Abstract

See full text

A support base for a front-loading sterilizer includes a retractable shelf for staging items to be loaded into the sterilizer, and for drying and cooling items that are removed from the sterilizer. The retractable shelf includes a holding element characterized by periodically-spaced lateral troughs and crests. Items to be dried may be positioned on the crests so that ambient air may flow below the items for drying and condensate may drain into the troughs. The drying element may be fixed to or removable from the holding element. The support base may optionally and integrally include chassis members of the sterilizer.
