SUPPORT PART, HOUSING STRUCTURE USING THE SAME, AND ITEM
A support part that supports a lower portion of a housing upon installation of an item on an installation surface, includes: a leg part including an outer leg portion, an inner leg portion, and a connecting portion, the outer leg portion being provided so as to come into contact with the installation surface and extending from a gap between the lower portion of the housing and the installation surface so as to protrude outward of an outer side surface of the housing, the inner leg portion being disposed above the outer leg portion and extending inward of the outer side surface of the housing, the connecting portion connecting the outer leg portion and the inner leg portion inside the outer side surface of the housing; a raising/lowering section that is provided at the lower portion of the housing and that supports the inner leg portion of the leg part so as to raise and lower the inner leg portion; and an operation section that is provided so that a portion of the operation section protrudes outward of an outer side surface of the connecting portion of the leg part and that operates a raising/lowering movement of the raising/lowering section.
Cabinet Assembly Having a Releasable Support Foot
A cabinet assembly includes a base and walls secured to the base to define an interior. The cabinet assembly further includes a pivot pin coupled to the base and a locking device coupled to the base. The locking device is movable relative to the base between an engaged position and a released position. The cabinet assembly additionally includes a support foot. The support foot is fixed to the base in a first orientation when the locking device is in the engaged position. The support foot is movable about the pivot pin to a second orientation spaced from the locking device when the locking device is in the released position.
Support part, housing structure using the same, and item
A support part that supports a lower portion of a housing upon installation of an item on an installation surface, includes: a leg part including an outer leg portion, an inner leg portion, and a connecting portion, the outer leg portion being provided so as to come into contact with the installation surface and extending from a gap between the lower portion of the housing and the installation surface so as to protrude outward of an outer side surface of the housing, the inner leg portion being disposed above the outer leg portion and extending inward of the outer side surface of the housing, the connecting portion connecting the outer leg portion and the inner leg portion inside the outer side surface of the housing; a raising/lowering section that is provided at the lower portion of the housing and that supports the inner leg portion of the leg part so as to raise and lower the inner leg portion; and an operation section that is provided so that a portion of the operation section protrudes outward of an outer side surface of the connecting portion of the leg part and that operates a raising/lowering movement of the raising/lowering section.
METHOD AND APPARATUS STREAMLINING WATER BOTTLE DELIVERY
A storage rack for a plurality of water bottles, including: a plurality of shelves; a plurality of levelers each being configured to support the storage rack, each leveler of the plurality of levelers is operably coupled to one of a plurality of potentiometers that is located between the each leveler of the plurality of levelers and a portion of the storage rack, the plurality of potentiometers are operably coupled to a analog to digital converter that sums signals of the plurality of potentiometers and provides an indication of an amount of weight being supported by the storage rack, the amount of weight being associated with an amount of water bottles being supported by the storage rack.
Control structure
A control structure device for racks or buildings. The device is able to limit forces developed within itself or a structure (e.g. building or storage rack) it connects with and is seismically supportive of as it endures ground or base motion input from a seismic event. The control structure may comprise a relatively inflexible rocker frame which is pivotably connected to a foundation. Rotation of the rocker frame causes a flexural member to flexurally displace to limit force and energy in the system.
SANITIZATION STATION KIT
The invention herein disclosed is a sanitization station kit that comprises sheets of sheet metal components, pre-assembly, that supports minimal shipping volume; and upon delivery at a use site, the panels may be prepared and assembled using only a screw driver.
Front adjustment system for leveling feet for furniture
A compact front adjustment system for leveling feet for furniture (M) with a bottom (12) and shoulders (11), comprising: at least two front feet, a right foot (13d) and a left foot (13s) and at least two rear feet, a right foot (14d) and a left foot (14s), wherein each of said rear feet (14d,14s) comprises an adjustment mechanism in height, which is accessible from outside the foot through respective holes (21d,21s) and which can be maneuvered by means of a maneuvering tool (18). According to the invention, a respective supporting and guiding unit (17d,17s; 22; 25) for said maneuvering tool (18) is provided in combination with said rear feet (14d,14s), said unit being assembled on said bottom (12) of the furniture (M) in an intermediate position between said front feet (13d,13s) according to an axis X which is aligned with said holes (21d,21s) for access to the adjustment mechanism in height of the respective rear foot (14d,14s).
Ladder mount assembly for shelving
A storage solution uses a ladder mount to support a shelving slide or the shelving member itself. The ladder mount can be attached to and extend upward from a base of an enclosure, such as a cabinet. Two or more ladder mounts can be used to support the shelf and/or shelf slide. The ladder mount can permit a shelving system having a width smaller than an enclosure width, to be installed in the enclosure, where one side of the shelf and/or shelf slide can attach to a cabinet side wall, and the other side of the shelf and/or shelf slide can attach to a free-standing ladder mount system. Alternatively, both sides of the shelf slide and/or shelf can be supported by a free-standing ladder mount system.
LADDER MOUNT ASSEMBLY FOR SHELVING
A storage solution uses a ladder mount to support a shelving slide or the shelving member itself. The ladder mount can be attached to and extend upward from a base of an enclosure, such as a cabinet. Two or more ladder mounts can be used to support the shelf and/or shelf slide. The ladder mount can permit a shelving system having a width smaller than an enclosure width, to be installed in the enclosure, where one side of the shelf and/or shelf slide can attach to a cabinet side wall, and the other side of the shelf and/or shelf slide can attach to a free-standing ladder mount system. Alternatively, both sides of the shelf slide and/or shelf can be supported by a free-standing ladder mount system.
Force limiter and energy dissipater
An earthquake force limiter and energy dissipater for racks or buildings. The device allowing stable yielding action of a flexure plate to enable control structures or standard structural frames to form a stable cycling high displacement elasto-plastic mechanism in resistive response to a seismic ground motion input. The stable flexural yielding of the plates limits the magnitude of forces developed within the control structure of which the plates are part of; or within a standard structural frame found in racking structures or general building structures, which the plate is typically directly supportive of. The design reduces prying action or tensile or compressive membrane forces developing in a plate of the device; so that the plate can maintain a stable constant resistive force while yielding to high transverse displacements.
