Abstract
A system for displaying flowers having a display platform having a plurality of coded receptacles for receiving coded flower containers, a plurality of coded flower containers located within corresponding coded flower receptacles, and a characteristic code on each coded receptacle and each coded flower container identifying a flower characteristic. The coded flower containers are constructed of disposable, water-impermeable material, and the characteristic code identifies aspects such as price, species, and freshness or expiration date of flowers. The characteristic codes on the coded receptacles and the coded flower containers enable a salesperson to quickly set up a flower display by placing the coded flower containers in the coded receptacles having matching characteristic codes.
Description
- The present invention relates to a system for displaying fresh cut flowers for retail sale, and more particularly, to a coded modular bucket system for displaying and replenishing flowers to be sold inside a flower cooler.
- Selling a perishable commodity such as freshly cut flowers in a retail environment has many challenges. Flowers typically are displayed in a cooler having several shelves for flower buckets. Different types of flowers are placed within the buckets at random locations throughout the display cooler. These flower buckets are typically plastic, and each bucket must be cleaned and disinfected before a new set of flowers is placed within each flower bucket, otherwise mold and bacteria can harm the new flowers. The labor cost associated with cleaning and maintaining these flower buckets can quickly cut into the profits of a flower retailer, such as supermarkets and mass markets.
- Organizing and sorting new flowers for sale is an ongoing problem. Retail flower displays are typically a mixture of various types of flowers placed at random throughout the display cooler. A customer must sort through numerous types of flowers to find the type or price of flower he or she desires. Moreover, a flower clerk, associate, or flower manager, has the non-enviable task of trying to determine which types or species of flowers need to be restocked, and which of the currently displayed flower types or species are becoming too old or past their freshness date. This task requires the flower manager to be extremely familiar with flowers and the specific flower display-arrangement. A passing clerk, associate, or store manager is generally unable to determine, by looking at the flower display, which flowers need to be replaced or which flowers are becoming too old to sell. These additional skills required of an employee increases labor cost and reduces profit.
- Furthermore, flower assortments are typically sent by growers to retailers in unmarked, plastic, ten-inch diameter buckets. Eight bunches of mixed or similar type flowers are generally shipped in each bucket. Upon receiving the flower buckets full of flowers from a grower, a skilled flower manager or clerk must recognize and determine which specific types of flowers are located within each bucket. The skilled flower person must then organize and transfer each specific flower bunch to the proper location within the retail display, such as a flower cooler. This process takes additional time and requires skilled labor to accomplish, which further cuts into a retailer's profit.
- Accordingly, it would be desirable to provide a flower display format and system enabling a typical out of department clerk, associate or store manager, who does not possess expertise in flowers, to quickly determine which flower species need to be restocked in a flower display and which flowers are too old to sell.
- In order to overcome these deficiencies in the prior art, an object of the present invention is to provide a system for coding a display case and flower buckets so that an out of department clerk or store manager, who does not have any special knowledge of flowers, can quickly determine if a species of flowers needs to be restocked or replaced.
- Another object of the present invention to eliminate labor cost associated with cleaning the flower buckets of a flower display case by using disposable flower buckets.
- A further object of the present invention is to provide a system enabling a typical clerk or flower associate to quickly organize newly received flowers from a grower and place the appropriate types of flowers at pre-designated locations within a retail flower display.
- In order to achieve these objects, the present invention provides a system for displaying flowers having a display platform with a plurality of coded receptacles for receiving coded flower containers, a plurality of coded flower containers located within corresponding coded flower receptacles, and a characteristic code on each coded receptacle and each coded flower container identifying a flower characteristic. The coded flower containers are preferably constructed of disposable, water-impermeable treated paper buckets that hold water for at least twenty days, and a characteristic code can identify price, species, and expiration date of flowers. The coded receptacles further enable a clerk or floral associate to quickly organize a retail flower display by matching the characteristic codes of the flower buckets with the characteristic codes of the flower receptacles. Additionally, the disposable flower containers eliminate the labor cost and time delay associated with cleaning and maintaining conventional, reusable flower buckets.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a retail display cooler of freshly cut flowers featuring color-coded buckets and receptacles configured in accordance with the present invention; and -
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a table flower display configured in accordance with the present invention. - While the invention will be described in connection with the preferred embodiments, there is no intent to limit the invention to those embodiments. On the contrary, the intent is to cover all its alternatives, modifications, and equivalents included within the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the claims.
- Turning now to the drawings,
FIG. 1 illustrates aflower display 10 configured in accordance with a first embodiment of the present invention. Acooler cabinet 11 includesglass sides 9 withglass doors 13 having handles 14. Thecooler cabinet 11 includesshelves flower buckets cabinet 11 andshelves frame 15 of thecooler cabinet 11 generally is constructed of steel. The cooler cabinet includes a compressor (not shown) for cooling. - In accordance with a first aspect of the present invention, the
flower buckets flower buckets - Milk cartons are typically constructed of polyethylene-coated paper-board. In aseptic versions of drink-filled cartons, aluminum foil lamina is generally incorporated. U.S. Pat. No. 4,691,858, issued to Peer, Jr., which is hereby incorporated by reference, teaches numerous materials and processes for constructing disposable water-impermeable material for milk cartons, which can be the same material for constructing the
disposable flower buckets flower buckets disposable flower buckets - In accordance with a further aspect of the present invention, the
flower cooler cabinet 11 providesshelves flower containers receptacles receptacles shelves hole 36 passing completely through theshelf 18. Flowers of the same species, or potted plants, may be located within a single flower bucket.Pon poms 40,daisies 42, orroses 44. Similar flowers may also include bulb type flowers, such as tulips. Furthermore, aflower bucket 38 may include mixedbouquets 46 or consumer bunches. - As shown in
FIG. 1 , each flower container orbucket pon poms 40 are held in afirst flower container 20,daisies 42 are held in asecond flower container 22, androses 44 are held in athird flower container 24. Each species of flower is associated with a code characteristic, such as color. For example,pon poms 40 are held incontainers 20 having apurple color 50,daisies 42 are held incontainer 22 having ayellow color 52, androses 44 are held incontainers containers 24 havingred color 54. Similarly,purple containers 20 are placed inpurple receptacles 30,yellow containers 22 are placed inyellow receptacles 32, andred containers 24 are placed inred receptacles 34, and so forth. The coloring 50,52,54 of the flower containers orbuckets flower containers receptacles inside rim 55,top surface 56, orperiphery 57 of thereceptacles - The color code of the flower container or bucket indicates which flower type or species is located within each bucket. Specific flower species, or groups of flowers, are placed within specifically colored flower containers. In this manner, a salesperson can quickly prepare and fill a flower display by simply placing the color coded buckets in a matching color coded receptacle. In a similar manner, a salesperson or store manager can quickly determine which flower buckets having a particular type or types of flowers need to be restocked by observing the color of the empty or available colored receptacles.
- Moreover, a
flower bucket 38 may be coded by aring 39 on theperiphery 41, or by the wrappingpaper 26 surrounding theflowers 46 within thebucket 38. The variations for marking the flower buckets can be quite numerous. Additionally, coding can be achieved by methods other than color, such as graphic designs, symbols, or even pictures. Furthermore, the coding characteristic of theflower buckets receptacles - While the
receptacles shelves receptacles 37 may include a hole passing completely through theshelf 18. If thereceptacle 37 includes a hole, abottom portion 28 of the flower bucket may pass through theshelf 18. Furthermore, thereceptacles 36 may simply be a designatedlocation 56 on theshelf 19, designated by a circle orring 57 on the flat, top surface of theshelf 19. Thering 57 is preferably colored to identify the proper flower species container or bucket to be place at that location. - Referring now to
