Abstract

Abstract A flexible wall section for heating or refrigerating rooms or chambers having at least one layer of flexible material with good heat insulating capacity, comprising coupling means for fast and releasable interconnection with adjacent wall portions; pulling members for folding and removing said wall section when said coupling means have been released; and folding indications perpendicular to the direction of removal so as to facilitate folding of the section during the removing operation.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 164 words
A flexible wall section for heating or refrigerating chambers having at least one layer of flexible material with good heat insulating capacity, said wall section comprising: a. coupling means along at least three side edges for fast and releasable interconnection of the section with adjacent wall portions; b. biased pulling members for folding and removing said wall section when said side edges have been released, said pulling members maintaining said wall section in the removed position, c. folding indications perpendicular to the direction of removal so as to facilitate folding of said section during the removing operation, and d. eyelets for each pulling member provided at every second folding indication, said pulling members being attached to the edge parallel with the folding indications and passing through said eyelets, the distance between the folding indications increasing progressively from the lower edge of the section towards the upper edge of the section after each fold so that the upper folds become larger than the lower folds.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 164 words
A flexible wall section for heating or refrigerating chambers having at least one layer of flexible material with good heat insulating capacity, said wall section comprising: a. coupling means along at least three side edges for fast and releasable interconnection of the section with adjacent wall portions; b. biased pulling members for folding and removing said wall section when said side edges have been released, said pulling members maintaining said wall section in the removed position, c. folding indications perpendicular to the direction of removal so as to facilitate folding of said section during the removing operation, and d. eyelets for each pulling member provided at every second folding indication, said pulling members being attached to the edge parallel with the folding indications and passing through said eyelets, the distance between the folding indications increasing progressively from the lower edge of the section towards the upper edge of the section after each fold so that the upper folds become larger than the lower folds.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 162 words
A flexible wall section for heating or refrigerating chambers having at least one layer of flexible material with good heat insulating capacity, said wall section comprising: a. coupling means along at least three side edges for fast and releasable interconnection of the section with adjacent wall portions, b. biased pulling members connected to the lowest edge of said wall section for lifting and folding said wall section when said side edges have been released, said pulling members maintaining said wall section in the removed position, c. folding indications perpendicular to the direction of lifting so as to facilitate folding of said section during the lifting operation, and d. eyelets for each pulling member provided at every second folding indication, said pulling members passing through said eyelets, the distance between the folding indications increasing progressively from the lower edge of the section towards the upper edge of the section after each fold so that the upper folds become larger than the lower folds.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 162 words
A flexible wall section for heating or refrigerating chambers having at least one layer of flexible material with good heat insulating capacity, said wall section comprising: a. coupling means along at least three side edges for fast and releasable interconnection of the section with adjacent wall portions, b. biased pulling members connected to the lowest edge of said wall section for lifting and folding said wall section when said side edges have been released, said pulling members maintaining said wall section in the removed position, c. folding indications perpendicular to the direction of lifting so as to facilitate folding of said section during the lifting operation, and d. eyelets for each pulling member provided at every second folding indication, said pulling members passing through said eyelets, the distance between the folding indications increasing progressively from the lower edge of the section towards the upper edge of the section after each fold so that the upper folds become larger than the lower folds.
