Abstract

The disclosed subject matter pertains to an artificial panel comprising a spaced apart first wall and second wall. Each of the walls has an inside surface and an outside surface, and at least one fastener location configured at an outside surface of the at least one of the first wall and second wall of the panel. The fastener location is configured for receiving therethrough a fastener and wherein one or more ribs extend between the first wall and the second wall, along at least a portion of the panel, the fastener location being indicative of the location thereof.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A door system, comprising:
 a main body configured with a first face, a second face, a first edge rail-mount, a second edge rail-mount, a hinge stile, and a locking stile;   a first rail and a second rail configured for interchangeably articulating to the first edge rail-mount and the second edge rail-mount; and   at least one cladding panel configured for attaching over at least a portion of the first face of the main body, at either an upright orientation of the main body or a bottom-up orientation of the main body;   wherein same components of the door system serve for both a left side door and a right side door.   
     
     
         2 . The door system of  claim 1 , wherein at least the main body and the at least one cladding panel are made of molded material. 
     
     
         3 . The door system of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one cladding panel is readily replaceable. 
     
     
         4 . The door system of  claim 1 , wherein the first edge rail-mount and the second edge rail-mount are substantially identical. 
     
     
         5 . The door system of  claim 1 , wherein the first rail and the second rail are substantially identical, interchangeable, and configured for top/bottom mount. 
     
     
         6 . The door system of  claim 1 , wherein the main body is configured with symmetrically disposed apertures serving as windows or venting ports. 
     
     
         7 . The door system of  claim 6 , wherein the at least one cladding panel conceals one or more of the apertures. 
     
     
         8 . A corner coupler for securing two wall members, the corner coupler comprising:
 a generally omega-shaped member including:
 an inter-wall gap support; and 
 a first wall support arm and a second wall support arm extending from the inter-wall gap support, the first wall support arm and the second wall support arm disposed at an angle of at least 90° with respect to the inter-wall gap support; 
 wherein the first wall support arm has a free end configured with a first wall gripping edge; and 
 wherein the second wall support arm has a free end configured with a second wall gripping edge. 
   
     
     
         9 . The corner coupler of  claim 8 , wherein, when mounted at a corner of the two wall members of a structure, the inter-wall gap support of the corner coupler is configured for extending between facing edges of the two wall members, the first wall support arm and the second wall support arm being configured for bearing against respective portions of a first one of the two wall members and a second one of the two wall members, and the first wall gripping edge and the second wall gripping edge are configured for arresting within a groove extending at the first wall member and the second wall member, respectively. 
     
     
         10 . The corner coupler of  claim 9 , wherein the first wall support arm and the second wall support arm are disposed at an angle greater than a nominal angular value thereof, so as to generate an engaging force bearing within the groove at the respective two wall members. 
     
     
         11 . The corner coupler of  claim 8 , wherein the first and second wall support arms bear flush against the two wall members. 
     
     
         12 . The corner coupler of  claim 8 , wherein the a generally omega-shaped member is made of metal sheet material or elastic sheet material. 
     
     
         13 . The corner coupler of  claim 8 , wherein at least the first and second wall support arms are elastic. 
     
     
         14 . The corner coupler of  claim 8 , being symmetric about a longitudinal axis thereof, or asymmetric as to conform to different shapes of the two wall members. 
     
     
         15 . The corner coupler of  claim 14 , wherein the corner coupler is asymmetric, and having at least one of the following features: (i) a length of the first wall support arm is different from a length of the second wall support arm; (ii) a length of the first wall gripping edge is different from a length of the second wall gripping edge; or (iii) an angle of the first wall gripping edge with respect to the first wall support arm is different from an angle of the second wall gripping edge with respect to the second wall support arm. 
     
     
         16 . The corner coupler of  claim 8 , wherein the inter-wall gap support includes a radial extent that is adjustable so as to span an entire gap between the two wall members or a portion thereof. 
     
     
         17 . The corner coupler of  claim 8 , wherein the first wall support arm and the second wall support arm are spaced apart at 90°, and wherein the inter-wall gap support has a central axis disposed at 135° with respect to the first and second wall support arms. 
     
     
         18 . The corner coupler of  claim 8 , wherein the first wall gripping edge and the second wall gripping edge are disposed at a 90° with respect to the first and second wall support arms. 
     
     
         19 . The corner coupler of  claim 8 , wherein at least one of the first wall gripping edge or second wall gripping edge extends from an edge of the first and second wall support arms, respectively, with an intermediate indent bulging inwards in direction of a space between the first and second support arms. 
     
     
         20 . The corner coupler of  claim 8 , wherein the first wall support arm and the second wall support arm are disposed at an obtuse angle with respect to the inter-wall gap support.
