Customizable Transportable Structures and Components Therefor
A wall component and other components for a building structure wherein the wall component has a spanning beam spanning the length of the wall component, one or more structural column assemblies positioned between the spanning beam and a floor plate which are structured to carry structural weights and loads received from the spanning beam. The structural column assemblies are separated by a longitudinal distance so as to define an intercolumnar region which is greater than a width of a member selected from the group consisting of a door assembly and a window assembly, and there is an exterior panel fastened between the first and second structural column assemblies that defines a generally continuous and uninterrupted planar surface over the intercolumnar region.
MODULAR FURNITURE SYSTEM
A modular framework having a plurality of elongate structural members interconnected by brackets is provided. Each of the brackets includes at least one tubular socket to receive a structural member, and an array of holes is provided on a face of the socket to permit connection of an attachment to the bracket to support ancillary components.
Pyramidal housing autonomous and suitable for different environmental conditions
Pyramidal housing autonomous and suitable for different environmental conditions. Its pyramidal structure (1) is made up of metal profiles (10) that include corner pillars (10a), side pillars (10b), beams or cross structures of mezzanine (17)(19) and rafters that form the openings (4), being the pillars anchored to the foundation beam (13); over this structure, the outer covers (15) that form the pyramidal walls (15a) are mounted; in the blind sections of the outer cover (15) of the upper floor there are mounting supports (32) for arrangements of solar panels (30), while at the apex (12) there is a wind energy generator; other blind sectors allow the mounting of a solar heater (50).
CONSTRUCTION SYSTEM FOR A BUILDING MODULE
The present invention concerns a construction system for a building module, whose main elements are made of plastic material, providing a robust construction in an easy and quick manner. The system includes a set of main beams (1) adapted to be assembled end-to-end to form an open structure in the shape of a 3-dimensional rectangular frame. The system further includes secondary beams (11), adapted to be assembled between parallel and opposite main beams, and flat facade elements (3) insertable against each other between two adjacent parallel beams. Each facade element (3) includes a rectangular flat plate provided with two folded opposite edges (3A) intended to be hooked with adjacent parallel beams. Each main beam has a rectangular cross-section including, on the four sides thereof, a projection (21) parallel to the side and spaced therefrom leaving an opening to receive a folded edge of a flat facade element. Each secondary beam (11) includes, on two opposite faces, at least one projection leaving an opening to receive a folded edge of a flat facade element (3).
Adjustable wall and floor system
An room assembly that expands the interior space in a vehicle. The room assembly comprises an expandable room comprising an adjustable floor panel component, an adjustable wall panel component, and a track system for moving the adjustable floor panel component and the adjustable wall panel component between a nested and an expanded position. The track system comprises a corner component comprising a floor engaging plate, a wall engaging plate connected to the floor engaging plate, and a rail extending from both plates.
DATA PROCESSING EQUIPMENT STRUCTURE
A data processing equipment structure includes a plurality of vertical and horizontal frame components, which, together, define an equipment structure frame, and a plurality of panels disposed relative to the equipment structure frame to define a periphery. At least one of the plurality of vertical and horizontal frame components is an extruded strut having a generally uniform cross-section. The extruded strut includes an outwardly-facing channel extending along each of a pair of opposing sides of the extruded strut, at least one of which includes a set of evenly-spaced ridges, extending along each of two sides of the channel, for accommodating a threaded fastener. The extruded strut further includes one or more ledges, each having a depth sufficient to accommodate a thickness of one of the plurality of panels.
