ABSTRACT:
A gravity flow rack system specifically designed for use in dispensers of cylindrical- or conical-shaped lightweight plastic containers such as disposable yogurt tubs has inclined shelves supporting container flow channels, each of such channels defined by a pair of elongated rails extending from a rear end to a forward lower end of the shelf and terminating at an L-shaped seat or cradle adapted to receive a lower-most of such containers as it reaches the forward end of the channel, and present that lower-most container in an inviting, easy-to-view, label-up orientation for consumer viewing, while remaining containers stacked upstream of the lower-most container in the same channel are generally obscured from view in order to deter inventory mishandling.
