  • Publication number: 20220258447
    Abstract: A flexible article is provided having a core formed from a plurality of laminar panels that are inter-connected to provide an expandable structure upon movement of the panels away from each other. Opposite ends of the core terminate, in a pair of end panels whereby the end panels may be moved apart to expand the expandable structure. Each of the panels are made from wood material. The panels, for example, include two wood sheets with longitudinally oriented grains and a flexible backing sheet that is sandwiched and adhered between the two wood sheets.

  • Patent number: 11035547
    Abstract: Light fixtures often have bright spots caused by the light sources that can be unpleasant or uncomfortable to look at. A light device is provided that diffuses the light, which includes an internal cavity defined in the body of a flexible shroud extending transversely from an opening defined in a first end frame to an opening defined in a second end frame of the shroud. The first and the second end frames are removably connectable to each other to form a circular configuration of the flexible shroud. The internal cavity also extends in the circular configuration. A light board is attached to one of the end frames and at least partially covers the opening of the given end frame. In the circular configuration, the light board is sandwiched between the first and the second end frames.
