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.

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.

A refrigerated food service counter includes a case having sidewalls that define an interior space. A refrigeration unit is in thermal communication with the sidewalls of the case. A bracket is disposed within the interior space, and a food service pan is supported by the bracket. A cooling bar is movably attached to the bracket. The cooling bar is positioned proximate the food service pan and in thermal communication with a select sidewall of the case. The refrigeration unit draws heat from the sidewalls. The select sidewall in turn draws heat from the cooling bar, and the cooling bar in turn draws heat from the food service pan.

A display shelf system includes mounting support members that hook onto a rail that attaches to a display cabinet.

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.

A riser plate for a shelf of a refrigerated display case and kits of parts allows an angle between an outer guiding surface of a riser plate and an inner retaining surface to be adjusted.

The present application provides a merchandiser for dispensing a number of products. The merchandiser may include an ambient compartment with a number of ambient product columns with a number of ambient products therein, an X-Y drive device positioned beneath the ambient compartment, and a temperature controlled compartment positioned beneath the X-Y drive device, the temperature controlled compartment including a number of temperature controlled product columns with a number of temperature controlled products therein. The X-Y drive device receives an ambient product from one of the ambient product columns of the ambient compartment and delivers the ambient product to one of the temperature controlled product columns of the temperature controlled compartment.

A refrigerator appliance having one or more sliding shelves. The sliding shelf may slide along one or more tracks. The sliding shelf may include one or more shelf plates. The one or more tracks may be adjustable.

A refrigerated display case includes a housing surrounding multiple shelves. An air return passage is defined below the shelves. A fan is disposed at a downstream end of the air return passage. An air distribution gap is connected to an outlet of the fan and disposed behind the shelves and a top passage is disposed above the shelves. At least one microchannel heat exchanger connects the air distribution gap to the shelves.

A system 1001 comprises a display unit 1002 and shelves 4. The display unit has an open front chamber 50 for storing food products, lower and upper air ducts 32, 34, a fan 36, and an air refrigerator 44. At least one wall is transparent. The display unit further comprises a conduit wall 88, parallel to the transparent wall for creating an air conduit 90. The air conduit comprises a first conduit inlet 92, a second conduit inlet 94, and a conduit outlet 96. The first conduit inlet is in fluid connection with one of the lower and upper air ducts for diverting a portion of the air moving through the relevant air duct into the air conduit. The second conduit inlet is in fluid connection with ambient air outside of the display unit.
