Furniture spacer
A furniture spacer (1) that maintains an even gap between a piece of furniture and a wall thereby protecting the furniture and wall from damage while providing an attractive design aesthetic.
CABINET FOOT AND CABINET FOOT SYSTEM
A foot for a cabinet comprises a body having a longitudinal axis, an upper end and a lower end, a leveler adjustably connected to the lower end of the body and mounting locations. The leveler is adjustable to vary a longitudinal dimension of the foot. The mounting locations are on the body and ferromagnetically couple one or more foundation members in place adjacent the foot. A foot system and other components are also described.
Millwork leveler
The present disclosure provides systems, components, and methods for leveling millwork. In one or more implementations, a millwork leveling device and/or kit for leveling millwork include a track, a first leveling post, and a second leveling post. The leveling posts are movably positionable along the track. The first leveling post has a first adjustable height and the second leveling post has a second adjustable height. The device and/or kit may further include a plate associated with the first leveling post, the plate having one or more through holes and attaching a finishing piece thereto.
Movable front panel for home appliance
A domestic appliance may include: a shell; a door coupled to the shell; a treatment compartment defined at least in part by the shell and the door; a panel configured to enclose at least a portion of a cavity below the treatment compartment; an articulation arrangement coupled to the shell and configured to allow the panel to move from a closed and locked vertical position to an unlocked and open non-vertical position whilst being coupled to the shell; and a locking mechanism configured to selectively lock the panel in the vertical position. The articulation arrangement may include a first linear slot and a second slot including a linear portion and a curved portion extending from one end of the linear portion, the first linear slot engaging a first pin and the second slot engaging a second pin.
MOVABLE FRONT PANEL FOR HOME APPLIANCE
A domestic appliance may include: a shell; a door coupled to the shell; a treatment compartment defined at least in part by the shell and the door; a panel configured to enclose at least a portion of a cavity below the treatment compartment; an articulation arrangement coupled to the shell and configured to allow the panel to move from a closed and locked vertical position to an unlocked and open non-vertical position whilst being coupled to the shell; and a locking mechanism configured to selectively lock the panel in the vertical position. The articulation arrangement may include a first linear slot and a second slot including a linear portion and a curved portion extending from one end of the linear portion, the first linear slot engaging a first pin and the second slot engaging a second pin.
Lighted toe kick for cabinets
A lighted toe kick system includes at least one toe kick panel configured to abut against a front surface of a cabinet. The toe kick panel includes a first surface, the first surface including one or more openings, the one or more openings receiving at least one lighting component, and a generally planar second surface configured for mounting to the front surface of the cabinet. The toe kick panel also includes an upper panel cover section coupled to the toe kick panel. The upper panel cover section is configured to at least partially cover the lighting component, and further configured to direct at least a portion of the light generated via the lighting component substantially parallel to the first surface of the toe kick panel.
Link assembly for synchronizing a cabinet toe kick plate with a door of the cabinet
The link assembly constitutes a mechanical connection between a cabinet door (108) and a toe kick plate (112) of the cabinet with both panels being hingedly attached to the same cabinet sidewall (114). The link assembly causes the toe kick plate (112) to move in synchronization with the movement of the door (108) and, when the cabinet door (108) is opened, the link causes the toe kick plate (112) to move into a position underneath the door (108). The link assembly pivots and self-adjusts dimensionally as required throughout the range of movement of the two hinged panels. The link assembly incorporates a resiliently biased over-center mechanism which urges the door (108) to remain in the open position until closed intentionally. The link assembly provides dual-axes adjustability for, and also supports the weight of, the toe kick plate free-swinging edge (112a).
MILLWORK LEVELER
The present disclosure provides systems, components, and methods for leveling millwork. In one or more implementations, a millwork leveling device and/or kit for leveling millwork include a track, a first leveling post, and a second leveling post. The leveling posts are movably positionable along the track. The first leveling post has a first adjustable height and the second leveling post has a second adjustable height. The device and/or kit may further include a plate associated with the first leveling post, the plate having one or more through holes and attaching a finishing piece thereto.
Cabinet foot and cabinet foot system
A foot for a cabinet comprises a body having a longitudinal axis, an upper end and a lower end, a leveler adjustably connected to the lower end of the body and mounting locations. The leveler is adjustable to vary a longitudinal dimension of the foot. The mounting locations are on the body and ferromagnetically couple one or more foundation members in place adjacent the foot. A foot system and other components are also described.
Height-adjustable work table
Height-adjustable work table, preferably kitchen table comprising at least one cabinet on top of which a table top is located. The cabinet(s) is located on a number of electrically driven height-adjustable platforms. In that the platforms are mutually retained by at least one connection rail these appear as stable both during the assembly of the work table and of the assembled table. Between a surface, typically a floor on which the platform is located, and an underside of the cabinet a toe kick is placed. This toe kick is telescopic in height such that the toe kick regardless of the adjusted height of the kitchen table shuts off access under the cabinet. The connection rail may constitute an element of the telescopic toe kick.
