Shelf assembly and holding strut therefor

A shelf assembly, in particular for a domestic cooling device, includes a receiving plate having a front plate edge, a rear plate edge and two lateral plate edges, and a holding strut on at least one of the lateral plate edges for supporting the receiving plate. The holding strut has in the region of a rear strut end at least one hook structure for fitting the holding strut into a mounting opening of a carrying structure. At a distance beneath the hook structure, the holding strut forms a first support structure for support on a front side, facing the strut, of the carrying structure. The holding strut, in the region of the rear strut end, at a distance above the first support structure, provides a resiliently deflectable second support structure for support on the front side, facing the strut, of the carrying structure.

REFRIGERATOR DEAD SPACE STORAGE SYSTEMS

Storage systems for use in consumer appliances are provided. Storage system can be a storage assembly defining a vertical direction, a lateral direction, and a transverse direction, the vertical, lateral, and transverse directions being mutually perpendicular. The storage assembly includes a mounting bracket, a first mounting tab and a second mounting tab extending in the transverse direction from a first end of the mounting bracket. The first mounting tab and the second mounting tab are configured to be inserted into a mounting track disposed within the consumer appliance. The storage assembly also includes a storage receptacle which is supported at a second end of the mounting bracket.

REFRIGERATOR APPLIANCE

A refrigerator appliance includes a housing, a mullion, and a biasing element. The housing defines an internal cavity and door frame that accesses the internal cavity. The mullion is disposed within the cavity and divides the cavity into a freezer compartment and a refrigerator compartment. A position of the mullion is adjustable within the cavity such that movement of the mullion away from the freezer compartment and toward the refrigerator compartment increases a volume of the freezer compartment and decreases a volume of the refrigerator compartment, and such that movement of the mullion away from the refrigerator compartment and toward the freezer the compartment decreases the volume of the freezer compartment and increases the volume of the refrigerator compartment. The biasing element is secured to the housing and the mullion. The biasing element is configured to bias the mullion toward the freezer compartment.

Refrigerator with magnetic bin system

A refrigerator includes a housing defining an interior compartment with an open side and a door rotatably coupled with the housing. The door includes a liner defining an outer attachment surface and an opposite inner surface. The attachment surface includes a plurality of indicia corresponding with a plurality of predetermined attachment locations along the attachment surface. The door further includes a plurality of first magnetic components adjacent the interior surface and aligned with respective ones of the indicia. The refrigerator further includes a storage component defining a mounting surface having an area smaller than the attachment surface. The storage component includes a second magnetic component selectively releasably attachable to the liner at a selected one of the predetermined attachment locations by mutual attraction between the first magnetic component corresponding with the selected one of the predetermined attachment locations and the second magnetic component.

Refrigerator drawer assembly

A refrigerator drawer assembly, comprising: a drawer body, the drawer body comprising a front wall and a rear wall arranged opposite to each other along the pulling direction thereof, and defining an accommodating cavity used for placing articles, wherein the front wall is provided with two first sliding grooves extending along the horizontal direction and running along the thickness direction thereof, and the rear wall is provided with two second sliding grooves aligned with the two first sliding grooves; and two sliding partition assemblies, wherein two ends of each sliding partition assembly are inserted into a set of a first sliding groove and a second sliding groove that are aligned, and the two sliding partition assemblies are configured to be able to slide along the first sliding grooves and the second sliding grooves and are capable of sliding to a fitted state. The drawer assembly may achieve two-chamber separation and three-chamber separation of the drawer body, thereby effectively improving the user experience.

Shelf with specific center web for separate plate elements

A shelf for a household refrigeration appliance includes a shelf plate having a first plate element and a separate second plate element. The second plate element is disposed next to the first plate element in a use position in the widthwise direction of the shelf to form the shelf plate and the second plate element can be removed non-destructively to make the shelf plate smaller. A carrier frame only borders the edges of the shelf plate. The shelf has a center web oriented in the depthwise direction of the shelf. Both plate elements rest on the center web in their use position.
