Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a reconfigurable shelf assembly. The reconfigurable shelf assembly can include a base frame and a first shelving component configured to support objects according to a first configuration. The first shelving component can be detachably coupled to the base frame to facilitate removal and replacement of the first shelving component. A second shelving component can used to reconfigure the shelf assembly to support objects according to a second configuration. The shelf assembly can include a pair of electrically conductive support arms extending from the base frame to selectively mount the base frame to a wall assembly. The wall assembly can provide electrical power to the electrically conductive arms. The circuitry can include a light source and a pair of conductive mounting members. The conductive mounting members can selectively engage the electrically conductive arms to energize the light source.

A support is configured to be attached to and supported by a surface and to a channel running from the first end to the opposing second end of the support. The support carries a first electrical connector in a first end of the channel and a second electrical connector, wired to the first, in the opposing, second end of the channel. The first electrical connector is in electrical connection with the second electrical connector via at least one electrical conductor. An electrical current applied to the first electrical connector is conveyed by that electrical conductor to the second electrical connector. Wiring is directed through holed in the support to access points in the outer surface of the support where the user may access electrical current for operating appliances, charging batteries, and passing digital information. The supports may be decorative molding such as baseboards, crown molding, and chair rails.

A temporary, non-fixed partitioning system includes a common assembly bracket that can be readily assembled with a wall panel formed of various standard dimensioned building supplies. The wall panels may include a standard door slab, a standard window sash, standard dimensional lumber, a peg board, a chalk board, a whiteboard, a corrugated cardboard panel, a foam board, a gator board, a fiberglass panel, a cork panel, a plastic panel, an upholstered panel, a wood panel, and an acrylic-based or silica-based glass panel, and may also be suitable for receiving custom or desired printing of designs, indicia or other nomenclature. The partitioning system could be provided in a kit form with a plurality of common assembly brackets and wall panels, which are reconfigurable for a variety of uses such as co-working space, trade show booths, or lobby displays.

Inventory locations such as shelves in a materials handling facility may be used to store items of various shapes and sizes. Described is a modular item stowage system with hardware that incorporates several components that may be readily reconfigured to accommodate changes in store layout, product presentation, and so forth. The components may include one or more of an instrumented auto-facing unit, divider, spacer, and so forth. The hardware may also support onboard electronics such as sensors to acquire sensor data and computing devices to process the sensor data.

A universal surface flush junction box which provides an improved way to transition from in-wall wiring to surface (out of wall) wiring in a building, which requires no additional mounting brackets or conduit bends, which thereby allows for a one trip complete rough-in installation and greatly reduces the amount of sealant required for smoke, fire and acoustical seal.

Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a merchandise display system having a modular wall assembly configured to provide electrical power to one or more shelf assemblies. The wall assembly can include a vertically oriented back panel, a cross bar horizontally and detachably mounted to the back panel, a pair of vertical uprights and a top cap. The pair of vertical uprights can be detachably mounted to the cross bar with each of the vertical uprights having an electrically non-conductive portion and an electrically conductive portion. The electrically conductive portion can be electrically isolated from the cross bar by the electrically non-conductive portion. The top cap can be disposed along an upper edge of the back panel and in electrical contact with electrically conductive portion of each of the vertical uprights.

An installation block for dry walls is disclosed. The installation block includes at least one through-hole for passing through a cable, pipe, or the like. The installation block also includes two installation block parts, which are joined together and have a separating plane T, which intersects with the at least one through-hole. Further, a dry wall and a method for installing an installation block are disclosed.

A movable wall panel system induces a plurality of movable wall panels. A first electrical connector of one panel is automatically coupled to a second electrical connector of an adjacent panel as the panels are moved from a folded storage position to an extended use position to electrically couple the adjacent panels together automatically. At least one of the plurality of panels has an electrical receptacle coupled to its associated first and second electrical connectors to provide an electrical power outlet.

A curtain wall has a plurality of hollow, extruded vertical and horizontal members. The members have a pair of spaced retainer walls which engage a shear block with a pair of tabs that twist locks onto the retainer walls before fastening the block to the member. A second member slips over the block and is fastened by screws. The abutment of the tabs limits rotation of the block and attached member, providing support for a glazing panel attached to the members. The members have longitudinal recesses accommodating wiring that may be covered with a cover. A bracket interacting with the retainer walls like a shear block may also be used.
