Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of mobile house, relate in particular to a kind of modular enclosure.
Background technology
In order to deposit various article, for example instrument, machine, lawn care apparatus, amusement equipment, sports apparatus, running stores etc. have used multiple mobile house.Traditional warehouse generally includes wall, door, ground and roof with mobile house.Typical warehouse usually comprises interconnective one or more parts with wall, door, ground and the roof of mobile house.To just constitute mobile house after these walls, door, ground and the roof installation.
A kind of warehouse mobile house of known type is a shed.Traditional shed has smaller structure usually, and this shed can independence or is attached to other structure, and shed is commonly used for warehouse and/or builder's temporary shed.The shortcoming of tradition shed is usually to need a large amount of time, labour, technology and effort when building and constructing shed.Traditional shed can comprise that one or more windows or gravity vent are so that light and air enter shed.Yet the window of a lot of traditional sheds or gravity vent often need a large amount of interconnective parts and are difficult to make and install.In addition, because many traditional sheds are difficult to or impossible dismounting or decomposition, so be difficult to these sheds are keeped in repair, revise, change or reset.Therefore, for many traditional sheds, it be moved or re-constructs normally unactual or be difficult to carry out.
Traditional shed is constructed with timber usually.Yet wooden shed is relatively heavy and need the plenty of time to construct and assemble.Specifically, wooden shed is connected to form many supporting beams, truss, sidewall and top board by a large amount of screws or bolt usually.These numerous parts have typically increased the cost of shed and constructed shed needs a large amount of time and effort.In addition, wooden shed can degenerate usually after long-time the use and need constant maintenance.For example, traditional wooden shed may damage or the phenomenon that other degenerates occurs when being exposed to natural environment because of weathering.In addition, timber may prying or rotten after long-time the use.In order to protect timber to avoid infringement, must periodically paint traditional shed, painted or other finishing.Yet disadvantageously, this can cause the obvious increase of maintenance cost.
Known shed can also be constructed with metal.For example, can construct the roof and the wall of conventional metals shed with metal sheet.The shortcoming of this structure is, metal sheet normally flexible and fragile.Specifically, the metal sheet wall can be impaired because of the external force that is applied on shed inwall or the outer wall.Specifically, it is undesirable inside or outwardly-bent that external force can cause that wall occurs, and opening can occur in some cases on wall.What considerable influence was arranged is that impaired metal sheet gets rusty easily or corrosion and impaired extremely difficult maintenance of metal sheet and replacing.In addition, traditional metal shed needs a lot of screws or bolt to assemble shed usually, and this can increase manufacturing cost and assembling required time of shed.And after long-time the use, particularly when being exposed to natural environment, the metal shed often has the tendency of getting rusty and wearing out.Therefore, must paint or take other to prevent that it from getting rusty or the measure of oxidation the metal shed.
The material that is used to construct traditional shed is very heavy and bulky usually.For example, the length of many traditional sheds is 8-12 feet (2.4-3.7 meters), and width is 8-12 feet (2.4-3.7 meters).Specifically, normally 8 feet * 8 feet (2.4 meters * 2.4 meters), 8 feet * 10 feet (2.4 meters * 3 meters) of known shed, 8 feet * 12 feet (2.4 meters * 3.7 meters), 10 feet * 12 feet (3 meters * 3.7 meters) or 12 feet * 12 feet (3.7 meters * 3.7 meters).Therefore, be used to construct the parts of these sheds normally elongated and also its length be 6 feet (1.8 meters) or more, and its width is 2 feet (0.6 meters) or bigger.Therefore, the size of many parts is big and heavy.In addition, if construct these parts with wood or metal, then these parts will be very heavy.Thereby the part dimension of traditional shed is big, be not easy to use, heavy and impracticable usually.
Because the physical dimension after traditional shed assembling is bigger, a lot of traditional shed all transports with the structure of non-assembling.Yet the weight of parts can produce huge freight, and these expenses all can add up when transporting at every turn or transporting shed.For example, can produce enormous expenditure when in manufacturer shed being transported to the retailer, this will be finally the have to expense paid of customer.Because the weight of packing case, many customers also must the more expense of payment when obtaining the shed of retailer's payment.In addition, do not make a lot of customers be unwilling maybe can't buy these traditional sheds owing to there being practical mode to transport shed back house.Specifically, a lot of customers can't remove or take apart the packing case of many traditional sheds.Specifically, the customer also may have to rent or use fork lifter and comes to unload shed from motor vehicle.Therefore, great expense and the difficulty in these transportations may hinder many potential customers to buy traditional shed.
Traditional shed also will be used very big and heavy chest transportation usually except being constructed by heavy and bulky material and parts.These huge transport cases can not be complementary with ordinary retail customer's motor vehicle usually.Therefore, the customer has to rent or use the motor vehicle such as truck, so that shed is transported back house.
Specifically, the width made by polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastics of transportation is that 10 feet (3 meters), length are that 8 feet (2.4 meters) and the chest length used when highly being traditional shed of 7 feet (2.1 meters) are that 96 inches (2.4 meters), width are 48 inches (1.2 meters) and highly be 36 inches (0.9 meters).Therefore, the volume of packing case is 96 cubic feet (2.7 cubic metres).The another kind of shed of constructing by blow-molded plastic and injection plastic, its width is that 7 feet (2.1 meters), length are 7 feet (2.1 meters) and highly be 8 feet (2.4 meters), and the length of used chest is that 78 inches (2 meters), width are 48 inches (1.2 meters) and highly be 32 inches (0.8 meters) during transportation.The volume of this packing case is 69.3 cubic feet (2 cubic metres).Also has a kind of known shed of constructing by the aluminium that rolls moulding compound and applied plastic, its width is that 7 feet (2.1 meters), length are 7 feet (2.1 meters) and highly be 8 feet 8 inches (2.6 meters), the length of used chest is that 100 inches (2.5 meters), width are 55 inches (1.4 meters) and highly be 50 inches (1.27 meters) during transportation, and the volume of this packing case is that 159.1 cubic feet (4.5 cubic metres) and the weight that comprises packing case are 540 pounds (245 kilograms).A kind of shed of being constructed by injection plastic is arranged again, its width is that 7 feet (2.1 meters), length are 7 feet (2.1 meters) and highly be 7.5 feet (2.3 meters), and the length of used chest is that 96 inches (2.4 meters), width are 48 inches (1.2 meters) and highly be 46 inches (1.17 meters) during transportation.The volume of this packing case is that about 69.3 cubic feet (1.9 cubic metres) and the weight that comprises packing case are 350 pounds (159 kilograms).The another kind of shed of constructing by blow-molded plastic, its width is that 7 feet (2.1 meters), length are 15.5 feet (4.7 meters) and highly be 6.5 feet (2 meters), the length of used chest is that 96 inches (2.4 meters), width are 48 inches (1.2 meters) and highly be 48 inches (1.2 meters) during transportation, and the volume of this packing case is that 128 cubic feet (3.6 cubic metres) and the weight that comprises packing case are 548 pounds (249 kilograms).Another kind of by rolling the shed that moulding compound is constructed, its width is that 5.5 feet (1.7 meters), length are 6 feet (1.8 meters) and highly be 6.5 feet (2 meters).This known shed is that 77 inches (1.96 meters), width are 38 inches (0.96 meters) and highly be that 12 inches (0.3 meters) and weight are 248 pounds (112 kilograms) in the length of used packing case of when transportation.The shed that another is constructed by the polypropylene of extrusion modling, its width are that 8 feet (2.4 meters), length are 6 feet (1.8 meters) and highly be 7 feet (2.1 meters).This shed is that 78 inches (2 meters), width are 30 inches (0.76 meters) and highly be that 33 inches (0.84 meters) and weight are 318 pounds (144 kilograms) in the length of used packing case of when transportation.The another kind of shed of being constructed by the ABS plastic of thermoforming, its width are that 8 feet (2.4 meters), length are 8 feet (2.4 meters) and highly be 6 feet (1.8 meters).This shed is that 66 inches (1.68 meters), width are 39.5 inches (1 meters) and highly be that 15 inches (0.38 meters) and weight are 325 pounds (147 kilograms) in the length of used packing case of when transportation.Therefore, the size of many known sheds and weight are all very big, and this makes its complex structure and increased freight.
Because traditional shed transports in the chest with large scale and large volume, so almost can't transport shed with standard delivery container or commercial trailer.Therefore, greatly increased each shed (for example, from supplier's to retailer) cost of transportation.And, owing to the shed of these packings weighs so greatly, so that many common carriers feel to be difficult to competent shed, thus refusal transportation shed.In addition, owing to the shed of many Traditional Packings so weighs greatly, so that must employ the shipping common carrier it is transported to the customer, this makes the charge that causes because of these heavinesses, huge and inconvenient chest even higher.In some cases, this price is too high really for consumers, thereby makes them think that the purchase shed is uneconomical.
Known warehouse is also constructed by various parts with irregularly shaped (awkwardly shaped) usually with shed, and these parts are difficult to transportation and impaired easily when transportation.In order to transport and protect these erose parts, need a large amount of packaging material.Yet packaging material occupy additional space when packing and packaging material have also increased cost of transportation.In addition, because that parts have is irregularly shaped, so transportation the time need use packaging material customized and this packaging material during transportation can be subjected to irremediable damage.Thereby packaging material can not be reused and can cause huge waste.In addition, also needing the plenty of time is that these irregular components of transportation are prepared, and has increased labor cost thus and has reduced production efficiency.At last, having erose parts needs bigger space usually, and this will increase the required overall space of transportation shed and correspondingly increase cost of transportation.
Traditional shed also often is made of the various interconnective parts that form a plurality of contacts or seam.The shortcoming of these structures is that seam or contact leak usually easily.For example, seam or contact can make water enter shed and water can damage the article that leave in the shed.
In addition, many sheds all can be subjected to the influence of various severe weather conditions, and some traditional sheds be not durable because of its constituent material or assemble bad can being damaged.For example, traditional shed can be subjected to the destruction of high wind.Known shed also has roof flat or that tilt a little, and this roof can accumulated snow.Disadvantageously, snow can damage the roof, and under opposite extreme situations, may cause the roof to cave in.Flat roof also makes water or other materials be deposited on the roof, and this can damage the roof and/or cause materials such as water to pass the roof and drain in the shed.
