A cabinet having a front part, which closes access to the inner region of the cabinet and is mounted movably relative to the cabinet carcass, and supporting inner or side walls or a side cheek arranged vertically in relation to the floor on which the item of furniture is standing. An access opening is formed between the front part and the side cheek, between the front part and at least one further front part, or between the front part and an upper side, which is formed as a table top. A profile is arranged to the rear of the access opening such that it is impossible to see into the inner region of the cabinet through the access opening, the profile having a first part and a second part, each having a face visible through the access opening, the visible faces arranged such that a shadow gap is formed therebetween.

A method for countertop installation includes affixing a mechanical interface to at least one of a cabinet framework and a wall, and securing a countertop directly to the mechanical interface without directly attaching the countertop to the cabinet framework or the wall.

Apparatus and methods to automatically inspect precision tabletops used for vibration isolation are described. An inspection head having an imaging device and/or perturbing device can be positioned automatically at a plurality of locations over a precision tabletop. The inspection head can further include a distance sensor that can be used to determine a flatness of a portion or all of a surface of the precision tabletop. The inspection head may further include marking apparatus to automatically mark non-compliant features formed on the precision tabletop.

A laminated countertop assembly can include a first generally longitudinal slab with a first substrate, where the first substrate has lamination on a countertop side of the first substrate and lamination on an edge side of the first substrate that extends along a first portion of a length of the edge side of the first substrate. The first substrate can also include a first miter cut angled into the first substrate and slots extending into the first substrate for receiving biscuits. The laminated countertop assembly can also include a second generally longitudinal slab with a second substrate, where the second substrate has lamination on a countertop side of the second substrate and lamination on an edge side of the second substrate. The second substrate can also include a second miter cut at a corner of the second substrate and slots extending into the second substrate for receiving the biscuits.

A cabinet system includes a first vertical end support and a second vertical end support. The first vertical end support and the second vertical end support are each formed from a plurality of metal tubes. The cabinet system also includes a plurality of horizontal stringers that extend between the first vertical end support and the second vertical end support. One or more of the horizontal stringers is configured to support a countertop. The cabinet system further includes a plurality of lateral stringers that extend between the first vertical end support and the second vertical end support. At least one of the lateral stringers is a toe kick.

A medical cart having a chassis with a plurality of wheels attached thereto; a plurality of drawers supported on the chassis; a temperature-regulated compartment in the chassis; a locking bar pivotally attached to the chassis; a headwall mount attached to the chassis; a display mounted on the chassis; and a positionable task light attached to the chassis. Each drawer includes a drawer lock shiftable between a locked position and an unlocked position. The locking bar is shiftable between a locked position and an unlocked position so that the locking bar serves as a secondary safety lock for all the drawers and the door of the temperature-regulated compartment.
