Self-acting devices and methods are provided for facilitating preventing product tip over. The self-acting device includes an anti-tip mechanism associated with a product to facilitate preventing tip over of the product when in an extended state. Further, the device includes an actuator associated with the product. The actuator is operatively coupled to facilitate transition of the anti-tip mechanism from a retracted state to the extended state. Further, an actuator control is provided to signal the actuator to facilitate transitioning the anti-tip mechanism from the retracted state to the extended state based on the actuator control detecting movement of the product across a floor.

A kit comprising a cabinet base (30), an adjustable leg for supporting a cabinet, the leg comprising: a first component (60) having an attachment structure for attachment to a cabinet and a first threaded element (63) integral with and extending from the attachment structure, the attachment structure comprising at least two lugs (65) projecting away from the first threaded element (63); and a second component (40) comprising a second threaded element (70) threadedly engageable at one end of the second component (40) with the first threaded element (63), a foot (72) located at the opposite end of the second component (40), and a driving formation (73) whereby the second component (40) can be engaged by a tool and driven to rotate, the driving formation (73) being located inboard of the thread of the second threaded element (63); the first and second components (40, 60) being configured so that when they are threadedly engaged the driving formation (73) is accessible through the first threaded element (63); the cabinet base defining a hole (38) therethrough and a first set of at least two sockets on its underside for receiving respective ones of the lugs (65), the sockets being positioned relative to the hole (38) such that when the leg is attached to the base (30) with the fixing lugs (65) located in the sockets the driving formation (73) is accessible through the hole (38).

The present invention relates to a refrigerator unit and/or freezer unit having a unit carcass and a unit door that is pivotable about an axis, preferably about a vertical axis, and that closes the cooled inner space at the front side, wherein removable protection against tilting is attached to the unit body and at least extends the tilt point of the unit body to the front and/or to the side beyond the normal footprint of the body.

A transmission rod assembly for a height-adjustable desk comprises: a first transmission head having positioning grooves; a second transmission head having positioning blocks; an elastic piece axially limiting abutment of the first and second transmission heads, the positioning blocks positioning respective positioning grooves; a sleeve pipe having an end mounted to the second transmission head, the elastic piece being mounted in the sleeve pipe, and an end of the elastic piece abutting the second transmission head; a first transmission rod having an end protruding into the other end of the sleeve pipe and abutting the other end of the elastic piece, the sleeve pipe limiting the first transmission rod; and a locking assembly mounted on the other end of the sleeve pipe, the locking assembly limiting the sleeve pipe and clamping the first transmission rod. Thus, mounting can be completed by elastic squeeze, bringing simple structure and easy operation.

A leg assembly for a bar arrangement can include one or more legs, a mounting channel, and a securing knob. The mounting channel can be secured to the bar arrangement via a toolless connection. Primary receiving nuts can be used to secure the channel to the bar arrangement via engagement with the one or more legs and the securing knob. A second leg can be secured to the mounting channel via a secondary receiving nut at a specified location along the mounting channel. The specified location of the second leg can position the second leg away from a back wall or other obstacle to provide an accommodation space under the bar arrangement.

A replaceable furniture base that can be quickly and easily replaced in whole or in part when the furniture base shows signs of excessive wear or damage.

A support platform for a furniture unit includes a plurality of support arms that each terminate in a corner pocket. The corner pocket supports a furniture leg end and contains the leg end within the platform perimeter. The platform defines a foundation support surface that may include cleats or anti-skid cushion pads to enhance friction with the foundation surface.

A washable cabinet and a method of manufacturing said washable cabinet are disclosed. The washable cabinet includes a base and at least two opposing side walls extending from the base. The base is provided with a longitudinal recess for collection of liquid. The longitudinal recess is disposed essentially parallel to an upper surface of the base. The base is further provided with a longitudinal trough disposed below the longitudinal recess. The longitudinal recess is disposed with one or more first apertures for drainage of liquid into the longitudinal trough. The longitudinal trough is provided with one or more second apertures for drainage of liquid to the atmosphere. The cabinet formed form a single continuous sheet of material having fold lines thereon.

Systems and methods for a modular store system are disclosed. In particular embodiments, each modular store system includes one or more pre-fabricated, metal, interconnected, modular, units. Each of the units includes a baseplate, one or more chassis (possibly with one or more utility access holes), and subdeck. Each unit may also include other components, such as casters, level glides, a detachable veneer, pre-installed utilities, kick-plates, etc. As will be understood from discussions herein, pre-fabricated, metal (modular) units may reduce or eliminate the timeframe and associated costs of typical on-site (wooden) casework construction.

A furniture frame is provided that includes a plurality of frame members and a socket coupled to at least one of the plurality of frame members. The socket may include a plurality of walls arranged about a central axis and enclosing the central axis. The frame may further include a leg configured to be removably inserted into the socket. A first portion of the leg that is configured to be inserted into the socket may include walls having approximately a first thickness, and a second portion of the leg that is not configured to be inserted into the socket may include walls having approximately a second thickness that is twice as large as the first thickness. The frame members, socket, and leg may comprise metal.
