RAPID DEPLOYMENT MODULAR STRUCTURES
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to rapid deployment modular structures and, in
particular, to the sealing of various components of the modules used to create the
rapid deployment structures.
Background Art
International Patent Application No. (Published under No.
WO2011/120075) discloses a module having a pitched roof, a floor, four hinged
columns arranged at the corners of the module, two side walls and two end walls.
Each of the walls is able to be pivoted from a stowed substantially horizontal position
to a deployed substantially vertical position.
The creation of such modules, and structures formed using the modules, requires that
in order the structures be waterproof, there be various seals created. One form of seal
is a seal required at the location of the hinges of the columns. Another type of seal is
the seal between the walls and the columns, and the third type of seal is the seal
between adjacent modules in a multi-module structure.
Genesis of the Invention
The genesis of the present invention is a desire to improve such rapid deployment
structures including the seals thereof and preferably also the columns thereof and the
alignment of adjacent modules. In particular, it is desired to improve the overall
rigidity of such structures.
Summary of the Invention
In accordance with a first aspect of the present invention there is disclosed a housing
module erectable from a substantially flat transport configuration to an erected use
configuration, said module comprising:
a floor defining a rectangular floor area having four corners;
a roof having a like rectangular area;
four columns located one adjacent each of said corners, each of said columns
5302K-D2-NZ
having an upper end hingedly connected to said roof, a lower end hingedly connected
to said floor, and a substantially central hinge interconnecting said upper and lower
ends, said columns being movable between a folded transport position in which said
roof is lowered and is adjacent said floor, and an erected support position in which
said columns support said roof;
two end walls each pivotally connected to said floor at a lower edge, between
a corresponding pair of said columns which are closer to each other, and pivotable
between a transport position adjacent said floor and an erect position between said
erected closer pair of columns; and
at least one side wall each pivotably connected to said floor at a lower edge
and to said roof at an upper edge, having a substantially centrally located line of pivot,
extending between a corresponding pair of said columns which are further from each
other, and being pivotable between a transport position adjacent said floor and an
erect position between said erected further pair of columns;
wherein a weatherproof and insulating seal is provided firstly between each
vertical edge of both each said side wall and said end walls and the adjacent erect
column, and secondly along said centrally located line of pivot of each said side wall.

Detailed Description
As seen in the drawings, in Fig. 1 a module 1 is illustrated having a pitched roof 2 and
a base 3. The roof 2 is supported by four columns 4. As seen in Fig. 2, if desired, two
side walls 5 can be provided (only one of which is illustrated). Each of the side walls
is formed in two pieces. Each piece is connected between a corresponding pair of
columns 4. The lower piece is pivoted to the base 3 and the upper piece is pivoted to
the roof 2. The two pieces of the side walls 5 meet at a horizontal line 6. Two end
walls 7 can be provided (only one of which is illustrated in Fig. 2). The side walls 5
and end walls 7 are not load bearing since all the vertical load of the roof 2 (and any
upper storeys) is carried by the columns 4.
As seen in Figs. 3 to 5, each of the columns 4 has a top portion 41, a middle portion
42 and a base portion 43. Between the base portion 43 and the middle portion 42 is a
hinge 45. A similar hinge 44 is provided at the top of the top portion 41 and connects
the top of the column 4 to the pitched roof 2. The hinges 44 and 45 are required only
5302K-D2-NZ
to pivot through 90 . However, between the top portion 41 and the middle portion 42
is a hinge 46 which is required to pivot through 180 .
Turning now to Fig. 6, illustrated therein is a three storey structure 10 in the process
of deployment. The columns 4 of the upper storey are fully deployed, the columns 4
of the middle storey are in the process of being deployed, and the columns 4 of the
lower storey are in the fully stowed position. The upper module 11 is illustrated with
side and end walls 5, 7 whilst the middle module 12 is illustrated without side or end
walls, and the lower module 13 is illustrated with only end walls 7.
In Fig. 3 the structure 10 is shown being deployed by means of a crane (not
illustrated) which is lifting the upper module 11. It will be appreciated by those
skilled in the building arts that more than three levels can be provided, however, most
building regulations require the provision of a lift or elevator (not illustrated) if a
building has more than three storeys. So for this reason there is not much demand for
rapid deployment structures having in excess of three storeys.
Turning now to Figs. 7 and 9, it will be seen that the hinge 46 has an internal SOSS
(Trade Mark) hinge which is located within the hollow top and middle portions 41
and 42. The middle portion 42 has a rectangular internal rim 15 which is surrounded
by a shelf 16 whereas the top portion 41 has an exterior rectangular rim 17 which has
an interior shelf 18.
It will be apparent that the rim 15 mates with the shelf 18 and the shelf 16 mates with
the rim 17 so as to form a complementary inter-engaging arrangement which enables
the column portions 41 and 42 to be moved into the aligned positions illustrated in
Figs. 11 and 12.
Turning now Figs. 8 and 10, it will be seen that the hinge 45 which interconnects the
middle portion 42 and base portion 43 of the columns 4 is similarly provided with
rims 15, 17 and shelves 16, 18. As seen in Figs. 9 to 12, the column portions can be
secured in the aligned position by means of a long screw 22, and preferably also two
short screws 21.
5302K-D2-NZ
It will be apparent that the overlapping relationship between the rims 15, 17 and the
shelves 16, 18 provides an adequate seal in which gravity prevents moisture
penetrating into the interior of the hollow column 4.
Turning now to Figs. 13 to 16, if a column 4 is provided with a conventional hinge
146 as illustrated in Fig. 13, then two such columns cannot be edge abutted because,
as illustrated in Fig. 14, the protruding hinges 146 prevent the columns being edge
abutted. For this reason, it is necessary, as illustrated in Fig. 15, to provide a hinge
which is entirely contained within the column 4 so that when the column portions are
straightened as illustrated in Fig .16, the hinge is entirely contained within the
column. This produces the entirely self-contained arrangement as illustrated in Figs.
7 to 12.
Turning now to Figs. 17 to 20, it will be seen that after the columns 4 are straightened,
the end walls 7 are raised as indicated by arrows A from a substantially horizontal
stowed position to a substantially vertical deployed position.
As illustrated in Fig. 18, the right hand end of the end walls 7 is provided with a
hollow resilient seal 24 extruded from rubber or other elastomeric material. The seal
24 is provided with feet 25 (Fig. 19) which are retained in a groove 26 formed in an
aluminium extrusion 27. The aluminium extrusion 27 also contains a second groove
28 within which is located a wiper blade seal 29. It will be apparent that the
aluminium extrusion 27 can be pushed onto the end edges of the end walls 7. In
addition, the column 4 is provided with a kinked abutment strip 48. It will be
apparent from Fig. 17 that at the hinge 46 there is an abutting, or near abutting, joint
between the two ends of the abutment strips 48.
It will be apparent from Figs. 18 and 20 that as each end wall 7 is raised into the
deployed position by moving in the direction of arrow A, the hollow seal 24 comes
into contact with both the column 4 and its abutment strip 48 and thereby resiliently
deforms to form two seals as illustrated in Figs. 18 and 20. Those two seals also seal
the abutting, or near abutting, ends of the abutment strip 48. Simultaneously, the
5302K-D2-NZ
wiper blade seal 29 also makes contact with the column 4 at the conclusion of the
pivoting of the end walls 7, thereby forming a third seal which creates a stagnant air
seal between the end walls 7 and the column 4, the edges of which are bounded by the
two seals 24, 29. In this way, an effective seal is made between the end walls 7 and
the columns 4 which is both weatherproof and insulating. Since the side walls 5 are
directly connected with the columns 4, there is a permanent and fixed weatherproof
and insulating seal between the side wall pieces and the corresponding panel portions.
However, as illustrated in Fig. 21, it is necessary to seal the side walls 5 along the
horizontal line 6. This is achieved by complementary aluminium extrusions 36 and
37 which push onto the panels of the side walls 5. The extrusion 37 carries two strip
seals 38 of semi-circular transverse cross-section. These are compressed against the
crest of the extrusion 36 to form a stagnant air insulative seal when the side wall 5 is
vertical. In addition, where the side walls 5 pivot relative to the roof 2 and the base
3, the hinge 40 incorporates two push on extrusions 58 and 59. The extrusion 58
includes one of the strip seals 38. When the hinge 40 is in the closed position, which
corresponds to the side wall 5 being vertical, the seal 38 is compressed against the
extrusion 59.
Turning now to Fig. 22, it will be seen that at any given level or storey, two modules 1
can be abutted so as to form a larger room. Therefore it is necessary to provide
sealing to waterproof the join between the module 1 and also provide a degree of
insulation. Preferably this is achieved by means of pairs of longitudinal seals 31, 32
which are arranged to lie alongside each other when the two modules 1 are abutted.
As seen in Fig. 23, each of the columns 4 is preferably provided with two seals 34, 35
which are transversely displaced on the middle portion 42 relative to the top portion
41. This equal and opposite transverse displacement of the seals 34, 35 has two
effects. First of all, when opposing columns 4 are abutted as indicated in Fig. 24, the
seals 34 of the top portion 41 lie alongside each other and the seals 35 of the middle
portion 42 also lie alongside each other, thereby forming a double seal which is not
only waterproof but which includes a stagnant air insulative barrier. In addition, as
foreshadowed in Fig. 23, and illustrated in Fig. 25, when the top portion 41 and
middle portion 42 lie alongside each other in the column stowed position, then the
5302K-D2-NZ
seals 34 and 35 lie alongside each other and therefore do not come into contact with
each other. If the seals 34 and 35 were aligned, then they would lie one above the
other with the column 4 in the stowed position. This would have two consequences.
Firstly, the seals would tend to flatten and lose their resilience if stowed like that for
long periods of time. Secondly, the top portion 41 and middle portion 42 would not
be truly parallel in the stowed position.
Turning now to Figs. 26 and 27, when two modules 1 are end abutted as illustrated
schematically in Fig. 21, it is desirable to provide a locating mechanism which
preferably takes the form of a wedge 50 located on each of the columns 4 as
illustrated in Figs. 26 and 27. Each wedge 50 has a ramp 21 having an inclined
surface. As the two modules approach each other as seen in Fig. 22, the columns 4
are only roughly aligned by the crane operator using the crane to move one of the
modules 1 relative to the other of the modules 1. However, as the columns 4
approach each other, the ramps 51 engage and slide relative to each other, thereby
automatically aligning and centring the modules 1 into the finished configuration
illustrated in Fig. 28.
Once the two modules 1 are aligned and abutted as illustrated in Fig. 28, it is then
necessary to secure the abutting columns 4. As indicated in Figs. 29 and 30, this may
be accomplished by means of several threaded fasteners 53 each with a corresponding
nut 54. Alternatively, as illustrated in Fig. 31, two toggle latches 56 can be used to
secure the adjacent columns 4.
As seen in Fig. 32, a two storey module 60 can be provided with an upper module 61
and a lower module 62. The lower module 62 is preferably provided with four
upstands 63 which are of a height sufficient to project above the pitched roof 2 when
both modules 61, 62 are in the stowed position. This enables two of the two storey
modules 60 to be stacked one on top of the other without the base 3 of the upper
module 60 coming into contact with the pitched roof 2 of the lower module 60. A
similar arrangement can be provided for two of the three storey structures 10 of Fig. 6.
5302K-D2-NZ
Also illustrated in the enlarged views of Fig. 32 is the location of the hinges 44, 45
and 46 in both their bent open positions and their straight closed positions. In the
straight closed positions the hinges and columns are locked by the fasteners 21, 22.
As a consequence, both the columns and the modules are braced and made more rigid.
Finally, as illustrated in Fig. 33, a three storey structure 70 can be created using two of
the structures 10 of Fig. 6. The absence or presence of side walls 5 and end walls 7
can be used to create a structure 70 of any desired configuration, for example
including verandas 71. The abovementioned bracing effect achieved by the fasteners
21, 22 is particularly important for modules having a veranda 71 since the normal
cross bracing effect produced by the walls is absent.
The foregoing describes only some embodiments of the present invention and
modifications, obvious to those skilled in the rapid deployment arts, can be made
thereto without departing from the scope of the present invention.
For example, it will be apparent that the columns 4 can be inverted so that instead of
the portions 41 and 43 being hinged to a roof member 2 and a floor member 3
respectively, the column as illustrated in Figs. 3 to 5 can be inverted so that the
portions 41 and 43 are hinged to a floor member 3 and a roof member 2 respectively.
The term “comprising” (and its grammatical variations) as used herein is used in the
inclusive sense of “including” or “having” and not in the exclusive sense of
“consisting only of”.
