A counterweight assembly for counteracting vibrations or other forces in an appliance or machine includes a body and a funnel coupled to the body. The body includes an outer surface and an inner surface that defines an internal cavity that is adapted to receive a heavy aggregate material to form a counterweight. The funnel extends outwardly from the body and is adapted to deliver the heavy aggregate material to the internal cavity of the body.

Counterweight assembly and method of manufacturing the same

A shelf assembly includes a shelf panel and a hydrophobic surface applied in a spill containment pattern on the top surface of the shelf panel adjacent to at least one of the left side, right side, front, and rear edges. The shelf panel has a top surface for supporting articles, opposite left and right side edges, and opposite front and rear edges. The spill containment pattern defines at least a portion of a boundary of a central portion of the top surface of the shelf panel. The spill containment pattern includes an outer edge containment strip disposed adjacent to at least one of the left side, right side, front, and rear edges of the shelf panel, an inner edge containment strip spaced inward from the outer edge containment strip, and a non-hydrophobic spill catch area disposed between the outer and inner edge containment strips.

Spill containing refrigerator shelf assembly

The specification discloses a method for containing spills on shelving and the like, and the resulting support members made in accordance with the method, by providing the generally flat top surface of a support with a hydrophobic surface which is arranged in a spill containment pattern and which is generally in the plane of the top surface of the support. The majority of the top surface of the support consists of one or more spill containment areas which are of a non-hydrophobic nature and which are bounded by the hydrophobic surfaces, such that spills on the shelving collect in the non-hydrophobic spill containment area or areas and are prevented from spreading by the hydrophobic surfaces.

A pattern of high temperature hydrophobic surfaces for use with cooking and baking appliances, such as kitchen cooktops, stoves and oven interior walls. The pattern of hydrophobic surfaces confines overflowed liquids to the enclosed non-hydrophobic surface areas and away from protected areas, such as around burner control knobs, burner surfaces, cal rods, fan and vent openings, countertops, and the like. The hydrophobic materials used are able to withstand and effectively repel liquids at high operating temperatures.

A shelving assembly () includes a pair of sheet metal sidearms () having ladder connectors () releasably coupled to cantilever ladders (). An LED strip () having spaced apart LEDs is positioned immediately behind a refrigerator shelf (). A rear form () is used for securing the LED strip () to a refrigerator shelf (). The LED strip () is powered through electrical contact modules () which conductively connect to low voltage power strips ().
