Abstract

A modular building system including: assembled modules, where the modules provide framing for a structure; panels, where the panels are implemented within the modules to create a building structure; fixed hinges, where the fixed hinges are attached along the edges of the modules; and a series of hinge connectors throughout the structure, where the series of hinge connectors provide a mechanism for attachment of the modules to each other. The framework may include metal channels to adjoin the components of the framework. Each module may include a frame, an inner surface, an outer surface, insulation within the frame and a spacer between the inner surface and the outer surface.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A modular building system comprising:
 a. a framework, where the framework provides framing for a structure and said framework includes a series of modular assemblies containing modules;   b. panels, where the panels are implemented within the modules to create a building structure;   c. a dome, where the dome includes modular assemblies;   d. a dome support framing, where the dome support framing includes a series of modular assemblies; and   e. fixed hinges, where the fixed hinges are attached along edges of the modules and the fixed hinges enable the connection of the modular assemblies, further where each of fixed hinge includes square openings positioned in the center of each fixed hinge.   
     
     
         2 . The modular building system according to  claim 1 , where the framework includes metal channels used to adjoin the members of the frame. 
     
     
         3 . The modular building system according to  claim 2 , each of the modules includes an inner surface, an outer surface, insulation within the framework and a spacer between the inner surface and the outer surface. 
     
     
         4 . (canceled) 
     
     
         5 . The modular building system according to  claim 1 , where each of the fixed hinge includes a series of holes along a top edge and a series of holes along a bottom edge. 
     
     
         6 . The modular building system according to  claim 5 , where each corner of each of the fixed hinge is chamfered. 
     
     
         7 . (canceled) 
     
     
         8 . The modular building system according to  claim 1 , wherein the modular building system includes two specifically designed dome shapes. 
     
     
         9 . The modular building system according to  claim 1 , wherein panels are glass.
