A shoe organizer unit, a method of using a shoe organizer unit, and a method for storing shoes in a plurality of shoe storing shelves of a shoe organizer unit are described. The shoe organizer unit includes a plurality of shoe storing shelves adapted to store shoes therein. A plurality of linear actuators moves the plurality of shoe storing shelves in a path within a cabinet. A controller manages operation of the linear actuators to move the shoes along the path. Transparent panels secure the shoes within the cabinet. Secure storage and retrieval of the shoes is controlled by electronics including a keypad, a push button and a shoe shelf identification code card printer. The shoe organizer unit provides for sterilization of the shoes stored and secure storing and retrieval of the shoes.

An exemplary storage system generally includes a least one back channel mountable along a support surface (e.g., a back wall of a closet, etc.). At least one wall or panel of the storage system is mountable (e.g., via a connector, etc.) along the back channel. The storage system may also generally include one or more of a hang rod, side bracket, shelf trim, end cup, support bracket, and/or shelf. The shelf may be supportable by the back channel, a pair of side brackets, and at least one support bracket. The side brackets may be mountable along sidewalls of the closet and/or to the at least one wall or the storage system that is mountable along the back channel. The hang rod may supportable beneath the shelf when first and second end portions of the hang rod are supported by respective first and second end cups.

A warming rack for holding footwear includes a base and an array of support posts supported by the base. The base defines a length extending between a first end and a second end and a width between a pair of opposing side edges. The array of support posts is configured to retain multiple articles of footwear above the base. Each support posts includes a first portion extending from a proximal end in a first direction substantially perpendicular to the base to a bend line, and a second portion extending at an angle relative to the first direction from the bend line to a terminal end. The second portion is configured to retain a corresponding article of footwear in a fixed position when the second portion is received by an interior void of the footwear.

A queuing structure leading to an event of short-term duration is formed, at least in part, by a bank of dual access lockers with one face accessible to guests on an ingress path within the queuing structure. The second and opposite face of the dual access lockers is accessible to guests on an egress path leading from an exit from the short-term event. The bank of lockers defines a wall that separates the ingress and egress paths serviced by the dual access lockers. An electronic controller identifies each guest and opens an ingress side door of an assigned locker at the ingress side of the locker bank, and again identifies the guest and opens an egress side door of the assigned locker at the egress side of the locker bank.

The present invention is a shelving system for consumer goods that maximizes available storage space by being adjustable both horizontally and vertically. This system allows stacking of multiple units, and permits internal storage of adjustable shelf members, eliminating the need to separately store removed members. Nesting hollow rods or their equivalent are used to adjust the shelves horizontally. A malleable ring is used to prevent the shelves from sagging in the center once the rods are extended, and to lock the shelves into a new horizontal orientation. Spring clips in the standing poles of this rack allow a consumer to raise or lower shelves, an inch at a time, to accommodate consumer goods, such as shoes, with taller or shorter vertical dimensions than can be accommodated with existing racks.

The present application provides a shoe box, comprising a box body, the box body comprises a hollow storage cavity, the storage cavity comprises a front opening; a box door, which is configured to close the box body, and the box door has an open state and a closed state; the box body comprises a first driving component for driving the box door to open or close, and the first driving component reciprocates along a depth direction of the storage cavity; the box door is accommodated in the storage cavity, when the box door is in the open state; the box door is stopped by the front opening, when the box door is in the closed state. In the present application, the box door is driven by a first driving component reciprocated along the depth direction of the storage cavity on the box body.
