Abstract:
Interlocking support posts form an interlocking rack system which may have a single mold which provides both a male and a female joinder member. Between the support posts can be mounted panels such as solar panels. Under the support posts can be installed a roof stand off assembly which prevents water from weakening the roof. Various combinations of construction members offer a cost effective building block array of mounting panels, wind turbines, and any appliance on a roof and/or anywhere in a building. A two recess mounting bracket is ideally suited to mount solar panels on a roof. A lower recess can be fastened to a bolt anchor on the roof. The opposing recess can secure a mounting clip which attaches directly to the solar panel. Identical support posts can interlock. Various embodiments include conduit clasps, slider tracks, mounts for cabinets, sign posts, and through roof screwed anchors.
Abstract:
A partitioning system comprises channel sections having inner and outer mounting elements (128, 130) to receive complementary mounting members such as a glazing chair (158) and a glazing bead (154), these being located within the main mounting member and thus without cumulatively adding to the lengthwise dimensions of the partition walling system. The mounting elements are provided at the inner side surfaces of the main mounting section in order to control flexibility for inserting complementary mounting members. In a further embodiment the complementary mounting members e.g. a glazing chair and associated bead can be fitted together before the main assembly operation and cut to size. These complementary mounting members have a joggled cross-sectional configuration so as to add to their flexibility for clipping into the assembly. A system for clipping wall boarding to upright supports enables individual boards to be removed without progressive removal of all.
