ABSTRACT:
A refrigerator door tray assembly includes a refrigerator door with an inner liner having a cavity defined by a rear wall and two forwardly projecting supporting side walls. Each of the side walls includes an inwardly projecting shoulder having an upwardly facing ledge that slopes downwardly toward the rear wall at a predetermined angle. A tray is provided for insertion into the cavity between the side walls. The tray comprises upstanding walls each having an outwardly extending arm. The arm has a downwardly facing surface that slopes downwardly at the predetermined angle such that the downwardly facing surface of the arm is adapted to at least partially engage the ledge during insertion and lie flush on the ledge once inserted into the cavity. The tray further includes laterally extending flanges adapted to engage the ends of the supporting side walls so as to cooperate with the arms and ledges to positively locate the tray in the door cavity. The flanges help to locate the bin above the shoulders in the door liner so that the tray can move downwardly into engagement with the shoulders to positively locate the tray in the cavity.
