Abstract: A refrigerator shelving system includes a stationary shelf, a pair of first and second sliders supported under opposite sides of the stationary shelf and configured to move longitudinally front and rear support tabs associated with each of the sliders and longitudinally spaced from each other, and a folding shelf. A front pair of opposing suspenders have first portions pivotally attached to the sliders and a second portions pivotally attached to the folding shelf. A rear pair of opposing suspenders have first portions pivotally attached to the sliders and second portions pivotally attached to the folding shelf. The folding shelf is movable from a deployed position, in which the front and rear suspenders are vertical to place the folding shelf under, and spaced from, the stationary shelf, to a folded position in which the front and rear suspenders are horizontal and disposed on top surfaces of the front and rear support tabs to nest the folding shelf under the stationary shelf.
