Abstract

Disclosed herein are systems and methods for a rapid and secure temporary screen room enclosure. According to an aspect, a temporary screen room enclosure for use with an awning is affixed to a structure, wherein the temporary screen room enclosure comprises a side panel having edges for creating an interior space. Further, a first clip attached to a corner of the enclosure for affixing the corner to a first receiving coupling. Additionally, a second clip attached to a second corner for affixing the second corner to a second receiving coupling. Further, an elastic cord with an elastic cord first end attached to the first corner and an elastic cord second end attached to the second corner. Further, the first clip and the second clip are configured to be affixed to opposing ends of an awning.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed: 
     
         1 . A temporary screen room enclosure for use with an awning affixed to a structure, wherein the temporary screen room enclosure comprises:
 a side panel having a top edge, a bottom edge, a first side edge and a second side edge for creating an interior space;   a first clip attached to a first intersection of the top edge and the first side edge for affixing the first intersection to a first receiving coupling;   a second clip attached to a second intersection of the top edge and the second side edge for affixing the second intersection to a second receiving coupling; and   an elastic cord with an elastic cord first end attached to the first intersection and an elastic cord second end attached to the second intersection; and   wherein the first clip and the second clip are configured to be affixed to opposing ends of an awning.   
     
     
         2 . The temporary screen room enclosure of  claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of sealed pockets affixed to the bottom edge causing the side panel to complete a seal of the interior space, wherein the sealed pockets are filled with at least one of water, sand, and rock. 
     
     
         3 . The temporary screen room enclosure of  claim 1 , further comprising a padding affixed to the top edge extending from at least a portion of the first intersection to the second intersection, wherein the padding extends partially towards the bottom edge. 
     
     
         4 . The temporary screen room enclosure of  claim 3 , wherein the padding affixed to the top edge from the first intersection to the second intersection is sewn forming a plurality of corner areas in the top edge, wherein the corner areas are spaced apart from the first intersection and the second intersection. 
     
     
         5 . The temporary screen room enclosure of  claim 4 , wherein the padding affixed to the top edge is reinforced with at least a second layer of padding. 
     
     
         6 . The temporary screen room enclosure of  claim 4 , wherein the plurality of corner areas spaced apart from the first side edge, the second edge, and from each other, wherein the corner areas are comprised of a moldable synthetic or semi-synthetic polymer. 
     
     
         7 . The temporary screen room enclosure of  claim 1 , wherein the clips are configured to be coupled to a receiving coupling affixed to a permanent structure, wherein the permanent structure provides elevated support for the awning. 
     
     
         8 . The temporary screen room enclosure of  claim 1 , wherein the clips are configured to be coupled to a receiving coupling affixed to a structure other than the permanent structure providing the support for the awning. 
     
     
         9 . The temporary screen room enclosure of  claim 1 , wherein the bottom edge is secured by at least one of snaps, clips, or hook and loop fastener. 
     
     
         10 . The temporary screen room enclosure of  claim 1 , further comprising a sealing material configured to be extendable from the first intersection to the second intersection immediately adjacent to a permanent structure, wherein the permanent structure provides elevated support for the awning. 
     
     
         11 . A method for creating a temporary screen room enclosure for use with an awning affixed to a structure, wherein the creating the temporary screen room enclosure comprises:
 creating an interior space using a side panel having a top edge, a bottom edge, a first side edge and a second side edge;   affixing, to a first receiving coupling, a first clip, wherein the first clip is attached to a first intersection of the top edge and the first side edge;   affixing, to a second receiving coupling, a second clip, wherein the second clip is attached to a second intersection of the top edge and the second side edge; and   securing, to an awning, the temporary screen enclosure, wherein the temporary screen enclosure comprises an elastic cord with an elastic cord first end affixed to the first intersection and an elastic cord second end affixed to the second intersection; and   coupling the first clip and the second clip to opposing ends of an awning.   
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 13 , further comprising weighting the temporary screen enclosure with a lead core rope sewn into the bottom edge, the lead core rope extending at least a portion from the first side edge to the second side edge. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 11 , further comprising providing a protective padding affixed to the top edge extending from at least a portion of the first intersection to the second intersection, wherein the padding extends partially towards the bottom edge. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 13 , further comprising forming a plurality of corner areas in the top edge with the protective padding affixed to the top edge, wherein the corner areas are spaced apart from the first intersection to the second intersection is sewn. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 14 , further comprising reinforcing the padding affixed to the top edge with at least a second layer of padding. 
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 14 , wherein the plurality of corner areas are spaced apart from the first side edge, the second side edge and from each other, wherein the corner areas are comprised of a moldable synthetic or semi-synthetic polymer. 
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 11 , further comprising coupling the clips to a receiving coupling affixed to a permanent structure, wherein the permanent structure provides elevated support for the awning. 
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 11 , further comprising coupling the clips to a receiving coupling affixed to a structure other than the permanent structure providing the support for the awning. 
     
     
         19 . The method of  claim 11 , further comprising securing the bottom edge by at least one of snaps, clips, or hook and loop fastener. 
     
     
         20 . The method of  claim 11 , further comprising sealing the interior space using a material configured to be extendable from the first intersection to the second intersection immediately adjacent to a permanent structure, wherein the permanent structure provides elevated support for the awning.
