    Abstract: An expanded kiosk and kiosk system that is collapsible and deployable by expansion and contraction. The kiosk includes a lighting system adapted to provide a light characteristic to the kiosk and represent a lamp post or light post for public or private spaces. Deployment of the kiosk includes moving first and second vertically-oriented structural units away from one another such that one or more of a canopy, a working surface and/or a front-facing surface are fully deployed and the canopy surface and working surface are substantially parallel to one another.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10293735
    Abstract: An expandable structure that includes front and rear structural units having inside-facing surfaces parallel to one another, a retractable top that spans the front and rear structural units, and first and second retractable partitions each of which spans and connects the front and rear structural units. The front structural unit is fixably attached to a substrate and the rear structural unit is mounted on a rolling mechanism so that the rear structural unit may be moved away from the front structural unit in an orientation perpendicular to the face of the first structural unit to a distance equivalent to a deployed depth of the first retractable partition, the second retractable partition and the retractable top.

  • Patent number: 10124710
    Abstract: An expandable kiosk structure with a front face, a rear face, a first side structural unit and a second side structural unit arranged such that the front face and rear face are parallel and connect the first and second side structural units to form a box shaped structure that is expandable from a collapsed form an expanded form in which the front face, the rear face, and the first and second side structural units define an interior workspace in the box shaped structure. The front and rear faces each have an outwardly extendable portion that is hingeably or pivotally foldable onto a remaining portion of the front or rear face. Rolling mechanisms are disposed bottom corners and extendable brackets are disposed at the top corners connecting to a shading unit supported by a shading unit support structure. Front and rear shelf units are hingeably attached to the front and rear faces.
