Description:TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates generally to the field of interior designs. More particularly, the proposed disclosure relates to one or more partition elements dividing a closed space into varying floor areas either sides based on the requirements without affecting the security aspects.

BACKGROUND
[0002] Sliding French windows/doors and partition walls are regularly used to divide spaces such as balconies and living spaces or within living spaces. In general, the frames in which the doors and windows slides are fixed to the walls and ceiling and sliding of window/doors divide on either side of the sliding French windows/doors and partitions remain fixed. Nonetheless, as users seek more flexibility and re-configurability of space, it is desirable that the entire sliding French window/door frame of the partition wall should move in the transverse direction allowing variable division of the space as required.
[0003] Further, offices often use collapsible partition walls to configure individual work stations to maximise space. Sliding doors/window is a popular method to utilise full space of a room. But, still user wish to have more and more space vis-à-vis keeping other structures like balconies attached to the rooms. This crated a necessity to think beyond to device ways for utilising every inch of space.
[0004] There are many prior arts disclosing sliding window/doors on a fixed frame saving their opening/closing space. Patent document US7610718B2 discloses a sliding door with lateral sealing movement is secured to one side of a wall of partition panel having door opening, and includes a trolley that is held in a track located above the door opening. The wheels or rollers of the trolley move along the track when the door is moved to a closed position until the roller contacts a wedge or ramp associated with the track. The wedge urges the roller inwardly towards the wall or partition panel, such that when the door is in the fully closed position, the trolley is positioned inwardly on the track to move the upper area of the door into engagement with the wall or portion panel. The lower end of the door includes a channel within which is positioned a follower attached to a swing arm, which simultaneously draws the lower end of the door into engagement with the wall or panel.
[0005] Another Patent document EP4092364A1 discloses a partition wall of a storage comprises a wall element with a framework and a liftable wall element and side elements. The liftable wall element is arranged between the side elements and fastened to the upper element. The partition wall arrangement further comprises a horizontal beam in connection with both side elements. The beams are parallel to each other and transverse to the wall element.
[0006] While the cited references discloses a sliding door with lateral sealing movement over a track, and a partition wall with a framework and a liftable wall element, none of the prior art discloses a partition wall moving transverse to the wall element to have variable space on two side, which can be altered as per user’s requirements. Therefore, to address the drawbacks and limitation, it would be better to provide a solution to the problem by configuring a frame facilitating partition of the room space as per the requirements without affecting the security aspects.
[0007] There is, therefore, a need in the art to provide a simple, cost-efficient, and practical solution where the one or more partition elements can divide an internal space of a room on either side of the partition element as per requirement, without compromising the security aspect.

OBJECTS OF THE DISCLOSURE
[0008] A general object of the present disclosure is to provide partition element to divide a closed space on either side of the partition element into varying areas.
[0009] An object of the present disclosure is to provide a simple, practicable, and cost-efficient solution to divide an internal space by sliding the partition elements using manual or motorised mechanisms.
[0010] Another object of the present disclosure is to provide scope for using the embodiment in different places including office, store area, garage, hall, and a room.
[0011] Another object of the present disclosure is to provide the partition elements in one or more parts.
[0012] Another object of the present disclosure is to provide sliding of the two partition elements singly or jointly in transverse direction to the wall of the closed space.

[0042] In an embodiment, the partition element can be a single element or multiple elements, and the multiple partition elements are configured in pair along with one or more overlapping lockable lap joint. The partition elements can move singly or jointly in transverse direction to the frame. The first position to the second position is limited to a distance ‘D’ measured between the inner side of the pair of the vertical elements of the frame fixed on the at least one wall
[0043] In an embodiment, at least one handle is coupled to the T-section to apply force for sliding, and the force applied for sliding the at least one partition element is selected as manual force or a moving mechanism.
[0044] In an embodiment, the closed space can be selected at least one from a room, a hall, a garage configured within a premise, wherein the partition element is selected at least one from a door, and a window.
[0045] Referring to FIG. 1 where an exemplary assembly 100 including a frame 400 and a single partition element 200 is shown. The assembly 100 with the partition element 200 for a closed space can include at least one frame 400 rigidly fixed on walls opposite to each other in the closed space.
[0046] In an embodiment, the frame 400 can have one or more rail elements 102 on the base and the top member of the frame 400 for providing slide movement to the partition element 200. The partition element 200 forms a T-shaped end when coupled with the frame 400 through a flange, and the partition element 200 is configured with one or more rollers to slide on the respective rail element 102 along the wall and transverse to the frame 400 without altering their basic functions. The basic function includes the security aspect, the visibility/concealment with the outer space etc.

FIG. 1 depicts two T-sections 206-1 and 206-2. The handle 104 is located near the partition element 200 for holding and applying manual force for sliding the partition element 200 to divide the floor of the closed surface. The position of handle 104 is selected such that the centre of gravity (CG) is closer to the wall.
[0049] In an embodiment, the force applied for sliding the at least one partition element 200 is selected as manual force or a moving mechanism. The moving mechanism may include a gear box moved manually or by electric motor, depending upon the requirement of the force applied, which further depends on the size of the partition element 200.
[0050] In an embodiment, when the partition element is required to be moved, moves transverse to the frame 400 in the direction of the force applied, through the movement of the one or more rollers 600 on each of the one or more rail elements 102 from a first position to a second position. This divides the floor of the closed space on either side.
[0051] In an embodiment, the lower part 202-3 of the structure 204 of partition elements 200 may be configured with castor wheels to roll over the floor for better support while moving the partition element 200 in the transverse direction.
