Abstract (en)

A merchandise display system (1) for displaying items of merchandise on a support has vertically spaced first and second rods extending outwardly from the support. A time delay mechanism (21) is mounted on the upper rod (3) and includes a pair of pivotally mounted plates (23,25) which are selectively moveable into and out of blocking engagement with the lower rod (5) on which the items of merchandise are slidably supported. An item of merchandise is moveable past the forwardmost plate (25) from a space between the plates for removal from a free end of the lower rod while the rearward plate (23) prevents movement of another item of merchandise into the intervening space until the forward plate moves to the blocking position and the rear plate moves to an unblocking position. A magnetically actuated lock mechanism (59) locks the rear plate in an adjusted linear position with respect to the front plate to adjust the intervening space.
