Refurbishing panel system for space divider partition walls

A refurbishing panel assembly for face attachment to an existing space divider partition wall including spaced parallel recessed hanger support means accessible through parallel openings in said partition wall, said refurbishing panel assembly comprising a plurality of edge abutting refurbishing panels, each refurbishing panel comprising:

• an open rectangular frame including horizontal top and bottom extrusions, laterally opposed vertical side extrusions and molded corner blocks fixedly coupling respective ends of the extrusions and forming an open rectangular frame, said extrusions being identical in cross-section, including a flat, rear wall, an outer flat, parallel front wall integrally joined to the rear wall by a right angle inner end wall, an integral outer end wall extending from said front wall at least to said rear wall and obliquely away from the inner end wall and defining with said front wall, rear and inner end wall a trapazoidal shaped cavity therebetween, the front and rear walls of said extrusions having free end portions extending beyond the inner end wall to the side remote from the outer end wall and forming an inner peripheral groove, a rectangular plan configured board sized to said open frame and having peripheral edges captured within respective inner peripheral grooves of said extrusions, a fabric sheet covering the front face of the board and having peripheral edges thereof wrapped about the oblique outer wall of the extrusions and fixed to the rear wall of the frame extrusions, thereby forming a lightweight refurbishing panel having obliquely tapered edges about the sides thereof, the overall width of the refurbishing panel being equal to the lateral width of the space divider partition wall to be covered, hanger means fixedly mounted to the rear of the multiple refurbishing panels of said refurbishing panel assembly and extending commonly between said multiple refurbishing panels at positions corresponding to said recessed hanger support means, and including hooks projectable through said openings in said partition wall for commonly supporting said refurbishing panels of said refurbishing panel assembly in facing contact with and overlying a surface of said space divider partition wall.
