Abstract
The invention relates to two telescopic extensions that can be deployed in a refrigerating device to support thereon a goods carrier, such as a door-type goods carrier for refrigerated goods. Bridges are mounted on movable rails of the telescopic extensions and delimit, together with the movable rail, a gap for receiving a first carrier tab element of the goods carrier. The width of the gap is larger than the thickness of the first carrier tab element, and a first stabilizer tab element is inserted into the free space remaining after the first carrier tab element is inserted into the gap.
Claims8
A telescopic extension assembly comprising:
- a.) a pair of telescopic extensions that support a goods carrier, the telescopic extensions being movable an extended disposition in which the telescopic extensions are extended relative to a reference location and a retracted disposition in which the telescopic extensions have been retracted toward the reference location and the telescopic extensions being movable relative to one another during the movement between their extended disposition and their retracted disposition;
- b.) a first slot bridge mounted on a side of a respective one of the telescopic extensions, the first slot bridge having an outward portion that extends in a width direction perpendicular to the direction of extension and retraction movement to a greater extent than an adjacent portion of the respective one telescopic extension such that there is a first gap between the outward portion of the first slot bridge and the adjacent portion of the respective one telescopic extension, the first slot bridge being operable to receive a first carrier tab element of the goods carrier that has been inserted into the first gap with the width of the first carrier tab element of the goods carrier being less than the width of the first gap such that a free space remains in the first gap following insertion thereinto of the first carrier tab element of the goods carrier;
- and
- c.) a first stabilizer tab element received in the remaining free space of the first gap.
