Abstract
An apparatus includes a front panel that includes a front slot along an edge of the front panel and a back panel fixedly coupled to the front panel. The back panel includes a back slot along an edge of the back panel. The front slot and back slot align. A side panel is configured to fold into a gap between the front panel and the back panel, and a pivot coupling at a corner of the side panel. The pivot coupling is slidably coupled to the front and back slots. The corner of the side panel slidably moves along the front and back slots via the pivot coupling, and the side panel is movable from a stowed position in the gap to an open position to the side of the front and back panels by rotating the side panel and moving the pivot coupling along the front and back slots.
Claims20
An apparatus comprising:
- a front panel comprising a front slot along an edge of the front panel;
- a back panel fixedly coupled to the front panel, the back panel comprising a back slot along an edge of the back panel, wherein the front slot and back slot align;
- a side panel configured to fold into a gap between the front panel and the back panel;
- and
- a pivot coupling at a corner of the side panel, the pivot coupling slidably coupled to the front and the back slots,
- wherein the corner of the side panel slidably moves along the front and back slots via the pivot coupling, and
- wherein the side panel is movable from a stowed position in the gap to an open position to the side of the front and back panels by rotating the side panel and moving the pivot coupling along the front and back slots.
An apparatus comprising:
- a front panel comprising two front slots along opposite edges of the front panel, the front panel comprising a hole near each corner of the front panel;
- a back panel comprising two back slots along opposite edges of the back panel, the back panel comprising a hole near each corner of the back panel, wherein the front slots and back slots align and the holes in the corners of the front and back panels align;
- a plurality of openings positioned along the edges of the front and back panels without the front and back slots, the openings configured to accommodate connectors for accessories;
- a side panel sized to fold into a gap between the front panel and the back panel, the side panel comprising a hole near each corner of the side panel;
- and
- a pivot coupling positioned in a hole of the side panel, the pivot coupling slidably coupled to a pair of aligned front and the back slots of the two of front and back slots,
- wherein the corner of the side panel slidably moves along the pair of aligned front and back slots via the pivot coupling, and
- wherein the side panel is movable from a stowed position in the gap to an open position to the side of the front and back panels by rotating the side panel and moving the pivot coupling along the pair of aligned front and back slots.
An apparatus comprising:
- a front panel comprising a front slot along an edge of the front panel;
- a back panel fixedly coupled to the front panel, the back panel comprising a back slot along an edge of the back panel, wherein the front slot and back slot align;
- a side panel configured to fold into a gap between the front panel and the back panel;
- a pivot coupling at a corner of the side panel, the pivot coupling slidably coupled to the front and the back slots, wherein the corner of the side panel slidably moves along the front and back slots via the pivot coupling and wherein the side panel is movable from a stowed position in the gap to an open position to the side of the front and back panels by rotating the side panel and moving the pivot coupling along the front and back slots;
- at least two anchor couplings extending through the front and back panels, each anchor coupling positioned near a corner of the front and back panels, wherein at least one anchor coupling of the at least two anchor couplings is positioned at an end of and in line with the front and back slots;
- a first anchor slot positioned near a corner of the side panel comprising the pivot coupling, the first anchor slot configured to slide over the anchor coupling while the side panel is in the stowed position;
- and
- a second anchor slot positioned in an edge of the side panel opposite the edge of the side panel comprising the pivot coupling, the second anchor slot configured to slide over the anchor coupling and to fix the side panel with respect to the front and back panels when the side panel is in the open position.
