SPILL CONTAINING REFRIGERATOR SHELF ASSEMBLY
A shelf assembly includes a shelf panel and a hydrophobic surface applied in a spill containment pattern on the top surface of the shelf panel adjacent to at least one of the left side, right side, front, and rear edges. The shelf panel has a top surface for supporting articles, opposite left and right side edges, and opposite front and rear edges. The spill containment pattern defines at least a portion of a boundary of a central portion of the top surface of the shelf panel. The spill containment pattern includes an outer edge containment strip disposed adjacent to at least one of the left side, right side, front, and rear edges of the shelf panel, an inner edge containment strip spaced inward from the outer edge containment strip, and a non-hydrophobic spill catch area disposed between the outer and inner edge containment strips.
FURNITURE HAVING DETACHABLE DECORATIVE TRIM PIECES
Decorative trim pieces having a variety of different shapes and colors and being configured to be removably attached to an exterior face of an article of furniture (e.g., a bookcase) so that the trim pieces can be detached from the furniture and replaced by different trim pieces by which to change the ornamental appearance of the furniture when necessary. Each trim piece has a set of plugs extending therefrom to be removably received by respective plug holes formed in the exterior face of the furniture, whereby to hold the trim piece in place. The decorative trim pieces and the plugs extending therefrom are preferably manufactured from a resilient cushion material that is adapted to be compressed and absorb impact forces in response to an individual inadvertently bumping into the article of furniture at the trim pieces that are removably attached thereto.
Bumper with integrated price tag holder and graphics holder
A bumper with integrated price tag holder and graphics holder configured to be affixed to a retail display fixture, retained in place by one or more fasteners, suitable for displaying price tags and product informational graphics.
STORAGE SYSTEMS INCLUDING BACK CHANNELS AND WALLS MOUNTABLE ALONG THE BACK CHANNELS
An exemplary storage system generally includes a least one back channel mountable along a support surface (e.g., a back wall of a closet, etc.). At least one wall or panel of the storage system is mountable (e.g., via a connector, etc.) along the back channel. The storage system may also generally include one or more of a hang rod, side bracket, shelf trim, end cup, support bracket, and/or shelf. The shelf may be supportable by the back channel, a pair of side brackets, and at least one support bracket. 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.
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.
Refrigerator
A refrigerator includes a case body, an outer door, and an inner door disposed in front of the outer door. The outer door has a front door panel that forms a facade of the outer door. The front door panel includes a cover portion, and the cover portion projects, along a length or width direction, out of a heat-insulation portion that is of the outer door and that is configured to seal the opening. The outer door further includes a protecting plate, connected to a rear surface of the cover portion and faces the inner door. The refrigerator is provided with a good appearance on the premise that good cooperation between the inner door and the outer door is ensured.
Profile for article of furniture, system of profiles for article of furniture and method for assembling an article of furniture
A profile (10,20) for article of furniture is structurally configured to establish a first association position (30) and a second association position (31) in relation to the article of furniture, thus enabling flexibility in producing and assembling the profile and its corresponding system, and providing the user with an array of easy-to-apply finish options.
Corner member for a supportive frame assembly
A frame corner member includes an elongated hollow extrusion having a central corner portion and two leg portions extending from the central portion. Each leg portion includes an inner side wall spaced from and parallel to an outer side wall, and merging with the central portion. An outer end wall joins the inner and outer side walls, which each include an inner surface facing the inner surface of the other side wall. An opening through the outer end wall defines a space between the inner and outer side walls adjacent one end of the extrusion for receiving one end of one of frame side members and end members. At least one of the inner surfaces in the space has discrete surface features adapted to grip and retain the one end of one of the side members and end members in the space when received through the opening.
Bumper assembly
A bumper assembly includes an elongate rigid shell formed of a metallic material and an elongate base. The elongate rigid shell includes an inner surface, an outer surface, a first shell edge, and a first flange protruding from the first shell edge in a direction toward the inner surface of the elongate rigid shell. The elongate base includes a base body including a first base edge and a first flexible latching element extending from the first base edge of the base body, the first flexible latching element including a first latching protrusion having a first inclined outer surface and a first shoulder. The elongate base is configured for insertion into the elongate rigid shell with the first flange compressing the first flexible latching element and engaging the first shoulder of the first latching protrusion.
TRIM ASSEMBLY FOR AN APPLIANCE SHELF
An appliance includes a cabinet that has an inner surface. A frame is coupled to the inner surface of the cabinet. The frame includes a frame boss that extends from a bottom surface thereof. A panel is positioned within the frame. The frame extends along a perimeter of the panel. An inner trim member has a flange that extends therefrom. The flange defines an aperture configured to align with the frame boss. A fastener is configured to extend through the aperture and engage the frame boss to couple the inner trim member with the frame. An outer trim member is disposed over the inner trim member. The inner trim member is configured to slidably receive the outer trim member.
