ABSTRACT:
A floating connector system is provided for airtight sealing between a ceiling structure and a wall structure. The connector system comprises an elongate channel member which has a generally U-shaped cross section. The elongate channel member is attached to the ceiling structure such that the elongate channel member is supported by the ceiling structure and forms a continuous, airtight seal with the ceiling structure. An elongate cap member is attached to the wall structure to form the top edge of the wall structure. The cap member is received within the elongate channel member, with the sides of the cap member being spaced in flatwise orientation from the sides of said channel member. A pair of elongate, elastomeric seal members are positioned between the respective sides of the cap member and the channel member. The seal members make an airtight seal between the cap member and the channel member, and the cap member and associated wall structure are effectively isolated from transmission of vibration from the ceiling structure.
