    摘要: An apparatus having a partition with a frame, a worksurface and a bracket assembly. The bracket assembly supports a rear edge of the worksurface to the frame at a selected location on a horizontally extending attachment feature included on the frame. The bracket assembly includes a partition-engaging bracket configured to securely engage the horizontally extending attachment feature, a worksurface-engaging bracket configured to securely engage the rear edge of the worksurface, and an interconnecting bracket. The partition-engaging bracket and the interconnecting bracket include horizontally-extending overlapping flanges. The worksurface-engaging bracket is configured to interlockingly secure the horizontally-extending overlapping flanges together in a vertically adjusted selected position.

    摘要: A bracket is provided for attaching an end of a first partition to a face of a second partition at a selected location intermediate vertical side edges of the second partition, where the second partition includes a horizontal frame member having a horizontal row of slots. The bracket includes an L-shaped rigid member stamped from rigid sheet metal having a first horizontal leg and a first vertical leg, with the first horizontal leg having hooks each with a notch configured to securely engage selected slots on the second partition. The bracket further includes an L-shaped interlock member stamped from spring steel having a second horizontal leg and a second vertical leg. The second horizontal and vertical legs lay on the first horizontal and vertical legs, respectively, and the second horizontal leg has an interlock tab that extends to and overlaps a rear of one of the hooks. The interlock tab is configured to prevent the hooks from disengaging from the horizontal frame member when the hooks are engaged with selected ones of the slots. The second vertical leg is attached to the first vertical leg at a location spaced from the second horizontal leg, so that a portion of the second horizontal leg can be flexed to move the interlock tab to a non-interlocked position spaced away from the hooks to fully reveal the hooks for engagement with selected ones of the slots, but the portion is resilient and configured to bias the interlock tab into a normally interlocked position overlaying the hooks to prevent the hooks from being accidentally disengaged from the selected slots.

    摘要: A partition system includes a first partition having a face and a horizontal row of slots accessible through the face, and a second partition having an abutting end adapted to be positioned adjacent the face. The first partition includes a frame and covers on the frame that define a horizontally extending gap for accessing the slots. A connector for interconnecting the abutting end to the face includes a one-piece U-shaped clip having a pair of legs forming a first end with opposing hooks configured to securely horizontally engage the slots in the face, and having an intermediate section forming a second end configured to securely engage the abutting end. The intermediate section is resilient such that the legs can be flexed together to an install position for insertion into a selected slot and can be flexed apart to a retaining position where the hooks are positioned to securely engage the selected slot in the first partition. The intermediate section and the legs form an interior space therebetween shaped to closely receive a fastener when the legs are in the retaining position so that the existence of the fastener between the legs prevents the legs from being moved to the install position. A method is also defined related to the above.

    摘要: A partition construction includes a partition frame having opposing vertical edges and upper and lower frame members each defining a repeating pattern of configured apertures and holes extending horizontally between its vertical side edges. The configured apertures are "+" or "T" shaped, and include at least a smaller lower section and an enlarged middle section. Cover panels are attachable to the partition frame by top locator/connectors that engage the smaller lower section of selected apertures in the upper frame member, and by bottom connectors that engage an upper one of the holes in the lower frame member. The cover panels are shaped to leave the enlarged middle section of the configured apertures open, so that they can receive a component-supporting bracket or an off-module partition supporting bracket to the primary partition frame. A U-shaped "off-module" connector is provided having a pair of hooked legs for engaging a selected one of the apertures in the enlarged middle section thereof, and a rear section configured for connection to the end of an off-module partition frame. The partition frame includes a pair of leveling members each including downwardly disposed end sections. A floor channel is provided having a locking wall spaced above a floor-engaging wall. The locking wall includes key hole apertures having a large end for vertically receiving the end sections of the leveling members and further having a small end for horizontally receiving the end sections of the leveler. The locking wall includes marginal material around the small end for engaging a recess on the end sections of the leveler to retain the leveler in the key hole apertures.

    摘要: A quick mounting arrangement detachably mounts a light fixture or the like in an overhead cabinet of a furniture article. Front and rear mounting ledges are located in the lower portion of the cabinet and are oriented to generally face one another. Two fixed latches protrude from the rear of the light fixture and include a clip to hold a power cord and the light, and at least one reciprocating latch protrudes from the front side of the light fixture. Each reciprocating latch is a one-piece molded part including a body adapted to slidingly fit in a shaped aperture in the light fixture, a first leg adapted to abuttingly engage the front mounting ledge, and a second leg extending at an angle from the first leg free end toward the light fixture to form a ramp. During installation, the light fixture is positioned at an angle so that the fixed latch rests on the rear ledge, and the reciprocating latch is positioned ready to be rotated toward the front ledge. As the light fixture is rotated upwardly, the reciprocating latch engages the front ledge, causing the second leg to ramp against the front ledge and bias the first leg to a recessed position. As the light fixture is further rotated to its final position, the second leg passes past the front ledge, and the first leg springs to a latch position abuttingly resting on the front ledge. Notably, the reciprocating latch can be released by manually biasing the first leg to the release position and dropping the light fixture downwardly. The latching and installation is accomplished without the use of separate fasteners or tools.

    摘要: A quickly erectable structure includes expandable/collapsible top and bottom assemblies that are interconnected to facilitate forming an enclosure and to facilitate taking down the enclosure. Specifically, the bottom assembly includes a plurality of interconnected X-shaped subframes that combine to form a telescoping scissor frame. The top assembly includes a plurality of inverted foldable Y-shaped subframes attached together and to a top of the telescoping scissor frame in a manner that combines the two to form a stable umbrella-like overcenter top frame attached atop the telescoping scissor frame. A drawstring mechanism is attached to a peak of the structure to hold the top frame in an expanded position. Flexible covers are attached to the two frames, and a drawstring arrangement on the top cover allows flaps to be lifted to form 360 degrees of windows.
