An extendable shelf for a display rack permits the shelf to be pulled out to permit stocking and product rotation and permits it to be used in different sizes. A wire shelf is formed of hingedly connected sections with their sides connected to telescoping sheet metal side support brackets. The side support brackets are constructed and mounted so that they may be positioned to extend vertically either above or below plane of the wire shelving to selectively form side edges of the shelf. The rearmost section of the shelf when pivoted out of the plane of the shelf and held by a detent may contact product on the shelf to pull the product forward when the shelf is pulled out. This will allow restocking of fresh product at the rearmost section of the shelf when it is again pivoted down to the plane of the shelf.

An extendable shelf for a display rack, the shelf being extendable to provide a deeper shelf area, the shelf being of the type used on display racks having vertical support members, a pair of spaced apart side support members, a pair of spaced apart side support brackets, and a spaced wire shelf bottom extending between the side support brackets, the brackets being connected to the vertical supports for attaching the shelf to a form part of a display rack, with improvements for making the shelf extendable to provide a deeper shelf area and for allowing restocking of packages behind packages on the shelf at the time of restocking, the improvements comprising; each of the side support brackets being in at least two sections, an outermost section and an innermost section, means telescopically mounting the side support brackets sections with regard to each other, the shelf bottom being formed of at least two movably related sections with the outermost section attached to the outermost section of the side support brackets and movable therewith to decrease the depth of the shelf when the side support brackets are telescoped inwardly with respect to each other, and package-contacting means extending above the plane of the shelf bottom and across the length of outermost shelf bottom section at the base portion thereof and movable therewith for contacting packages and moving the packages forwardly as the shelf is pulled out thereby moving packages on the outermost shelf bottom section forward and to thereby allow restocking of fresh packages to the rear of the shelf behind the package-contacting member.
