Abstract
A modular display unit includes a platform that occupies a rectangular footprint and includes opposing ends being substantially parallel to each other. The modular display unit also includes at least one wall that extends upwardly from the platform. The at least one wall has a first outer panel including a planar top end, a bottom end and a pair of side ends, a second outer panel having a planar top end, a bottom end and a pair of side ends, and an inner panel positioned between the first outer panel and the second outer panel and including a top end, a bottom end and a pair of side ends.
Claims20
A modular display unit comprising:
- a plurality of adjacent modular base components fitted together to occupy a rectangular footprint and comprising:
- a first endcap base component having at least four sides including an outer endcap end and an opposing inside end;
- a second endcap base component having at least four sides including an outer endcap end and an opposing inside end, wherein the outer endcap end of the second endcap base component is parallel with the outer endcap end of the first endcap base component;
- at least one center base component located between the first and second endcap base components and having at least six sides, wherein first and second sides of the at least six sided base component are adjacent and angled relative to each other to form a v-shape and wherein the first side of the v-shape abuts the inner end of the first endcap base component at a seam;
- and
- at least two angled walls that extend upwardly from the plurality of modular base components and are adjacent and angled relative to each other in a v-shape, wherein one of the at least two angled walls aligns with the seam formed by abutting the inner end of the first endcap base component with the first side of the v-shape of the at least six sided base component;
- and
- wherein a number of center base components in the modular display unit is one less than a number of the at least two angled walls.

A modular display unit comprising:
- a platform that occupies a rectangular footprint and includes opposing ends being substantially parallel to each other;
- and
- at least one wall that extends upwardly from the platform, wherein each wall comprises:
- a first outer panel including at least one opening having a length and a width;
- a second outer panel having at least one opening that aligns with the at least one opening in the first outer panel and having a length and a width that is the same as the length and the width of the at least one opening in the first outer panel;
- and
- an inner panel positioned between the first outer panel and the second outer panel and including at least one opening that aligns with the at least one opening in the first outer panel and the at least one opening in the second outer panel but has a length and a width that is greater than the lengths and the widths of the at least one opening in the first outer panel and the at least one opening in the second outer panel so that at least a bottom of the at least one opening in the inner panel is recessed from a bottom of the at least one opening in the first outer panel and a bottom of the at least one opening in the second outer panel.
