End frame for display structure

A combination comprising:

• an end frame assembly comprising:
• an elongated post defining and extending between a bottom end and a top end,
• an arm coupled to and extending away from the top end of the elongated post to define a free end opposite the elongated post, the arm defining an internal cavity and including a bottom panel defining two or more slots extending longitudinally through the bottom panel of the arm between the free end and the elongated post, wherein each of the two or more slots provides access to the internal cavity,
• a sign holder defining a top edge including a rail section, wherein the rail section of the sign holder slidably couples with the arm via one of the two or more slots and is at least partially maintained within the internal cavity of the arm, and the sign holder extends through the one of the two or more slots and hangs downwardly from the bottom panel of the arm, and
• a support frame including a top segment, a bottom segment opposite the top segment, and a side segment connecting the top segment to the bottom segment, wherein the top segment is coupled to the bottom panel of the arm;
• and
• a product display structure defining a substantially vertically extending side edge and a top edge, wherein the elongated post of the end frame assembly is coupled to the substantially vertically extending side edge of the product display structure, and the bottom segment of the support frame of the end frame assembly rests on the top edge of the product display structure to provide additional support to the arm.

An end frame assembly configured to be coupled to a product display structure, the end frame assembly comprising:

• an elongated post defining and extending between a bottom end and a top end;
• an arm coupled to and extending away from the top end of the elongated post to define a free end opposite the elongated post, the arm defining an internal cavity and including a bottom panel defining two or more slots extending longitudinally through the bottom panel of the arm between the free end and the elongated post, wherein each of the two or more slots provides access to the internal cavity;
• a sign holder defining a top edge including a rail section, wherein the rail section of the sign holder slidably couples with the arm via one of the two or more slots and is at least partially maintained within the internal cavity of the arm, and the sign holder extends through the one of the two or more slots and hangs downwardly from the bottom panel of the arm;
• and
• a support frame including a top segment, a bottom segment opposite the top segment, and a side segment connecting the top segment to the bottom segment, wherein the top segment is coupled to the bottom panel of the arm;
• wherein the side segment is coupled to the elongated post.

A display system including:

• a display structure including:
• two substantially vertically extending supports spaced from one another,
• product supports extending between the two substantially vertically extending supports and being configured to support products being offered for sale, and
• a top edge extending from one of the two substantially vertically extending supports to the other of the two substantially vertically extending supports,
• wherein the two substantially vertically extending supports each define a substantially vertically extending array of apertures;
• and
• an auxiliary assembly including:
• an elongated coupling member defining a top portion and being positioned directly adjacent one of the two substantially vertically extending supports, wherein the elongated coupling member defines an interior surface facing toward the other one of the two substantially vertically extending supports,
• a sign support member cantilevering from the top portion of the elongated coupling member toward the other one of the two substantially vertically extending supports, and
• a hook bracket coupled to the interior surface of the elongated coupling member and including prongs spaced from the interior surface of the elongated coupling member and extending substantially parallel to the interior surface of the elongated coupling member;
• wherein:
• the elongated coupling member is coupled to the one of the two substantially vertically extending supports by placing each of the prongs of the hook bracket in a different aperture of the substantially vertically extending array of apertures defined by the one of the two substantially vertically extending supports to couple the auxiliary assembly to the display structure such that the sign support member extends over the top edge of the display structure,
• the auxiliary assembly further comprises a substantially C-shaped support frame including a first length, a second length extending from an end of the first length in a first direction substantially perpendicular to the first length, and a third length extending from an end of the second length opposite the first length in a second direction substantially parallel to the first length,
• the first length is coupled to the sign support member,
• the second length is coupled to the elongated coupling member, and
• the third length is coupled to the top edge of the display structure.

A method of installing an end frame assembly on a display structure, the method comprising:

• providing a primary structure including an elongated post and an arm extending away from a top end of the elongated post in a direction substantially perpendicular to an extension of the elongated post;
• positioning the primary structure relative to the display structure, wherein the display structure includes two opposing substantially vertical supports and product supports positioned between the two opposing substantially vertical supports, and positioning the primary structure includes placing the elongated post adjacent one of the two opposing substantially vertical supports opposite the other one of the two opposing substantially vertical supports and placing the arm to extend over a topmost edge of the display structure;
• selectively coupling the elongated post to the one of the two opposing substantially vertical supports;
• hanging one or more signs from the arm of the primary structure;
• coupling a support frame to the topmost edge of the display structure, wherein:
• the support frame is substantially C-shaped defining a first segment, a second segment extending downwardly from the first segment, and a third segment extending from the second segment opposite the first segment and extending substantially parallel to the first segment, and
• coupling the support frame to the topmost edge of the display structure includes securing the third segment of the support frame to the topmost edge of the display structure;
• and
• coupling the in the first segment of the support frame to the arm.
