  • Patent number: 6932225
    Abstract: The storage system is a suspended storage system in which one or more uprights are hung from a crossbar (24) and storage elements such as shelves or cabinets are attached to the uprights (1). Each of the uprights (1) is attached to the crossbar (24) by means of a coupling hook (25) which is removably attached to the end of the upright (1) and removably engages with the crossbar (24). The coupling hook (25) has a hook body (26) with a pair of L-shaped hooks (34) for engagement in the slots in the upright (1) and a grub screw (33) arranged to engage with the interior wall of the upright (1) so as to prevent relative movement of the coupling hook (25) with respect to the upright (1) when attached thereto. With this arrangement of the coupling hook (25), attachment to and removal of the coupling hook (25) from the crossbar (24) does not result in consequential loosening of the attachment of the coupling hook (25) to the upright (1).

  • Patent number: 6684597
    Abstract: An elongate edging strip for trimming the edges of building panels such as tiles comprises an extruded profile made from a vinylaromatic homopolymer or copolymer. The profile comprises a leg section (1), intended to locate under the building panel and an upstanding section (2), both of solid material. The upstanding section (2) is turned inwards to form a groove containing a fillet (7) of foamed material. In an alternative aspect, a method of making an elongate edging strip is described, said method comprising extruding a profile comprising a base section and two spaced upstanding sections, forming a longitudinal line of weakness in the base section, and breaking the profile apart at said line of weakness to form two edging strips.
