Wine carousel
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.
Adjustable vertical can storage and dispenser rack
A storage and dispensing system for generally cylindrical items which is adjustable to accommodate items having a variety of heights and diameters. The width of the storage and discharge areas, depth of the storage area, and height of the discharge chute are adjustable. The system holds items for removal on a first-in, first-out basis.
Modular container holder with collapsible basket
A modular container holder comprising a backing panel and a collapsible basket portion, the backing panel has a magnetic mounting means adapted to detachably secure the modular container holder to a vertical mounting surface, the basket portion projects forwardly from the backing panel and is adapted to receive and retain a container. The basket portion has a plurality of movable basket elements which allow the basket portion to be alternatively placed in an assembled state to receive the container, and a collapsed state which reduces the amount of space occupied by the modular container holder. A contiguous modular arrangement of multiple modular containers positioned in column or row configurations allows multiple containers to be stored, while the basket portion is tilted forwardly to prevent the obstruction of basket openings when the modular container holders are vertically stacked in the column configuration.
BOTTLE SUPPORT ASSEMBLY FOR A REFRIGERATOR APPLIANCE
A bottle support assembly positioned within a chilled chamber of a refrigerator appliance includes a support panel, a first support, and a second support. Each of the first support and the second support are pivotally mounted to the support panel and are movable between a collapsed position and a raised position. In addition, the first support and the second support each define concave support surfaces which may be positioned at different heights and may have different radiuses of curvature for supporting bottles having any size and at any angle.
BEVERAGE HOLDER
A beverage holder includes a platform with a slot disposed therethrough. First and second L-shaped rails extend downwardly from an underside of the platform on either side of the slot. The first and second rails are configured to retain cans, at upper portions of the cans, in a sliding manner therebetween. The slot is centrally positioned between the first and second L-shaped rails and configured to suspend bottle top portions therefrom.
UNDER CABINET/SHELF STORAGE RACK IMPROVEMENTS
Rack systems, devices, and methods for attaching and providing foldable storage racks underneath refrigerator shelves or cabinets or other shelves for suspending, storing and separating wine bottles and beverage cans and plates. The storage racks can include a plurality of bail cradles each having ends pivotally attached to brackets. The bail cradles can have concave support surfaces for supporting and separating bottles and cans. The bail cradles can have ribbed upper surfaces for allowing a shelf/tray to slide thereon. The racks can have pivotal vertical legs with a slide out drawer on lower ends of the legs. The racks can be used for storing other items such as computer keyboards and the like, used with desks, tables, and the like. The foldable storage racks can have horizontally adjustable and vertical adjustable clamp ends for allowing the assemblies to be mounted to the front and rear ends of different length, different width and different thickness refrigerator shelves.
Securing assemblies for systems and methods for securing and displaying products
A product holder system is configured to be removably secured to a surface of a component. The system may include a bracket including a main beam and at least one securing mount, and at least one product holder removably and adjustably secured to the main beam. The product holder is configured to removably retain a product. At least one securing assembly is connected to the securing mount(s). The securing assembly is configured to removably secure the product holder system to the surface of the component.
Refrigerator and Support Device for Refrigerator
A refrigerator includes a main body having one or more storage spaces; one or more doors configured to open and close at least one of the one or more storage spaces; a plurality of shelves in the one or more storage spaces; one or more wine shelves in the one or more storage spaces, configured to hold and/or store wine or a beverage; a cool air supply device configured to supply cool air and/or maintain at least one of the one or more storage spaces at a predetermined temperature; and a duct including a first cool air discharge port fixed to a rear face of the one or more storage spaces to receive the cool air from the cool air supply device and discharge the cool air. At least one of the one or more wine shelves includes a body having a size (e.g., a width) smaller than a width of at least one of the plurality of shelves, a space configured to hold and/or store the wine or the beverage, a flow path through which the cool air flows, a cool air inlet connected to the first cool air discharge port and configured to introduce the cool air into the flow path, and a second cool air discharge port configured to discharge the cool air from the flow path to the one or more storage spaces.
Refrigerator appliance and corresponding shelving system
A refrigerator shelving system includes a plate, an elongated support member, and a support brace. The plate has a front edge, a rear edge, and side edges extending between the front and rear edges. The elongated support member has a base secured to the rear edge of the plate. The elongated support member has a rail protruding upward from the base. The rail extends between the side edges of the plate. The support brace is disposed on a top of the plate. The support brace slidably engages the rail such that the support brace is slidable between the side edges. The support brace defines a notch configured to engage a bottle disposed on the top of the plate to restrict movement of the bottle.
Product holders for systems and methods for securing and displaying products
A product holder system is configured to be removably secured to a surface of a component. The system may include a bracket including a main beam and at least one securing mount, and at least one product holder removably and adjustably secured to the main beam. The product holder is configured to removably retain a product. At least one securing assembly is connected to the securing mount(s). The securing assembly is configured to removably secure the product holder system to the surface of the component.
