  • Patent number: 10221580
    Abstract: A modular wall system for use in trade shows includes a wall or header panel formed of frame parts, and a connecting bracket for detachably connecting the end of the panel to an upstanding column. Perpendicular sections of a corner connector are received in the hollow end of different ones of the frame parts to connect the frame parts. A fabric cover defines a recess with an open end adapted to receive the frame parts. A closure device is provided for at least partially closing the open end of the fabric cover. A vertical support member extends from the frame parts to a surface to transmit the weight of an accessory to the surface. The accessory may be an adjustable garment rack, a coupling grid, a shelving unit, or a peg-board unit and a hook. The system includes a crate adapted to receive a plurality of members for transport.

  • Patent number: 10174407
    Abstract: A titanium alloy comprising an elevated level of oxygen is disclosed. The alloy may have 5.5 to 6.75 weight percent of aluminum, 3.5 to 4.5 weight percent of vanadium, 0.21 to 0.30 weight percent of oxygen, and up to 0.40% of weight percent of iron. The alloy may also have a minimum ultimate tensile strength of 130,000 psi, a minimum tensile yield strength of 120,000 psi, and a minimum ductility of 10% elongation. Also disclosed is a method for manufacturing components having the aforementioned alloy.

  • Patent number: 9194142
    Abstract: A modular wall system for use in trade shows includes an upstanding column having a surface, a panel having an end, and a connecting bracket for detachably connecting the end of the panel to the column. The connecting bracket includes male and female interengageable parts, where the female part is attached to the end of the panel and the male part is attached to the surface of the column. The female part includes a slot extending in a direction along the length of the surface of the column. The slot includes opposing outwardly inclined sides. The male part includes opposing sides corresponding in shape to the slot sides and received within the slot to connect the end of the panel and column.

  • Publication number: 20060090917
    Abstract: An enclosure installation assembly comprises a support base and a mounting pad adapted to be secured to the support base. The support base, having a lower portion slightly larger than its upper portion, is placed in a hole in the ground. Dirt is compacted around the support base to secure the support base in place. The mounting pad is then secured to the support base using a coupling structure that engages the support base and mounting pad so as to allow the mounting pad to move relative to the support base. Alternatively, a first portion of the mounting pad is fixedly attached to the support base. A second portion of the mounting pad engages the first portion so as to allow the second portion to move relative to the support base. Finally, an enclosure is installed on the mounting pad, with fasteners located inside the enclosure. The resulting enclosure is securely and easily installed, accessible for maintenance, and is tamper resistant.
