BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWIN~3S
The present invention is illustrated by way of example in the following drawings wherein:
FIG. 1 shows a perspective elevational view of a booth according to the invention, with the door panels removed from a side of the booth;
FIG. 2 shows a side elevational perspective view of the inventive booth with the door panels mounted in the booth. for clo~3ing the same; and FIG. 3 shows a top plan cross-sectional view of the booth of the invention.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMElaTS
Now referring in detail to the drawings it may be seen from FIGS. 1-3 a shelter booth according to the invention and indicated by general reference 1. Booth 1 is comprised of a small and strong structure which in turn is made of preferably light material such as light metal profiles and bars and plastic materials.
Booth 1 is a safety shelter booth preferably for housing and sheltering equipment comprising equipment such as instruments, apparatii, devices and the like, used for telephone services, energy distribution, and general public services, with the booth being transportable and capable of being assembled from a plurality of modular parts, the assembling being carried out either in a manufacturing plant or in situ, namely in the location wherein the booth is to be installed. Booth 1 comprises a pair of sides 2 and 2', wherein one or, preferably both, sides 2, 2', are provided with an opening defined by a periphery 3 extending in all the corresponding side 2, 2'. While FIG. 1 shows only one open side 2, both sides 2, 2' including the opening defined by reference 3 in FIG. 1 are shown in the cross-section of FIG. 3. In any event, opening defined by 3 may be provided only in one side or in both sides of the booth.
An interior 5 is defined by end walls 7, sides 2, 2', a floor 9 and a roof 6, the interior being provided with the necessary means for mounting equipment 14 (FIG. 3) and permitting the installation and connection thereof. The interior of booth 1 is also provided with a plurality of bars 4 adjacent the opening of the sides of the booth, the bars forming a barrier for preventing any person from removing any part of equipment 14 but the bars are spaced apart in an extent enough for permitting the servicing of the equipment by leaving spaces enough for passing the hands and arms of the service personnel without the need of entering the interior 5 of booth 1. Bars 4 are preferably removably mounted in the interior of the booth by any mounting means and locked in place also by any conventional locking means.
The roof of the booth may extend at one side or at both sides of the booth forming eaves 6a, 6b def fined over the opening at a corresponding side 2, 2'. Eaves 6a, 6b, however, may be independent of the roof and independent structures may be fixed at corresponding sides 2, 2', for construing eaves 6a, 6b. Eaves 6a, 6b provides convenient shelter for the servicing personnel when manipulating the equipment, with the personnel and the equipment being protected from the weather conditions.
End walls~7 are useful for the mounting of any accessory necessary for the operation of the equipment in _ the booth, these accessories being one or two air conditioning apparatus 8, for example. Connection panels, venting means etc., may also be provided in walls 7. In phantom lines also a pair of lights is shown in the corners of walls 7 and sides 2, 2'.

Open sides 2, 2' are provided with door means comprising door panels 11 which are removably mounted in the corresponding opening and are capable of being removed from the opening for providing access to the booth interior and capable of being mounted and locked in the opening for closing the booth, thus preventing any access to the booth.
Panels 11 are removably mounted in the openings by means of mounting means comprising a plurality flanges transversely extending from a side, preferably a bottom side as illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, of the opening and towards the opening for retaining the door panels as shown in FIG.
2. The retaining flanges corresponding to the wings of corresponding U-shaped bars 10, with a corresponding edge of a door panel being received within the U shape.
Each door panel 11 may be provided with handle means for handling the panels during removal and mounting thereof, the handle means preferably comprising one handle 13, or preferably two handles 13, in each door panel 11.
When each door panel ~1 is mounted with a bottom edge thereof within U-shaped bar 10, an upper edge of the door panel is locked in position by means of locking means, preferably at least one lock 12 arranged at a side of the opening opposite mounting profiled bars 10.
While a plurality of door panels 11 that are mounted within a plurality of U-shape bars have been illustrated in the floor 9, it will be obvious for any g person skilled in the art that only one door panel may be provided for closing opening 3. In like manner, U bars 10 may be provided at any side of the open side 2, 2', in which event lock 12 will be preferably provided at an opposite side of the opening.
The walls and sides of the booth may be manufactured of any appropriate material that may be necessary for protecting and sheltering equipment 14 which equipment is generally a very sensitive equipment comprising electronics and other instruments that must be isolated enough from any weather condition, vandalism, cattle and general animals action, etc.
While preferred embodiments of the present invention have been illustrated and described, it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made therein without departing from the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims. ' '
