Eco-Accessible Fridge
Since my Web page in dormant I added more pictorals and linked this to the 2008 entry. My serious 3 year disability from stress gave me the insight to many future social issues for the aging population demands and fixed-income disabled needing lower utility bills or even jobs. The Modular concept and fewer parts with safer assembly by light weight parts and less sharpe metal edges means less back strains and fatigue.The Modular power/cooling unit adapts to any Nations system and can be shipped as a incomplete-unit for unique Applications. I made a Base-Model with few alteration for 3 variations to keep the costs down,and the Cord-Free design means that 5 million units would save about 4800 miles of copper,rubber,plastic and weight to ship the current 5-6 Ft. one and that's like having a Cord running from New York city to Honolulu Hawaii. Some features aren't shown for Patent reasons but the multiple Application from Pool Side to Pool table rec-room or Office's with Button-tuffed Leather or Wood means less Parts catalogs,parts-Numbers,and material inventory storage.The Oil-Free Compressor and new Door seal design reduces noise and Power use,and the Fridge design is about 95% parts from existing Parts for assembly and measurements.Note the tactile gap for vision issues to find the x/y axis where handles are no more than a few inches away,I have a Adapter to Lock 2 handles vertically for a 3-door if desired.Since Sear-Roebuck used to sell Model-T's by mail-order,I plan to seel them via eBusinesses with a 'Option-List' to build to order.Home based Licensing will include the Disabled for District Rights including the 'Parts' upgrades such as Door-Veneers or Handle colors along with spare parts.Internal racks and door shelves fit in Dishwashers to sterilize from spills.Gauge-sets monitor power use and mitigate the Repair-fraud to seniors,they also alert you to spoiled foods or over-packing that taxes the Compressor.The bottom cover lowers noise and eliminates back injuries from moving a 400 lbs fridge to clean under it.Since GM used to make Fridges under the Fridgidaire Badge,I increased the strength by a frame that can be spot-welded by robots in a Shared Auto plant. The Carton size was selected to maximize shipping in a 105x105 truck trailer,and my Trailer version and railway box car was made to Load or unload in less than 4 minutes. Please read my other features for the Medical/Safety/Sustainable versions of the fridge.
