Provided herein are systems, methods, and apparatus related to a storage system. The storage system may include one or more cabinets having shelves including a foldable panel. The storage system may include one or more cabinets having shelves including a fixed portion and a sliding portion configured to slide relative to the fixed portion. A modular storage system may be provided including a plurality of cabinet units that may fixedly attach to each other. A locking mechanism including a locking foot and locking element may be provided for connecting multiple cabinets in a modular cabinet assembly. Some embodiments may include a drawer and secondary work surface assembly for a shelf capable of use in a cabinet.

The cabinet with rotating shelves is configured for use in storing a plurality of domestic articles. The cabinet with rotating shelves rotates such that the accessibility of the each of the plurality of domestic articles is adjustable. The cabinet with rotating shelves comprises a cabinet, a storage pan track, and a control circuit. The cabinet contains the storage pan track and the control circuit. The storage pan track is a shelving structure that contains the plurality of domestic articles. The storage pan track is a rotating structure. The storage pan track rotates the shelving structure to change the presentation of the plurality of domestic articles. The control circuit controls the operation of the storage pan track. The control circuit: a) provides the electric power required to rotate the storage pan track; b) controls the rotation of the storage pan track; and, c) illuminates the storage pan track.

A suction-attached shelving system and method is provided. The system includes a suction-based attachment structure including a releasable suction disc, a suction housing, and a suction lever arm. The suction-based attachment structure may be attached to a vertical surface such as a window by using the suction lever arm to establish a suctional engagement of the releasable suction disc and suction housing with the vertical surface. The suction-based attachment structure is connected to a shelf structure by a shelf rotation axle. The shelf structure includes a front portion that may be folded relative to a back portion for ease of transport.

A storage bin comprising a receptacle for receiving items to be stored, a cover fixedly attached to a structure substantially above a floor, the cover abutting the structure on at least one side of the cover, the cover shaped to slidably receive the receptacle so that receptacle is partly enclosed by the cover and forming a cavity between the cover and the receptacle, and a connection and articulating mechanism for connecting the receptacle to the cover and guiding the receptacle downward from the cover an open position and guiding the receptacle upward to the cover a closed position. The storage bin has the capability of being operated manually or electronically via a remote control. Alternatively, the storage bin may also comprise a receptacle frame and a mounting support rather than a receptacle and a cover, respectively.

An actuated holster for a tactical shelf moves from a stowed position to a deployed position automatically when the tactical shelf is opened. The deployed position allows a user to draw a handgun from the tactical shelf safely with one hand. The actuated holster may be moved back to the stowed position to close the tactical shelf. In some embodiments of the actuated holster a biasing mechanism rapidly moves the holster from the stowed position to the deployed position simultaneously with the opening of the tactical shelf gun compartment. In some embodiments the biasing mechanism comprises one or more springs that urge the holster from the stowed position to the deployed position. A stop member is provided to resist the biasing mechanism when the holster reaches a desired deployed position.

A locker includes a pair of spaced-apart upstanding sidewalls and at least one shelf extending between the sidewalls, the shelf and sidewalls defining a compartment. A tray is carried on the shelf in the compartment and supported by a pair of rollers and coupled to a pair of rails mounted on the sidewalls above the shelf, wherein the tray slides forward and backward relative to the shelf and rotates about the rollers.

Moveable goods supporting arrangement for a storage unit and a method of using such arrangement. A guide mechanism comprises a first part and a second, extendable part and first connecting means for rotational connection of the linear guide mechanism to the storage unit. Second connecting means rotationally connect first ends of first and second divider parts, third connecting means rotationally connect a second end of the first divider part to the second, extendable part of the of the guide mechanism, and fourth connecting means rotationally connect a second end of the second divider part to the first part of the guide mechanism. Movement extending the guide mechanism moves the second ends of the first and second divider parts away from each other to enable access to a second storage area. Rotation of the guide mechanism relative to the storage unit enables access to a third storage area.

A sliding-pivoting mechanism of a shelf of a piece of furniture or household appliance includes two pivot arms pivotally secured to a body and forming a parallel guide for a pull-out guide having at least one guide rail and a running rail. A locking mechanism is arranged on the guide rail and on one of the pivot arms for preventing a simultaneous pivoting and sliding movement. The locking mechanism has a locking pin moveably arranged on one of the pivot arms, and a locking plate mounted stationarily relative to the guide rail and with which the locking pin cooperates in such a way that a pivoting of the pivot arm is blocked when the shelf is raised into an upper loading and unloading position. An unlocking device is coupled to the locking mechanism and includes an actuation element and an unlocking element, with which the locking pin can be moved out of a blocking position into a release position.

A sliding-pivoting mechanism for a rack includes two pivot arms pivotably secured to the carcass, arranged parallel to one another, and forming a parallel guide for a pull-out guide having a guide rail and a running rail to which the rack is fastened. A locking mechanism is arranged on the guide rail and on one of the pivot arms to prevent a simultaneous pivoting and sliding movement. The locking mechanism has a locking pin arranged movably on one of the pivot arms and a locking plate mounted in a positionally fixed manner with respect to the guide rail and which interacts with the locking pin to block a pivoting movement of the pivot arms if the rack is lifted into an upper loading and unloading position. An unlocking device, coupled to the locking mechanism, has an actuating element and an unlocking element to move the locking pin from a blocking position into a release position.

Disclosed are various embodiments of a free standing paper organizational system comprising: a base; at least one vertical support member having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is coupled to the base; a handle component coupled to the second end of the at least one vertical support member; at least one fixed or removable shelf unit comprising a first shelf member extending from the vertical support member at a predetermined angle.
