Abstract
A shelf assembly includes a rotating hinge body rotatably coupled to a stationary hinge body, and a shelf fixed to the rotating hinge body that is rotatable with the rotating hinge body relative to the stationary hinge body about a rotational axis. The shelf is rotatable between first and second positions. Moreover, the shelf assembly includes a cam assembly configured to inhibit rotation of the shelf between its first and second positions. The cam assembly includes a cam fixed to one of the stationary hinge body and rotating hinge body, a cam follower movably attached to the other of the stationary hinge body and rotating hinge body, and a biasing member that biases the cam follower into engagement with the cam. The rotatable shelf includes a glass panel having an upper surface with a plurality of edge portions. At least one of the edge portions is exposed.
