Spill containing refrigerator shelf assembly

The specification discloses a method for containing spills on shelving and the like, and the resulting support members made in accordance with the method, by providing the generally flat top surface of a support with a hydrophobic surface which is arranged in a spill containment pattern and which is generally in the plane of the top surface of the support. The majority of the top surface of the support consists of one or more spill containment areas which are of a non-hydrophobic nature and which are bounded by the hydrophobic surfaces, such that spills on the shelving collect in the non-hydrophobic spill containment area or areas and are prevented from spreading by the hydrophobic surfaces.

20220087419 · 2022-03-24 ·

A moldable sink insert assembly includes a gasket that is comprised of a moldable material to conform to a sink opening in a stone countertop. Additionally, the gasket is comprised of a thermoformable material to precisely conform to the sink opening. The gasket is comprised of a deformable material to inhibit a sink positioned in the sink opening from damaging the stone countertop. A heat source is included for emitting heated air outwardly therefrom. The heat source is in thermal communication with the gasket when the heat source is positioned within a minimum distance from the gasket. In this way the gasket can be thermoformed to facilitate the gasket to be shaped to conform to the sink opening.

The side brackets may be mountable along sidewalls of the closet and/or to the at least one wall or the storage system that is mountable along the back channel. The hang rod may supportable beneath the shelf when first and second end portions of the hang rod are supported by respective first and second end cups.

Furniture article with interchangeable panel set
11071383 · 2021-07-27 · ·

Furniture, such as a bed, dresser, cabinetry has a display system affixing a stack of interchangeable decorative panels to the furniture. The display system has an overlaying panelar frame that captures the stack of panels and has at least one elongated fastener securing the overlaying panelar frame on to a surface of the furniture item. The stack of interchangeable panels are each visually different such as having different colors and/or patterns and can be sandwiched between the overlaying panelar frame and the mounting surface in a pocket to immovably maintain the interchangeable panels against the furniture component. The stack of interchangeable panels can be rearranged such that a different panel is placed on top of the stack or the outermost position and thereby be visible through the opening in the overlaying panelar frame.
