FURNITURE HAVING A CONCEALED LOCKABLE COMPARTMENT
Furniture with a concealed compartment is provided. The furniture includes a tabletop and a base. Tracks on sides of the base mate with interior channels of the tabletop to enable the tabletop to be slid to reveal or conceal the compartment. The compartment may include a locking mechanism that prevents access to the compartment. The locking mechanism can be unlocked using a magnet.
CABINET SYSTEM
A cabinet system may include a storage container mountable in a cabinet to be movable between being extended out of the cabinet, and being disposed inside the cabinet. The system may include a pair of slide members, and a power connection point. The slide members may slidably connect the storage container and the cabinet. The power connection point includes a cover and an electric outlet. The cover is moveable between a closed position where the electric outlet is inaccessible by a power plug, and an open position where the electric outlet is accessible by the power plug. Slidable movement of the storage container to move the power connection point from outside to inside the cabinet is denied due the cover, in the open position, extending away from the storage container.

Drawer rail and home appliance including the same
A drawer rail and a home appliance including the same are disclosed. The home appliance includes a drawer rail configured to withdraw an item accommodation unit provided in a storage chamber. The drawer rail includes a first rail mounted to the storage chamber, a second rail coupled to the item accommodation unit, a third rail disposed between the first rail and the second rail, a first retainer disposed between the first rail and the third rail to allow relative sliding movement, a second retainer disposed between the second rail and the third rail to allow relative sliding movement, a first stopper for limiting an allowable relative sliding distance between the first rail and the third rail, and a second stopper for limiting an allowable relative sliding distance between the second rail and the third rail.
HOUSEHOLD APPLIANCE
A household appliance has a main body, a chamber with an opening, and a drawer door closing the chamber. A support mechanism is connected between the drawer door and the main body. A cable extends between the main body and the drawer door and a guidance mechanism guides the cable and moves with the drawer door. The guidance mechanism includes a bendable member that moves along a moving path including a bent portion. A limiting mechanism limits the bendable member to move within the moving path and a preset error range. A structure of a component surrounding the guidance mechanism in the household appliance is improved, so that a moving track of the guidance mechanism can be guided and limited when the guidance mechanism moves as the drawer door moves. This helps the guidance mechanism and the cable move through an expected track.
Managing medications at the bedside
Modular automated dispensing systems for dispensing secured medications in a medical environment are provided. The system includes a compact enclosure configured to be disposed in a medical treatment area without taking up valuable floor space. The system includes lockable drawers having one or more compartments for storing and dispensing medications or medical supplies. The system is unlocked by use of an access control interface internally or externally connected directly to the system, or networked to the system through a medical center network.

Wall shelf system
A wall shelf system having a shelf bracket comprising a rear end for fastening to a wall rail, a front end, and at least one first side wall, and having a guide rail for a shelf element that can be pulled out and comprising a rear end, a front end, and a side wall. Coupling features are provided at the shelf bracket and at the guide rail that correspond to one another and that enable the guide rail to be releasably fastened to the shelf bracket.
Illuminated cabinet
A cabinet and a kit for retrofitting a cabinet are disclosed. The cabinet includes a stationary box, at least one moveable wing attached to the stationary box and configured to open and close relative to the stationary box. The at least one moveable wing includes at least one of a door hinged to the stationary box or a drawer mounted via slide actuators to the stationary box. The cabinet also includes a reed switch attached to the stationary box, a magnet attached to the at least one moveable wing, and at least one light emitting diode (LED) fixture installed within the stationary box. Opening the at least one wing separates the reed switch from the magnet and permits current to flow to the at least one LED fixture to illuminate at least an interior portion of the stationary box.
Slide rail assembly and rail kit thereof
A slide rail assembly includes a first rail, a second rail, a first locking mechanism, and a second locking mechanism. The second rail can be displaced with respect to the first rail. The first locking mechanism and the second locking mechanism are disposed at two different portions of the second rail respectively and can be locked to the first rail separately in order to keep the second rail at either of two predetermined extended positions. The first locking mechanism and the second locking mechanism can then be operated and thereby unlocked from the first rail so that the second rail can be retracted with respect to the first rail.
