Slide-out room with pitched roof

Abstract

The present invention provides for a manufactured housing unit having a slide-out room and main living compartment both with a truss-less pitched roof and cathedral ceiling. The slide-out room extends from the main living compartment through a pentagonal opening in the side wall under a gabled dormer. The dormer roof and main living compartment roof are constructed without conventional roof trusses or ridge beams to provide the additional head room of a cathedral ceiling.

1 . A manufactured housing unit comprising:
 A main living compartment including a sidewall, a pitched roof and a gabled dormer extending from the pitched roof, the dormer having a truss-less pitched roof and cathedral ceiling, the sidewall having a pentagonal opening therein under the dormer; and   a slide-out room having a truss-less pitched roof and a cathedral ceiling, the slide-out room being adapted to extend and retract from the main living compartment through the pentagonal opening so that the pitched roof of the slide-out room slides under the cathedral ceiling of the dormer.   
   
   
       2 . The manufactured housing unit of  claim 1  wherein the slide-out room has an open interior end disposed within the main living compartment, the slide-out room includes a peripheral abutment plate mounted to the slide-out room around the open interior end for engagement with the sidewall of the main living compartment when the slide-out room is extended from the main living compartment.
