Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A safe room assembly, comprising:
 a room, having:
 a first sidewall and a second opposing sidewall; 
 a front wall and an opposing back wall; 
 wherein the first sidewall, the second sidewall, the front wall, and the back wall are integral with each other and form an enclosed area; 
 a wall structure disposed within the enclosed area and attached to the first sidewall; 
 a gap between the wall structure and the first sidewall; and 
 a conduit configured to extend through the first wall, extend within the gap, and pass through the wall structure; 
 a locking mechanism completely disposed within the first sidewall; and 
 an entrance providing access to the enclosed area; and 
   a platform, having:
 a top surface; and 
 an anchor partially disposed within a thickness of the platform and extending through the top surface; 
   wherein the locking mechanism is configured to engage and secure to the anchor.   
     
     
         2 . The assembly of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 an electrical system configured to provide electricity from a power source positioned outside the room to an electrical device positioned within the enclosed area.   
     
     
         3 . The assembly of  claim 2 , the electrical system, having:
 an electrical outlet box attached to an inner surface of the front wall; and   an electrical conductor disposed within the front wall and extending from the roof.   
     
     
         4 . The assembly of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 an electrical conductor disposed within a solid wall of the room.   
     
     
         5 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the first sidewall tapers. 
     
     
         6 . The assembly of  claim 5 , wherein the first sidewall gradually tapers an entire length of the first sidewall. 
     
     
         7 . The assembly of  claim 6 , wherein the tapering is linear with a slope greater than about 2.5 degrees. 
     
     
         8 . The assembly of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a wall structure disposed within the enclosed area and attached to the first sidewall.   
     
     
         9 . (canceled) 
     
     
         10 . (canceled) 
     
     
         11 . The assembly of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 an opening passing through a thickness of a roof.   
     
     
         12 . The assembly of  claim 1 , the locking mechanism comprising:
 a housing configured to receive and interlock with the anchor.   
     
     
         13 . The assembly of  claim 12 , wherein the housing is completely disposed within the first sidewall. 
     
     
         14 . The assembly of  claim 12 , the locking mechanism further comprising:
 a first passage extending partially through a thickness of the first sidewall and in communication with the housing;   a second passage extending partially through the thickness of the first sidewall and in communication with the housing.   
     
     
         15 - 20 . (canceled)
