Multifunctional design housing components

Abstract

A multifunctional design housing is disclosed. In some examples, the multifunctional design housing includes an outer case with a back wall, a first side wall, and a second side wall. The back wall includes a first back wall edge and a second back wall edge. The first side wall extends forward from the first back wall edge, and the second side wall extends forward from the second back wall edge. The front wall includes a first side wall front edge and a second side wall front edge. A front opening is formed between the first side wall front edge and the second side wall front edge providing access to an interior volume within the outer case. A conduit control arm with a support element is spaced forward from the back wall and coupled to the outer case by a spacing element.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A track component, comprising:
 an outer case having:
 a back wall; 
 a first side wall extending forward from a first back wall edge; and 
 a second side wall extending forward from a second back wall edge; 
   a conduit control arm having a support element spaced forward from the back wall and coupled to the outer case by a spacing element;   wherein the conduit control arm separates a first interior volume from a second interior volume within the outer case.   
     
     
         2 . The track component of  claim 1 , wherein a back surface of the support element is in contact with the first interior volume and the second interior volume. 
     
     
         3 . The track component of  claim 1 , wherein a height of the first side wall, a height of the second side wall, and a height of the conduit control arm are equal. 
     
     
         4 . The track component of  claim 3 , wherein a front surface of the support element is on an exterior of the track component. 
     
     
         5 . The track component of  claim 1 , wherein a lateral cross-section of the conduit control arm is generally T-shaped. 
     
     
         6 . The track component of  claim 1 , wherein the support element comprises a first support element longitudinal edge and a second support element longitudinal edge opposite the first support element longitudinal edge. 
     
     
         7 . The track component of  claim 6 , wherein the support element includes a first conduit retention ridge and a second conduit retention ridge each extending rearwardly. 
     
     
         8 . The track component of  claim 6 , wherein:
 the first support element longitudinal edge and the second support element longitudinal edge comprise a first slot inner edge and a second slot inner edge respectively; and   the first side wall and the second side wall comprise a first slot outer edge and a second slot outer edge respectively.   
     
     
         9 . The track component of  claim 1 , further comprising a first front opening and a second front opening between a first side wall front edge and a second side wall front edge, the first front opening providing access to a first interior volume of the track component and the second front opening providing access to a second interior volume of the track component. 
     
     
         10 . The track component of  claim 9 , wherein the first front opening includes a first slot and the second front opening includes a second slot, and wherein each of the first slot and the second slot located on opposite sides of the spacing element. 
     
     
         11 . The track component of  claim 10 , wherein the back includes a first channel aligned with the first slot and a second channel aligned with the second slot. 
     
     
         12 . The track component of  claim 1 , wherein the track component is a column track or a hood track of a multifunctional design housing. 
     
     
         13 . A multifunctional housing, comprising:
 a first vertical support member and a second vertical support member spaced from the first vertical support member; and   a track component coupled between the first and second vertical support members, the track component comprising an outer case comprising:
 a back wall; 
 a first side wall extending forward from a first back wall edge; and 
 a second side wall extending forward from a second back wall edge; 
   a conduit control arm having a support element spaced forward from the back wall and coupled to the outer case by a spacing element; and   wherein the conduit control arm separates a first interior volume from a second interior volume within the outer case.   
     
     
         14 . The multifunctional housing of  claim 13 , wherein a back surface of the support element is in contact with both the first interior volume and the second interior volume. 
     
     
         15 . The multifunctional housing of  claim 13 , wherein the conduit control arm comprises a generally T-shaped lateral cross-section. 
     
     
         16 . The multifunctional housing of  claim 13 , wherein the support element comprises conduit retention ridges on either side of the spacing element. 
     
     
         17 . The multifunctional housing of  claim 13 , wherein the track component comprises a first front opening and a second front opening located on opposite sides of the spacing element. 
     
     
         18 . The multifunctional housing of  claim 17 , wherein the first front opening and the second front opening are each defined by opposing slot inner and outer edges and include a removable slot covering. 
     
     
         19 . The multifunctional housing of  claim 18 , wherein at least one of the slot coverings is translucent or transparent. 
     
     
         20 . The multifunctional housing of  claim 13 , further comprising a screen roll extending through a length of the first interior volume.
