Abstract:
A carrier for mounting linear panels on a ceiling, the carrier extending in a longitudinal direction and having at least one recess formed therein, the recess being for receiving a linear ceiling panel, the recess extending through the cross-section of the carrier, the recess being defined by a surface comprising at least a first wall portion and a second wall portion, the recess separating the first wall portion from the second wall portion, and the second wall portion, defining a flange which partially extends into the recess, thereby providing the recess with a neck portion and a main portion, and wherein the neck portion has, at its narrowest point, a distance d1 of less than 9 mm separating the first wall portion from the second wall portion.

Claim (Index 8):
A linear ceiling panel mounting system comprising at least one carrier for mounting linear panels on a ceiling, the carrier extending in a longitudinal direction and having at least one recess formed therein, the recess being for receiving a linear ceiling panel, the recess extending through the cross-section of the carrier, the recess being defined by a surface comprising at least a first wall portion and a second wall portion, the recess separating the first wall portion from the second wall portion, and the second wall portion defining a flange which extends at least partially into the recess, thereby providing the recess with a neck portion and a main portion, and wherein the neck portion has, at its narrowest point, a distance d 1  separating the first wall portion from the second wall portion, the linear ceiling panel mounting system further comprising a linear ceiling panel having a flexible, resilient flange which extends along the whole or part of an edge of the panel, the flange being configured to slot into the recess of the carrier and be retained therein to thereby attach the linear ceiling panel to the carrier, and wherein the distance di is approximately three-quarters to two times the combined thickness of the flange and that part of the panel adjacent the flange.
