A mounting strip includes a strip element and a plurality of engagement elements. Each engagement element includes: an anchor portion configured for anchoring the respective engagement element to the strip element; and an engagement portion including a through-opening. At least the anchor portion is provided as an injection molded article, directly molded onto the strip element.

An end cap assembly includes a base member, a back member, and a first and second support members coupled to the back member. The first support member is disposed at one side of the back member and the second support member is disposed at an opposite side. A plurality of extension members is removably coupled to the first and second support members. The assembly also includes a first spacer member, a second spacer member, and a cross member coupled at one end to the first or second spacer member. An intermediate member is coupled to the cross member at an end opposite either the first or second spacer member. The assembly includes a support rod coupled at one end to the intermediate member and at an opposite end to the first or second spacer member. A plurality of couplers is coupled to the support rod.

A barrier assembly for blocking a potentially debris-carrying airflow includes an elongated, flexible barrier sheet extending from a ceiling to a floor and a plurality of hanger structures engaging an upper edge of the sheet in longitudinally spaced relation therealong. Each hanger structure includes a connector tab adapted for engagement with a suspension member and a pair of diverging adhesive panels for adhesive engagement with the sheet. The suspension members engage ceiling members to support the sheet from the ceiling.

The structures described herein use an actuating system that can selectively switch between a lower and a raise mode of operation by rotating a rod assembly in two different directions, and use a downward displacement of a pull member to lower and raise the window shade depending on its switching state. The actuating systems are simple to operate, allow convenient adjustment of the window shade, and are safe as the pull member has a limited length of extension.

Disclosed is an end cap or connector for a wheel system, the end cap or connector has a cylindrical portion for engagement with one of an extension or a quick release system, the cylindrical portion further including a catch for attachment to the extension; and a cap, extending from said cylindrical portion, said cap having a connector for attaching to a wheel carriage or another extension. Also disclosed is a method which includes the end cap and inserting the end cap into an extension such as a hollow tube or rod; and releasably attaching the end cap to a wheel system.

A curtain support assembly enables quick, one-handed installation and removal of a panel, such as a shower curtain, from a shower rod. The assembly includes a panel, a first mounting bracket, and a second mounting bracket. The first and second mounting brackets serve to join the panel to a rod. The configuration of the mounting brackets allows the panel to be pulled from, or attached to, the rod in a singular directional motion. Each mounting bracket has a gap that extends from a central opening to a corner of the mounting bracket. When the panel, and thus, the first and second mounting brackets, are folded in a coplanar disposition, the first and second gaps mirror each other. This gap orientation enables a singular directional manipulation of the panel for attachment and detachment to the rod. Additional pairs of mounting brackets extend across the panel as additional mounting points.

A display panel system is provided and includes a plurality of planar polygonal display panels, each display panel removably connectible along at least one edge to an edge of an adjacent display panel with connectible zipper assemblies. Each display panel system may be composed of uniform material or of various materials. The display panel system may be draped as desired by use of suspension mechanisms and rigging lines.

Room dividers are provided having an edge at least four feet from a room floor and at least twenty inches from a ceiling, an open or perforated space above and adjacent the edge along at least a majority portion of the room divider, and a moveable shield configured such that fluid from one side of the room divider is substantially blocked from passing through the open/perforated space when the shield is aligned with the space. Curtains are provided which include fastener/s arranged along a screen and strut/s coupled to the fastener/s, wherein the screen extends at least 3 inches above the fastener/s and the strut/s extend at least 24 inches below the fastener/s. Other curtains include struts extending along less than an entire length of the screen but at least between a point approximately level with at least one of the fastener/s to at least 24 inches below the fastener/s.
