A retractable module includes a pair of bases spaced apart and a tube positioned between the bases. The tube is configured to rotate about its center axis relative to the bases. The retractable module includes a latch including one or more prongs. The latch is configured to move between a release position and a fixed position. The retractable module includes a first spring configured to urge the tube to rotate in a first direction. The first spring includes a first end and a second end. The first end being fixed to one base of the bases, and the second end being fixed to the tube. The retractable module further includes a sheet wrapped around the tube. The sheet is configured to unwrap from around the tube as the tube rotates in the second direction and wrap around the tube as the tube rotates in the first direction.
