`‘366 Patent, Claim 1
`
`[a]
`
`1. An article of flexible furniture having
`a core formed from a plurality of laminar panels of a flaccid material and
`each panel having a pair of oppositely directed major faces, adjacent
`faces of said panels being inter-connected to provide a cellular structure
`upon movement of abutting faces away from each other,
`a pair of supports at opposite ends of said core and connected to
`[b]
`respective ones of said faces, said supports being self-supporting to
`provide rigidity to said core whereby said supports may be moved apart
`to expand said cellular structure and extend the length of said core and
`flexible so as to be foldable into a tubular configuration about an axis
`parallel to said major faces, and
`a plurality of fasteners on each of said supports to secure said supports
`[c]
`in said tubular configuration and to permit connection to an adjacent
`support of another similar article.

`
`2. A method for partitioning an area of a room, the method comprising:
`positioning an extensible wall in the area of said room, said wall having
`a base, a top, oppositely directed surfaces extending between said
`base and said top, said base, top and surfaces defining a core, said
`core comprising a cellular structure having multiple voids extending
`from said base to said top upon movement of said oppositely directed
`surfaces away from each other, said base having a width of at least 10
`centimeters and said core having a height of at least 1 meter;
`placing said base on a floor of said room, and
`[b]
`[c]
`moving opposite ends of said core apart to expand said cellular
`structure and extend the length of said core and to form at least a
`substantially straight freestanding wall configuration, whilst maintaining
`its vertical extent.
