Benefits of technology

This patent is about a refrigerator with a pizza pocket attached to the inside of the frozen section of the refrigerator. The pizza pocket can be locked to prevent access or unlocked to allow access to the interior space. The pizza pocket can also be accessed through a slot in the refrigerator door. The technical effect of this patent is a more convenient and easy way to access the pizza pocket in a refrigerator.

Problems solved by technology

Currently, it is difficult to store frozen pizza boxes or any item (e.g., with a large width and small thickness) in a drawer-style freezer section of a bottom mount freezer.
