Method for temperature monitoring and regulation and systems therefor
A monitoring and control system is provided. The system includes a plurality of sensors for obtaining readings associated with food items, such as temperature readings, freshness indications, and the like. The system is scalable and configurable with each sensor being capable of functioning as an individual sensor and/or as part of a grouping of sensors. The system is configured to obtain a variety of information, such as ambient air temperature, dwell time of food items, moisture levels, and the like, thereby enabling the system to recognize current and future concerns. The system provides audio and visual warnings and visual displays. In some embodiments, the system performs one or more physical operation based on one or more detected condition. The system is further configured to distinguish between accurate readings and inaccurate readings and/or to otherwise determine if an obstacle is preventing a sensor from obtaining an accurate reading.
Refrigerator
The present disclosure is relates to a refrigerator. The refrigerator includes first storage for defining a first storage space therein, a door for opening and closing the first storage space, and a plurality of shelves installed in the first storage space for placing an object thereon. The shelf includes a frame having a plurality of support bars for loading a plurality of wine bottles thereon, a shelf bracket detachably mounted and fixed in the storage space, and an extending rail for supporting the frame to be able to be extended forwardly of the first storage from the shelf bracket.
MODULAR STORAGE
An adjustable refrigeration rack system may include a pair of parallel shafts arranged on a rear interior cabinet side of a refrigerator, a plurality of pairs of attachment mechanisms, each attachment mechanisms having one attachment mechanism arranged on one rail, and another arranged at equal height on the other rail, the attachment mechanisms configured to hold a shelf and selectively engage the respective shafts, and a drive mechanism configured to drive the shafts vertically, wherein movement of the shafts causes movement of the shelf arranged on the attachment mechanisms selectively engaged with the shafts, but not movement of a shelf arranged on the attachment mechanisms unattached to the shafts.
SUPERCOOLING FREEZER BOX
A supercooling refrigerator (1000) including: a refrigerator body (100); a door (200) for opening and closing one side of the refrigerator body (100); an accommodating portion (400) provided inside the refrigerator body (100) and seated with an object (M) to be stored; a cooling duct (600) including a fan for taking in air in the refrigerator body (100) and discharging the air, and an evaporator (630) for cooling the air discharged from the fan; and a cool air supply duct (700) formed with a cool air discharge port (710) through which the air cooled through the cooling duct (600) is discharged into the refrigerator body (100), the fan being a cross flow fan (620) including a plurality of discs (622), and a plurality of blades (623) disposed between the discs (622) along outer circumferential surfaces of the discs (622).
TRIM ASSEMBLY FOR AN APPLIANCE SHELF
An appliance includes a cabinet that has an inner surface. A frame is coupled to the inner surface of the cabinet. The frame includes a frame boss that extends from a bottom surface thereof. A panel is positioned within the frame. The frame extends along a perimeter of the panel. An inner trim member has a flange that extends therefrom. The flange defines an aperture configured to align with the frame boss. A fastener is configured to extend through the aperture and engage the frame boss to couple the inner trim member with the frame. An outer trim member is disposed over the inner trim member. The inner trim member is configured to slidably receive the outer trim member.

REFRIGERATED DISPLAY CASE WITH SHELF INDEXING SYSTEM
A refrigerated display case is provided. The refrigerated display case includes a rear wall has a first end, a second end disposed opposite the first end and a plurality of markings disposed between the first end and the second end. A mounting rail is coupled to the rear wall. A shelf is adjustably coupleable to the mounting rail at a plurality of positions between the first end and the second end of the rear wall. The plurality of markings are configured to indicate a distance from the first end of the rear wall to the shelf based on alignment of the shelf with at least one of the plurality of markings.
Fan attachment to disposable containers and means for attachment
Disclosed are a method and/or a system of a fan attachment to disposable containers and a means for attachment of the fan to disposable containers. An adaptable spray fan includes a disposable container section formed of a polyethylene material to hold a potable liquid and a reusable fan apparatus coupled to the disposable container section. The reusable fan apparatus is coupled to the disposable container section through an adjustable coupling mechanism of the reusable fan apparatus and/or a separate attachment coupleable with the reusable fan apparatus. The adjustable coupling mechanism and/or separate attachment secure reusable fan apparatus to the disposable container section at an opening of the disposable container section.
