Gym locker attached privacy cover
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.
BOOK ENCLOSURE FOR THE STORAGE, TRANSPORT AND DISPLAY OF DECORATIVE PINS
An enclosure for storage, transport, and display of pins for trading includes: a front and a back connected together by a first closure mechanism, such as a zipper; and a second closure mechanism such as a zipper located on an exterior of and connecting a clear cover to the front. The enclosure defines an enclosed interior space between the front and the back in which mounting surfaces are located for pins. The cover and an outwardly facing surface of the front define another enclosed interior space having an additional mounting surface for the mounting pins to be seen through the clear cover and showcased.
Self-tensioning magnetic tracks and track assemblies
A magnetic track assembly including an elongate channel having an open side, an end wall, and two parallel side walls; a first magnet disposed within the elongate channel near an interior side of the end wall; a compartment defined within the elongate channel spaced from the first magnet; and a screen receiver disposed within the compartment and including a second magnet arranged facing the first magnet. In the magnetic track assembly, the first and second magnets are of opposite polarity and the screen receiver is loosely disposed within the compartment such that a magnetic bond is intact between the first and second magnets when the first and second magnets are close together and the magnetic bond is broken when the first and second magnets are pulled apart.
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.
Book enclosure for the storage, transport and display of decorative pins
A book enclosure for the storage, transport and display of decorative pins. The book has page (s) that open for the viewing, securing, protecting and safe transportation of decorative pins in which the page surface is comprised of a puncturable and resilient material for the piercing through and repositioning of the post (s) portion of a decorative pin(s) and defining a mounting surface for decorative pins. Between the page (s) there is a protective page to prevent decorative pins from contact and potential damage. A translucent front with a zipper allows for the display and viewing of decorative pins. A zipper closure allows for the secure closure to protect pins from falling out. The book has a removable strap for shoulder or cross-body portage or to hang for display. The back of the book has a pouch enclosure for the storage of pin backs.
Patient examination system
A patient examination system for locating a patient above a floor. The patient examination system includes a frame assembly, one or more motion-controlling assemblies connected to the frame assembly for moving one or more selected movable portions of the frame assembly, and a patient support assembly that is supported by the frame assembly. The patient support assembly includes a seat subassembly, a back subassembly, a footrest subassembly, and a cover element covering a seat cushion and a footrest cushion in the footrest subassembly. The cover element has an exposed surface formed for engagement with the patient. The seat subassembly supports the seat cushion and is secured to the upper element of the frame assembly. The frame assembly is configured to support the seat subassembly relative to the floor in a lowered position thereof, in a raised position thereof, in intermediate seat positions therebetween, and in Trendelenburg positions.
SELF-TENSIONING MAGNETIC TRACKS AND TRACK ASSEMBLIES
A magnetic track assembly including an elongate channel having an open side, an end wall, and two parallel side walls; a first magnet disposed within the elongate channel near an interior side of the end wall; a compartment defined within the elongate channel spaced from the first magnet; and a screen receiver disposed within the compartment and including a second magnet arranged facing the first magnet. In the magnetic track assembly, the first and second magnets are of opposite polarity and the screen receiver is loosely disposed within the compartment such that a magnetic bond is intact between the first and second magnets when the first and second magnets are close together and the magnetic bond is broken when the first and second magnets are pulled apart.
Laterally repositionable roller shade
A roller shade may be retracted and extended. In various implementations, when a roller shade is extended it may be laterally repositioned. The roller shade may include a track and a travelling member.
Sanitary retractable barrier system
Sanitary barrier systems and methods for preventing transmission of biological substances and protecting human health are provided. A retractable barrier system may include a first supporting member and a barrier film. The first supporting member may comprise a first attachment element configured to position the barrier system vertically in use. The barrier film may have a fixed edge and a free edge, wherein the fixed edge is connected to the first supporting member. The barrier film is extendible to a desired length in a use configuration and retractable back on the first supporting member in a storage configuration. The barrier system may include a retracting mechanism such as a crank or a spring-loaded roller. The barrier film may comprise a sanitary portion. The barrier system may be combined with stanchions or queue barriers to protect individuals waiting in lines. The barrier system may also be used to provide barrier inside a multi-person vehicle.
