Abstract:
A building panel system is provided that includes a perimeter frame; a main beam attached to the perimeter frame; a carrier attached to the main beam, the carrier having a plurality of identical hook members, each of the hook members having a protruding hooking portion on only a first side of the hook member, and a non-hooking portion on a second side of the hook member, the second side being opposite the first side; and a plurality of panels removably attached to the carrier, each of the panels being attached to the carrier by engaging one of the hooking portions.
Abstract:
An integrated ceiling and light system that incorporates a light module into a ceiling tile. The system may include a grid support system suspended from an overhead support structure that includes at least one grid support element and first and second ceiling tiles supported by the grid support element in an adjacent manner. A nesting cavity may be formed into the first and second ceiling tiles such that a light module may be disposed within the nesting cavity and coupled to the first and second ceiling tiles. The ceiling tiles may be of the type that conceals the grid support element on which it is supported. In one alternative embodiment, the light module and a nesting region of the ceiling tile may include corresponding edge profiles to facilitate mating therebetween to enable coupling of the light source to the ceiling tile.
Abstract:
A ceiling system having a perimeter frame; a grid configured to support a plurality of substrates; and a plurality of bracket assemblies coupling the grid to the perimeter frame, the plurality of bracket assemblies adjustable between a plurality of states in which the grid is supported at a different height relative to the perimeter frame in each of the plurality of states.

Abstract:
A grid assembly for hanging a ceiling panel, and a ceiling system including the same, and a saddle bracket for use with the same. The grid assembly may comprise a grid support comprising a strut comprising a flange portion, a web portion, a bulb portion. The bulb portion may comprise an undersurface. The saddle bracket may comprise a horizontal locking feature, a vertical locking feature, a panel mounting feature, and a web receiving cavity. The saddle bracket may be mounted to the strut so that the vertical locking feature engages the undersurface of the bulb portion to vertically lock the saddle bracket to the strut and the horizontal locking feature of the saddle bracket may be alterable between locked and unlocked states.
Abstract:
A mounting bracket assembly for a ceiling panel, and a ceiling panel apparatus and ceiling system incorporating the same. The mounting bracket assembly may be coupled to the ceiling panel and comprise a mounting bracket and a torsion spring mounted to a hook member of the mounting bracket. A multi-purpose fastener is included that is alterable between: (A) a locked state in which the multi-purpose fastener: (i) extends through a multi-purpose aperture of the mounting bracket and fastens the mounting bracket to the ceiling panel; and (ii) prohibits the torsion spring from being removed from the hook member; and (B) an unlocked state in which the multi-purpose fastener does not obstruct the torsion spring from being removed from the mounting bracket.
