ABSTRACT:
A folding partition comprising a plurality of folding panels hinged to each other and slidably suspended from a ceiling. A control plate is fixed adjacent the hinged folding panels and includes a plurality of first and second stops which extend therefrom. Every other folding panel includes a control member extending therefrom with each control member engageable with one of the first stops as the folding partition is folded to cause two adjacent folding panels to pivot about their connecting hinges. Each control member is abuttable against each second stop as the folding partition is opened to pivot adjacent said folding panels in an opposite direction. Each control member is connected to each associated folding panel at a different vertical location and each first and second stop associated with each control member is located at a different horizontal location on the control plate corresponding to the horizontal positions of their associated control members. Each of the first and second stops are also offset from each other in a horizontal direction corresponding to the width of the folding partition as it is folded.
