Technical Examples

Shoe organization and selection system whereby a person can easily and conveniently find a pair of shoes desired from their closet by selecting the shoe from a computer screen that contains pictures of all of the shoes in the shoe organizer (FIG. 1A), and then the computer will open the appropriate shoe drawer (18) so that the desired shoe can be extracted. The system comprises of a modular shoe organizer rack (FIG. 1A) which will contain the actual shoes, a motorized shoe drawer (18), and a shoe selection console (40), thereby named SSC for short, that will be directly connected to each shoe compartment either wired or wirelessly. The shoe selection console (40) will contain a picture of each shoe (42) contained in the shoe organizer. The pictures will either be a hard copy picture of the shoe which can be slid into the each individual SSC cell (42) (in the case of a push button type console) or it will be an appropriate computer generated picture stored in each cell that will be shown graphically on the SSC. The device is operated as follows. A person wants to grab a pair of red pumps from her closet as quickly as possible. She goes to the SSC and finds the cell containing the picture of the shoe desired. She then selects that shoe by pressing or touching the corresponding cell on the screen. The SSC will then send a signal to the shoe organizer unit (FIG. 1A) to the appropriate shoe compartment (18) programmed for that shoe. It will then activate the motor (50) that will open the shoe compartment (18) and slide the shoe drawer out. The person can now extract the shoes from the compartment. After she extracts the shoes, she taps the extended drawer (18) by pushing it in a little and the reversible motor (50) will automatically slide the drawer back into the shoe organizer.
