Self-checkout system
A self-checkout system including a cabinet supported by a floor, a tilt body coupled to a hinge and located inside the cabinet and a support body being slidably coupled to the tilt body. When the support body is located inside the cabinet, the tilt body is balanced about the hinge and the support body is spaced apart from the floor. When the support body is pulled outside the cabinet, a front of the tilt body is rotated about the hinge and the support body engages with the floor.
Storage bin assembly for a refrigerator
A storage compartment for a refrigerator includes a base portion and first and second sidewalls spaced-apart from one another and upwardly extending from the base portion. A support member interconnects the inner and outer sidewalls. A door is pivotally coupled to the first and second sidewalls between open and closed positions, wherein the door further includes one or more inwardly extending retaining struts having upwardly extending tabs. The upwardly extending tabs abut an undersurface of the interconnecting support member when the door is in the closed position.

SHELF HAVING A BI-DIRECTIONAL SLIDE AND TILT MECHANISM
A shelving system including a cabinet including a product receiving zone. The product receiving zone includes a first end, a second end, a first side and a second side. A shelf member is arranged between the first side and the second side. The shelf member includes a first side portion and a second side portion. One of the first side portion and the second side portion includes a first shelf support and a second shelf support. A bi-directional slide and tilt system is mounted to one of first side and the second side of the product receiving zone. The bi-directional slide and tilt system includes a first portion receptive of the first shelf support and a second portion receptive of the second shelf support. The first portion and the second portion facilitate sliding and tilting of the shelf relative to the product receiving zone.
Rapid access firearm safe
A rapid access firearm safe having a rigid body with a secure interior storage compartment and a door for accessing a firearm. The door is hingedly attached to the lower portion of the body such that the door swings open from an upper portion of the body, and a firearm retaining mechanism is located on the interior side of the door and releasably holds at least one firearm thereto. A locking mechanism is integrated into the upper portion of the safe body and accessible from the exterior, and the locking mechanism selectively holds the door firmly against the body thereby securely enclosing the interior storage compartment and releases the door from the body upon deactivation by receiving user input.
Under-shelf storage bin for a refrigerator appliance
A refrigerator appliance includes a chilled chamber and a shelf positioned within the chilled chamber. The shelf is supported by lateral mounting bracket that define support features for an under-shelf storage bin. The support features include mounting pins and/or guide ribs that are configured to engage complementary rollers or hooking protrusions defined on the lateral sides of the storage bin. The support features permit a user to pull the storage bin away from the shelf along a transverse direction and/or pivot the shelf downward along the vertical direction.

UNDER-BED STORAGE UNIT FREESTANDING
An under-bed storage unit is disclosed in which a freestanding structure is disposed under a bed frame and bears a generally circular platform thereon. The platform has a cut edge configured to be flush with the margin of the bedframe so that when the platform is not in use, it does not extend beyond the bed frame and is therefore out of the way. However, upon rotation, the arc of the circular platform is exposed and the stored contents of the platform are visible and accessible. The platform is rotated until the desired stored item is located and is then returned to its stored position. A number of variations of under-bed storage units utilizing freestanding supports, platforms of various sizes and shapes, structural and aesthetic platform feature, and associated support structures are also disclosed.
