Claims21
A retail merchandise tray assembly comprising:
- a product support frame extending longitudinally between a first frame end and a second frame end parallel to a first longitudinal axis, the product support frame defining a product support surface, the product support frame including:
- a first load bearing member extending longitudinally between a first end and a second end parallel to the first longitudinal axis, the first load bearing member having a first end portion proximate the first frame end, a top of the first end portion being more proximate the product support surface than a bottom of the first end portion;
- a first lateral member operably attached to the load bearing member, the first lateral member extending perpendicular to the first longitudinal axis along a second longitudinal axis, the first lateral member being proximate the first frame end and positioned offset from the top of the first end portion to form a gap between a top of the first end portion of the first load bearing member and a bottom of the first lateral member;
- and
- a first front stop hinge rotatably mountable on the first lateral member for rotation about the first lateral member between a first angular position and a second angular position, the first front stop hinge configured to abut the first load bearing member when in the first angular position preventing removal of the first front stop hinge from the first lateral member and to slide through the gap when in the second angular position such that the first front stop hinge is axially slidable along the first lateral member parallel to the second axis to remove and to mount the first front stop hinge relative to the first lateral member when in the second angular position.

- wherein:
- the first front stop hinge is removable from and mountable to the first lateral member when the first front stop hinge is in the second angular position;
- and
- the first front stop hinge is not removable from or mountable to the first lateral member when the first front stop hinge is in the first angular position.
