Storage structure for refrigerator appliance
An adjustable shelf for a refrigerator includes a first and a second shelf portion being slidably moveable between extended and retracted positions. A frame includes a main track that guides the second shelf portion. An auxiliary external track is disposed on an extended lower edge of the frame, following the main track. A hook member is attached to and protrudes downwards from the second shelf portion, the hook member engaging with and sliding along the auxiliary external track to minimize lateral movement of a front end of the second shelf portion as the second shelf portion is slidably moved. In another embodiment, a freezer drawer assembly comprises first and second storage baskets. The second storage basket comprises front roller members that are seated on the first storage unit and are guided along a primary track by parallel, opposing track sidewalls.

REFRIGERATOR
In a refrigerator including a sliding door configured to open and close a storage chamber, a storage basket provided on a rear portion of the sliding door, and a support frame configured to support the sliding door and the storage basket, sidewalls of the storage basket may be formed so as to protrude outwardly except a lower portion in which the support frame is disposed between an inner case and the sidewalls, thereby increasing a storage space of the storage basket. In addition, a front protrusion, an auxiliary protrusion, and a rear protrusion are formed in an upper portion of the storage basket, and therefore a relative position of an auxiliary basket to the storage basket may be limited, and the auxiliary basket may be drawn into and out in conjunction with drawn-in and-out movements of the storage basket.
Furniture Assembly, Implement Interlock System and Cable Guide
A furniture assembly is disclosed that includes an article of furniture, two or more implements and an implement interlock system. The article of furniture includes at least one panel defining an implement-receiving cavity. The two or more implements are slidably-disposed within the implement-receiving cavity of the article of furniture. The implement interlock system includes: two or more cable guides attached to the at least one panel; a cable engagement device attached to each implement of the two or more implements; and a cable tensioning device, including a cable, attached to the at least one panel. A portion of a length of the cable extends through the two or more cable guides and is selectively-hooked by the cable engagement device attached to each implement of the two or more implements. An implement interlock system and a cable guide also are disclosed.

DRAWER SYSTEM HAVING PRIMARY AND CONCEALED DRAWERS
A drawer system includes a primary drawer and a concealed drawer. The concealed drawer is concealed in a space under the floor of the primary drawer, between the lower portions of the sidewall of primary drawer. The primary drawer moves with the concealed drawer in a locked state to maintain the concealed drawer in the concealed state, and the concealed drawer moves independently from the primary drawer in the unlocked state to allow the concealed drawer to extend from the primary drawer, thereby allowing access to the concealed drawer.
Slide rail assembly
A slide rail assembly includes a first rail, a second rail, a releasing member and a limiting member. The second rail is movable relative to the first rail. The releasing member is mounted on the second rail. The limiting member is arranged to be corresponding to the releasing member. The limiting member is configured to be in a free status and a limiting status. When the limiting member is in the free status, the releasing member is configured to be operatively moved from a first position to a second position. When the limiting member is in the limiting status, the releasing member is not able to be operatively moved from the first position to the second position.

Sliding assembly
A sliding assembly includes two pull-out guides which can be secured to opposite side walls and each of which includes a stationary guide rail, a middle rail movably mounted on the guide rail, and a running rail movably mounted on the middle rail. A first slidable element is retained on the two running rails of the two pull-out guides, and a second slidable element is retained on the two middle rails of the two pull-out guides. By moving one slidable element, the other slidable element can also be moved.
