Assembling Negative Pressure Isolation Chamber
The invention discloses an assembly type negative pressure isolation chamber, in which the necessary configuration of the negative pressure isolation ward is contained in a hexahedral chamber. The chamber forms an independent building assembly unit, which can be integrated into or removed from the building system. The chamber can also be disassembled and transported, and the switching of use functions can be realized through the flexible combination and simple modification of components. The indoor wall of the chamber is light Clean and washable materials are integrated with furniture. The air conditioning system adopts internal circulation return air and independent temperature regulating device. The sewage pre disinfection link is added to the sewage system. The negative pressure isolation chamber can help the medical isolation building system expand rapidly in case of respiratory infectious disease outbreak and can carry out space mobility with the transfer of the epidemic situation.
Article and method for constructing, deconstructing and reconstructing temporary structures
Provided herewith is a system for assembling a temporary structure using a plurality of separate members. A first member has ends at opposite sides of an elongated body portion, with notches on the top and bottom sides of each end. A second member has ends with notches formed on opposite between the ends. These notches enable the first and second members to engage with other such separate members. A third member has a triangular shape that functions as a roof truss with opposing sloped surfaces and an underside. A pair of truss notches is formed at positions corresponding to the notches of the first member, for each engaging with one of the plurality of separate members. The third member also includes feature hooks, formed on the sloped surfaces, for engaging with a fourth member defined by a planar roofing material having a plurality of holes.
Locating pin assembly for a modular frame
A locating pin assembly for coupling a first modular frame to a second modular frame is disclosed. The locating pin assembly has a first gusset plate positioned between the first modular frame and the second modular frame. The first gusset plate has a first gusset plate aperture and a second gusset plate aperture for receiving fastening means for coupling the first-modular-frame-first-beam and the second-modular-frame-first-beam the gusset plate. The pin assembly also has a pin engaging the first gusset plate, the first modular frame and the second modular frame. Also disclosed are modular frame units having the pin assembly, system of modular frame units having the pin assembly and a method of coupling modular frame units.
MODULAR FOLDABLE BUILDING SYSTEM AND METHOD
This invention provides a modular folding building structure having at least one room unit assembled from two foldable modules that are coupled together and a roof. Room units can be used singly or ganged together to form multiroom structures. Each room unit has a floor that may include floor panels or floor planks supported by a floor frame. The walls on each foldable module are connected to a base with hinges, such that each room module has a storage position in which the walls are folded down parallel to the floor. Each module also has an erect position in which the walls are unfolded to a vertical orientation perpendicular to the floor by rotating a wall around the hinges. The walls may be solid with wall panels and appropriate openings for doors, windows, and in-wall air-conditioning. Alternatively, the walls may be substantially openings.
StaxMax Smooth Cube
The StaxMax Smooth Cube is a puzzle that can assemble secure structures with flat surfaces without tools. It is a puzzle, the purpose of which is to disassemble the cube and assemble it together with other cubes into smooth structures. The Invention does this with a skeletal piece into which other panel pieces are assembled to form a smooth flat cube. The assembled smooth flat cube is locked shut with a snapping mechanism inside the cube that is activated with a magnet through the firm outer flat surface of the cube. The smooth cubes are unlocked and disassembled with the magnets of other smooth cubes. The panel pieces that snap into the backbone piece to form a smooth flat cube also serve to secure the flat cube to other flat cubes when they are disassembled and assembled.
Modular building component
An exemplary modular building component disclosed herein includes at least three side walls connected to each other to form a frame structure having an open exterior end and an open interior end, in various aspects. Each of the side walls includes a mating inner structural wall and an outer pivoting wall, in various aspects. The structural wall and the pivoting wall each include a top end and a bottom end, wherein the pivoting wall bottom end is adapted to pivotably engage the structural wall bottom end, in various aspects. A tautened fabric material covers the frame structure exterior end and is secured to each pivoting wall, in various aspects. The fabric is tautened over the frame structure exterior end as each pivoting wall top end is pivoted into abutment with its mating structural wall top end, in various aspects. Related methods are disclosed.

Modular multi-container housing structure, multi-container interlock, and methods for manufacture of same
A modular multi-container housing structure connector for containers, which each have sides including a roof, a floor, and four lateral sides, includes a connector frame comprising vertical and horizontal struts shaped to connect to at least one of the sides of two adjacent containers and at least one interlock configured to secure the connector frame to the side of one container. The at least one interlock may be a plurality of interlocks. The connector frame may comprise two vertical struts and two horizontal struts each shaped and configured to connect to a respective edge of an adjacent side of two adjacent containers and, responsive to the connector frame being connected to two adjacent sides of two adjacent containers by the plurality of interlocks, the connector frame and interlocks form a container-to-connector frame-to-container connection to establish a weather-tight housing structure with the two or multiple connected containers.
FRAGMENT-, OVERPRESSURE-, RADIATION-, AND TOXIC-RESISTANT EMERGENCY SAFETY SHELTER
A modular safety shelter provides protection from fragment, overpressure, radiation, and toxic hazards through a combination of physical design of modular segments, of joint seals between modular segments, of door assemblies, and of HVAC control systems. The modular shelter is formed of two or more prefabricated concrete modular segments each including a built-in foundation, roof, and side walls, and a prefabricated concrete vestibule segment providing an airlock-like access to the shelter. The prefabricated modular segments and vestibule segment are transported to a site and assembled to each other on-site to provide a fully enclosed space within the modular shelter. A multi-layer joint seal is formed between adjacent modular segments to prevent ingress of toxic, flammable, or thermal hazards. An integrated HVAC controller monitors toxic or flammable hazards outside and inside of the shelter, and controls HVAC systems to minimize spread of contaminants upon detecting a hazard.
