Applications:
A refrigerator shelf, a photocopier inside, a disposable cup, and a TV housing are all common items found in office or household settings.
In a typical office, the refrigerator shelf is used for storing various food items and beverages, helping employees keep their meals fresh throughout the day. The photocopier's inside houses the crucial components that enable it to make copies of documents efficiently and quickly.
Disposable cups are often used for drinking water, coffee, or other beverages in a convenient and hygienic manner. They are easy to use and dispose of after a single use, reducing the need for washing and cleaning.
Meanwhile, the TV housing provides a protective and aesthetic casing for the television set, keeping it safe from damage and integrating it seamlessly into the room's decor.
