  • Patent number: 5677030
    Abstract: A shelf assembly for refrigerators, freezers and the like including a glass shelf, an extruded edge trim wrapped around and enclosing the peripheral edges of the shelf, and a shelf supporting unit including a pair of side brackets connected together by spaced apart front and rear bars, the edge trim having a U-shaped construction for receiving the peripheral edges of the shelf therein, so that the edge trim provides a rectangular frame arrangement around the shelf to form a raised dam barrier adjacent the peripheral edges of the shelf to prevent any spilled liquid from running off an upper surface of the shelf, thus making the shelf spillproof. Cut-out securement openings are provided in the shelf edge trim to receive the front and rear bars therein, one of the bars being hooked in one pair of cut-outs, and the other one of the bars being snapped into the other pair of cut-outs.
