Abstract
An adjustable shelf support structure adaptable for use in combination with existing refrigerated display coolers and other types of product merchandising display equipment including first and second members which are engageable with each other such that the first and second members can be moved relative to each other to change the overall width of the support structure, the first and second members further including a mechanism for varying the effective length of the support structure so as to change the overall depth thereof, the first and second members when engaged with each other being capable of both width and depth adjustment to accommodate the varying width and depth dimensions associated with existing product merchandising display equipment. The present shelf support structure can be seated on existing support clips which are attached to upright support members commonly associated with existing display equipment, the support clips being selectively engageable with such upright support members at various intermediate locations therealong so as to orient the present support structure in either a substantially fiat horizontal position or in an inclined position for gravity feed operations.
