Abstract: A switching system including a switch activation pin, a switch, and a switch connector is provided. The switch activation pin mounts to an arm that pivotally mounts a door to a body of a device. The switch activation pin moves with the arm when the door is opened or closed. The switch mounts to the device to control a component of the device. The switch connector mounts to the device to activate the switch based on a position of the switch activation pin.

Abstract: An appliance comprises a body and a door panel and/or drawer panel movable between a home position, an open position, and an over-travel position. A cosmetic panel may be coupled to the door and/or drawer panel. The appliance may further include an installation system and/or a positioning device. The positioning device is configured to bias the door and/or drawer panels to the home position from the over-travel position. The installation system is configured to establish the front-to-back alignment of the appliance. The installation system may be a direct mount installation system. The installation system may include an adjustment system configured to facilitate positioning the cosmetic panel to be co-planar with the surrounding cabinetry. The adjustment mechanism may further help establish small and consistent reveals.

Abstract: A hinge including a device bracket, a door bracket, a first arm, a second arm, and a closure device is provided. The first arm mounts to the device bracket at a first pin and to the door bracket at a second pin. The second arm mounts to the device bracket at a third pin and to the door bracket at a fourth pin. The third pin is closer to an axis of rotation of a door than the first pin when the door is in a closed position. The closure device includes a closure device body mounted to move with the second arm, a rod mounted within the closure device body, a spring, a spring retainer mounted to the rod, and a nut mounting the rod to the device bracket. The spring is mounted between the spring retainer and the closure device body to exert a force on the second arm.

Abstract: A cantilevered storage shelf assembly for supporting a deli/crisper drawer assembly within a refrigerator having a glass panel, a pair of L-shaped steel brackets aligned on each side of the panel and a frame molded around the edges of the panel with the steel brackets encapsulated in the frame to form a unitary structure, the brackets being located in a parallel spaced relation for mating engagement with slots provided in the vertical strips in the back of the refrigerator, the drawer assembly comprising a pair of rails mounted on the frame, each rail having a tab at each end for matingly engaging the slots in the front and back of each side of the frame and a drawer slidably mounted on the rails.

Abstract: A comestible storage compartment for a refrigeration unit including a drawer slidably received in a supporting frame. The drawer is molded in the form of a tub having a bottom wall, side and end walls and a front wall lip. A front wall panel is disposed in a free standing relationship on the front wall lip approximate the forward edges of the side walls. A front wall cover is disposed over the front wall panel and is secured to the forward edges of the side walls to hold the panel on the lip.A lateral flange projects outwardly from the side walls and includes a downturned lip for defining a drawer track channel. Inwardly directed ribs extend longitudinally from the drawer frame and are disposed for spaced flow interrupting relationship with the lip on the lateral flanges.
