| 20090014133 | Multi-Section Curtain - A multi-section curtain comprises an upper rail including a first curtain body provided therebeneath and fixed by a first offset rail, and including a second curtain body, top end of which is connected with the bottom of the first offset rail, wherein between the first offset rail and the upper rail is defined with a magnetic structure for magnetically engaging the first offset rail with the upper rail together, such that an interspace may be avoidable while reeling the curtain by a reeler. | 01-15-2009 |
| 20100032107 | ENCLOSURE ASSEMBLY - An environmentally controlled enclosure having a cable system that supports a curtain. The use of a cable system to support curtain reduces the cost to manufacture the environmentally controlled enclosure. In this regard, rather than producing an enclosure system substantially formed of steel beams, the cable system requires only a frame formed to support the cable system. The reduction in steel used to form enclosures reduces the overall cost to manufacture the enclosure. Moreover, the cable system is relatively simple in design, which reduces the time to manufacture and set up enclosure. | 02-11-2010 |
| 20100101738 | Partition with Variable-Angle Tiles - A variable-angle tile partition comprises tiles of any shape, material, color, or degree of translucence. In one implementation, the tile partition is constructed with a first row of decorative tiles joined to a second row of tiles using a left or right-angled tile connector. In at least one implementation, the tile partition can further include a third row of tiles joined to the second row of tiles, typically using the other of the left or right-angled tile connector. A manufacturer can continually join each next row of decorative tiles with alternating left or right-handed tile connectors. The unique tying/joining together of tile rows using left or right-angled tile connectors at least partly allows the variable partition to partition constrained spaces in a uniform and variable manner, which can be used to diffuse light or sound, or otherwise provide various aesthetic and structural needs. | 04-29-2010 |
| 20100326605 | END CAP FOR BLIND WITH ENTRY GUIDE - The present invention refers to an end cap with entry guide of the type used as lateral cover for a blind housing. The end caps consist of a base which has an outlet point corresponding to the lateral vertical profiles which serve as a guide for the slats of the blind as it ascends and descends. The entry guides consist of elements situated in the end caps and adjacent to their outlet point, the function of which is to ensure that the slats attack the outlet point of the end cap at an angle which facilitates operation of the blind. The end cap is characterised in that the entry guide is provided with means for adjusting its position so that it varies the distance between it and the mouth of the outlet point. In this way it is possible to use the same end cap for different types and sizes of slats and blinds. | 12-30-2010 |
