REFRIGERATOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240230212 titled 'REFRIGERATOR
The abstract of the patent application describes a refrigerator with a rack gear assembly on the lower surface of a drawer, allowing for maximum pushing-out distance and full closure even when the sides are not parallel.
- The rack gear assembly includes a first rack member and a second rack member that are sequentially pushed out to maximize the pushing-out distance of the drawer.
- This innovation ensures that the drawer can be fully closed even when opposite sides are pushed in a storage chamber without being parallel.
- The design of the rack gear assembly allows for efficient use of space within the refrigerator.
- By utilizing this mechanism, the refrigerator can accommodate various items while maintaining a secure and closed storage space.
- This technology enhances the usability and functionality of the refrigerator, providing convenience for users.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be applied to various types of refrigerators, both for residential and commercial use. - It can also be implemented in other storage systems where maximizing space and ensuring secure closure are important.
Problems Solved: - Ensures that the drawer of the refrigerator can be fully closed even in non-ideal conditions. - Maximizes storage space within the refrigerator while maintaining functionality.
Benefits: - Improved usability and convenience for users. - Efficient use of space within the refrigerator. - Enhanced security and closure of the storage compartments.
Commercial Applications: - This technology can be utilized by refrigerator manufacturers to enhance the design and functionality of their products. - It can also be marketed to consumers as a feature that improves the overall user experience.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the rack gear assembly improve the functionality of the refrigerator drawer? 2. What are the potential applications of this technology beyond refrigerators?
Original Abstract Submitted
a refrigerator may include a rack gear assembly provided on a lower surface of a drawer. the rack gear assembly may have a first rack member and a second rack member that are pushed out by being moved forward sequentially so that a pushing-out distance of the drawer is maximized and the drawer is fully closed even when opposite sides thereof are pushed in a storage chamber without being in parallel.
