  • Patent number: 5065559
    Abstract: A wall system is comprised of wall frame components and wall covering components. The wall frame components include a pair of space vertical supports and an array of selectively spaced cross membes spanning between and rigidly attached to the vertical supports. Pinch bars, designed to matingly engage the frame cross members are mounted on wall covering components in a matching spaced array. The wall covering components are secured to the wall frame component by matingly engaging the pinch bars with the cross member supports.The wall frames include locking connectors such that vertical supports of multiple frame components are serially locked together to form a wall system of any desired floor plan configuration. An infinitely variable hinge frame corner connector and a universal medial connector facilitate the construction of non-linear and/or complex floor plan configurations.
