Abstract: A breath guard for a food serving system includes first and second supports positioned laterally offset from one another, a guide rail coupled to the first support and extending in a substantially longitudinal direction, an adjustable panel extending between the first and second supports, and an adjustment mechanism coupled to the adjustable panel and configured to selectively engage the guide rail in a series of locations. The adjustable panel is rotatably and translatably coupled to the guide rail and is rotatable relative to the guide rail about an axis of rotation that extends laterally. The adjustment mechanism prevents longitudinal movement of the adjustable panel in a first direction and allows movement in a second direction opposite the first direction when the adjustment mechanism engages the guide rail, such that the adjustable panel is selectively repositionable between a plurality of longitudinal positions.

Abstract: An extending hanger assembly, for a wardrobe system having an enclosure and a door pivotable between open and closed positions, includes: a base on which an article support peg is mounted for linear translation; a mechanism operative to move the article support peg linearly relative to the base; and a control link coupling the door to the mechanism, whereby, upon opening and closing of the door, the control link operates the mechanism to translate the article support peg in opposing linear directions. The mechanism operative to move the article support peg linearly relative to the base can be a scissor mechanism having a proximal end extending toward the door and a distal end extending away from the door, wherein the distal end is attached to the base, and the proximal end is attached to a traveling bracket that carries the article support peg.

The server rack includes a plurality of central power supply units, each of which arranged between the plurality of servers with regular intervals, each of the plurality of central power supply units supplying electric power to one or more of the servers; and a direct-current power supply cable that connects the server and the central power supply unit. The direct-current power supply cable connects each of the servers and the central power supply units within a range of a predetermined distance.

Abstract: A balloon holding assembly includes a bottom support and an upper support each having a top side and a bottom side. A plurality of elongated vertical supports each has an upper end and a lower end. A plurality of couplers is attached to each of the upper and bottom supports for removably coupling each of the upper ends to a bottom side of the upper support and the lower ends to the top side of the bottom support. A cage is removably positionable over the upper support and extends downwardly from the upper support. Helium filled balloons may be positioned in the cage such that the horizontal wall prevents the balloons from floating upwardly away from the frame.

Abstract: A mounting structure for mounting a door to a carrousel of a corner cabinet, wherein the carrousel has a plurality of shelves and a rotary axis, and the door is co-rotatable with the carrousel and is radially movable relative thereto, the mounting structure comprising: a continuous, vertically extending casing which supports the shelves of the carrousel and accommodates further component parts of the mounting structure, the casing being formed by a column which is shaped as a hollow profile and is offset from the rotary axis of the carrousel; a pair of upper and lower bearing constructions rotatably supporting carrousel, and a pair of cantilever arms connecting the column to each of the bearing constructions.

Abstract: A rotary shelf in a refrigerator swings together with a door of the refrigerator for being externally drawn out when the door is opened. The rotary shelf is fan-shaped to have a curved portion at one side, and one side of a linear portion is attached to the door to be exposed out of a cooling chamber while swinging in the door direction when the door is opened. A fixed shelf is formed with a guide groove joined with the curved portion for performing a mutual sliding motion in one side thereof, and other sides thereof are fixed to the interior of the cooling chamber, thereby guiding the motion of the rotary shelf.

Abstract: A cash register hood comprises a front panel 110, two side panels 112 and an overhead panel or tray 116. The hood is fitted to a base board 118 which is fixed to a counter-top. The hood may be assembled using keys 125 and slots 126 integrally formed on the panels. The cash register hood also includes a product display panel 116 and a shelf 117. Trays 32,33 and product dispensers 50 may be attached to the hood as required.

Abstract: A merchandizing device is shown in the preferred form according to the teachings of the present invention as including a display portion for displaying a plurality of one half pairs of products and a storage portion associated with the display portion for storing all of the mates of the one half pairs of products displayed in the display portion. the display portion includes a frame including a rectangular back portion and isosceles trapezoid-shaped top and bottom portions for rotatably mounting three shelf units arranged in a clearing, triangular configuration. Each of the shelf units include vertically arrayed, horizontal, adjustable shelves. The storage portion is shown in the preferred form as first and second cabinets movable between a first position behind the display portion such that the display portion prevents access to the interior of the cabinets and a second position located to the side of the display portion allowing access to the cabinets' interiors.

Abstract: A goods showcase capable of arbitrarily varying depths of respective shelves is herein described. The shelf has struts with a plurality of engaging holes provided on their sides as aligned in columns, and shelf support members which each have a horizontal shelf plate support flange extending from a lower edge of a laterally long L-shaped vertical side plate provided with engaging pieces to be engaged in the engaging holes in the shelf strut and also have a plurality of engaging vertical claws erected from a free edge of the horizontal flange at a predetermined interval. The shelf plates each have a reinforcement crosspiece disposed in the widthwise direction on its back surface, and this crosspiece is provided with an engaging section to which is engage and disengage the engaging claws.

Abstract: A unit for sterilizing instruments in a chemical germicide solution having a container for holding the solution and a cover for closing the container. A tray having slots formed in the bottom thereof receives the instruments. A support for the tray is attached between the cover and the bottom of the container and moves the tray and instruments from a first position of immersion in the solution to a second position above the solution as the cover is pivoted upwardly from the container. The slots in the tray allow the solution to drain from the tray and the instruments.
