Modular thermal isolation barrier for data processing equipment structure
A modular thermal isolation barrier for use in sealing gaps in a data processing equipment structure includes an extruded edge seal and a panel. The extruded edge seal has a seal portion and a base portion with one or more channels. An edge of the panel is disposed within one of the one or more channels of the base portion of the edge seal such that the edge seal is seated against the edge of the panel with the seal portion in position to abut, and establish a seal with, an adjacent structure.
Fastening Means
Fastening means, a preferred embodiment of which is shown in FIG. 2, hasajoist 1 and a locking member 5. The joist 1 has a channel and locking extensions and the locking member 5 has a base 6 and an upstand 7. The base 6 has rounded corners 10. The fastening means is formed such that when it is in use the locking member 5 can be slid into the channel and rotated therein to assume a locking position, such rotation made possible by the rounded corners 10 which, when in use, serve to prevent a rotational impasse between the joist 1 and the locking member 5. The fastening means is formed such that when the locking member is in the locking position it is in a tight fit within the channel and cannot pull out of the channel by reason of obstruction by the locking extensions.
Bracket assembly configured to support grid panel relative to orchestra pit fillers or stage extensions
This disclosure relates to a bracket assembly configured to support a grid panel relative to an orchestra pit filler or a stage extension. Among other benefits, the bracket assembly provides a robust and easily-installed connection point for a grid panel. Further, the bracket assembly supports the grid panel beneath the deck panels of the orchestra pit filler, thereby improving aesthetics of the orchestra pit filler and the stage overall.
MODULAR FURNITURE SYSTEM
A modular framework having a plurality of elongate structural members interconnected by brackets is provided. Each of the brackets includes at least one tubular socket to receive a structural member, and an array of holes is provided on a face of the socket to permit connection of an attachment to the bracket to support ancillary components.
Dovetail decking system with a full top flange sidelap and method of securing
Structural dovetail decking panel systems that utilize dovetail decking panels with a proximal edge having a proximal arm extending outwardly away from the dovetail decking panel, and a distal edge having a distal arm extending inwardly towards the dovetail decking panel. When adjacent dovetail decking panels are joined, the proximal edge having the proximal arm of a panel is placed over the distal end having the distal arm of the adjacent panel to create a dovetail sidelap. The proximal arm and/or the distal arm aid in restricting movement of the proximal edge and the distal edge of adjacent panels in order control the dimensions of a sidelap cavity and opening in the dovetail sidelap, which improves the strength of the dovetail decking panel systems, allows for the reduction of the thickness of the panels or number of couplings used, and/or allows for anchors to be utilized within the sidelap cavity.
ROLLABLE FRAMEWORK
Disclosed is a rollable framework based on the RF (Reciprocal Frame) system, which can be used as post-disaster emergency structures, fair stands, industrial tents, or roof shells to meet the shelter needs of architecture, military, non-governmental organizations, and can be used as a vault by opening the closed rollable form.
