Kitchen workspace with a moving oven
A kitchen workspace and a method of organizing a kitchen workspace is set forth. The kitchen workspace is consolidated into a small footprint area with automated vertical storage shelves for storing and housing kitchen items and kitchen appliances. The automated storage shelves may be provided with electrical power for powering kitchen appliances found on the shelves. Kitchen appliances may be rotated around the automated storage shelves while the appliances are being used. One or more food cooking devices above a sink are able to be moved while being fixed to a kitchen wall.
APPLIANCE BIN
A refrigerated appliance is provided herein. The refrigerated appliance includes a cabinet defining a compartment. A first door is coupled to the cabinet. The first door defines a storage chamber therein. A second door is disposed on an opposing side of the first door from the cabinet. A bin is disposed within the chamber. A bracket is disposed between the first door and the bin. The bracket includes a rotatable member to rotate the bin between first and second positions.
ROTATIONAL SHELF GARDEN SYSTEM AND DEVICE
An rotational shelf garden system and device, including methods of use, are provided. The garden system and device include multiple hanging shelves mounted on a rotatable frame. Rotating the frame positions a shelf at a desired height for the user, wherein the user of the device may perform gardening activities while sitting or standing. Multiple vertically stacked shelves on a rotating frame, each shelf supporting garden plants, greatly reduces the footprint of the garden system versus a conventional outdoor garden, increasing the capacity for generating higher yields while using less ground space. The system and device includes a watering system integrated with each shelf.
Production Line Comprising One or More Assembling Stations and At Least One Module for Carrying Containers
A production line comprises one or more assembling stations and at least one module for carrying containers for supplying to the assembling stations parts which are necessary during the execution of a working cycle. In one example, the module includes a paternoster conveying system including a plurality of drawings for containing the parts. The module includes two endless lateral chains and two lateral guide rails engaged with each drawer. The paternoster system and guide rails selectively position the drawers to downwardly angularly rotate toward the workstation when facing the workstation to increase ergonomic access to the parts for the assembling station operator.
Rotating organizer
In some examples, a rotational organizer includes first and second support frames, first and second side supports configured to couple to the first and second support frames via a tab and slot arrangement to span the first and second support frames, first and second end caps, and an axle configured to pass through a center point of the first and second end caps to pivotally couple at a first end to the first support frame and at a second end to the second support frame, wherein the axle couples to the first and second end caps via a snap-fit, and wherein the axle comprises a lattice reinforcement structure.
Storage device
A storage device includes, in a box having an open front, a rotation mechanism section that rotatably holds a storage body that stores an object and is rotatable about a shaft extending along an up-down direction. The rotation mechanism section includes: a stationary rail affixed to a top surface of the box and including a guide groove open downward and forward and extending in a front-back direction and a guide body on a holding section protruding downward from a groove bottom surface of the guide groove; and a movable rail movable in the front-back direction along the guide groove in the stationary rail, coupled to the storage body via the shaft, and including: left and right sidewalls, a bottom wall, and a front end wall that define a receiving groove for receiving the guide body; and a top wall that forms a slit opening for receiving the holding section.
Powered carousel shelf system for cabinets
A revolving shelf system including a drive track extending along at least one inner surface of a side wall of a cabinet. A shelf member has at least one end connected to the drive track, and a drive member is received within and along the drive track. The drive member is in engagement with the shelf member and is configured to drive the shelf member along the drive track. A stabilizing connection is formed between the shelf member and at least one inner surface of the cabinet. The stabilizing connection is configured to maintain the shelf member in a fixed orientation relative to the inner surface of the cabinet throughout movement of the shelf member along the drive track.
STORAGE DEVICE
A storage device includes, in a box having an open front, a rotation mechanism section that rotatably holds a storage body that stores an object and is rotatable about a shaft extending along an up-down direction. The rotation mechanism section includes: a stationary rail affixed to a top surface of the box and including a guide groove open downward and forward and extending in a front-back direction and a guide body on a holding section protruding downward from a groove bottom surface of the guide groove; and a movable rail movable in the front-back direction along the guide groove in the stationary rail, coupled to the storage body via the shaft, and including: left and right sidewalls, a bottom wall, and a front end wall that define a receiving groove for receiving the guide body; and a top wall that forms a slit opening for receiving the holding section.
Secure receptacle with container carousel
A secure receptacle includes within it a vertically-aligned carousel having a plurality of securable containers horizontally disposed around the carousel. Each container includes a securable lid preventing access to the contents of the container, and the vertically-aligned carousel is configured to lock in a secured position. A sensor within the secure receptacle determines a position of the carousel, and a motorized controller rotates the carousel to a requested position. On determining a requested container, the carousel is rotated so that the requested container is moved from a current position to the opening of the secure receptacle, and the securable lid of the requested container is actuated to provide access to its contents.
