I've seen something similar. Within the cabinet is a shelf that raises and lowers on metal, folding arms, so one can place a heavy mixer or something on it, then just pull it out and up to the level of the counter.

How would you clean the appliances? |

You can take them out for cleaning (they're probably just clamped to a pop-up shelf, easily removed) then put them back on the pop-up thingamajig so when you need to use them they're ready to go. |

You could take apart an old sewing machine table for the mechanism |

Could this be voice activated? I don't just want to be a Chef, I want to be a Star Fleet Commander Chef. "Activate Can Opener". |
