Abstract

A household refrigerator shelf assembly includes an unitary support structure having a rear and spaced apart side walls with a horizontally oriented channel extending around the periphery of the structure. A high tempered, high strength sheet is mounted in the channel with adhesive positioned between the sheet and the support structure. The side walls extend along only the rear portion of sides of the glass sheet and bosses are formed in the channel to assure room for an effective amount of adhesive.
