Rack systems, devices, and methods for attaching and providing foldable storage racks underneath refrigerator shelves or cabinets or other shelves for suspending, storing and separating wine bottles and beverage cans and plates. The storage racks can include a plurality of bail cradles each having ends pivotally attached to brackets. The bail cradles can have concave support surfaces for supporting and separating bottles and cans. The bail cradles can have ribbed upper surfaces for allowing a shelf/tray to slide thereon. The racks can have pivotal vertical legs with a slide out drawer on lower ends of the legs. The racks can be used for storing other items such as computer keyboards and the like, used with desks, tables, and the like. The foldable storage racks can have horizontally adjustable and vertical adjustable clamp ends for allowing the assemblies to be mounted to the front and rear ends of different length, different width and different thickness refrigerator shelves.

Adjustable organizer shelf system and assemblies for use with an appliance are provided. Shelf assembly includes a pair of brackets and a fixed shelf mounted between the brackets. Shelf assembly also includes a movable shelf with a pair of rear lower hinges and a pair of lower guides. Shelf assembly also includes a lifting arm assembly attaching the movable shelf to the brackets. The lifting arm assembly can include a pair of lifting arms attached to each of the brackets. Lifting arm assembly also include an upper rear hinge affixed to each bracket, an upper guide affixed to each bracket, and a roller disposed within each of the upper guides and lower guides. The end of each lifting arm can be fastened to one of the rollers disposed with each of the guides.

A refrigerator having a first storage compartment with a first storage space and a movable shelf assembly disposed in the first storage space, wherein the movable shelf assembly includes a movable shelf movably disposed in the first storage space, a plurality of links, one end of each of the links being pivotably coupled to each of both sides of the movable shelf, and a driver coupled to the other end of each of the links such that each link pivots, wherein the driver is configured to move each link forwardly and outwardly of the first storage space and, at the same time, to pivot each link.

A drawer assembly for an appliance includes a drawer front providing selective access to a drawer recess, a handle assembly attached to the drawer front, and a slide assembly attached to the drawer front. The slide assembly includes a fixed slide mounted to the appliance, a sliding support coupling the drawer front to the fixed slide, and a catch lever operably coupled to the fixed slide and the sliding support. The catch lever is movable between an engaged position and a disengaged position to selectively fix the sliding support relative to the fixed slide.

A refrigerator includes: a cabinet in which a storage compartment is formed; a refrigerator door for opening and closing the storage compartment; a rack which can move from an initial position to a door opening position to open the refrigerator door; a driving motor which generates a driving force to move the rack; a power transmission unit which transmits power of the driving motor to the rack; a rotation detection unit which detects a rotation number of the driving motor; and a controller that controls the driving motor based on information on the rotation number detected by the rotation detection unit, in which the controller may control the driving motor to a first state until the rack moves from the door opening position to a reference position and may control the driving motor to a second state until the rack moves from the reference position to the initial position.

A storage plate arrangement for installation in a household refrigeration appliance has a first storage plate and a second storage plate, which is separate from the first storage plate, and a carrier frame. The first storage plate and the second storage plate are arranged on the carrier frame. The carrier frame has a guiding arrangement and a storage plate can be displaced by the guiding arrangement relative to the carrier frame and to the other storage plate. The carrier frame is embodied as open when viewed in the peripheral direction. The carrier frame has a first side limb and an opposite-lying second side limb that is separate from the first side limb and the side limbs are connected to a connecting limb that is in turn separate from the side limbs. The connecting limb is a profile rail that is embodied from metal.

A refrigerator may include a shelf provided on a door and a shelf guard provided to be movable in front of the shelf so that a user can easily take out food.

A refrigerator appliance or a variable shelf assembly, as provided herein, may include a selectively-sealed shelf tube, a support piston, a shelving bracket, a first valve, and a second valve. The selectively-sealed shelf tube may define a fluid inlet to receive water therethrough and a fluid outlet to exhaust water therethrough. The support piston may be slidably disposed within the selectively-sealed shelf tube to move between a top position and a base position according to a volume of water within the selectively-sealed shelf tube. The shelving bracket may be fixed to the support piston to move therewith. The first valve may be upstream from the fluid inlet to selectively permit water thereto. The second valve may be downstream from the fluid outlet to selectively permit water from the variable shelf assembly.

A refrigerator appliance, as provided herein, may include a cabinet, a door, and a camera module. The cabinet may define a chilled chamber. The door may be rotatably hinged to the cabinet to provide selective access to the chilled chamber. The camera module may be movably mounted to the cabinet (e.g., above a support shelf). The camera module may be movable on the cabinet along a predefined direction between a retracted position proximal to a first end of the cabinet and an extended position proximal to a second end of the cabinet. The camera module may be directed at the chilled chamber in the extended position to capture an image thereof.

A shelf assembly for a refrigerator includes a frame assembly having front and rear frame members with respective front and rear channels. A panel includes first and second ends, wherein the first end is fully received in the front channel, and further wherein the second end is partially received in the rear channel. A spacer assembly includes a spacer member and one or more clip members extending upwardly from a base portion. The clip members are clipped to mounting apertures disposed on the second portion of the rear frame member. The spacer member is received through a receiving aperture disposed through the rear frame member. The spacer member extends into the rear channel and engages the second end of the panel when the spacer assembly is clipped to the rear frame member to retain the panel in the channels of the front and rear frame members.
