Novel Personal, Relocatable Protective Enclosure

Abstract

The application relates to a standalone portable protective enclosure that forms a complete envelope surrounding and protecting its contents from the extreme forces of nature and man. The invention can have other uses other than a protective enclosure and will not be out of place in a living room of a home. The invention pertains to a protective enclosure that is resistant to high velocity projectiles and massive blunt forces. More particularly, this invention relates to a protective enclosure that can be site assembled from matching parts and may be disassembled and relocated to different locations.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A protective enclosure comprised of:
 a. an enclosure top, enclosure bottom, and at least three enclosure side panels removably sealed together such that when constructed the enclosure top and enclosure bottom are substantially parallel and separated apart wherein at least one female interconnect opening equipped with a securable hatch is mounted in at least one of the enclosure top or enclosure bottom and at least one of the foregoing side panels;
 i. wherein the enclosure top, enclosure bottom, enclosure side panels, and securable hatches are constructed of a laminated cementitious composite sheet material; 
 ii. wherein at least one securable hatch is equipped with an air flow system; and 
   b. at least one externally exposed grounding eye mounted near a corner of the enclosure bottom.   
     
     
         2 . A protective enclosure of  claim 1  further comprising a translucent plastic panel sealed in its associated interconnect. 
     
     
         3 . A protective enclosure of  claim 1  further comprising a mechanism for pulling a cord to remove the securable hatch. 
     
     
         4 . A protective enclosure of  claim 1  further comprising a mechanism for turning a handle to remove the securable hatch. 
     
     
         5 . A protective enclosure of  claim 1  such that when it is installed and tethered from the exposed grounding eye to an earthen anchor point and subsequently exposed to a lateral force from the wind, the corner where the exposed grounding eye is installed between two adjoining side panels becomes aligned pointing into the wind.
