Abstract: A refrigeration system comprising a refrigerated cabinet having a front opening through which access is gained to the cabinet and the cabinet being subdivided into at least one compartment. Each compartment is adapted to be occupied by a drawer, each drawer being moveable within the compartment from a retracted position at which it is accommodated within the compartment and an extended position at which it partly extends forwardly from the compartment and whereby the interior of the drawer is accessible. The system further comprises cooling means provided remote from the cabinet. Each compartment has valved porting means provided in a rear wall thereof for connecting to the cooling means wherein when the drawer is in the retracted position, the cooling means is in fluid communication with the drawer and when the drawer is in an extended position the cooling means is isolated from the compartment.

Abstract: A refrigerated cabinet (11) comprising storage space having a front opening through which access is gained to the space, the space including a zone subdivided into at least one compartment (15), each compartment (15) defined by a drawer (31), each drawer (31) being moveable from a retracted position at which it is accommodated within the zone and an extended position at which it extends forwardly from the space, wherein when the drawer (31) is in the retracted position the compartment is connected to a cooling means (23) and when the drawer is in the extended position the interior of the compartment is accessible from an upper portion of the drawer (31) and the drawer (31) is isolated from the cooling means (23), the isolation means being associated with the cabinet (11) to sealingly isolate the cooling means (23) from the compartment (15) when the drawer (31) is not in the retracted position.
