ABSTRACT:
A cabinet includes a rigid housing having an opening at the forward side thereof with vertical guide tracks defined at opposite sides of the opening. A roller subassembly is mounted in the upper portion of the housing over the opening and is driven in rotation about a horizontal axis by a motor. A segmented glass curtain made up of contiguous, elongated, parallel glass slats of rectangular configuration closes the opening in the housing. Each glass slat is supported in metal corner brackets interconnected so that adjacent longitudinal edges of adjacent slats are in close proximity, and the slat ends project into the guide tracks. Flexible cables interconnect the corner brackets to maintain the spacial relationship of the slats. Ends of the cables are connected to the roller subassembly and the curtain is rolled up on the roller subassembly to open the opening in the housing.
