POCKET AND ADJUSTABLE TRIM PIECE FOR A SUSPENDED CEILING SYSTEM
An adjustable trim system for a suspended ceiling. The system has a perimeter pocket surround the suspended ceiling. The pocket has at least one hook on its exterior surface that are adapted to engage a related hook on a trim piece. The trim piece also, optionally, includes a stabilizer bar adapted to accept and hold a gasket or spacer between the bar and the bottom edge of the pocket hooks to provide additional rigidity. To assist in holding the gasket the top of the stabilizer bar and the bottom of the lowest bottom hook may be textured.
Assemblies for suspending ceiling panels
An assembly for suspending ceiling panels, having a frame and suspension members for suspending the frame from a structure, the frame having intersection members and support members extending therebetween, each support member being for supporting a respective side of the ceiling panel, and wherein the ends of the support members are configured to engage with engageable portions provided circumferentially about each of the intersection members.
Ceiling system
Described herein is a ceiling system in one embodiment includes a grid support member, ceiling panel, and grid hanger configured to support the grid support member in a suspended manner from an overhead structural support. The grid hanger includes a mounting bracket configured for attachment to the structural support and a hanger member. The hanger member is adjustable in a plurality of selectable mounting positions relative to the mounting bracket, thereby allowing the mounted height of the grid support member to be adjusted in the field. In some embodiment, the hanger member is further angularly adjustable relative to the mounting bracket to avoid installation obstacles. Locking elements are provided to secure the hanger member in the selected mounting position. In one embodiment, the grid support member may have a T-shaped cross section.

Suspension ceiling support clip
A suspension ceiling support clip including a body, a snap-fit connector disposed on the body, and a locking member disposed on the body. The snap-fit connector is configured to receive a first beam of a suspension ceiling that extends in a first direction. The locking member is configured to receive a second beam of the suspension ceiling that extends in a second direction, where the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.
SUSPENDED CEILING PANEL HOLDING CLIP
A hold down clip for retaining one or more ceiling panels on lower flanges of a suspended ceiling tee and allowing removal of the ceiling panels from below after installation. The hold down clip includes at least one outward curved section with a crest between an upper end and a lower end. The clip elastically deforms to produce reactive spring forces when a ceiling panel engages a contact point below the crest of the outward curved section. The clip also includes at least one continuously formed latching section, which may extend from the upper end, lower end, or a transition point below the crest of the outward curved section. The latching section engages the grid tee to generate the spring force. Alternatively, the clip includes a fastener secured to the at least one outward curved section. The fastener is configured for threaded attachment to a receptacle of the grid tee.
CEILING SYSTEM AND METHOD OF INSTALLATION
A ceiling system is provided for use in a building space. The ceiling system has an open cell grid structure and is attached to a support structure of the building via hanging hardware. The open cell grid structure is constructed of a plurality of bottom panels attached to the hanging hardware, a plurality of middle panels attached to the plurality of bottom panels, and a plurality of top panels attached to the plurality of middle panels. The bottom, middle, and top panels are arranged in a plurality of rows and arranged to ensure that the plurality of panels form an interconnected system capable of being extended to any size desired by a user.
MEANS OF MOUNTING THE MAIN CARRIER OF THE CEILING LIGHT STEEL STRUCTURE
Disclosed is a main carrier mounting mechanism having a ceiling lightweight steel structure, which includes: an upper horizontal portion mounted on a rod hanger; having an upper end integrally coupled to one end of the upper horizontal portion and a lower end extending downward; a lower panel having one end integrally coupled to the lower end of the main standing portion and having an opposite end extending parallel to the upper horizontal portion; and a lower standing portion having a lower end integrally coupled to the opposite end of the lower panel, and an upper end extending toward an opposite end of the upper horizontal portion, and further includes a main carrier separation prevention fastener having one end integrally coupled to the upper end of the lower standing portion and an opposite end extending toward the opposite end of the upper horizontal portion and extending toward the main standing portion.

Overhead storage system
An overhead storage system is disclosed. The storage system includes an overhead frame that supports a ceiling for a room, at least one storage box, and a roof or floor for a second room above the first. Attached to the frame is at least one raise/lower mechanism which raises and lowers a storage box. The storage box(es) fit within the frame when raised and are accessible when lowered. Each storage box has a bottom wall that includes a ceiling surface for the room and a structure with at least one storage surface. The raise lower mechanism(s) is a winch driven pulley system that winds up and lets out at least one line.
