It contacts the front wall E along the vertical edge via a sealing member 28, and is hingedly attached to the ceiling C of the basic body at a location indicated by the reference numeral 29 (see FIG. 7). The panel 18 is therefore capable of being rotated from the vertical position shown in FIG. 5 to the inclined position of use shown in FIGS. 2 and 7. In order to seal the hinge 29, an elastic sheet 10-layer member 30 is provided so as to surround the outer periphery of the ceiling C in the form of a band. This sealing member is fixed to the outer periphery of the ceiling by means such as screws. This panel, like others, consists of plates lined on the outside, with an insulating layer between them, e.g. of a foamed plastic material, or of a one-piece Zandwich construction or a foamed wood composite. It is formed by a known method.

The rectangular panel 18 has three outer parts (the fourth side part is where the above-mentioned hinge 29 is provided),
A joining member 35 with wings or flanges 36 is provided. This joining member is fixed by embedding a flange in the panel material or the like. The joining member has a flat cantilevered side or flank 37 with a wing or flange 38 at the tip. This flange 38 is bent towards the panel and forms an acute angle with the side or flank 37 and has an enlarged portion 39 and a web 40 at the tip. A groove 41 is formed in the attachment portion of the wing-shaped portion or flange 38 to promote elastic warpage of the flange 38.

The second panel visible from left to right in Fig. 5 is the panel that constitutes the floor 19 of appendages The mating or double joint 38A is connected to the slightly recessed end 39 of the bed B (see FIG. 4). This floor 19 has joining members 3 of the panel 18 on its two parallel side edges.
It is provided with a joining member 35A that is substantially similar to No. 5. In order to accurately align the floor 19, an inclined surface 500 is attached to the lower surface of the floor, which is the end that contacts the inner upper corner 501 of the hollow elongated shaft members 5B, 7B.

A third panel, designated 17, is formed in the same manner as the previously described panels, with double hinges 5 at the outer edge of panel 19.

This joining member has an angled side or flank 3811 facing the panels 18 and 19 described above (see FIG. 5).

The panel 16 is attached to the upright body or column 2;
This constitutes the front walls of the appendages X and Y (see Figure 2). The panel 16 pivots about a vertical axis 60 provided at its longitudinal end. In order to seal the ends indicated by 61, elastic sealing pieces 62 are attached to the front wall E of the basic body and to the uprights or columns. On the remaining two sides, namely the top, bottom and side edges, the panel 16 is also fitted with joining members 35C, D, which are visually very similar to those described with respect to the panels described above. More specifically, in the position shown in FIG. 3, the joining member 35C has a groove 70 vertically provided in its upper portion with 71 elastic seal pieces.

Laterally to the groove 70, the sides or flanks 72 of the joining member 35C are provided with an outwardly sloping fruit or 7 generally identical to the 7 flange or wing 38 of the aforementioned joining member.

and 73 are snapped together by elastic deformation.

Connection member provided on the longitudinal piece of panel 16 and side panel 1
A snap fit also takes place on the longitudinal sides (not shown) between the corresponding joining members provided at 7.

To seal these locations, a gasket 80 is inserted into the joint to provide a sealing edge and labyrinth seal.

The lower joining member 35D of the panel 16 is connected to the pace panel 1.
A downward cantilevered wing or flange 101 substantially parallel to the panel 16 and the joining member 35A of the panel 19 are adapted to snap-fit with the joining member 35A of the panel 19.
It has a slanted wing-like portion, that is, a 7 flange 102, with an enlarged end 103 facing the enlarged end of 5A.

The front wall 16 thus snaps with its three free pieces into the ceilings 18 and 9 of the additions X, Y, the sides of the floor 19 and the longitudinal sides of the outer wall 17. This 14-outer wall snaps into a mating member extending along the corresponding edge of the ceiling 18 along line 120 in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 2, this residential unit has a third addition, designated Z, formed by a structural member (panel) superimposed on and integral with the first basic body H. This appendage Z consists of two identical substantially triangular heads 200 and two ramps 201, 202.

The ramp 201 (see FIG. 6) is also constructed from laminated panels and is connected to the ceiling C of the basic body by double hinges 203. The double hinged end arms 205 and 206 are fixed to the slope and the ceiling C, respectively, by screws, pins, etc. Fixation to the ceiling is performed by a bracket 207 whose tip is embedded in the ceiling material.

A rotating pin 204 enters a groove or seat 210 formed in the ramp, which has a similar groove 211 near the end to prevent rotation of the other when the ramp is raised. A bottle 203 can be inserted therein. Inclined part 2
01 is a free piece (see FIG. 7) whose lower part is cut off so as to fit into the groove-shaped upper joint member 220. An elastic linear socket having a triangular cross section is attached to this joining member. In the folded state (see FIG. 6), the other inclined part has an inclined part 201 and two triangular heads 200.
placed between. It is clear that the triangular heads have a height that allows them to be accommodated flush without overlapping each other.

The inclined portion 202 is attached to the end of a bracket 231 embedded in the ceiling C and protruding from the ceiling C by a hinge at a location indicated by the reference numeral 230.

The hinge 230 is provided in the groove 232 of the slope and is located above the upper end of the seal band 30.

The sides or flanks 30A of the sealing band have approximately the same thickness as the sides of the triangular head 200, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, and provide a space for these two triangular heads to fit. ie, space.

To connect the ramps 201 and 202, a lever 3 is pivoted on the ramp 202 at a point indicated by 312.
11, the pin 310 is connected to the inclined portion 20 so that it can be operated by the

This pin 310 is adapted to enter a matching receptacle 315 formed on the other inclined portion 201 .

As shown schematically by dashed line 404 in FIG.
Joining members 35A, B described with reference to the figures.

Joining members of type C and D are provided along each parallel edge of both oblique portions. That is, these joining members are adapted to snap together with similar joining members provided on opposite edges of other panels. These joining members are snap-connected to the joining members provided on the Z hypotenuse of the triangular head 200. The triangular head is
It is attached to the ceiling C with a hinge at the bottom.

FIG. 9 shows an enlarged view of the connection between the front wall 16 and the floor 19, which is the part already shown in FIG. 17 to the lower right of FIG.

This Figure 9 shows the metal (
For example, it is meant to show how snap connections are made between joining members made of aluminum. As shown in FIG. 9, the joining member 35A includes a wing-shaped portion or flange 37A extending from the end of the floor 19. As shown in FIG. A groove 41A is formed in the 7 flange 37A adjacent to an edge that forms an acute angle with the flange 38A.

The free end of the sloping side or flange 38A is provided with an enlarged portion 39A with an arcuate surface 79;
Adjacent to this arched surface is a step S and a projecting web or piece. The supporting wall 16 is attached to the joining member 35D.
A wing or flange 101 is provided as an extension of the flange, which flange is followed by an angled wing or edge at an acute angle. The tip of this edge is provided with an enlarged section 18- with an arched surface 79A corresponding to the arched surface 79, a step T and a web or piece 103A.

Each of the joining members is provided with a protrusion or wedge-shaped web 500. This wedge-shaped web allows the sloped sides or flanks 38 to form when the two joining members are engaged.
The inclination or deflection of A is constrained, and an elastic gasket (P, 0), which is inserted into each joint member before the joint members engage and fits snugly against the joint surface due to its inherent elasticity when the joint members engage, is held in place. In engagement between the two joining members, arcuate surfaces 79A and 79 interlock each wing or flank 38A.

202 is elastically deformed to the position of the stepped portion S, and the two inclined wing-like portions or flanges 38A, 02 are forcibly snapped so as to overlap with each other, and the panels are joined together by firmly joining both liquid joining members. . The respective joining members described above with respect to the various panels are based on similar principles.

To further stabilize the structure in the assembled drawings, a finger 700 (9th
(see figure) can be used.

The fingers enter the opening lower 01 provided on the engaged joining members 35A and 35B. The rotation occurs in a plane perpendicular to the plane shown in FIG.

To assemble the additional body Z, first rotate the inclined part 201 counterclockwise and the inclined part 202 clockwise, engage the inclined part 201 in the raised groove part 220 of the inclined part 202, and then use the stopper 310 to rotate these parts. This is done by fastening the two ramps together. Next, the head is rotated around the horizontal rotation axis, and the head 20
The outer edge joining member of No. 0 is fitted along the side edges of both oblique portions. From the above, I think the assembly procedure for the side additions X and Y is clear, but to summarize, first rotate the ceiling 18 clockwise, then the floor 19 and the outer wall 17.
and the outer wall is further rotated counterclockwise to engage its upper joint member with the outer end joint member of the ceiling 18. Needless to say, the lateral extensions of the base on which the floor 19 rests have been previously extended to the maximum extended position. The two front parts 16 of the appendix are then rotated about the axis 60 to engage the joint members extending on three sides with the corresponding joint members on the ceiling 18, outer wall 17, and floor 19.

Although not shown, panels 16 and 17 are accommodated in the space or gap 15 during transportation of the basic body in reduced form.
, 18, 19 from moving, the hollow long-axis beam members 43B, 7B are formed with upward wing-like portions or flanges to house the outermost panel 18 and the inner panel in the space. Ensure that the sides or flanks that remain are provided.

In an extreme case, as shown in FIG. 10, the basic body is formed from a rectangular frame 900, and the opening 901 is formed, arranged, and connected as described above and shown in FIGS. 1 to 9. Various panels 902 can also be arranged. The only difference is that the base frame 903 has, for example, support legs 9 on both sides.
The point is that it has two arms 904 that rotate about a vertical axis 905 that is the same as the axis of 06. The foundation frame is a long shaft member 9 forming part of the floor 908 of the addition, indicated by thin lines 21- in the accompanying drawings.
It is equipped with 07.
