A furniture unit in the form of a multi-function table including a base having front end, a rear end, and a primary cavity. A first storage unit is located within the primary cavity to define a first storage area having a first opening at the front end of the base that is closed by a first closure member. A second storage unit is located within the primary cavity to define a second storage area having a second opening at the front end of the base that is closed by a second closure member. The primary cavity may have a rear portion located between the first and second storage units and the rear end of the base. A compressor may be located within the rear portion of the primary cavity and may be operably coupled to the first storage area to cool the first storage area.

An automated system for the preparation and distribution of food, comprises: at least one supply station of at least one container adapted to contain a plurality of food ingredients; at least one filling station of the at least one container with the food ingredients; at least one pressurization station intended to apply an vacuum to the at least one container; at least one microwave cooking station of the food ingredients inside the at least one container; and a distribution apparatus/system(s)/component(s)/structure(s) (or the like) of the at least one container to an end consumer.

Systems and apparatus for heating or cooling food. A heating and cooling system for operative connection to a well includes a first manifold having a plurality of openings, each allowing a seal to be made against a first surface of a Peltier chip, and defines a flow path for a heat transfer fluid which directly contacts the first surfaces of a plurality of Peltier chips. The fluid circulates through tubing from the manifold to the well and connects to a flow space of a tray disposed therein. A second opposite manifold may be joined to the first manifold to form a block and defines a second flow path allowing direct contact with the second surfaces of the plurality of Peltier chips. The fluid circulates through tubing from the second manifold to a radiator. The manifolds may be joined to form a manifold block. The trays may be interchangeable.
