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.

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 food product display and storage system configured for use in a deli-style refrigerated display case is provided. The system includes a shelf unit configured to retain food products, having at least one shelf and an outwardly extending frame. The outwardly extending frame receives an edge of the rear surface of a display riser such that the shelf unit is received partially within an interior recess of the display riser.

The present application provides a refrigerated merchandising case. The refrigerated merchandising case may include a refrigerated product area, a rear panel with a roller channel and a number of support apertures, and a number of shelves with a roller and a number of attachment prongs. The shelves may maneuver along the rear panel via the roller within roller channel and attach via the attachment prongs and the support apertures.

A beverage dispenser for dispensing one or more products is disclosed. The beverage dispenser may include a housing having a dispensing port, a shaft disposed within the housing, and a tray rotatably attached to the shaft. The tray may be tilted towards the dispensing port relative to the shaft. The tray may rotate the one or more products disposed thereon to the dispensing port via gravity after one of the one or more products disposed on the tray is dispensed.

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.

An electronic device including a main body; a door attached to the main body; an observation window provided in at least a partial area of the door, the observation window including a display panel; at least one internal light source located within the observation window; at least one external light source located at an area outside of the observation window; and a controller configured to operate a first state to turn on the at least one internal light source such that an image displayed on the display panel is viewable from an outside of the electronic device, and operate a second state to turn on the at least one external light source such that an inside of the electronic device is viewable from the outside of the electronic device.

A compact refrigeration unit structured and arranged to be used for the preservation of cosmetics using a cylindrical-shaped temperature-controlled portable device designed to be suitably used on a flat surface such as a tabletop. The present invention provides a cosmetic refrigerator suitable for both accessibility and also provides a temperature-controlled environment that preserves cosmetics with optimal temperature.

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 product displaying holder system is configured to be removably coupled to a surface of a component. The product displaying holder system includes a retaining bracket having a longitudinal main beam and one or more securing mounts. Holder channels are formed through the longitudinal main beam. One or more product holders are removably coupled to the retaining bracket. Each product holder includes a bracket-mating stud that is retained within one of holder channels. The holder channels allow the product holder(s) to be selectively positioned at different locations along the main beam. One or more securing assemblies are coupled to the securing mount(s). The securing assemblies are configured to securely couple the product displaying holder system to the surface of the component. In at least one embodiment, the securing mount(s) are perpendicular to the main beam.
