  • Patent number: 4750586
    Abstract: A multi-tubular acoustic absorber panel system suited particularly for use in open office environments or workspaces with unwanted echoes, excessive noise, or the need for enhanced acoustic privacy. The basic components of the system are a series of sound absorbent tubular members and a structure for holding the members in an array, creating a baffle which can be attached to wall or ceiling surfaces or, in the preferred embodiment, to a manufactured office partition. When installed, the system creates a lightweight, adaptable, highly absorbent enclosure, capable of significant reduction in unwanted noise and increase in acoustic privacy.

  • Patent number: 4705484
    Abstract: A power cord wire and cable container in the form of a cannister including a protective cover, an internal cylinder around which power cords, cables, or any wiring can be neatly and compactly wound, separated by adjustable notched rings capable of holding cords in place and a multiplicity of power receptacles fed from a single outside source. The device can be used with virtually any appliances and serves to shorten and efficiently organize the connection and power requirements of a variety of appliances, to minimize exposed lengths of connecting wires or power cords, especially when numerous appliances are used in combination and simultaneously, as in data processing workstations or with household music reproduction systems.

  • Patent number: 4682670
    Abstract: A portable acoustic absorber system which can be used in particular in open office environments or in large spaces with unwanted echoes or excessive noise. The device operates by supporting and arraying panels of efficient sound absorbing materials in a helical configuration in which a majority of the surface area of those panels is exposed. During shipping, or when the device is not in use, it can be reconfigured into a closed position, which occupies much less space.
