  • Patent number: 11957242
    Abstract: A height adjusting and leveling worksurface cantilever can comprise a leveling mechanism comprising a turnbuckle rod that can adjust an angle of a horizontal frame member relative to a vertical frame member. An assembler can adjust the angle of the horizontal frame member from a pivot point located on a proximal corner of the height adjusting and leveling worksurface cantilever. The height adjusting and leveling worksurface cantilever can also include a height adjusting mechanism comprising a threaded rod that can adjust a height of the height adjusting and leveling worksurface cantilever, relative to a hanger bracket.

  • Patent number: 11952773
    Abstract: A pre-fabricated wall system can include a first thin wall module and a second thin wall module. The two thin wall modules have a depth defined by a distance from a front surface of each thin wall module to aback surface of each thin wall module. The pre-fabricated wall system can further include a vertical connection post that has a first connection interface on a first side configured to secure to the first thin wall module. The first connection interface can include a first channel. The vertical connection post can also include a second connection interface on a second side opposite the first side configured to secure to the second thin wall module. The second connection interface can include a second channel. The two thin wall modules can be parallel or co-planar to one another when the two thin wall modules are secured to the vertical connection post.

  • Publication number: 20220364359
    Abstract: A modular wall system includes a leveler disposed within a wall module. The leveler includes a base to which floor interfacing members of the modular wall system connect. As the leveler adjusts the height of the wall module, the base to which the floor interfacing members attach remain stationary. During installation, the bottom edges of the floor interfacing members can be trimmed to form a consistent gap below the floor interfacing members.

  • Patent number: 11459751
    Abstract: A system for sealing a space defined between a modular wall and a permanent structure includes a sealing material connected to the permanent structure and the modular wall and spanning the space defined therebetween. The sealing material is configured to transform from an expanded state to a recovered state in response to a stimulus to form a seal. The stimulus can be, for example, heat, whereby heating the sealing material at or above the transition temperature for the sealing material causes the sealing material to transition from the expanded state to the recovered state.

  • Patent number: 11326393
    Abstract: A sliding door system (105) includes a track assembly (120) and a door (125) slidably connected to the track. Seals (245, 250, 605, 610, 300, 500) disposed about the door limit sound and/or infectious materials from passing thereby. One or more of the seals (245, 250) are disposed between the door and the track assembly. One or more other seals (605, 610) are disposed between the door and a wall to seal around the trailing end of the door. The system may also include a door dock (130) with one or more seals (300, 500) to seal around the leading end of the door. The system can also include a drop seal assembly (700) that selectively seals off a gap between the bottom of the door and the floor.

  • Patent number: 11261600
    Abstract: A functional wall module for at least partially forming an individual space in a building and for positioning and selectively repositioning one or more objects within the individual space. In one implementation, the functional wall module includes a frame having a plurality of frame supports that define an interior space of the frame. The functional wall module additionally includes a bracket configured to support or couple to moveable platforms, the bracket comprising one or more bracket arms extending away from the interior space and from the frame. The functional wall module additionally includes a positioning mechanism within the interior space and connected to the bracket such that the positioning mechanism is operable to reposition the bracket.

  • Patent number: 11021872
    Abstract: A reconfigurable wall hanger mounting system having a plurality of different types of interchangeable wall modules with different types of compatible connection components, each connection component being configured to align with another connection component at an interface. A channel is formed between two connection components in which a support rail or other accessory may be secured to support a ceiling. Another channel is defined by the connection component that can receive other accessories and accessory mounting mechanisms. A door-opening header module may be secured to a connection component so that a flush surface between the support rail, ceiling, and door-opening header module is created across the top of a door-opening in the reconfigurable wall system.
