Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein describe an alignment device for providing mechanical alignment between multiple semi-rigid fibrous bodies. The alignment device includes a first semi-rigid fibrous body comprising an alignment tab attached to the first semi-rigid fibrous body through a hinge; and a second semi-rigid fibrous body comprising a mating cavity cut into the second semi-rigid fibrous body, where the alignment tab is located on the first semi-rigid fibrous body and the mating cavity is located on the second semi-rigid fibrous body such that mating the alignment tab with the mating cavity aligns the first semi-rigid fibrous body with the second semi-rigid fibrous body.

Abstract: A lighting arrangement is assembled from a plurality of modular light fixtures that are sequentially aligned along a longitudinal alignment axis. Each modular light fixture includes an exterior cover that is disposed about and define an interior. The exterior covers of a first modular light fixture and an adjoining second modular light fixture are co-planar to appear as a homogenous exterior surface. To facilitate moving the first and modular light fixtures together, a lanyard is extended from a retractor located in the interior of the first modular light fixture and engages a catch located in the interior of the second modular light fixture. The retractor applies a tension force to the lanyard drawing the modular light fixtures together.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein describe a semi-rigid fibrous structure. The semi-rigid fibrous structure contains a first semi-rigid fibrous body comprising a first living hinge; a second semi-rigid fibrous body comprising a second living hinge; and a rotatable joint formed at a bond between the first semi-rigid fibrous body and the second semi-rigid fibrous body proximate the first living hinge and the second living hinge.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein describe a semi-rigid fibrous body. The semi-rigid fibrous body includes a first body portion; a second body portion; a partial depth incision in the semi-rigid fibrous body between the first body portion and the second body portion; a third body portion; and two “V” shaped reliefs cut into the semi-rigid fibrous body between the second body portion and the third body portions, where the partial depth incision and the two “V” shaped reliefs are living hinges formed of the semi-rigid fibrous body.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein describe a suspension system. The suspension system includes a substrate comprising a horizontal portion; a rail disposed on a top face of the horizontal portion of the substrate; one or more attachment points attaching the substrate to the rail; and a variable suspension point slidably attached to the rail, where a window of movement of the variable suspension point is provided along the rail and between the one or more attachment points.
