ABSTRACT:
A flip-up label holder for pivotal mounting on a cross bar at the outer end of a merchandise display hook device. The label holder, formed by extrusion of relatively thin, somewhat flexible plastic material is arranged to be mounted by store personnel for pivotal movement on a cross bar at the end of a display hook. An improved form of mounting clip is provided on the label holder to simultaneously facilitate the initial mounting of the label holder on the cross bar, and to enhance the security by which the label holder is retained thereon, to minimize accidental dislodgement of the label holder from its mounted position. A mounting clip on the back of the label holder defines a narrow throat through which the cross bar is forced when mounting the label holder. The new label holder includes one or more angularly disposed rib-like projections engageable with the cross bar during a mounting operation to facilitate the action of camming open the mounting clip at the throat. Once the cross bar is passed through the throat, these same rib-like projections act to inhibit return passage of the cross bar through the throat in an opposite direction thus retaining the label holder more securely on the cross bar.
