Abstract: A refrigerating appliance includes a cabinet including an outer wrapper defining opposing first and second sidewalls, a rear wall coupling the first and second sidewalls, and an inner liner. An insulating cavity that is under vacuum is defined between the outer wrapper and inner liner. A trim breaker forms a seal between the outer wrapper and the inner liner. A mullion extends across an access opening. A mullion bracket extends across the access opening where the mullion bracket includes first and second ends having engagement portions coupled with an exterior surface of the outer wrapper. A pair of recesses on the exterior surface of the outer wrapper provide corresponding gaps between the first and second ends of the mullion bracket and the first and second sidewalls, respectively.

Abstract: A system can include a processor; memory accessible to the processor; a first display housing that includes a first display, a first display surface and a recess; a second display housing that includes a second display, a second display surface, where the second display housing is translatable at least partially out of the recess to expose at least a portion of the second display surface adjacent to the first display surface; a sensor that generates a position signal for position of the second display; and circuitry that controls rendering of information to the second display based at least in part on the position signal.

Abstract: An electronic device is provided that includes a housing that has a sensor mounting panel, and first and second sensors mounted in the housing and oriented to extend through the sensor mounting panel to face an environment of interest. The electronic device is operable to change an operating state, of the first sensor, between first, second and third operating states. The first operating state represents a network sharing state in which the first type of information collected by the first sensor is shared with the network resource through the communications interface. The second operating state represents a local state in which the first type of information is maintained locally on, and is solely accessible to, the one or more processors of the electronic device and is not shared with the network resource.
