Abstract: A trim breaker for sealing an outer wrapper of an appliance with an inner liner to form an insulation space therebetween is provided. The trim breaker includes a body including a rear wall, a first leg extending from the rear wall, and a second leg extending from the rear wall. The trim breaker also includes a front wall coupled with the body opposite the rear wall, wherein the front wall includes a channel extending inward toward the rear wall, and a chamber defined at least in part between the front wall and the rear wall.

Abstract: A vacuum insulated structure includes a trim breaker having a wrapper channel and a liner channel that extend perimetrically about the trim breaker. An inner liner is attached to the trim breaker at the liner channel. An outer wrapper is attached to the trim breaker at the wrapper channel. A metallic plate is disposed within the trim breaker and extends from a first area proximate the liner channel to a second area proximate the wrapper channel. The metallic plate defines an internal barrier to gas permeation through the trim breaker.

Abstract: A refrigeration unit includes a cabinet, a door, and a door support feature positioned proximate to the lower side of the door. The door support feature is movable relative to the cabinet between a first position, wherein the door support feature supports the lower side of the door in the closed position of the door, and a second position, wherein the door support feature is in a spaced-relationship with the lower side of the door in the closed position of the door. The refrigeration unit further includes a toe kick panel operable between an assembled condition and a removed condition. In the assembled condition, the toe kick panel is assembled with the cabinet below the door, such that the toe kick panel conceals the door support feature. In the removed condition, the toe kick panel is removed from the cabinet, such that the door support feature is revealed.

Abstract: A rear bracket for a wall-mounted, appliance shelf assembly includes a central portion that defines a plurality of receiving wells. A first mounting portion extends parallel to the central portion and is configured to align with a first wall of an appliance cabinet. A second mounting portion extends perpendicular to the central portion and is configured to align with a second wall of the appliance cabinet. The second wall is positioned perpendicular to the first wall. A first fastener is configured to couple the first mounting portion with the first wall. A second fastener is configured to couple the second mounting portion with the second wall.

Abstract: A refrigerator includes a cabinet structure having a refrigerator compartment and a freezer compartment. An evaporator is positioned in the freezer compartment within an evaporator housing. A door is pivotally coupled to the cabinet structure for selectively providing access to the refrigerator compartment and includes an ice maker. A duct assembly includes an ice maker feed duct operably coupled to the evaporator housing at a first end, and further coupled to the ice maker at a second end. The duct assembly further includes an ice maker return duct operably coupled to the ice maker at a first end and further coupled to the evaporator housing at a second end. First and second fans are provided in-series, wherein the first fan provides cooled air to the freezer compartment, and the second fan provides cooled air from the first fan to the ice maker during an ice making cycle.
