Tangential non-dimensional interface module

摘要

Devices, systems, and components for attaching a modular element to a lateral surface at a variety of different angles include a connector module having a modular element interface on one end and a lateral surface interface on an opposing end. A flexible tip seal is located at the lateral surface interface of the connector module. The flexible tip seal enables an assembler to attach a modular element to a desired lateral structure at a variety of different angles.

主权项

1. A system comprising the following:
a modular wall; a lateral structure; and a connector component employing a flexible material for connecting the modular wall to the lateral structure, the lateral structure including a first end and a second end, the connector component connecting the modular wall to a space or groove that is positioned between the first end and the second end of the lateral structure, allowing the modular wall to be rotated at the space or groove relative to the lateral structure, comprising:
connector module having a lateral structure interface end having a recess, and an opposing modular element interface end connected to a removable modular element; anda tip seal positioned at the lateral structure interface end of the connector module within the recess so that a plurality of flanges extending from the tip seal hold the tip seal within the same recess of the connector module, the tip seal having a hollow portion that extends outwardly and away from the connector module, and that deforms and expands within the space or groove of the lateral structure, thereby flexibly attaching the modular element to intersect the lateral interface at the space or groove that is positioned between the first end and the second end of the lateral structure.
