A storage shelf base for an item of furniture or household appliance, includes a base plate stationarily secured to a body of the item of furniture or household appliance, a support plate arranged on the base plate, and a storage shelf, which is positively driven relative to the support plate and can simultaneously be moved rotationally and translationally. Facing bearing surfaces of the support plate and the storage shelf have respective at least substantially closed circulating running grooves, in which rolling elements are guided. The storage shelf is movable relative to the support plate, out of an initial position into an intermediate position, in an opening movement, in which the storage shelf is rotated relative to the support plate in a rotational direction and shifted in a predetermined direction and can be moved out of the intermediate position back into the initial position in a closing movement. The support plate has a closing-support device supporting the closing movement of the storage shelf.

A storage shelf base for an item of furniture or household appliance, includes a support plate arranged on a body of the item of furniture or household appliance, and a storage shelf positively driven relative to the support plate and can simultaneously be moved rotationally and traslationally. Facing bearing surfaces of the support plate and the storage shelf have respective closed circulating running grooves, in which rolling elements are guided. The storage shelf can be moved out of an initial position into an intermediate position, relative to the support plate in an opening movement, in which the storage shelf is rotated relative to the support plate in a rotational direction and shifted in a predetermined direction and can be moved out of the intermediate position back into the initial position in a closing movement. The facing bearing surfaces of the support plate and the storage shelf have respective second running grooves, in which rolling elements are guided. The second running grooves of the support plate and the storage shelf at least partially surround the first running grooves of the support plate and the storage shelf.

An assembly for storage, display, and serving includes accessories attached to a rotating column. The column is supported by a base, which has a turntable bearing. The stationary ring of the bearing rests on a surface, while the rotating ring is attached to the base and allows the assembly to rotate. The accessories can attach directly to the column, or they can slide onto a bracket which attaches to the column. The accessories may comprise platforms for serving, mug holders, coffee cup holders, storage containers, or various other kitchen accessories.

A shelf assembly (1) for products comprising a shelving section (5) with at least one shelf (6), which is rotatable about an axis of rotation (13) between a display position, in which the shelf is accessible from the front (7) of the shelving section, and a refill position, in which the shelf is accessible from the rear (8) of the shelving section. The shelf assembly further comprises a support (9), which has a sledge (10) rotatably supporting the shelving section and being movable in a forward-rearward direction. When the shelving section is rotated from the display position to the refill position, the sledge is first moved forwards, and then rearwards back to its starting position. The shelving section further comprises a frame (16) having opposite first and second side posts (17, 18), wherein the shelf is mounted between the side posts at art arbitrary height. The shelf is provided with a respective clamping portion at opposite ends of the shelf, fixing the shelf at the side posts. Each clamping portion comprises a hook portion engaged with a respective side post at a first surface thereof, and a tightening portion engaged with an opposite second surface of the side post, wherein the tightening portion is untightenable for arbitrary height movement of the shelf.

A storage apparatus that stores objects includes a housing; a fixed part disposed in the housing and fixed in a position against the housing; a rotating part connected to the fixed part through a rotating shaft extending in the vertical direction and rotates relative to the fixed part as a center of the rotating shaft; and a rotating shaft driving part that rotates the rotating shaft; wherein the fixed part includes a power-transmission unit that transmits electric power in noncontact state; and the rotating part includes a rotating shelf on which objects are disposed; a power drive device disposed to rotate integrally with the rotating shelf and driven by electric power; and a power-receiving unit that supplies the electric power transmitted from the power-transmission unit to the power drive device.

A cart for dispensing, storing, and tracking medical instruments is provided. The cart has a housing, a first motor, a second motor, one or more trays, and a processor. The trays hold one or more medical instruments, and have a door and door opening assembly. The processor is in communication with the motors for rotating the housing and opening the doors. The processor has a storage medium for storing the cart's instrument dispensing history. The processor also has a user interface for capturing user input.

A rotatable wine display rack includes a base supporting a pole. Typically a plurality of shelves engages the pole separated by a spacer being a cylinder that has an upper and a lower flange. The upper flange is fixedly attached to the shelf above it and the bottom flange sits on top of the shelf underneath but disposed in between is a bearing. This allows shelves to be rotated independent of each other. Each shelf include a plurality of rods converging to the centre of the pole and so spaced that two roads support a bottle of wine. Attached to the top and adjustable in its position is a flat surface to ast as protection and/or a table for the rack.

A loaded body housing device includes: an upper table which rotates about a rotation axis extending along the Z-axis and supports a plurality of batteries in a plurality of storage spaces around the rotation axis; a lower table which rotates about a rotation axis extending along the Z-axis and supports a plurality of batteries in a plurality of storage spaces around the rotation axis; and a casing having openings each of which exposes one storage space when viewed in the negative direction of the Z-axis. The upper table is positioned to have overlapping between a part of the plurality of storage spaces and the plurality of storage spaces and no overlapping between the plurality of storage spaces and a storage space when viewed in the negative direction of the Z-axis. A direction in which the rotation axes are arranged intersects with a direction in which the storage spaces are arranged.

A vehicle storage assembly includes a bracket, a mounting plate, a post having a distal end and a proximal end, the distal end of the post rotatably coupled to the bracket and the proximal end of the post rotatably coupled to the mounting plate, an upper member defining a frame configured to support a rigging accessory, a lower member, and a locking member. The upper member includes an outer wall and a plurality of supports defining a plurality of stations. The lower member includes an outer panel and a plurality of partitions defining a plurality of cavities configured to receive the rigging accessory. The locking member is positioned to selectively fix the orientation of the post, the upper member, and the lower member thereby facilitating operator access to a desired one of the plurality of stations.

A wine carousel including top and bottom mounting brackets, each having a coupling with a flange, the flange having mounting holes for mounting the brackets and the coupling having a bushing retained therein; a plurality of central tube portions connected together to form a central tube extending from the coupling in the top mounting bracket to the coupling in the bottom mounting bracket, the central tube being rigidly attached to the top and bottom mounting brackets and non-rotatable with respect to the top and bottom mounting brackets; a plurality of circular carousel members having nests projecting from a central axis to position and hold wine bottles shoulder to shoulder, and having a carousel tube for receiving the central tube; and a plurality of glide blocks secured to the central tube portions and have bushings disposed therein, and wherein the circular carousel members sit on the glide blocks and are independently rotatable around the central tube portions.
