  • Patent number: 6238032
    Abstract: A refrigerated cabinet with adjustable shelves includes a cabinet having a molded plastic liner defining a refrigeration compartment. A plurality of shelves are disposed in the refrigeration compartment. Shelf supports are integrally molded with the liner to support said plurality of shelves in both horizontal and tilted positions. Integrally formed back stops define channels for air to flow vertically through the cabinet and help lock the shelves in place to prevent accidental dislodging. The liner also defines a housing for the evaporator coil and fan in the upper portion of the liner. Shoulders are integrally formed along the top corners of the liner. The fan panel mounts to the shoulders on opposing sides of the liner and serves as the bottom of the evaporator housing.
