Abstract

A merchandiser assembly includes a base and a plurality of support hoops having lower ends, wherein the lower ends may be secured adjacent to the base. The hoops may define a gap formed between the hoops for containing rolled articles from movement in a transverse direction. The assembly further comprises a rest rail attached across the gap so as to contain rolled articles from movement in a forward direction perpendicular to said transverse direction. The rest rail may include a rest surface and be adjustable between a tall and short orientation, wherein when the rest rail is in the tall orientation, the rest surface is at a greater distance from the base than when the rest rail is in the short orientation, so as to allow the rail to be adjusted to support rolled articles of multiple lengths.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A merchandiser assembly comprising: 
 a base;    a plurality of support hoops having lower ends, wherein said lower ends are secured adjacent to said base and wherein said hoops define a gap formed therebetween for containing rolled articles from movement in a transverse direction; and    a rest rail attached across said gap so as to contain rolled articles from movement in a forward direction perpendicular to said transverse direction, said rest rail comprising a rest surface and being adjustable between a tall and short orientation, wherein when said rest rail is in said tall orientation, said rest surface is at a greater distance from said base than when said rest rail is in said short orientation, so as to allow the rail to be adjusted to support rolled articles of multiple lengths.    
   
   
       2 . The merchandiser assembly of  claim 1 , wherein said rest rail is removeably secured to at least one of said support hoops.  
   
   
       3 . The merchandiser assembly of  claim 1 , wherein said lower ends of said support hoops are removeably secured to said base.  
   
   
       4 . The merchandiser assembly of  claim 1 , wherein said merchandiser assembly further comprises a base arm mount having a plurality of apertures configured to removeably receive said lower ends of said support hoops.  
   
   
       5 . The merchandiser assembly of  claim 4 , wherein said lower ends of said plurality of said support hoops are removeably secured to said base arm mount.  
   
   
       6 . The merchandiser assembly of  claim 4 , wherein said base arm mount further comprises a mount lip configured to secure said base arm mount to said base.  
   
   
       7 . The merchandiser assembly of  claim 1 , wherein said base is a pallet.  
   
   
       8 . The merchandiser assembly of  claim 1  further comprising a rear rail.  
   
   
       9 . The merchandiser assembly of  claim 1 , wherein said base comprises channels configured to receive forks of a forklift.  
   
   
       10 . The merchandiser assembly of  claim 1 , wherein said articles are rugs.  
   
   
       11 . A merchandiser assembly comprising: 
 a base;    a plurality of support hoops having lower ends;    a base arm mount secured adjacent to said base, said base arm mount comprising a plurality of apertures configured to removeably receive said lower ends of said support hoops; and    a rest rail having a plurality of orientations, wherein said rest rail is configured to be removeably secured to at least one of said support hoops.    
   
   
       12 . The merchandiser assembly of  claim 11 , wherein said rest rail further comprises a rest surface, and wherein when said rest rail is in said tall orientation, said rest surface is at a greater distance from said base than when said rest rail is in said short orientation.  
   
   
       13 . The merchandiser assembly of  claim 11 , wherein said lower ends of said plurality of said support hoops are removeably secured to said base arm mount.  
   
   
       14 . The merchandiser assembly of  claim 11 , wherein said base arm mount is further comprised of mount lips configured to secure said base arm mount to said base.  
   
   
       15 . A merchandiser assembly comprising: 
 a base;    a plurality of support hoops having lower ends;    a plurality of base arm mounts secured adjacent to said base, said base arm mounts comprising a plurality of apertures configured to removeably receive said lower ends of said support hoops; and    a rest rail comprising a rest surface and a tall and short orientation, and wherein when said rest rail is in said tall orientation, said rest surface is at a greater distance from said base than when said rest rail is in said short orientation.    
   
   
       16 . The merchandiser assembly of  claim 15 , wherein said rest rail is removeably secured to at least one of said support hoops.
