79 Temperature-regulated storage and/or display module US11038866 2005-01-21 US07146821B2 2006-12-12 Terry Trent McKibbin
A system that utilizes a rigid support structure of various configurations and materials, with attached item support members designed to hold perishable items to which the module is adapted. A further system of temperature-regulated fluid is employed to flow across the exterior of the support structure upon a free-flow surface in thermal conduction contact with the item support members. The resultant desirable outcome and intention of the system is to thus regulate the temperature of the stored and/or displayed perishable items while simultaneously producing the visual dynamics and potential audible aesthetic qualities of fluid in modified descending motion. The invention lends itself to artistic expressions for design features, within the limits of the claims, while maintaining the technical goals of perishable item preservation, convenience of location within normal living or merchandising space, and display of representative items.
