| 20110018406 | FOOD-LINE SERVING COUNTER WITH ADJUSTABLE TRAYSLIDE - The disclosure provides a food-line serving counter with an adjustable trayslide that readily adjusts to different heights using the frame of the counter's trayslide elevator assemblies. Multiple trayslide elevator assemblies can be coupled together, even around angles, to allow a variety of types of trayslides, including long and curving trayslides, to be elevated to different heights on the counter. With the present invention, a customer can purchase a food-line serving counter, and use it at a variety of heights for different groups of children, disabled persons, and those with special needs from a single facility and satisfy federal and state requirements. A trayslide actuator can be placed at a variety of locations suitable for the installation and raise the entire trayslide from a single position.
