Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1475508A2] A partition, upwardly movable into storage position and downwardly movable into vertical, down position, to condon off areas or for sectioning usable space in a building. The partition comprises a plurality of similar trains (4) of elongated members (10). The members (10) of each train (4) are arranged to form a single pantograph forming longitudinally aligned rows of diamonds. The trains (4) are spaced laterally to form a partition plane and oriented so that the diamonds of the pantographs operate in a plane at a 90 DEG angle to that partition plane. Bars (22) or panels are secured to corresponding members (10) in adjacent trains (4). Cables (28) are provided to raise and lower the trains (4) at a similar rate. When panels are used, they form a vertical wall when the pantographs are in elongated, down position. <IMAGE>
