The invention relates to a modular system (10) for structuring or shaping spaces, surfaces, or the like, comprising a component assembly, which comprises at least two modular elements (12) and at least one connecting element (14, 15, 16), said modular element being designed as a box-shaped body, whose base has at least three corners, each corner forming a connecting structure for connecting the modular element to a connecting element, said connecting structure being designed as an arc-shaped contour of the corner together with a void adjacent to the contour, said connecting element forming a pin for each of the connecting structures to be connected, said pin being designed congruent with the void and in such a manner that the pin can be interlockingly inserted into the void, said connecting element forming a positioning device for positioning the connecting element on the modular element, said positioning device comprising an axis, said axis being designed congruent with the contour and in such a manner that the axis can be arranged on the contour.

A cabinet (1) comprising: a housing (10); two or more storage units (30, 50), each accommodated within the housing (10) and displaceable between a closed position in which a majority of the storage unit (30, 50) is disposed within the housing (10) and an open position in which the storage unit (30, 50) projects from the housing (10) to an extent greater than in said closed position; and a blocking mechanism (70) comprising two or more blocking members (71b, 71c), each associated with its corresponding storage unit (30, 50) and configured for selectively arresting said corresponding storage unit (30, 50) in its closed position; the blocking mechanism (70) being displaceable between an unblocked state in which each one of the storage units (30, 50) is free to be displaced from its closed position to its open position and a blocked state in which at least one and no more than all but one of the storage units (30, 50) are arrested in their closed position by their corresponding blocking members (71b, 71c). The association between the blocking mechanism (70) and the storage units (30, 50) is such that, when said blocking mechanism (70) is in its unblocked position, displacement of one of said storage units (30, 50) from its closed position to its open position induces displacement of the blocking mechanism (70) from its unblocked state to its blocked state.

The invention provides a modular storage system (1), comprising a plurality of box-shaped structural units(2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14), one or more of which are storage units used for storage, and each structural unit having front and back faces and left, right, top and bottom sides, wherein: the box-shaped structural units (2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14) are laterally attachable to each other side-by-side through attachment points (30,31,32,33,74,79,97,99) on the left and right sides, thereby to construct a joined structure of at least two of the structural units; and one or more of the box-shaped structural units are reversible structural units, in which the corresponding attachment points are positioned and shaped so that the reversible structural unit is attachable in the lateral side-by-side attachment so that the corresponding front faces of adjacent joined structural units are oriented either in one direction or in opposite directions.

A modular tile adapted for mounting onto a flat surface, comprising an edge connector; an edge receiver configured to accommodate the connector; and a plurality of flat units, wherein each unit comprises a central opening with two dimensions with a first dimension smaller than a second dimension. The modular tiles are connected by releasably securing an edge connector of a first modular tile to an edge receiver of a second modular tile.

A modular container comprising a housing, a contained volume defined within the housing, and a door panel providing access to the contained volume in an open position and preventing access to the contained volume in a closed position. One or more interengagement features can be provided with the container such that a plurality of containers can be stacked atop each other to define a plurality of stacked containers. In some example embodiments, the container comprises at least one fan and one or more lights.

A modular furniture system includes a plurality of panel elements having opposing first and second major faces, a perimeter wall defining a minor face therebetween, and at least a boss aperture which passes through the first and second major faces. A panel connector has a bridging element and at least two bosses in spaced apart relationship on the bridging element, each boss being a complementary fit in the boss aperture of a respective panel element, a first fastener recess in a distal free end of each boss, and a second fastener recess opposing the first fastener recess and adjacent to a proximal end of each boss. An oversized fastener associated with each boss has a panel-retaining head and a tail which is interengagable with the panel-retaining head.
