Embodiment Construction

[0026]This physical description of the invention specifies shape, size, weight, assembly, appearance, and features. The description of the invention is accompanied with several drawings displayed in FIG. 1 through FIG. 6 of the drawing. The integrated WFH system is further illustrated in FIG. 7 through FIG. 13 to show several expansion possibilities. The storage capacity of this basic module is 33,000 cubic-inches with a standard 8 feet ceiling. The weight is absorbed by the walls or floor. (Comer furniture on the market has a typical capacity of 16,000 cubic inches and weighs typically over of 200 lbs).

[0027]The description here is for the typical specifications of the basic module which is contained in a carton and can be sold as a starter-kit. The basic module consists of (1) three rectangular front panels (two of them with opening), (2) two translucent panels, (3) three triangular shelf panels, (4) one V-shaped cardboard backdrop, and (5) associated hinges, fasteners, and washer...

Abstract

The Wall-Furniture Hybrid (WFH) storage system with multimedia applications is provided as a new and unique modularly expandable and contractible wall-furniture integrated display and storage system. It has a new reduced structural bulk, thus optimizes environmental space utilization for efficient end-user benefits. It has a low-cost to high-value ratio beneficial to the end-user. It is intended for homes and institutional room comers and walls. The building block of this invented product system consists of a basic module which is expandable by combining one or several of them to form a free standing column, furniture unit, or display panels. The basic module is reproducible in high quantities using faux pas stone and hardwood plastic material, or resin-impregnated cardboard material, and a form-pressed tooling process, or a thermal vacuum forming tooling process. This WFH system can be produced with only a minimal of parts to significantly reduce the labor required for assembly.

Description

BACKGROUND[0001]1. Field of Invention[0002]This invention relates to the use of an expandable or contractible modular system to form a Wall-Furniture-Hybrid storage system (hereinafter referred to as the “WFH system”) and / or a panel display unit for added values and architectural elegance.[0003]2. Description of Prior Art[0004]Prior art search found no products on the market which are similar in nature to this new invention. Search of general retail and specialty stores found no similar inventions, either. However, some near likenesses were found in the Egyptian antiquity and modern-day tradeshow display fixtures. The modularity is prevalent in that industry but differs from this invention.[0005]Search of the closet organizers yielded a large number of patents. The patents are similar in the narrative text describing the benefits but each has a narrow but distinct nuance. Most importantly, these patented innovations are covering bulky and heavy-weighted products. The present inventi...
