20150308617 | Hanging load support - A system for supporting loads from a support structure. The load is supported with threaded rods that are connected from above and below a suspended ceiling of roll-formed sheet metal beams. Clips on the rods connected to the beams pass the load through the suspended ceiling grid without bending or twisting the grid, so that the suspended ceiling remains level, balanced, and intact above the suspended load. | 10-29-2015 |
20150085474 | Beam support - Selected connections in a prior art suspended panel ceiling are modified to provide fixed cantilevered extensions that support aluminum beams (ABs) with light emitting diode (LED) lights. The ABs with LED lights can be installed in the suspended ceiling to the fixed cantilevered extensions after the prior art portion of the suspended ceiling is completed. | 03-26-2015 |
20140341640 | SUSPENDED CEILING GRID ADAPTER - An L-shaped adapter that secures a single cross beam to a main beam, in a suspended ceiling. | 11-20-2014 |
20140329395 | CONNECTORS FOR ELECTRICALLY ACTIVE GRID - A connector for electrical connection to an electrified grid element having first and second conductors disposed on a top portion of the grid element. In one embodiment, the connector comprises a single-piece insulator housing; a fastening means on the insulator housing for attaching the connector to a device; and first and second contacts within the insulator housing, the insulator housing configured to align the first and second contacts with the first and second conductors of the electrified grid element; wherein a base of the insulator housing comprises a recess that corresponds to the shape of the top portion of the grid element such that the housing can be mounted over the top portion of the grid member. | 11-06-2014 |
20140144099 | Beam clip with teeth - A saddle connector, having an inverted channel, engages a bulb of a beam in the grid of a suspended ceiling. The channel has hardened teeth staggered along the opposing walls of the channel. The teeth are forced into the bulb of the beam, one at a time, by the full force exerted by hand operated pliers. | 05-29-2014 |
20140069041 | Suspended ceiling grid adapter - An L-shaped adapter that secures a single cross beam to a main beam, in a suspended ceiling. | 03-13-2014 |
20130042560 | Noise damper - Noise dampers of sound absorbent material are inserted on the metal grid beams in a suspended ceiling. | 02-21-2013 |
