The invention concerns an ergonomic storage unit having at least one retractable container; and a mechanism configured to displace the at least one retractable container between two positions: a stowed position in which the retractable container is stowed in the storage unit; and an ergonomic position in which the retractable container is positioned in front of the storage unit and at a height which is different from that of the stowed position, in a manner such that the retractable container is more accessible as regards to height compared with the stowed position. The mechanism is configured to support the weight of the retractable container by distributing the weight on either side of the mechanism in the width direction of the retractable container, thereby establishing lateral access to the retractable container in the ergonomic position.

A reclining chair or the like provides a set of base-mounted extendable arms that extend outward as the chair reclines to brace the chair against tipping. A force-limiting coupler allows the reclining mechanism and the extendable arms to be linked while maintaining different force regimes.

In the present invention of a storage case, a space can be saved in the packing form.

The skeleton frame of the storage case includes a pair of left and right side frames, a connecting pipe connecting the front end portions of the side frames, and a back panel connecting the rear end portions of the side frames. Therefore, in the skeleton frame, the bottom wall of the case can be supported by the support portion of the side frame without providing the bottom plate that supports the entire bottom wall of the case. As a result, when the storage case is disassembled, it is not necessary to vertically stack the bottom plates that receive the entire bottom wall of the case from below, so that it is possible to save space in the packing form of the storage case.

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.

A reclining chair or the like provides a set of base-mounted extendable arms that move forward as the chair reclines, and the leg rest extends to brace the chair against forward tipping, for example, if weight is applied to the leg rest without the counterbalance of an occupant. When the leg rest retracts, the arms pull back to reduce tripping hazard.

The present disclosure relates to a safety storage furniture, and an object of the present disclosure is to provide safety storage furniture, in which a locking unit having a locking groove provided on one side surface of a drawer and a guide unit having an inclined guide and a horizontal guide are integrally connected and installed, such that an assembly property of the storage furniture may be improved and extended and locked states of the drawer may be smoothly maintained.

Apparatus and associated methods relate to a storage system having a drawer supported, when extended from a housing, by a lid. In an illustrative example, the drawer may have a first engagement feature. The lid may, for example, have a second engagement feature. The housing may, for example, have a first slide configured to slidingly receive the drawer. The housing may, for example, have a second slide configured to slidingly receive the lid. In a support mode, for example, the lid may be disposed in the second slide beneath the drawer such that, when the drawer is slid out of the housing beyond a first distance, then the engagement features interact to extend the lid from the housing such that the lid supports at least a portion of a weight of the drawer. Various embodiments may advantageously provide a cost-effective, transportable, and/or modular storage system.
