Abstract: A decorative structure is provided that is suspended within a space and includes a flexible panel maintained in a flexed configuration. The decorative structure includes a cable that supports the flexible panel and that is connected to a biasing member. The biasing member cooperates with a portion of the flexible panel to maintain the panel in a flexed configuration. A method of configuring a decorative structure with a flexed panel is also provided.

Abstract: A panel structure including a flexible panel, at least one edge strip and mounting hardware is provided. Also provided is a method of configuring the panel structure. The edge strip has at least one mounting member receiving area provided thereon. The mounting member receiving area is dimensioned to receive the mounting hardware therein. The mounting hardware cooperates with the edge strip to suspend and mount the flexible panel. When installed, the panel structure provides a canopy-like visual element to a space in which it is suspended or mounted. The panel structure may be suspended or mounted in various configurations having different degrees of flex or curvature. The panel structure can be installed easily and reconfigured easily to suit the user.

Abstract: An apparatus and system to secure a panel to suspended ceiling system which includes a plurality of suspension elements. The apparatus is a border structure that enables attachment of the panel to the suspension element. The border structure includes a plurality of horizontal surface members and a plurality of vertical sections, with a first horizontal surface member being inserted into a hanger secured to the suspension element, and with a second horizontal surface member supporting an end of a panel. At least one vertical section joins the plurality of horizontal surface members. A spring hold down clip secures the panel from unintended displacement during a seismic event.

Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus and method for providing support for a suspended ceiling system and movable lighting for a room. The apparatus essentially comprises a ceiling truss having a main beam and at least one standoff connected to and projecting laterally from the main beam. A truss cable is anchored at the ends of the beam and extends over the standoff to form a cable truss configuration for providing support to the beam. The truss cable can be electrified, wherein a lighting fixture may be attached to adjacent cables for illuminating a room below.

Abstract: The apparatus is a transition member to cover the gap between ceilings at different levels which are also offset horizontally. A vertical section is supported at the edge of the lower ceiling and an attached angular section rises from the lower edge at a slope to reach and contact the upper ceiling. The general shape approximates a trough with one vertical and one sloped side. The lower edge of the vertical section and the upper edge of the angular section can include flanges and attached coupling channels which interlock with drywall adapters to facilitate attachment to drywall ceilings.

Abstract: A suspended ceiling system having a trim strip and ceiling runners. A trim connector fastens the trim strip to the ceiling runners. The trim connector being a two part structure is fastened to the trim strip by a releasable fastening action. One of the two parts of the trim connector is also fastened to the ceiling runner.
