Abstract

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE

A system for carriage of a shelter such as a garage in erected form with a trailer or truck adapted to readily mount and carry such shelter on it such that the truck or trailer may be conveniently used to carry loads on a work site; the shelter forms a garage for the trailer or truck, and the latter is also used to readily move the shelter or garage to another site whenever desired. The trailer includes laterally extending arms to engage under the lateral sills of the shelter and the latter has a front wall with portions folding away for the passage of the arms upon loading and unloading of the shelter on the trailer or truck.

Description

~S~36 FIELD UF THE IN~ENTION
This invention relates to a sy~t~m for tha carriage of an srected shelter such as a garage or the like buildincg ano in parti-cular to a shelter csrriage system of the type including a vehicle particularly adapted to form a carrier for such building and including also a shelter aciapted to bs so carrir~d.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART
To our knowledge~ thers have not bean propossd horstofore a shelter carriage systam of the above type. Ths trailers or trucks that hava been proposed before wsre not adapted to carry a shelter in srected form on them and the shélters or buildings were not specifically made to be carried in erected form.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It is a general object of the prssent inuention to provide a shslter carriage systsm of the above typs; that is, wherein a truck or trailer and the ~helter are cooperatively constructed and arrangHd to readily carry a shel-ter in erected Form.
It is an object of the present inuention tD provids a trailer or truck particularly adaptscl to carry an srr~cted shelter without dismantling it.
Ib is a furthsr objsc-t of the present invention to prouide a shslter carriage systsm of the above type wherein the truck or trailer may be used to carry parts, tools9 and/or materials on a work site and the shelter is made to form a garags for the trailer or truck to rsadily protect its load against bad wsathsr and whsrein ths trailer or truck may sngage under the shelter and carry it to another work site.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION Of THE DRAWINGS
The above and other objects and aclvantages of the presant inuention will be better ~mderstood with reference to the following detailed d0scription of a preferred smbodiment therrof which is
- 2 -~.~ S3~3~

illustrated~ by way oF exampls~ in th~ accompanying drawings;
in which:
Figure 1 is a sids elsvation view of a shsltsr carriags systsrn according to ths prsssnt invention and including a trailer and a garags operatively mountsd on it;
Figure 2 is a sids elsvation visw showing ths mods of unloading th~ garage upon removal of the trail~r from under it;
Figurs 3 is a sids slevation viaw of ths garags in fully installsd position on a work sits;
Figurs 4 is a front visw of ths shaltar carriags syst~m, as sssn from the right in Figure l;
Figure 5 is a transvsrss cross ssction through ons latsral sill of the garage with the same installed on blocks on ths work site; and Figurs 6 is a similar transverse cross section as in Figure 5 bu-t shuwing the lateral sill in carried position on roll~rs and a lat~ral arm of the trailer~

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRE~ EMO~IMENT
Ths illustrated sheltsr or garags carriage syst~m comprises a garags 10 and a trailer 11 adapt0d to carry it~
Th~ garags 10 includss opposite sids walls 12, a rQof 13~
a rsar wall 14, and a front wall at 15~ Ths latter is formad with an entrancs aperturs 16 of appropriate size for sntrancs of the trailer 11 in the garags lOo The front wall 15 also includss a curtain 17 of any foldabls matsrial such as canvas on each side of the sntrance aparturs 16. ~hen the curtains 17 ars rollsd up as on ths right in Figure 4, the Antrancs aperture is thus widened laterally the full width of the garage 10.
An H shape metal extrusion member 18 is fix~d with its web flat against ths bottom sdgs uf each sids wall 12 to form a down-wardly opsning longitudinal groove in which is rstained a latsral sill 19 of circular cross ssction~ The garags 10 is op~ratively 3Y,~

in~tall~d on blocks 20 ~paced undsr th0 lateral 9ill 19.
Curtain or skirt~ 21 are fixedly attached along ths lower edge o~ each ~ida w~ll 12 and oper~tlvely deployed to form a wind0croen trsn~vsrsely undar the lat~ral sills lg.
Ths trailer 11 comprises a vehicle body including mainly a rectangular box 22 having a pair o~ side walls 23. Lateral arms 24 ara pivoted at one end to the lowsr edge portion of each side wall 23 and are spaced apart one from anuther along those side wall~. The armR 24 are thus pivoted about a longitudinal axis. ThH outer end of each lateral arm 24 rotstably carries a pair of roller~ 25 that rollingly engage under the corrssponding lateral sill 19. Each roller 25 i~ peripherally grooved with a tran~versaly-rounded pro~ile comple~entary to the transu~rse profile of the lateral sill 19. A
cabl~ 26 i8 attached at a lower end each to a corre~ponding arm 24 at an upp~r end at the top of tha c~rresponding ~ide wall 23. A cable length adjusting device 27 is preferably serially att~chod to each cabla 26. Each device 27 i8 preferably a hydraulic rylinder and piston unit with an ind0pendent hydraulic control circuit oparated by tho driver of tha trailer truGk.
The box 22 uf the trailer 11 i8 u~ed to carry any desirod load on a wnrk ~ite and to the work site. Su~h load can, for instance, be parts, tools or materials required for a projsct. The garage 10 is u~ed as a ~imple garaga ~ftsr its installation on a site. Then, the lateral sill~ 19 re~t un block~ 20. The garage is carried sway by succes~ively engaging the rollers 25 under the lateral sills 19, while successi~ely rsmoving ths blocks 20.
When the garage ha~ reached a new site for ita instal-lation, the trailar is slowly driven out of th~ garage while blocks 20 are si~ultaneously plac~d under th~ lataral sills to ~upport th~
garag~ when itR load i8 Rhifted on them rather than on the arm~ 24 snd roller~ 25.

Salectiva operation of the hydraulic cylinder and piston units 27 permits to rais~ ~nd law0r portion~ o~ the gsrage within curtain llmitR during transfer o~ the garage betwe~n rollers 25 and block~ 20 and to raiss or io~sr ths entire garage or portion th~reoP
during its traneport over rough ground in order to clear obstacl0s.
Whan only the trailer 11 i3 hauled by the trailer truck over a regular road, the arms 24 are attached in elsvated verticsl position along ~ide walls 23.
