Abstract

A cubicle jack, including a base; a vertical member joined to the base, a winch joined to the vertical member, a pulley joined to the vertical member, a cable communicating between the winch and pulley; and a connector joined to the cable, the connector having hooks adapted to secure to a cubicle wall; and mechanism for elevating the connector relative to a cubicle wall.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A cubicle jack, comprising: 
 a base having a crossbar and a back bar, the cross bar having a right end, a left and a midpoint, a right castor joined adjacent the right end, a left castor joined adjacent the left end, the back bar having a back end and a connective end, a back castor joined adjacent the back end, the connective end joined to the cross bar at the midpoint;    a vertical member having a bottom end and a top end, the bottom end being joined to the base; a winch joined to the vertical member between the bottom end and the top end, a pulley joined to the vertical member adjacent the top end, a cable communicating between the winch and pulley; and    a connector joined to the cable, the connector having hooks adapted to secure to a cubicle wall;    means for elevating the connector relative to a cubicle wall, the means for elevating being a spring joined to the connector and being selectively joinable to a cubicle wall; and    a sliding board defining dimples on an upper surface thereof, the dimples sized to receive feet of a cubical wall.    
   
   
       2 . A cubicle jack, comprising: 
 a base;    a vertical member joined to the base, a winch joined to the vertical member, a pulley joined to the vertical member, a cable communicating between the winch and pulley;    a connector joined to the cable, the connector having hooks adapted to secure to a cubicle wall; and    means for elevating the connector relative to a cubicle wall.    
   
   
       3 . The device of  claim 2 , wherein the base has a crossbar, back bar and receptacle  
   
   
       4 . The device of  claim 3  wherein the cross bar has a right end, a left end and a midpoint.  
   
   
       5 . The device of  claim 4  further comprising a right castor joined adjacent the right end.  
   
   
       6 . The device of  claim 4  further comprising a left castor joined adjacent the left end.  
   
   
       7 . The device of  claim 4  wherein the receptacle is joined to the crossbar adjacent the midpoint.  
   
   
       8 . The device of  claim 3  wherein the back bar has a back end and a connective end.  
   
   
       9 . The device of  claim 8  further comprising a back castor joined adjacent the back end.  
   
   
       10 . The device of  claim 8  wherein the connective end is joined to the cross bar.  
   
   
       11 . The device of  claim 3  wherein the receptacle has receptacle walls, the receptacle walls defining a vertical bore and a horizontal bore.  
   
   
       12 . The device of  claim 2  wherein the vertical member has a bottom end and a top end, the bottom end defining a horizontal bore.  
   
   
       13 . The device of  claim 12  wherein the bottom end is positioned in a receptacle mounted on the cross bar.  
   
   
       14 . The device of  claim 13  wherein the bottom end of the vertical member is fastened to the cross bar with a fastener extending through the horizontal bore.  
   
   
       15 . The device of  claim 2  further comprising a rest joined to the vertical member, the rest being adapted to support a cubicle wall thereon.  
   
   
       16 . The device of  claim 2  wherein the winch is remotely operable.  
   
   
       17 . A cubicle, moving system, comprising: 
 a plurality of cubicle walls joined to make a cubicle;    a clamp secured through wire-ways defined through the cubical walls;    a plurality of jacks disposed about and joined to the cubicle walls, the jacks having winch for raising and lowering the walls;    means for simultaneous remote operation of the jacks such that the jacks are adapted to lift and lower the walls at a uniform rate; and    a sliding board removably positioned under the cubical walls.    
   
   
       18 . The device of  claim 17  wherein the cubicle walls form a plurality of interconnected cubicles.  
   
   
       19 . The device of  claim 17  wherein each jack has a cable joined to a connector, each connector having hooks joined to the cubicle walls.  
   
   
       20 . The device of  claim 19  further comprising a spring selectively joining each connector to the cubicle walls.
