  • Publication number: 20080238275
    Abstract: The invention relates to a recessed frame for supporting at least one fixture in a wall opening, wherein one such fixture may be for instance a dispenser for paper. The frame comprises a first sub frame having spaced apart wall members defining an opening; the first sub frame having first flange members for mounting the first sub frame flush with a wall surface surrounding the wall opening. The frame further comprises a second sub frame having the same geometric configuration as said first sub frame, at least one section of said second sub frame being arranged to telescope with respect to said first sub frame. The second sub frame may be arranged for adjustable positioning relative to the first sub frame by means of said telescoping relationship with respect to the wall surface surrounding the said wall opening. The fixture is releasably attached to the second sub frame. Releasable securing means are provided for locking the first and second sub frames relative to each other in a predetermined position.

  • Patent number: 6305867
    Abstract: A connection is provided for the sections of a separable guide tube and of a drive shaft disposed therein. Shaft sections of the drive shaft are interlockingly coupled together, wherein the ends of the shaft sections interengage one another. One of the shaft sections has an insertion end having a rotationally symmetrical non-circular cross-sectional configuration. A drive sleeve is coaxially secured to the other shaft section and has a coupling cross-sectional configuration that corresponds to the insertion end. Which is introduceable into the driving sleeve. An axial introduction adapter is provided on the driving sleeve and has at least one inwardly projecting introduction ramp, which extends over an angle of curvature between two adjacent large diameters of the coupling cross-sectional configuration of the driving sleeve. The introduction ramp includes an axially decreasing ramp surface that forms a shoulder for the insertion end.
