ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a quickly releasable removably engaged light source for use with a display shelf. A shortened display shelf having a top and bottom, a front and a back edge is mounted to a wall such as the back edge of the display shelf has an air-gap between it and the surface to which it is mounted. A removable light support member is releasably engaged with the back edge of the shelf. On the back of the light support member, there is a light attached thereon. The distance between the back of the removable light support and the surface to which the shelf is mounted is such that an air-gap is created between them so that the quickly releasable support member and attached light can be removed from the shelf without the light on the back of the removable light support member hitting the surface. The present invention can also be used in display units wherein a shortened shelf is held within the display unit and a air-gap is created between the back edge of the shortened shelf held within the display unit and the back wall of the display unit. The air-gap is sized such that when the quickly releasable light support member is engaged with the back edge of the shortened shelf, there is sufficient room between the back of the releasable light support member and the rear wall of the display unit so that the light attached to the back of the releasable light support member can be easily removed from the display unit without hitting the rear wall of the display unit.
