A rack and drawer system includes a tray having at least one glider mechanism and at least one rotation mechanism coupled to the side of the tray, wherein the at least one glider mechanism is operable to allow the tray to move back and forth along a glider mechanism axis, and wherein the tray is operable to rotate about the at least one rotation mechanism. In another embodiment, the rack system further includes at least one hinge mechanism coupled to a first end of the at least one glider mechanism, wherein the at least one hinge mechanism is operable to allow the tray to pivotally move relative to a pivot point.

The present invention is for a novel pivotable shelving system utilizing (in some embodiments) one or more D-shaped shelves that may pivot such that when it is in a cabinet and the flat portion of the D shape is at a front edge of the cabinet, when the shelf is rotated, a portion of the shelf extends beyond the front of the cabinet. Other improvements in some embodiments include devices having multiple swiveling spinners which may each operate/pivot independently as well as multiple shelves of varied geometry to enable taller items to be placed on the lower shelf and extent above an upper shelf.

A shelf assembly for an appliance includes a shelf support operably coupled with a cabinet liner. First and second supports are positioned below the shelf support. The first and second supports are positioned on opposing sidewalls of the cabinet liner. A rear shelf portion is slidably supported on the shelf support between rearward and forward positions. A front shelf portion is positioned adjacent to the rear shelf portion and is movable between a raised position and a lowered position. A plurality of rotatable arms are configured to support the front shelf portion. Each rotatable arm of the plurality of rotatable arms is operably coupled with one of the first and second supports at a first end and is further operably coupled with the front shelf portion at a second end. A connecting arm interconnects the rear shelf portion and the front shelf portion.

A shelf assembly and components thereof, for concealing items of value of an owner from a passerby. The shelf assembly forms a concealment enclosure including a door movably connected to a shelf to permit movement of the door with respect to the shelf between an open position and a closed position. In the closed position, the door hides an interior. In the open position, access to the interior is permitted. The door includes a support surface, including a plurality of openings, arranged to be in the concealed interior when the door is closed position. A plurality of pegs are sized and shaped to be received in the plurality of openings to support the pegs extending outward from the support surface to form a customized mount for holding items of value.

A shelf assembly includes a frame assembly having a side member, wherein the frame assembly is operable between stowed and extended positions. A rack assembly includes a first rack hingedly coupled to a second rack. The first rack and the second rack are pivotally coupled to the side member of the frame assembly, and the rack assembly is operable between first and second positions. The first rack and the second rack are angled towards a pivot axis defined between the first rack and the second rack when the rack assembly is in the second position. The rack assembly moves from the first position to the second position as the frame assembly moves from the stowed position to the extended position.

The present invention relates to a household appliance and more particularly a refrigeration appliance having a shelf which is sectionally arranged to provide a space-increasing shelf assembly. The present invention more specifically relates to a refrigeration appliance having a sectionally organized shelf assembly (1) in a refrigeration cabin thereof, the shelf assembly (1) comprising a front and a rear shelf units (2, 3) respectively neighboring in the depthwise direction of the refrigeration cabin, the front and rear shelf units (2, 3) being displaceable relative to a pair of brackets to which they are attachable.

A sliding shelf system includes a support structure including a plurality of posts, and a base mounted to the posts in a stationary manner. A slidable shelf is mounted to the base for movement between a stored position and an extended position. A wheel supports the shelf in the extended position. A notch is provided in the support structure for receipt of the wheel when the shelf is in the stored position. A latch includes a pivoting handle, a cable, and a slidable rod wherein pivoting of the handle moves the slidable rod. A rod with a hook engages an aperture in the pivoting handle of the latch of the slidable shelf. A socket on the slidable shelf receives a distal end of a rod, a proximal end of the rod defines a handle for grasping by the user.

A refrigerator includes a cabinet having an inner case and a drawer assembly installed on both side walls of the inner case. The pantry assembly includes a basket capable of being inserted and withdrawn from the storage chamber; a supporter assembly connected to the basket and guiding insertion and withdrawal of the basket; and a cover connected to the supporter assembly that moves in a direction opposite to the basket when the basket is inserted or withdrawn. The basket includes a first roller rotatably installed on both side walls thereof, and the supporter assembly includes a supporter having a guide rail that receives the first roller and a transmission unit for transmitting the moving force of the basket to the cover.

Rack systems, devices, and methods for attaching and providing foldable storage racks underneath refrigerator shelves or cabinets or other shelves for suspending, storing and separating wine bottles and beverage cans and plates. The storage racks can include a plurality of bail cradles each having ends pivotally attached to brackets. The bail cradles can have concave support surfaces for supporting and separating bottles and cans.

A shelf component including a generally flat, planar base and a pair of side panels, each side panel being coupled to the base on opposite sides thereof. Each side panel is pivotally coupled to said base such that each side panel is positionable generally on a first side of the base. Each side panel has an opening configured to receive a mounting hook therethrough. The shelf component further includes a pair of extension hooks coupled to at least one of the side panels or the base. Each extension hook is positionable on a second side of the base that is opposite the first side.
