ABSTRACT:
A stackable wire cube is for use in a modular display rack for displaying and selling merchandise and includes a flat, solid base, a first set of a first plurality of elongated members, a second set of a first plurality of elongated members and a second plurality of inverted U-shaped members. Each elongated member is formed from a steel wire. Each inverted U-shaped member is formed from a steel wire and has a first side portion, a second side portion and a top portion. The first and second side portions have a first top end and a second top end, respectively, and a first bottom end and a second bottom end, respectively. The top portion is adjacent to the first and second top ends of the first and second side portions. Prior to having been formed into the inverted U-shaped members the steel wires were disposed parallel to and spaced apart from each other a particular distance so that the first and second sets of elongated members are disposed parallel to, coaxially aligned with and spaced apart from each other a particular distance and are mechanically coupled to first and second side portions, respectively, to form vertical rows and horizontal columns of criss-crossing steel wires. The steel wires at the first and second top ends are bent to form the inverted U-shaped members and at the first and second bottom ends are bent to form an offset. The flat, solid base is formed out of sheet metal and is mechanically coupled to the U-shaped members at the first and second bottom ends to form the stackable wire cube.
