The present invention relates to a construction kit and, in particular, modular flooring elements for the assembly of a modular raised floor base with detachable and interchangeable cover plates. More specifically, the stackable floor elements with associated presentation pedestal that may be assembled horizontally or vertically in order to assemble a presentation floor or stage to showcase products. The main objective of the present invention is to provide improved coupling means for a composition between floor elements, blocks, and cover plates which further allows to make a wide variety of floors with different heights and shapes.

A panel assembly for installation onto a track beam including a beam flange having a non-linear edge is disclosed. The panel assembly includes a panel and a lockable catch moveably connected to the panel. The lockable catch includes a lockable mating edge configured to selectively mate with the non-linear edge of the beam flange of the track beam. The lockable catch also includes a lockable catch edge extending beyond the lockable mating edge. The lockable catch is moveable on a lower surface of the panel between an unlocked position and a locked position. In the unlocked position the lockable catch edge is retracted. In the locked position, the lockable mating edge mates with the non-linear edge of the beam flange and the lockable catch edge retains the panel on the track beam.

Disclosed is an assembly structure including multiple assembly units that are connected to one another. Side edges of adjacent assembly units opposite one another are connected by insertion by means of an insertion groove and an insertion panel. A side edge has two end faces connected to the adjacent side edge and a circumferential surface connected to the two end faces, and the insertion direction is the direction of the circumferential surface that faces the side edge of the assembly unit. By means of insertion and by limiting the insertion direction to be a direction of the circumferential surface facing the side edge, i.e. when adjacent assembly units are connected by insertion, other assembly units are not affected, thereby enabling simple assembly of any assembly units.

A first unit (100) including a first member (110) of a releasable fastening arrangement (300) is presented. The releasable fastening arrangement (300) is arranged to provide a mechanical connection of the first unit (100) to a second unit (200), and an electrical connection of a first electrical circuit (120) included in the first unit (100) to a second electrical circuit (220) included in the second unit (200), when a male profile (115) of the first member (110) is inserted into a corresponding female profile (215) included in a second member (210) of the second unit (200). The mechanical connection is provided based one or more at least partially resilient latching arm members (117) of the male profile (115) engaging with one or more corresponding slots (217) of the corresponding female profile (215). The electrical connection is provided by contact between one or more first flexible conductors (124) arranged on a first flexible and electrically insulating layer (126) of the first electrical circuit (120) and one or more second flexible conductors (224) arranged on a second flexible and electrically insulating layer (226) of the second electrical circuit (220).

A cover assembly generally includes a lock channel, flush mounted panels, a fastener, and a nut. Advantageously, the cover and cover systems are corrosion resistant and/or high strength, comprised of removable panels, offer easy installation and access, may be high strength fiber reinforced plastic, offer life cycle cost savings, may be compression sealed, have long relatively maintenance-free life, and/or are customizable.

A refrigerator includes a main body and a storage compartment provided inside the main body. A heater assembly partitions the storage compartment into a first storage compartment and a second storage compartment. The heater assembly includes a first case provided to define a surface of the first storage compartment, a second case coupled to the first case to form an accommodation space with the first case and provided to define a surface of the second storage compartment, a fixing unit formed on at least one of an inner surface of the first case and an inner surface of the second case, and a surface heater fixed to at least one of the inner surface of the first case and the inner surface of the second case by being coupled to the fixing unit. The surface heater includes a film and a heating wire printed on the film.

A cage connector for connecting two mesh panels of a poultry cage. The connector includes two elongated members which are hingedly connected together and which are releasably fastenable to each other, so that mesh parts from each panel are connected by placing the parts between the members and fastening the members to each other. At least one member has a tab which projects transversely to the longitudinal axis of the member in the same plane, or a plane parallel to the surface of the plane of the member.

The proposed morphable sheet structure comprises a succession of adjacent flexible elongated rods (10) laterally connected to each other defining a sheet structure (1), each rod (10) defining a longitudinal axis (A); wherein the rods (10) are grouped in pairs, each pair of adjacent rods (10) are connected to each other through a first connector (11) tightly connected to a second connector (12) complementary with the first connector (11), being the first connector (11) part of one rod (10) of said pair of adjacent rods (10) and being the second connector (12) part of the other rod (10) of said pair of adjacent rods (10); being the first connector (11) and the second connector (12) slidably movable to each other in the direction of the longitudinal axis (A); the first connector (11) and/or the second connector (12) extending along the entire longitude of the rod (10).

Connectors, systems with connectors and processes with connectors are described. These include how connectors can actively hold external portions of two frames or other components together during transport and before final installation, as well as, how the connectors can be repositionable on the frame or other component so as to provide a mechanical connection in one position and not to provide a mechanical connection when moved into a second position. The connectors can also function to provide spacing or alignment or both between frames or other components grouped together using the connectors.
