ABSTRACT:
A dispensing rack for use in a refrigerated environment for dispensing a leading item from a stack of items which includes a housing adapted to receive the items in associated ramps releasably secured within the housing by a plurality of horizontal connecting rods. One of the connecting rods engages abutment posts extending downwardly from the ramps and another connecting rod engages a rear flange extending downwardly from the ramp. The connecting rod engaging the rear flange is positioned at a horizontal plane above the horizontal plane of the connecting rod engaging the abutment post so that the ramps are generally forwardly inclined. In such an inclined position, when the leading item in the stack of items within each ramp is withdrawn, the next leading item is placed into a convenient position to be withdrawn as a result of the positive gravity feed of each ramp. The ends of each connecting rod are also cooperatively retained to a corresponding horizontal retention member formed within the housing by clip retention means.
