Ceiling system
09739057 · 2017-08-22 · ·

A ceiling system in one embodiment includes a support grid including intersecting grid support members and grid openings formed between the grid support members. A vertical baffle is positioned in a grid opening and is attached to the support grid. The baffle includes opposing front and rear faces extending between opposing lateral sides of the baffle. First and second mounting grooves formed in the baffle engage and support the baffle from the grid. In one embodiment, one of the mounting grooves is disposed in each lateral side to support the baffle from opposite sides. The baffle may further include a third mounting groove formed in the rear face which engages the support grid to help align and squarely register the baffle with respect to the grid for clean linear visuals. In one embodiment, the grid support members may have a standard T-shaped cross section.

Metal ceiling panel system with retaining clips and method
09771717 · 2017-09-26 ·

A ceiling system for under-deck installation includes ceiling panels and retaining clips. Each ceiling panel has a first interlocking bracket and an oppositely spaced second interlocking bracket formed along the sides of the ceiling panel. The ceiling system is installed by installing a number of retaining clips along the length of the second interlocking bracket of a panel and then inserting the first interlocking bracket of the next panel in the second interlocking bracket of the first panel so that the retaining clips secure an edge of the first interlocking bracket of the next panel. Subsequent ceiling panels are connected in this manner to form the ceiling panel system.

System for supporting non-structural building components
11396754 · 2022-07-26 · ·

A system for supporting a non-structural building component beneath a soffit of a building. The system has a plurality of suspension assemblies that each have a first elongate non-rigid member, and at least one second elongate non-rigid member. The first elongate non-rigid member is secured at an upper end to a structural portion of the building at a first location, and at a lower end to one of: the non-structural building component, or a support member to which the non-structural building component is secured. The second elongate non-rigid member that is secured at a lower end to one of: the non-structural building component, or the support member to which the non-structural building component is secured, and at an upper end to a structural portion of the building at a second location. The first elongate non-rigid member is oriented substantially vertically. The second location is horizontally spaced from the first location, such that the second elongate non-rigid member is inclined to vertical. When the building is in a stable condition, the tensile force in the first elongate non-rigid member is greater than the vertical component of the tensile force in the second elongate non-rigid member.
