Refrigerator cabinet
A foot is connected to the bottom wall of a refrigeration cabinet. The foot is selectively movable relative to the bottom wall to adjust a vertical position of the foot with respect to the bottom wall. The bottom wall provides access to the foot from within the interior of the cabinet to allow a user to selectively move the foot to adjust the vertical position of the foot with respect to the bottom wall. The foot includes a stop configured to engage the bottom wall and thereby limit downward adjustment of the foot with respect to the bottom wall. A floor glide is connected to the bottom wall and initially protrudes downward from the bottom wall beyond the foot. The floor glide enables the cabinet to slide along a support surface to a deployment position so then the foot can be lowered to support the cabinet at the deployment position on the foot.
FURNITURE LEG SOCK
A furniture leg protective sock to prevent a furniture leg from scraping or marring a floor includes a stretchable/expandable double-layered non-friction material to form an outer layer, an inner layer, and a gap therebetween, the outer layer having a first outer layer surface and a second outer layer surface, the inner layer having a first inner layer surface and a second inner layer surface, the first outer layer surface and the first inner layer surface being continuous, the second outer layer surface and the second inner layer surface being continuous; and a caster cup. The caster cup is attached to the stretchable/expandable double-layered non-friction material. The caster cup is filled with a deformable friction material.

Device and method for moving bedridden patients
A system for repositioning patients including a plate assembly and a strap assembly. The system includes at least two plates including a first portion and a second portion mounted to the first portion and configured to receive a strap assembly therein. A user utilizes the system for repositioning patients every 2-3 hours per healthcare industry standards of care to prevent the patient from contracting bed sores.
PROTECTIVE SLEEVE FOR FURNITURE FOOT
A protective sleeve for a furniture foot, including a sleeve body made of a flexible material and a felt pad, wherein the sleeve body is of a cylindrical structure with an opening in one end, which includes a bottom wall and a lateral wall integrally formed with the bottom wall; the felt pad is attached to an outer surface of the bottom wall and is in a hot-melt, connection with the bottom wall; a friction coefficient of the felt pad is smaller than that of the sleeve body. The felt pad is disposed on a bottom surface of the sleeve body. As the friction coefficient of the felt pad is smaller than the friction coefficient of the sleeve body, a friction force on the felt pad is smaller when a chair foot is moved against a floor, so that the protective sleeve is prevented from falling off.
Grounding Floor Glide for Shelving, Chairs, and Equipment to Reduce Risk from ESD (Electro-Static Discharge) and Protect Floors from Damage
This conductive ESD protective foot is a grounding device consisting of a resilient conductive floor glide (foot) that provides an electrical path from a shelving unit, chair, or other equipment, to a conductive floor. The foot can be installed onto a leg leveling bolt or, alternatively, inserted into the shelf post itself. This foot provides an electrical connection for ESD purposes while it allows a device using this foot to be moved without causing damage to the floor. This device provides a conductive path to the floor, allows a shelving unit to slide more easily across a floor without damage and separates metal leg levelers (bolts) from the floor, which reduces risk from rust stains caused my metal legs rusting to the floor from use of water or cleaning methods
This Foot protective foot can be installed and removed without the use of tools and is held securely in place when attached. It allows for some variation in bolt-head size as well as post inside diameter, which increases its flexibility, as the Heavy-Hex bolts used as leg levelers have bolt-heads that often vary depending upon the manufacturer. If an electrically conductive version is not required, non-conductive material can be substituted to reduce cost.

Chair leg mountable coaster assembly
A chair leg mountable coaster assembly includes a plate that is mountable to one of a plurality of legs of a chair. The plate extends laterally from the leg in a single direction that is orientated parallel to a plane that extends through bottom ends of the plurality of legs. The plate is one of a plurality of the plates, each of which is configured to be mountable to a respective one of the plurality of the legs so that each leg is engaged with one of the plates. The plates reduce penetration of the legs into a soft substrate, such as sand, dirt, and soil. The plates are sized to allow multiple ones of the chairs to be stacked without interference by the plates.

Lifting table with height adjustment device
A lifting table includes a top plate height adjustment device that performs a height adjustment of all support columns in a synchronized manner. The top plate is supported on the floor by of a leg structure provided with multiple support columns arranged in parallel. Top plate receiving structures attach a column to the top plate and change the length of the support columns. Push valves exposed on the inside of the top plate receiving structures are actuated, changing the length of gas springs provided inside of the support columns. By extending an operation rod unit into the top plate receiving structures from a single handle of an operation lever via a connection fitting, the push valves are operated the same amount and at the same time in all of the columns with a single operation, so that it is possible to smoothly raise and lower the top plate.
