  • Patent number: 10947777
    Abstract: A customizable glass wall system is disclosed. The system comprises at least two glazed, transparent panes mounted to a frame, creating an internal space less than approximately five inches thick. At least one upper roller is mounted to an upper portion of the frame, preferably on a removable headboard, and at least one lower roller is mounted to a lower portion of the frame, preferably to a removable tailboard. At least one partitioned film is attached to the upper and lower rollers. The partitioned film has partitions with varied properties and functions, ranging from thermal insulation to decoration, which can be selectively positioned behind the transparent panes by rotating the partitioned film by means of the rollers until a selected partition of film is displayed. The system can be automated based on time, weather, amount of sunlight, or user preference, and it may include window coverings or solar cells.

  • Patent number: 10214958
    Abstract: A customizable glass wall system is disclosed. The system comprises at least two glazed, transparent panes mounted to a frame, which is preferably less than five inches thick. The frame includes a removable headboard whereon multiple rollers are mounted. A film is attached to each of the rollers. The films can be selectively extended and retracted behind the transparent panes in the glass wall system by means of the rollers. Each of the films can be controlled individually by a motor driving each of the rollers. The films can be arranged in any combination to perform various functions, but most importantly, to allow various amounts and types of light to pass through the window system in order to control the thermal insulation of the glass wall system. The system can be automated based on time, amount of sunlight, weather, temperature, and user preference.
