extending from said bottom edge, said upper and lower flanges defining a channel therebetween for receiving a tag therein; and
a plurality of protrusions extending into said channel and along a length of said channel, at least one of said protrusions having an end surface spaced away from an end surface of said rail that extends generally perpendicular to any lateral movement of said tag to engage said tag and block significant lateral movement of said tag along a length of said rail, each protrusion being laterally spaced apart from any adjacent protrusions. - View Dependent Claims (32, 33, 34, 35, 36)
