Abstract:
A barrier for the inside of a home. The barrier includes two partitions that slide relative to each other to increase and decrease a distance between ends of the barrier. The partitions slide into and out of confronting relationships with each other. The partitions engage each other at upper and lower locations and further at a medial location where an elongate member of one partition is received in a tube engaged to the other partition. A threaded piece upon being turned brings pressure to bear upon an end of the tube such that the partitions can be incrementally expanded apart and thereby pressurized between two locations within the home so as to block off one portion of the home. The threaded piece is slideable along the elongate member.

Claim (Index 1):
A mechanism comprising:\n a) an elongate member engaged between a first object and a second object and being disposed in a length direction, the elongate member having elongate member locations; and b) a slidable piece on the elongate member and being slidable on the elongate member in the length direction, the slidable piece having a first portion and a second portion; c) the first portion being engagable to the elongate member at the elongate member locations; d) the second portion having a threaded member turnable thereon, the threaded member having an end confronting the second object and being turnable to confront the second object, the threaded member being turnable to and from the first portion in the length direction and thus being turnable to and from the second object in the length direction; e) such that when the threaded member is turned on the second portion to confront the second object and when the first portion is engaged at one of the elongate member locations, the threaded member brings pressure to bear upon the second object and draws the first and second objects apart in opposite directions along the length direction such that ends of the first and second objects are incrementally drawn apart.
