Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a voting booth assembly. In particular, the present disclosure relates to a voting booth assembly comprising at least one extendable panel adapted for positioning the extendable panel adjacent a substantially planar structure to define a voting compartment between the extendable panel and the substantially planar structure. The voting booth is operable between a collapsed state and an expanded state, thereby providing a temporary voting booth for use as a private area within the polling station for voters to cast their vote when otherwise-used facilities act as a polling station, and which can be easily assembled and/or disassembled for ease of transport and storage during times when the facility does not act as a polling station.
Claims14
A voting booth assembly comprising at least one extendable panel, operable between a collapsed position and an extended position, wherein the at least one extendable panel comprises first and second sections adapted for relative slidable reciprocal motion, wherein the first section is a generally planar section, and the second section is generally planar and adapted to receive the first section;
- and wherein, in the collapsed state, the first section is received within the second section and adapted for positioning the extendable panel adjacent a substantially planar structure to define a voting compartment between the extendable panel and the substantially planar structure;
- wherein the at least one extendable panel further comprises a shelf pivotably mountable to the at least one extendable panel, and the shelf is operable between an engaged position and a retracted position.
