The present disclosure includes a retrofitted door brake cam. The retrofitted door brake cam may, in various embodiments, comprise a hub comprising a cylindrical central axle, a plurality of projections extending radially away from an outer circumference of the central axle, and/or a cam comprising a plurality of pins that hold the projections away from a channel wall of a brake housing. The pins may be configured to break away from the cam to release the projections into contact with the channel wall, and the pins may be fitted with a cover, such that the pins are capable of withstanding abrasion and wear. The cover may comprise a cylinder having an axially running aperture, and/or a beveled edge that shaves a layer of the outer surface from one of the plurality of pins as it is fitted over the pin.

RETRACTABLE PANEL SYSTEM
20210100377 · 2021-04-08 ·

A system comprises a retractable panel structure, for example a screen/wall/divider/partition that can be rolled up and that can be unrolled. The panel structure comprises a back face (47) and a front face (48) that are spaced-apart from each other. The front face (48) is at least partly formed of an array of strips (23, 40) that are separate from each other and that move apart to allow the panel structure to be rolled up and wherein the back face (47) forms hinges that connect the strips (23, 40) together and that are capable of flexing to allow the said strips (23, 40) to move apart when the sheet is rolled up.

System for reversibly dividing a space

A system for reversibly dividing a space is disclosed. A first panel consists of a first vertical member and a first horizontal member attached perpendicular to a bottom end of the first vertical member and extends away from the first vertical member towards a second panel. The second panel consists of a second vertical member and a second horizontal member attached perpendicular to a top end of the second vertical member and extends away from the second vertical member towards the first panel. The first and second panel can be stored in an overhead position. The space is reversibly divided when the first panel and the second panel are lowered. The first panel is lowered such that the first panel forms a top portion of a wall. The second panel is lowered until the second horizontal member rests on the first horizontal member, forming a bottom portion of the wall.

Gym locker attached privacy cover
10975615 · 2021-04-13 ·

The gym locker attached privacy cover creates a privacy area behind an arched privacy screen where a user may change clothing without being seen. The gym locker attached privacy cover attaches to gym lockers at a first support column and a second support column. An opaque screen stored without the support columns is deployed from around spindles within each support column and wires in the opaque screen cause the opaque screen to form an arch that projects away from the lockers. The user may stand within the space defined between the lockers and the arch. The first support column and the second support column may each be held in place by a set of magnets. In some embodiments, the privacy screen may be retracted by a spring-loaded ratchet and pawl arrangement or by a manually operated knob attached to the spindle.
