Abstract: A tray slide and a support therefor, especially for a serving counter module, in which the tray slide consists of a support bracket arrangement tiltably connected to one side of the module, and which support bracket arrangement is adapted detachably to receive a tray slide member, preferably formed of plastic, from above. The support bracket arrangement can be locked in position in which the tray slide is horizontal for receiving trays of it can be released and tilted downwardly at the side of the module for movement of the counter from place to place and through doorways.

Abstract: A breath guard canopy for a serving unit of the type in which individuals move trays along one or both sides of the serving unit and receive food stuffs therefrom either by self-service or by being served. A breath guard, or canopy, in the form of at least one sheet of transparent material is supported on the unit in such a position as to be interposed between individuals moving along the unit and food stuffs contained in the unit, thereby protecting the food stuffs from the possibility of contamination. An illumination unit may be incorporated in the canopy to illuminate such foodstuff.

Abstract: An end panel construction for modular units in which a pair of end panels adapted to be mounted on opposite ends of a mobile modular counter unit or on the opposed ends of adjacent mobile modular counter units are complementarily contoured with vertical convolutions so as to nest together when placed in face to face relation. The end panels are also formed with transversely extending tongues and grooves which interfit when the panels are in face to face engagement and lock the panels together in vertical registration. The convolutions on the panels extend vertically thereon and in laterally spaced relation so that the two panels will nest together in a plurality of laterally adjusted positions while the tongues and grooves thereon will lock the panels together in all of the said adjusted positions.
