Abstract:
The present invention relates to a modular tile system comprising various tile elements, which can be assembled to form flexible partitions, wall coverings or spherical shapes, the extent, appearance and characteristics of which can be changed according to specific requirements by choosing appropriate tile elements and method of assembling said elements. The invention furthermore relates to means and methods for assembly. The invention furthermore relates to the use of said tile system and method for attaining given, desired design effects, functional effects and for providing the possibility to apply acoustic control of a room or local areas within a room, for instance around a work place. Specifically the present invention relates to a modular tile element (1 ) comprising a central main body (3) comprising side parts, the central main body (3) being provided with protrusions (4) extending in an outward direction from said body (3) along some or all of said side parts for releasable engagement with another modular tile element (1 ), where said protrusions (4) are separated from said central main body (3) by embossments (7) along said side parts of the central main body (3), whereby the protrusions (4) become substantially rectilinearly pivotable along said embossment.
Abstract:
The mounting device (1) includes a longitudinal frame (3) for mounting by a longitudinal mounting bracket (4). The longitudinal mounting bracket has an at least substantially L-formed cross-section (5) including a first and second flange (6, 7). The longitudinal frame has a ridge (12) or groove adapted to engage with a ridge or groove (13, 14) at free ends (8, 9) of the respective flanges. The longitudinal mounting bracket is thereby adapted to be mounted on the longitudinal frame in a first position with the first flange mounted on a horizontal mounting surface (15) or in a second position with the first flange mounted on a vertical mounting surface (16). The longitudinal frame has a snap- lock connector part (17) locking releasably with one of corresponding snap-lock connector parts (18, 19) arranged on the first and second flanges between the free ends and fixed ends (10, 11) of the respective flanges.
