A smart sanitary system and a control method thereof are provided. A fixed display, a movable display, a shower unit and a toilet unit are provided. Motion of the movable display is controlled relative to the fixed display. The operation of the shower unit or the toilet unit is controlled according to the position of the movable display. Accordingly, a diversified space is provided, and the operation of sanitary equipment is triggered with the variation of the space.

A system for eliminating gaps between a flexible sheet and an adjacent surface. A flexible sheet has a body, an upper edge, a lower edge, and a side edge. The flexible sheet is movable between retracted and deployed configurations. A knuckle member has first and second pivotable portions, the first portion is coupled to the lower edge of the flexible sheet and the second portion has a T-shaped first end coupled to a flap on the side edge of the flexible sheet. When the flexible sheet is retracted the second portion of the knuckle is angled with respect to the first portion. When the flexible sheet is deployed the second portion of the knuckle is coaxial with the first portion and the T-shaped first end moves the flap outward to engage the adjacent surface.

A floating connection fastening system employs a semi-flexible floating bushing having a sleeve that may have an axial slot which captures a fastener having a head, an unthreaded shank portion and a threaded portion. The sleeve may have an outer primary surface and a plurality of protuberances that project outward from the outer primary surface. An offset cap mounts to the bushing/fastener assembly and receives a driver bit. The offset cap defines an offset clearance for installation of the fastener and bushing. The floating connection is installed by driving the fastener through a non-load bearing member so as to form a bore and threadably engage a load bearing member. The floating bushing has a flange which engages the surface of the non-load bearing member, and the sleeve is entirely received in the formed bore.

A wall panel module comprising a first wall panel and one or more dual gasket assembly, the dual gasket assembly being suitable for sealing an abutment joint between edge faces of two wall panels and comprising a support coupling, a compressible interior gasket, and a compressible weather gasket, the support coupling comprising a base having a top surface having an interior gasket support and an exterior gasket support on opposing ends of the support coupling, the compressible interior gasket attached to the interior gasket support and the compressible outer weather gasket attached to the exterior gasket support, the compressible interior gasket and the compressible outer weather gasket mounted on the support coupling with the lengths of the compressible interior gasket and the compressible outer weather gasket parallel to one another and also being parallel to the dual gasket assembly length, the bottom surface of the support coupling base further having an attachment area with the dual gasket assembly attached to the first edge face of the first wall panel via said attachment area.

A paneled wall having sealed abutment joints, the wall comprising a first wall panel, a dual gasket assembly, a second wall panel, and a sealed abutment joint between the first wall panel and the second wall panel, wherein the dual gasket assembly comprises a compressible interior gasket, a support coupling, and a compressible outer weather gasket, and wherein the dual gasket assembly is attached to a first edge face of the first wall panel by the support coupling, and wherein both the compressible interior gasket and the compressible outer weather gasket of the dual gasket assembly are in contact with and compressed between both the first edge face of the first wall panel and a first edge face of the second wall panel to seal the abutment joint between said edge faces.

Process for making a paneled wall comprising a first wall panel module comprising a first wall panel and a dual gasket assembly, a second wall panel, and a sealed abutment joint between the first wall panel and the second wall panel, wherein the dual gasket assembly comprises a compressible interior gasket, a support coupling, and a compressible weather gasket, the process including the steps of attaching the dual gasket assembly to an edge face of the first wall panel to form a first wall panel module, aligning the second wall panel relative to the first wall panel module, and compressing the gaskets of the dual gasket assembly between edge face of the first wall panel and the edge face of the second wall panel to seal the abutment joint.

The present application is directed toward fire-rated wall construction components and wall systems for use in building construction. Embodiments can include tracks for holding studs which incorporate various geometries capable of receiving fire-retardant material, flat straps for use between tracks and fluted wall components, fire sponges for use in fluted wall components, and tracks with protruding grooves or other structures which prevent unwanted air movement between a wallboard component and the track.

A method for preventing collisions in a physical environment for multiple players playing in a virtual reality environment comprises creating a plurality of virtual reality areas with respect to a physical environment. Each of the plurality of players are established as an active player in one of the plurality of virtual reality areas. Each of the plurality of players have an active player avatar mapped into a single virtual reality area of the plurality of virtual reality areas. Each of the plurality of players have a non-active player avatar mapped into each of the plurality of virtual reality areas where the user does not have an active player avatar. The active player avatars and the non-active player avatars are displayed in each of the plurality of virtual reality areas. A single avatar is present in each of the plurality of virtual reality areas for each of the plurality of players.
