Abstract
A wall structure to be used as a partition, screen or the like comprises a plurality of panels with vertical edges attached to resilient profiles of the same or lesser height having strip portions which are substantially cylindrically curved over an arc of slightly more than 180.degree., these curved portions being peripherally interconvoluted about a common vertical axis forming the intersection of the vertical longitudinal midplanes of all the panels. The tubular hinge formed by the interconvoluted portions is immobilizable, in any relative angular position of the panels, by expandable plugs inserted into it from opposite ends.

An adjustable wall structure comprising:
- a plurality of upright panels;
- a plurality of resilient upright profiles respectively secured to said panels at vertical edges thereof, said profiles having resilient strip portions substantially cylindrically curved about a common vertical axis in peripherally interconvoluted relationship, thereby forming a tubular hinge interconnecting said panels with freedom of relative swinging about said axis;
- and
- clamp means engaging said tubular hinge for relatively immobilizing said strip portions in face-to-face contact with one another.
