An interior panel to be suspended and supported movably along a railway laid on a ceiling portion of a building, including: an upper panel member; a lower panel member disposed below the upper panel member; and a frame including at least an upper frame to be attached movably along the railway and a lower frame configured to hold a lower edge portion of the upper panel member and to hold an upper edge portion of the lower panel member.

At least one panel including a trolley is fed to a first drive mechanism of a plurality of drive mechanisms adjacent a main track configured to engage the trolley of the at least one panel. The first drive mechanism is initiated to drive the at least one panel to a second drive mechanism of the plurality of drive mechanisms to move the at least one panel farther along the main track.

Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, computer system, and computer program product for a processor-implemented method for a movable wall process, the method including collecting a set of rules governing a size of a main room and a size of one or more sub-rooms comprising the main room, determining a starting position of a movable wall, where the movable wall separates the one or more sub-rooms, and where the starting position is determined by the set of rules, determining a location of one or more people, determining a required wall movement for the movable wall, wherein the required wall movement is determined by the set of rules and the location of one or more people, and moving the movable wall to a new position, based on the starting position and the required wall movement.

A movable partition system that can include branched overhead rails where movable panels, such as glass doors, wall panels, are guided along the branched overhead rails by path guides positioned with the overhead rails. The guide paths are shaped and aligned within the overhead rails to provide a smooth transition at the junction between overhead rails. The combination is suitable for use with both right-angle and oblique angle branched overhead rails.

The present disclosure provides apparatuses, methods and systems operable to provide transformable living spaces. The system includes a chassis and a configurable unit movably coupled to the chassis for at least one of translation and rotation with respect to the chassis. The system also includes at least one drivetrain assembly movably coupling the configurable unit to the chassis. The system includes at least one actuator coupled to the configurable unit by the at least one drivetrain assembly. The system also includes at least one robotic controller communicatively coupled to the at least one actuator.

A roll-up wall system including a frame having a longitudinal axis, a first roller disposed in the frame, a second roller disposed in the frame, and a tube disposed in the frame. A screen may be connected to the tube. The screen may be supported by the first roller and the second roller. Further, the screen may be movable between a first configuration and a second configuration. In the first configuration, the screen is rolled around the tube which is spaced a first distance from the first roller. In the second configuration, the screen forms a barrier adjacent the frame, and the tube is spaced a second distance from the first roller. The second distance may be less than the first distance. Also, the roll-up wall system may be an acoustic barrier which achieves a Sound Transmission Class rating ranging from approximately 31 STC to approximately 53 STC.

A movable partition system that can include branched overhead rails where movable panels, such as glass doors, wall panels, are guided along the branched overhead rails by path guides positioned with the overhead rails. The guide paths are shaped and aligned within the overhead rails to provide a smooth transition at the junction between overhead rails. The combination is suitable for use with both right-angle and oblique angle branched overhead rails.

An operable wall assembly having a prime mover for deploying and stowing or stacking the wall panels. The operable wall assembly includes a control system for controlling operation of the prime mover and sensors for determining when the panels are fully deployed and fully stacked. The wall panel is installed by applying a three-point camber for spans in the range of 33-40 feet.

A containment system may include four different widths of panel assemblies, at least four different types of corner assemblies, various types of door assemblies, multiple types of three-way corners or T intersections, multiple types of exhaust panel assemblies, multiple types of wall seal assemblies, and other components that form a modular system capable of adapting to various configurations using a minimal number of fasteners, brackets, and/or clamps. Each panel assembly includes a lower assembly, an upper assembly slideably attached to the lower assembly, at least one adjustment mechanism that interfaces with both the lower assembly and the upper assembly, and a sealing member extending between the upper assembly and the lower assembly.

An architectural covering may include an adjustment member configured and positioned to adjust friction affecting movement of the covering. The adjustment member may be manipulated to increase friction in the architectural covering so a covering member (e.g., a panel) of the architectural covering does not move as freely as it would without the increased friction, yet the covering member nonetheless remains simple to operate. The additional friction may be effective to inhibit the covering member from moving across an associated architectural feature on its own without a user's input.
