Abstract

A modular humidor system includes a plurality of humidor cabinets that each have a body section that defines an interior space, and a panel for selectively accessing the internal space. Each of the cabinets including a hygrometer, a removable tray and a humidifier. One or more of the cabinets include a controller that is communicatively linked to the hygrometer and the electronic humidifier. The controller includes a wireless transceiver for allowing remote monitoring and adjustments to the environmental conditions within each cabinet of the system. Each of the cabinets including connectors for securing the cabinets vertically to form a multi-cabinet chest.

         2 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein one of the plurality of humidor cabinets comprises a top cabinet that includes:
 a base section having an open top end, a bottom wall, and a plurality of side walls; and   a lid that is hingedly secured along the open top end.   
     
     
         3 . The system of  claim 2 , further comprising:
 a plurality of protrusions that extend outward from the bottom wall of the base section, and   a first plurality of connectors that are disposed within the plurality of protrusions.   
     
     
         4 . The system of  claim 3 , wherein at least one of the plurality of humidor cabinets comprises a sliding cabinet that includes:
 a housing having an open front end, a top wall, a bottom wall, and a plurality of side walls; and   a drawer that is slidingly engaged within the open front end of the housing.   
     
     
         5 . The system of  claim 4 , further comprising:
 a first plurality of complementary connectors that are disposed along the top wall of the housing.   
     
     
         6 . The system of  claim 5 , wherein the first plurality of connectors and the first plurality of complementary connectors comprise magnetic elements and are configured to secure the top wall of the at least one sliding cabinet to the plurality of protrusions disposed along the top cabinet. 
     
     
         7 . The system of  claim 6 , further comprising:
 a plurality of protrusions that extend outward from the bottom wall of the housing, and   a second plurality of connectors that are disposed within the plurality of protrusions.   
     
     
         8 . The system of  claim 7 , wherein at least one of the plurality of humidor cabinets comprises an multi-purpose cabinet that includes:
 a housing having an open front end, a top wall, a bottom wall, and a plurality of side walls;   a door that is hingedly secured along the open front end of the housing; and   a plurality of shelves that are positioned within the multi-purpose cabinet.   
     
     
         9 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein at least one of the plurality of shelves are slidingly engaged within the multi-purpose cabinet. 
     
     
         10 . The system of  claim 9 , further comprising:
 a second plurality of complementary connectors that are disposed along the top wall of the multi-purpose cabinet housing.   
     
     
         11 . The system of  claim 10 , wherein the second plurality of complementary connectors are configured to engage one of the first plurality of connectors or the second plurality of connectors. 
     
     
         12 . The system of  claim 11 , further comprising:
 a plurality of protrusions that extend outward from the bottom wall of the multi-purpose cabinet housing, and   a third plurality of connectors that are disposed within the plurality of protrusions.
