  • Patent number: 8870306
    Abstract: A hospitality environment item, namely, interchangeable decorative panels that include laminates and their placement on underbar furniture/equipment. The decorative panels may each have their own laminate finish. Flanges attached to the underbar furniture/equipment extend to conceal edges of the decorative panels and extend over a peripheral region of the face of the decorative panel. The decorative panels have holes arranged to allow draw-pull handles to be secured to a drawer/door and a lock to penetrate into the drawer/door. Other decorative panels have holes that allow light to shine through from lights in backsplash sections.

  • Publication number: 20110261832
    Abstract: A method for exchanging data using a controller includes selectively setting an exchange mode to one of a synchronous mode and an asynchronous mode, and determining whether to execute an input data exchange or an output data exchange. The input data exchange is based at least in part on an input reference that identifies an input/output (I/O) module from which the input data is retrieved, and the output data exchange is based at least in part on an output reference that identifies the I/O module to store the output data.

  • Publication number: 20110241503
    Abstract: A line of kitchen and/or food service-type appliances that have decorative covers that are interchangeable. Each interchangeable cover may be a form fitting cover or a façade panel. The appliance units may be modified to change their appearance with interchangeable decorative covers, such that interchangeability and modification are made quick, easy and affordable. Preferably, the appliances are within their own modular reconfigurable appliance receptacle having an array of connectors to accommodate to hold a plurality of different appliance units. Each receptacle has a frame for holding various appliance units in different spatial configuration, generally horizontal and vertical, and connectors to quickly connect and/or disconnect the appliance units to the type of power utility necessary, such as gas for a stove, and electricity for a microwave oven.
