Modular structural support apparatus and method of constructing the same
A modular structural support system, having: a plurality of vertically disposed frame support beams, a plurality of horizontally disposed frame support beams, a plurality of fastener devices, fastener devices rigidly connected to the ends of the horizontally disposed support beams and rotatably and selectively lockingly attachable to one of the vertically disposed support beams.
Furniture Frame Structural System with Interlocking Members
A furniture frame structural system with interlocking members includes a first face frame, a second face frame, and a plurality of frame members. At least one joining feature for each frame member allows the frame members to arrange into a skeletal configuration as the joining feature includes a male interlocking portion and a female interlocking portion. More specifically, the male interlocking portion for each frame member is engaged with the female interlocking portion of an adjacent member from the frame members. Resultantly, the frame members complete the skeletal configuration. The first face frame and the second face frame are then oppositely mounted to the skeletal configuration completing the basic frame structure. Additional components such as post-tensioned fasteners, inner liners, outer panels held in side rails, a top, legs, and baseboard can be optionally integrated with the basic frame structure to improve the functionality and appearance of the resulting furniture.
CONFIGURABLE BOTTLE STOREAGE RACK AND KIT
A configurable bottle storage rack kit including a plurality of front bottle support panels, a plurality of rear bottle support panels, a plurality of panel connecting members, a plurality of leg members, and a plurality of spacing members. The front bottle support panels may be connected to one another by engaging hinges of the panel connecting members to the front bottle support panel and the rear bottle support panels may be connected to one another by engaging hinges of the panel connecting members to the rear bottle support panel. The panel connecting members may be attached to the leg members and the spacing members may be disposed between leg members where panel connecting members are attached to the leg members.
INTERLOCKING PANELS, MODULES WITH INTERLOCKING PANELS, AND A MODULAR DISPLAY CASE WITH INTERLOCKING MODULES WITH INTERLOCKING PANELS
Interlocking panels are assembled to form modules, and the modules are assembled to form a modular display case, for displaying, transporting and storing objects such as models, display items or valuable collectibles. The interlocking panels include interlocking side edge ball key tab including a resilient, compressible ball key, and ports for removably receiving the ball key tab and ball key.
Modular and scaleable furniture
The furniture having, between two lower and upper boards, each having two parallel planar surfaces and two front and rear edges, a module with one or two side walls, each having two upper and lower edges, and a rear back wall with two upper and lower edges, assembled to the side walls. The module can slide and be guided along the boards. One of the edges of each board having a longitudinal rib protruding perpendicular to its planar surfaces. The module is notched longitudinally and perpendicular to its side walls so as to slot onto the ribs of the boards and thus slide along these ribs.
Furniture kits and methods of making the same
Example furniture kits and methods of making the same are described. An example method includes coupling a first block of a connector to a rear wall of a disassembled piece of furniture, the first block having a first groove, and coupling a second block of the connector to a side wall of the piece of the furniture, the second block having a second groove. One of the first block or the second block includes an extension and the other of the first block or the second block includes an opening to receive the extension when the first and second blocks are coupled. The example method also includes packaging the rear wall, the side wall and a locking cover into a furniture kit to be used to assemble the piece of furniture. The locking cover is to couple the first and second blocks.
Variable-support-point span-aligned-grid framing system
A novel framing system where the horizontal members are formed in a span-aligned-grid consisting of a series of ribs and openings, providing variable-support-points for the vertical members, so that within a given assembly the vertical members may be positioned and repositioned at a multitude of available variable-support-points, in a plurality of usable positions and angle orientations in the horizontal directions of left-to-right and forward-to-back, creating customizable framed opening bays, and that the vertical members are guided to interlock with the horizontal members at a multitude of available predetermined positions, which intersect along spans at variable-support-point locations, as guided by said span-aligned-grid. The novel framing system produces a novel design, where the horizontal members are formed with a slatted patterned surface decoration, which is visually evident of the given configuration of said span-aligned-grid.
Modular organization system and means of interconnection and support
A customizable organizational and internal communications system comprises several interconnected modules, wherein the modules therein can be firmly interlocked and easily interchanged. The organizational system comprises multiple rectangular modules having longitudinal channels at all corners, each module being formed by four rectangular panels having alternating rectangular crenellations and rectangular recesses which are inversely configured on two opposite edges; multiple interlocking pins having a shape which is fitted into hollow space defined by the corner channels of adjacent modules so as to keep them from moving apart; and an optional rectangular box frame surrounding the assembly of multiple rectangular modules. Accessory panels having various functions, such as calendar, key holder, can be inserted in each module to provide for desired functionality customized by the end user.
Interlocking panels, modules with interlocking panels, and a modular display case with interlocking modules with interlocking panels
Interlocking panels are assembled to form modules, and the modules are assembled to form a modular display case, for displaying, transporting and storing objects such as models, display items or valuable collectibles. The interlocking panels include interlocking side edge ball key tab including a resilient, compressible ball key, and ports for removably receiving the ball key tab and ball key.
Configurable bottle storage rack and kit
A configurable bottle storage rack kit includes front bottle support panels and rear bottle support panels, with a bottle support panel hinge section being located at first and second sides of each panel. The kit includes panel connecting members, each defined by first and second sides, and each having a hinge located at the first and second sides. The kit includes a plurality of leg members and spacing members. The front bottle support panels, (and likewise, the rear bottle support panels) can be connected to one another by engaging the hinges of the respective panel connecting members to the respective (i.e., front or rear) bottle support panel hinge sections. The panel connecting members can be attached to the leg members, and the spacing members can be disposed between leg members where panel connecting members are be attached to the leg members.
