Abstract
The invention encompasses a mobile, expandable shelter intended to provide medium term housing to disaster victims. The invention minimizes moving parts so as to make the shelter more structurally sound and allows full deployment by two people in less than ten minutes without the use of a motor to supply hydraulic, pneumatic or electric assistance. This shelter will maximize space by offering the unique feature of side shells that slide over the base structure not out of the base structure.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A mobile, expandable, disaster shelter intended to offer medium term housing to victims of a disaster that minimizes moving parts so as to make the shelter more structurally sound and allows full deployment by two people in less than ten minutes without the use of a motor to supply hydraulic, pneumatic or electric assistance. This shelter will maximize space by offering the unique feature of side shells that slide over the base structure not out of the base structure. The shelter is comprised of: a) rigid floor panels that are connected by hinges to the base structure and; b) when lowered, the floor panels are locked into the base structure using swing arms and brackets that create one solid flat level floor and; c) two side shells that slide out over the base structure supported by the level floor and; d) construction using light weight materials will allow two men to deploy the shelter without the use of motorized assistance.
