Foldable enclosure members joined by hinged I-beam
An enclosure member for a building structure comprising a planar laminate having a first facing layer; a layer of foam having a first face and a second opposing face; and a second facing layer; where the first facing layer is fastened to the first face of the layer of foam, and the second facing layer is fastened to the second opposing face of the layer of foam. An edge of the enclosure is provided with a perimeter structure that can perform one or more of a sealing function, an edge reinforcement function and a pivotable joining function with another enclosure, in accordance with the particular embodiment.
Self-aligning modular connector
A modular connector is disclosed that comprises of a middle-plate, a plurality of sectioned-base-plates, and a plurality of locking-plates. The middle-plate and the plurality of sectioned-base-plates have a plurality of slotted holes to enable faster construction and deal with construction tolerances efficiently. Also, a plurality of grooved surfaces on the sectioned-base-plate and the locking-plate provide a system so that bolted-connected modules do not slide and remain at initially its aligned position. Disclosed is also a method for assembling a modular building.
MISSION CONFIGURABLE SHELTER WITH ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE (EMI) PROTECTION
A portable shelter with electromagnetic interference (EMI) protection includes a plurality of walls that define an interior space. The walls can be fixed or movable. An EMI protected edge connector joins at least two of the walls together. The EMI protected edge connector assembly can be fixed or hinged. The edge connector can include a metallic outer edge member with two legs and a separate metallic inner edge member with two legs to define an edge channel therebetween with: (i) the first outer leg and the first inner leg are arranged parallel and spaced-apart relative to each other; and (ii) the second outer leg and the second inner leg arranged parallel and spaced-apart relative to each other. The shelter walls can include an inner surface covered by a metallic foil inner layer. A first wall panel is received in a first portion of the edge channel with its metallic foil inner layer contacting the inner edge member and a second wall panel is received in a second portion of the edge channel with it metallic foil inner layer contacting the inner edge member.
PORTABLE SEGMENTABLE/EXPANDABLE MODULE STRUCTURES
A modular enclosure structure having at least three walls and comprised of at least three elongated posts selected from at least two elongated upright/vertical posts. Each post has a longitudinal hollow a flexible and durable compacted sheet material therein and wherein a narrow longitudinal through-slot aligned with the free end of each of the compacted sheet materials. Sheet material in each hollow is able to be externally drawn and retracted with manipulation of the free end. The free end of each sheet material has a latching member attached to either an elongated upright/vertical post member, having at least two latching members or to the two elongated posts having hollows and also cooperative latching members, wherein walls of sheet material are externally drawn from the posts with compacted sheet material to form an enclosure comprising at least three walls of sheet material.
Foldable shelter pod and method for preparing a foldable shelter pod
In one aspect of the invention, a foldable shelter pod is provided herein including: a top; a bottom; first and second foldable end walls; first and second foldable side walls; and, a plurality of mountable corner panels. The walls are each adjustable from an initial flat folded state to a use state where an obtuse angle is internally subtended. In the use state, first, second, third, and fourth corner openings are defined between adjacent pairs of end walls and side walls. The corner panels are mountable in the first, second, third, and fourth corner openings to brace the foldable shelter pod in an erected state.
Compactible and foldable Drop shop building
A portable building formed from transportation containers that are unloaded and connected together to form modular building units. The building units have roof parts that unfold to connect to one another, to form a building, with openings, and with a roof, sized according to a number of modular units that have been attached together.
Reinforcing structure for modular building construction
Modular building units comprise, prior to installation at a construction site, a floor, a ceiling, and a plurality of walls which together define a habitable interior, wherein at least one wall is a reinforced wall capable of spanning a spanning distance of at least 50 feet without underlying support. In some embodiments, reinforced walls comprise one or more reinforcing structures. In some embodiments, the spanning distance is at least 60 feet; in some, at least 70 feet; and in some, at least 80 feet. In a further aspect, a method of building construction comprises the steps of: a) constructing a modular building unit according to the present disclosure at an assembly site; b) transporting the modular building unit to a construction site; and c) installing the modular building unit at the construction site, optionally across a unsupported span of at least 50 feet.
Perimeter Structures for Joining Abutting Enclosure Components
An enclosure member for a building structure comprising a planar laminate having a first facing layer; a layer of foam having a first face and a second opposing face; and a second facing layer; where the first facing layer is fastened to the first face of the layer of foam, and the second facing layer is fastened to the second opposing face of the layer of foam. An edge of the enclosure is provided with a perimeter structure that can perform one or more of a sealing function, an edge reinforcement function and a pivotable joining function with another enclosure, in accordance with the particular embodiment.
Prefabricated, movable, photosensitive, solar landscape pavilion capable of being disassembled and constructed quickly
The disclosure relates to a prefabricated movable photosensitively adjustable solar bionic landscape pavilion capable of being disassembled and constructed quickly. The landscape pavilion comprises a support structure, a ceiling, a movable platform, a linkage system, a lighting system, and an energy system. The support structure is arranged at the center of the movable platform and forms large-area shelter space with the ceiling. The ceiling may rotate around the support structure in the height direction of the support structure, so as to be unfolded or folded. The movable platform is a base of the landscape pavilion, undertakes the support structure and the ceiling above the movable platform, and meanwhile, provides fixing space for the linkage system, the lighting system, and the energy system.
