A furniture system is provided having a support to be mounted to an upright structure of a building, and a shelf that is assembled onto the support. The shelf has a load-bearing surface, a front side, and a rear side with a first connector. The support has an outer face that includes at least one second connector. The first and second connectors are configured to interconnect such that, in the assembled the furniture system, the shelf is supported by the support with the load bearing surface projecting horizontally away from the upright structure, the first and second connectors resist rotation of the shelf about the first and second connectors by a force acting downwardly through the load bearing surface, and the first and second connectors resist disconnection of the shelf from the support by force applied to the shelf in a direction that is normal to the support.

A floor element for forming a floor covering, wherein the floor element comprises a board having edges provided with coupling elements adapted to cooperate with coupling elements of an adjacent similar floor element in said floor covering wherein the coupling elements comprise at least one male part and at least one female part said male part being positioned along a first edge and protruding outwardly beyond an upper edge at said first edge, said female part being positioned along a second edge and extending inwardly beyond an upper edge at said second edge to thereby form a recess for at least partially receive the male part, wherein said recess comprises an inlet opening having a vertical breadth, with the characteristic that the ratio between the vertical breadth and the thickness of the board is more than 0.4.

A joint structure installed in the physical structure is provided. The joint structure includes a first latching member and a second latching member. The first latching member includes a first main body, a head portion extending from the first main body and a first convex portion extending from the first main body. The second latching member includes a second main body, a second convex portion extending from the second main body and a third convex portion extending from the second main body. When the first latching member and the second latching member are in an assembling status, the first convex portion slides between the second convex portion and the third convex portion.

A method and apparatus for profiling edges of panels, includes using rotating cutting tools. The rotating cutting tools include a first group of teeth with a first form and a second group of teeth with a second, different form.

A fastener unit and related method for securing a board to a support is provided. The fastener unit includes a spacer block, a grip element extending from the spacer block and configured to fit in and engage a groove of the board, and one or more board engagement elements extending from a portion of the spacer block. The board engagement elements can clamp the board, between an upper and/or lower surface of the board and a groove of the board, thereby securing the spacer block in a position adjacent the groove to establish a gap between the board and another board. Related methods of use also are provided.

Floor panels which are provided with a mechanical locking system including an extruded flexible tongue in a sidewardly open groove which during a vertical folding motion is bent horizontally. A tongue adapted for being received in a sidewardly open groove of a floor panel, wherein the tongue, which is an elongated extruded section, when received in the groove is bendable in a plane substantially parallel with a front face of the floor panel, such that the tongue is at least partially resiliently displaceable inside said sidewardly open groove in said plane during locking of the floor panel with another floor panel and wherein a vertical protrusion, serving as a friction connection between the tongue and the groove, is arranged at an upper or lower part of the tongue, wherein a total width of tongue varies in a longitudinal direction of the tongue.

A handheld misting device, having a fluid tank that can be pressurized to force the contained fluid under pressure through a fluid delivery system, includes a hand-operated pump for injecting air into the fluid tank to pressurize the fluid tank. The pump includes a pump handle located at the bottom of the tank at one end of a rod, and a piston at the other end of the rod. The pump handle rotates in order to lock, in a retracted position, against the tank; the form factor of the handle conforms to that of the tank, to define an unbroken outer surface of the device when the handle is locked in the retracted position. A pressure-relieving air channel extends through the piston, the rod, and the pump handle to emit air out of the pump and into the environment when the fluid tank is at a maximum pressure.

Key threaded articles and systems that include key threads having a female lock and male key on a two-dimensional plane and in which the female lock envelops the male key when fully engaged and has a shape that creates lateral resistance to separation from the male key when the female lock fully engages the male key.

A panel attachment structure for a wearable article manufacturing equipment includes: lower and upper panels vertically arranged while separated up-and-down; a first processing section and a first driving section respectively attached to a front face and a back face of the lower panel; a second processing section and a second driving section respectively attached to a front face and a back face of the upper panel; a base horizontally arranged under the lower panel; and a pair of pillars raised from the base, wherein, in the structure, the lower and upper panels are removably fixed to the pillars while being supported by the respective lower and upper parts of the pillars, and each pillar has a support section, provided between the upper and lower panels and supporting the load of the upper panel.
