Rollout drop down shelves

摘要

A plurality of trays or shelves are adjacently connected to one another and mounted on a frame to rollout and drop down from a stored position in a cabinet to a display position out of the cabinet in a progressively elevated series of connected trays. The series of trays extending from a front tray to a back tray are hingedly connected to one another and slidable on guide tracks of a frame that is secured to the interior base of the cabinet. Link arms positioned laterally of the trays are connected to sidewalls of each tray. The trays move together as a unit on the guide tracks out of the cabinet to a point where the back tray is restrained from further movement out of the cabinet. The link arms pivot downwardly so that the trays slide forwardly in slots of the arms and drop vertically down to progressively elevated heights relative to one another in a tiered arrangement. In the display position all the containers in the trays are visible because none are concealed one behind the other. The trays are lifted upwardly to a horizontal position opposite the cabinet and then pushed back into the cabinet to the stored position.
