Abstract
The present invention is directed to a display cabinet provided with a compartment. The compartment is divided into at least two spaces by a shelf for storing and displaying merchandise. The shelf is provided with a frame element which is slidably supported thereon. The frame element is supported on the shelf with a gap therebetween and determines the storage space for merchandise when the frame is placed in its normal position. When the frame element is pulled forward, the merchandise on the shelf is gathered by the frame and pushed to the front of the shelf for easy access. This also forms a space for loading additional merchandise in the back of the shelf. A stopper element is disposed at the front of the shelf to prevent merchandise from falling off the shelf when the frame element is pulled forward.
